SUNDAY BOXING IS
ALLOWED In LONDON
(By T. S. Andrews.)

IL ..
It is seldom that boxing matches
are scheduled before a club on the
Sabbath day, but there is one club in
the world where fights are held on
Sundays only and that is the good old
town of London, England. There is
no regularly organized club in any
part of the Tvorld-that is in the large
boxing centers-where a match would
be tolerated on the Sabbath, and for
that reason 1t makes this one some
what of a curiosity. 1t is called the
Judeans club, and is patronized wholly
end solely by the followers of the
IeTish faith. Some fine bouts are
hel&7there on Sunday afternoons, and
xThilefrthe purses are not large, the
cIu9 -gees good boys together and has
turned out some splendid boxers dur
ing the five years of its existence.
The authorities of London know of the
club and the Sunday shows, but they
simply pass it by and pay no attention
to it.
The latest stir by Jack johnson in
Europe is the report that he will take
TO aviation and enter some of the big
races in France and Belgium. Jack
went over to Brussels and made a
big talk about how he was a great
aviator and that he was after a big
aeropIane to enter in some of the
races. Jack probably forgot that in
gets licenses to run an aeroplane; that
is, not barring, of color, but the tests
are severe before the governing body
will grant a license, and every one
who enters a. public race meet must
have a license before he or she can
start The tests are. becoming more
severe, too, every year, and if the
colored champion tries the game he
will find it difficult to get his license.
But Danish the thought Jack will
never take chance on flying through
the air as long he can induce some
club to put UP a purse for a fight
between himself and some other heavy
weight, even Sam Langford. And
this follows the report that Lii Ar
thur has just agreed to meet
the tar baby in France, a week be-
fare Christmas. You can gamble that
BACK needed the cash, otherwise he
would have made Samuel wait, for he
has not much love for the tar baby
from Boston. The time will give
johnson plenty of time to train and
get in condition, but the question
arises: Will he train and be in shape?
IF Jack is in good shape he will give
Samuel some argument and no mis-
sake but Sam will have it on him in
4ge and condition.

hours. prAyins that death would re-
lease her spirit before the body Of
her lover was buried to-day.
II was recognized at once when tho
seventeen year -oid girl was taken to the
hospital early yesterday morning that
death was Inevitable. for . bullet had
passed clear through her body Just
above the heart and she was suffering
internal hemmorhascs. Tho giri showed
remarkable vitality. however. and her
body fought the advance OF death. even
while her mind prayed for It. During

preached her dead lover for not having

the people would adopt if they got a
vote on it.
The leaders have been trying to
agree on amendments to the Wood
ard bill, which would offer the peo-
pie two general subjects. The fri
would be, for instance, Shall all thu
normal schools be maintained?' The
second would embrace. provision Sep
arately listing all of the normals, so
the elector could vote for the ones he
desired to continue. If the vote on
the question of continuing all the
schools should receive an affirmative
majority then it would make no diff
ference what the vote was on the in
dividual schools. for in the affirma-
tive vote the people would consent to
abolishing no normal. If the negative
side Of the first proposition should
receive the majority, then three state
normals of the individual list receiv-
ing the smallest number of votes
would be closed and abandoned.
The same rulo is contemplated on
the university preparatory schools at
Tonkawa and Claremore, the five dis
trict agricultural schools and the

in most localities, and second, the IN
creased efficiency OF the fre-ilgh'-
ing organization. As congress makes
available the means for extending the
system of communications on the ma
tional forests the equipment of tlalls,
roads. telephones and lookout stations
is yearly enlarged and the fires, 1t
is said, are discovered more quickly
and fought more rapidly.
An especially good showing was
made by the forest officers last year
in extingulshing fires outside the ma
tional forests before they reached
he forest boundaries. Such fires
constituted more than one-sixth OF
all fought by the forest rangers ana
guards. About nine-tenths were eX-
tingushed before they touched the
forests. OF the fires within the for
est boundaries more than IS per cent
were on lands in private ownership.
Nearly one-fourth of the extra eXpenf-
lures due to fighting fires-that is,
expenditures outside the time OF the
regular forest force--was incurred in
fighting these fires.
Lightning caused more fires than
any other agency followed by rail-
roads. campers, and incendiaries, in
the order given. The greatest losses
occurred in Arizona, Arkansas and
California, in which states there was
also the largest proportion of fires
caused by lightning and by incendiar
ism. About y per cent of all the
fires were started by lightning and
about 3S per cent were due to care
lessness. The proportion in each
case was practically the same as in
the previous year
Tie total number of fires was q
472, as compared with 1869 in 1911.
They burned over, in the aggre gate,
100000 acres as against 100000 in
1911. California led all states in
total number of fires, and in the num-
Der caused by lightning, Arizona stood
second in both cf these classifica-
tions. Arkansas stood fourth in the
total number of fires and first in those
of incendiary origin. with California
second. The only national forest in
Kansas had only one fire, which burn
ed over less than ten acres and cost
Sill to eXtinguish. North Dakota
had no fires on its one small forest.
OF of the 2,472 fires over IS per cent
were put out before 10 acres were
burned over, and nearly so per cent
before one-quarter of an acre was
covered. Only 12 fires caused dam
age of more than $1,000 each.

TO SETTLE MATTER o SCHOOLS
Referendum Vote as 10 Adjustment
OF Certain Institutions.

Oklahoma City, Okla, March IS
One product of the special session
g to be a referendum vote on whether
certain state educational institutions
are To be abolished. 1t was tacitly
agreed between house leaders and
Gov. Cruce when the matter of re-
submitting appropriations for the in
stitutions was under consideration,
that if the authority for making ap-
propriations for the normals and 9th
er schools was put before the special
session the attempts to rush such
bills through the regular session would
be abandoned and, in addition the
leaders agreed to put through the
Woodland bill, referring the question
of the schools existence to vote of
the people.
The governor is not understood as
agreeing to approve appropriations
for all of the normals, but would make
a general recommendation for edu
cational appropriations. 1t would still
be within his province to veto any
of the bills he saw fit.
The Woodard bill not reached on
the regular house calendar, will be
offered during the special session
its provisions calling for abolishment
cf all the district agricultural schools
with the exception of that at Goodwell
Texas county, and abolishing both OF
the university prep schools at Ton
kawa and Claremore, and three state
normals to be named. 1t has been
frequently asserted that unless the
legislature made a reduction in the
number of institutions, there would
be initiated bill equal in terms to
that of the late Akin measure, which
