Bet down as the most important fistic event of the last week. Jt was, however, important only in the fact that it signalized the return of the great linle featherweight champion to the ring after an absence of sever.il • months. In every other re?pect the battle was of minor consequence, as the drop T ping of Bernstein to await the count of ten was universally conceded to te only a matter of time and Terry's liumo-r on the occasion. Ncfßody really expected the ghetto boxer to win or even draw with Ihls formidable opponent. His only claim to recognition at McGovern's hands was that during the early stages of the Brook lynite's all-conquering career he manag ed to stay twenty-five rounds with and lose a decision to Sam Harris' bread- Winner. Since then Bernstein has fallen back and McGovein has steadily come forward on the road to fame and fortune. Bern stein \va3 probably well aware that he was scheduled for a thrashing at McGov ern's hands. But the loser's end of the purse was enticing, and there Is no doubt that he earned it. The man that stands up and submits his anatomy as a target for a bombardment by Terry's gloves Is fully entitled to every cent he may re ceive as consolation for the pain he un dergoes. ' ..'' With the exception of Kid Broad, who is matched to meet McGavern at . Tatter sails in the near future, there does not appear to be a single man in the feather weight ranks worthy of - being / pitted against. Frank Erne's conquerer. A- few months ago Oscar Gardner was doing grand work, and by virtue of the des perate batile he once gave Terry seemed entitled to a second chance with tho lat ter. :"• ; But although the Omaha Kid is still clamoring- for a match with McGovcrn, he is no longer entitled to the : gratifica tion of his ambition in that direction. For of late Gardner has retrograded to a pitiful extent. Quitting before Dave Sullivan, losing to Ole Ok-son and fighting . a more than doubtful draw with Billy Ryan have smirched the Omaha boxer's record badly. The truth of the matter Is that a constitution of iron could not withstand the grueling to which Oscar has submitted himself within the last few years. HEAVYWEIGHTS REMAIN QUIET. Matters are very quiet among the usu ally very loquacious members of the heavyweight brigade. With the exception of an occasional "yawp" on the part of the irrepressible Corbett. and a few salt-water maledictions hurled at the heads of O'Rourke and his black man, "VValcctt, by the much-hounded Tom Shaikey. little has been heard from the arena giants of late. Jeffries is pursuing the noiseless tenor of his way in the character of Silent Sam, j the sheriff, smiting the villain of his play nightly on the chops and basking In the grateful glare of the footlights. McCoy, at the latest reports, was spend ing his time in the fogs of grand old Lunnon and anon on the hospitable shores of the Emerald Isle. He is said to have reconsidered his determination to retire from the ring, in favor of an offer made to him by the National Sporting club to box Charley McKeever, who recently whipped Dido Plumb, the British middle weight champion, before that organiza tion. Small wonder that the kid should hesi-. tate at leaving the squared circle with such an alluring proposition in view. Should McCoy and the Quaker City boxer come together, McKeever will stay In the ring just as long as the kid choose 3 to let him. But, In view of past occur rences, McCoy Is hardly the sort of fel low to risk good money on, no matter whom he may be pitted against. His financial judgment is rather too apt to control any desire for glory that he "may be possessed of. So far Billy Madden has not succeeded In obtaining a desirable offer for a light between his Swiss giant, Gus Ruhlin, and Peter Maher. Both have signed articles for a contest, and are willing to do bat tle whenever the opportunity presents itself. WJnners nt I/akeside.

BERLIN, Nov. 5.— The highly unsatis factory condition of the Berlin criminal police, as laid "bare by the sensational evidence in the second trial of Sternherg, the rich Berlin banker, accused of an offense "against morality, and the pecu liar maner in which the case itself was prepared and has been handled, has been the talk of the whole city. In view of the clear signs of corruption and lack of discipline brought out by the proceedings, it was resolved today at a conference be tween Count Yon Buelow, the Imperial chancellor and Baron yon Rheinhaben, Prussian minister of the Interior, to over haul the Berlin police department. Immediately after the conference Baron yon Rheinhaben ordered a sharp investi gation without fear or favor. It is ex pected that a large number of the crim inal police will be disciplined, and that about a score will be dismissed, among them the chief of the criminal police, Yon Meerschie.d HuUsheimek, who was strongly compromised by the trial.

