He was found lying face downward on the sidewalk in front of 354 W. 41st St. by Policeman John Meehan of the W. 30th St. station, who had been conversing with the boxer about four hours before he discovered his body lying in a pool of blood, bleeding from the nose and mouth. Meehan said he believed at that time that Siki had fractured his skull. Subsequent developments led the police to believe that Siki died either of knife or gunshot wounds. He was wounded in the back. An ambulance summoned from New York hospital brought Dessner to the scene. Dessner said that Siki was dead, but a hurried examination failed to reveal the cause of death. There was no indication of a fractured skull. The body was removed from 30th St. body station on one occasion. Dessner said await the medical examiners verdict. The opinion prevailed that Siki had been shot to death. A 32 valleier pistol was found about feet from the body. The discovery of shots had been discharged from it and the police theory is that the murderer discarded it in his flight. Detective McNamara picked up the body for the fighter's body was discovered. departed. The shooting theory is bolstered up by the statement of a porter employed by the New York Telegram who was on his way to the police station. The Siki is thought to have mutilated his mouth. The porter states that he and a friend were walking on W. 41st St. when they heard a single shot fired, immediately after they saw a man in one occasion. The man was in the wrong way in W. 41st St. toward 10th St. The section of the city in which Siki met his death has been an unfortunate one for the battler.

Although the cause and other details of this last incident have always been obscure, the story of Siki's involvement in the attack is in a strictly private quarrel in the role of a self-appointed peacemaker and was shot for his pains. His last appearance in this country was against Lee Anderson at the Fourth regiment army Nov. 13. He was outpainted and razzed because of his down antiles. His last encounter with the fighter's body was discovered. Talked With Officer Policeman Meehan said he had last seen Sikl, with whom he was well acquainted, on his body. Four of his friends, he had met the fighter, he said, at the corner of 41st St. and Ninth Ave. Sikl had told him that he was on his way to his home, where he met the police with his wife. He and the policeman exchanged words regarding the antics of a monkey which was one of the suspects, and continued on his round. He heard no disturbance, and on finding the body of a man on the sidewalk thought he merely another drink, he immediately recognized Sikl.

She had waited up for him and when he did not come home she then went to the inquire about him. She had a preamble to something was wrong.

The shooting theory is bolstered by the statement of a porter employed by the New York City police, who worked about the time that Sikh is thought to have met his death. The porter states that he and a friend were walking on W. 41st St. when a single shot immediately fired from a light court running east in 41st St. toward 10th Ave. The section of the city in which Sikh met his death has been an unfortunate accident, and has been embroiled in several scraps in "Hell's Kitchen" and on one occasion was nearly killed during a shameless drive with a knife. Although the cause of and other details of this last incident have always been obscure, the accepted story at the time was that a police officer videotaped a quarrel in the role of a self-appointed peacemaker and was shaded for his pains.

Sikh had a stormy career. Probably no more colorful fighter—and ever stepped through the ropes. He was born to the best of his knowledge, J. O. B. Moseley and Senegal in September 16, 1907, and in his earlier years as "Baye," a name invented for him by the French home. He was a child of the jungle. When he was about ten years old he adopted him and dressing him in a gaudy uniform installed him in her villa on the Riviera in the role of a maid. He was thrown on his own resources. He found employment as a bottle washer in a Toulouse bar room. He worked in the kitchen, pre and decided to enter the rink, where the earnings were slightly higher. He had the number of dollars earned a total of $60. Then he found profitable houts to pick and went back to the bottles. He worked in the bar room, broke out in 1815. He enlisted in the Eighth Colonial cavalry. He was commissioned to serve in the military and heroism, receiving the cross de guerre and the medalion of the Legion of Honor. He was discharged with a special recommendation from the commanding officer. As a discharged soldier with decorations, Sikh found a special recommendation from his adopted trade of pugilism. He worked himself up through the ranks and then the idol of Carpenter, then the idol of Prince, for the world's champion lightweight skate. In 1922 Sikh defended gorgeous Georgian skates and carried out Carpenter to ribbons in doing so, and immediately charged Georges with the idol. He stated that he agreed to lose to Carpenter and then decided to double-cross the champion, and his title was taken from him. He was reinstated in time to meet the team.

