Joe Jeanette, who fougnt Carpentier as recently as last March, is authority for tlie statem’ent that ‘he Trench champion is rm enlarged edition of “Teivible Terry” McGovern at the zenith of his power. In reviewing his tight with Carpentier upon his return to America, Jeanette said to the writer: “Don’t make any mistake about Car pentier being dependent upon his clever ness to win his ring battles. He is all that Terry McGovern was in the days of yore. Carpentier never stops rushing :itrd is constantly trailing his long arms at his opponent, lie took me by surprise by his rushing tactics, and no on* in the club was more astounded when tlie ref eree awarded the decision to me a ft. eft* fifteen rounds of furious fighting. That was one time T got away with something. Demonstrated. “Carpentier is not lacking a wallop, either. This he forcefully demonstrated to me when he sent me flat on my back In the very first round. A right hook did the trick. My jaw soon swelled to twice its normal size. That’s how havd j that French boy can hit.” So it looks as though Mr. Gunboat ! Smith has undertaken a man-sized job • when he sailed across the sea to ex- 1 change punches with the best France has J to offer in the fighting line. The sinewy Buckley protegee is not the guinest man in the world, contrary to the general opinion. Ts there Is a saffron vein in the person of Smith it will be brought j to the suVface in this fight, for Car- ; pentier will fight toe to toe with the suposedlv deadly puncher. One or the other will surely succumb to the bom bardment. ' If the fight goes over ten rounds, we are inclined to the belief that Smith will seek an exit from the ring to get away from this Gallic won der. Holy Terror. Smith is of the tempestuous sort, and unless he lands his knockout punch in iHE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. the early rounds, becomes easily dis couraged. Carpentier is a tVanquil lad outside of the ring, but once lie dons the padded mit, he is a holy terror. Smith will undoubtedly go into the fray a pronounced favorite. This should show some valuable additions to his fighting category. It will be remem bered dfrliat the Frenchman refereed the Johns#*Moran fight. Carpentier is said to have watched Johnson’s work intent ly with a view of adopting some of the negro’s methods of attack and defense. In his training Carpentier has practiced some little tricks of Johnson’s, and should be proficient in their execution by the time he enters the ring to fight Smith. Champion Johnson will appear at the ringside to take a close slant at his pros pective opponents. He has already con sented to fight the winner and this in centive should make the fight all the more bitterly contested. Smith’s Ten Principal Fights.

MINUTES IN MANHATTAN (By Gotham Knickerbocker). New York.—When in Home do as the Romans do. When in New York throw' bombs. That is the only way to keep even with the game. A Naw Yorker must get acclimated to bombs and bomb-throwing, bomb factories and premature bomb explosions. You may not believe this because you don’t live in New York, but let me remark right here that the center of the bomb zone hereabouts is the , marble and gilt police headquarters, I home of a thousand anti-bomb enthu siasts, at Centre and Broome Streets, and there is no palace so exalted home so humble that the bomb like' i the useless Christmas gift is un known. | I live in an elevator apartment much better than I can aiford on Washington Heights and 1 congratu lated myself that the altitude was too great for bombs. But I was self de luded. New York apartment houses are, or should be, celebrated for tl\p most 1 extreme luxuries and the most aHtroc ious crudities of civilization on the face of the twentieth century earth. One of the most highly amusing institutions of apartment houses is ths purchase of ice. Ice is like chew ing gum and almond chocolate, bars in Manhattan, dispensed everywhere. Some one has spoken of an “lee -Tl'USt.” I could never find this benefi cent institution. If it is still strug gling along it has my moral support. But all the ice I could ever locate was in the possession of certain Cal i abiians and Olcilians with wide rinH and large earrings, who dwell in cel lars of our apatrnent. Trere was sharp rivalry between them, but It. never took the form of price cutting. There would come a heavy bhzz at the damh waiter. “This is the ice man. Any ice to ! day? " * . I ‘Yes, .foe, ten-rent piece. I A few minutes later another buzz j at the dumb waiter and up it would ! come, a pitiful little chunk wiggling weakly back and forth on the croak ing dumb waiter and so obviously on its legs that one thust It hastily into the refrigerator for fear it might die in transit. “Ten-cent piece'’ meant that amount which a tenth of a dol lar would buy at the current retail price for lee. So the theory it one stopped to reason. Tew did that. One shouted: “Give me a decent piece this time, Joe; that last was