The contest was over 20 rounds the stake £300 nside-wers the highest ever, offered in Scotland, The fight was keenly contested throughout, and although Brown had a slight advantage at the half way stage, he threw it away in the twelfth and thirteenth rounds, The referee was left with a difficult decision to make, and his award was probably the best that could have been given.
The pages of the Lancet during the past hundred years have had an opportunity of recording remarkable scientific history, for when the paper was started anaesthe ties had not really been discovered, and were not applied for over twenty year while antiseptics did not atrive twenty years later. The two things be tween them have revolutionised the whole

The 'sescaties saw the be ginning of the remarkable development of bacteriology, and of the numberless directions in which medicine has progress ed since what-usal to be called the germ theory of disease '! was proved sound.

Rangers have made the Glasgow Cup competition one of their stepping stones to fame. The Ibrox club played in the first final in 1888, losing to Cambuslang. and last week they contested the thirty- seventh fual against Third Lanark, whom they defeated by 3-1.

THE LEAGUE
Airdrieoniam took advantage of Ban- gery' abwage from the League competition by registering a victory that again placed them at the top of the table.