McDERMOTT Much has been recorded of Race matters, and the attention has been paid to the increase in wealth, while comparatively natural side. As a matter of fact, the advancement of the Colored race in this field is just as striking as that in white. The contact of most white people with Colored is with porters, housemaids, and other of various types. Little is known those who have made more substantial great throng. More than fifty thousand of the Race in the United States today are engaged as ministers, law officers, druggists, editors, architects, photographers, bankers, engineers, cotton mills, dry goods stores, insurance companies, theaters, wholesale houses, undertaking establishments, and their dealings. Their dealings are almost entirely with their own people, hence white their own people, and the advancement of this phase, with Race progress. In the field of art, science, music and literature the Race is making important life. Some of the highest paid singers in America today are members of various groups, and various sorts they have done notable work. Their contribution to music is said by some authorities to be that of any single group in American life. In cultural and social activities the Race is advancing rapidly. In Chili's south and some in the central social centers devoted a little to the Race. The Y. M. C. is thronged with young men who are educated, organized, affiliated, but also social and mental betterment. The number of musical clubs, educationally classes and improvement organizations affiliated to the Race over the country Y. M. C. A. reports its Race work steadily gaining with others in 30 of the 88 American cities of more than 100,000 population. Not long ago the writer was in the court of the 88 American lawyer. His private library was worthy of a professor of literature. Complete sets of the works of the Racial Law were in evidence, together with a numerable other classic and popular editions. Evidences of refinement and culture were all about, signifying that the Race was well equipped with material achievement alone. Just recently a group of Race people were in the Gulf coast in Mississippi and plan a huge development. It will be a center of chauquilla culture devoted to Race uplift, education sciences and of educational gatherings. Nothing is more indicative of utilize satisfactory solution of the race problem than that the Race are ear-ringed, the people are selfless and that the white people are more and more endeavoring to afford the needed opportunity.

A motion was later carried asking the secretary of the conference to draw up resolutions expressing re-creation of the Constitution drawn and inviting them to reunitie "as soon as they could feel such action possible." The entire demonstration was an example of what President Coolidge meant by not inculpating customs. The southern delegates adhered to their own "customs."

She was a Postal Office presiding officer, ruled that Washington was generally considered to be a southern city. Upon objections to his ruling, he appealed to the conference and the members sustained him. Washington, D.C. *pref.* Dec. 15—"I really think that race prejudice was death a severe blow."

The third proposition was that Miss Holiday should represent our students in the college he is chosen to represent white southern students. It was like we voted down. That Washington he not considered as a southern city. This would have discussed election and demanded a recount. He failed in this effort. He then requested whether or not she wanted a coworker. The conference would not permit her to answer this. Scores Prejudice. During the discussion a Kansas university representative denounced race discrimination in the college spoke of the fact that the organization had been formed for the purpose of denouncing white hollow and denounced race prejudice. A Dartmount college representative denounced he would withdraw Dartmouth from the conference. A Leland conference that he could not go back to his school and tell the students there that conference had condemned him. When disruption threatened permanent organization, a compromise was effected by the conference voting to have two representatives from each region on the executive committee.

C., Dec. 18.—President Coolidge last Tuesday transmitted to the senate the nomination of Clifton R. Wharton of Massachusetts to be secretary of the diplomatic service of the United States. This nomination recalls the coup of the state department last spring to rid itself of the only person of our Race in the foreign service school.

Little Florence was as greatly displeased with her but no "collared folks" spirted little star, and with an upturned chin she deliberately turned with her friends. The management Hazel, her chum, and her two brothers were admitted that the ferry little miss As small as she was, this act of discrimination created in her tiny brain a thousand hours of pain, that has been turned for more than a core of years. How could she get revenge. What could she do to reimburse her disapproval of her life? What could she do to prevent with old MacMian, the tool of man?

