Billy dear" The feeling that crept
into her tone surprised even Molly
herself and she stopped abruptly.
Billy turned away, absently knock
ing out his pipe against the old
marble mantelpiece, bordering he.t
strange request. When he faced her
again he looked deeply troubled.
"To what end, Molly?" -
Isn't that end enough?"
Well, then, with what result?
That | may all the more surely lose
you?" He stood a little away from
her, yet Molly had strange feeling
as if he were holding her hands
warmly, tightly.
Listen, Molly. | haven't pestered
you with declarations. l saw you

and sunlight and strength and hope
and courage.

too, that when you knew yourself
better you would know which of us

"But-when you ask me to help
you choose another man" - his
voice grew husky - "this Ben
Wheeler, hard-minded, hard-hearted
maker of steel knives, who breaks
his word and tries to break me"
That is true, Billy Nevertheless,

To the Chattanooga Times:
May | have a little space to dis
cuss a matter vital to every reader
of your paper? 1t is the wage ques-
ton of railway employees. 1t is writ
that the "laborer is worthy of his
hire" and that men shall live by
the sweat of their brow" Live, not
exist, is the meaning of this. Let
us have faith in the right" said a
great American, and that means let
us be fair to the men who work upon
the great railroads of America. The
writer is not an employee, or of the
management of any railroaS. He is
merely one of the public, a bystand-
er, and the bystander generally gets
hit when the fracas starts.
The railroads, by the grace of the
Labor Board, are getting ready to
put into effect another reduction of
the wages Of their employees. This,
remember, will be the third cut for
many of them. They have cut these
wages until it hurts already. Take,
for instance, the maintenance
of way men, the section
men, the laborers about the
yards, the shops and along the lines,
some 100000 in all These men are
now paid $2.64 per day. Let us see
what they are up against as matters
now stand, If they work every day
in the year, excluding Sundays, they
will get in 313 days of ten hours
each, that will average for then
years work $2.26 per day. That is,
if they do not lose a day or an hour
on account Of weather or sickness,
they will make this amount. These
men average four children to the
family, together with mother and the
bread-winner. they make fawily of
six. That means this railroad man
has earned 81 cents day for each
member of his little family. Out
of the prlncely sum he must feeC
his family; he must buy their clothe;
and shoes; he must buy his schoo
books; he must pay his doctors bills
he must pay his house rent, for he
cannot buy home, and all out OF
81 cents a day. he must not lay
off day for any reason. He must
not take the Fourth of July off He
must work on Labor Day He must
not 20 to the cemetery on Memorial
Day to lay a flower on the grace
maybe of his boy, who died in France
No; he must work every one of the
working days if he has his 81 cents
day. If his children want to &c
to movie, they must take the price
out of their 81 cents a day If his
little boy wants baseball bat il
must come out of his 81 cents a day
That same boy cannot join the Boy
Scouts for the reason he has no mon
ey to buy his uniform. His little
girl cannot 60 to party, for a par

INDIANA LAW NOT
To STOP LEONARD
KANSAS TITLE BOUT
Will Be Boxing Contest, Not
"Prize Fight; $4,000
May See Tilt.

Michigan, City. Ind, July 3.-(By
The Associated Press.)-Michigan City
Monday night was on edge for its first
taste Of glove fighting in a champion
ship contest Tuesday, when Rocky
Kansas of Buffalo. y. T., will make
his third attempt to wrest the light
weight championship title from Benny
Leonard of New York.
Kansas is confident he can win by a
Knockout. Leonard is a . to l ia
vorite to win the popular decision and
some shrewd critics believe he will stop
Kansas before the scheduled 10 rounds
are finished. Kansas expects to go
into the ring weighing about 1873
pounds. while Leonard probably will
be four pounds heavier.
With fair, cool weather predicted,
indications are that between $4,000
and 10000 persons will pack Promoter
Floyd FitzSimmons' arena. The gate
receipts, according to advance indica-
tions. probably will go above the $751;
0O mark and may reach 100000.
There was no apparent danger Mon
day night that the contest would be
stopped by the authorities Tuesday.
Governor McCray communicated with
the sheriff and prosecuting ::torney.
authorizing them to prevent the match
If they were convinced that it would be
a prize fight. These officials after in
vestigations, said that the bout would
be a boxing contest.
Both the champion and the challeng-
er, housed in cottages a few rods apart
on the Lake Michigan beach, finished
their training in what their handlers
called perfect condition. They went
through the mildest sort of exercises
Monday just to keep their muscles
loosened.
II never went into q contest with
more confidence Kansas said. ITO
get the title, l must knock out Leonard.
Benny is fast. He can hit and he is a
wardly clever. ! know ! can hit, and
chin, no matter whether you are cham
pion or not. If | can knock him out.
III do it,
Leonard admits that Kansas is the
most dangerous contender of all light
weights and while he doesn't expect to
lose his title, he is ready for the stiff
est kind of a contest.
II know | am going against the
toughest opponent of all lightweight
contenders." Leonard said. but I
think I'm going to win. | know his
ability to hit because I've fought him
four times. three times as champion.
I'll need speed. for Kansas can do 10
rounds at a furious pace. He says
he has been ahead of me at the end Of
10 rounds in our la t two contests.
He won't he ahead this time
