But" continued the speaker "suln-
van Is en- old timer and I suppose.
when you spoke, you were referring TO
those who are actually prominent In
the ring now. Nnety-nine men out of
q hundred would al once say that Cor
bett is the most intelligent Of the pres
ent day boxers, and It Is a fact that,
specifically speaking, the ex-pompa-
dour is perhaps the most intellectual OF
the bunch But Corbetts knowledge
and polish are all on the surface;
scratch him and you will find a man az
coarse and illiterate as most Of them.
No. ! consider Bob Fitzsmmons the
most quick wittedt Of the entire bunch.
Although the Australian probably never
had muOh schooling. since he became
champion he has had many opportunl-
ties to mix with cultivated men and has
made good use OF his time so that he
now both talks well and Is pretty fairly
voryed on current affairs.
Possibly the thlckest Of them all Is
Tom Sharkey. His actions IN the ring
have often been compared 20 those Of a
bull and by nature he much resembles
that animal. His manager observed re-
Gently that Il wasn't possible TO insult
Sharkey, and believe him. Rubin Is
one Of the few fighters who has little
or nothing 20 say, During the few con-
yersations 7 have had with him he has
said little beyond yes and no Never
theless he seems TO be rather above the
average Of his class.

course, a goodly number have been
forced out by the reduction IN the num-
Der Of clubs In the major league, but
there has probably never before been a

Some OF these have retired because Of

The most interesting thing about
"Quo Vadls" Just now Is the result Of
the bitter warfare which has been
waged between the Glider and STANCE
versions At the beginning II maybe said
that, except In a few widely separated
spots. the latter Is far and away the
better play. Mr. STANCE has written
drama which becomes interesting soon
after the rise OF the first curtain and
remains so until the end. Miss Glider
has evidently attempted TO preserve as
much as possible OF the literary quality
Of the novel. Naturally, she has sue
ceeded only In retaining the shadow,
while the substance has almost entire
~ escaped her. In some respects the
pictures al the ends Of the acts Of her
play are better than those IN Mr..
STANCES work. but an oasis here and
there Is not sufficient 10 make a fertile
plain. Then, too, some Of the unpleas-
ant illusions OF the novel are retained
by Miss Glider. though their value is
lmperceptible. They are certainly not
used IN the STANCE version, which Is,
ia fact, with almost one accord, pro-
nounced superior 10 the Glider play.
The death Of Petronlus, which Miss
Glider permits us TO see and which IS
brought about by poison IN the presence
OF Nero is anything but an Impressive
spectacle. In the STANCE play this is
much better managed. PetronIus an
nounces 20 Vinicius and Lygia that he
must die, and, after a fond farewell
leaves them presumably for the pur-
pose Of obeying Nero's command TO
open his veins. Miss elders Petro-
Mus. by the way, is about the weakest
thing In her play. Mr. STANCE familiar
with stage articles and limitations. has
contrivcd 10 make the arbiter OF fashion
what Sienkiewicz has painted him,
whereas Miss Glider makes MIN just an
ordinary individual with no marked
characteristics. STANCES Vinlcius lacks
the brutality and Irresistible impetuos-
ity Of the Glider creation, and IL is a
question whether the latter has not an
advantage In that respect. II It has,
however, Il Is more than lost IN the
subsequent development Of the charac-
ter where Niniclus is gradually won TO
Christianity. The greatest criticism
that can be made against STANCES play
is that ne permits Vinicius TO become
! Chrlstlanized entirely too quickly. Aft
er that is said. though, there Is little
else with which fault can be found.

A home building and loan assoT
ciation was organized in Rocky
Ford last week. The citizens OF
that community have been sending
So. 500 per month to outside asso-
Citations, which they will endesscf
to keep at home in the future. At
meeting held in that city last
week, some OF the officers Of the
Otero Building and Loan Associa-
tion spoke OF the benefits that had
been derived from the local instr
tuition, OF which the Enterprise
gives the following review:
&c. A. Beerbohm, OF La Junta,
was introduced and spoke OF the
great success OF the association in
the county seat during the past ten
years Two series have been ma
tured in less than SIX years. The
third series will mature in about
nine months. There have been
no losses in handling business Of
s2oo, 600. There is no bidding for
loans, Stock can be taken at any
time. Both investors and borrow
ers have been well pleased. Paid
up stock Is paid the same dividend
every SIX months that is credited
to installment paving members.
The expenses are very low. Pro-
fits TO the amount of $4,000 have
been kept at home during the past
ten years.
"Rutus Phillips, also Of the La
Junta association. said that the eie
ments OF success in local asso-

officers who take pride in their
work, good working auditing

mouth flew open, and, unable to
control it's contents, he swallowed
a cupful of tobacco juice and the
entire quid.
The beautiful spy-woman, hiss
ing through her teeth, "Who says
the Club doesn't do any good?"
swept from the door Of Judge
Faircloth's post Office (kept by
Mr.. Frank Dobson)-
The spy-woman was soon lost
to view as she passed in the direc-
ton Of our northeastern annex,
known as EdmundsonTown, where,
hidden in ambush, she watches
the artisans, busy in suburban
development, noting, with critical
eyes, from her covert, whether,
or not, they abide by, Or depart
from, the fundamental principles
Of architecture, and also the doc
trines of perspective in landscape
gardening-matters of vital con-
Germ to the Club.
When the spy-woman had gone,
the inartistic person, who had
swallowed both the juice and the
Guild, enquired, "Who in the devils
that woman, anyhow"
ga Club spy" was the answer.
"Why did she stop me from
splitting and make me swallow the
| whole outit?' was the further
query.
Just then an aged gentleman,
with a mild, benevolent look,
stepped forward and said:
"My unhappy friend, consider
for a moment and you will love
that beautiful spy-woman. That
woman" continued the aged gen
tleman with the benevolet look,
''has required no more of you
than she, under oath, has required
of herself. SHE NEVER sPITs.'
Then the unhappy, inartistic
person, who had swallowed che
| whole outfit, said he felt that be,
as a male person, ought to be will
ing to make any sacrifice that a
female person would make, ex-
cept to help a baby through the
teething season, and that if be could
get a mild toddy to correct the
sense of nausea which hs then felt,
from his sudden gulp, that, in the
future, he, himself, was willing tC
cooperate with the Village I'm
provement Club.
This little story is, indeed,
beautiful, and, apart from giving
the sense of nausea a bath in 6
mild toddy, which, I admit has
worldly suggestions, the story.
with its details, points the chival-
rous moral that man, with {
tendency TO sprout beard on bis
chin, should be willing to make
equal sacrifice with woman, whose
chin is as smooth and beardless
as the chin of a frog:
As 1 Ilneer over this terse
moral, | cannot refrain from re.
peating the words which the in.
dignant spy-woman, Kissed, il
aromatic breath, through hel
white, tigress-teeth-"Who says
the Club doesn't do any good?"
Finally, should we search ths
records of nunneries, where fail
women live IN remuneration o:
worldly giddiness, we would fine
few examples sterner in sacrifice
than that suggested to the mar
t'stic person by the aged gentle
man with the benevolent look
"SHE NEVER sPITs.'