It is a wonder the Humane society has not locked up the managers who insist that performers give midnight frolles (2) Saturday and Sunday to the evening. It is a downright evenly to the performingوقت. That. Saturday is a regular matinee day; then two shows in the evening and a midnight show for good measure is pilling on more than throat and leg muscles which are so much so so so so so how low up the Saturday midnight show with one and two extra shows Sunday—have a heart. We wish to see all managers make money, but we also wish to live to make money for ourselves. Only Mr. Smith and on the other hand, how to have human enough to cut out the show preceding the midnight performance. The Sunday midnight performance is really a Monday morning show. Performers who play the Sunday midnight show are working as the days for one manager. Then, without any rest or sleep, they must travel to the next stand, where they are expected to give their best; if the opening performance, how can they do it? It is a selfish, unہ‌س‌د‌ت‌م‌ demand and unfair to the best managers. Our little friend W. R. Arnold, who was born in the theater, St. Sr. president, of the T. O. B.

When a guy ceases to get a thrilling from a circus, risking his limbs climbing to a seat on the stringers where he can watch the antics of the clowns, when he no longer gets a kick from a glass of red lemonade, feeding pennots to the pachoderma and being hoodwinked in the side show, that joedoke is getting old. When a guy reaches the period where he can remember the color of his first school-teacher's eyes and forgets his wife's birthday, that gink is about passage. When a joedoke can remember who laid the corner sions of the First Baptist church and can't remember where he laid his glasses he is approaching the age of senility. When a gink can walk down the street and look at the Christmas displays and watch the eager, jubilant faces of the kiddies and not feel a perfect ceptible acceleration of his heart heats it is time for him to call up the old guy with the hour-glass and the scythe, hand in his time and get off the pay We show folks are still able to get a taste of the fact that the weeks preceding Christmas are the lean ones for us, half salary.

DeMille's great masterpiece, the greatest dramatic spectacle of the age. As an added feature, Mr. Gould, the manager, secured the services of the Ebenezer's famous quarrel to sing special church numbers during the unfolding of this great photography. Special music was also rendered by the Lincoln's orchestra and Harry O'llard, leader and musical genius, at the same time, and so�sly noted to the public the difficult numbers with the ense and grace of a master. Appropriation was shown by the thousands that attended nightly and were unable to secure undittained support.

Thomas and Breeden with singing and dancing and countryy, his great� which was only a role in makes a great hit singing. "Oh, How I Miss You Tonight," Thomas does some hot stemping which pleases the old as well as the young. Special music and Jesse do a comelly act which they call "Vampire Women, and it keeps the audience rocking with laughter from start to finish. It is just a corkling act any way you take it and it is worth much of the admission. In regards to the picture, Manager John does a hour earlier to accommodate the throngs which were anxious to view the show, and given the screen one of the greatest spectacles of all three, as the Egyptian hosts out of the land of oppression are the epitome of all the splendors and magnificence of the land. This Biblical prologue has all the color and interest it is possible to secure in the audience, and with the best things done in everyday life surroundings.

Smith's Prelude Wins Favor The overture played by the orchestration at the Avenue theater during the performance of Thals was composed by N. Clark Smith, one of the greatest composers in the country. It was his "Folk Song Prelude" arranged with supernight in the score, that so well pleased the people who heard it at the Avenue theater. Here is what Ruth Louise Allen of the American Conservatory of Music has to say about the technical qualities of N. Clark Smith's "Folk Song Prelude". This is an exquisite little poem in a peculiarly natural, minor setting. It lends itself graciously to instrumental tion and is scored for the grand orchestra as a small ensemble or as a solo. "It consists of two themes—one major or principal theme and one minor or lesser theme—and one episode. It is divided into five periods after the followin- g fashion: First, the first theme of second, the episode of the consist of a connective and a divertissement on the second theme of the second (minor) theme; third the second (minor) theme; fourth the first or major theme re- peated, and fifth, the final, which consists of the major theme interwoven with the minor theme and the episode. the composer follows tradition more or less closely. In the first period he omits chord. In the second he induces in a second period a second chord of the sixth which rather differs analysis. This chord is introduced into the II of the IV. Mr SVH calls it an Ethiopian chord. In the third period he conventionalizes the fourth period he repeats the first subject. In the final he makes use of the second period and not leading into any transitions, and an acute and interesting manner. "On the whole, the composition is indelicately and highly characteristic of Nero gelmo." • • • Notes Alice Calhoun orchestra at the Indiana theater, Chicago, has grown to News of the Music World A great deal of publicity had been given to Miss Bernerdene Mason, contrat to New York in the musical journals when she appeared in New York. Miss Mason was heard here at Kimball hall, accompanied by Cora Wynn Alexander. The daily paper master critics all agreed that her program was behind her and that she was not on ready for a Loop appearance in Chicago. As I listened to Miss Mason, who possesses a good natural voice and at times phrases would be sung with control and an indication that there probably had been a time when in a few songs she demonstrated some of the qualities referred to in New York papers. I thought perhaps in traveling and being away from her teacher's criticism she had drifted into habits that do not belong to a trained artist. We hope to hear Miss Mason to a better advantage upon her next appearance in our city. Miss Mabel Sanford Lewis will appear at the understates of the Metropolitan A. M.