The congregation turned out en masse to do the more honor to the occasion, and such a demonstration the lives of but few have been honored with. The rectors and repr«sentatives of the Episcopal churches of the two cities were present, and, with the members of Christ church, witnessed the burning of $20,000 in mortgages, which have hung over the church since its foun dation. Fully 600 people were present. Thirty ladies assisted in serving refreshments. Guild hall, where the reception was held, was beautifi»?ly decorated with palms, ferns and American Beauty roses. Among the visiting rectors were Rev. Mr. Faude, Rev. Mr. Purves, Rev. Mr. YTebb, Rev. Mr. Jones, Rev. Mr. Holmes, Rev. Mr. Bray.' Rev«. Mr. Prosser, Rev. Mr.Tenbroeck, Rfev. Mr. Camp, Rev. Hr.

BROWN'S CAPSULES WKKJfSSE ON I HAL IIS THE CROPS OUR FOREFATHERS RAISED IN ANTE-REVOLI - TIONARY TIMES WHEAT FIRST SOWN IN 1602 First Apples In 1630, Potatoes Ten Years Earlier, Silk In 1718, While Cotton Was Intro duced in 1621. The man who orders buckwheat cak=s for breakfast, although aware that that article of diet has seen long and faithful service, will probably be surprised to learn just how far back the cultivation of buckwheat on Manhattan Island datts, says the New York Times. George k! Holmes, assistant statistician of the de partment of agriculture, in a pamphlet on the "Progress of Agriculture in the United States," says that the first culti vation of buckwheat on Manhattan Island was in 16i5 or 162 G. From the same source it is learned that the first yield of In dian corn, or maize, in any considerable quantity produced in the United States by people of English l.tood was that of forty acres in the Jamestown Colony in 1609. "Wheat was first sown in Massachusetts as early as 1602, and it was first cultivat ed in Virginia in 1611. Kyc. in New England, dates back to 1643, and perhaps to 1630, and oats and barley to Gosnald's Colony in 1602. Tt will- probably surprise a good man) persons to know that Plymouth Colony cultivated potatoes as early as '629. Mas sachusetts raisod one of its favorite prod ucts, beans, as early as lfiO2, but it wai not untit forty-two years after that date that Manhattan and Virginia began thcli cuHivatibn. "Ten fair pippins," plucked from trees planted on Governors Island, in the hor bcr of Boston, on Oct. 10, 1339, v.ere prob ably the first apples raised in this coun try, and the first nursery of young fruit trees ever planted hers was that on Gov. Enlicott's farm, in Salem, now Danvers, Mass., in 16IC. Silk culture was begun in Louisiana, by the Company c» the Wort Hi 171^ It was introduced into Georgia in 1732. Connecti cut began its cultivation in 1760. INTRODUCTION OF SUGAR. The introduction of sugar cane into Louisiana was in 17JJ, and seven years late.r the first plantation was established. The governor of the Province of Caro lina, about KM, obtained from i shir* from Madagascar tho seed of the rice which marked the beginning of its culture in the colony. A pamphlet published in London in 1609 predicts that cotton would grow as well in Virginia as in Italy, and eleven years later the author of another pamph let mentions cotton as a product abund ant In Virginia. Bancroft, however, says the first experiment in cotton cul ture in the thirteen states was made in Virginia in 1621, when the seeds were planted as an experiment, and their "plentiful coming up" was a subject of Interest. Cotton wool was listed thh-t year at Sd a pound, which indicates that it was grown earlier. When cows were so high up as to sell in 163 C at from £25 t o ~30 at Plymouth, and oxen at £40 a pair, a quart of now milk could be bought for a penny. Dairy cattle were first brought to Vir ginia in Kill, and to Plymouth in 1821, from Devonshire. Some of the Virginia cattle were from the black cattle of Spain; those brought to New York, pos ibly from the island of Texel, on the coast of Holland, were mostly the black and white Dutch cattle. THE FIRST HORSES. Columbus, on his second voyage, brought the first horses which came from Europe to the Western Hemisphere. In 1527 forty-two horses were landed in Florida, but perished soon after. The wild horses of the Southwest were prob ably the descendants of line Spanish horses abandoned hy De Soto. In 1&J0 horses were brought to Jamestown, and in 1629 they were introduced Into the colony of Massachusetts Bay. Horses were brought to New York in 1625 from Flanders. Ie is probably that sheep were first brought to Virginia in l»J09 from England; about 1625 the Dutch West India com pany brought some sheep from Holland to New York. The first swine were probably brought from Cuba by De So to in 1538, and they were landed in Florida. They were in troduced into New York in 162H by the Dutch West India company. Light one-horse wagons first appeared in Connecticut about" 1830, but as the ox cart had been largely used, it was not until ten years later that the wag ons became common enough to pass un noticed on the roads.
