Springfield, Ill.,. June 1S.-Nlrs. Julia

during a practice flight at the state fair

ILWAUEEE, Wis, June Is
MI The Johnson-Flynn champion
~ ship hattie set for Las Vegas,
\. NJ. July 4. has drawn the attention
of fbe United States senators and con-
aressmen: in fact, so much so that they
have practically put through Dill pro
bfbftine- the sending Of fight films IN
interstate commerce That IS certainly
going pretty far to try and prevent a
boxing match. No doubt the whole al
fair IS the result Of the agitation IN
1910 when such a howl went up about
showing pictures Of the fight wherein
the colOred man was victor over the
white man. No doubt, too, the same
impression prevailed when the john
son-Wells fight was stopped in Eng
land.
However. the legislature of New
Mexico had no feeling IN the matter,
one way or the other, for they passed
a law legalizing boxing bouts, and not
to be OutdOne, her sister state, Arizona,
also passed a law legalizinS boxing
to the extent of 20 round bouts. While
there are many mOllycOddles who want
to prohibit all kinds of sport, boxing
included. still there are hundreds OF
thousands Of men and boys who ike
the sport, the same as they like base
ball, and who demand to have it. This
move Of the senators and congressman
seems ridiculous. although it may be
doing some good in stopping the spec
uIators in picture films from mixing
too much in boxing matches. 1t IS not
so much sport any more; 1t is all COM
mercialism, the same as baseball, with
the sporting sentiment taking a back
seat.
Still. the Johnson Flynn fight is as
sured and if pictures are taken there
may be such a thing as Transporting
them about the country In aeroplanes
or automobiles. That would be 4 new
stunt and Barney Oldfield being good

friend of Jim FIynn's, would hardly OBJ
ject TO making a record breaking trip
to Chicago after the fight to produce
the films at some theater, and then rush
on TO New York with another set It
might make some Of the railroad mag
mates jealous, but there is always a
way to get around some laws. AS to the
fight itself, why. that is another cues
ton.
Boxing critics viii not believe that
Flynn has chance against the cOlOred
man. unless "Mistah" Jack has gone
back, the same as Jetfries did when he
laid off several years, and that ap
pears to be their only hope. Flynn has
donned a mitt-TOmmy Ryan-and II
good advice and careful training
amounts to anything, then the Pueblo
fireman is liable TO give a good ac-
count of himself I had a photo Of
Johnson taken in fighting pose the 9TH
er day and the cOlored champion sure
looked heavy and fat. 1t will take
some hard work to get all that fat OFF
during the few weeks left to train, but
even with this apparent handicap john
son viii figure a big favOrite, at least
three to one. 1t took Johnson IA rounds
to beat Tommy Burns and then he
didn't stop him and Tommy is no big
ger than Flynn, so taking all matters
into consideration, there may be hope
for Jim. If Flynn remains on the de-
fensive for Is or more rounds and
weathers the storm there is no telling
what may happen then If JohnsOn's
condition is not the best why then is
the time that it viii tell and il viii be
up to the fireman then to do his work
There will be 4 difference Of so pounds
in weight, but remember that when
Tom Sayers fought John c. Heenan for

ers weighed only 156 and Heenan about
225. Therefore let US hope that Flynn
will prove another Sayers-

in aviation during the international avia-
ton meet in Chicago in August, 1911.
She became acquainted with the flyers
in camp and last fall went to San Diego.
Cal, to learn to operate a biplane. With
several other aviators she was under con-
tract to fill a series of engagements in
the central west this summer.
Mrs Clarke was Il native of London
England and was married soon after her
arrival in America. She had not been
living with 8lr. Clarke for some time
friends say. She was arranging for a
two weeks practice course at the Chi
cagO field, having had no practice for a
month after getting her license. when
the engagement at Springfield was made
and she felt she would be able to keen
it in spite OF her little recent flying prac-

Q.-When was the Church of Christ
set up; and in what sense was Peter
the doorkeeper; and when will he use
the keys Of the kingdom of heaven?
Matthew xvi:1s. Il. w. W.
Answer-The Church Of Christ was
established or set up on the day Of
PenteCOs+ when the Holy Spirit de-
scended upon the Apostles who we're
gathered together in Jerusalem. 1t
has been in process of development
throughout this Christian era and will
be completed when the last member
has finished the course and entered
into the heavens, The Lord Jesus is
the Founder or Head Of the Church
which He established on the day Of
Pentecost. In John X:9, the Lord de-
clared that He was the door" by
which it would be possible for any to
enter in and be saved. No door
keeper" was ever needed. as the Lord
is amply able To attend to Himself
and to manage His own interests. st.
Peter, therefore, is never referred to
in the Scriptures as the "doorkeeper."
The keys of the kingdom" represent
the opening power which the Lord con-
ferred upon Peter. There were two
keys one of which the Apostle used
on the day of Pentecost, when he,
under the inspiration of the Holy
Spirit, addrCsse the Jews, opening
the way for them to enter into the
Kingdom through Christ. The second
key was used when the Apostle
opened the way for the Gentiles to
enter in, ana Cornelius, the first Gen
tile convert, passed through the
Door" Christ, into the church.

IMPORTING GAME BIRDS.

A Chicago fancier has just import
ed 1000 birds from abroad for pro-
pagation in this country. The collec-
ton OF breeding birds which reached
New York about the.frs Of the cur
rent week comprised ducks from Lake
Baikal, in Siberia; geese swans and
ducks from Formosa. Japan, Egypt,
Holland, South Africa and scattering
points in Europe. A larger collection
Of African birds is yet to arrive.
Il is feared that only a compare
lively few varities viii thrive under
the changed climatic conditions, and
very likely some Of the varieties that
will prove adaptable will be valuable
acquisitions.
In view Of the disappointment oc-
rasioned by bird importations of the
past, a sportsman says:
There is always the element of
risk in importing new varities, how
ever, that they will make aggressive
war on the native breeds. 1t would
be deplorable beyond expression il
some fishy tasting duck from an Afri-
can or Asiatic lake should drive out
our canvasbacks or redheads. 1t is

knows just what he is about"

THE RESOLUTION OF CONGRESS
MAN HIGGINS.

The idea Of longer presidential
term is not new. for it is said the
f0ur-year term was compromise
with those who would not approve of
Jefferson's plan to have a national
election held once in seven years.
Jefferson, who at first much de-
plored the change TO a four years
term, wrote in his autobiography:
Tho practice adopted think is
better. allowing his continuance for
eight years. with the liability of being
dropped at halfway Of the term.
making that period of probation.
The example Of four presidents volun-
-arilv retiring at the end of their
eighth year, and the progress Of pub
.c opinion that the principle is salu-
tary. have given it in practise the
form of precedent and usage: inso-
much that should a president consent
SOD be a candidate for a third election,
] trust he would be rejected on this
demonstration Of ambitious views"
Jefferson in 1S0S-when he had been
out four years-was strongly urged.

einptorily refused. In 1895 several

more presidents will oppose the obsta-
Gle Of habits to any one after a while
who shall endeavor 10 extend his

In reply to the legislative calls ad
dressing himself particularly to that
from Vermont, jefferson wrote:
If some determination to the serv-
ice Of the chief magistrate be not
fixed by the constitution or supplied

four years. viii, in fact, become for