He is from Louliana. Can you heat it? Judge Mills is a down cast-mer, and made the most vitriolic attack upon our group that I have ever heard. He made it so strong that's why he lost.

The motto is "Stay in your own lack yard, folks." The writer has never been much in favor of this passing business for our girls, and it goes for the men who you know that it must be will to and our women are just as susceptible under any other group. So why play with fire? Alice Jones should be a lasting lesson. If your position has to depend upon deception let it go, for sooner or later they are going to find you out.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER HAMPTON CAGE SEASON OPENS WITH VICTORY BY THOMAS W. YOUNG Hampton, Va., Dec. 12—Two minutes and 37 seconds of startling passing and attempted shots had clapped before Edward Hargrove, veteran Seaside center, caged a long and lofty field goal to open the offense which proved the undoing of the fast quitter of Miner Normal from Washington in Hampton's first basketball game of the season here at the school gym. Hargrove* continued his shooting streak throughout the first half registering four field goals and two free throws, while Alexander, made known in Hampton's tilt with Morehouse last season, sank one on a speedy follow through and diminutive "Shorty" Lambright rang in a free throw. Miner Normal's passing was accurate, effective and puzzling to the Seaside*quilt during the entire fraternity shooting limited Capital City lads to three goals in the first half, made by Brown, Lancaster and Jones. Miner Normal rallied in the final period and Jones, the lanky pivot man of the team, scored five points, dropped four shots, and Sims, a substitute, and Tinner each made one. Lancaster casted a couple of the team's best shots, the Seasiders did not tax themselves to a great extent in the last game, but with Lambricht and Alexander accounting for two each, the former sinking a long one from a hurried run to the end of the suits of rapid following up of shots. Hargrove made another and retired, and the Seasiders for the second consecutive year also registered a goal, but was forced to pull near a slight of the "Cutie" Brown, a newcomer in the Seasiders camp, sank three free throws. Hampton is slated to encounter the St. Paul Tigers next Saturday at home. Hampton Miner Normal Lambricht P. Brown Harvard G. Brown Thatcher G. Brown Hartley G.

HEAVYWEIGHT JACK DE MAVE TO BOX 'THE FIGHTING LOON' New York, Dec. 15.—Jack DeMave, light heavyweight boxer, known to thousands as the Fighting Loon, will engage Ray Neuman of Jersey City for 10 sessions or less in the feature bout at the Commonwealth Sporting club Saturday night. DeMave recently fought Eddie Huffman to a standstill in a tilt at the Pioneer Sporting club. In the semifinal of 10 rounds Bobby Ridsen, who has not been seen in action since his tilt with Eddie ("Kid") Wagner, will oppose Billy White of Jersey City. White is quite some batter and while Bobby figures to cop the honors, he will have his work cut out for him. The opening 10 will bring together Sandy Taylor, welterweight champion of the state national guard, and Morris Meola, also an army product of quite some ability. Taylor recently defeated Sid Burt of the Bronx and figures to come out on top. There will also be the usual four-round bout. JOHN WILLIAMS, end, Langston university, Langton, Okla. Tall, rang, fast.

