Lightweight Chfm,On;hlp Tiks
 From American in LOideu.

London. July 8.-Freddie weist champion of Great Britain, won thl lightweight championship of thY world in defeating Willie Ritchie. oX San Francisco, holder of the title, frY twenty rounds here last night.
 Welsh won on points, and no uuet tion could be raised of his victory. 1n( ten rounds, at least--perhaps twe1xel he established clear lead. RitchI< lighting with desperate valor in fhe| closing rounds of the battle, won an, advantage in five rounds, while in the remaining periods there was little to choose. s4
 The champion settled down to fight ing only after the eleventh round, and then held his own until the end but Welsh made a cyclonic rally, and j1| the closing round had Ritchie on the defensive.
 It seemed to be the feeling, how- ever, that although defeated, Ritcf1ie was the stronger more rugged fighter, and in a finish bout would win. mi fact, there were those who believ8d that in another five rounds he infk1f have worn Welsh down suff1ciently tn have earned the decision He was stronger than his opponent at fthG finish HfMf
 Welsh Carried on. 8f1T
 When the referee declared weish| the winner a delegation of welshmcl burst into the ring, and, raising the victor on their shoulders, carried him to his dressing room, chanting God of Our Fathers the Welsh hymn.
 The crowd rose to a man and be1- lowed its applause at the new cham pion. Well might the Britons cheer. It was the first time one of their couhI trymen has held the lightweight championship of the world since June 1, 1896, when George Lavigne, the famous Saginaw Kid" defeated Dick Burge, of England. The lightweight championship has descended since then to Frank Erne, Joe Cans, Bat. ting Nelson, Ad Wolgast, Willie Ritchie and now to Freddie Welsh. v

Antics of Volcanoes.

Some curious antics are performed by volcanoes in action. On the island of SaviI, in the Samoan group of the south Pacific, a Assure opened late one day in a cocoa plantation. An eruption took place immediately, devastating the whole island. After an eruption by Mount TaaI in Luzon, Philippine Islands, five lakes, all of different col ors, were left in the crater. Katmai, in Alaska, spread it's volcanic dust around the world in less thania months Mount Pelee thrust a rock plug through its crater nearly 2,O0O feet high in a few days. The plug has since scaled until only the stump is left Bandaisan, in Japan, blew it's own head off and then belched streams of hot mud. When the island of Krakatoa, near sumatra, was destroyed by volcanic schock the report of the explosion was heard 1000 miles away. Cotopaxi, in Mexico, once broke loose so suddenly that the snow on its summit was scattered over the surrounding country as blocks of ice.- Kansas City Times. :

Postal Savings May
 Be Put In U. s. Bonds

If you are a deposftor in the Postal Savings bank you may exchange your money on deposit for U. S. bonds. This information is found in one of the bulletins issued by the Post Office De- paftment. The bonds in denonnina- tions of $40, $1O0. and $500 bear 21z per cent interest and mature in 20 years when they are payable in gold.
 The proposition enables people of small means to show a patriotic spirit by putting their money into the bonds of their country. For many years the complaint was made that people of small means were never given the op- portunity to own government bonds The government does mot have to pay more than 21z per cent. interest be- cause of the strength these bonds have in being backed by the wealth of the entire country.

A True Prodigy.

On June 27, 1725, died Christian Hei- necken- He was only just five, but was already famous. Within a few hours of his birth he could talk and with sense. At ten months he could talk with ease on most subjects; at twelve months he was thoroughly conversant with the Old Testament and in a month made himself equally conversant with the New. Conyersant with things sacred, he turned to things secular and at thirty months could answer any ordi- nary question in geography and his- tory, ancient as well as modern, and when he was taken on a visit to the court of Denmark he conversed in Latin and French: He was then four.
