Judge Haughton Gets OFF With Fine.
The following special from ST.
Louis will be read with interest in
Columbus, where Judge Haughton is
well known:
Richard B. Haughton, former judge
of st. Louis court. today pleaded
guilty to a charge of assault and
was fined $500. Judge Haughton
came to st. Louis few years ago

Haughton shot John Berry, an auto
mobile dealer, following a mysteri-
Gus telephone call which the former
construed as an insult. Berry was
summoned from his shop to an alley
where the shooting occurred after
Berry's refusal to apologize.
Haughton, against whom Berry
has a personal butt for $4,000 pend
ing. was given thirty days in which
to pay the fine. Judge Williams, in
passing sentence, stated that he had
known Of Haughton's previous good
reputation. which he had taken into
account. Berry was a very excited
man when he heard of the verdict.

CAPT. HOBSON MAY
ABANDON SCHEME
THE ALABAMA CONGRESSMAN
MAY DECIDE NOT TO INTRO
DUCE BILL PROVIDING FOR
CONFEDERATE PENSIONS.
The Proposed Measure Does Not
Meet With Approval Oh the old
Soldiers. and Many Camps Have
Adopted Resolutions Of Protest

The plan OF Capt Richmond Pear
son Hobson, who succeeded Senator
Bankhead as representative from the
Sixth Alabama district, 10 introduce
in congress a bill providing for pen
sioning Confederate veterans dies not
meet with gavor among the men who
wore the gray, and it seems more
than likely that he scheme viii be-
abandoned. When Gen. 5. D. Lee
commander-in-chief OF the United
Confederate Veterans, learned that
Capt. Hobson had such a scheme in
view he wrote the hero of the Merri-
mac a letter in which he stated that
he considered such a course i'll ad-
vised, and declared that while he had
not had time to ascertain the senti-
ment of veterans throughout the
South, he felt sure that they would
not sanction any movement to secure
pensions from the Federal govern
ment.
In reply to his letter, Gen. Lee re
ceived a communication from Capt
Hobson in which he stated that he
feared the intent of the proposed bill
was misunderstood, as the apprOpria-
ton he proposed to ask for was
more in the nature of an indemnify
than a provision for pensions He
stated that other countries received
indemnities for losses sustained in
war, and that according to his be-
lief the Confederate soldiers were
entitled to pensions from the federal
government to repay them for the
many hardships which they were
forced by the civil war to undergo
In addition to the letter from Capt.
Hobson, Gen. Lee has received a com
munication from Hon. John Sharp
Williams in which was inclosed a
letter which the minority leader re-
cefved from Capt. Hobson. This let
ter is a lengthy document going in
to the merits of the case in detail,
but its author takes occasion to say
that in his advocacy of the measure
he has been actuated only by a desire
to advance the interests of the civil
war veterans, and that if they do not
want pensions from the federal gov
ernment he will abandon all efforts
in that direction.
Gen. Lee is of the opinion that the
bill win never be presented TO con-
gress, and bases this opinion not
only upon the tenor of Capt. Hobson' IS
| letter but upon the sentiment which
prevails among Confederate veterans
regarding the matter. Several camps
have adopted resolutions protesting
| against the introduction Of the bill
and the prevailing impression seems
/ to be that any effort which might be
made to secure pensions for COnfed-
crate veterans would not only be fu-
/ tile but would probably result in re
viving the feeling of bitterness that
once existed between the North and
/ South

SPORTS
AT THE RING SIDE.
BY Knox Blockoff.

