Lands Knockout Blow in Sixteenth
Round Of Vicious Fight.

Los Angeles. Cal, April 15.-In a
battle which demonstrated anew the
ability OF Sam Langford, of Boston. as
Ia human fighting machine, and added
to the reputation of Jim Barry, of Chi
cago, only a tribute to gameness and
ability to withstand punishment, the
Boston demon" sent his white an
tagonist to the mat for the final count
in the sixteenth round at the Vernon
arena.
1t was vicious go from start to fin
ish with the negro we'll in the lead af-
ter the first six rounds. From the
tenth, in which Barry twice went down
for the count of nine. until the six
teenth, when straight left to the chin
ended the combat. it was wholly one
sided. Langford landed upon his man
almost at will and victory by the
knockout route appeared only a matter
OF time.
Barrie surprised the ringside crowd
with the strength he displayed. despite
the terrific bomba rdment and a rally
in the fifteenth inspired his packers
with the hope he would yet outlast

While the men did not weigh in be-
fore entering the ring, 1t was said a

SCENES.

Battle Of Stately Ends in uproar But
Victory For Administration Fist
Fight Narrowly Averted During tho
Debate-Balfour Leads Attack-oth-
err News.

London, April 15.-Amid tumultuous
scenes last night the house of COM
mons recorded it's approval of Premier
Asquith's resolution curbing the veto
power of the lords and heard the pre-
Inier's declaration of policy for carry
ing it into statutory effect.
BY the time adjournment was reach
ed the tempers of some OF the men,
bers were SO aroused that fist fights
were averted with difficulty. No sucn
scenes had been seen in the commons
since the Gladstonian home rule de-
bates, and even these We're outdone.
The governments main anti-lerds
resolution was being debated in the ev-
eninS and closure was to be applied at
q: 80 p. m. and the vote taken. Within
a few minutes of the time set Mr..
Asquith tried TO make his expected
statements regarding the course the
government would pursue if the house
OF lords should reject his resolution.
The opposition was resentful because
the impending closure precluded dis
cussion. Former Premier Balfour led
a skillful attack, taking advantage Of

the premiers statement.
It then became a battle of strategy
between Mr.. Asquith and Mr. Balfour
The latter, always cool and debonair
invoked the support of the chairman of
the committee and after a keen tussle
Won victory, obtaining the chairmans
ruling against the premier.
Taunts, cheers, and incoherent yells
We're banded by the opposing parties,
each utterance of the premier and for
mer premier and the chairman produc-
ing fresh gusts until the chairman
ruled in Mr.. Balfour's favor and asked
Mr.. Asquith 20 defer his statement.
Mr.. Asquith took~the situation calm
~, but he seemed to feel hurt. The
guillotine then FELL and his resolution,
aimed to cripple the house of lords,
passed by vote of 351 to 246.
Then the resolution limiting the du-
ration of parliament to five years in
stead of seven carried by a vote of 334
to 23S.
After this the house was in a calorific
condition during the remainder Of the
evening. Mr.. Asquith had announced
he would make his statement on a mo-
ton to adjourn the house and the ex-
citement over this dominated every
thing.
Cheers from the Unionists and ironi-
cal laughter from the Ministerialists
punctuated Mr.. Balfour's speech. The
whole house was greatly excited. When
the motion to adjourn was agreed to,
Mr.. Asquith arose to leave. Then his
supporters cheered him, while the OPP
position shouted ironically: why not
cheer Tor Redmond?"
Tempers We're at white heat. Some
one on the Unionist side shouted "dyn
amitards'' at the Irish. This stung
them into fury. and fight seemed
probable, but peacemakers interposed.
The demonstration and excitement
continued in the Hobbies. where the
Irish let off their jubilation in loud
whoops and concerted cheers in man
ner never before witnessed by living
parliamentarian

is Met With Manly Re
buke by President.

Washington. April 15.-The president
OF the United States, the first chief
executive of the nation ever to greet a
gathering of women suffragists, last
night had the courage to confess his
opinion and was Kissed. So great was
the crowd that sought admission to the
hall that hundreds were turned away
President Taft was welcoming to
Washington the delegates of the con-
vention Of the National American
Women Suffrage Association. He had
told them frankly that he was not al
together in sympathy with the suffrage
movement and was explaining why he
could not subscribe fully to its princi-
pIes. He said he thought one of the
dangers in granting suffrage to women
was that women as whole were not
interested in it and that the power of
the ballot as far as woman is concern
ed would be controlled by the less
desirable citizens"
When these words fell from the pres
ident's lips the walls of the convention
hall echoed a chorus Of feminine Misses
It was no feeble demonstration of pro-
test The combined Kisses sounded as
If a valve on steam engine had
broken.
President Taft stood unmoved during
the demonstration of hostility for the
h:s.irg lasted BIZ. mnment-and then
smiling as he spoke, he answered the
unfavorably greeting with this retort
Now, my dear ladies. you must show
yourselves capable Of suffrage by exer-
cising that degree of restraint which IS
necessary in the conduct of government
affairs by not Kissing"
The women who had Kissed were re-
buked. The presidents reply apparent
1y had taken hold. There were no more
misses while the president continued his
address which he characterized as my
Confession" on the woman suffrage
question. At the conclusion of his
talk he was app1auded and some of the
leaders of the convention expressed

Chicago, April $50 light was the
run of cattle that regular buyers for
packers did not think il worth while to
come into the alleys. Most OF the Of
ferings We're butcher stock. which was
taken at steady prices
The report that fresh meat is arriv-
ing from foreign countries in New
York is not given much credence by
operators here. Buyers say that il
would scarcely be possible to import
meat of good quality to compete in
any strong measure With the home
grown article. tho even cheap stuff will
have its effect on general prices
There has been a big increase in re-
ceipts this week. compared with the
small supply last week. the gain being
about 10000 head. No doubt the slump
in the market early in the week is re-
sponsible for the light receipts and it
is believed by many that the country
will hold offerings down till the mar
ket gets back on steady keel.
Hogs.
On the strength of a fair shipping
demand and moderate run. prices for
the first time this week ruled higher.
Prices were about 5 cents higher
Regarding provisions. L. j. Schwa-
bacher said: The bull movement that
swept provision prices TO the highest
level of the last two decades has cul-
minated in a riot of liquidation. This,
aided by hammering of the May lard
by the Chicago packers and some short
selling. has caused a sharp and severe
break with the bears in full control
last night, and the pessimists predict
ing no bottom for the market Hog
prices have broken but there is still
big margin of loss in turning out prod
ucet- Stocks are not increasing, al
tho the cash trade is quiet as always
on a declining market. The Ameri-
can cottonseed oil has not broken. Any
fresh buying will cause a sharp ad-
vance and further break will make
some reaction certainty. However.
if liquidation continues the market will
and can easily break another cent and
continued heavy hog receipts will be
an incentive TO the bears The great
est trouble of both bulls and bears just
now is the apathy of outside specula-
tors"
Sheep.
Live nluttons opened higher and
closed strong. One band of shorn lambs
sold at 1855. the high mark for the

What Is Education7

Education" says Prof. Huxley. rs
the instruction of the intellect in the
laws of nature, under which name /
include net merely things and their
forces, but men and their ways; and
the fashioning Of the affections and
OF the will into an earnest and loving
desire to move in harmony with those
laws. For me, education means Meth
er more or less than this. Anything
which processes to call itself education
must be tried By this standard: and
II 1t fails to stand the test, will not
call 1t education. whatever may be
the force Of authority. or Of numbers.
