with nitroglycerine blew up in mid
ocean while on its way from Europe
to Chile, and the governments were
on the point of forbiddins its use. 1t

Carpenter, who is in Paris on a

he was not thinking at present about
boxing, but his pugilistic business
was always in the hands of Des-
camps, his teacher from the age of
IA and his manager during all his
boxing career.
Flying, he added, had in no way

they receive sometimes varies little

popularity of the elector himself.
Some plan should be devised by
which the voters can vote directly for
the president.
Another reform for which 1t seems
to me we are now ready is a change
in the constitution making it more
easily amendable. 1t is now neces-
sary to have concurrence of two
thirds of both houses and three
fourths of the states to secure an
amendment That is an unfair bur

element of the country. | venture to
suggest that the rule of the people
would be made more secure by a
constitutional amendment permitting
