NEW ORLBANS, March 1. — Johnny Coulon, bantam welght champlon, scored a knockout in the ninteenth round of his battle with Jem Kenrick, the English claimant of this title, late yesterday. This 18 Coulon’s second victory over Ken- rick within three weeks. In the first match he was given the decision at the end of the tenth round. A crowd of about 10,000 people surrounded the west athletic ‘club arena at MeDon- oughville, just across the river from New Orleans ‘and shouted themselves hoarse when the American put the tired Britisher down and practically .out with a welght blow over the heart. Kenrick staggered to his feet in a tottering condition just be- fore the referee counted him out. It was apparent, however, that he had been fin- ished and the fight was awarded to Coulon. For the first five rounds the bout was fast and spirited with honors even. After the fifth round Coulon began lo wear his opponent out and in the sixteenth, seven- teenth and eighteenth rounds he was floored repeatedly. Coulon finished ' the flght unmarked and fo' all appearances as fresh as when he started, Coulon's wonderfully fast work was a feature and he seemed confident of victory from the tap of the gong. Coulon's father and manager, was his ohief second. Konrick, ‘veteran of ten. years' ring ex- perience. fought caretully and agressively, ut glowed down perceptibly 'toward™ the last. ~ Jack Grace, veteran tighter and trainer, was chief second for the Brifisher. Lefts to face and rights'to stomach ' wers used by Coulon many times. He played for Kenrick's body considerably in the early rounds, and later split Jem's lips and nose with straight punches to the face. The fight was advertised to_ be. for a percentage and $1.000 bet, but Coulon was a hot favorite, in the betting. Two and one and two_and ‘a half to one were the odds agalnst Kenrick at the ringside, but there ere fow takers, Coulon who finighed fresh and virtually unmarked embrate Kenrick and supported the beaten man to his corner at the end of the bout and re- celved a great ovation.

PLATT DIES SUDDENLY Brief Attack. tmlG IN ENFEEBLED CONDITION Sons Had Just Left Usunl Health—Was Empire Him Power ate for Many NEW YORK, March 7.—~Thomas Collier Platt, formerly United States senator form New York and for many years a na- tional figure in republican politics, died at 3:4 o'clock Sunday in the apar! ment of Mr. and Mrs. Gustay Abele on West Eleventh street from whom he had rented three rooms for the last four years. Mrs. Abele had been his nurse. Dr. Paul Auterbridge, his physiclan, said and acute Bright's disease. The body was removed tonight to the home of Frank H. Platt, his son and will be taken Tues- day place, where it will be burled. Funeral services will be held Wednesday at the Presbyterian church In Owego. The end was startlingly sudden. An hour before the senator died his two sons, Frank and Edward, with their families, and his widowed son, Harry, with the latter's daughter, Charlotte, and son, Sher- man bad left the house, after their usual Sunday visit. The senator sald at that time that he felt very well and thought he would read the Sunday papers. At § o'clock he was taken with a fainting spell and Dr. Auterbridge was hurriedly called. Family at Bedside. The famlly was notitied and returned in hasta. Mr. Platt recovered from his first lapse, but sank into unconsclousness again at 3:30 and dled fifteen minutes later, The relatives were all at the bedside. Only last Wednesday Senator Platt was at his office down town. For several years he hud been in feeble health and latterly the use of his legs had almost deserted him, but his condition until today was not looked upon as more serious than usual, although a physiclan called upon him daily. Thursday at breacfast the senator had a momentary fainting spell, but raillied quickly. A year ago his feebleness was markedly accentuated and his life was despaired of for a period, but with re- markable vitality he recovered and went about his business as usual. Dr. Auterbridge said tonight that the vi- tality of his patfent was truly unusual. In spite of his feebleness he took an active interest in affairs and refused to neglect his business, until the dictates of nature imposed a rest. He was out of bed at 7 o'clock every morning and always early at his oftice. \ No pallbearers have yet been named. In fact, all the family were so prostrated by the unexpected suddenness of the senator's death that they were unable to discuss it fn any manner for the public. Platt National Figure. Thomas Colller Platt, the “Easy Boss” of earlier and brighter days, was for many years not only the republican leader of his state, but a figure in national politics shoulder to shoulder with. men of such rank as the late Mathew Stanley Quay of Pennsylvania. Both were men of excep- tional intellectual attainments, and both turned them, with signal success, to party organization, Quay died still a power; Platt outlived his time and fell himself in late years out of touch with the moving spirit of. events, 8 Ay “In Twenty -Years in Congress,” James G. Blaine described Platt as “A business man of great personal popularity. He has an aptitude for public affairs, and is a man of strong Influence in his state. He is no debater, but has strong common sense and a quick judgment of men." Yet with all his native judgment, wide experience and skill as an organizer it became the fate of Platt to win remem- brance more for his associations with others than for anything he did of his own Initia- tive. Twice In his life Platt was the cen- ter of the national stage. Once when he re- signed with Roscoe Conkling from the United States senate, and was Instantly nicknamed “‘Me Too, Platt,” and once when he induced Theodore Roosevelt to run for vice president with McKinley, very much against Roosevelt's better judgment, in the face of his repeated declarations that noth- ing could induce him to accept the nomin- ation. Irony of His Farte. There could not be a better instance of “Platt’s skill” in persuasion and manipula- tion or of the irony that mocked his ripest wisdom. McKinley was shot. Rooseyelt be- came president and the days of Platt's domination in the state lapsed. His bodily strength declined rapidly. He made a sec- ond marriage which ended In the courts and he was sued by Mae Wood, formerly a clerk in the government employ, for a divorce on the strength of a third marriage never proved to have taken place. The episode with Conkliing, which was not exceeded in public excitement, say the newspaper flles of that day, by any event in_the clvil war was as follow: Platt was elected to the senate in 1851 He and his colleague, Conkling, became em- brolled with President Garfield in a bitter controversy over the appolntment of Wil- liam ‘H. Robértson to'be collector of’ the port of New York. The nomination was distasteful to the New York ‘orgamation and both Platt and Conkling, refused to confirm It in the senate, Thereupon Presi- dent Garfleld withdrew all other New York | nominations made at their instance, among which were those of Stewart' L. Woodford to be United States distriet attorney ‘and Lou F. Payn, recently remémbered as an “accelerator gf public opini n," to be Unitel States marshal Versatility and Powe Finding themselves in a hopeleas d¢ lock, Platt and Conklin both * resigned of 1583 and dled of expommre. Platt way | supposed to be frozen out of politics. Noth ing of the sort—he turned his attention fo of New York countles, became state leader in 1904 and In 1897 was elected a second time to the United States senate, sig- ceeding David Bennett Hill. ¥ He fell out with Governor Frank Black apd to defeat his renomination put forward Theodore Roosevelt, & type whose unde- veloped possibilities he did not justly esti- mate. It was Roosevelt's rapld progress toward popularity and power that later led Platt to suggest him for, the vigs presidency, hoping that in the quiet of that ignified office he might be forgotten Puritan Ancestry. Platt was born in Owego, Tioga county, New York, on July 15, 188 of Puritan - cestry. He entered Yale college with the class of 184, but Jeft In the middle of his junior year because of il health.

AFRATRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Commercial Club Worried About Unsightly Walks Over City. BRICKS ON POOR FOUNDATIONS Whole Blocks Have Become Impaw- sable—Laymen’s Movement Given Strong Boost at Methodist Meeting. The folly of putting down brick side- walks on an insufficlent foundation has been {llustrated in scores of places in South Omaha with these mild days of spring. The freezing of the winter has heaved the ground and the sand foundations have be- come saturated with water and in numer- ous places have developed a quicksand which makes every brick yield under the | foot. Many walks have bulged in the mid- dle until the mud underneath has forced its way up through and overturned the brick for a block a: a time. This is fl- lustrated by the walks on Twenty-fourth street between E and F streets, between G and H streets and in numerous other sec- tions. In some of these walks water pipes | have broken under them which causes them to be undermined. The walks may settle | down again in two or ihree weeks, but in the cases mentioned It 1s likely they may have to be relaid. This condition of the sidewalks led the Commercial club to take action at its last | weekly meeting. Cognizance was taken of | | the dungerous condition of the walks on Twenty-fourth street between M and L and between L and K streets. | | The least expensive walk, according to | |the city engineer is a good grade of ce- | | ment. The first cost is great, but the dura- | it by far the most desirable. These mat- ters will probably be a subject for discus- {slon at the council meeting this evening. | ! The council meeting will be further im- | portant because of the reception of bids for | about $160.000 paving bonds.

The Laymen's missionary movement was given a boost last night in an enthusiastic | imeeting beld at the First Methodist church. The South Omaha organization has been | |@etiye for the last iwo weeks, that is nh\t'us it was organized, and the meeting flast nlght was the first of a number to be teld in<the sucéeeding weeks of the pro- posed campaign. The meeting yas ad- dressed by A W. Dickason of Toledo, O., ® man who has been around the world making & thorough, study of missions from first hands. He was full of his subject and Was especially impressed . with the lm- portance of the educatiopal, medicinal anl clvic features of the work. The moder missionary seeks to inculcate first of ali cleanliness, sanitation, health, education and clvic pride. In the early days of mis sions especlaily those of the Spanish Catho lic church much harm was done to the Orlentals because as soon as the readily accepted doctrines had gained a firm foot Ing the greed of the Spanish people incul cated through the new zeai, a strife against the established governments. This Is the thing, which closed the ports of Japan and China to all foreign Influence for more than %0 years. The new system Is to develop patriotism and publicly proclaim loyalty to the government wherever that would be effective.
