Protecting Coal Miners.

The terrible accidents which have oc-
Cured recently in the coal mines of
Germany and France have drawn the
attention of scientists, especially in the
former country, TO the introduction of
methods of protecting the miners
against the recurrence Of such calaml-
ties or at least to diminishing as far
as possible. the ensuing loss Of life
saws the New York Tribune.
One measure contemplated Is the
construction OF safety chambers, shut
off from the rest of the mine and pro-
tected against explosions. A conduit
of compressed air Is introduced into
these excavated rooms, and should the
conduit be destroyed vessels or bottles
filled with oxygen stored in the cham
bers are intended to supply the neces-
sary air until rescue can be effected.

Household Money.

Personally, says a clever man in
housekeeping discussion, when my wife
ts froQn home I hand the housekeeping
money TO my cook, who is q careful
soul with simple ideas, and she inva-
riably has surplus at the end of the
month-and lose weight, believe,
but am in better health. I have even
done the housekeeping myself.
My wife and I consider the allow
ance for food. ETC., as trust fund Ono
matter who has it,, to be expended for
certain purpose in the home, the vic
tualing of the home, not for powder
and paint, nor for cigarettes or pipes,
but for victualing the home.
1t is certainly the wife's duty, il she
is doing the housekeeping, to expend
the whole, or else to tell the husband
she can do with less allowance in that
direction, or put it in the rainy-day
fund 1t is not fair for anybody con
cerned that the wife should cut down
supplies or use poorer food In order to
save money for other, and perhaps pri-
vate purposes other than for the pur-
poses the money was obtained. That
would be misappropriation of the funds
at her disposal
The wife has her allowance for pin
money" as 1t ig called, and the hus-
band does not claim ner surplus OF
that If any. Why should the wife
claim the surplus money from store

H RANK MULKERN, the young Mil
n waukee man who Is looking after
Il the interests of Ad Wolgast, is
known far and wide as the Millionaire
Newsboy." That he quite well de-
serves the title Is not to be doubted,
for Mulkern has piled UP his fair
share of this worlds goods and is in
the fight game more for the excitement
than for anything else.
Sixteen years ago Mulkern, who is
so years DID, was peddling daily papers
around Milwaukee. BY scrapping all
the time he held the best corner In
the Cream city and did such a thriv-
Ing business that 1t was not long be-
fore he was able to establish a boot
black stand When this succeeded, he
bv and by blossomed out as pur-
veyor of papers from all parts of the
world.
In addition to his paper and boot
black business, Mulkern owned pros
porous auto rental concern and is well
satisfied with the way things are
breaking. He is a half owner in one
of the Milwaukee fight clubs, and in
addition to Wolgast, has Young
Dougherty and Maurice Sayers under
his managerial wing.
According to Mulkern, there is no
money in handling fighters. "They are
like a bunch of spoiled kids" he says,
"and unless you watch them every
minute something will slip and you'll
get In bad. At that 1 think 1t is worth
the trouble. for 1t is a lot of fun to
travel around, and especially when you

By Il. HAMMOND nnArn

By gathering at st. Vincent's
bunch of general utility warriors, who
are as capable OF playing one position
as another, Coach Hempei is preclud-
Ing any danger OF defeat to his team
from having one or two players In
jured In any of his coming matches.
Rheinschild at tackle Is the only man
on the Vincentian squad who cannot
all more than one position, but his
sphere of usefulness Hes In the fact
that he plays that one position better
than any of his competitors.
With only thirteen or fourteen men,
Hempel will brave the season, when
other coaches will have strings OF
twenty footballers on their staff. The
rule Of having most of the men able
to double In football Is the only way
ne can do 1t. Stoney's duplicate capa-
city, besides playing full or half, is

rando on the other extreme plays end,

work at half or ldll suits the coach,
Whlle cunningham can hold down

rigan can be used at either guard or
tackle, while Hemp has an extra set
of backs to use in q pinch In Dingman
and Roletti should his star men be in
jured.
At Pomona the Saints coach used
these same tactics In having his men
trained to jump in and play any posi-
tion at all kindred to their regular
place on the team. At the Indian
school this could not be worked to ad-
vantage. since all the redskins could
get through tl.eir shaggy scalps was
how to play one position, and that
rather by main strength and brute
force than by any scientific head work.
All the Vincentian eleven swear by
their coach and would not leave the
