Down in Australia boxing is being
adopted in all of the schools as a part
of the education Of every boy. 1t has
its place on the curriculum in the state
schools Of Victoria now. Sir Alexander
Peacock, minister for education,
brought this about after consultations
with J. Murray and II. L. Baker, the
boxing promoter and all around ath-
lete.
In the Melbourne High school twenty
boys have been selected to receive in
struction in boxing. After completing
their urse they will act as instructors
for the others.
The first lessons will be given by MI.
Baker. who is n remarkably skillful
boxer himself. winner Of many anna
teur championships. When Mr.. Baker
is through the boys will be under the
care Of Angelo Marie. manager of the
Melbourne stadium. a famous fighting
club on the Baker circuit. Mr.. Marie
was a famous all around athlete and
boxed in many amateur tournaments
in this country as we'll as in Australia.

impossible to arrange clearly some

Who Have Been Directing
the Affairs Of Germany In the
Most Trying Period Of Its Ca
reer Mostly Leaders Of Long
Experience In Diplomatic and
Military Circles - Kings and
Princes Are Among the En-
peror's Advisors.

TATHEN the history Of Germany
A is written in the future the
men on whom the kaiser
leaned during the greatest
war of all times will be given their
proper places in its pages.
This group Of advisers has by no
means been thought little Of by any
of the countries opposed to Germany
in the distrustful struggle abroad, nor
are the Germans themselves wanting
in appreciation of this formidable ar
ray of the best minds which their coun-
try has to offer.
Emperor William himself, Of course,
exercises supreme command over the
German army in wartimes. In times
of peace the rulers of Bavaria, of Sax
ony and of some of til larger states of
the German Confederation retain the
more or less theoretical control of their
respective armies. But the moment
that the empire is involved in wal the
supreme and sole command Of them mil
itary forces Of all the German states
is vested by the terms of the constitu-
ton in the kaiser.
AS he possesses no war experience Of
his own, he avails himself of the adj
vice of some of the older Of the Ger
man soyereigns who have smelled pow
der on the battlefield instead of in
sham fights, among them being King
Louis Of Bavaria, who still limps from
the effect Of a Prussian bullet received
In the war of 1866, and King William
of Wurttemberg, and Duke Bernard of
Saxe-Meiningen. The latter W. wear
On their breast the Iron Cross, bestow-
ed upon them for feats of %conspic,l-
Gus gallantry under fire as young cav
airy officers in the Franco-German war
of 1870.
But it is the men III the war cabinet
who are the real figures back of the
kaiser.
The Fifth Chancellor.
Imperial Germany has had five chan
cellors. Bismarck, the incompatible,
was a statesman; Caprivi and Hohen-
lobe, respectively, soldier and courtier;
Buelow was a diplomat; Bethmann-

Umpire HeIds the Runner.

Umpire Helds h Runner
When working as II field umpire Mr..
Johnson is pulling a novel trick. doubt
less unthinkable. which seems strictly
illegal and yet apparently has no pro-
hibition in the rules. When a long hit
is made and Mr.. Johnson. as is the GUS
tom, accompanies the runner around
the bases, he stops. spreads his hands
and gives the safe" signal ut the base
where the runner should end his stride.
The umpire thus acts as coach and
protector to the base runner, and no
runner thus directed can overslide, go
too far or be headed off. Doubtless the
habit is purely mechanical. and Mr..
Johnson escorts the runners impartial
ly for both sides, but should it not be
unlawful for an umpire to guide. direct
and protect the sprinters?

turnity. His nephew is renowned for
the rarity Of his smiles, while such a
thing as laughter is entirely foreign to
his character.
He always has an appearance Of pro-
found gloom and even of downright
misery impressed upon his fat coun
tenance. To such an extent is this the
case that the kaiser always speaks of
him as der traurige julius (the
gloomy julius.
Won Falkenhayn comes from one of
the oldest noble families in the en-
pire, that Of Mark Brandenburg. He
was born in 1861. In 1880 he was a
lieutenant at the War academy. He
became a member of the general staff
n acted as military instructor Of
China during the Chinese-Japanese
war and later was major Of the gen
eral staff Of the army Of occupation in
east Asia. Last year he was appoint
ed to his present post and has proved
one Of the kaiser's most capable ad-
yisers.

lions share Of credit for the persistent
aggreSsiveneSS with which the father
land rushed to front rank as a sea
power. He is the real creator Of the
kaiSer's fleet.
He was born in 1919 at Custrin, the
son OF an eminent jurist, and became a
naval cadet in 1860 and studied at the
Naval academy, ls14-G. He suisse
quently devoted much attention to the
torpedo branch of the service and is
responsible for modern German tor
pedo organization and the tactical use
of torpedoes. He was inspector Of tor
pedo service and later became chief Of
staff of the naval station in the Baltic.
In 1881 he was promoted to the rank
OF rear admiral and became vice adj
mlral in 1899. He is secretary of state
OF the imperial navy office and Is also
4 minister of state. He is the author Of
