Professor Sargent Says She IL Of Low

Boston.-That woman is q lower or

head Of the department of physical
culture at Harvard. and well known
as q writer upon subjects pertaining
to woman's development
Are women constitutionally tougher
than men? This Ia the question upon
which Doctor Sargent was asked to
pass judgment II was also question
which was brought up by Prof John
M. Tyler Of Amherst at the meeting
of the American Physical Education
association
TT IL a question which is dificult
to answer" declared Doctor Sargent.
perhaps because the word tough Is
one capable Of so many interpreta-
lions. Taken in the sense Of meaning
more enduring. I should be inclined to
believe that women were in that re-
gard superior to men.
cit stands to reason that since they
are constructed on a plan better
suited to cope with physical forces of
a certain kind. they should be able to
Withstand conditions which man. who
is built with an entirely dissimilar OBJ
ject in view. is unable to contend
with.
Briefly. we may say that woman is
nearer the savage state. Her devel-
opment is more primitive than mans,
Just as the Indian Is more primitive
than a white man.

REBELS FIGHT HARD
Eye Witnesses Describe the Battle of
HanxoXY.

Victoria. Nov. 24-stories Of eye
witnesses who saw the engagement
near Hankow received by the Kama
kura Maru last night say that the
revolutionaries fought with great cour-
age. They lost a battery of artillery
after a desperate fight. Major Lo,
who was in command, attempted to
desert to the government troops when
a gunner stepped forward and shot
him at the request of General Ho
whose leg was shot away and who was
being borne off the field.
Among those who fought in the
revolutionary army We're a band of
students, most of them under 20. The
retention of the Yuati Gate station
near Hankow was mainly at
tributable to these youths who were
armed only with swords. One charge
was made by d party of workrnen
armed only with iron bars and slaves.
This party captured three machine
guns.
Near Hankow station a gun lost all
its men except one, who continued
firing the piece. Ten men went to his
rescue with swords but all were killed.
A number of foreigners watched the
fighting from the rebel side being
escorted to the signal station at head
quarters where some staff officers ex-
planned in fluent English the plan of
the engagement.

NO ONE FOR HAYES PLACE

The successor to the late A A
Hayes as freight auditor of the Atchi-
