HAPPENINGS AROUND THE COVE

John Simkins is spending the week
In Trenton with his daughter, Mrs.
Nergil Willy, and is attending the
Trenton Fair.
Captain George Fennimore has fin
lshed the roof on his sisters house
and from all appearances he made a
fine job of it. He can now view his
contentment in his idle moments, the
result of his arduous labors.
The oyster season will be on at
Dory Powells towards the end of the
month, when large shipment of the
new crop will arrive.
The reasoning powers of some of
our kind readers is far beyond our
comprehension, for altho we often put
things between the lines, we did not
imply that all cellars in the Cove had
water in them. There are lots of
places in Penns Grove where one will
find the cellars far more wet than in
the abiding Cove.
Following that same course of rea-
soning, or even a more simple method,
one might conclude that since Frank
Summerill has a white horse he is
therefore a Grand Wizard, or some
0iiAilS Win N III II, OF IndL Invisible
empire.
We heartily agree with our constit-
uents that every one in the Cove pays
their bills; in fact it would be pleas
ant world if every one were as good
pay as the Cove folks.

CARP FIGHTS POORLY
DESPITE K. O. VICTORY

PARIS, May 7.-Although Georges
Carpenters comeback against Marcel
Miles gave him the French heavy
weight title. experts who saw him
knockout Miles in the eighth round
of a scheduled f1fteen-round battle
yesterday were not impressed with
"georgeous Georges" showing. In
fact, it seemed as though a harder
fighter than Miles could have put
Carpenter away in either the second
or third rounds.
The dash and the spirit that marked
the Georges who once made a pill
grimage to Boyle's Thirty Acres were
tempered by cautiousness that let
Miles maintain a furnishing offensive
throughout the first five rounds. Car
pentier seemed to suffer severely from
the attack on his stomach, which Nil
les varied with 1efts to the face
In the sixth, however, Carpenter
opened with an uppercut that fell
short, landing on the body, Miles de-
clared that the blow was foul, but
Bernstein. the referee, refused to
recognize the contention. The cham
pion finished the rest of that round
and the entire seventh with difficulty.
and went down for. the final count in
the eighth when Carpenter put over
a right to the jaw.
