BATHTUBS PART
OF CIVILIZATION
DR.. Dixon Makes Some Inter
eSting Comments on the
Use of Cold Water

Civilization and the bathtub have
gone hand in hand from early days
declares DR.. Samuel G. Dixon, Penn
sylvania State Health Commissioner
in an article issued to-day urging pre-
paredness for health by proper bath
ing. The discussion of the subject is
in the commissioners usual interesting
style and he remarks that when Adam
first fell into the water the human
race began its progress.
DIR. Dixon says that bathing has
been one of the prime requisites to
health and a great promoter of self
respect from the early days and he
urges that people take means to keep
themselves in good condition, ready
for the demands of daily work and the
strain of emergencies.
The commissioner says: "Authori-
ties may vary in discussing the merits
of the hot bath, the tepid bath and the
cold bath, but they all agree in the
abstract that bathing is necessity to
good health and prime promoter of

FINAL WARNING
TODUCK HUNTERS
Heavy Penalties For Shooting
During Spring Season; Keep
Close Watch

Warning has been given local duck
hunters that they must not kill ducks
during the Spring season. Notwith-
standing this fact. it is reported, that
number of hunters are out almost
daily on the river after ducks. An
opinion prevails that the United
States government has no jurisdiction
over State game laws. and that the
suits now awaiting a decision In the
United States Supreme Court will be
so decided. In last weeks Issue OF
the American Field, the Department
of Agriculture at Washington, D. c.,
serves the following notice on duck
hunters:
80 persistent have been the rumors
that the migratory bird law, passed
by the last Congress, will not be in
full force and effect until the Supreme
Court of the United States decides a
test case as to it's constitutionality
that the Department of Agriculture
has been compelled to reiterate its
warning issued last Fall that the law
will be enforced to the limit pending
the decision.
Hunters of ducks, geese and other
migratory game birds, particularly in
the Mississippi Valley, seem not to
have understood the original order
lHe lSSu6u ldSl It dliF anu
their protests have made its reitera-
tion necessary at this tins.
Under the federal regulations as
they now stand, the season on all
migratory wildfowl is closed until next
autumn throughout the United States.
Federal inspectors and wardens are
required and others interested in the
protection of wildfowl are requested,
tc report to the Department of Agri-
culture all cases of violations of the
regulations. in order that proper ac-
ton may be taken"

begun this morning at the Technical
high school, when the chapel exercise
was changed from the first exercise in
the morning until the last before noon.
The first period of the morning will
begin at o'clock and will continue
for forty minutes, as will the second
and third periods. The fourth and
final period of the morning will be OF
thirty-five minutes duration. A five
minute intermission will be given the
pupils ito prepare for the noon recess
and assemble in the auditorium.
Chapel exercises will be ten minutes
in duration and then the students will
be dismissed for lunch The inno-
walton is experimental, but should II
prove more satisfactory than the pres
ent plan, 1t will become permanent.

TICKET SALES TO
BREAK RECORDS
Largest in Ring History Except
That at Reno Six
Years Ago

New York. March 14.-With two
weeks intervening before the princi-
pals enter the ring the Willard Moran
bout has already broken all financial
records for pugilistic battles held in
New York State The actual receipts
for tickets sold and paid for to date
is in round figures $4,000. In addi-
ton 10 this sum tickets valued at $780,
600 arc being held for persons who
have not as yet taken up their reserva-
tions. OF the $125,0OO, worth of tick
cts originally printed but 100000 re-
main unsold and the majority of these
are the three and five-dollar seats
which will not be put on sale until a
day or two before the bout.
The heaviest sale has been made in
the twenty-five dollar reserved and
box seats although there is a big de-
mand for the ten and fifteen-dog
coupons. Notwithstanding the care
exercised by tho promoters a consider
able number of tickets are finding
their way into the hands of specula-
tors and the indications point to these
gentry reaping a royal harvest since
one box has already been sold for
5000, which is several times the face
value of the pasteboards.
Out-of-town Demand
The demand for seats from out-of-
town is the most surprising feature o1
the advance sale. Fully 4O per cent.
of the tickets disposed of to date have
been taken by mail and telegraph ap-
plications from the large cities of the
Middle West, South and New England.
Chicago, Pittsburgh, Boston, Cleveland
and Detroit put in large applications
with scattering requests as far west
as Kansas City.
This advance sale clearly indicates
that the receipts for the ten-round no
decision bout scheduled for March 20
will surpass by more than $4,000 the
largest gate ever collected for such q
contest in New York State and with
the exception of the Johnson j eftries
battle at Reno, New, July 4, 1910, the
largest in the history of the prize
ring. The gross receipts of this Dou'
were $270,755. Jeffries and Sharkey
drew $4,000, when they fought al
Coney Island in 1899; Gibbons and
Mcfarland boxed before a S6S,O69
gate when they met at Brighton Beach
last September and the Corbett-Mc-
Coy contest in New York City on Au-
gust 80, 1900, drew s56,S50. The
Cans Nelson; Johnson Burns and
Johnson Willard bouts held respec-
lively at Goldfelds, Sydney and Hav-
ana brought out gates that ranged be-
tween 100000 and $4,000.

clip for the last three weeks and will
practice hard this week in order to
keep their stride. The Central boys

