gain nothing by the manner of cham pionship said to have been shown in Representative Gallivan's recent speech.
 The representative is said to have called Dempsey a 'big bum" He is reported to have spoken words which indicated that the French champion, Carpenter, did not enter the war until he was practically forced to do so.
 Today comes the news that the Frenchman went to war when it started and was twice cited for bravery in ac- ton. Dempsey has been tried and cleared of charges that he did his best to keep out of the war. Dempsey's case interested many in this country who were not at all interested in prize fighting. People have formed their own opinions concerning him.
 But it is especially desirable that erroneous statements concerning a stranger to America, who is in the pub lie eye and wro is not a criminal, at least. be corrected.
 The most significant matter in con- nection with the speech referred to IS that it again displays a general ten dency toward q lack of reliability de- plorable in any representative of the people.
 Patriotism may stir man to excite ment which inspires him to make wild statements; other things may inspire him to speak incorrectly on other sub jects.
 But it is submitted that the people ought to be able to place reliance on the words spoken publicly by their rep resentatives. in the halls in which they are engaged in the work which the peo- pie trusted them to do and to do fairly and honestly.

In the days Of old arinory the mace
was military implement used for
dealing heavy blows. It was frequent

saddle bow, where it was suspended
By a thong which passed through the
upper part OF the handle; this thong
was wound around the wrist to pre-
vent its loss by the force Of a blow.
IT could be conveniently welded with
one hand and had many forms. The
head was of ten spikes, and some
times consisted Of six. eight or more
radiating blades, grouped around a
central spike. all Of steel. In England
during the time Of the Plantagenets
the mace was used in battles and
tournaments. and was superseded by.
the pistol lii the time of Elizabeth.
The ornamental maces Of parliament,
the universities, and the city corpora
lions may be traced to the Twelfth
and Thirteenth centuries. The house
Of commons has possessed no less than
three maces, and that Of the lord may
