NEW YORK. Jan. 11.-That box

leading sports, from the standpoint
Of attractiveness to the spectator,
during 1917 is amply demonstrates
by the ring records of the past year.
Neither promoters nor pugilists are
inclined TO play the game unless
there is reasonable remuneration
involved and the fact that some 10
OF the leading glove knights par
ticipated in close to LOO bouts dur
ing the y months just ended indi-
Gates that the box office receipts
were up 10 the usual standard.
Such statistics as are available
show that a large majority OF the
LOO bouts held were staged in
eastern cities where the contests are
limited 10 engagements ranging
from six to twelve rounds unless cut
short by a knockout As a result a
large percentage of the bouts termi-
nCted in draws or no-decision affairs
but even allowing for this handi-
cap in reaching decisive finish the
percentage of knockouts was a
trife better than Z per cent. Light
weight Champion Benny Leonard
leads i'm this respect, his record
showing the surprisingly high stand
ard Of winning almost two-thirds of
his bouts by knockouts.
Some idea Of what this &c %
percent efficiency means can be
gained from a comparison of this
record with that of other American
title holders for the year just closed.
Pete Herman. the bantam cham

bouts by the X. .. route; Johnny

The Wildisg memorial fund being
raised by Australians tennis players
to purchase a perpetual trophy to
commemorate the memory of An
thony F. Wilding has passed the
$500 mark and gives promise OF
doubling these figures. The New
Zealand Lawn Tennis association
has been presented with the racket
that Wilding used in the Davis cup
matches of 1908. The racket was
first offered as a trophy in a war
time tournament and the ultimate
winner decided it TO the association
as a perpetual property.
The death is announced at the
front of Capt w. r. c. Holland,
one of the best known track athletes
and Oarsmen in England. He was
a versatile track athlete, winning
British championships at the 100
yard. half-mile. mile, and long
Jump. He rowed in the Oxford var
sity eight for four years, and was
president Of Oxford Boating club in
1889. He rowed No. Z in 1896 in
the Leander crew which defeated
Yale. For several years afterwards
he coached the Oxford crews, and
for 10 years before the war acted
as judge at the Henley regettas.

CAUSE OF TIRED FEELING
Complaint, Common With Many Peo-
pie Every Morning, Due to Press-
ure Of Too Much Purin.

The familiar condition in which one
wakes up in the morning. after a good
nights rest, with a dry mouth. spirits
depressed. feeling tired, aching all
over, was explained. by DIR. Nathan
ROsewater of Cleveland In the course
Of discussion Mt a recent meeting
of the American Medical association.
He said such person will go ahead
and do hard days work and feel
better as the hours pass, until In the
evening all signs Of trouble have gone.
Such a person often had severe pains
In the abdomen, the muscles Of which
were extremely sensitive; but the
more they were pressed the less sensi.
tive they became.
This condition is not, as often be-
lieved, due to intestinal tOxaemia, or
poisoning Of the blood by the products
Of imperfectly digested food. but to
the pressure Of too much purin in the
system.
When the foods that are rich In
purins are given up the sufferers rap
idly improve. They were never really
fatigued. their symptoms being merely
stimulation Of fatigue.

"And you were out again today. My

was bitter. He believed Macdonald

how he had a chance to save a small
Eskimo tribe during a hard winter. He
carried food five hundred miles to
them. 1t was thrilling experience"
Mr.. Macdonald has had q lot of
very interesting experiences. You must
get him to tell you about all Of them, /"
answered Gordon quietly.
The eyes Of the two men met. The
steel-gray ones Of the older man an

a long, steady look. There was in It
something Of triumph, something Of
scornful insolence. II this young fell

The color in her cheeks grew warm

ulated, Mr.. Elliot"
Diane took her cousin in her arms

The defeated man bowed. Thanks
very much. The chances are that I'll
be through my business before then"
AS soon as his fiancee had gone into
the house. the Scotsman left. Gordon
sat down in a porch chair and stared
straight In front Of him. The sudden
ness Of the news had brought his world
tumbling about his ears. He felt that
such marriage would be an outrage
against Sheba's innocence.
Though she was sorry for him. Diane
did not think IT best to say so yet.

She had always been a young woman
Of rather hard finish. Now she met

Elliot carried away with him one
very definite impression. Diane in

good as served notice on him that the
girl was spoken for.
The young man set his square jaw
Diane was used to having her own

voice.

She nodded. "I-admire you more

She has never known the failure that

II hope you're not. There will need

When he said gOod-by it was with a

"I'll be back in two days. Perhaps
you'll have good news for me then"
he suggested.
The dark, silken lashes of her eyes
lifted shyly to meet his.
Perhaps" she said.
.
During the absence Of Macdonald
the field agent saw less of Sheba than
he had expected, and when he did see
her she had an distracted manner he
lid not quite understand. She kept to
her own room a good deal. except when
she took long walks into the hills back
II the town. Diane had shrewd idea
