Cattle and sheep are most suscept-

What Is 1t?

1t Is duty both useful and neces-
sary; 1t is esteemed great virtue,
but few possess it; it is found in the
lower rs well as the higher circles of
life, and is often exhausted and as
often renewed. Our sufferings are
rendered lighter by it, and our trials
are softened; 1t gives contentment to
the mind and ease to the conscience,
to the afflicted hope and to the
mournful consolation. What is it?
Answer.-Patience.

Wills 0utboxes His Man Gets Decision
 By Referee Sullivan

BOYLES THIRTY ACRES, Jer- sey City, Sept. 12.-Harry Wills, known in pugilistic circles as the Black Panther" easily gained the unofficial decision over Angel Firpo, Hthe Bull of the Pampas at the end of 12 round no decision fight, in the presence of ninety thousand peo- pie.
 Wills stepped out into the lead with the opening of the gong and never once relinguished it for the rest of his fstic journey.
 In the first round, Wills dropped the South American to the canvas with stiff right to the jaw. In the second round, terrific punch roped Firpo and all of his bull-like strength couldn't retain him so as to stand off the terrific beating which was in store for him and which he took from Wills before the end of the round.
 For the remainder of the bout the Negro employed his usual tactics of hitting and holding, and Firpo being punished severely by the methods of Wills fighting protested to the ref cree, Danny Sullivan. Firpo's pro- tests didn't help much as Wills, thru the entire bout used the same unfair way. Firpo was on the defensive during the entire bout.
