Poor oli! Krie! Any one who would be so heartless and inconsiderate of the dear road's feelings ajid welfare as to pilfer one of Its revenue raisers ought to have swift punishment meted out to him or her. To be accurate, one hundred and sixty-two sticks of gum were taken from the machine. Think of the Krie being the means whereby one hundred and sixtytwo separate and distinct slices of Joy is circulated.

Mr. New said the Plymouth delegations were very vigorous in presenting the claims of their candidates. Dr. S. C. Loring, Herbert E. Hess and F. 13. Carn are the three applicants. It has been announced in a dispatch from Washington that President Taft will probably give some attention to three or four of the Indiana postofffc; appointments while he is here on the Fourth, but whether he will take tip the Plymouth case is not known. There are some who believe that he will find out enough about some of the postoffic? fights in Indiana on the Fourth to enable him to settle some of them and announce some appointments when he returns to Washington.

Sax put the proposition up to the contestants and they positively declined to appear at the Majestic. Back of the smashing of the bolng plans there are many little undercurrents.

C. of Gary on the afternoon of July . I Promoters of the Gary club blame other men who have tried to promotj fights in the steel town. It was learned from good authority yesterday that certain persons, jealous of the succesj which those Interested in the National A. C. have had In the past, sent personal leters to the governor of Indiana, the sheriff, and the state's attorney, in

which it was stated that the ThompsonBrown bout would result in a brutal prise fight, which Is contrary to the boxing laws of the Hoosler state. All kinds of stories were going the rounds yesterday to explain the action. Despite the disappointment and loss of money which will result from the
