MAU[|FFE S
IN K. Of c. WORK
BY PAUL PURMAN.

To the younger generation of boz
ing ans the name of Jack McAuhne
means very little.
And It is not strange. as the only
lightweight champion of the world
who retired undefeated hal not been
seen I'm the ring for 26 years, with
the exception of a six-round exhibi-
ton boxed some 22 years ago
In spite of his 81 years McAufffe
has decided he should do something
for his adopted country in this war
and la signed up with h Knights
of Columbus for duty In France.
McAuliffe has changed as much as
the style of fighting has changed since
his day. The former 130-pounder
has put on so pounds or more, but
his broad shoulders and deep chest
still bear witness to his former Prov
ess. when men battled to a knockout
with bare fists for purses cheap pork
and beaners would laugh at today.
McAuliffe's championship career be-
gan in 1885. when he claimed the
title after Jimmie Mitchell, the recog-
nized champion refused to meet him.
Two high spots loom out of McAu-
liffes' record, his 74-round ri with
Jem Carney. the British champion,
and his e4-round draw with Billy
Myer.
1t was In 1887 that sporting men
of New York and New England ar
ranged the meeting between McAuliffe
n Carney at Revere. Mass. The fight
was for $4,000 O side and vas to go to
finish. h men fought bare listed.
y The fight took place in the open air
in a secluded spot, where officers were
not likely to interfere. For "a ounds
the men battled. Toward the end II
looked as though McAuliffe was get
ting the worst of II, and a crowd of
rowdies who had bet large sums on
McAuliffe broke into the ring and
ended the fight. which was called a
draw.
II goes without saying that McAu-
life, always a clean sportsman had
nothing TO do with the affair.
Perhaps the most dramatic incident
In McAuliffe's ring career occurred
at North Judson, Ind, In 1889.
McAulife and Billy Myer were
matched to fight for the championship
and $4,000 a side.
About the fortieth round McAuliffe
broke his arm. but he continued fight
ing until the sixty-fourth. when the
contest was declared a draw. McAu-
life did this to protect his friends,
who had wagered large sums on him.
In 1892 McAuliffe won from Myer
in Is rounds.
The next year year McAuliffe re-
tired undefeated and Kid Lavigne as
sumed the title. although McAuliffe
did not officially annouce his retire.

misunderstanding revelations re-
garding the work Of British mystery
ships which have played an important
part in antisubmarine warfare are
made by the naval correspondent Of
the Times. They show how British
seamen have met German craft and
cunning with British craft and cum
ming.
Until this week the public has known
nothing about the mystery ships.

although several officers, notably Capt.
Gordon Campbell. have been decorated
for their services on these vessels. De-
tails now a be made public, as the
Germans are becoming aware through
bitter experience Of the methods used
against them.

The U-boat came alongside the ves-
sci and the roman hurled the 'baby"

ploded and blew out the bottom of the
submarine. The woman" was deco
rated with the Victoria cross.
The correspondent says that the first
mention of a mystery ship was In the
case Of the Baralong. which on August
10. 1915, sank a U-boat after the tor
pedoing OF the British liner Arabic.
1t will be remembered. he says, that
the German government protested that
there was nothing to indicate the Bara-
longs warllke character. The Bara-
long case was probably not the first
In which a ruse was used. and since
then the Disgusting OF armed vessels as

correspondent. event up In Germany

but the German allegations ~curiously
ceased at the beginning Of 1916. These
allegations afforded a typical example
Of German mentality. for they ignored
the fact that in every case the U-boat
was an actual or potential assailant
and any ruse of war is considered legit-
innate by them except when employed
against Germany"
II should not be forgotten, he con-
tinues. that the Germans designed
mystery ships for commerce destruc-
ton. The British commanders showed
much ingenuity IN devising plans for
trapping submarines.
Haystack Is Floating Fort.
In addition TO the woman and baby
case. the correspondent mentions the
story of a retired admiral. serving as
a captain. who placed a haystack on
board an anclentlooking craft. When
the U-boat ordered her to surrender
the Germans were astonished to re-
ceivs a broadside from the haystack.
On another occasion a sea-worn
tramp steamer was crossing the North
sea whom a submarine ordered the
crew to abandon ship.

SUITABLE HOUSE FOR FOWL S
Most Essential That Hens Be Protect
ed From Indictment Weather.
and Their Enemies.

One of the most essential things in
poultry keeping, is to have a suitable
house which will protect the fowls
from inclement weather and from
their natural enemies. 1t is well I'M
derstOod that no two farms will pre-
sent exactly the same conditions; for
instance, one farmer will desire to
keep one hundred hens while another
may want many more or less. Then
again, some farms will present one
kind of soil, whereas on other farms
the character of the soil and drainage
are entirely different Some farmers
will desire house which presents an
attractive appearance, whereas ON
other farms poultry houses will be so
located that they are not conspicuous,
and hence the matter of appearance is
of little concern.
1t must be remembered that from
the standpoint of the hen, appearance
makes very little difference, but the
house must be so built and so ar
ranged that it will be a comfortable
place for the hens to live; otherwise
they will not thrive and production
will not be satisfactory. On many
farms the hens are not provided with
a house constructed especially for
them but are housed in an old building
originally made for some other pur-
pose.
