 then making it excuse to drop to the
 mat, thus ending the round.
 After Kilrain had failed to whip Smith,
 interviews were given out by Sullivan
 which were of a rather derisive nature concerning Kilrain's ability. When Smith
 could gain nothing but draw over Nit
 chell, it gave to Kilrain his chance to
 even up with Sullivan in the utterance
 of ridcule. For many months afterward Kilrain. Richard K. Fox and other eni-
 mics of Sullivan, indulged in giving the I ''razz" to John L. There was a certain purpose in that and Fox expressed it when he said:
 If we keep bounding Sullivan long
 enough and keep jeering at him long enough, we'll force him into a match" Fox was right.
 | The hammering of Sullivan through the l summer and fall of 1888, to which was
 added public clamor for a Sullivan | Kilrain fight, with bare knuckles, finally had it's result on December Y 1888 when | John J.. summoned the newspaper men | to him, and announced:
 i've felt all along that Kilrain was fourflushng in his challenges to me. | I still think so. I don't think he will | fight me if he gets chance. But I'm | going to give him the chance now. If | Kilrain wants to take me on in match | for the championship, I'll oblige him, | rrcvlded he agree to a $20,000 scde bet
 and deposits $500O in New York city to show good faith If Kilrain is the great fighter that he thinks he is, and if Fox thinks Kilrain Is world beat CT ! guess those fellows won't worry 1 ooout putting up any $20,Oo0. It is Kilfain's chance to win, not only the | cha mPionship in a clean and str a'ght- cut fashion, but $20,000 besides" | i<!lrain and Fox showed that they velen't bluffing by announcing imme- l diately afterward that the Sullivan ch. ,lenge would be accepted. | One month later-anuary 2, 1sS9-ar- tiries were signed in Toronto for the 1 Sullivan-Kilrain fistic encounter in Richburg, Miss.

PAINTERS MEET
 BULL DOGS TODAY Birmingham Southern and Howard to Play at Eagles
 Field
BY BOB McDAvID

Indications point to another rat ting good college game this aft noon when the Howard Baptists play the Birmin g ham, Southern Partners on Eagles field at 3;D o'clock. Tos these two crack varsity hines this game is of the same rel alive importance the annual Au- burD-Ala bama contest used to be to followers of the Crimson Tigers. It is the real event in the baseball schedule and the one to which every alumnus looks forward with the keen est anticipation. For rivalry and root ing the battle on the Howard campus today will exceed any previous meet ing of these two schools.
 Both teams are in fine fettle and are rated about on par by the experts wac have watched them work. Walker and Martin are the Baptists' best bet while the Methodists' leading hurlers are Miller and Henderson.
 The showing of the Howard team against the University of Alabama Monday stamps them as one of the fast rah-rah hines of the south and if the Panthers succeed in defeating them as they did in football, it will certainly be big feather in their caps The Panthers count on their defen- sive work and the hurling of the pitch CTS to stop that Howard wreckinS crew. In the last three games BirmlnS- ham, m-Southern hasn't made an error and they are anxious to go through to- days melee without marring this rec ord.
 Towards lineup is as follows: Jackson, centerfield; o. B. Newman third base Crew, catcher; Griffin, shortstop; Carr, leftfield; Duke, first tase; W. D. Newman, rightfield; Me Lane, second base; Walker, pitcher. Full citizenship was conferred on 162,-
 402 soldiers and sailors up to January l. under the act of Congress passed last May, according to report issued by the bureau of naturalization.

 (Editors Note: This is the eight of a
 series of articles which MT Corbett is
 writing concerning the puglstic career
 of Jake Klrain, one of the greatest heavy weights that America-or any
 other country ever produced The next
 install lment will appear tomorroW)
 About the time that Jake Kilrain bat tied with Jem Smith, the English cham pion, John L. Sullivan wen to Europe and was accorded a tremendous reception upon his public appearance.
 Some of John Ls enimies insisted that Sullivan went to Europe merely because he felt that Kilrain might attempt to "steal some of his popularity stuff" Xiii rains matching with Smith was tre- menduous boost for Jake. Many Brltons had claimed that John l.. was afraid to tackle Smith. When Kilrain agreed to fight him 1t naturally booseted Kilrain in public opinion.
 Kilrain's failure to earn more than a draw with Smith undoubtedly brought joy to Sullivan. If Sullivan, then claim ant of the technical championship of America, had disposed of Smith in a decisive fashion it certainly would have jolted the prestige of John L. But when Jake secured only a draw with smith, 1t meant lost opportunity for Jake-and John L. retained his ranking as the peer less American warrior.
 While in Sngland John L. ignored chal- lenges from Smith but when the Europ- can public demanded that he display his prowess in a real fight, Sullivan agreed to fight Charlie Mitchell. Mitchell was much smaller and much lighter than Smith and although far faster and clev- erer, he was not figured to be as good a match for the brawny Sullivan as would have been Smith. But John passed up Smith and took on Nitchel-the same Mitchell he had whipped some years earlier in short glove contest in New York.
 Sullivan, as will be remembered, was a topheavy favorite in that battle-but the best he could get was draw. Mitchell, knowing that weight and height and reach were against him, resorted to speed and strategy. Using his nible legs he kept out of John Us way round after round He thwarted every rushing attack oi John l.. by taking a light punch and

