Pugilistic history made in a huga pine board arena In Jersey City Saturday afternoon, wheu Jack Dempsey defended hla heavy weight championship against the fistic challenge of Georges Carpentler Dempsey retained the championship when he knocked out Carpentler, the French challenger, in the fourth round. Carpentler finished flat on his face, his legs and arms out-stretched. Dompsey knocked him out a few sec onds fater the fourth round opened, sending him heavily to the canvas with a short right hook to tho chin. The actual time of fighting In the' fourth round was one m.nute ana sixteen seconds. Previous to the knockout, Carpen tier was floored with a left to tho body and a right to the chin. Carpentler took a count of nine be fore springing to his feet, where the grim, determined Dempsey measured him with a punch to the chlu which ended the battle. Seats were provided for more than 91,000 spectators. A purse of $300,000 was given by Promoter RIckard. Of this huge sum, an amount far In excess of any financial compensation ever ofTered pugilists in the past, Demp sey received $300,000 and Carpentler $200,000. Ticket sales are believed to have amounted to nearly $17500,000. It Is estimated that the purse, cost of arena and numerous overhead expenses will mount close to $1,000,000. RIckard, Dempsey and Carpentier are not the only persons to profit by the "battle of the century," as the contest has been aptly named. Uucle Sam will take close to $500,000 under the income tax laws. CUPID IN RAGS By CARRIE M. PALMf.

SUMMARY DISMISSAL OF SOLDIERS OPPOSED Washington, D. C President Hard Ing informed congress that while he had signed the army appropriation bill with its provision for a reduction of the regular army to 150,000 men by next October 1, It might be neces sary to ask for a modification of the measure later to avoid embarrassment to the secretary of war. The executive declared In a special message sent to both the senate and the house that summary dismissal from the array of men who had en listed for a longer period than Oc- ober 1 would seem to involve a re pudiation of a moral obligation by the government which would have Its effect upon the morale of the army and possibly Influence enlistments In the future. The nature of the modification which might be asked for later was not disclosed, nor did the president explain hew it was proposed to meet the moral obligation to the men and at the same time carry out the direc tions of congress to reduce the force by some 70,000 men in the next three months. Secretary Weeks, in discussing the bill, said that if the war department succeeded in meeting the limitations imposed by congress, some 30,000 civilian employes of the army, be sides the 70,000 enlisted men, would be thrown on the labor market.

"lOlalne" brought hack poignantly with a little shiver of humiliation, of which 8he whs ashamed, hut which she could not suppress, the day when Philip had brought his aristocratic mother imd sister to call, and dear old Aunt Mar tha's Invitation to stay to supper, eut en In the spotless little kitchen. Well, she didn't have to bother about thinking of going to the wedding, any way, that was out of the question, l'hll had only sent the Invitation to le po lite, lie knew hhe couldn't afford to go to New York, and didn't have any clothes but the sprigged dimity which slu had worn on that never-to he-forgotten night when she hud met Mm. And then he had tfone buck to college and suddenly his letters had cea.-ed and Ami wus left with a vacuum which nothing could till. Hut a wedding present she simply must send n wedding present, and the thought presented a serious problem. Ann's soul carried a weighty secret, one which she couldn't share with lov ing, inlHiindersiandlng Aunt inba, who couldn't see any difTerei e be tween her heloved niece with her sweet, simple wuys and sophisticated Elaine Cart a ret, unless, indeed, the difference was greatly in favor of Ann. Aunt Murtha had a few vague Idea about trusting muldens and men who loved and rode away, and her loyal heart deeply resented Philip Cartaret't cavalier behavior, but she respected Ann's reticence and his name was never mentioned between them. Ann had subscribed to a number of New York papers since Philip had left, a terrible eitravagance, and every morning when the mall came In she hastened to the leafy retreat which she and Phil had discovered and made their own, and with beating heart eag erly scanned the news of the great city, which was only a name to her, as it seemed to bring Philip and his world nearer. This morning she read the pages mechanically, her subconscious mind thinking wedding present. "Hand-Made Rag Kugs for Sale." Hag rugs! She caught her breath. Instantly her mind registered a picture of Klnlne's spontaneous enthusiasm over the beautifully braided ruir which Ann herself had made from ne cessity. And Klaine bad said they were all the ruge In New York and people were paying all kinds of prices for them. The next few days were busy ones. Aunt Martha dyed and Ann's busy fin gers tore and braided and sewed. Aunt Martlia grumbled cheerfully over the dainty colors which Ann Insisted should go In, her prosaic soul craving serviceable colors, but the rug that grew under the nimble fingers of the girl who wus weaving ull the beauty of her own love drama into the reality of another's was a fairy rug of dainty blue and pink and white, with daring dashes of hlr ck, and as u piece de re sistance, the center was made from the odds and ends of the material left from the very same sprigged muslin which riilllp had so loved to see his "Dream Girl" wear. At last It was done and dispatched, the rosy cloud in which Ann had been living mysteriously disappeared and life became once more dull gray and uie (jays empty. A few days before the wedding the paper contained an account of the com ing ceremony, a list of the fashionable bridesmaids and of the beautiful, cost ly gifts which hud been sent the pros pectlve bride. As she read, Ann's face burned with shame. Ail at once her gift, into which she had woven so much love, seemed ridiculous, and her very soul seemed to shrink 'from hu miliation. Even the eugerly walted for acknowledgment, if only a formal one, had not arrived. So deep was her depression that even the crackling brunches did not break her reverie until a deep, vibrant voice startled her Into almost unbeliev able ecstasy. She cured not one whit ior uis explanations. The past was gone, the present was enough. Ihit the future: well, Elaine's wedding was a double one and Philip always teaslna- .j u.oi uuui uriues were total ly eclipsed by the admiration accorded o certain rag rutf.
