 saw the Johnson-Flynn fight and week later l saw the pictures of the same. If there is the slightest incident at which otiense can be taken in them l would like to have it pointed out to me. While the pictures were being shown recently at the Crystal theater in Denver many times half the audience were ladies. None of them left before the end of the reel had been shown Had there been anything objection ten up and walked out.
 But the fads of some must be satisfied. The publicity that goes with feat of this kind is needed to mould political capital in some sections of the country and the law was passed. You don't for mo- ment believe that those in congress who voted for the bill did so be- cause the fight pictures were objec- tionable to them-not by a jug full To be consistent they must forbid the showing of other subjects that demoralize. When they do that, then, as usual, they'll have killed off an
 industry which gives employment to thousands. "Das is freiheit," said a prominent German when he learned of it. Maybe this is the land of the free, but take it from those who know and they'll tell you that con tinental Europe enjoys more liber- ties in one week than We do in a year-in some things.

Two cupfuls of whole wheat flour, three teaspoonfuls of baking powder, sifted with one cup of white flour one teaspoonful of salt, one-fourth cup of sugar, one-half cup of chop ped walnuts, and one and two-thirds cups of milk. Bake as single loaf, or in gem pans for half an hour. Currants or raisins may be used for nuts.
 Potato Fluff.
 Wash medium-si potatoes in cold water and steam over kettle of boiling water without peeling: when tender, slip off the skins, mash fine in an earthen dish, season with salt and pepper, one-half cup of but ter and one cup of rich cream (rich milk may be used if cream is not to be had.) Add one level teaspoon ful of best baking powder, and beat it vigorously with an egg-whip until the potato is white and fluffy. Serve hot in an uncovered dish.

OLYMPIC HEROES RETURN.

The athletes once more in the home land number twenty-one in all and include such stars as Clarence s. Ed mondson of the Seattle A. C., s. H. Bellah, of Portland, Ore; Lewis Te- wanima, the Carlisle Indian; John Paul Jones and Reidpath, the Syra cuse man who won the 600 meters When the Vaderland, which brought them home, warped in at the dock big crowd was on the pier and a rousing cheer greeted the lads who have helped to cover American ath- letics with glory.

Congress has placed ban on fight in the reproduction of a prize fight as demoralizing as We find in films that pass the censorship of the au- thorities whose approval must be secured before they can be exhibit. ed? Is there anything so corrupting 10 morals as stage-coach robberles, the depicting of how children are schooled i'll the art of crime, all sorts of elopement tragedies, the portraying Of how homes are ruined by false friends, the killing of de- fenseless animals in brutal fashion. and hundreds of subjects too num- erous to mention? This sort of stuff Is tolerated and the prize fight, in which two trained athletes pit their skill and courage against each other, is forbidden and condemned Truly, it makes the most abject skeptic stand agape at the things in general.
 What is there so terribly shock ing in reproducing priZe-fighting pie lures? l have never found anything in viewing the pictures that drove spectators into Mysteries or caused them to faint away at the sight before them. The whole trouble in the prize-fighting exhibition of pie lures at the present times is that d colOred man beat white man. Had the white man Won-l mean. had lief fries won at RenO-there would nev- CT have been the slightest opposition to the pictures It was immediately after the Jeffries-J Johnson fight that the agitation against the animated fight pictures began.
 So far as l am personally concern ed l wouldn't care if they never ex- hibited a picture of a fight again But the injustice of the whole thing Is what gets my goat. How they can make fish of one and fowl of the other is beyond explanation in this case look for President Taft 10 sign the bill just passed. He has political deals on, especially with the members of congress hailing from down below the Mason and Dixon line. The very thought of a white man engaging in battle with a ne. gro, to say nothing about the col ored man proving the victor. was could stand That's why the strong

The idea is to make the paste little softer than can be roll ed before it is stiff with cold and to use as little flour as possible. The doughnuts should be turned contin- ually while they are frying
 Maryland Ice.
 Two quarts of ripe strawberries. ? pounds of sugar, one-half cupful of powdered sugar, pint of cream, l teaspoonful of vanilla or almond extract, one-half cupful of chopped nuts.
 This makes a beautiful dish to serve; ring of pink ice about the round, white center of frozen cream. It is especially pretty for luncheon where whole color scheme is car ried out. Orange ice may be used for yellow and white luncheon; strawberry ice for pink and white i; and lemon ice, colored with pis, tachio. for green and white. Or a plain pineapple ice may be used, the center to be filled with straw. berry cream. Then result is worth all the trouble required
 Be sure that the strawberries art ripe. Mash them with the granu.

BUzzARD WITH BELL
 FRIGHTENS FARMERS

READING, Pa, Aug. 15. For a month or two farmers in various saw a flock of turkey buzzards feed awakened at night by the sound of an old-fashioned cowbell. which ap- peared to be ringing overhead. It was uncanny, and suggestive of "spooks," and kept many awake at night. Efforts to locate the strange sounds proved fruitless. Usually in the morning some of the chickens were missing.
 But at last the mysterious ring ing has been explained. Adam Scho. nour, at Charming Forge, near Wo- melsdorf, while at work in his field, saw flock of turkey buzzerds feed ing on the carcass of a dead calf. He crept up within 50 feet of the
