Mention the nauio of one to thu other and thoy 11 aro up like a bulldog nt sight of a tramp. Nolson, usually of calm and equable temperament, fairly explodes when ho reads Wol gast's "cooky" statements. "I see whoro that little rat is go ing to let mo stay lfi rounds if I don't stall," said the Dane today. "I wonder how long ho is going to let mo stay if I do stall t" "It's awfully kind of him to let me go as far as lfi rounds, but I'm rather inclined to the belief that ho will be mighty lucky if he manages to stay that. long. If ho does man age to get through ho wilt bo the sickest boy after tho fight you ever saw. "In all my battles I have trained with but aslnglc thought, nnd that was to win, but I am making an ex ception in this case. I nin in' good condition now nnd could stop into tho ring tomorrow, but I want to bo bettor, not because I rato Wolgast highly, but because I want to give him such n whipping that ho will uovor forgot it tho longest day ho lives.

And Mr. Wolgnst holds similar views, so if tho boys fight as thoy talk, what an nwful battle they will put up on next Tuesday afternoon. : BUSINESS LOCALS Woar Kldd's Shoes. V'ou need n Huick.

DISCREDITS OLD-TIME LEADERS; IS CENSURED BOSTON, Mass., Feb. 10. Tho homo of tho rovolutionnry horo and tho haunt of tho coloninl tradition is ngog with wrnthy comment nnd poovod pride todny. Joseph Henry Stark, reputedly n historian, accord ing to his crititcs, is n tnrget for in- dignntion and abuse by tho descend ants of rovolutionnry heroes follow ing tho publication of his latest book, "The Ioyalists of Massachus etts nnd tho Other Sido of tho Amer ican Revolution." Johnny Adnms, n designing poli tician; Sammy Adams, n defaulter; John Hancock, a defaulter and a smugglor; many of tho signors of tho Declaration of Independence, also smugglers; Heiijnmin Franklin, n riflor of mail boxes, nnd Patrick Henry, nn irresponsible, is tho "low down" information in the history edited by Mr. Stark. In fact, Georgo Washington appears to have boon tho only honest man in the col ouioB nt tho timo of tho rovolution nry war. "In Virginia," writes Stnrk, "tho rovolutionnry movement of tho poor white soldior "Crackers," led by Patrick Honry, was against tho plantor nristocrncy. Pntrick Honry was ono of tho most unreliable men living." Iluicks do tho work. HURRY! HURRY!! HURRY!!!