 Herr Bernstein says he would like to see republican Germany depart from the policies of the abolished empire, adding:

THE PROMISE OF EASTER.

We know Easter as one of
the two great religious festivals
of the year. After the self-de-
NAL and sadness of Lent it COM
es to us as a great JOY.
In being emblematic of the
Resurrection it is emblematic
of life and hope. And every
thing in the season when we
celebrate it is suggestive of the
same idea. The return of
spring and verdure and bird
life each year is like the fulfill
ment of a hope.
The allies tell us that the
peace treaty will be completed
and offered to the world by
Easter. No more appropriate
time could be found for its pro-
mitigation.
After the years of destruc-
ton and suffering which the
war has entailed,-after terror
and chaos, we hope for a new
made world, a world whose in
spiration will be brotherly love
and strong sense of mutual
obligation and helpfulness
among nations.
We have not reached the
millennium. The change in old
custom and thought cannot be
immediate. But the peace
treaty is the first step toward a
world governed by right and
justice. And its completion
seems, like Easter. symbolic of
hope and joy.

Now the great body of labor
is dissatisfied with the present

The cost of living there as here
is extremely high. Workers
are unwilling to accept any
prospect of lesser wages and
capitalists are timid.
The suggestion is made that
labor itself should take some of
the abandoned munition plants
and run them. the government
furnishing the capital to refit

that the trade unions should
undertake the task.
1t is an admirable opportun-
ity to test the practical work
ing of a combination between
the government and the work
ers, doing away with capital
lists and middle men. The gov
eminent would ensure a supply
of raw materials, and all pro-

FOOD SELECTION
FOR THE HOME.

The most important daily in
cident of the housekeeper's
routine is the selection and pre-
paration of food for her family.
1t is a tribute to her intelligence
and industry if her husband
goes out to his work and her
children to their school well
nourished and satisfied. In
order to bring this about she
must know something of the
proper combination of foods.
The meals served every day
should contain a proportion of
each of the following groups of
foods
/. Fruits and vegetables.
These contain mineral sub
stances of great value.
2. Meats and meat substi-
tutes, such as poultry, fish,
beans, eggs, milk and cheese.
These are the muscle and tissue
building foods.
3. Starches, including bread
and cereals of all kinds. Ger
eals come nearer to supplying
nutrition than any other class
of foods.
A. Sugar, including honey,
mOlasses and other sweets.
Sugar supplies the body with
heat and energy.
5. Fats, such as butter and
cream, lard and vegetable fats.
These classes of food are all
necessary for the well-balanced
diet. If each meal shows it's
due proportion of them, the
household is on a good basis of
variety and nutrition. The
foods must of course be well
cooked and seasoned and APP
petizingly served.
The housewife who carries
out these principles is doing
Ter duty to her home and to her
country.

WHO'S WHO IN EUROPE
AND HERE?

There is a dispute among
philologists concerning the
meaning of the word "bolshev-
ISM. As the word "Bolshe"
means larger, and "menshe"
smaller, it is usually inferred
that bolshevist is one who
favors government by the ma
jority, and that a menshevist is
his political antithesis.
But we learn from a scholar
of long residence in Russia that
the word "bolshevism" means
the larger or more extreme in
depreciation of the socialistic
doctrines of Karl Marx. This
reconciles the derivation of the
word with the fact that the boil
shevists are by no means in the
majority. Eighty per cent of
the Russian population gives
them no recognition. The boil
shevists are mostly city labor
ers who have given up laboring
and entered the army, where
they are much better fed and
clothed. They constitute, in
fact, a military despotism of
the type that existed under the
Car, but not as well system
atized.
The fact that the soviet army
runs into seven figures is there
fore of no value as a test of the
political leanings of the total
population. The bolshevist
party includes the army, and
practically comedies with it.
Manufactured product and ac-
cumulated capital on which the
regime exists is not exhauted,
but none is being developed.
Nothing much is being manu-
featured. New raw material
is not being gathered. Depre-
citation and depletion must de-
velop into exhaustion. And
when no fuel is left the fire
must die. And after that,
what? A practical, systema-
tized experimentation, in
fact? Or democracy?
These questions would have
