tAis city TO see friend of mine. He

girls and | never had any other boy
friends. All at once, for no reason
whatever, he lett me, and / have seen
HIM only once or twice since then
until last week He met me on the
street and when we had said q few
words as we always did. he asked If
he might come to see me- / said that

DEVERE-FULTON CASE
COMES UP THIS WEEK

eide If Bob and Fred
Framed Up in Bout.

NtlcI wrestling for the greater part

agreement existed in the recent bat
tie between Fred Fulton and Bob De
we're. the Wisconsin boxing conmis-
sion decided to defer its final Iuling
until after another hearing, sched-
ucd for November 21.
So far rs the testimony taken TO
date indicates, there has been nothing
produced TO substantiatc the charge
that Devero deliberately quit IN order
to bolster up the knockout record OF
fulton. The evidence OF witnesses
was To the effect that Devcre was no
match for the Gopher giant.
Fulton is having n mighty difficult
tlnc of il establishing himself In the
good graces OF the boxing fans. His
record has really been creditable
one, and much more impressive than
the record Jess Willard had when he
wa selected to meet Jack johnson In
u championship match. Yet, In spite
of this fact, the sporting writers. who
really have n lot to do with noldin.
public opinion about the ring men,
have been loath to give Fulton the
credit that Is his due. His knockout
victories are commented upon with =
iinge OF suspicion. and If the Gopher
fails to stop his man then the charge
immcdiatcly follows that he has been
greatly overrated Truly things are
breaking bad for Fcrocious tredcr-
lck.
Silent Mike Collins is Determined 20

Local and Personal Mention
Polk Countian Has
Plan to Circun1Uent the
PestiferouS U-BodtS.

Not beyond the range of possibility is
the fact that it may fall to the lot of a
Polk county man to formulate the plan to
take care of the U-boaI situation.
Joe Lobetta, baggageman on the train
between Knoxville and CopPerhill, has
just returned from Washington where he
was called to submit plan he had formu-
lated for this purpose.
Out of seventeen trials, sixtehn OF them
were successful and there is every reason
to believe that it is the thing. Mr.. Lobetta
we understand was formerly in the italian
navy and he had good opportunity for
studying this subject.

A ISLANDER.

Somebody, somehow, somewhere, started
the report, few weeks ago, that W. ?.
Lang, of Cleveland, had been arrested for
treason.
No man in this section of East Tennes-
see is better known or has more friends
than W. P. Lang. He was born and raised
Ducktown, and in his home town his loyal
friends resent such base distortion of the
truth.
There was never any foundation for the
circulation of such report, and, with all
the facts before us, we can not conceive
how it started or the motive that prompted
it.
The author of the report is guilty OF
a crime on par with treason and, If To-
Gated, should receive little mercy.

THE TREBLE CLEFT CLUB.

The last number of the Lyceum course
at the Y. M. C. A. proved to be the most
delightful of all the numbers. Everyone
was pleased with the program rendered
and each member of the company was
heartily encored, Miss Smith captured
the audience with her musical reading I'm
the Usual Way" and Miss Jessie Rae Tay-
lor was exceedingly clever in her makeup
of the old woman and old man. When
ever such programs are given it is stimu-
lus to next seasons course and everyone
who heard this company would be glad for
a return date. They went from here to
Johnson City.
