BOXING CONTEST
AT GAINESVILLE
Fred L. HOwarth, of Newark, Meets
John DOwney, of the Clay City

An enthusiastic crowd of boxing
fans accompanied Fred (Fritz) How
arth, the popular B. & o. machinist
and member of Licking Lodge No. 80,
to GAINESVILLE on New Years afternoon,
to be present at the boxing exhibition
held on that date.
Howarth was matched, with John
Downey, brother of the famous Bryan
Downey, of Columbus, in 10 round
go. Both men were in good shape,
but Downey had the advantage on
weight and experience-outweighing
his opponent by six pounds, and
having boxed with his celebrated
brother many times.
When time was called the house
was filled with a capacity audience.
The contest was short, owing to an
unfortunate accident. Briefly the
rounds were as follows:
First-Both men spared cautiously,
feeling each other out. This con-
tinued till time was called. Even.
Second-Fritz Immediately took the
aggressive, which he continued to
hold during the round, hammering his
opponent all over the ring. All in
favor of Fritz.
Third-Fritz continued his rushing
tactics, hitting his opponent with
everything but the water bucket,
whenever and wherever he pleased.
Round closed decidedly in Fritz's
favor.
Fourth-The end came suddenly and
unexpectedly in the fourth round.
Downey was clinching to save punish
ment, and in the mix-up his arm was
caught in such way as to dislocate
his shoulder. He dropped to the floor,
claiming his arm was broken. A
surgeon, upon examination discovered
his shoulder out of place, and he was
therefore unable to proceed.
This Immediately stopped an ex-
hibition that had been altogether in
Fritz's favor, it being evident from
the start that Downey was out
classed, and that the bout could only
have lasted a few more rounds at
the most.
The main event was preceded by
bout between Bobby Trott, of Co
lumbus, and Tony Lascola, of Gin
cinnati, in what was supposed to last
10 rounds. Both lads were clever and
gave a pretty exhibition, in which
Bobby gave the Greek thorough
trimming. At the end of round 5
Lascola quit, declaring he had enough.
1t is needless to say that the B. q
o. boys feel jubilant over the showing
made by Howarth, and that the senti-
ment is shared by all Newark fight
fans. Fritz, here's looking at you.

Money Circulated Long Ago

for half a dollar, but not so much as
it was generation ago. In England
and the American colonies, and in the
early years of the United States. an
penny. pieces were frequently called
the "four-penny Bit and the six
penny bit," the "bit'' being used to ex-
press the thought that the four and
six penny pieces were very small
sums OF money, or bits"
But the word "bit" as 1t is used
in the west today to express a sum
of money was Spanish coin that
was current in the West Indies and
Mexico At first this "bit" seems to
have been worth only 10 cents, but
it was succeeded by coin that be-
worth in United States currency 12h
cents. 1t was often called Me lean
shilling.
A long time ago. when the discuss.
sion of the meaning of bit" two
bits" -four bits" and the like, had
authority on old coins had this to
say:

Of the use to which they were put
1t was strange condition of affairs
which led to their issue. The civil
war had put great strain on tho
finances of the United states. Metallic
money grew scarce. In the first place
it was exported and in the second
place 1t was boarded in vast sums The
government had issued 'greenbacks"

used postage stamps, tokens
of various forms, their own promises
to pay" or script. and even buttons
were employed as small change, to be
later redeemed by the merchant in
goods. 1t was to meet such conditions
as these that the government issued
small paper notes in denominations Of
10, 26 and so cents.
Evening star., 1918-08-11

'NHE suggestion tHat tHC oh'eSN
States may coin 3, 6 and cent
pieces and perhaps other small
and odd or unusual denomina-
tions of metallic currency. because the
penny, nickel, dime and quarter do
not fit conditions that have arisen. re-
calls to many persons the big two
cent. two or three varieties of
three-cent pieces. silver half
dimes and twenty-cent pieces
that were current not so many years
ago. There were also the cartwheel
pennies and the white cents" of an
older generation. Many persons are
still living who can remember the
fifty dollar gold pieces, or "slugs."
which were circulated in early Cali
fornia days. and at one time gold coins
in such small denominations as 25 and
SO cents were in circulation. They
were so small that they were decided
ly inconvenient to handle and great
numbers of them were lost. And, of
course, everybody. or very nearly ev-
erybody, can recall when the gold dol
lar was in circulation. This coin was
never in much favor in Washington
except for bangles" which were
much worn by women. and for pres
ents at Christmas and New Year, just
as people now sometimes use two-ffty
and five-dollar gold pieces as holiday
gifts.
Not many years ago Washington
people spoke of fps" bits" and
"levies." These terms were used in
the common speech of the citizens and
newspapers as late as the '70's, though
at that time there were no coins in
use representing the denominations
which these terms stood for.
The '1evy" was in circulation In
Maryland and Virginia in colonial and
considerably later days. 1t is said
that the word was a contraction OF
of the colonies it was called the
eleven -penny-bit, especially in the
north, where the people took more
pains with the pronunciation Of words
than the average run of people did in
Maryland and Virginia. The levy was
a Spanish coin. and the Spaniards
and those Americans who took pride
in the use of foreign worlds called 1t
a real" Sometimes they called It the
Spanish shilling, but 1t usually went
under the name of the levy" Its
value was the eighth part of a dollar,
or 121s cents.
Old Washingtonians can recall that
dry goods merchants frequently ad-
vertised certain classes of goods at
"a levy yard" If you bought one
yard you paid 13 cents for 1T, but you
could get two yards for a quarter.
The "fp" was contraction OF "five
pennies" and that was the value of
the denomination long after the coin
had ceased to circulate in the United
States.
Then there is the word bit" There
Is good deal OF confusion about the
meaning of that word. Two bits" Is
still heard in the west, whore II means
rs cents, and -four bits" is also used

extracts from several of the most
popular songs from among the many
which have been resurrected from
the chanteys of the past. The frst

Another chantey which is fifty years
with Mark Twain. 1t relates to an
old skipper who was always singing
about the trials of certain Lorenzo
whom he spoke Of as Ranzo.
o Ranzo was no sailor.
He skipped on board whaler.

Later on Ranzo does better. He 10.

him as follows:
"And he gave him wine and water.
