pugilistic champion of the world.
In 10 rounds OF fast fighting he
defeated Frank Moran of Pitts
burg here tonight on points
A crowd of about $4,000 per
sons paid approximately $780,
600 to see the fight and went
away apparently satisfied with
the result. 1t was the greatest
gathering Madison Square Gar
den had ever seen. Many wo-
men were IN the throng.
Willard broke his right hand
in the third round but blows
from his fighting left kept Moran
at a distance. Moran's best
round was the third and his
worst probably was the seventh.
He was bleeding after the fifth
round, and his left eye was al
most closed at the end.

seem to be in earnest when they
say they intend to see that the
matter is properly done. Every

effort to remove all rubbish and
filth from the Town. The time
is not uext month nor next
week, but tomorrow, Thursday,
March 30th. Help to make the
Town cleaner, brighter, health
ier and better bv doing your
part in the cleaning process. If
you are inclined to be stubborn

be told what to do on your own
premises, just remember that the
Town can have the cleaning
done in case you don't do it and
make you pay for it.

There has never been better
opportunity for the organization
of a mutual tire insurance com
pany in Chesterfield county than
now, and in many other counties
IN South Carolina also. The in
surance bill running the South
eastern Underwriters from the
State has directed the attention
OF the people to the rates they
have been paying. John L. Nc
Laurin was asked $3.50 $10O
for insurance on warehoused
cotton last year by the trust, and
he went out of the Slate and had
ii insured for $l.5S $1OO. A
factory president in the Pee Dee
section was asked rs cents by
the Underwriters, but insured
out of the State for 45cents. The
4orkville Enquirer tells us that
THE Farmers Mutual Fire
Insurance Company of York
County has been carrying quite
considerable amount of insur-
ance at a cost of only 35 cents
per 500, as against $1.2O per
500 for the stock companies
Chesterfield county should have
a mutual fire insurance com.
pany. Who can or will organ