Wilberforce Downs Langston 6 to 0 SATURDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1925 Wilber 5,000 SEE NORTHERN FROM OKLAHOMA'S TEAM" IN STUBBO 5,000 SEE NORTHERNERS WIN FROM OKLAHOMA'S "WONDER TEAM" IN STUBBORN BATTLE BY FRANK A. YOUNG Langston, Okla. Dec. 12.-Langston threw an awful scare into Wil伯force university of Ohio in a big post-season game of football as 5,000 fans of both races looked on today. Langston had a much better team than the visitors had reckoned they had. Wil伯force won, but in so doing, they had to extend themselves. The 6 to 0 score wasn't anything like that 25 to 0 win over Lincoln university on Oct. 24 in in Ohio. Wil伯force found the weather to their liking with the exception of a strong southeast wind that played havoc with their kicking in the second and third periods. Harding, Campbell, Ritchie and Redden stood out for the invaders. as well as a blooming the They tried the Gam wended the barbecue was passed all out. A gymnasium the Most who are not of the count when an en the school and then lace across the It was a chine of e OXS and w Ward didn't impress the home folks played. He seemed afraid of being tired when running with the ball, would chase clear across the field and out of bounds. For Langston, Johnson, who was a running rod, Williams, whose kicking outdid that of the visitors, and Jones, who promises to give somebody a hot run for All-American honors, stood out. But the home folks were disappointed. They came from Muskeguee, Taft, Enlil, Ollinton, Tulsa, Oklahoma City and other surrounding towns within a radius of 200 miles. They came to see Langston up. To them W. E. Anderson, late of Morehouse, had the best team in the world. Sure, the team hadn't been beaten at home in three years. In that same space of time their goal line had remained uncrossed. The lone defeat was at Paul Quinn when Sheppard's toe booted the ball straight over the cross-har between the uprights on two different occasions. Wilberforce had been beaten by West Virginia and that was that. Was no way for Langston to lose they told us the night before. There was Price who served overseas with the 812th A. E. F. fixing up his barbecue. I will have to cause here long enough to tell you about this. Yesterday afternoon Dr. Isaac Young, president of the school, the father to some 900 boys and girls took me over to the slaughter pen. There two hogs were being cut up, one cow had already been carved by the butchers who were school students. Then we went over to the concrete trough, where two bed springs were stretched across a space of about 50 feet. Hot embers were glowing. The meat of fresh slaughtered animals were placed on the springs, which were cleaned thoroughly after each big fry. All night long fresh embers were phased underneath, while Price and his assistants stood guard. This morning we get up and found Price mixing the "sauce." The sauce is some fresh butter, melted with vinegar, pepper and salt. Everything is now in readiness to feed the visitors. Thirty-five cents will fill you up. Price has been careful to see that the food is well salted and turned over at the proper time. The game started at 1 o'clock. From dawn until noon the cars poured in. The alumni returned. The laundry and the machine shops of which we will tell you about at another time, have shut down. Today is the day of the big game. Even Mrs. Young, the genial president's wife, who tips the list her, when it comes to being hostess, is talking of "her boys" and that "they're going to win." This same woman was out there on the field between the halves urging her loyal sons of Langston on. Langston received the kleck-off and it wasn't long before the multitude, even the white students who came over from Stillwater, realized that they were going to see a battle royal. Although the Ohioans got the jump in the first quarter, neither team let up until the last quarter, when Wil伯force was content to play the game safe, fearing a repetition of the Thanksgiving day game. Within a few minutes of closing they brought out the old-time spurt that beat Lincoln, but it was too late. As the pistol barked out the end of the tilt, Ward was rushing towards the goal line. Two Langston men crowded him so fast that the flying Ohioan went outside on the two-yard line and it was all off. Fumbles were frequent in the quarter, appearing to the nervousness of both sides. In behalf of the Langton team, we will honestly say that they put up a hot scram. They played equally as well as the Indians. They had a far better team than we had expected to see. Wilberforce, crafty, using their wits ```markdown ``` Just the shoes to give your Christmas outfit the finishing touch. Next, Dressy, Serviceable, Comfortable.

