London, March 24.-Herbert A.
Asquith, former premier, who re-
Gently was elected TO the house of
commons from Paisley. Scotland.
in a speech at the national liberal
club today replied to Premier
Lloyd Georges declaration. that all
the old parties should unite against
the labor party to prevent bolshev-
ism. Mr. Asquith said the appeal
was for class cleavage and the most
mischievous thing that had been
done.
He branded the Irish bill "a most
fantastic and impracticable scheme
and the greatest travesty of self
ever offered q nation."'
The significance of Mr.. Asquith's
speech is that 1t registers the for
NAL split in the liberal party. 1t
is pointed out that all liberals now
will have to choose whether they
will support the coalition party Of
Mr.. Lloyd George or give their adj
herence to Mr.. Asquith who claims

The sudden advance in demand

J Two good bouts and a small piece
OF bout were staged by tho Ben
nington Athletic club a: Union hall
Monday evening. The attendance was
the largest in the series of smokers
and the exhibitions given in the final
and the semi-final kept the fans on
tip toe from the first ring to the
gong.
In the main go between Silent Mike
of Bennington and Young Bebo Of
Syracuse the crowd was treated TO
the fastest exhibition b ythe big boys
yes seen at the hall. The Bennington
boxer for the first time In his local
career met an opponent who was al
ways willing to come to close quart
ers and keep on coming. Silent
Mike had an advantage in height and
reach but the colored boy evaded
most of The swings by clever ducking
and kept Silent Mike continue ly on
the move. Bebo plainly demonstrate
ed that he has had long experience
in the ring. He was shifty on his
feet, he. was ready to mix things at
every stage of the game and be
showed wicked left that repeatedly
found its mark. The pace was fast
from the start and in the final rounds
both boxes showed the effect of the
rapid work. Bebo would be given
a decision on points by any unpre-
JUDGED spectator but it was evident
that the Bennington boy had not
gone out of his clsas. Mike was not
worried at any time and the stiff
wallops that he received apparently
made not the slightest impression up
on him. The only times that he
smiled WAS when one of Bebos mits
went home. ss
The semi-final between Soldier Glib
bons of Bennington and Hook Sol of
Albany was an exhibition of scienti-
fee boxing The Albany boy is
finished boxer and he outweighed
Gibbons by all OF Is pounds. His
advantage in weigh. enabled the Al
bany boy to adopt rushing tactics, but
nearly all of his leads were either
skill fully avoided by ducking or land
ed harmlessly on one of Gibbons
gloves. Gibbons had teh better OF
the first three rounds but in the last
three the heavier man would have
been given shade In the argument.
Gibbons made an excellent Impress
ion. He is by far the best man OF
his weight seen here in many months.
He Is shifty, works With both hands
and ducks and blocks like veteran.
Pitted against a i35-pound boy he
could furnish an exhibition that
would be a credit TO any club
The preliminary between Kid Lang
of Bennington and Young Sharkey

bouts on record Lang began to
rush things with the first tap OF the
gong and in less than minute had
his opponent stopped.
