The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1903-10-06

The police officers Of Burlington are
running a domestic reform bureau in con
nection with their duties as guardians of
the peace. On Saturday they released a
man from jail provided he would promise
to do certain things, chief among which
were not to drink again, to use no tobac-
60, to stay with his wife and family even
ings, to keep good company, to shnn his
former companions who drink, to get work
and to do his best to keep 1t, to turn his
wages over to his wife for the support Of
the family, to pay his fine and costs
within three months and to take any rem
edy for the drink habit which his wife
may propose. A pretty stiff combination
Of promises for any man to take his oath
on, and one wonders when he reads that
the subject OF this domestic reform did
not balk at the last provision. Amy rem
edy which his wife may propose, may
cover q multitude of propositions both in
sane and inane, which an over-zealous
woman might coniure. We shall be anx-
ious to hear from this man later.

Death the bridegroom, waits for her, and
she fears to meet him.

Champion Jim Jeffries, who has
drawn the color line and declines to
fight McYey and johnson, the colored
giants Of California, Is now having his
troubles with the sporting men of the
Pacific coast. Jeffries, it will be re-
membered, didn't draw the line when
Peter Jackson, then a wreck of his
former self, asked for match. He
fought Jackson and Of course whipped
the black anan in quick time. The
California sporting men now ask JEFF
fries why he draws the color line on
McYey and Johnson when he did not
on Jackson. The big champion can
hardly Justify his course, and it looks
as IL the sports and newspaper writer's
win force him to fight.
MeVey since he knocked out "Den-
yer Ed" Martin in round is hot on
Jeffries' trail He has challenged him.
and If Jeffries refuses to fight him he
says he win claim the championship.
Jeffries appears to have the worst Of
the color line argument. If he had
never fought a colored man, there
would be some justification in his col
or line argument.
