Benito Perez.Caldos,
Spanish Author, Dead
Leading Fiction Writer Expires
After Long Illness; Was
Aided bv His Rulers

In the death of Benito Perez -Galdos,
which occurred at Madrid Saturday,
Spain has lost one Of its foremost tic-
tion writers. Senior PerezGaldos was
born in the Canary Isles in 1845 and
in his boyhood went to Madrid to study
law. He soon abandoned that pursuit
for journalism and fiction. He wrote
FIVE series of historical romances, of
ten volumes each, covering the history
of Spain from the beginning Of Napo-
Icons aggressions down to the Spanish
American War and the loss of Spain's
last colonies.
He wrote a score or more of novels
all dealing with Spanish themes and
most of them portraying phases Of the
irrepressible conflict between old-time
aristocracy and conservation and mod
ern revolutionary ideas with which
latter he was himself in strong sym
pathy. He was a radical republican
and frequently wrote and spoke on
political topics, though he did not seek
Office.
Senior Perez Galdos also was a pro-
life playwrite. His greatest success
was "Electra," produced in 1891. which
created a sensation and exerted prob
ably great political influence.
Seve,tl years ago his health and his
sight failed and he was subjected tc
abject want. In this extremity the
King and Queen started a subscription
for his benefit, generously ignoring ths
fact that he had for half century
been an intense anti-royalist, and il
the closing years Of his life he was
rescued from penury.

rection of his gaze. one suddenly changes his mind and announces that Brady has the victory sewed up Then. taking count of his thoughts and actions, the bug gives it up as bad job and decides to wait until late Tuesday night before rendering his decision in the matter. And a wise old fellow he is.
 DOPING IT OUT
 Now, to look at the matter from the bugs first angle of concentration. Boorde is slugger. Brady is not Boorde can hit harder, as accurately and as fast as Brady. He fights every minute of the time. Boorde can take many hard licks without visibly weakening. His wind is excellent and he is as tough as young mule. It must be admitted from the above calculations that Boorde seems to have quite an edge on Brady.
 But to give the other fellow a chance. we turn to the opposite side of the ques- tion. Brady is a finished boxer, Booru- is not. Brady is as shifty on his feet as sidestepping halfback moseying through a cactus field in his bare feet. Boorde would rather wade through it; that is, he would rather stand up and slug and take chance of getting floored Brady has a decided knack or stepping, feinting to either the nlidriff or face, hitting both of them somehow or other and getting out without injury. He has tried this on Boorde and It works Brady has beaten Boorde Ill their first fight Surely that fellow JACK Brady can't lose to Freddie Boorde Tues day night, seems to. be the unanimous decision of all but Wait, let's think efsfs thing oyer Can he or can't he lose?
 After a few more hours of pondering the matter we are forced to leave IL 70 the income tax adviser and bide out tune until Tuesday night
 Seriously, both fighters are everytnlns that has been said about thtm in the preceding paragraphs. Perhaps they are a little bit more. The fight between them should certainly be an interesting affair.

Baptist Church Picnic.

The Register-Seldom have I spent
a more delightful afternoon than yes
terday's. A car was sent in to con-
vey me out to the picnic given by the
Baptist church at the country seat of
the late r. d: Lewis; this beautiful
property having been recently pur-
chased by the Baptist church for a
home for the superanuated members,
at least those of them who want to
avail themselves of its kindly portals.
A more healthful and. desirable spot
could not have been selected for this
purpose. Majestic oaks stand like
eternal sentinels on the lawn toguard
it against storm and heat; lakes of
pure crystal water simmer through
the dense folsage. 1t was a wise head
that conceived the acquisition of this
beautiful and valuable property.
DIR. Riggs and his good wife are ad-
mirably qualified for the work they
have undertaken in the management
of this property and care of the aged
and infirm inmates. 1t was touching
to note their gentle attentions and
deep solicitude for their every com
fort and pleasure. Mr.. s. P. Ringo
and his charming wife, who are, it is
said, the Patron Saints of this church,
were present dispensing hospitality in
that quiet way that makes one feel
easy and at home. Then there was
Jake Tins, presiding over a huge
punch bowl with hospitable hand;
Jake, always bonhommie and handy.
He can trot the collie out of squalling
baby, lift an aged paralytic with the
tenderness of a mother, or make an
ter-dinner speech that would make
Chauncey Depew ''feel like 80 cents.'
For genuine cordially, and old.time
hospitality, and a bounteous supply
of good things to eat, I commend the
Baptist! CARY LEIGH CARSON.
