BOXING COMMISSION MEETS.
Decides 20 Let COmptrOilc Have
NOnOpOiy of Financial Worry.

The new boxing commission met here
yesterday and spent a good share OF it,
time in trying to decide what 10 do about
the charges mad by the State Comp
troller against most Of the boxing clubs
in the city. II was pretty hard 10 de-
eide whether or not TO do anything. for
the Con ptroller's report didn't blame
the boxing commission in any way.
After a good deal of discussion the
commissioners reached the decision tina
II might he a good idea TO let the Comp
troller handle the financial side Of the
sport all by himself and nus relieve the
commission OF a good deal OF worry
about dollars and cents. SO II the Com
missioners hold to the view they took
Yesterday they will let the Comptroller
do all instead of part OF the worrying
about collecting the tax due to the
state. Nothing final or definite was
adopted. however.
The usua number of suspended boxers
were on hand to pray for relief. and the
Commissioners seemed In q pleasant
frame Of mind. for "A couple of the peti-
TONERS got what they asked for.

the faults to be remedied, all that college sport may be bettered.

When I was just a little lad they

told me about the pot OF gold that lies
at the end of the stream. | started out
by myself to find the wherefore and
why of such wealth, but the folks they
wouldn't stand for it, it wasn't good for
my health. 1t seemed to me that If |
could find the end of the Archer's bow,
that the king of the world would be,
for I'd all OF life's secrets know. And
all of man is ever thus, hunting things
to him are hid, seeking for something he
mustn't have, to 60 where he isn't bid.
Why the shuffling and the scuffiing,
why not pause awhile and think, what
the sense to wear ones self out, till
you have to take to drink? am older
now and wiser perhaps, but I'm still
sometimes inclined to seek for the end
OF the rainbow, the big pot of gold to
find.-Elwin Hunt.
