We are told by many that the mod

her chief and highest duty 10 to rear
children In the fear Of the Lord, or

mCrkly performed 1t In the shape OF
families Of eight. twelve and fifteen.
There are only two defects in this
a-auiiful dream Of the days Of old.
rhc first is that neither the fathers

BOTTLE fLOATED nC:, ) SEA
PICKED Up In the Azores Three Years
After Being Cast AdrIft or
Carolina Coast.

Floating sluggishly at the mercy OF
the waves for over three years a pint
bottle containing the address of VII
liam II. Windoipl, this city, travelled
across the Atlantic ocean and was
finally picked up off the eastern coast
OF the Azores about nve weeks ago.
The hayward travels Of the little
bottle are most mysterious. It crossed
the Atlantic or at least reached the
other shore; whether currents or
winds took It miles in detour before
1t reached Its destination is a subject
Of conjecture
On January 81. 1907, Mr.. WIndolph
on his way to Tampa and Key West
passed down the coast OF the Caro-
linas in Merchants and Miners
steamship. the Merrimac. on North
Carolina In an idle moment he put his
card within whisky bottle and push.
Ing In the cork against the rail OF the
vessel tossed II overheard. Until II
disappeared from sight in the green
waves Mr. Windolph watched the tiny
advent urcr. never thinking to hear
from & again.
Three and one-half years after the
card had been sent out on the sea
strange letter came to him from the
fishing firm Of Manuel Vasconcelles &
Co. Spain. Within the envelope was
the same card which he had sent out
unstained by the water. uninjured aft
er it's long voyage
With the card was a letter stating
that 1t had been picked up In q whisky
bottle of the eastern coast OF the
Azores, in the province OF Prala, by
one of the crew OF the fishing smack
d. Carlos, DeI,onza, captain. The let.
ter was In excellent English. but but
from the style had evidently been
written by an educated Spaniard II
did not state the exact date OF the
finding Of the bottle.--Philadelph

MONA BEAT PAPKE.
Middleweight Put Up Poor Bout at
the ArmorY Club.

Boston, Nov. bob Moha of Milwau-
kee won a decisive victory over Billie
Papke, the illinois Thunderbolt," in
twelve rounds of one-sided bout at
the Armory Athletic association last
night. Papke showed from the start
that he was in no form to fight.
Moha had but few friends either
among the spectators, for it appeared to
most of them that he was not taking
advantage Of the many openings pre-
sented to him to land effectively In
the second round Moha's head came into
contact with Papke's head, cutting the
formers forehead severely and damging
the Others nose. The bout was so
slow that the crowd yelled to take them
out, and in the fifth round Referee Fla
herty warned the men to get down to
serious work, but it had no great effect.
Moha forced the milling all the time,
landing few light blows on the face,
but devoting most of his attention to
Papke'sa body. Papke did little in re-
turn, holding on desperately all the
time. The uproar in the hall grew in
Intensity as the bout continued, and
reached its climax in the twelfth, when
several thousand men stood on their
chairs and yelled in one voice;
'Don't ring the bell" The timekeep-
er did not strike the gong at the end
of three minutes and the hoxers wres-
tied around the ring for five minutes
when the bell rang and Moha was given
the decision.

dered and in trying to move away slipped
on the wet pavement. The car struck
him before he could regain his footing
Bolanien was put into police ambu-
lance with two other injured men who
had been picked up. Upon arrival at

anien and his partner lived at 275 Shaw
NUT avenue, a lodging house, where but
little is known concerning them.
