 SON IN THE BRITISH ARMY

Rudyard Kip1ing will begin his fif- tieth year to-day, as he was born in Bombay on Dec. 30, 1865. The au- thor of tsBarrack-Room Ballads, the favorite poetry of the Tonmies as well as of thousands of others who follow more peaceful pursuits, has not only stirred the patriotism of his countrymen by 8 poetica1 call to arms, but has contributed a son to. the arr my John Kiphng, the only son of the famous bard, entered the service last September as a second lieutenant in the Irish Guards. He. is part American, as Mrs. K1pling, who was Caroline Starr BaIestier before her marriage to the British poet in 1892, was born in Vermont.
 The poet has been one of the most eloquent of Lord Kitchener,s sup porters in the crusade for recruits. In one of his public addresses, MT. Kip ling. described the foe as t'organized barbarians,'" and asserted that Ger many's purpose was to conquer the civilized world. 'It is not conceiv- able that we should faiI," said the poet, "but if we do the lights of freedom go out over the whole world.'' Calling upon his auditors to entertain no illusions, he added: We are dealing with a strong and mag nifcentIy equipped enemy whose avowed aim is our complete destruc- tion."
 s.The violation of Belgium con tinued MT. Kip1ng, ''the attack on France and the defence against Rus sia are only steps by the way The real objective of Germany, as she has always told. us, is England, and EngIand's wealth, trade and world wide possessions. If you assume that tf4s attack will be successful, England will not be reduced, as some say, to the position of a second-rate power but We.sha1l cease to exist as a, nation We shall become an outlying province of Germany to be administered with what severity German safety and in terest require And the lights of freedom will go out the world over They may Elammer for a. little in the

 IN FAST BOUT

New York, Dec. sO-Joe shugrus of Jersey City defeated Charley White of Chicago in a. fast and ex- citing ten-round bout in Madison Square Garden last night. Shugrue hit White at least eight times to Whites two blows during the milling But despite the shower of blows White was on his feet at the last bell, fighting fast
 White had a. clear advantage in the eighth and tenth rounds and di- vided the. honors in the first and second sessions All the other chap teTs were. in Sha1grue.s favor. At the Windup neither lad showed any great marks of the fast milling, " htte's lips being slightly cut and shuerue's lips puffed. and his nose slightly dam aged
 Time and<asain the lads fought toe to, toe and the punches feH like hail to the face and body At close quar- ters White was the better and he hit .Shugrue many times in the Dit of the stomach with piIe-drfv1rieg rights and lefts, which carried great force behind them. These Lunches would have stopped any other beye eex- cept the fighting Jerseynans;
 Both were under the 138 pounds ats6 o'clock, when they were first weighed At 9:46 they were rewefgh- ed and White tipped the beam at 1S0 1-4 pounds; Shdgrue 138 IA. Both received 8 rousing reception when they entered the ring shu- grue'se friends from Jersey City were out in full force and gave him three cheers with a, college yell as the wind up- Shugrue looked stouter and stronger than White, who looked thin and drawn in comparison to. his op- ponent.
 Freddy Welsh. the lightweight champion. it was announced. has been matched to meet the winner of the Shugrue-White bout at Madf- son Square Garden on Jan. 13.s
 It was Whites Fabian policy that lost him the match Early in the mill he impressed every one with a latent power and experts wondered why the Western lad did not cut loose and go on the aggressive in- stead of calmly and coolly standina off and awaiting Shugrue's r1lshe es. Charlie failed to beat Joe to the punch in those rushes, but whenever the pair mixed it in rallies, ana White really unmasked his batteries. there were clear indications of the Chicagoan's superiority.
 With the exception of the fourth round which was so even that E vyoII1F have taken Solon to have pointed out any advantage won by either boxer, Shugrue outfought the Chi caSoan for seven rounds. During tlkose first seven sessions shuarT7e always was the aggressor, with White gliding coolIy around the ring ana depending on his counters on inc re- treat.

