A HARTFORD CoMPANY's SUCCESS

While New England is noted for it's manufacture of. various articles known throughout the world, it is probable that there is no company among all these manufacturers any more suc- cessful than the Underwood Typewrit- CT, located in Hartford.
 This company entered into the field about 15 years ago with a new type of writing machine allowing the operator to view the writing as she received such attention and was so vancement that the. Underwood com pelled all other writing machines to be reconstructed in line with it's new features. Since that time the com pany's product has multiplied year by year, until now the factory turns out over 500 machines a day and is said to be by far the most successful com pany in the trade. It's factory is acknowled ged to be either first or. sec ond in system and welfare work. In it's home at Hartford over $500 people are employed.
 It was expected that the sudden declarations of war in Europe and the shutting down of the export trade would cause all the typewriter com panies to close their factories for a. time at least. But ther Underwood after a, two weeks vacation which it always takes every year, has reopened it's doors and is turning out nearly as many type writers as ever. Other companies, it is said, have not made a. similar decision.

The fahove letter was written just before Ethe war started and it is doubtful whether any big matches will be at Itempted,- although reports have it sthat Bombardier Wells. and Young fAhearn are to meet in September.
 Johnny Kilbane. the clever feather weight champion, is to have another title battle in Los Angeles Sept. 22, when he meets Johnny Dundee. the New York Italian. who gave, him a very hard fight in Los Angeles April k29, 1913. Both boys have been talk E ing of return match ever since then, but it was not until the past few weeks that they were able to get to- kgether on terms. Dundee has insist led right along higher weight than t1what the feath herweight limit calls for, Ebut he finally agreed to make 122 10 s. tringside, which the champion de- i1nanded. This also proves tllatN Xiii kbane is a legitimate featherweight, 2 s The has always claimed, and not a fnear-lig ightweight as many people have E4ried to make out. It looks like an- other defeat for Dundee at the feath- EerWeight limit It seems peculiar ithat at the same time Scotty Mon Eteith, manager of Dundee, should be willing to put up a side bet of $2,5O0 ito match Dundee against Willie
 Beecher, the tough New York light Eweight, at 133 pounds ringside. It lis probable that this match will also tbee made as John J. Reisler, manager lof Beecher, has posted money in Los Angeles for a 20-round battle with
 any lightweight living. Should Dun ldee lose to KiIbane, he twill have a
 good aibi in the fact that he made
 a weight that is altogether too low
 for him.
