Big Bill Rischell, of the Herald
has drawn up a set of rules to gov
ern boxing contests that should be
adopted in every contest that is pull
led off throughout the entire civil
lied world. They call for decision
with the referee empowered to ord n
rounds if unable to make verdic,
after the number of rounds called for
in the articles have been fought
They require the posting of forfeits
which will be forfcits in every sense
of the word for the reason that the
principals lose them as well rs any
sharing in the receipts if the club
committee decides that the contest
ants have not given their best efforts
They also do away with the chance
of taking through tie foul route by
awarding one-half of the purse 10
charity and one-half to the contest
ant fouled, no matter how the purse
was to have been split. The club
is required to print coupon tickets
that those who pay admission will
have something to show for return
of their money in case match is de-
clared no contest, which must be
done in case the judges decide that
the contestants have rot given their
best efforts.
Jim Jeffries latest declaration in re-

he will never fight again unless he

there's plenty of would-be sports

world is growing worse. The fact is,
that the thought comes to us mainly
as the effect of shock and the very
fact that these lapses from righteous
ness does shock the general public,
is proof positive that it has not de-
scended to the level from which the
shock came. AS long as the public
is capable of being shocked with cpl
sodes of this character, there is hope
that the world is not growing worse
after all
The public prints made something
of en- ado over the fact that a couple
of opera singers were married, be-
tween acts, in a Sacramento theatre,
the other day, the wedding costume
being the same as that used on the
stage. 1t was stated that the bride
wore tights, as also did the brides
maids, and that the groom was in
chorus costume. 1t is hard to tell
just why so much notice was taken
of the affair. If costume is fitted
to be seen by the public before the.
footlghts, there is certainly no rea
son why it should seem so strange,
that it should he used when the mar
riage ceremony was performed. Now
there might have been some reason
to take notice of the matter if the
couple had been married in no cos
tunes at all Even here, however,
the merit of originality would have
been lacking, if we remember how
the first marriage took place, before
even the fig leaf was thought of as
a means of clothing.
IT, leader of the Greek colony in
this city is indignant over the fact
that TIE loyalty of his fellow coun-

credit. When a man capable of sup
porting himself and his family, de-
termines to make his permanent
home in Our midst, he very fact OF
his having arrived at that conclusion,
is proof enough that his motives are
of the best. 1t is the one who comes
TO our shores for the purpose of gain
ing little money and then spending
it abroad, who causes adverse COM
ment. The und esirability of even
this latter class must remain an open
question.
The thought that the Hon. o. w.
Powers is to be associated in the de-
Tense of Harry K Thaw grows.
Utahns in general, are of the opinion

that if he cannot "thaw" any New
York jury he comes up against, there
is little use of trying to find law

Facts as to Birthrate.

Sir William Dubar, English register
general, in report recently submit
ted, inclines to the belief that the in.
creasing low birthrate in England
does not indicate decay. His stats.
tics Indicate that infant mortality de-
creases inversely with low rates OF
birth. When children como rapidly
they are less likely to be-strong, and
If other parents are poor, difficulty Of
securing proper environment and nur-
ture is enhanced. His tables on high
birth rates show that 1t is attended
by sickness aud weakness in infancy,
in majority of cases. The large
proportion of the offspring of small
families survives, while the opposite
too frequently is true of large fam
lilies. 1t would be interesting to learn

First Note of Color Bin dnes,,

Color blindness has probably exist.

has been recognized for only 1870
years. Those who are color blind
sometimes discover the fact through
ludicrous blunders. The first to de.
scribe his own case lin 1777) was the
quaker Dalton, prominent chemist In
England. Attending a meeting of the
Society of Friends arrayed in scarlet
hose, he nearly received excommuni.
cation for his rankly offensive affront
and made matters worse when he de-
MED the charge. He was red blind
When he received from Oxford the
investment OF the scarlet gown" he
was able to appreciate the honor, but
not the gown. He came near having
his name given to color blindness, but
he did not quite measure up to the
standard required, as he was blind
only In one color.--Century.

some such purpose.
