in six round bouts in succession at that

Billy Brady said:
The cause of calling matters off Is
due to the fact that Jeffries' prospect.
i've adversaries are too exorbitant in
their demands and are holding out for
fabulous purses, which, of course, we
will not give. Many persons want to

that he is not in the best of condition,

any chances which would prevent him
from keeping his engagement with

Politicians and cause local sky pilots to

Speaking of the latter reminds the
Rounder that things are changing in Du-
puyer. The church is taking such an
interest in public, school affairs that the
people can 500 dispense with the ex-
pense of a teacher. This will have more
than financial advantages. The children
will be taught to sing psalms and recite
the catechism instead of wasting their
time on such frivolous things as the
three Rs. They will grow up s.aid,
sober faced meddling gossips instead of
giddy old things addicted to dancing,
laughing and other sinful practices.
The Rounder hereby solicits subscrip,
tons Tor the purpose of providing the
instigator of this innovation with a
beautiful leather medal.

We must admit that hoary headed
precedent attaches to some OF the dem

Connecticut afford an illustration oil
precedent established at one time which
gave way to The onward march of civil

that the flag be ha uled down in the

in the action of the Tories at the time of
the revolution, but history does not
record that it ever was ''esta blish ed" to

THE FOUNDER.

The Rounder is az busy as a mailer
these days. Fortune and fame are wait.
ing and anxious to give him the glad
hand and march arm in arm with him
along the rose strewn pathway OF life.
1t will surprise his acquaintance when
out of the labyrinth OF his conglomerate
think tank he evolves a solution of the
perpetual motion problem. And that
is what he is about to do. The inquisi-
tive public needinot come nosing around
his cave in. the mountains thinking to
find a complicated machine made up OF
wheels and pulleys. weights and belts.
All they win find is an old wagon wheel
that use to belong to Sir William Cox
spinning around on a hand spike like
all possessed.
For a long time the Rounder has been
searching for a on-conductor of gravi-
tation and he has found it. The mix
ture has a metallic appearance when
hardened, and when placed on the
ground interferes with the force oil grav.
itation and makes as little of that natural
law as Rockefeller does of the law
against trusts. An object dropped over
this plate fails to fall, but remains as
~rnotionless as a tram on the sunny side
OF a haystack. The att ospheric pres
sure acting equally on all sides Of the
object holds it stationary in the position
t IS placed until acted upon b soma
.orcc other than gravity. Thus when
the plate is placed under one half oil a
wagon wheel hung on a hand spike gra.
vltation acting IN the other half causes
the wheel to revole ia a way to put to
shame the wheels in tie head of an arctic
explorer.
The whole secret lies in the compost.

conductor of gravity as glass is OF elect

Hounder has an abundant supply of
crude material and a well equipped
laboratory in an abandoned mine that
Red Phillips left on Birch creek when
he went to Deer Lodge last time. If
one would like q job cutting wood for the
furnace he can have it. His only quail
ications need be that he is deaf, dumb
and blind.The amount of wages paid will
cut no figure, fifty or a hundred dollars a
day would be a mere bagatelle. There
IS no knowing, as yet, what a reforma,
ton this new invention will cause in the
political and social economy of the world
