Milwaukee Ring.
MICHIGANDER STAYS LIMIT
Champion Claims Ad Fouled in Sew
enth-ScaIpers as Usual Make
Coin of Seat Sale.

Milwaukee. Wis, March 13.-Willie
Richie, worlds lightweight champion,
gave AID Wolgast the lacing of his
life in the ring OF the Queensbury Ath-
ietic club last night when he batter
ed the Michigan "bear-cat" to defeat
after 10 rounds of furious milling.
Wolgasts' stamina was all that enabled
him to last the 10 rounds. for from
the fifth round on he was outfought
and outpunished badly.
1t was one of the greatest battles that
ever have been staged in Milwaukee
ring. From the first gong both boys
went into action and at no time was
there any "stalling." 1t can be said
for CAST that he put up good fight
for half the route. but after that it was
all Richie. The farther the champion
went the better be got. and when the
final gong sounded it certainly was
welcome sound to the ears of the Mich>
isander.
Richie did most of his damaging
execution with right cross and in the
seventh round he sent Wolgast to the
floor. where ne remained for the count
pliined OF the rough tactics and claim
ed that he had been fouled, but the
referee would not allow it.
Boxers Make Weight.
Ritchie and Wolgast made the stipu-
lated weight, 1875 pounds, at o'clock
The champion was we'll under the
notch while Wolgast wavered the
beam The fighters shook hands be-
fore the formality and each wished
the other the best of luck.
The special trains from Chicago
brought 1000 fans TO this city. Dele
cations from the Chicago Athletic asso-
citation. Illinois Athletic club, board
of trade. and the city hall occupied
special cars, and there was plenty of
betting before the crowd went to the
arena. Richie ruled favorite at odds
of 10 to 8. and the Milwaukee Germans
took all the money in sight on the
short end.
Scalpers secured a large number of
the 81, SO and So seats and sold them
for double their face value. Although
the police made efforts TO stop the
scalping, their endeavors were of no
avail and Chicago spectators reaped
a harvest.

False RumOr Accused
Teacher Of Killing
Young Pupil in Well

Townsville, Ga, March 22-As
an example of how far an utterly
unfounded rumor may reach and
the proportions to which it may
grow, Superintendent Searcy Of
the Thomas county schools thinks
he has recently had an experience
which is almost the limit.
The story in question was to the
effect that one of the most valued
and reliable of the young women
teachers in the county had, in the
attempt to punish pupil, pushed
him into the we'll at the school
house and killed him. Report also
said that the teacher had been ar
rested and was now in Jail. Mr..
Searcv says that he has had letters
and telephone messages in regard
to the matter about every hour in
the day lately, and he has grown
weary of denying the matter,
which is INTERPRETATIONS any foun-
dation.
The teacher in question has never
done anything that could even
open the way for such SANDER
and as to she well, the only one
near the schoolhouse is a hoared
one of six inches.

TIL; COMMISSION FORM OF GOVERNMENT

Gra IualIy and vet pcrsistcnty the idea of
the commission form of government for cities
is gaining Roadway and in each instance the
success of the innovation is grow ing in
strength
We hardly realize that in three hundred
cities of the Unitcd States this form is in
practice at the present time and 4 maiouty have
adopted it since 1908
In every city, without exception the feel.
ing is strong in favor of this form and in no
instance is there a desire to return to the old
method of conducting the public business.
There is still a conflict of opinion reg,rd.
ing the matter as there always is when a radr,a
change IS considered.
1t is particularly so in this instance as the
chang, is a radical one and the power of man.
aGcmcnt is transferred to ,ntey another
element in the cities where the commission
form has been instituted.
The operation of this form of municipal
control has the effect to take the cities out of
the hands of the politicians and put the power
into the hands of the people, we're it belongs.
That is what causes the fight against it and
which makes the fight SO warm whenever the
question of change is suggested.
We need change and the one change that
would bring about results would be to get in
line with the advanced methods of the day and
the progressive thought and establish in this
city the commission torn Of government.
The people who are Effected by this form
of government are the ones who pay the cx.
penscs and they are the to be considered,
1t is their business and they are the ones to
manage it.
We need it in this city. We want the
citizens to control their own ahairs.-New
