Layton’s name at the head of a program of any description would be sufficient to pack the house. Four years ago you could not pick up a paper that did not contain something about him, Io those days Le was in clover as it were. He was champion welter- weight of the world, and enjoyed a wide-spread popularity and patron- age. He fought many a battle, and won them all, with few exceptions. He has stood up before the mori- bund Corbett, before Fitzsimmons, and before many another celebrity, and has fought in nearly every civil- ized country in the world, even in South Africa. ‘Billy’? was defeated in Chicago four years ago for the championship and $12,000, by Tommie Ryan, and since then he has enjoyed the dis- tinction that inevitably becomes that of the defeated champion. He p! sophically observes that his place has been taken by a ‘ier man, and seems resigned, Itis only the fate ofthe fighter who gets whipped, after all, He is an autvority on sports, how- ever, and is yet a good man in the ring. He had @ penchant for knock. ing out blacksmiths, and s: hieked more blacksmiths tl other class of men. Mr. Smith, whom he will meet tomorrow night, a blacksmith, and tonight Layton will go down to Metropolis, by spe- cial invitation, and meet a named Jack Sheppard, of that place. Layton will remain in Paducah for some time. He is at the head of a big atheletic club in Hot Springs, Ark,, and is off for the summer, He will doubtless spend several” weeks here, and will incidentally awaken a great interest in sports, In October he will go to New York and there meet for a handsome purse, Jimmie Ryan, and expects to begin training by the time he is ready to leave Pa- ducab, Layton knows all that there is to know about racing, cycling, boxing, and every other sport. He was with the Kid McCoy aggregation last year, and is a great admirer of the promis- ing young pugilist. He predicts only a few months—good as new—if sold in a week, at cost, as we wish to get all sold by July 1. Call at G. B. Underwood's, 417 North Sixth street, city. 21-j4 Ww. W.

Btudics That Are Being Inaugurated for Busy People. It isa hopeful sign, hopeful in more ways than one, when business people arrange their affairs so that they can take a little time from their daily oc- cupation to study the beauties of art aud nature. The benefit of this, not only to themselves, but to their fami- lies, is past computation. Interested and encourage® by the conversation of their elders, the children will soon become enthusiastic, and will take up with a greater degree of intelligence the various branches of study, many phases of which will be to them as household words.