They tried hard but in vain. The game, once over, the folks wended their way back to where the barbecue was served until the word was passed around that things were all out. A social was held in the gymnasium following supper. The most astonishing thing to those who are not familiar with this section of the country happened about noon, when an aeroplane was sighted above the school buildings. It circled around and then landed in a cotton field just across the main highway. It was a "Swallow" make of machine of eight-cylinder 1925 model ONS and was built in Wichita, Kan., and owned by Simon E. Berry. Mr. Berry owns a bus line, natrium and some other business in Tulsa. With him was Jas. L. Northington, another business man of Tulsa, who also owns a flying machine. This time Mr. Northington came over as a passenger in Mr. Berry's machine. That's coming to a football game in plenty of style. After the game they hit the air for home. Coming here in the face of a gale that was blowing 40 miles an hour, they made the distance of about 65 miles in 53 minutes. That's going some. Dr. Young is to be commended for his far-sightedness in starting intersection post-season games. It is hoped here by friends of both schools that Wilberforce will invite the "wonder team" north next year for a game either in Dayton or Xenia Ohio. It is also hoped that West Virginia will make an offer for an intersection game at Charleston earlier in the season when the weather is better up North. When spring football practice starts, Anderson and Moore will whip the team in shape. The eleven remains intact. So does Wilberforce Graves looks for a championship team in Ohio. A game between the two eleven in 1925 should be worth going miles to see. The folks here, teachers and students, were anxious to do anything to make the stay pleasant and after a trip to Oklahoma City Sunday, we regretted we had to leave so soon. In another column is the play by play of the game. In an early issue we will tell of the work Dr. Young is accomplishing at this day and time.

GREEN, FATHER SPOKE OF YOU JUST AND SAID — "NOW THERE'S MAN WITH SOME SPLENDID IN HIM, AND I WANT YOU TO HIM" — SO HERE I AM May Come West—Rumor THE BASEBALL PLAYER BATTISTE FIGHTS DRAW WITH YOUNG DENNIS Ft. Wayne, Ind. Dec. 10—Crushing, driving, punching power, carried by Otto Batiste of Chicago, and clever boxing skill, possessed by Young Dennis of Toledo, met at the Majestic theater last night in the wintup bout, and as is usual in the case where two fighters of opposite styles are matched, there was plenty of action from start to finish. Boxing ability just held its own with punching power and Batiste and Dennis fought 10 shoving rounds that ended with honors even. A draw being a fair decision for both. Batiste outweighed Dennis about 15 pounds, apparently, and used his weight to send in crushing blows that rocked the Toledo scraper occasionally, but which were not effective enough to stop him. Dennis showed far more boxing ability than Batiste and made the Chicago man miss frequently with the long swings that he started on his knees. Along about the sixth round, Batiste seemed to be tiring fast and it looked as if Dennis was going to stop him. But Batiste recuperated remarkably between the sixth and seventh sessions and came back to win the seventh handily. After that Dennis realized that he could take no chances with the big Chicago battier, and saw that his best plan was to keep out of reach of Batiste's hard swings and he content to outbox his opponent. Dennis had a left jab that sent Batiste's head back on many of his rushes. Batiste's best punch was a wicked left cross. Both men landed hard smacks to the body throughout the fight. Batiste is given three rounds, the first, seventh and eighth. In the seventh Dennis took a hard punch on the ropes. Batiste pounding him before he had a chance to get out of the corner. Dennis had the third, sixth and tenth. The third was his best round. Batiste 'being sent to the ropes by the hard straight left, Batiste twice hit Dennis low in this session. The remaining four rounds were even. Dennis taking a few hard smashes while he was jabbing Batiste with his left, Batiste hitting Jackie Moore of Toledo fought 10 rounds in the semi-windup, which was full 12 action, but which was not quite as satisfactory for the fans as the wintry rush because of the boys' tendency to rush into a clinch too frequently. Hines had what advantage there was taking four of the 10 rounds, the fifth, seventh, eighth and ninth, with the rest even. Hines was more aggressive and a little the more willing of the two. Moore had a crouchiness style that was hard to meet, but Hines straightened him up several times with left uppercuts. Hines seemed to be in great shape and danced back to his corner after every round. He wasn't ready to stop when the final bell rang. Hines seemed to be a little heavier than Moore and had the advantage in reach. "Cyclone" Watts of Milwaukee, a slender, fair-looking fellow, but a hard batter, met a husky, rugged scrupper from Indianapolis. "Battling" Clark, and won by a wide margin. Clark was slowed up greatly in the opening rounds by Watts' hard rushing, and lost his punching power. He was ready to give up in the fourth and went to the canvas, but Irefee Maxwell refused to count, as Clark was evidently looking for the chance to take a dive. Larry Estridge Knocks Krebs in Round Five Bayonne, N. J. Dec. 7. - Larry Estidge of New York knocked out Fredie Krebs (white) of Staten Island in the fifth session of a scheduled 12-round bout at the Bayonne Casino tonight.

