THE FIRST BELGIUM KING.

The first King of Belgium was Leo pold I, who was born in Coburg 12S years ago today, the fourth of Francis Duke of Saxe-Coburg- -Sallfeld. He was an uncle of Queen Victoria of England. As young man he enter cd the military service of Russia, with the rank of general, and took an active part in the campaigns against Napoleon. In 1916 he married Prin- cess Charlotte of England, and was made a British Field Marshal and Duke of Kendall. Although his wife died soon afterward, he continued to reside in London. In 1880 he was of fered the throne of Greece, ard ac- cepted it in conditions which were nc t compiled with. The following year he was elected King of the Belgiars, after they had thrown off the Dutch yoke. and in 1888 he married the daughter of Louis Philippie of France, who gave him three children. The oldest, Leopold IT., uncle of King Albert, succeeded to the throne on the death of the first Belgian king half a century ago, Leopold was an able sovereign, and displayed great tact in the discharge of his duties as a consti- tutional monarch.

BIRTHDAY OF
 THE AEROPLANE

In view of the marvellous achieve ments in long distance flights in Europe and America, and the various uses to which flying machines have been put in the war as well as in the postal service of the United States it in interesting to recall that tomorrow will mark the fifteenth birthday of the aeroplane. Only 15 years old--and what wonders has it not accomplish ed!
 A couple of young men, who owned a bicycle repair shop in Dayton, Ohio, used their spare time to tinker" on a flying machine. The neighbors considered them crazy, but harmless and perfectly safe to be at large. Finally they hit upon a contraption to which the twin propellers and six horsepower ur-cylinder gasoline motor were attached-a winged affair with movable or elevating rudder in front, which looked like a cross be- tween large eagle and nightmare. This machine they took to Kill Devil sand hills near Kitty Hawk, N. C., and on Dec. IT, 1903. they made four successful flights. on one of which the aeroplane travelled a distance of 852 feet.
 And now aviators go winging their way across half the continent, or fly from London to Paris between lunch and dinner, while others do stunts in the air that at the time, would have made Orville and Wilbur Wright think they were seeing things"

Boston Tea Party" Is
 Attacked by Iconoclasts

Boston's celebrated "tea party" which was held 145 years ago today, Dec. 16, 1773, has within recent years been the subject of attack by iconoc- lasts. Not content with branding as a myth the story of George Washing ton and the cherry tree, and casting reflections on Paul Revere, the fla nous equestrian hero, the idol smashers have sought to prove that the tea party was in fact a beer party. It was not the spirit of patriotism, but the spirits imbibed in John Dug gan's tavern which animated the i'm mortal 62, disguised as Indians, ac- cording to the assertion made by a member of the United States Con- gress a few years ago. This asser- ton naturally aroused much indigna- ton, and a great mass of evidence in rebuttal has been offered.
 According to the defenders of the tea party, John Duggan, the saloon keeper who is said to have supplied the beer which fired the patriotism of the drinkers thereof, was only seven years old at the time of the Boston occurrence, and, moreover, was still in Ireland. MT. Duggan, who later sold liquid refreshments to the thirsty of Bostontown, was born in 1766, and did not come to America until many years after the tea incident. Admitting these facts, the allegations of the iconoclasts, disproved in one import ant particular, fall fiat, unless it can be shown that another John Duggan conducted the thirst parlor of Boston.
 Whether inspired by indignation or beer, however, the result of the "tea party was the same. Even if the rebeIHous people of Boston knew that the bogus redskins were inspired by liquor their feelings must have been the same as those of President Lin coin or another historic occasion. A committee of temperance workers ap- peared before the President and made the charge that General Grant con- sumed large quantities of whiskey, whereupon Honest Abe" inquired if they knew the brand of liquor used by Grant, adding that he desired to secure several barrels of it to be con- sumed by other officers of the north ern armies.
 The iconoclasts will of course con- tend that this incident, too, is but a fable. If those people had their way, what dry thing history would be!

