have made In providing site for the
business, and also in adding to the archi-
tectural attractiveness of the city while
providing facilities for attending to the
business of their numerous customers.

The compulsory educational bill for the
District occupied most of yesterday-Dis-

ing finally placed its passage.
The measure provides that every child in
the District between the ages of eight and
fourteen years will hereafter be compelled
to attend a public, private or parochiai

ment made in the Senate measure provides
that the compulsion shall apply to children
as young eight years instead of six.
An attempt was made to obtain favorable
action upon the bill raising the pay of the
employees of the fire department, but Rep
resentative Mann of Chicago STOOD 1" the
way. The hour was late-5 O'clock and
Mr.. Mann wanted full explanation of the
measure calling for an expenditure of $685.
AGO additional Mr.. Campbell of Ohio, In
charge of the bill, explained 1t. but Mr..
Mann still objected, and the bill went over
until next District day.
Chairman Babcock of the House District
committee had twenty-three measures
ready for consideration, but only two bills
were passed in addition to the compulsory
education measure
On a division the absence of a quorum
was disclosed. Mr.. Williams MISS. not

similar motion.

But the motion did not prevail, the re-
publicans voting in the negative.

New York. Oct. S.-The postal COM
mission, which is investigating the SUBJ
ject of second class mail matter list
ened to the reading of brief in be-
half of the American Newspaper Pub
fishers association in defense of the
daily newspapers. 1t was declared
that the transportation of newspapers
at l cent per pound is profitable, in
asmuch as express and railroad COM
panies find profit in carrying news
papers and other articles at rates vary
ing from a quarter of cent pound
to cent pound. giving more and bet
ter service for the money and carrying
long distances at the cent a pound
rate.
A defense of the Sunday supplement-
as a part of the Sunday newspaper
was entered by T. T. Williams, repre-
senting the Hearst publications, who
said 0(at the funny sheets" were as
essential to the amusement of one
class of readers as the literary sup
plement is to the other and should not
be Disseminated against.
A protest against any revolution
airy changes in the present postal
laws was embodied in the brief pres
ented to the commission on behalf of
the National Editorial association of
the United States. George c. Fair
banks, editor of the "Natick (Mass)
Bulletin" was one of the committee.
The brief declares that if there are
abuses, legitimate publishers are not
responsible for them. While these
abuses should be corrected. existing
business and property rights should
be conserved.

strength very much more than pro-
porttonate to the increase In power.
A great deal Oh stress is laid upon the
comparable roomy tonneau which is
provided in this machine. The inter-

so easy riding that these seats may be
faced about and u game OF cards in

The White company points with
pride to the fact that while its pro-
due, has been elaborated year by
year from the 6 horse power Stanhope
to 80 horsepower heavy road car
carrying seven passengers, the pro-
gress has been so carefully worked
out that the present car uses no more
gasoline per mile than did the sturdy
little runabout which the company
first marketed. The same mileage is
expected to be made by the new car
as was made by the present model,
which. it will be remembered. won
the endurance contest from Los
Angeles to San Diego last Spring be-
cause it used less gasoline than any
other car which made perfect score.
Naturally it is asked how the same
economy can be attained by a heavier
car at higher horse power? Engine
changes give greater economy in pro-
portion to the size of the engine. and
feed water heater will do the rest
BY this device the exhaust steam
heats the water almost to the boiling
point before it reaches the generator,
and the water in turn helps to cool
the exhaust steam on it passage to
the condenser. thus giving consider
ably better condensation and increas-
ed water economy. 1t is interesting
to know that the same size generator
is used in this car that was used in
"Whistling Billy" the famous White
reacer, which holds the track record
for mile-4S 3-5 seconds.
While the White car has added many
new features. there is one worthy of
mention which has been used in the
White car throughout all the years of its
manufacture. and that is ball bear
ings." For while manufacturers
seemed to have tendency to get
away from ball bearings. but there
has been very strong reaction and
their foreign as we'll as domestic cars
are now running to ball bearings. One
maker of cars is now advertising the
fact that his product is ball bearing
from radiator to gasoline tank. But
this has been the case with the White
car from its inception. and while 9TH
er makers have been experimenting on
the various bearings the White COM
pany has perfected series of ball
bearings that are we'll nigh inconl-
parable. The size of the bearings has
been constantly increased with the
size OF the car until on the present
model the main journal bearings of
the engine will have q balls.

Prize Ring

Joseph B. Cans. champion undisput-
ed by virtue OF his latest victory. is
is the last lightweight of a noble line
He is worthy holder of the title SO
far as skill, speed and all the physical
essentials of the role are conceren.
Cans can never enjoy the personal
popularity of previous title holders,
but, racial and individual prejudice
aside, the negro compares wonderfully
we'll with any of the men whom the
public recognized as kingpin light
weight in the past.
Jack McAuliffe. George Lavigne and
Frank Erne were the men who starred
during the years preceding Cans ac-
cession to the throne. Take any one of
these great fighters, take him at his
best, and howwould he have Jared in
front of Cans? Study them all from
every angle and then see If the negro
would not have been too much for
them. And yet, what a royal fight
they would have given him!
Jack McAuliffe, the most popular of
all the lightweights, a prince of good
fellows, was also marvel of science,
ring generalship and all-round ability.
He might. when at his very best, have
beaten Cans, for there is no trick of
Cans repertoire that McAulifte did not
know, while he was game and strong,
fully as hard hitter as the negro and
possessed of wonderful endurance. Nc
Auliffe and Cans both at their best,
would make an Incompatible light
weight battle, but Jack left the roped
arena long, long ago.
Lavigne was fighter of totally diff
ferent type from either McAuliffe or
Cans. He was different in physique
and stature and different in fight
ing style. Lavigne had little science
OF beauty of tactics shown by Cans or
McAuliffe. In aggressiveness and rug
ged strength he was much like Battling
Nelson, but his fighting was Shower
and more sensational, in variably pro-
voking thunders of applause. Next to
McAulfffe, Lavigne was the best liked
OF all the lightweights. He was also
one of the smallest, being no bigger
than many men who style themselves
feather-weights today. He was about
the size of Charley Neary and could
do 1873 at the ringside with greatest
ease.
Frank Erne, who succeeded to the
lightweight glories after Lavigne slow
ed up, was tall and rangy for light
weight, and master of science, though
not knockout slugger. He once de-
feated Cans and was, in turn, beaten
by the colored man. Erne was not
as strong as Lavigne and not as show
ly as McAuliffe, but was brilliant
fighter just the same. His career as
a top top-notcher was marked by some
excellent battles and be gained we'll
deserved credit, though never acquir-
ing the popularity of McAuliffe and
Lavigne.
Cans. heir to the laurels of these
great little fighters, seems good en-
ough right now to have bested any of
the three when they were in their
prime, but comparisons do not make
good. Possibly one of them could
have Slated the face of Cans. It's a
matter of sentiment and opinion. One
thing sure, the black lightweight
champion looks good enough to hold
his job for several years.
Twenty-three fights in as many
weeks Is record that few ring artists
