Boxing is beneficial in more ways

by reformers. Private Carruthers, of
the British army, who lose the fac

The meeting was largely of social
nature, Dutch supper being served
to the members, and 4 smoker en-
Joyed by them after the business vas
disposed Of. Much of the time was
consumed in making final arrange
ments for the benefit to be given at
the Isis next Tuesday to raise funds
for the races.
Word from the New Orleans club
stated that possibly the largest num-
Der o; entries ever male IN the lo,.g
distance races would be made cnjs

said: LET them yell; it will be easier
to delay action on the nomination"
When Robins finally resumed his
speech he promised the leaders not to
mention Roosevelt's name again.
He promised the delegates that
there would be no unnecessary delay
in the nomination, and the convention
in the nomination, and the convention
adjourned.
The leaders apparently are graft
fed that they got through the day
without a nomination, but appeared
doubtful as to how long they could
