 JACK JOHNSON

"I om gorry thut Jofrrios uaa Si5n- ed to fight Johnson" said Frank sla- win. the we'll known retired fighter, when he learned that the negro and boiler maker had signed articles. "Tm very much afraid that Johnson is too clever and that Jeffries will not be in shape for a gruelling match.
 Jeff may think he is in good con- dltion, but he has been out of the ring too long to be in his old time form. When he faces Johnson he will not be the Jeffrles of old. Then Johnson is a better man than Jeff ries ever fought. He is as big as Jeffrles and much more clever"

A Fairy Tale kinndom.

The kingdom of Uganda Is a fairy
tale. You climb up railway instead
Of beanstalk, and at the end there Is
a wonderful new world. The scenery
is different, the vegetation is different,
the climate is different and, most Of
all, the people are different from any
thing elsewhere to be seen in the
whole range Of Africa. Instead Of the
breezy uplands we enter a tropical
garden. In place Of naked painted
sayages clashing their spears and GLIB
bering In chorus to their tribal chiefs
a complete and elaborate polity Is pre-
sented- Under dynastic king, par
lament and a powerful feudal sys-
tenn an amiable, clothed, polite and in
telllgent race dwen together in an or
ganized monarchy upon the rich do
main between the Victoria and Albert

Coal used BY Rnmans

1t Is believed by some historians that
coal was used by the Romans on the
continent and by the Britons on the IS
land before the arrival of Caesar. As
early as 1924 Henry III. granted IT,
cense to dig coal near Newcastle, but
a few years later the use of coal was
forbidden In London, the smoke being
deemed prejudicial TO public health.
In 1905 the London gentry petitioned
the king against its use, declaring that
in spite Of his royal order certain ma
licious persons persisted in burning it.
Goals began to be brought from New
castle to London IN 1881, during the
reign Of Richard II. By the year 400
coal was commonly burned in London
as fuel, though 200 years later, in
the reign Of Charles l., its use was far
from being general throughout Eng
land. Anthracite coal, which, except
the diamond, is the purest form of car
bon known, was first used by a Con
necticut blacksmith named Gore in
176S and as domestic fuel by Judgc
Jesse Fell of Wilkesbarre, Pa, in 1905

organization that Offices snail be pass

The argument is that each member
may have some experience as secre-

it is the unwritten rule that the older
members shall be ONCE holders. Is
this right? Are there not members

here as club editor, the correspond

made known to the public in the club
notes. The secretary should know
the exact feeling of the club on each
article she sends to the paper The
club editor is not supposed to know
this. nor does she have the time to in
quire and correct all mistakes. 1t is
the duty of each corresponding sec

articles SO that they may be published
and then profit by the same, as the
next time articles are sent in they
may follow more closely the rules OF

Every club should have a separate
secretary for club notes. The record
