The Chicago Record-Herald, a newspaper that recently opposed Mayor Dunn and supported Mr. Bus- se, the republican nominee, says: “Mayor Bugee’s course in ignoring the offe of the hundred saloon- keepers recently convicted in the criminal court of violating the state laws, and permitting them to retain their licenses and continue their of- fenses, has just this effect. It ts a| mistake to say that Mayor Busse is the patron of the liquor interests of 'Chicago.

The blow which knocked out Corbett was a revelation to the prize fighters. From the earliest days of the ring the knock-out blow was aimed for the jaw, the temple or the Jugular vein, Stomach punches were thrown in to worry and weary the fighter, but if a scientific man had told one of the old fighters that the most vulnerable spot was the region of | the stomach, he’d have laughed at him for anignoramus, Dr. Pierce is bringing public a parallel fact; that is the most vulnerable onan ring as well asin it.