terrible." Then would come up a fairly re spectable piecd with profuse Neapoli tan apologies but the next day Ice would be back to its old basis. Then something dreadful happened. Our superintendent—Janitor Is now obsolete—went about denouncing the “Joes" as thieves and all the tenants were «o wrouKlit up that they finally consented to take Ice from ' Mr. John’’- thus the regular style of the New York apartment house superin tendent. The “Joes” were barred from the basement where they nal flourished 52 weeks in the year among the feet of the dumb waiters; and “Mr. John” started his service of Ice, giving perhaps slightly fatter hunks than did the Calabrians, but gener osity Is characteristic of new mercan tile enterprises. “Bang!" . Our dreams of being outside the New York bpmb zone were shattered. Considerable Binoke was Issuing from the basement and scouting parties told us that Mr John's department of Ice waa wrecked. We all Informed the police It was an outrage of course, and there was an "investigalion.” t "Bang!” , .. This time In the middle of the night Many of the more tempera mental tenants troop to the fire as cape In pajamas and what nols. Windows In the basement positively broken and by an Italian bomb. One woman whispered time with tears in her eyes she considered It as much a disgrace as to be plagued with that widely disseminated human compan lon of the night season, which one never names frequently pursues. Just at present we are awaiting Bomb No, 2. This Is bound to be a good one 1 am assured by expert* on the subject There were In the year 1913, *<: cording to the police, slightly more than 100 bombs exploded in Mr.-ater New York. 1 eau assure you this Is THE BATTLE FOR THE FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE OF THE SOUTH! An Open Letter From a Prominent Banker “Thomson, Georgia, July 9th, 1914. Mr. H. C. Lorirk. The Empire Life Insurance Company, Augusta, Georgia. Dear Sir: l ha\e Just read with surprise the action taken, or undertaken, in Atlanta yesterday to place The Empire Life Insurance Company in the hands of a receiver. The first impression made was that the Georgia Leg islature now In session should ai once pass a law forbidding any individual from taking action of this nature against any firm or corporation without V first giving bond to protect other interested parties. As a large policy holder in The Empire Life, I protest against the action taken by one credi tor with a disputed and unproven claim, and 1 suggest to the many policy holders of the company in Augusta that we go in a body to Atlanta on the 18th, 'and protest against such action. While, of course. The Empire Company will be represented by able attorneys and will defeat the at tempt made to wreck this growing Southern Company, yet the public should show' its contempt by appearing in open court and denounce the action. I will join the. Augusta boys in this fight. A fight not alone for our policy rights but for Southern rights as well. The battle for the finan cial independence of the South will suffer a setback again if such a large and prosperous company is made to suffer in this way. The policy holders in The Empire Life should not get discouraged and allow agents representing other foreign companies to induce them to cancel their policies; they should hold what they have and Join in the. fight to protect it from assault. Yours very truly, (Signed) J. T. NEAL. (President Bank of Thomson, Director Georgia Railroad.) a gross underestimate, I( does a great Injustice to the latest metropol itan pastime. Bomb-throwing Is the greatest gift which the men from sunny Italy have brought to the Wes tern World and It should have a Tnir show. Every month the police fi nally crush the "bomb trust,’’ dis cover and bring into court the central factory of all metropolitan bomb throwers, anil arrest and extract con lessions from bomb-planters by the dozen. But the people’s diversions cannot be wrenched from them so easily. Bomb-throwing can no more be uprooted in New York than play ing ball in the street. Both are de manded by our citizens and we must have them. One never "makes an at tack” on a political opponent these days. One "tiirows a bomb Into the enemy's camp”—see newspapers. And there is much to lie said for bomb throwing. It does not kill nearly so many persons as football. It does not induce tatty degeneration of the heart if one later takes up a seden tary life. It takes its devotee into tlie open air and makes him quick wit tod and resourceful. It is a simple pleasure, not leading to drink, drugs or degeneracy. It Is comparatively cheap and easy to learn and it can be taken up by old as well as young. What the Fourth of July was once homli-throwing Is now The unsafe and Insane Fourth lasted ahont 125 years before It whs devitalized and perhaps It. will take as long belore the reformers will he aide to convince our hetrogerieous population it Is an un social act tiyldow up habitations with bombs.
