strength with gracious justice and with
happy welfare that will touch all
alike with deep contentment! We are
debtors to those 30 crowded years;
they have made us heirs to a mighty
heritage
But do we deem the nation complete
and finished? These venerable men
crowding here to this famous field have
set us a great example of cevotion and
utter sacrifice. They were willing to
die that the people might live. But their
task is done. Their day is turned into
evening They look to us to perfect
what they established. Their work Is
handed on to us, to be done in another
way but not in another spirit. Our
day is not over; 1t is upon .us in full
tide
Have affairs paused? Does the nation
stand still? Is what the 80 years have
wrought since those days of battle fin
ished, rounded out and completed? Here
Is great people, great with every force
that has ever beaten in the lfebood of
mankind. And it is secure. There Is no
one within its borders, there Is no power
among the nations of the earth to make
us afraid. But has 1t yet squared itself
with its own great standards set up at

American to discontinue waving the
flag. The American had many sympa-

Rests in New York

New York. July president Wilson
spent three hours in New York tonight
resting at the University club after
thrilling all-day journey by special
train from Washington by way of Get
tysburg, where he stopped for an hour
to make a brief speech to the civil war
veterans.
The President was raced across
Pennsylvania and New Jersey at a
speed sometimes approaching 10 miles
an hour. There was no apparent need
for haste, as the Presidents schedule
did not call for his arrival in New York
until s:13 tonight, but between Gettys-
burg and Philadelphia the special train
struck up top speed and before the
President realized 1t he was only a
few miles from the Quaker City. He
sent in word to have the engineer slow
down and his wishes were needed
Later, however, orders were given to
make New York by o'clock. The rail-
road officials cleared the way between
Philadelphia and New York and sent
the special over a freight track with
another burst of speed.
Only Stops for Water
The only stops made were for water
At some of the stations the President
leaned down from the observation plat
form and shook hands with a great
number of the crowds who greeted his
train. Most of the distance, however,
the special sped by scores of stations

LAGRANGE. Ga, July 4-(Special)
Umpire Poole. the newly appointed
umpire of observation-disclosures league
officiated at the game In LaGrange
today and there wasn't the slight
est disturbance of any kind. No
kicks on his decision were regis
tered by either side.
In view of the fact that the game
was SO close and so hotly contest
ed and finally ended in a tie. The
fact that. he gave satisfaction and
after recent trouble over umpires,
is really remarkable and tribute
to his fairness and ability. More
than 1000 people witnessed the
game.

where cxpectant crowds waited In vain
to catch glimpse of the President
Just what the reason for the flying
trip was, could not be learned. as i'm
mediately on his arrival in New York
the President merely took a long au-
tomobile ride on Riverside drive to get
breath of air. as the days ride was
through sweltering heat and dust Few
people knew him as he motored along
the driveway.
The President dined at the Univer-
sity club and remained there until time
to catch the II 10 train for Cornish N
H.. where he will join his family to-
morrow.
Il An hour before train time President
Wilson left the club and walked down
Fifth avenue. Many promenaders were
out but apparently no one recognized
HIM He stopped at the club only a
short while on his return, leaving for
the Grand Central terminal, where he
boarded the train at 1890 O'Clock, near
ly three quarters of an hour before the
express was scheduled to leave, and re-
tired for the night.

was evident that White had no chance.
Britton continued to increase his lead,
the referee warning White several
times to cease stalling.
White went through the last rounds
in marathon fashion from corner to
corner. Britton getting in hard lefts to
face and head, landing except when
White put on more speed. Had White
stood toe toe the fight would have
ended much sooner. Britton mussed
his man up pretty badly about the face
and eyes.

Filled With Staff Officers


The speakers platform was filled with
the staff officers of governors, with men
in Confederate gray and a few In blue,
with women in gay dresses and the Presi-
dent in his black frock coat was quiet
figure.
The President was in the tent only a
half hour At the conclusion of his speech
he shook hands with many of those on
the platform and then walked between
lines of the constabulary to his private
car waiting on a nearby siding. He stood
on the rear platform as the train pushed
slowly down toward Gettysburg through
the camp A few minutes later 1t started
for Harrisburg and the north.
Special trains began pushing out of
Gettysburg early and the railroad men
were working their hardest to put them
out on schedule. Although not many left
after sundown tonight the railroad Of
ficials estimate that the run had been
almost 1000 an hour for 10 hours. 1t is
probable, however that hundreds will
stay as long as possible on the field. Few
of them make any pretense that they ex-
peot to visit Gettysburg again and they
are anxious to take many look at the
hills and fields where their valor went
out in deeds that have been told the world
around.

OOer FdDOrite Anderson

bent anxiously over his PROSTATE ad-
versary and when Anderson finally raj
lied the vanquished pugulist was helped
to his corner by the victor. Anderson
was so weak that he was carried to his
dressing room.
Cross had the better of the fight all
the way. In the SECOND round he sent
the Oregon boxer sprawling upon his
back. In the succeeding rounds the New
Yorker punished Anderson severely
while avoiding nearly every blow the
Oregon boy aimed at him.
Anderson's face and body were
pounded numerically and in the fourth
round a short jab delivered by the dem
tist further relieved him of a tooth.

Wilson Reaches Camp
The President came into Gettyburg
shortly before IL o'clock from Balti-
more. Through the narrow. crooked
streets of this war-famed country town,
he motored out to camp, with Govern
or Tener of Pennsylvania and Represen-
tative Palmer of Pennsylvania by his
side His appearance at the station of
Gettysburg was the signal for a cheer
and from somewhere down In the
Gettysburg college grounds came the
customary 21 salute. From the station
to the camp over the village streets and
gray roads the President was driven
