EYE TALKS

Crooked.

In many cases the first result of
wearing compound lenses is a distort-
ed appearance of objects. A door or
window may appear wider at the top
than at the bottom. or vice versa. A
level floor may appear inclined up or
down. This is a perfectly natural re-
suit and is to be expected. 1t is a
positive evidence that the glasses are
correctly fitted. The eyes have been
tying for so long TO adapt them
selves TO a defective condition. that
normal vision seems strange and I'M
natural 1t only requires persever-
ence for a few days TO entirely over
come the difficulty. Objects gradual
" take on a natural appearance as
the eye becomes accustomed to the
new condition. We cannot expect TO
undo in a moment a defect which has
been growing for years. With a little
time and patience. however, there is
no focal defect OF the eyes which
cannot be entirely overcome with
lenses.

.PACkEY DELIVERS
JOLT TO BRITTON
Stockyards Boy Outpoints
Foe in Seven of Ten
Rounds.

Milwaukee, Wis, Dec. Sin a ten
round bout, featured by the absence
of clean, solid hitting. Packey McFar-

won the popular verdict over Jack
Britton. the idol of the north side fans
of Chicago, before the Queensberry A.
c. in the Auditorium.
In striking contrast to his usual ex-
hibitions. Mcfarland was wild and his
Judgment of distance was poor at
times. He hit with his open glove most
of the time and inflicted little damage
on his willing and worthy opponent.
Packey did not follow up seeming ad-
vantages in his usual manner and his
showing on the whole was disap-
pointment to the fans, some of whom
left the building as early as the eighth
round.
Britton put up a good fight against
his heavier and more clever opponent.
He landed several clean punches, but
the blows lacked force to even stagger
the south side Irishman. Jack tried
hard to land wild haymakers, but
Packey had little difficulty in stepping
out of range.
For a time during the afternoon 1t
looked as If the two battlers might not
swap punches. Considerable I'll feeling
cropped out when Britton stepped on
the scales and tipped the beam at 1876

San Francisco, Dec. 9.-with the
great lightweight championship battle
between Willie Ritchie of San Fran
cisco and Tommy Murphy of New York

lie of this city has come to the con-
clusion that the title holder will sure

odds are 2 TO /. with thousands of dol

and practically none to be wagered on
his sturdy little opponent.
All indications point to the length
ening of the price before the men en-
ter the ring at the Eighth street arena
on Wednesday evening. Richie seems
to have taken the town by storm, and
the Murphy booster. who were much
in evidence, apparently have all faded
away or been converted to the Richie
cause.
That the odds are false. is the opin-
ion of the old timers who have been
following the game closely for many
years. They are willing enough to adj
NIT that Murphy should be worth 10 to
on the short end, but al the same time
they are not throwing their money In
to wager upon his chances.
The wagering is still at even money
that the champion stops the challenger.

key weigh in, as the rules plainly state
that no fighter other than In the
heavyweight class must be ten pounds
heavier than his opponent. McFar-
lands uncertain weight naturally caus-
ed the commission to act.
Several arguments followed, in which
Danny Morgan. manager of Britton,
took part. and Mcfarland threatened
to call off the fight. Morgan insisted
on taking Packey's weight, although
the principals had been matched to box
at catchweights. The more Morgan in
sisted knowing Packey's exact
poundage the more stubborn McFar-

prevailing wind during the month was
from the south and We had two
thunderstorms, one on the llth and
the other on the 14th of May. The

clear, cloudy on p days and partly
cloudy on one day. The mean tenn
perature was 55.53 degrees as COM
pared with 59.15 degrees for the

to forget as did their leader that;
they were playing for an audience.
which in itself is proof of the good
of Miss Fischer's system.
Miss Harriet Hetland gave "Polly-
Of the Circus" dramatic reading in
four parts, at Thursday afternoons
session which was much enjoyed and
another similar hour was provided by
Mrs. Dorothy Kurtzman Wednesday.
Taken all in all, the week was a,
success, both financially and from the
point of instruction and entertain
ment. Something over a hundred dol
lars above the guarantee fund was
realized from the sale of the tickets
and some Of this will remain as a
fund to start something similar for
next year. The speakers declared
that the interest shown in New Ulm
as manifested by attendance was
greater than anywhere else on the
circuit. A general harmony prevail
ed and all classes and divisions Of
population took advantage Of the op~.
portunity to see and hear something
out of the ordinary. The afternoon
audiences gradually increased from
day to day, proving that the public
was interested and judged what they
were getting as being worth while
going to hear. No doubt University
Week will prove a permanent feature
here until something still more ad-
vanced comes to take its place. Much
credit is due to all who worked for
the success of the effort, especially
to the members of the reception COM
mittee and to Rev. Holm for his un-
failing energy in making arrange
ments. Credit should also be given
to those who put aside their own
concerns for the week and attended
the lectures often for it could not
have been a success without steady
boosters who proved the worth of
the project by taking advantage Of
it and encouraging others to do so.