New York. Dec. 23.-Once upon a
time there was fighter named Joe
Choynski, who was known among
other scrappers, and especially those
who had faced him in a ring, as the
man with the punch" And he GER
tainly had il. He never climbed to
the heights of fame where he might
look down upon the world of pug
lists and call himself monarch of all
he surveyed. He was too light for
heavyweight and too heavy for a
middleweight. He came nearer to
championship honors, without attain
ing them. than any other man living.
Although never a full-fledged
champion, he gave all of his great
opponents many bad moments, and if
there had been little more flesh
and weight back of his punches. he
would probably have punched his
way to the championship.
All of this is written in the past
tense. but Joe dosen't want his pug
ilstic career spoken of as over and
done. According to reports. he wants
TO fight again. He has forgotten the
pain and ignominy that followed the
attempt OF the freckled fighter TO
hold his own against a younger and
stronger man. Joe had better recon
slider. A record is better than pros
pectus, and J)e's record is good
enough to satisfy any fighter. even If
he did fail to attain TO his highest
ambition.
More men built records for cham
pionship on victories over Choynski
than any man in the American ring.
Tom .Sharkey started his career by
staying eight rounds with Choynski.
Jeifries began his great career in "A
twenty-round fight with Joe. Jim
Corbetts victory on the barge at
Benecia after twenty-seven cruel
rounds gave him his first start. Jack
johnson 1irst tasted defeat from Joe
at Galveston, Tex. Bob Fitzsimmons
fought the hardest and fastest go of
his life with Choynski at Boston
Jim Jeffries says the hardest punch
he ever received in his life was from
Choynski. He was punched in the
mouth and his lip driven in between
his teeth. Billy Delaney was forced
to CT ii away with a penknife.
Bob Fitzsimmons says he was hit
so hard by Joe in Boston that he
thought the gallery was falling in on
him. lack Johnson says the only
time he was ever floored in his life
was by Choynski, and that he thought
a freight train had backed into him.
Tom Sharkey declares that any
man who can knock him out of a
ring. two rows back into the specta
tors, is good enough for him.
Here are four great men. They
have met the best men in the world.
They have felt punches from the best
of them. Joe Choynski is given the
palm by every one of them, even by
the great Jeffries.
The only important battle on the
card for tonight is that scheduled be-
tween Packey Mcfarland. the ambi
tions aspirant to the light weight
championship. and Young Erne" of
Philadelphia, to be pulled off in New
Orleans. The fight is TO be twenty
rounds, at catch weights, with Nal
achi Hogan as referee. Packey will
probably find ii easy money. as the
Quaker City boy on past perform
ances. does not begin to class with
the stock yards lightweight.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

Q. Who discovered vaccination"
and when?
A Vaccination was discovered by
DR.. Edward Jenner. an English ply
sician. His first incubation was per
formed May IA, 1896. At first the
vaccine was taken from one individ-
ual and used on another At the
present time it is procured from COWS
kept for the purpose. DR.. Jenner
was born at Berkeley. Gloucester
shire, England. May II, I749. He
died January 26, 1928.
Q. Is there such thing as arti-
ficial silk?
A. Yes, there are five different
kinds of artificial silk made. One
kind is made from nitrocellulose or
gun cotton; another is manufactured
from cellulose dissolved iii ammonia,
known as hydrate of copper silk. a
third kind is made from cellulose that
has been dissolved in chloride of zinc.
and still another kind is made from
the decomposition of ulphocarbonate
of cellulose. The latter is known
as viscose silk. The best of them are
about as strong as the natural silk,
but are affected by dampness. The
cost of manufacturing them is about
one-third that of the regular silk.
q. What is Russia Leather" and
where is it made?
A. Russia leather is made in Rus
sia by process that is secret, tan
ned by chemicals peculiar to that
country. A very good imitation is
made by tanning a very fine lea ther
with willow bark and dyeing II with
sanderwood. and then soaking ii in
birch oil, which gives it peculiar
aromatic odor that is similar to that
of the real Russia leather.
Q. What is meant by Morgan
attic marriages?
a. In GONE countries "A member of
the royal family cannot contract a
marriage with woman of interior
rank, but should he marry one be-
meath his rank. it is called q NOR
ganatic marriage. The children by
such marriage do not inherit the
rank of the father. or the right ,f
succession. The morganatic wife
does not acquire the rank of her
husband.
