CAN'T GET ALONG TOGETHER
Women Won't Work for Women When They Can Help It, Always Pre-
 ferrinq Men Bosses.

A "mere man," writing in Woman's Home Companion, makes this com ment on women in business.
 Another reason I have noted why women don't appropriate the big jobs is that most members of their own sex-to say nothing of the members of ours-would rather work for a man than a woman. The most successful woman I know is the head of big department in very big business. She knows that her feminine instinct is worth thousands to that business. Yet she is glad that the president of the business is man; she wouldn't take the presidents job if she could get it; and no matter how much she believes in her own instinct, she recognizes that there is an element of judgment in the man that, working with her in- stinct, produces a perfect combination.
 T hired stenographer once, for in- stance, and assigned her to a woman. At noon of the first day she went out to lunch and did not come back. found laconic note on her desk. It read: I won't take dictation from a woman.' Any man or any woman in business can give similar testimony. Women would rather work for men than work for women"

McCOOLE-ALLEN BATTLE FOR
 THE WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIP

Mike McCoole defeated Tom Allen in nine rounds, on foul, near St. Louis, on June 15 1869, just forty nine years ago today This battle was declared to be for the world s championship, but, with Jem Mace on the job as English champion, such claim was not entirely well found ed
 . McCoole first claimed the Ameri- can title after John c. Heenan's re- tirement in 1863, but he was whipped by Joe Coburn in sixty-three rounds a. Charleston, Md. Three years later McCoo1e beat Bill Davis, the Califor- nian, at Rhodes Point, Mo, and be- came champion. Tom Allen, St. Louis fighter after defeating a num- Der of good men, including Bill Davis in forty-three rounds at St. Louis, challenged McCoole. The Missourian outfought McCoole all the way, ac- cording to contemporary accounts of the affair, but when it became appa- rent that McCoole was beaten the ref cree awarded the victory to the van quished on the score of an alleged foul committed by Allen. Few fight fans accepted the verdict, and Allen was hailed as American champion, and fought for and lost the worlds title in a battle with Jem Mace pulled off in Louisiana the following year.

THE PEPPERY LADS.

Charlie Dexter isn't name that stands for anything to the younger fans, but the old-timers remember snappiest players who ever wore 2 big league uniform. Evers and Heinie Zim and McGraw and lot of others have nothing on Dexter whel. it comes to pugnacity and a hair-trig- ger temperament.
 Dexter was born in Evansville on June IS, 1876, just forty-two years ago today, and it was in 1S96 that he began his big league career with the Louisville Colonels, who were then in the National League circuit.
 Charlie was equally at home behind the bat or in the outfield, and could also play infield positions when he had to. His peppery temperament soon manifested itself and he be- came the bane of the umpires soon after his arrival in the big tent Dex- ter's big league career comprised four years with the Colonels, three seasons with Chicago and two years with Boston. He was still going strong when he quit the game in 1904 in order to enter upon a business career. Dexter came in for lot of knocking because of his bellicose spirit but he had a big following of fans who considered him one of the marvels of the pastime. As a mat ter of fact, the peppery lads have always been popular with a few great exceptions. The fans pretend they don't like 'em, but it is only pre- tense.

TWILIGHT BALL
 AT. LEAGUE PARK
Pastime to Start at 6:30 O'clock and Be Over Long
 Before Darkness.

Springfield June 15-Before the baseball season opened there was considerable controversy among base ball magnates over suggestion that the extra hour of daylight each day be taken advantage of by starting ball games an hour later than usual in order to give larger percentage of the fans an opportunity to see the games Some claimed it would be unpatriotic to take advantage of a wartime measure in such a fashion.
 Others thought not, but. most bow ed to the will of the majority. But since the opening of the season, bring Ing with it problems more difficult to solve than have ever arisen before in the history of organized ball, certain leagues have started games not one hour later, but have started them a. 01oO o'clock, and twilight baseball" came into existence.
 Such measure is now going to be tried out in Springfield, the first city In the Eastern League to take it I'D. So on next Wednesday, the first home game of the week, with the Provi dence Grays furnishing the opposi- ton, the Ponies will swing into ac- ton at 6:S0 o'clock, giving practical ly all day workers who desire to see the game a long-sought opportunity,

STATES TWO FRENCH KINGS
Both Louis XIV and XIV Ruled Over Domain That Included Great
 Western Commonwealth.

