for the featherweight title 1 had
beaten the best left hand in the bust
ness, but 1 found a better one when
met Mitchell in Cincinnati the other
day." said the champion.
mitchell had his left in my face
all the time There was not much
sting to it when he used it for jab-
bling, but it was a tantalizing thing
and it's going to do Mitchell a lot of
good in his chase for the lightweight
championship.
AtteII had a number of different
ways of using his left and it was al
ways hard to tell what he was going
to do with it. That left hand got him
the championship and allowed him
to keep it II years.
Johnny Dundee has good left.
He makes odd use of is by leaping
into the air and shooting it forward.
"Patsy Kline has a terrific wallop
in his left, and Joe Rivers is not so
bad, but none of them compares with
this Mitchell chap"
Mitchell, according to KiIbane,
makes it almost impossible for an OPP
,ponent to try to ''set" for a punch.
The Milwaukee scrapper keeps
shooting out the left in quick sue
cession, and although there is not
much power back of it sometimes, it
is good enough to keep an opponent
off his feet, and with it Richie is
able, most of the time, to beat his
antagonist to the punch.
There was something of grudge
between Kilbane and Mitchell as a
result of bout several months ago,
and KiIbane went into their recent
match determined to settle all doubt.
of supremacy. He tried harder for a
knockout than in any other battle he

A BEAR AND A CROW.

eff you wish some of your favorite
blackberry pies, Bobby, you must go
to the field and gather berries" said
Mrs. Bear one morning.
A little later Bobby Bear left home,
a new tin pail over his arm and his
mothers old pink sunbonnet on his
head. He looked cautiously about to
see if any one he knew was watching.
Don't you dare take off hat bonnet,
Bobby" warned his mother. 1.-THE day
is very hot, and you might get a sun-
stroke. If that naughty Jimmy Crow
laughs or says anything to you, just
don't pay any attention to him.
Now, although Mrs. Bear did not
know it, Jimmy Crow was perched out
of sight on a nearby tree, and he
heard every word she said.
Before long Bobby was hard at work
among the blackberry bushes.
Unknown to Bobby, Jimmy Crow had
followed him, and his sharp eyes spied
something that Bobby would have
missed. even had he not been hamper
ed by the %sunbonnet. Just ahead of the
little bear boy lay a snake, small but
poisonous. which had been disturbed
by Bobby's presence, and was in a
very nasty temper. Its tail switched
angrily. and the darling fangs were
ready to strike at the first chance.
Look out. Bobby! Look out!' cried
Jimmy; but. mindful of his mothers
words, Bobby paid no attention. Hes
only trying to tease me-" thought
Bobby, and he advanced a step further.
Then he heard a rustic among the dry
leaves and the hiss of the snake. The
little bear boy dropped his pail and
started to run. but the brambles caught
his thick fur and held him prisoner. He

thorns only gripped him the tighter.
The snake was almost upon him
when something flashed from above
like a streak of lightning, disappeared
among the leaves. and next moment
emerged in triumph. 1t was brave
Jimmy Crow, grasping the snake firm
ly back of the neck. close to the head,
so that 1t was powerless to strike.
Jimmy flew to the brook and dropped
the enemy into the deepest pool, then
hurried back to help Bobby.
It was some time before the little
bear boy was untangled, and it took
still longer to fill the upturned pail.
Then the pair started happily for Bob
by's home.
When Mrs. Bear heard the story of
her boys danger and rescue she for
got all about the scolding that was
waiting for Jimmy Crow. Instead, she
insisted that he stay for supper, and
when Jimmy finally said, Good night"
he carried home with him a beautiful
blackberry pie all his own.

BISHOP MAKES PLEA
 FOR THE HOME LIFE
Warns Against RCstlcssness Which Makes People Unwilling to Seek
 Happiness at Family Tircside

Large congregations are attending the mission which is being preached in St Marks Episcopal church by Bishop F.. c. Acheson. The general subject of the sermons is The Par able of the Love of God; commonly called the Parable of the Prodigal Son. The first sermon dwelt on the fatherhood of God, and His yearning love for the sinner, the prodigal in the far country. The theme last night was "In the Far Country" showing how in many ways men turn from God, chafing under restrictions of con- science and asserting a right to "liVe their own life.'' The hearers were warned against the restlessness which makes one unwilling to find happiness in quiet home life, but sends him out to seek excitement in useless and worse then useless diversions. Fail ure to learn to enjoy good reading and home amusements is at the boz tom of the wandering of many a prodigal, and for this the neglect of parents is largely responsible. But the prodiGal is not the only one to go to the far country. The self-satis- l fled, selfish elder brother was in his | soul as truly estranged from the 1 father as the younger. The presi- 1 dent of an atheists club--the man who is responsible for the unbelief of many may be found in the church.
 The childrens mission, which began yesterday afternoon. will be continued this afternoon at 4:3O; tomorrow aft ernoon and Saturday morning at ten o'clock. There will be mission ser mons tonight and Friday at 7:45 and Holy Communion tomorrow at 10 a. m., and Saturday at and 10 a. m.
 There will be a meeting of all candi dates for confirmation this evening at Tl5 in the parish house. precedina the mission service.
