ANNIVERSARY 0F DAY
 HART BEAT JOHNSON

Although Marvin Hart never rank pd very high in the opinion of boxing fans, and his claim to the heavyweight championship was generally regarded as ''phony," he turned a trick eight years ago to-day that only one other white man has accomplished. It was on March 2S, 1905, that Hart and Jack Johnson met in a San Francisco ring. The black man was in poor condition. and seemed to lack both the desire and the ability to extend him self The result after twenty rounds of slow fighting was a decision in Hart's favor.
 A little later. hpon the retirement of Jim Jeffries, Hart claimed the worlds title. Jeffries has denied that he transferred the title to Hart, and any way, a boxing championship is a thing to be fought for, and remains the property of the holder only as long as he is willing and able to de- fend it Early in 1908 Tommy Burns defeated Hart in a twenty-round bout in Los Angeles, and Marvin soon van tshed from the sporting page. John sons first defeat by a white man was when he was put to sleep by Joe Choynski in Galveston in 1901.
 Marvin Hart's last appearance in the sporting records was three years ago, when he met Carl Morris in Okla homa. Never very good, Hart was then only a wreck of his former self, and Morris, the green boxer, stopped him in three rounds. CarPs defeat of the "ex-champion" was heralded by his press agent a mighty achievement. Two years ago to-day

NEW CREATIONS IN PAR1sIAN
 HAT SHAPES

A new sfApe that is likely to be much fancied for wear with tailored suits is one with the brim made very much higher on one side, SO that while erately important crown on the left, it only provides an inch or two of turn-up on the right.
 This Is shown in tagal, all the same color, or in two coIors, one for the brfn and one for the crown; and also in hair, when the brown is usually dispensed with and there is merely a rim of the braid upon which to fas- ten a soft crown of satin or other material.
 In black hats with a crown of some dark colored satin and two sheaves of numfdi fastened to the back this makes a very useful demi-saison hat. If economy is an object, hair aigrettes may be substitu@d for the numidi without deterioratfng much from the general effect.
 Another new shape consists of a low founda ton like an inverted saucer, to which is joined a semi-circular shaped brim running about three-quarterS round it and standing up in flutes very high on the right side. This Is intended to be worn tilted toward the left ear and to have the aigrette or fancy fastened erect behind the huted portion of the brim.
 Shapes of this sort may have their foundation concealed beneath a beret arrangement in satin, taffeta or net. But a more novel idea, is to mount over it a circular box crown with a flat top. Such crowns are sold sep arately, both in straw of different col ors and in sparterie for covering with material.
 If the hat itself is dark blue, a black one of bright cerise taga1 is applica- ble, Or else one covered with soft broche silk, often white, cream or beige
 Other new shapes are brimless in front far as the ears .and finish behind like the prov of a boat. One of these seen in navy blue tagal was trimmed at the side with a curious sort of fancy composed of two blue green cocks wings surmounted by half a dozen quills from which the barbs had been cut, many having only little punches at their tips, fur ther ornamented with tiny cravat

WHY CHICKENS INSIST ON TAXES
 TO PROTECT THEIR PLUMES.

No success can be obtained with poultry unless the fowls are kept com fortable. A fowl drenched with rain is not comfortable. A man caught in a rainstorm can change his clothing and thus save catching cold, but a fowl must allow her clothing to dry on her. No fowl can stand a con stant exposure to inclement eather, and the more we protect them the better will be the results.-Stockman and Farmer.

TARIFF REVISION
At EXTRA SESSION
NO OTHER LEGISLATION UNTIL
DEMOCRATIC REVISION MEAS
UREs HAVE GONE THROUGH.
THE PLANS ARE OUTLINED
Wilson's Date for the Extra Session,
April 7, PIeases the Demo-
cratic Leaders.

Washington.-Th extra session Of
congress, called by President Wilson
to assemble April 7, will begin with
nothing but the tariff revision bills
before it. This fact was made clear
in statement by Representative I'm.
derwood, chairman of the house com
mittee on ways and means. Until
tariff legislation is well undsr way
in the house, no general COMMITTEES
will be named and no other legislative
subjects will be taken up.
The president specified no subject
for the extra session in his prOclama-
ton; but it is fully understood that
his message to congress at its open
ing will dwell upon the need Of tariff
revision. If currency, Philippine in.
dependence, Alaskan affairs, woman
suffrage or other pressing questions
are finally forced upon the attention
of congress, it will be only after the
Democratic leaders of the two houses
and the president are convinced that
the success of tariff revision is as
sured.
The date fixed for the tariff session
was accepted by congressional lead.
ers with satisfaction. Senate commit
tees are organized for work and will
take up the preliminary stages Of
much general legislation early in April
and a general agreement exists to
keep general subjects out of active
discussion while tariff legislation is
under way.
House leaders will be ready to go
ahead with tariff revision as soon as
the session cOnyenes.
The date fixed by President wilson
is satisfactory to US said Represon-
tative Underwood. THE tariff legis,
lation will be ready for presentation
to the house by that time and we
should be at work upon it in the
house within three or four days after
the house convenas."
