Some ten days ago sh<Kwas taken sick, suffering from a cold, which seemed to settle on her lungs. She has grown gradually weaker since that time.

Governor Marshall has had several fits about boxing contests in Gary and has ordered Sheriff Grant to place all fighters and promoters under arrest, but in Indianapolis he lets prizefighting go unmolested and last night “Young” Sayler, of Indianapolis, and “Matty” Baldwin fought ten rounds at the state capital. These contests are plainly prohibited by law, but the governor believes in interpreting law to please a few Influential sports. The influence is lacking at Gary and hence the instructions to Sheriff Grant. '" * ■■! ■ 1.1 .LIU-IM —«LI ! - - ■— W. H". Wells was down from DeMotta today to have his eyes tested for glasses.
