TALK OF DEMPSEY WILLS MATCH
ALL BUNK, FARRELL STATES

Paddy Mullins. the closomouthof
manager OF wills. did not go out
aud celebrate when he heard that a
Dempsey-Wills match was being
smoked up In England
lie shifted his cigar from one
corner TO the other and remarked:
Il cant see the use OF leaving
right away"
Mcdonald hasn't enough money to
buy ring for Dempsey and Will
TO fight in and the big promoters OF
London who can be counted on n
couple of fingers. seldom beat
through an agent.
Kearns being In Europe, London
and Paris promoters don't have to
cable over to learn II Wills would
journey TO London for fight,
Kearns knows that he would and
Kearns has the authority to close
for both Dempsey and Wills il he
finds the right spot and the right
cash on the other side. 81
There is no doubt that Kearns
and Mullins have agreed on the
essentials months ago. The only
things remaining are the place, the
promoter and the cash.
When Chr les y. Cochrane, one of
the few mcn in Europe able to
swing such bout says he wouldn't
consider 1t and when Major Arnold
Wilson, the leading promoter of Lon
don, hasn't raced for the fight,
George Mcdonald would not be able
to put ii over.

&A T ESV probably the
ws>o oldest of our
ssM. states. While
it is the last of the states to be

such dates its existence only

into the dim past Here were
located those interesting people,
the Cliff Dwellers, and the ruins
of their cities high up in mac
cessible places have caused much
speculation as to these ancient
people. It is supposed that these
Cliff ,DWellers were the ances-
tors of the Pueblo Indians and
were decidedly more advanced
in civilization than their neigh
bors. They were probably Of
the same race as the .Aztecs of
Mexico and understood irriga-
tion, agriculture and the build
ing arts.
It was rumors Of the great
Pueblos that instigated the first
visit of the white men. Padre
Nizan in 1889 explored this ter
ritory and he was followed by
Coronado in search of the myth.
ical wealth of the Indian cities.
Coronado, though failing to find
the reputed gold, did discover
the Grand Canon of the Colo
RADIO with its wonderful scenic
beauty, which has become one OF,
the great assets Of the, state.
This region was considered
] part Of Spanish territory and
when Mexico declared its inde-..
pendence it became a Mexican
province. After. the Mexican
war the section north Of the Gila
river was ceded to the United
States and the southern portion
was acquired through the Gads-

Mr.. BRYAN'S GIFT.

Mr. Bryan is always doing some interesting
things and frequently he does a gracious
thing His most recent act IS both interesting
and gracious. 1t is the gift of his residence
property at Lincoln, Neb., known as Fair
view. to the Methodist Episcopal church for
hospital purposes Previously Mr.. Bryan, be-
ing a Presbyterian by faith had proffered
the property to the Presbyterian church, but
that body declined the tender. With the res
idence goes substantial brick barn and 10
acres Of ground. Fairview is a valuable prop
erty. 1t is located in one of the choicest sub
urban residence districts of Lincoln. When
Mr. Bryan purchased acreage and erected his
home in that locality it was mostly farm
land although close to the city. He still
owns a considerable acreage there It's val
ue is now placed at $4,000 per acre and to
reproduce the Fairview residence, it is esti-
mated would require something like S65,0O0
to $4,000 People will remember the build
ing of Fairvew; how the brick barn was
first erected, and how the organs dwet there
in while the house was being built The de-
light of the organs in their new home is
recalled. 1t was the first home OF their pros
perity The organs had known what it was
to be poor-very poor. When the sun of
prosperity shone upon them their dreams of
home first took shape in Fairview, Everyone
who has built a home knows how it is. When
Fairview had been completed and occupied
hospitality was enthroned therein. Many Wis
itors of one sort and another, from far and
near, passed through its doors Mr.. Bryan s
activities had brought to him both Of friends
and wide acquaintance and the great and
the near great, together with many of the
common people, were his guests. Thus for
many years Farview was a Mecca of GER
tain sort AS time passed, however, the Bry-
ans were attracted elsewhere. Texas, North
Carolina and finally Florida claimed them.
Their visits to Fairview became less fire.
quent and finally they relinquished their Ne
braska residence to become citizens OF the
state of Florida. For months Fairview
has been unoccupied Having no further use
for it as a residence, it has been in Mr..
Bryans mind to bestow the property where
it could be utilized to some high purpose.
1t is a generous gift that he makes to the
Methodist church, and one that is entirely
creditabe to his kindness and his dealism.
Time and circumstance have dealt kindly
with Mr.. Bryan. He has made good use OF
his gifts, and he has prospered. He also has
been thrifty and prudent, and there is no
reason to suspect that he is not comfortably
situated. His disposition of his Fairview
property indicates that it is his intention TO
to devote his aCcumulations to worthy pur-
poses at the proper time.

RUDE RURAL RHYMES
JOHNNY APPLESEED.

