Science.

The ten round bout between Fred die Welsh and Charley White, which was to have been held in New York on January 13. has been postponed un- til January 26. White requested the managers of the club for more time to train, owing to the fact that the previous date was too soon after his ten round bout with Joe Shugrue last Tuesday night.
 After the managers had granted White his request they immediately began negotiations for 8 ten round bout between Ad Wolgast and Leach Cross or Wotgast and Joe Shugrue for January 13.
 The bout will be made interesting to New Workers for the reason that the fans have seen Shugrue face them both within the past three weeks, and taking line through his work. White and Welsh are just about as evenly matched as two men well could be. Shugrue scored a decisive verdict over Welsh and his boxing ability was of sufficient value to give him a pos sibie shade on points over White.
 On this line of reckoning Welsh should be defeated by White. But dope on prize ring athletes does not prove as perfect as it does in other lines of sport. This is due to the fact that boers have different styles and what will suit one opponent will not suit another Calculations go awry in boing bouts with greater reg ularity than in any other line of sport There have been instances where ex- travagant odds have been laid that a certain man would win q fight and the result proved quite to the con- trary.
 When Sullivan fought Corbett the closing quotations on. Sullivan were 5 to that he would win. He ambled of l0o 5aF f6l one cared to go over the statistics of betting on glove contests it would be found that nearly 50 per cent. of the non-favorites were returned winners.
 These things are merely cited to show the uncertainty of pugflisttc dope, and that while one man may appear to be a, prohibitive favorite things can happen to upset calcula- fions in an instant.
 Returning to the primary subjects
 White and Welsh--it is very prob able that White will be slight favor ite over the champion on his showing with Shugrue. The critics appreciate his style of fighting more than they did Welsh in their criticisms and the old dyed in the wool fighter looked upon White as a mechanic at the game. He is more of a fighter than Welsh, and while the latter may get a general verdict on points, it is a sure thing White will show a better fighting instinct.
 The lesson White received at the hands of Shugrue should make him change his tactics when he faces Welsh. He discovered in that bout that in a ten round bout boxer has to do much more than stand around and wait for opportunities: It was Shugrue,s aggTessiYeness and speed that gave him the advantage in the number of blows struck during his bout with White Had the latter bucllled down to his. job earlier in the milling he would have unqueS- tionabEy earned a verdict.
 There is nothing in Welsh's make up or style that White need fear. He cannot hit as hard as Shugrue, though he is probably more clever. This being

MCLEAN BOOM FOR
 PRESIDENT IN 1916.
Senator 5randeeee Said to Be Enthu- siastic-ReIieves the Administration Programme Doomed to Fail.

The Mclean presidential boom is re- ceiving a cordial endorsement in Washington,
 You can count me as one of the enthusiastic Mclean boomers,i said Senator Frank B. Erandagee of Con- necticut to a correspondent.
 MT. Brandagee added that he did moi believe the vice presidential nomina- ton would prove attractive to New England senator.
 It is believed in Washington that Mclean will be endorsed as Connecti- cuts favoTite son by Judge w. r. Hen ney of Hartford member of the Re publican national committee; Repres- sentative elect +. J. Hill of NorwaIk and other good Connecticut republi- cans.
 Senator Brandagee says he does not think there is a chance of legislation at this session of congress to prohibit the exportation of arms and ammuni- tion and other articles to the coun- tries engaged in the great war This view is shared by other experienced observers in Washington.
 Mir. Brandagee expects the so-called administration legislative program to fail at this session of congress. He does not see how. under present cir cumstanCes it will be possible to pass the ship purchase bill Philippine au- tonomy bill and other measures en- dorSed by the president, in addition to LIle siiiIiLel dppTbpIldJIoH ulilS i1G pointed out that the democrats in con- Gress are solely divided and can not agree among themselves upon the i'm migration bill. ship purchase bill. Philippine bill. conservation bills and other matters.
 A prominent New England senator. today criticized President Wilson's note to Great Britain protesting against the treatment of American vessels and shipments. The senator said the administration forbade pub lication of manofests of vessels sail ing from American ports for 30 days after their departure. This, he said, forced the British navy to search ships at sea. The note may cause trouble it is feared by some.
 Senator Brandegee, however does not anticipate any trouble.
 The advantage of length of service in the senate is being illustrated ill the case of Senator Mclean In the next congress he will be ranking re- publican member of the committee on Philippines and second Republican member on the committees on bank ing an dcurrency and territory

His lantern was on the floor at some distance from the body
 He probably felt himself failing and setting it down moved away from it
