1.-TWO wears ago a husky boy Of
some sixteen summers stood al
the corner of Whitehall and
Alabama streets yelling:

etc.
This morning we were surprised
not to find him there again.
For that is just where Kid Young
belongs. AS a fighter he is a grand
little newsie
THERE has been a scramble among
the numerous 800 Founders in
Atlanta for some time now, and thiT
same Kid Young somehow or other
crowded his way to the top Of the
bunch. He possessed nothing but 9
wicked kick in his right hand, and n
boy in the city knew enough about
the game to keep away from that
stock in trade wallop.
But a husky little visitor from
New York-Knockout Eggers they
billed handicapped in on us last
night at the Georgia Athletic Club
and gave the local scrappers lesson
in how to avoid that same right hand.
And at the same time Master Eg-
gers showed Master Young to b0
about as game as an African bee
hound. Without landing one single
solid punch the K o. person Induced
the Kid to find a soft spot i'm tho
canvas. and he folded up like a Mar
agansett clam on said $. 8. in the
first portion of the third session.
EGGERS was verify stiff from a
II hard battle he had against Kid
Herman in New orleans Monday
night. If he hadn't been. Young
would have probably ceased in the
first round.
There was little fighting at any
stage. Eggers rushed Young all over
the ring in the first round and got
home only one good punch a long
swinging left to the jaw. Young
tried to shoot over his right, but Egg
gers had heard all about that blow
and kept walking 10 the Kids left.

SPORTING COMMENT

O'Clock, but a Buffalo promoter,
fearing they would lose their big
card, insisted that he not make
the match excepting at 1856 pounds.
1t was a funny situation, but the
fighters manager had to do what
the promoter said,
80" HEY tell me now that Duffy
can not box in Buffalo until
he has filled his engagement with
White. | hope that is true, be
cause these boys will draw the
biggest house ever seen in Buff
falo. White beat him before and
can do so again.
UDON'T construe my remarks
as belittling Duffy in any
way. He is really a great fighter
and showed it when he beat Fred
Welsh. But he can not beat
White. All / want to show is that
he should fill his engagement with
White before he has the temerity
to challenge the champion of the
class. If he can not whip White
he won't stand much chance with
Ritchie, and at that I'm not so
sure that White wouldn't stand
just as good a chance with Rit-
chic as Wolgast did, and perhaps
a little better"

Arguments against the Baker bill.

chamber of the house of delegates be-
fore the house committee on prisons

and g w. Throckmorton made elo-
quent pleas In behalf OF the incorrigle
girls held there, declaring that the
home was a vital thing to the State of
Virginia and should any attempt to
abolish il would be one of the great
est wrongs that the legislature could
commit.
Mr.. smith. in his argument said the
contributors had offered To turn the
school over TO the state provided the
state would take complete charge Of
the inmates and furnish them a place
of correction elsewhere. He said that
even IL the present site was abandoned.
the school would have TO be placed
somcw here In the State, and he saw
no reason why the residents of Bon
Air had any more right to be free from
this alleged nuisance than any other
citizens OF Virginia.
Rev. II. ID. e. Machlanlan. pastor OF
the Seventies Street Christian church
and chairman of the executive COM
mittee Of the home. made an eloquent
appeal TO the legislators, going into
detail about the excellent work of
the home, and scathingly attacked the
men who had made the attack on the
school and its management. He
stated that the charges brought
against the school and the officers
were false, not Intentionally SO, but
made in state of hysteria and pas
sion.
The hearing lasted until after the
shades OF night had fallen. with the
defendants still occupying the floor.
The hearing was continued until the
next regular meeting Of the commit

made an excellent impression, and