There were but two French kings who ever ruled over Missouri, observes the Kansas City Star. The first of these was Louis XIV, for whom La Sale took possession of the Missis. sippi river and of all the country drained by Its tributaries. La Salle named the country Louisiana in honor of his king. For governmental pur- poses the whole of Louisiana was at- tached to new France and Frontenac became the first governor, ruling over the largest domain ever under the sway of one man on this continent. France owned the central part of the continent from the Gulf to the polar seas. Thus Frontenac became the first governor of the region that is now Missouri.
 But it was in the reign of Louis XIV, who succeeded Louis XIV, that Mis- sourf received from France the first yivifying touches of civilization. Un- der this reign the city of St Louis was founded and was named, not in honor of Louis XIV, who was no saint, but in honor of Louis TX, who then had been dead 800 years, and who was the most saintly king France ever had.
 New Orleans was founded, too, dur ing the reign of Louis XIV, and was named for the duke of Orleans, re gent for the young king, who was crowned at five years old.

FIRST BOUT BEFORE ROYALTY.

Continental royalty had it's first in. troduction to pugilism. 104 years ago today, June 15, 1914, when Lord LOW ther invited the Emperor Nicholas of Russia, who was visiting England, to witness a boxing display at his own house in Pail Mall. Some of the best boxers in England were engaged to- display their prowess before the Elm peror, General Butcher of Prussia, General Platoff, and other distinguish ed guests. Several sparring bouts with gloves were staged, and the Elm peror was so delighted that he asked for a repetition of the performance. This was staged a few days later, the spectators including, besides the Czar, King Frederick William IT., and the Prince Royal of Prussia, the Prince of Mecklenburg and several other royal personages. Belcher, Jackson, Cribb, Richmond, Oliver and Painter were among the topnotchers of the British ring who showed off before the dis tinguished company. All were liber- ally applauded, but John Jackson, the most scientific of the boxers of that period, came in for the larger share
 of royal favor.

Aroentine Mest-Paekino Plant.

Some months ago a group of Pata- gonian capitalists sought and obtained a concession from the Argentine gov ernment to establish a packing plant in Rio Grande. in the territory of Tier "a del Fuego, the southermost district of the republic. The plant was to fur nish market for the stock of the sheep and cattle owners of that dis trict, and to stimulate the growth of the industry there. The company or ganized, brought in the necessary ma chinery, and commenced at once on the construction of the plant itself On February 20 operations were begun with the killing of 10000 animals.

RAIN PREVENTS
 TENNIS GAMES Only One Set in New Eng land Doubles Decided at
 Hartford Club.

Once again the rain proved a deter rent to the conduct of the New Eng land tennis tournament on the courts Of the Hartford Golf club yesterday afternoon, with the result that only one match, that a semi-fnal clash in the championship doubles, was fin ished. Two other matches in the championship singles were started, one getting through the first set, and the other part way along, when the rain came and prevented all play for the remainder of the afternoon, wet ting the courts so thoroughly that there was no chance of their drying out before dark.
 The match that was decided was the semi-fnal battle in the championship doubles between James and Wesbbrook against Aiken and Jaynes and the former pair won handily, at 6-2, 6-2. This brings James and West, brook into the final round for the championship doubles and they will meet Wiley and Bundy, the Yale pair, this afternoon at 4 o'clock on the championship court.
 The rain of yesterday upset the p1dIlS O1 JlLO LCIl1l1S SOlllIlllILOS IO cl great extent, with the result that the finals in the championship singles will have to go over until Monday after noon. Today's program calls for the completion of the .semi-f1nals in the singles, and all of the consolation sin gles, including the finals, together with the finals in the championship doubles.
 An attempt was made yesterday aft ernoon to clear up the singles up to the final round, but the effort proved a, failure, in view of the rain. The match in the third round between Lee Wiley and A. H. Chapin, Jr., was started, and went through the first l set, the younger Chapin winning the edge when he took the eet at 6-4. He got off to a good start against Wiley, winning the first four games. but here Wiley took a a brace and on i his own service captured his first game, losing on Chapin's service, and then breaking through and capturing the next three games, bringing the set up to 5-4 in Chapin's favor, the ninth set being a love set for Wiley. Chapin won the set in the tenth game, all his points being earned on place ment shots. The second set was just under way, Chapin leading at 30-15 on the first game when the rain came and stopped the play. This match was resumed this morning where il was left off.
 The semi-fnaI clash in the cham pionship singles betweeen A. H. Cha ,jD cr on5 Walter WestiI,-ool< a1Sc was started yesterday afternoon, only to be halted by the rain. It was a closely contested match, each player winning on his own nerve without change, and the set stood 5-4 in favor of Chapin when the rain came. This match also was renewed this morn ing at the place where the rain stop ped it.

 The only precedent to the Bridge port example in the Eastern league is found in the 1916 annals of the organization. At that time Lowell forfeited a game to Hartford, lost the gate receipts and was fined $1O0. Lowell appealed, but Dan O'Neil, vho was at that time vice-president, in deciding the appeal, upheld the deci- sion of the umpire.
