1 don't know, after all my observa-
ton and experience, that one lot in life
is much worse or better than another,
so far as happiness goes, but there
are something's that seem very necesl
sary to us, and that little corner in
God'6a creation we call home, is one of
them.-Donn Piatt.
knowledge alone will not suffice, and
and a merely philOsophic morality has
no significance or efficacy for the multi
tude. The moral dynamics of a peO-
pie lie in it's religion. Society rests on
conscience, not on science.-Bp. SpaId-
ing.
We are here as apprentices, to learn
the art of service. No grief. no loss,
no stern discipline. no dreary failure,
no misery of death, but shall one day
find it's compensation in that great fit
wrought out in us.-Mark Guy Pearse.

How strangely mysterious is the law
that presides over the departure of
souls from this world Young or old.
furnished by vice or Respondent with
virtue, they disappear into silence; they
go forth without telling who sum-
mons them, without saying why or
how. Their face suddenly sets towards
eternity and looks back on us no more,
so irresistible is the beauty that en-
raptureS, or the power that seizes
them. A voice has called them in the
eternal distance. A sound has vibrated,
like a funeral reveille, which they alone
can hear. And, while ignorant of
what thus absorbs them, we still seek
to retain them, to speak to them,
noiselessly they escape without bid
ding us farewell. gliding as invisible
phantoms from our loving hand.-Abbe
Bolo.
The fact of the universally Of re-
ligiOn challenges attention and pro-
videS of itself an argument, which can
not be evaded. To speak with Herbert

COMING RING EVENTS.
Fitzslmmons and Dunkhorst. Rubin
and sharkey Matched.

NEW YORK, April S.-Terry McGovern' s
manager, Sam Harris, yesterday made an
other match for the featherweight cham
pion. He is to face Tommy Warren, the
old time fighter at the Broadway Athletic
Club April 20, in a twenty five round bat
tie at 122 pounds.
McGovern's proposed mill with Ben Jor-
dan In England next November may not
take place after all. Harris has contracted
to have McGovern appear in a sensational
melodrama next season and as he expects
to start on the road by the middle Of Sep
tember he does not see his way clear just
now TO make the trip. The matter is still
under consideration, however.
After a good deal OF hustling the Her
cules Athletic Club OF Brooklyn has
matched Bob Fitzsimmons and Ed Dunk
horst, Of Syracuse. for twenty round
bout on April %.
Gus Rubin agreed today TO meet Tom
Sharkey at the Seaside Sporting Club on
July 1e in a twenty-five round bout. This
will not interfere with Ruhln's battle
with Fitzsimmons.
