Catching the Speakers Eye.

The practice of catching the speak
er's eye" dates back to the session Of
1910, when heated dispute arose be-
tween members of the house. several
Of whom claimed precedence of speech.
1t was then decided that whoever first
caught the speakers eye should have
the right to address the house. This
rule worked smoothly until 1855, when
Sir John Trevor was elected to the
chair. The new speaker was afflicted
with an abominable squint; consequent
Iy two members would often catch his
eye simultaneously and decline to give
way to one another. To obviate this a
further rule was framed % the effect
that the speaker should c:.'l by name
upon the member privileged to address
the house. SO every holder of the Of
fee has to possess a good memory for
names as well as keen eyesight.-Lon-

about the size of pea, and this she
carries about with her wherever she

they discover their strength they fall

The wild scramble to discover a

ure of Jack Johnson continues. Judg-
ing by the pictures of the Carl Morris
Mike Schreckt fight, there's little hope
in Morris for the jor nf putting "Lil
Atbs" into the arms of the pugilistic
Morpheus. and that feeling is strength
ened Nv the fact that Morris probably
will take on Jim Flynn. the fighting
fireman, for an early battle, and that
there are those who say that this sec
Ond rater can send Morris to Slumber-
land. Over in England our British
cousins are banking some on Bomba-
der Wells to turn the trick eventually.
However, aS Wells isn't growing any
younger as Johnson ages, the pros

anyone else are not bright.

the desire to restore the social stand

made TO revive other features that
formerly distinguished it--honest bet