I'll write that he who runs may read a
rhyme OF Johnny Appleseed. Men called him
cracked, his ways were quaint, he was a hero
and saint His praise the heavenly chorus
sings while all the angels flap their wings He
left the town. the beaten track with apple
seeds upon his back, and where he saw likely
site he planted them to left and right then
lying on the ground at night he thought OF
more unselhsh schemes and planted apples
i'll his dreams. May heaven send for modern
need more men like Johnny Appleseed. He
ate each day one fruit or more but never
threw away the core. The seeds he rescued
from his jaw blessed later gents he never
saw, and not a tree he ever stuck bore fruit
that he would ever pluck but when our faith
ers emigrated they found young orchards
ready planted. What though your work men
never know and credit it to me or Joe, let's
do our darndest here below | too will twang
the Tyre again to benefit MY fellow-men l too
will rise and write some rhymes that folks
may grin in later times. And when discour-
aged stumped and freed, I'll think OF Johnny
Appleseed. BOB ADAMS.

CURRENT COMMENT.

New York Telegraph: Maids and spinsters
"a spinster being a maiden in the post-grad-
uate class) are much agitated over conditions
in Bridgeton, n J., we are informed by the
public prints. The town has population OF
5000 and only one couple decided to marry
in the whole month of March Confessedly,
it is a bad showing, but an apparent DISPOSE
ton to blame the bachelors is not, i'll our
Judgment, altogether fair. We have no brief
for the bachelor and frequently wonder just
why he cumbers the earth, but even bach
elor should be given his due In the last few
years, it seems to US pulpit and press, Reform
ers and radicals of every school have been
doing what they could to brighten bachelors
and to discourage matrimony The girl once
referred to as Sweet Sixteen" is now flap
per-" her sister year or two older is a
"shifter" or gold digger" and other wo-
men are fox-trotters, cigarette addicts and
cocktail hounds, if we are to believe half we
read or fourth we hear. Is it any wonder,
then, that bachelors are reluctant? For our
part, we do not believe the ISLANDERS circulat-
ed about young women; we are ashamed OF
societys attitude toward its debutantes, and
yet we are strong for reform. We should be-
gin by reforming the scandal-mongers the
critics of contemporary women.

Are You a Blotter?
From the Colquitt Sun.

Are you blotter?
A b1otter always absorbs and never gives
out anything 1t absorbs until it can absorb
no more, and then it is good for nothing
When. it has absorbed all it will hold it is
thrown away, or should be, because it is no
good for any purpose.
Some people in this old world are just ex-
act1y like a blotter. They are intelligent, re-
sourcefu1, energetic, truthful and honest but
SELFISH.
A real SELFISH person is no good nor
benefit to the world He absorbs everything
and everybody, but it is all done for SELF.
A selfish person cannot enjoy life. He can
not enjoy what he has absorbed because he
is miserable all the time-afrad he will put
out something accidentally
When he is gone there will be mo foot
prints on the sands Of time" and he will not
be missed
His leaving this old world will be like stick
ing your finger in vessel containing water
No hole will be left Just little ripple upon
the surface-on that and nothing more.
The world is not better off for his having
lived in tin fact no one is benefited by such
a life.
Are you like blotter? Are you living. for
yourself? Are you grasping and absorbing and
not putting out value received? II so, you are
not honest with yourself nor with the world.

Juror IN CONGRESS.

Sioux Falls Press: There are branches of
public service in which civil service regula-
tons have been highly beneficial, as in the
general working branches of the postal SER
vice, but the application of civil service reg
ulations in some Of the departments in Wash
ington has been due principally to rival par
tisan efforts to nail down political jobs. While
the recent housekeeping ir the bureau of en-
craving was due in part to a small raid on
democratic job holders indications are that
most OF those removed should have been GUST
ed on general principles. The department has
been overloaded with help and general atti-
tude of shiftlessness had developed in connec-
ton with work which formerly was handled
with great efficiency. In that department, and
in many other Washington departments, civil
service has operated to clog the machinery,
As new administrations have come into pow
er, beset by nationwide clamor for big jobs
and little jobs, the old privilege of turning
the rascas out" has not extended far enough
to meet the demands.

GROWTH OF THE CHURCHES.

The churches of the United States made
substantial gains in membership last year, but
not much is being said abou. it. A year or
two ago when losses were recorded a lot was
said about it. In a way the situation is com
plimentary TO the churches. They ex-
pected to show gains and therefore gains
excite little comment. When they exhibit
losses in membership that is unusual, and it
is the unusual that is news. Gains in church
membership in these distracted times when
indifference to religion is so general and is so
much complained Of are indications that the
churches still are militant, and not yield
ing any ground to the forces arrayed against
them. There are numerous signs indicating
that the fighting spirit OF the churches never
was better. and that never have they been
more alive to their responsibilities and oppor-
tunities than they are today
