Cora Dwight, after the fashion
of other successful authors, had
recently bought a house. It was
in East Thirty.fifth street, not far
from the one at present occupied
by Madame Zattiany, but nearer
Lexington avenue. 1t was one Of
the old monotonous brownstone
houses, but with a southern ex-
posuTe," and the former owner had
removed the front steps and re-
modelled the lower floor.
The dining room, on the left of
the entrance, was a long admira-
bly, proportioned room, and the
large room above, which embraced
the entire floor, Miss Dwight had
converted into a library both stump
tuous and stately. She had bought
her furniture at auction that it
might not look too new, and on the
longer walls were bookcases seven
feet high She had collected
small library before the war; and
for the many other books, some of
them rare and all highly val
ued by their present possessor, she
had haunted secondhand book
shops.
The prevailing tone of the room
was brown and gold, enlivened dis
creetly with red. and the chairs
and lounges were deep and COM
Portable. A large davenport stood
before the fireplace, which had
been rebuilt for logs. There was
victrola in one corner, for Miss
Dwight was amenable if her guests
were seized with the desire to jazz,
and a grand piano stood near the
lower windows. The only evil
deuce of sheer femininity was a
tea table furnished with old pieces
of silver she had picked up in
France The dining room below
was a trife gayeT in effect; the
walls and curtains were .

river eleven. In games played to
date this season both combinations
have about an equal record.
Captain "Mush" Sheppard will be
the central figure in South Amboy's
end of the contest at South River, as
much is depended upon him for
points from the kicking end, while
Geant, star quarterback of the local
team. will also be counted on plenty
for a victory. aThese two players
have been highly responsible for
wins collected for the local team on
the gridiron this term.

eleven. This season was scheduled
against Perth Amboy and If the high
school boys carry home the goods to-
morrow, and Coach Glt IS and his CO.

likely that a post season game will
be carded between the locals and the

celled the first game.
Final practive was held yesterday
afternoon, save for a little talk by
the coach and light signal drill this
afternoon and the high school will be
all set to face the up county team.
There will be no real change in the

case In previous encounters of the

BOXING CLUB
HAS LICENSE
National Sport Club Receives
State License for One
Year-Dated Nov. 21

Officials of the National Sporting
Club, the local boxing organization,
are in receipt of a yearly boxing IL
cense from the state commissioners.
This license entities the club to run
boxing shows in this city.
Four shows were put on by the
local organization of which Ed
Mooney" Poulsen, is matchmaker
the officials having received special
permission to run these events. With
the license in their possession, the
club can now run shows in the Audi
torium for the balance of a year. The
license is dated November 21.
The next show of the club will be
run in the New Brunswick avenue
Auditorium, week from next Fri
day night, December z. The first
two shows of the club were run on
Tuesday night and the last two on
Friday night. So far the latter night
apparently appears to be the best
so it is likely that the semi-weelxly
bouts will be continued on this
night.
1t is understood that the officials
originally planned to run ten shows
in all, but with the state license in
their possession, there is every rea-
son to believe that they will con-
tinue the indoor events until the
warm weather arrives and If out
door bouts are not carded, the club
will lay off until the fall

Alley League Match
Standing in Senior Y M. G. A. Bowl

Captain Birden Golden's team
moved up to tie for second place
last night when it took three straight
games from Capt. Al Simonsen's
outfit. Simonsen's team was handi-
capped in not having Van Hise on
hand while in the first game Lloyd
johnson also was missing, making it
necessary to take two blind scores
of 1875.
Tilp's pinning was the feature of
the night, the Golden anchor man
making a high score of 223 in the
first game followed by 206 and 154
which gave him a high average of
1874 Henry Simonsen took high
average honors for the losers with
177, his brother AL being a close
second with 176.
In the initial game of the night
Golden's men won by 12S pins, Tilp's
223 and O'Gorman's 201 helping
considerably. The second game was
won by only eleven pins Tilp again
being high with 206. In the last
game the margin was cut down to
nine pins, Hilsdorf's 100 being high

will be rolled on Friday night when
