NEW YORK, March cit appears
that when Sam Langford went to

leave the country within six months.

required for them. Mcintosh, X seems,
furnished the bonds for Langford and
his family. amounting in all 10 ST.

AT the expiration of Langford' s
contract with Mcintosh, the latter re-
quested the American negro to leave
the country with his family and there
by relieve him from his bonds with
the government. Langford refused TO
do SO and tho Australian government
has instituted suit against Mcintosh
for the amount of the bonds.
Mcintosh. in order to protect him

Practically all arrangements have
been been completed for the mon
ster track meet to be given in the
Horse Show building, Saturday night,
beginning at 1880, and lasting until
all scheduled events have been com
pleted. The meet is under the aus
pieces of the of the Richmond Blues
and Richmond college.
The street car service to and from
the building will be of the best, and
no trouble will be experienced by the
patrons in arriving at the building.
The street railway company will run
the Main and Broad and Main cars
directly TO the building.
Georgetown men have informed the
management that they will come in
full force. Practically all who par
ticipated IN the Georgetown games
will attend.
If past records have any effect upon
the present meet the Blue and Gray
stand a good chance of winning the
meet. although there are other col
leges entered that will make the best
men from Georgetown race all the
way.

before has Georgetown been better
represented on the track. and with
such a formidable team as it has this
season. The quarter has triumphed
over Virginia, Washington and Lee
and even Johns Hopkins, holders of
the new South Atlantic record for

Washington and Lee will also be
represented by large aggregation.

runners in Virginia. will probably go