The cut was opened on the lid of Moody's right eye in the ninth round. The first punch that hit it in the 10th started the gore streaming. Then it was that Flowers made it apparent to everybody in the hall he didn't intend further damaging his opponent and the fans applauded him the rest of the round. Moody didn't have a chance. He was smired by the Plastering Parson just as badly as have been most of the opponents Flowers has had here. The battle came close to ending in round one. When the bell ended that session, Moody was being counted out, the bell saving him. In the second round, Moody was catapulted through the ropes twice, once for a count of nine, the other time for seven. It didn't look as if the mill was to last long. Moody recuperated in the third and made matters decidedly interesting for a few moments. As soon as the milling got rough, the Tiger changed his mutiles, boxed in his flippant and dazzling fashion. The Englishman didn't continue his flash long. From the fourth round on it was a parade for the parson. Occasionally Moody would keep away from Flowers' spring-like straight right long enough to cut boose with both his dukes and crash them against the Tiger. Each time he did awaken the crowd to a slight frenzy with his spurs, he suffered, as they only served to revive the Tiger and start him afresh with a new volley of all sorts of wallops. Had the Tiger been at all victors or anxious to catch an early train out of town, he might have so thoroughly damaged his man at any time from the half-way mark of the battle on that tilt would have had to be stopped. Of the preliminary program was interesting. Johnny Andresano of East Boston got the decision over Teil Morchant of England in eight rounds from Tommy Jones of Atlanta in eight rounds. Bennie Cowett of Nashau, N. H., won from Harry Foley of the north End in a four-round and took the Frank Brush of Norwich, Conn., in the opening four-round.

As startling a sensation as the church world has had in several years, the vatican's American prohibition reformer wrote a letter to the vatican asking Pope XI. head of the Roman Catholic Church to provide auring better enforcement of prohibition in the United States. Clinton N. Howard (white), chairman of the vatican's enforcement, aroused not only religious but political circles by virtually asking the pope, in Europe, to abolish the death of an American domestic problem. Mr. Howard had already drawn fire by denouncing President Coolidge for his support of the chairman of a committee which includes both Catholic and Protestant temperance and reform organizations. He wrote to the vatican president by a letter to the vatican.

Dear Princess: I have read so much of your advice to others, so please help me a little. I am a widow with no children. I have been away from my husband nearly two years, but I still love him. It seems I can't give him up. He has two girls, and they told him that if he took me back they would not live with him; so he would not take me back. I raised them: worked hard to dress and educate them. Now they are grown and don't speak to me. He is punishing himself to please them. I started to go around with other men just to forget him, and he took sick and sent for me. He later came to see me and said he loved me, but was pleasing his children. His youngest daughter will soon be married. It asks me to come back now, what must I do? I do need a companion, and I find the other men so fickle.—Blue.

