One Of the beauties Of stenciling Is

anything with color, may be used for
stenciling wood. The design IS traced
on piece Of stencil paper of light
cardboard, and cut with a pen-knife
or manicure scissors. This pattern is
then anchored to the wood and the
color applied with an ordinary artists

Cow juice is a slang term for but
ter in many parts Of the United
States. But the word butter itself
almost certainly means something
very like that by derivation. It is
true that Pliny considered "butyrum"
to be a scythian word, but 1t seems
clear that It was really Greek-from
"bous," a COW. and "turos, cheese.
and meant literally "cow-cheese." +"
"Buttery,a by the way. has nothing to
do with butter, in spite Of appear

tion with pans. The latter Is the stor-
ing place Of bread ("panis"), and the
former is the late Latin "botaria," the
place Of the butts" or casks.

BIG FIGHT IS ON
FOR MONDAY
American and Englishman Are
to Contest For Bantam
weight Championship.
A..eciated Press Cable to The nve.i,s

A:.ociated Press Cable to The Eveni,s
Times.
London, April 2o.-London sports
are awaiting with keen anticipation
the arrival of Monday night. when AL
bert belmont, the little. Boston ban
tamweight champion, will fight Owen
Moran. of Birmingham, for the worlds
bantamweight championship. The bat
tie will take place before the National
Sporting club, which has offered
substantial purse. belmont has been
training for the fray at the Coach and
Horses inn, at Willesden. a quiet little
place ten miles from London. Many
famous fighters have trained there,
including Peter Jackson. The little
Yankee is in fine trim and his man
ager, Jim McQuillan. asserts his will
ingness to back him for any amount
OF money.
A preliminary that is attracting al
most as much attention as the main
event is the battle between Sam Lang
ford, the Boston cOlored welterweight,
and Tiger Smith. The National Sport
ing club has hung up $1,000 purse
for this bout, which will take place
Immediately preceding the belmont
Moran encounter. Smith was recent
ly defeated by Gunner Moir for the
heavyweight championship of England.
He was formerly a soldier in India
and became the undisputed heavy
weight champion of the British army,
the ferocity he displayed in his bat
ties earning for him the sobriquet of
Tiger" Since his defeat at the hands
OF Moir 1t is generally believed that
Smith has lost his man-eating pro-
clivities and that he will be an easy
victim for the American negro. Lang
ford has made a good record for him
self in America. having whipped Lar
ry Temple and Young Peter jackson
and stood up fifteen rounds before
Jack Johnson. If he defeats Smith,
as it is confidently expected he will,
it is probable a match will be arrang-
ed for him with Gunner Moir. Lang
ford came to England in the guise of
Delmont's trainer. but it seems that
before he returns he is likely to polish
off few of the heavyweight aspir-
ants of this country. .

BADGERS ARE R|LED
A Fresh Bunch of Trouble
Handed to Those Athletic
ally Inclined

Madison, Wis. April 20.-A fresh
agitation to abolish intercollegiate
athletics has been started at Wiscon-
sin university. At the meeting of the
regents the subject was discussed,
but definite action was postponed I'M
til the meeting in May.
Regent Magnus Swenson is the
chief opponent of athletics. With some
other members of the board he will
try to keep Wisconsin out of all in
tercollegiate sports. In this he has
the support of good sized portion of
the faculty. Another member of the
board is the possessor of thirty-seven
letters from faculty members advo-
eating abolition. The chief cause of
the agitation is the expense. When
the university authorities placed the
athletic system upon it's present basis
they did not figure the expense would
be as great as it is. 1t goes hard
with some members of the board to
make an appropriation for athletics
every time the regents meet Presi-
dent Van Hyse has taken a strong
stand in favor of the retention of the
intercollegiate games. Standing with
him are Regents Merrill. Evans and
McElroy, the vice president of the
board. If athletics are abolished it
will be against the protest of these
men. 1t looks as if Wisconsin will
go thru a period of agitation similar
to that which it went thru two years
ago.
