BELLS.

Bells have mingled with our lives
since human lives began:
Hear the bells that below in the
weary ears OF man.
The ancients rang the tocsin bell In
sounding wars alarms,
To call the townsman from his trade.
the peasants from the farms:
The steeples for a thousand years
have rung with all their
might:
Wedding bells and fun'ral bells and
vesper bells at night.
The school bell in the morning calls
the scholars all too soon.
The hungry farmer listens for the
dinner bell at noon;
Cow bells and sheep bells disturb his
dreams at night,
And sleigh bells 60 tinkling when
the winters SHOWS are white.
Everything on legs or wheels must
have its bell. you know.
The mice once tried to bell the cat
the fable tells us so.
The guards must ring the bell be-
fore the train can move along;
The street car mustn't bump man
unless II rings the gong.
The droll conductor takes your coin
and then rings up the fare.
Typewriters ring a warning bell. you
break the sentence there.
The bells upon the cash register ring
out the cost of grub.
The telephone rings out call from
MIR. Henry Dubb.
And when the bells have wrecked his
nerves and the man In ruin
lies.
The doctor sends him to the gym for
dumbell exercise!

Of the fact that Senator Sherman al

HOUCK IS FAVOR|TE

Tommy Lowe, However, viii
Have Many Backers in Fif-
teen.Round Match.

Expressions Of opinion voiced throughI
out the city today seemed to indicate
that Willie Houck. the lightweight
scrapper. who meets Tommy Lowe at
the Maryland Athletic and Social Club,
Ardmore. Md. tonight. will go into the
ring a decided favorite.
Houck has had a vast and varied ring
experience. and has defeated some of
the fastest boys in the United States,
and because of the success with which
he has met. he comes here n very pop
ular athlete. particularly in the eyes of
those who have. money to wager on the
affair.
Tommy Lowe. however has not lost
any Of his popularity with the throng
OF Washington fight fans who have
long admired this veteran. He will have
a great many hackers when he goes in
to the ring at Ardmorc tonight, but
Houck will be a decided favor!te
Johnny Cummins meets Young Thorn
as in the semi-windup. and this bout Is
attracting nearly al much attention as
the main affair. Besides these, four
four-round matches make up the pre-
liminary card.
Patsy Day meets Young Dcmmick,
Young Montana takes on Young Mocks,
Abe Wembero tackles Paul Day, and
Young Montana clashes with Joe Black

who have a large following. particularly
In the vicinity Of Center Market,
where there is said to be much blood"
between these boys. Pat O'Connor, the
clubs official referee. will be seen in
the main bout. while Kid Sullivan will
officiate In the preliminaries and semi

Whether another twenty-nine years
will elapse before Norman Taber's rec
ord for the one-mi!e run. made at the
Harvard stadium a week ago. Is eclipsed.
Is a question which has been asked
many times in the last ten days. and
left unanswered Just as often.
Taber's wonderful time Is the fastest
ever recorded. but the fact that the
difference between 1t and the record
made by w. G. George In 1886 Is meas
ured only by three-twentieths Of sec
Ond seems to furnish ample proof that.
after ALL man has a speed limit which
knows little advance through the ages
unless assisted by some mechanical aid.
Apart from training. the only aid
which a man can receive In running
race agaist time Is from the condition
of the path on which he runs. and that
Is something which 1t Is almost humanly
impossible to measure.
Perhaps men in the past have run
mile quite as fast as Taber and George.
but the records which have been hand
ed down date back not quite a century
and half. so that 1t will never be
known Just how fast the Greek runner
in the ages of Pericles and Socrates or
the Roman athlete In the time of Caesar
ran the equivalent Of the English mile
The oldest time on record Is that
made bv F. Powell in ITS in England.
He ran u mile in sos Powell was a
professional athlete. but ones ability to
run Is not dependent on whether he Is

Bowling records Of this and other
important bowling cities show that

something of an innovation. not only
to Washington. but to the game Of
bowls Itself
Eighteen Masonic lodges Of this city

IN England there Is an unofficial
reeord rec that h;, Lang, the great miller of
utes ten and one-half seconds, but that.
OF course. was never authenticated and
does not stand as record. There were
many who contended that Lang was
capable OF such a performance.
OF the records listed all were made
In England with the exception of the
four amateur marks bv Conneff, Jones
and Taber. Conneff was not an Ameri-
can porn. so that the marks Of Jones
and Tabor are the only records by
Americans.
Just how Taber' s wonderful mile COM
pared with the four greatest miles of
history. which are Georges. Connects
Jones' and his own, is shown by this
analysis. which compares the times for
each quarter mile:

time to the three-uuarter mile. why he
failed to make better time for the last
quarter mile Is best explained by the
fact that Cummings, against whom he
was racing. took the lead. and was in
front until within thirty yards of the
finish. when stone on the cinder path
lodged In his spike and threw him of his
stride.
George at the time was five yards
behind and Cummings lost SO much
that George was enabled to regain the
lead and win. II Cummings had been
able to keep his stride. 1t is pure con-
lecture what the time for the mile
would have been. That it probably
would have heen under 4:l2 goes with
out saving
Looking at Taber's marks, 1t is easy
to criticise and remark that better
speed in the second and third quarter
miles would have brought his final
as he had planned. and the fact that
he was able to finish with such a
whirlwind sprint Is ample proof that he