You did not tell me just why the husband's daughters grew to dislike me and wanted to do them when they were small. Stepchildren, mothers are, sometimes, and the children are grown. It is only fatherly that your husband try to please his children, and you want to gift me for him. You are to the right. If he asks you to return to ob and him, and you can do so without causing him to be for him in later years, money, blood, then do so, otherwise I advise you not to, because you and he are growing old and you may not be able to or try to therefore he must depend on his children to do it. Again, it is miserable to even need maternal and children be satisfied with them at odds or not speaking to each other. Dear Princess: I am writing to you for advice. I am a young girl. 12 years of age, and have many girl friends. I feel that I am the one of me and I am not let's go any place, and everything I get my mother has to buy it. I do like to enjoyme, such as shows and dances, but I can never go. I feel like to have me before school. What would you advise me to do? He is very mean to my mother, too.—A. G. I have read your mother's letter, which was enclosed with your own, and I feel that you and your mother are both untreated. If this father and his mother are not in the same house, I have a pleasure for him to either take them out or allow them to go. A young lady of 17 is old enough to go to de- place the child to a management with the son of his wife of her own age, and should be forbidden to go. It is treatment of this nature that very often makes bad girls out of girls who would not look so good. I am permitted them to be. Your father does a many places and with so many people whom he should not associate with, and he does so many things that are unlecoming. I am a family member of the family. My family back so that they will not get wise to him. He is as good as he will ever be, so I advise you to be a regular woman. I am close to mother when I am with her in summer comes my mother can work together and I'm to give dad the shake later. Gen. Lincoln I.

RAINEY BACKS SOUTH CAROLINA'S BILL TO FORTIFY FORT MOULTRIE Rainey's time was not occupied exclusively with the needs of his own Race or with his war on Southern white representative for their opposition. He was also involved in his zeal for South Carolina's own advancement brought him into a clash with northern legislative forces to the South sometimes aligned him against his colleagues from the North. He was 43rd congressional a bill to fortify Fort Moultrie introduced. Northern congressional leaders of his state seemed to demand it and he took the floor to advocate its passage. He was one of the factors to the fact that too often the South had suffered in appropriations. A measure of his true strength came upon fair play for both sections, south as well as North. His speech, "Mr. Chairman, I renew the amendment, pro forma, I hope that this amendment will be compared with the amount asked for some other fortifications in this country, why this appropriation should be made, a sufficient one is this: Fort Moultrie will be given great, many historical associations. Its history is intimately connected with that of this government in its very inciplency, when the American people were struggling for their nationality: it was a stagnation of the monuments of the bravery of the men of that memorable era. I say, sir, that it should be kept as nearly as possible intact. If it be only that strangers may go there and satisfy their curiosity by looking at it. If it be only that the child is of the generation of all others, and look at fortification in which their fathers fought for the liberties of this country. I say, sir, that this fort should be kept not only in repair but in good condition, so as to command the respect of all who may examine it. I am well aware that General Sherman in his testimony before the committee said: "Let Fort Moultrie slide." I would not like to suggest the reason why General Sherman may have made that statement, it must be born in mind that he was speaking in behalf of the army. He was not speaking particularly in behalf of the engineers. He wanted the army to keep intact, and he knew very well that if the fortifications were allowed to sink into neglect, he would not, because he made it to the same time, being a strong condition. When we begin to neglect our fortifications, to neglect our army and to neglect GEORGIA EASTMAN, GA. Larmar Davis left Saturday night for Plant City, Fla.

PART 1—PAGE 11 our.navy, we will lose the respect of other nations. We will more. I have spoken about historical associations. There are a great many historical associations clustering about Fort Montreal, the site of the Battle of Fort Montreal during the past war of the rebellion. Whether in the defense of the Southern cause or in the defense of the Northern cause, the associations of that fortification are intimately interwoven with the history of the Republic. Hopefully, that this appropriation will be made. "And I might add, before taking my seat, that the appropriations in all these bills for the approximately small. The Southern States have been much neglected. I do not like to see curtailing the appropriations for the fortifications in the Southern States. In my judgment the appropriations should be made equal, no larger for one section than for the other. The people of the North and the South have been knitted more closely together by the result of their warriorism. I trust, to be separated, and one section ought not to be neglected while another is favored by these appropriation bills. Approved, and I hope they will be made."
