den tonight. will be given another
opportunity to make good in a fight
at the Garden with Charley Weinert,
the Jersey boy who is claiming con-
siderable attention in pugilistic cir
Giles Just now. Billy Gibson, manager
of the Garden, has first call on Wei
merits services, and Percy Woodruff,
Weinert's manager is anxious to have
Weinert meet Leyinsky, so as to
show the New Workers who were not
feated Levinsky, that there was no
mistake about the victory and that
those who called the bout a draw did
a raw injustice to the Jerseyman
crack at Levinsky and if the Battler
makes good tonight he will very like
ly be matched against Weinert for
the next Garden show.
C
IS. o. & s." takes to poetry and
incidentally takes a few sound
whacks at some of the correspond
ents who have been abusing them
The great Latin poet, Horatius,
used to say: There is a limit to be
observed in all things" The major
ity of all correspondents who have
honored us by their attacks have
passed the limit of the honest and
the reasonable by accusing us of
having said and done things we
never dreamed Of Anyhow, al
though we have wrongfully been
blamed of starting this controversy,
with the permission of all the read
ers, We will close it by this final let
ter. That is to say FINAL" if all Of
tenders will desist from mentioning
Italy's name in their feverish talks.
This we do for the great respect we
have for the editor of sport Topics"
and all the intelligent readers. Our
answers to the correspondents of
last Saturdays issue of the Evening
Star, ITO Less HASH" we feel like
saying his wonderful story of the
boarding house, where hash was
served him at breakfast, dinner and
supper, reminds us of a poetry of a
well-known poet. 1t goes something
like this:
The fable which I now present
Occurr'd to me by accident;
And whether bad or excellent,
Is merely so by accident.
A stupid ass one morning went
Into field by accident
And cropp'd his food and was con-
tent
Until he spied, by accident,
A flute, which some oblivious gent
Had left behind by accident;
When, shifting it with eager scent,
h n naiI
And made the hollow instrument
Emit sound by accident.
"Hurrah! Hurrah," exclaimed the
GLOW cleverly l play the fiute"
A fool, in spite of natures bent,
May shine for once-by accident.
We advise you, LESS Hash" after
reading this poetry, to change board
ing houses for the benefit, not only
of your stomach, but for your gen
eral health II we were forced to
continue our controversy we would
do so because of the fact that you
belong in the list of "the more fools.
the more fun"
With permission of Correspond
ent ELI F." we say we have
never classified Clark and Goullet as
second-rate riders. Read our letters
on these two riders and YOU Will
realize how many lies you can say
in few feverish paragraphs of a
letter. We do not support Nerrl and
Moretti because they are Italians,
but just because it wc'ld be poor
policy to praise in spC-, only the
Americans or the Australians.
Noticed also with pleasure the
come back" of "Frenchy Corpora
ton Our letter in regard to 1.-THE
challenge of Barletta" produced
after all, the. desired effect--made
"Frenchy Corporation" reveal its ma
tionality. We extend to them our
10y. hoping that, after all, the adyer-
saries of IS. Q. & Co. will turn to
be good friends.
How is Canvasser smith getting
natures? Keep il up, faithful and
bold, and you will surely win.
Very truly yours oo
More praise for IS. o. & Co. is
contained in the following contribu-
ton:

A few words regarding your Sport
Topics" which l find to be very in
teresting I do not like to interfere
or hurt anyones feelings, but as a
constant reader, and one who is fond
of sports, / would like to say a few
words concerning the controversy
that is going on in your paper about
rs. o. & Co." At first l thought it
to be only a pastime between the
writer's themselves, but now l realize
that every word they say is true.

they should be wrong. they are Will
everything to Caesar that belongs to
Caesar" Now, if everyone of those
soreheads who write against IS. o.
& Co" would only understand the
meaning of IS o. & Co" they
wouldn't try to make fools of them
selves as they are doing. Take, for
instance. the correspondent who
thinks she is smart, "A Girl" Now,
don't you think, j. p. N, that she
would be better off if she would at
tend to her housework. wash the
dishes. scrubbing the floor, etc?

A friend of IS. o. & Co." comes to
the front with these few kind words

I am constant reader of your
paper and I must say l like your
sport Topics" l have often read
the controversies among your read
ers, particularly one concerning IS
o. & Co." 1 don't see why they
knock rs. o. &c Co." just because
they give credit where it is due.
