of Washington, in the fifth round
of the opener.
Altogether, the card proved

fact that he got no worse than
an even break at the gate, Blick

unconditional activities in the
Maryland metropolis.
Bowie Has Fine Plant.
"URF devotces to the num-
Der of some 10000 glimpsed
the spiftiest racing plant in
- this section at Bowie yes
tcrday, when they turned out for
the opening of the Southern
Maryland Agricultural Associa-
tion's Fall meeting.
In getting the plant ready in the
short time since fire destroyed
the old stands Jim O'Hara and his
staff accomplished a notable feat
and nothing but commendation
was heard for the lines on which
the structure has been erected.
Plenty of space between the rows
of seats, wide aisles, facilities for
laying and collecting wagcrs that
could hardly be improved on and
an enormous steel and concrete
pile that provides shelter for a
larger number of persons than
any track in Maryland, in addi-
ton to commodious clubhouse
reservation, made distinct hit
with the raccgoers.
In addition there is employed
system of amplihers that added
much to the enjoyment of the
spectators. In addition to trans
mitting music in the off periods
the oud-speakcrs furnished up
to-the- minute information regard
ing scratches and weights, as well
as accounts of the races as they
were being run. and manning the
mike was an announcer who
could be understood.
Remade Track Is Fast.
Not only has the comfort of
patrons been looked after in more
than adequate manner, the racing
strip itself has been vastly i'm
proved over the deep, sandy going
that used to prevail.
A thorough revamping of the
strip with new top dressing has
speeded it up to such an extent
that four track records went bv
the board in the first OF the r.
dav session yesterday.
' But one CRITICISM can be voiced
of the made-over Bowie plant,
and that is the poor condition of
the inadequate stretch of some
two miles of road leading from
the pike to the inclosure. This,
no doubt, will be attended to in
time. Then Bowie will be a model
plant.

NJ ARTY G l. l. A u n X,
M promising young heavy
V weight battIer, proved to
4 4 a crowd of some 1000
ring fans at the 104th Medical
Regiment Armory, at Baltimore,
last night, that he is Just that.
After appearing greatly OUT
cIassed by the experienced Joe
Lehman in the early sessions OF
the IO-round main go of the card
arranged by Matchmaker frankie
Mann for Promoter John S. B'ick.
the youthful Gallagher got his
bearings, and with an exhibition
as notable for courage as stamina
fairly earned a draw.
During the first three frames it
seemed that Gallagher would get
nothing more than good lesson
in the art of swapping punches
from his seasoned opponent, but
as the milling progressed the
Capital Irishman grew more con-
fcent, and at one time in the
ninth had the crowd on its feet
clamoring for X. o.
That Gallagher was unable to
stop his adversary may be at
tributcd more to his greenness
than anything else. From midway
of the bout to its close there was
not a single round in which he
failed to sting Lehman, but al
ways when the spectators were
worked to a pitch where they ex-
pected a kill. Marty would apply
the brakes and merely coast.
1t was this failure to follow up
his advantages that euchered Gall
lagher out of the decision and
lost him his chance to put over a
haymakcr. Having celebrated his
twentieth birthday less than two
weeks ago, the product of WASH
ington's Foggy Bottom cannot be
expected to display the ring
finesse that can be acquired only
with long service, but that he is
coming along nicely was the ver-
dict of hundreds of CAPITAL fans
who n7ade the trip to the Monu-
mental City.
Considerable improvement in
both speed and defensive ability,
especially in the matter of protect
ing himself at close quarters, was
observed by the ringworn,s, who
also saw Gallagher in his profess
sionaI debut against Henry Lamar
at Silver Spring couple of
months ago, and those of his ad-
mirers who motored over for the
bout last night feel that he has
something besides strength and
willingness with which to seek
progress along the trail to fame
and fortune in the ring.
Despite the size of principals
Gallagher weighing lo1 and Loh-
man 8 pounds Iess--there was
plenty of action in the main event,
and this was true in even greater
measure of the Semi-final, in
which Eddie Buell., who makes
his home here, outfought Joe
Belmont, Baltimore bantam, to
earn the unanimous decision of
/, the judges.
Handicapped as he is by loss
of vision in his left eye, and con-
ceding 5 pounds to his opponent.
Buell. put up a whale of scrap.
He displayed ring generalship of
a high order and snappy right,
with plenty of steam in it, and
finished strong against willing
mixer to obtain a well earned ver-
dict.
In the second bout of the eve-
ming Sailcr Mckenna of the Naval
Air Station, Washington, earned
a decision over Andy Kelley of
Baltimore, largely through his ag-
gressiveness, and Ray Bowen, one
of the numerous battlers of that
name, stopped Sailor Oden. also

down in his seat to enjoy the re.

of their parents had left Manon in
his care. She was seventeen and
an incumbrance to his continued
pursuit of pleasure if left on his
hands in Paris.
Lescauts experience with wo-
men was eXtensive-in one class
He knew only the women who lived
by the violence of their desires.
Jades exquisite only in their physi-
cal appeal. Women who were al
ways ready to play the game of
life for however much they could
get out of it. A girl Of Manon's
fine sensibilities was new crea-
ture to him and he treated her as
a worthless inheritance to be put
out of sight and mind at as small
expense as possible.
But 1t was not destined that all
men should consider Manon in this
same light.
Until now she had had no con-
tact with the world and its crea-
lures. Her character was as beau

thought the best of everyone and
knew nothing of the existence of
evil,
Manon's youth and loneliness

had given him time to accumulate
vast fortune and to spend 1t on
women who layished the fever of
their experienced caresses on him
