DUNDEE GIVES LEACH
CROSS A WALLOPING

Brooklyn, y. Y. June l9.-Johnny
Dundee handed a terrific walloping 10
Leach Cross before a crowd of $1,000
persons at Ebbets field last night. i
was one of the best fights between
Iightweights seen for some time, and
in spite of the fact he had been on the
receiving end most of the time Cross
was strong at the end and had the ad-
vantage OF the tenth round. This was
the only one he could claim but the
second and third and fourth we're
about even.
Freddie Welsh, lightweight cham
pion. had a soft time with Johnny Lus-
tig in the final bout Welsh won every
step of the route

Reply old song
COME AND SIT BESIDE ME"

Written by request.
No, cannot sit beside thee
Bend those eyes more NINE
Near thee now dare not nger
All my soul would still be thine.
1t were best as strangers,
Be the past forever dead.
1t madness thus to cherish
Hopes that have forever fled.
No, cannot sit beside thee,
All thy pleadings in vain,
must be OR NOTHING
Friends we ne'er can be again.
IF thou dost not hold dearer
Than all else beneath the sky,
Count the world at naught beside me-
Then scorn weaker tie.
Once with thy fond arms about me-
And thy warm lips close to mine
I'd have followed thee blindfoded,
Never doubling thought of thine.
Tho Lifes path proved rude and rugged
Where the mystic future lay,
I'd have thought it like to heaven
Had THY footsteps led the way.
BY the old gate in the woodland
shall never meet the more
Never list the dear old story
That SO oft you We told before
Thro the trees the moon shall simmer
And the glowing shine on,
But the two who watched their gul,ner
In the happy days agone;
Far apart with hearts asunder
Each separate path must tread,
THOU with all Life's blossoms blooming
with all my dead.
All ask of thee in parting
Otis question fair and ust)
Give me back my snless passion
Give me back my faith and trust
These are jewels thou ddst rifle
From the casket of my heart
Give them back as erst you found them
Then / care not when we part. ss
No, cannot sit beside thee,
Leave me with my grief alone
Tho another's charms hath bound thee
STILL THOU WAIST ALL MY OWN

number. which called for prize. The
storekeeper pleaded guilty to the
charge, through an interpreter. but de-
clared she did not know she was vio-
lating 1.-THE law.
This woman ought not to be blamed
so much" said Mr.. Given to Judge

sealed package and the coupon was in
closed in it when she made the pur-
chase. She says she was told She was
allowed to sell the tea. This business

will have to be stopped. 1t Is a lottery,
and i intend to have storekeepers
brought into court and will prosecute
them II they continue to sell articles
containing coupons"
