At five he had begun to stir and he staggered to hla feet just in time to avoid the "Out."

Ewin was on him like a flask and Fraggott, wavering on his feet and with hands at his side took another right to the chin and hit the canvas.

The referee, Mr. H. G. Sheldon, was in the ring by now and ordered Ein to his corner.

Fraggott, too, dazed "to take-full advantage of the count, swung him-- self to his feet with the aid of the ropes when six was called, and stood, swaying helplessly.

Ewin got home again on an easy target and landed a second one as Fraggdii sagged to his knees. The referee stopped the the beaten man fell fight as over the ropes, head hanging outside and dead to the world.

He was awake two minutes later when he amflingly congratulated Ewin, again wearing the belt pre- sented by Mr. G. G. N. Tinson for the holder of the Colony's Middle weight Championship.

CHAMPION SHAKEN. Fraggolt was early eclipsed but he fell to a lamentable lapse of defence on his own part, he had shaken the Chumpign with severe body blows and was ahend points. Probably he had reckoned on Ewin beating him over the full distance and was determined to force an early issue.

A return match would be great attraction

and would give the challenger a chance to show, thint ho is himself a fit contender for Championship honours. Ewin was in action for too short a time to judge his present form but the meeting of Saturday's result should go far to advance his hopen of an Orient Championship fight.

HANCOCK

On Saturday she bent Miss R. Hancock in the singles 4-0, 7-5, 7-5, and with Mrs. Lochner yesterday carried off the doubles against Mrs, Stafford Smith and Mius V. Thomas, the match being won in straight sets, 6-2, 6-1.

Saturday's' final was well up to standard. Often the tennis went beyond anything seen before in a|in" local_competition.

Miss Hancock went very near to winning in straight sets, and it was only Mrs. James's soundness, her experience and her good judgment at the critical stages which saved her from defent,

Once the Club got into their stride they had matters very much their own way and for a change the backs were given plenty of chance as they got a fair share of the ball in the loose scrum and line out, but on the whole were beaten badly in tight
