BEATS KETCHEL
Hibbing Fighter Has Better
of Every Round But One
in Milwaukee Bout.

Milwaukee, Wis. March Pal
Brown of Hibbing last night earned
decision over Steve Ketchel of Chicago
after ten rounds of battling. Brown
had a shade the better Of every round
except the first. Brown outboxed. out
punched and outgeneraled the Chicago
boy.
& There was not knockdown, but it
was full of excitement, Ketchel being
able to keep going fast enough to the
last second of the fight to make his
followers think he might land
knockout punch.
In the first round Ketchel forced
the fighting. making an excellent
showing. although Brown was holding
back and waiting for opportunity
to land effective blows. Brown was
willing to mix things, but Ketchel
forced the work. The round was a
standoff between the two boys, but in
the second Brown began to take the
measure of his man, and poked in sew
eraI sharp jolts to the jaw. Ketche1
showed symptoms of wildness and
though Brown landed several hard
blows, he missed couple of swings
for the jaw.
The third, like the second, was all
Browns. In the sharpest mixup of the
round pushed in a hard left to the jaw
that staggered Ketchel. and followed
it with a right to the stomach.
The fourth started in with Brown
playing all around Ketchers guard.
Brown had all the better of the bat

BURNING WOMEN ALIVE. 7
A Punishment That Was Abolished In
England In 1890.

The horrible punishment of burning
women alive seems 10 have existed in
Saxon England. but perhaps only in
the case of slaves. Under the Norman
rulers any woman. bond or free, who
killed her husband was burned alive.
and the same punishment for this
crime and also for high treason and
even for coining and other minor Of
fenses continued or arose from tinie to
time through the second ana third pc
RODS until it was abolished by act of
parliament in 1890, the last actual exc
cution of this kind having, however,
taken place six years earlier.
The whipping of women for various
offenses continued even later. Public
whipping was not abandoned until 1877,
and eases of private whipping occurred
as late as 1920.
There can be no doubt, we think,
that the savage human instinct OF
cruelty had something TO do with the
barbarous punishments above mention

His problem being to light pipe out of

his fingers around the match to preserve,
at all hazards, the vital spark of what Is
probably-his last match. There are ex-

there is method in his madness. He is
that one per cent. that smokes not at all
or on the half dozen occasions in year
when he. is plunged into an atmosphere
that would be intolerabie without some
means of self-defense.
But the woman's way Is right, as every
smoker knows to his cost He goes on
scraping toward himself because 1t is so
often the only way by which he can light
refractory pipe at windy corner. that
it becomes habit. Yet every smoker can

Another capacity house greeted the
speaker, Pres Robert J. Alley Of the Uni

Sunday afternoon. Many said it was tie
best of a series of very successful meet

A moving picture OF Winter Logging in

Pres. Alley began by saying that it
doubtless occurred to many that it was a
strange thing for a man who has been u
citizen of Maine for only 30 months to
be called upon to speak upon theg topic
MY state of Maine" His native state Is
Indiana, and four years he has been in

hearty greeting of its men and women,

her honored history, he explains his new
allegiance by comparison with an event
that took place in his youth. As boy.
he thought his mother the noblest, most

Another interesting observation or

with the air imprisoned in icebergs.
The Wilderness of those he examined

was extremely hard, even difficult to
chop with an ak. He made some ice
water on shipboard with iceberg ice,
and was surprised to find that it effer-
vesced like soda water, owing to the
rapid release of imprisoned air bub-
bles as the ice melted. This observation
may contain a suggestion for the man

ice would have certain obvious advan-

popular beverages. Probably other spe-

could not carry his speed over a dis

state, who are not sous or fgrandsons OF
the Pine Tree State.
The story is told that Vice Pres. Ham
nibal iiamlm was once on a trip through
the Western states with party of sena-
tors from those sections. Each, as they
passed through their native place, relat-
ed the wonderful products that each
brought forth-corn, wheat, lumber, oil
etc. Hamlin listened in patience, ana
when they had all boosted, remarked
quietly:
Maine produces. men!'
What Maine needs TO prepare the COM
ing geperations for better citizenship was
next discussed by Pres Alley. The first
quality for incubation he declared to be
common honesty, Of which not too much
can be said. 1t is a primal virtue. Cour-
age to do the hard things of life in a
brave way is another requisite There
are plenty of applicants for easy jobs.
1t has been found that the great cause
for sinking into life of vice in the large
cities is the desire to avoid the difficult
tasks of life. Brains is another necessity:
modern battles are fought between mas
tiers of thought, and our coming Maine
men and women must be trained so as to
develop them mentally to the highes
