 |, Some men have become professional boxers by design; others by accident And the late Charlie Mitchell ranking as perhaps the greatest English pugi- list of all time belonged to the later class.
 Mitchelrs parents were English aris- tocrats-and wealthy. They had am bitions for Charlie to become surgeon All through his early years he was educated with that aim in mind. After he had concluded his boyhood schooling he was sent away to college to be- gin his final studies that were to make him bring true the deams of his parents.
 At that time practically Sall of the select English schools included a course lof athletic training in their curriculum Boxing was among the sportive studies in fact. it was the most popular oi them all. Mitchell developed a great fondness for boxing and in few briei months developed from novice into perhaps the best collegiate boxer in al England-and that despite the fact that he weighed we'll below 150 and was on- fly of medium height.
 Mitchell was a natural boxer Blessed with a splendid physique, and nimblt brain and the quickness of panther it didn't take him long to learn tho tricks of boxing from his teacher-and then to add to the store number ol tricks of his own creation.
 But Mitchell even then had nc thought of becoming~a professsiona ringman despite the urging of his col legiate admirers. The words of his parents had become his law-ant Mitchell meant to go along with hi: studies and become a doctor. But fate intervened-and Charlie Mitchell be, came one of the most conspicuous box ters instead.
 Late in the autumpn of 1879 wheI Mitchell was just hordepfng on his 1stf birthday. the school was given briel vacation. Mitchell planned to go tC his home and spend the recess there But as he was going to buy his rail road ticket his pocket was picked, hi: wallet stollen-and Charlie was broke Mitchell didn't want to write or wire home for money because only a few days before hisV parents had sent z

goodly sum to him Charlie, as hoy'
 was rather careless with his money and
 made frequent calls for funds. He reas-
 oned that if he wired for money, ex-
 blaming that his pocket had been
 picked it would sound like new alibi.
 While Mitchell was racking his brain
 for ways and means to secure the money, he heard that an "all-eomers Tboxing tournament was being staged in Wolverhampton A prize of f25 offer was the lure that took Mitchell to Over hampton which, fortunately, was only a short distance from where he was ''marooned' with a few pieces of sil- yer in his pocket
 Mitchell presented himself to those who were conducting the tournament. .I'll fight this Smithers," he said. The promoters readily agreed to pit Mitchell against Smithers. Charlie was inferior to Smithers in size. But that gladdened the promoters. They fig ured Charlie' would be easy for smith CTS and they were anxious to have Smfthers roll up as lengthy knock out record as possible. The more foes Smithers disposed of the greater draw | ing card he would be.
 But the diminutive Mitchell spent just IT minutes rearranging the facial map of Smithers and then, satisfied with this task, sent Smithers down and ! out for the count
 Mitchell appeared in that bout-a bare knuckle contest under an as- sumed name, but his feat in whipping Snithers excited the newspaper men. They wanted to know all about him. Charlie evaded disclosing his identity and just he felt he could make a get away with the f25 and be undiscoy- cred. Fae was recognized by one of the fellows who knew him in his earlier boyheod.
 And then the cat was out of the sack" declared Charlie, telling of the i incident later. Those boys wrote stories about me and, of course, they got back home. That ended my collegi- ate career-and I was glad of it. l never had wanted to be doctor any way. It didn't take me long to decide what my life's profession was going to 1 be. 1 had come to love the boxing game.T My success against Smithers had convinced me that I was a fairly
 good fighter. And just in that era some sizeable purses for good matches were being offered

 Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin, another republican supporter, said that demo- crats who opposed the resolution must be considered as Not believing the Presi- dents statement that the resolution is a war measure.

 'The junior senator from Georgia suf- fered the same fate"
 Then turning to the democrats who had been counted among the opposition, Sem ator Cummips shouted

ATTENTION TO COLTS FEET
untrimmed Hoofs Usually Grow Long
and Uneven and Crooked Foot or
Leg Is the Result.

The care of a horses feet should
commence when he is colt, that is,
before he is weaned. Untrimmed hOOfs
usually grow long and uneven, and a
crooked foot, or worse, crooked leg
is the result. Failure to regulate the
length and bearing of the foot may
make a straight leg crooked or u
crooked leg worse, while intelligent
care during the growing period can
gradually improve leg that is crooked
at birth.
When picking up colts foot teach
him to stand on three legs and not
depend on the one holding up his foot
for the fourth point of support. The
handling of a colts foot begins with
the near front foot. Tie a rope around
the pastern, grasp the rope close to
the foot, push gently against the Shout
der, and quickly lift the foot. The lift
ing of the foot must be simultaneous
with the weight shifting to the other
feet. Gentle the foot and leg and let
1t down. Repeat several times and
then trim and level the hoOf.