As they say in the war news we beg to report that our troops made a flanking movement around Gen. Joe Jeannettefs Uh1ans last night at Col game by 35 to 27. The Blue Ribbons had to retire to their trenches several times under the heavy fire of the enc my but they trained machine guns on the foe and fired so many shots into the Jeannette ranks that victory was made certain in the last half. @
 I Jeannette may not De the best 5bask- etbau player in the world but he is surrounded by good men. His four white companions were speedy and displayed enough skill to keep the Ribbons hustling every minute. They were ahead of the locals on several occasions and 1t was not until the last few minutes that. the game was clinched-
 Jeannette is heavy and very slow on his feet.4 In spite of his reputation as a boxer he proved very good r1a- tured even when Roxey Roach slam med into him a few times Joe stay ed around the basket most of the time and managed to toss three goals.
 Bobby Stow returned to the Ribbon fold because the Yale team is taking 8 rest during the Christmas vacation andsshe could get away from his coaching duties. Stow was in fine f0rm..s He played; until the latter part Of the second half when Reich re- teved him.

DECLARES MAGEE
 CAN'T PLAY WITH BRO0KL- -YN 0UTL- AVIS

New York, Dec. 8 -Accordines to a prominent official conn ected with a club in organized ball the Brooklyn Federa1s may as well proceed now to the task of securing a. new manager for the team. This official declares lion Of Lee Magee being able to play with any other club than the Card1- nals if, the Brittons care to make a flight. And. a.p parently, that is, Just Waat the Brittons plan to do.
 They have given up hope of per 5suadfng Nasee that he should return to the Cardinals and now the legal programme has been all prepared Magees who has attained more prom Inence than her recent jumpers be cause he has been chosen to manage one of the Federal League clubs, will be the defendant in one of the early cases brought against the jumpers. It is quite likely that he will be the first player against whom action will be taken.
 ssMagee worked under one Of the new form contracts at St. LouiS,'' said the club official, land there is not a chance of him dodgfng the claim which the St. Louis club has on his services for the coming season He can be restrained from playing with any other club and he most certainly will be restrained. I do not say that the Cardinals can force him to- play with them, but they can prevent him from playing elsewhere.
 The best legal talent has passed on the validity of the St. Louis clubs claims and the Broo4kfedsf owners bet ter sget another: manager or appoint Artie Hofman leader pro tenn, just as he was on several occasions during the Bradley regime last summer Magee is as much out Of the Federal League as far as actual playing is conceaned, as he had never signed a contract.
 Other players are in the same fix. The Feds evidently figured that they could grab players this year Just as they did last year when the oId re- serve clause was in force Because of the fact that this clause lacked the binding force necessary in law the two major leagues did away with the re- serve and stituted the option clause which will hold in law any where. .,.T essss
 It would have prevented Walter Johnson from playing with the Feds if he had tried to play. It will pre- vent Ray Caldwell from playing with Buffalo and it will affect other play CTS who jump ped4recent1y. If the Feds have guaranteed these players large salaries sregar Hess of what happens it is possible that they win have to pay them and get nothing in return, as they did last year in the case of Mar sans.

DON'T CUSS THE BALL,
 HINTS TAFT, GOLFER

New Haven, Conn, Dec 90-Former President Taft yesterday, in letter to another Yale professor, discussed profanity in connection with golf Though an ardent golfer, Prof. Taft is not ambitious to become an expert in the vocal branch of the game.
 I think golf is one of the greatest games for the promotion of the health. of men of over. forty-f1ve thatI know of" he wrote. ''It is an admirable form of exercise. it is consistent with social enjoyment; 1t trains one in self restraint; it introduces one to nature in it's most attractive form, and it has no bad results, except that in the outset it may tempt to profanity. , This, however, is of short duration with man of any sense, because he finds that the less he resorts to pro. fanity- and @impatience the better his score .''

 OF YANKEES IS COMPLETED

 None of the principals to the trans action would discuss the matter and President Johnson gave orders that no one should ydisturb his rest when at tempts were made to reach him at his hotel
 It was fpinted yesterday among base- ball men that one of the leading ob- Fstacles in the negotiations was Far sren ns- inability to give Ruppert' and Huston 8 guarantee that he could de- liver a ball team
 If Farrell could promise to deliyers this club as it finished last season, nucleus of a pretty good club, but can he do SO? So far only Sweeney, Ma1s- Eel,g Boone and Warhep are known Ato be under contract
 The E,ederals are working hard on, Roger Peckinpaugh, the crack short stop Of the club, and they also have made a dattering offer to Marty Me- Hale. Fisher, who next to CalG1wel1s is the best pitcher on the Yankee staff almost jumped during the last cam paign, when the Feds trained. their Caldwell and Schulz have already jumped.
 Nunannaker' also had a Federal league offer last season, and, as Iu-. ther Cook. who threatens to develop Into a crack hitter, iss unsigned it would not be unreasonable to Imagine that the Feds are going after him.