CHRISTMAS BELONGS
 TO KIDDIES

Grown folks may borrow Christmas day for their own, but by right of in heritance it really belongs first and last to the children-bIess them Everyone really feels this way, and whatever other gifts must be struck off the list this year, the chtldren's gifts of course, remain, says the Phil adelphia Record.
 In the caset of very young Chil- dren something in the way of toys is too great a joy to be denied, but toys now are more eXpentsive than ever and only strong, Well-made ones and those that have more than mere novelty to recommend them should be considered.
 Once upon time a useful pres ent" was the one dread of a child's Christmas. But now things have changed, and quite for the best, since many useful articles are camoufla ged well, with all the romance of child hood. What rosy pair of little feet will scorn a pair of warm felt slip pers, decorated with a cunning pie ture bunny! And what of a snug bathrobe in the same color as the slippers and gay with the rest Of that same bunny family! The goods for the bathrobe may be purchased so decorated.t
 How about gayly painted and stem ciled dress and coat hangers, as well as tree to match, that one may neatly hang up ones miniature wardrobe at night, ready for the morning. And there are all kinds of really substantial nursery furni- | ture, most artistic and indeed .faci- hating to live with which will be a joy all through childhood. Gayly painted tiny but practical desk sets. with book ends to match, are to be recommended, too. The latter bring 10 mind also the altogether lovely book plates to be had nowadays for children, h designs especially to please th2m. There is plenty of room for the child's name, too. Book plates encourage care in the hand ling of child's books. A little girls dainty white imitation ivory toilet set is sure to please, while q fur cap with fur gloves to match will reach the heart of a little boy quite as surely as many toys-and will last longer. A chiId's magazine com ing by subscription every nSenth, Is always a useful and worthwhile [ Christmas gift.

MOORE'S VICTORY
 STIRS ENGLAND

London, Dec. 16-The eboxing world of England is stirred to the depths over the decision that Pal Moore of the United States Navy defeated Jimmy Wilde, the English bantam ing.
 The hissing and booing which fol- lowed the decision has now developed into general controversy.
 In commenting on the bout the special correspondent of the London Times says:
 Tt is doubtful if any boxing de- cision of. the last twenty years, even the one between Freddy Welsh and Pacl1y Mcfarland, that was declar- ed a draw, has aroused so much con troversy as the one in Albert hall on Thursday night, when Jimmy Wilde was declared the loser in his bout with Pal Moore of the United States Navy
 T have been unable to find any one with a knowledge of boxing who is ready to uphold the decision of the judges. Capt. L. R. Warn of Can. ada was one of the judges who de- cided in favor of Wilde, and he re- marked, When the decision wa7 given to Moore I almost fell out of my chair in astonishment.'
 Wilde himself was unable to un. derstand how the judges could de. eide against him. He said: l thought I had won very easily and can assure you that nearly fainted in the ring when I heard the decis- 1 ion.'"
 Pal Moore had only one comment 1 to make. He remarked:
 T can beat Wilde any day 1T America"
 This would indicate, perhaps, tha Moore felt that he was under 2 handicap under the English method of deciding bouts, and that if ht could get the decision over Wilde un. l der the English rules that he could beat him without trouble in the l United States.

TODAY'S ANNIVERSARY,

The first presidential candidate of the Prohibition party of the United States was James Black, of Penn sylvania, who was nominated at the party's first national convention. held in Columbus, O., in 1872. Black was native of Lewisburg, Pa, and died in Lancaster twenty-six years years ago today. In 1876 Breon Clay Smith was the candidate of the 'dry" party, and boiled 9,552 votes, about 5000 more than Black. Neal Dow received 1O,3O5 votes in 1S8o. and John P. St. John was given 151, SO9 votes four years later. The par tvs high water mark during it's early existence was reached in 1892, when John Bidwelrs vote was 264,133. Al though prohibition sentiment has spread widely since then the vote or the party has decreased, and hae never since quite reached the high mark of 1892.

FREEMAN, FORGOTTEN FIGHTER, PRESS
 INTO PUGILISM.

In recounting the glories of the American ring, most pugilistc his torians overlook Charley Freeman who, although an American, never took part in a battle on this side of thet Atlantic.
 It was just seventy-six years ago today, Dec. 16, 1S42, that Freeman fought in England the second of the three bouts of his ring career, all of them being with one man, Bill Per ry. the Tipton 'Slasher, who after ward became the champion of Eng land.
 Freeman was ress-agented into embracing the profession of pugil- ism, and the account of how this pioneer Yankee boxer was induced to enter the game makes an inter- esting yarn. Freeman was a giant, standing six feet and ten and hali inches, and weighed 250 pounds He was a strong man aud circus rider by profession. When Ben Caunt, the famous British pugilist, visited New York about 184O, he met the Ameri- can Hercules, and made him a busi-
 
 i Freeman going to England with Caunt They travelled about at vari- ous fairs, Caunt displaying his ifs tic prowess and Freeman his feats oi ! strength.
 Some London sporting reporter saw Freeman. and wrote an imaginary 1 story to the effect that the American 1 giant had come to England to fight being a star pugilist in America, bu | that the English boxers were a! afraid to meet him. That starte6 things. Johnny Broome immediate ly challenged Freeman, on behalf ) Perry, the Tipton Slasher. In vaiI the pig Yankee protested that he was not a fighter. When he refused thu match. the sporting writers of Lon don accused him of cowardice, ant at length Freeman accepted the def and declared he would defend "th honor of America"

