II Is understood that President Taft

Softly rose the lltany:
suffer them to come to me;
These my Fathers chosen be,
All the little children"
Where the faithful knelt in prayer,
To their Father singing, there
Trembled on the scented air
Voices OF the children.
Where the wheels Of traffic groaned,
Men OF Mammon, high enthroned,
Other litany intoned
For the little children;
Fercely swelling, loud and strong,
Raucous rang their savage song
Where the chafering traders throng
"Suffer, little children!
"These the gates of wealth unbar,
these upbear our triump's car,
These our choicest chattels are
Suffer, little childen!
Little hands must heap our gains,
Little backs must bear our pains,
Little wrists be wrapped in chains
Suffer, little children!"
Little faces, pinched and old,
LlttiC IIHSCtN, OluC WItll COlu,
Little lives ground into gold
Suffer, little children!
Clacking looms made quick reply,
Whirring wheels took up the cry,
EchOing back hell's litany:
"Suffer, little childrenT'
From the "hOme" where hunger hides
From the street where foulness chides
From the den where plague abides,
"Suffer, little childrenr'
From the parching furnace gleam,
From the sweatshOp's sinking steam
Hope is here an idle DREAM
Suffer, little childrenr'
Theirs the want that wastes by day
Theirs the haste that may not stay,
Theirs to toll, with blows for pay
Suffer, little children!"
Theirs unguessed revenge that brings
oeeking death on countless wings
Where his hell chant Mammon sings
"Suffer, little children!"
Crooked back and stunted brain,
Heart Of hate and brow OF pain,
Youth worked out for Mammon's s
gain
Suffer, little childrenr'
Racking cough and aching limb,
Ears grown dull and eyes worn dim
This is how they come to Him
Who called the little children.
Still the organs drOning voice
L.ds good Christian men rejoice;
Still they tell the Savior's choice:
"COme, We little children"
Still in market, mine and mill

Wasting youths fair garden still,

WHITE HOPE

NEW YORK, February 17.-Bob
Fitzsimmons is preparing a surprise
for fight lovers. He has no intention
of coming back into the ring in per-
son, reports to the contrary notwith-
standing. But he is coming back as
the hacker of his husky son. Bob
Fitzsimmons Jr, whom he has been
secretly training as white hope" at
his place at Dunnellan, N. ]. The
junior Fitzsimmons is a good-looking,
husky young fellow of IT, He is 6
feet tall, weighs 100 pounds of solid
muscle, and has a punch in both
hands, backed by all the ring craft and
generalship that his clever sire has
been able to impart to him in long
and careful training. Fitzsimmons,
father and son, live on a large farm
at the little village of Dunnellan, and

sparring and training. Both are fit

boy is the only one likely to- take up
the fight question seriously. Bob Sir,
has great hopes of the lad winning as
many laurels as his illustrious father
AS, in view of the youngsters age,
it is not likely that any very serious
attempt will be made for a year or
two to snatch the championship
wreath from Johnson, it is probable
that Bob Jr., will, when the time
comes, have acquired remarkable prize
ring skill under the able tutelage of
his dad. AS an embryonic white mans

experts who have journeyed to Dun

campaign this season. He will race
the following horses abroad next sum-
mer; Fitzherbtrt, Novelty, zeus, Pug

When it was pointed out that this
list totaled thirteen Mr.. Kohler
laughed and said: 81 like thirteen. /
was born September 10, 81, and there
are thirteen letters in my name. Alto
gether, l think that thirteen being the
number of horses in training is rather
a lucky thing for me-"
Speaking of the turf situation in
America shortly after his arrival in
England, Mr.. Kohler said;
Wllulu d blOlL WullG AbNlh5 ~
America will be better than ever,
and will draw to it much better class
of supporters. Already many men
who took little or no interest in the
turf are being attracted to it. The
professional element has been wiped
out and wiped out so completely it will
never return to threaten any danger
to the sport.
"All our stables are scattered and
when racing is resumed there will be
necessity for owners and breeders to
purchase on a large scale, English
breeders can look forward to a great
market in America within few years,
as present conditions are sure to lie
short lived and the turf will be re-
vived to a healthier and better life
than ever"

George Gilmore in a fifteen-round
boxing contest this evening.
Observation-Disclosures
principals are fit and we'll and no eff
fort has been spared to make the en-
tertainment the best of it's kind ever
staged in Honolulu.
A slight change has been made in
the curtain-raiser between Copeland
and Verify. This bout will be of six
rounds duration instead of four as pre-
viously announced.
The card is a lengthy ore and no
delays will be allowed. If a boxer
isn't on hand at the scheduled time
a fine will be imposed for every five
minutes that the audience is kept wait
ing.
The principals in the main event
will weigh in at Dick Sullivan's place
at p. m. There is no doubt about
de Mello making the weight but Gil
more may find it somewhat of tight
fit.
The keenest interest is being shown
in the main event tonight. De Mello
has a tremendous following of his
countrymen Gilmore also has hosts
of hackers, The battle is expected to
be bitter Crowds of each race will
be at the ringside to root for their
man.
Both men are in excellent shape and
determined to win. Gilmore is the
favorite both on account of his supe-
rior reach and experience. His best
punch is short right hook which
should be more effective against de
Mello on account of the latter's rush
ing tactics. De Mello's tearing in con-
tainually makes the power of Gill
more's punch more dangerous when 1t
