immensely by 1t.

of your usual health, and with the
sincerest of holiday greetings, l re-

lessor Troxler teaches boxing, and
he exhibits the pupils skill at his
boxing shows. Large gloves ere
used and the bouts are OF only four
rounds duration. II pleasure inter-
feres with business we are told to

ways turn It around the other way
If the law interferes with boxing
shows as conducted by Troxier, we
would say. forget the law. Mr.. Nun

Though he lost one of his shoes
after running half g mile. Frank
zuna, of this city. captured the time
prize and finished second in a six
mile road race In Philadelphia yes
serday. This boy has proved himself
a contender in any number OF races
recently, and he bids fair to become
a distance runner Of no mean order
His performance In Philadelphia yes
terday was certainly notable. He
came within the proverbial ace of
winning the race. but was beaten out
at tho end by a Philadelphia who
had a much bigger handicap.

A bike fan takes issue with "one OF
the Crowd" He says.
J. P. N: 81
The article OF zone OF the Crowd"
was about the meanest sort of COM
position that could be written against
cycling. II seems very odd that said
Crowd" should hold his declaration
until so late in the year. He proba-
bly, heard Of the proposed closing OF
ali sports in Newark on Sunday, so, |
thinking it must happen, he wishes
to be one of those 81 told you So
sports. He may hold his opinion for
ever, but he cannot change mine, and
I think this goes for a great number