MPSEY-MORRIS
 | AT NEW ORLEANS

With the conclusion of the Kings boxing carnival in London, which served to revive athletic relations be- tween the United States and Great Britain, interest in pugilism this week will centre in the 20-round bout at
 New Orleans tonight between Jack Dempsey and Carl Morris. Unless the Utah boy should be off form he should win easily, although Morris, a rough and tumble battler who employs his head as much as his fists, is likely to surprise him. For Morris the match will be fraught with possibilities. Should he be defeated
 decisively he will retire from the
 ring. It will be his last attempt to come back. Dempsey has already defeated,
 Morris on two occasions by knockouts
 and doubtless will repeat tonight. 1 Morris has been resting on theecouch of retirement for several months and is said to have grown stouter than ever.
 After disposing of the Oklahoman, Dempsey may be matched to fight Tom Cowler, and the bout probably
 will be staged in Philadelphia. Cow l Ter, however, should prove just as easy for the Utah battler as the other de- crepit heavyWeights of his class Cow i Ter admittedly is a hard hitter, but Dempsey should stow him away in short order.
 Those behind the proposed match
 are raising quite a stir in fistic circles i by their propaganda which is design | ed to make it appear that Dempsey
 fears to meet the Britain with the i fragile jaw.
 | Pal Moore's defeat of Jimmy Wilde 1 in a three round bout in the finals of
 the Kings boxing carnival in London i should start golden windfall for the 1 Memphis boxer. Pal has been boxing l in this country for the last few years and although youth of much prom
 ise, has been regarded as a mediocre i bantam. He had improved in the last few months, however, and advices ! from London indicate that he showed
 to better advantage in the tournament
 than any of the other American pug
 ilists.
 Moore's victory over Wilde has given his stock a pronounced boost on ] the fistic bourse and promoters the
 country over are bidding for his ser
 vices. Moore already has left Eng ! land and will arrive in this country
 in a few days. His first match prob ably will be with Frankie Burns. the
 Jersey City bantam, who holds two i decisions over the Memphis boxer.

EMPLOYED PUGILIsTS FOR
 "STRONG-ARNf'' JOBS

In the old days pugilists were use full as we'll as ornamental. Noble men hired them as bodyguards, and companies of bruisers were employ ed to keep crowds in order at royal functions. One of the oldest uses to which boxers were put was during the 1909 riots in the Covent Garden theatre in London. The playhouse had raised its prices, and the indig- nant public retaHated by starting a 'rough-h house" in the theatre every night. In this crisis the theatre management engaged Dutch Sam, one of the famous pugilists of the day, to organize corps of boxers to main tain the peace and eject dfsorderly persons. The last and most feroci- ous of the nightly battles between these pugilists and the mob occurred on the night of Dec. 16, 1909, and on the following day a treaty of peace was arranged, which ended the riot ing. A rhymster of the day wrote: They send their boxers, who saucily sit, with their doxies in front-sea IS of boxes and pit, with orders to stifie the voice of the town, and convince us of error by knocking us down"

B. H. s, OPENS
 SEASON WITH WIN

The Bridgeport High School Boys basketball team opened their sea son Saturday and won their first game from Torrington High School by the score of 54 to II. The game was one sided throughout and it could be seen after a few minutes of play that the Torrington boys were outclassed.
 Benny Blade playing left forward for the locals and later Center, play ed a fine game throughout, caging eleven baskets for a total of twenty two points. Jack Maher playing right forward for the locals, also played a good game and prevented many goals from being caged. Sub stitutes in the last half were put in and they gave a good account of themselves.
 In the preliminary the local girls were beat by the Milford High school gals by the score of IA to Il. Miss Schwertdle and Miss Liebrum put up a good game for the locals, while Miss Woodruff and Miss Smith play ed well for Milford.
