Old Dominion.

The Old Dominion company is mak- ing heavy gain in output. The May figures were the largest on record, be- Ing 3303. 900 pounds, gain of 550,0O0 pounds over the same months last year. For the five months from Jan. to May 3l the output has been 4,942,- 900 pounds or 100000 pounds more than year ago.
 The case of Albert s. Bigelow against the Old Dominion Copper Min ing x Smelling company. in which Mr. Bgelow asks for leave to file d petition to review decree of the su- preme judicial court. made four years ago. ordering him to pay more than 2,OOO, ,OOOS to the Old Dominion, was on the list for hearing this week before Judge De Courcy in the equity session of that court. A cart load of bound financial volumes of New York and Boston papers had been brought into the court room 10 be used in evidence.
 Owing to the large number of cases in which counsel responde ed that they were ready for hearings, Judge De- Courcy remarked that as it would be impossible to dispose of them this week and as the consultation of the full court next week ana other mat ters would render it necessary to con- tnue cases until fall, the judge sug- gested that as far as possible counsel who desired to expedite their cases had better agree upon masters to hear them.
 Moortield Storey, counsel for Bige- low, thereupon informed the court that he believed under the circum- stances this case should go to a master as iJ would involve the taking of much testimony.
 E. F. McClennen for the Old Do- minion company said that he thought that the court should hear this case inasmuch as the action asked for was without precedent. The court was not only asked to reverse it's own ac- tion, but also to reverse decree of the supreme court sof the United tates.-COpper Era.

 But take the case of the young col lege boy who goes into a seasons foot ball play. He runs real risk every time he goes out to practice. He is battered more in one scrinmage prac- tice session than Packey Mcfarland has been in his entire ring career. He is likely to suffer injury or death-a real danger. no remote one as in pugi- lism. In fact, the chance of injury in the ring seems as 1 to 100 compared to the dangers of football
 If football is permitted, boxing ought to be lifted up and pointed out as a model by the safety first people of the sport world.
 But an idea is killing boxing It is not the injuries received in boxing that make the game objectionable to many. It Is the knowledge that, while injury in football is accidental, in boxing it is intentional.

CARPENTER sMELLED NO POWDER

WHILE the world has been singing
 the praises of Georges Carpenter as a hero because he dropped the busi- ness of gathering a million dollars as a pugilist to take up arms for France. Georges has been quietly taking rest cure out of the range of dumdun1s and other German what nots.
 A letter from newspaper man in Paris says that when the war broke out Carpenter announced his willing ness to take chance at ducking bull lets. He was bundled off to a French military school at St. Cyr. and the 1914 class to which he belonged was called out at the end of September The gov ernnnent officials didn't propose that Carpenter be made a target Rather they wanted him to be held up as a model for. the French people. Car pentier represents new generation, land France was so proud of him that long before the war they were making boxing compulsory feature in the public schools, the army and the navy. They needed Carpenter to boost the thing along.

High speed very often defeats it's own object because so much time is taken out to replace tires which are used up by the friction.
