GAINED FAME AS PUGILIST
John Broughton, English Fighter, Only
Man Credited With Having Won
Two Priced Distinctions.

John Broughton, alone among Eng
lish professional pugilists, can claim
the double distinction of an Abbey fu-
neral and having had dedicated to him
a poem by the poet laureate. 1t was
in 1744 that Paul Whitehead published
his 'Gymnasia," or Boxing Match
which he inscribed, ITO the most puts
SAINT and inyincible Mr.. John Brough-
ton." AS early as 1870 Broughton had
achieved athletic distinction as the
winner of Doggett's Coat and Badge.
The science of boxing owes much to
Broughton. HE promulgated a code
for the guidance of the combatants and
the satisfaction of the Judges writes
Mr.. Guy NickaIls. His new rules were
agreed upon by pugilists and approved
of by the gentlemen on August Is, 1743
and lasted in perfect integrity until
1888, period of nearly 100 years. He
introduced science and humanity into
what was up till then a barbarous
sport, by not only inyenting defensive
guards, but also preventing a man
being hit when he was down. He also
introduced gloves or muff1ers for con
Quoting mock combats or sparring
matches" Broughton's patron was
the duke of Cumberland, who made him
a yeoman of the guard.

MARRIAGE NOT THE WAY OUT
Working Girl May Find Her Lot
Harder Than Ever When She
Enters WedIock.

One of the most serious obstacles
to woman's advancement in Industrial
life is the general feeling on the part
necessary to work for any great
length of time, because the Knight
will soon be coming along, when she
will have home of her own, declares
Detroit Journal.
"What's the use?" many a woman
has said when it was suggested to her
that she give more thought to her
task. 1.-THE work is only temporary
so what is the use of bothering ones
brain with thinking out details?"
The exaggerated expectations of
girls as to the Improvement of their
lot when married in the matter Of
work Is something wonderful. Society
helps to accentuate this belief by
society frownihg on woman workers
and insisting that they go to house
keeping and get out of the industrial
grind.
Now woman in 'the lower walks
of life," as one puts 1t, which means
woman who is one of family with
an income less than will support all
the members on the wages of the
father, cannot escape work by getting
married.
With married life on small income
the necessity of work Is more pressing
than when single. For married life
presupposes more than one stomach to
be fed or one back to be clothed. In
due time. ordinarily, there will be
three, four cor FIVE mouths to be fed
and backs to be clothed. Work? Most
women know little about work until
they are married.
So married life is not an escape
from work. The woman who does not
| become "helpmeet," instead of being
I, simply a "help eat" has missed her
| calling in getting married, just as she
missed her calling when employed in
store or factory or Office in not becom
| ing efficient.

HARD LIFE OF FIRENlEN
CITED in WAGE DEMAND
Posters Further Campaign for
Higher Pay and Better
Conditions

The campaign of the city fremen for more
pay, better working conditions and shorter
hours received a picturesque but practical
touch today when thousands of circulars
were posted and distributed throughout the
city, describing briefly and forcbly just
what the hremen want and why they
want IT,
fn larke red letters the circular points
out that the firemen work twenty-one out
OF every twenty-four hours that they are
allowed but three hours a day to get their
meals and visit their families that they
get but every sixth day of duty: that
they sleep with their clothes on prepared
to answer every call of fire: that every
fireman In the city is aroused from his
sleep every time an alarm is struck, and
that they sleep at the firehouse for five
consecutive nights before they have a
night at home with their families.
The circular explains that II will cost
the taxpayers less than two cents on every
800 TO give the fremen what they desire
and that the city will have 100 per cent
better protection when 1t grants their re-
quest.
Citizens are asked to get in touch with
their Councilmen In order to sec that the
measure passes Councils.