Millionaire Brothers
Are Stars With Cue

Top, Edgar Appleby; bottom. Fran
els S. Appleby.
New York. March 14.-Francis S.
Appleby and his brother Edgar, the
real attraction in the class A amateur
| billiard tournament at the Arion Club,
are heirs to S50,O00,O00 left by their
grandfather and uncle.
These brothers, students at Column
bia, first attracted attention in the
competition for the class b billiard
title about six weeks ago. Francis
won the trophy from his brother.
Francis is not yet 21 years old. Ed
gar is nearing his twenty-second birth
day. But the experts who have
watched the younger member of the
family play predict a great future in
billiards because of his GOODNESS and
nerve in close matches.
In the class A tournament the APP
plebys competed against veterans who
have been playing for titles twenty
years-men old enough to be their
granddaddy.
Edgar appears to be the most fin
ished player. but can't stand the strain
of ong-drawn-out match as well as
his brother. The latter knows the
game thoroughly, and when he ac-
quires the keen judgment of speed
he'll be formidable enough for some of
the veteran stars.
Their fondness for the game was
kindled by watching their father, Ed
gar It. Appleby. play He became pro-
ficient. through practice with Maurice
Daily, when the latter was preparing
for big matches. A billiard table was
placed in the Appleby home about
eight years ago. The boys used to
watch their father nurse the worries
and in that way became interested.
One day when the elder Appleby was
absent on business the boys played a
game. That was about seven years
ago, and they continued to play, i'm
proving wonderfully under the instruc-
ton of their father.
The boys showed such a fondness
for the game that they began to neglect
their studies. This caused Mr.. Appleby
to rise in his wrath and he threatened
to stop them from playing if they
ignored their studies.
The boys promised to give more at
tention to studies If he would not pre-
vent them from playing. But despite
their promise they kept on playing bill
liards and gave less time to study
When Mr.. Appleby saw that his ad-
monition was futile he threw up his
hands and told them to bang the
worries as hard as they pleased.
After the boys had their own way
about the matter they came to the
conclusion that they were making a
grave mistake. Now they are good
students at Columbia University and
working like beavers to graduate.

JACKSON WARNS
AGAINST FIRES
Commissioner Gives Some Ad-
vice Drawn From Study
of Blazes in State

Fire drills should be held irregu-
larly and at least once a month and 1t

know whether a fire drill is for prac-
tice or escape as we'll as that they
should is notice given by the State
Department of Labor and Industry in
a bulletin issued for owners and man.
ayers of institutions and industrial es-
Establishments.
The notice summarizes the OBJ
servauon of practically all of the big
fires In the country in the last five
years. together with ideas given by in
spectors from study of reports of fires,
inspections of buildings and special
Investigations. In addition to calling
attention to the cardinal principle that
the time to fight fire is when il is
started and that the first few minutes
are vital. the notice declares there
should be two ways of escape from
every workroom in a factory.
DIR. John Price Jackson, State Com
missioner of Labor and Industry, adds
to the warnings that means of escape
should be adequate and wide enough,
whether doors. fire escapes or other
means. and that locked doors or doors
that open inward should be elimi-
mated.
The time to put out fire is when
it begins. Fire eXtinguishers should
be plentifully supplied and promi-
nently located; there should be a proper
fire alarm signal" says he. 'Occu-
pants of an upper floor cannot hear
or know of fire occurring on lower
floor unless there is a proper signal.
A delay until they smell smoke will
no doubt mean smoke-filled exits.
Coroners' juries and other official in

sible for loss from fire.

was in operation.

about ways to improve fire conditions

self-respect. The removal from the
skin of the accumulation of refuse
matter is the primary reason for the
bath.
1T is essential to good health that
the skin be kept in proper condition,
as 1t automatically regulates the heat
of the body, permitting it to cool off
when it becomes too warm and keep
ing in heat when it becomes too cold.
1t assists the lungs and kidneys. When
not too heavily clothed it respires and
helps the lungs.
"A bath should not be taken too
near meal time. There is a normal
attraction of the blood toward the
stomach after eating; any interference
with this and the attraction of the
blood toward the surface of the body
is apt 20 arrest digestion.
Warm baths have a soothing effect
and are often prescribed for nervous
ness. The tepid bath can do no harm.
Cold baths are stimulating, but are apt
TO be injurious if the heart action is
not strong enough to permit of a ready
reaction. To some individuals the
shock to the nervous system is so great
that they cannot accustom themselves
to cold baths"

JUNIORS WINNER
IN CLASS SERIES
Walk All Over Sophs in Yes
terday's Game; Break Tie
Up For Lead

Trimming the Sophomores by a
score of 81 to &c in the Tech gymna-
sium yesterday afternoon, the Juniors
broke the tie for first place in the
interclass series. and at the same time
practically clinched the series. The
best any of the other teams can do
is to tie the Juniors.
Only one game remains for the
leaders, and that with the Seniors.
The latter team has not won a contest
this season.
The one big star yesterday was
Hank" Mcfarland. who Gagged II
goals from field. This player, were
he eligible, would make a star for
Coach McConnell's varsity FIVE.
The league winner will be deter
mined Friday in the school gymna-
sium when the Juniors will play their
final game with the Seniors.
y victory for Juniors would clinch
chances, while a defeat would enable
either the Sophs or Freshies to cause
tie. This is not likely to happen.
Two postponed games, one between the
first and second year boys, and the
other between the Freshmen and
Seniors, will be played next week. The
schedule as originally planned closes
