MARQUETTE UNIVERSITY
ENDOWMENT COMPLETE
Belief That Sum VIII Be At Least
100000 When All Donations
Are Paid.
$5O3,471 NOW AN ASSURED FACT.

Marquette university's ten-day cam
paign came to a close Saturday night,
when the leaders announced that
$500, All had been raised as an en-
dowment fund for the institution At
the start of the movement mark of
100000 was set as the fondest hope
of the hundreds of workers.
Of the total 100000 was donated by
one man whose name was not revealed
Chairman John H Puelicher said that
this sum was deposited at the Marshall
& Ilsley bank The identity of the
donor may be made public during the
week.
The campaign ended in a whirlwind
finish. In spite of the fact that S112,-
S94.71 had been collected during the
twenty-four hours ending at noon Sat
urday, the total at that time was only
S476,6 59.51. Every man and woman
who had participated in the campaign
during the ten days volunteered to
again comb the city for $4,000 more.
The amount raised during the after
noon and evening was S26,792.20.
1t is believed that when ali of the
money promised is paid, the total will
be nearer the 100000 mark
This will be quite pleasant news to
those who subscribed to the fund in
Watertown, among them being the
knights of Columbus with $500

WISCONSIN POULTRY
BREEDERS ASSOCIATION
Plans Laid For the Coming Years
Work, Which Includes Picnic
In July.
I. J. BERTO GIVEN POSITION.

The Wisconsin Poultry Breeders
Association set in motion the wheels
Of progress under the new constitu-
ion adopted at the annual meeting at
appleton, when at its executive board
Meeting committees were ap-
pointed and plans laid out for
he coming years work. Those
present at the meeting were: Presi-
lent George w. Hackett, North Free
ION; Vice President j. G. Halpin,
Madison; Secretary Claire Roberts,
ct Atkinson, and directors George M.
Wells, Oshkosh; John c. Ryan, APP
oletOn; E. G. Roberts, Fl. Atkinson
md G. w. Garlock, West Salem.
At this meeting G. w. Garlock ten
lered his resignation as a member of
the executive board for the reason
hat the new constitution and by laws
;orbids the election of more than one
member from any county. La Crosse
county has in Judge E. H. Hoffman a
member on the board and the editor
Of the Poultryman would not be a
party to the first violation of the as
ISOLATION laws which he so recently
lad helped to adopt. 1t has been
stated elsewhere that he resigned to
become election commissioner which
is not the way he looks at it. The
board selected H. G. Jackson of
Mineral Point to fill the vacancy.
At this meeting is was voted to
lold a summer picnic at the time for
The annual meeting at Madison, some
time IL LILY, and a committee con-
sisting OF President Hackett, Profess
sor Halpin and E. G. Roberts was
appointed to arrange for said meet
ing and picnic.
On the committee on education
are two prominent school men Of the
state. w. E. Smith, principal of the
Sank County training school and
Professor T. j. Berto, principal of the
schools at Watertown, both of whom
are practical poultrymen and in close
ouch with the school interests of the
state. With Professor Halpin as
chairman of the committee, we feel
that some very effective work will be
done.
The new constitution will be pub
iished at once and a copy placed in
the hands of each member of the as
ociation. The various committees will
hold meetings as occasion permits or
necessity demands, and each depart
ment will soon be in working order
annual members whose dues are SOC
per year, a certificate of membership
being issued to each. There will also
be an active campaign kept up for
A P. A. Life members.

Moran Forces. Fighting.

Moran put up a game fight. Most
Of the time he crouched and forced the
fighting. Willard seemed slower on
his feet than the challenger, and ap-
peared to have an unlimited capacity
to take punishment. Moran scowled
as he fought, but Willard smiled.
Willard had the better on points in
every round except the third, which
went to Moran by a narrow margin,
and the eighth and ninth, which were
even.
The conquerer of Jack Johnson
claimed to have broken all the bones
in the back Of his right hand during
slashing rally in the third and it was
noticeable that he did not use his right
hand to any extent in the later rounds.
Occasionally he uppercut to Moran's
body or jaw with that hand but it lack

training work

Frank Shows GameneSS.

The chief feature of Moran's battle
was his gameness. Although he could
make no impression on Willard with
his hardest swings, he fought steadily
and courageously under hail of left
jabs and hooks which battered his face
and almost closed his left eye toward
the end of the bout Several times
Moran was dazed by the champions
smashes, but Willard, fighting with his
usual lack of aggressiveness, did not
appear to try particularly for a knock
out
The champion never was in danger
from Moran's blows although num-
Der landed with crashing force on his
jaw and body. Most of them, however,
either were blocked or avoided by the
Kansas cowboy, who took full advan-
tage of his great height and extraor-
binary reach.
Promoter Tex Richard announced
that the gate receipts amounted to
$751; ,254. OF this amount the state re-
ceived 71a per cent. of the gross re-
ceipts, which amounted to 81, 344.05.
Wizards share was s47,5OO and
Moran's $23,750.
Combined with the percentage taken
by the state and the 81 500 paid for the
rental Of the garden, the expenses
totaled $90,094O5. To this must be
added other expenses, which probably
will bring the total up to about $780,
900, so that Tex Richard and his part
will clear close to $4,000 profit.
