LAUDE Wilson will fight in Birmingham at an early date,
 if plans of Tommy Tompkins and company go through. The be- freckled fight impresarrio returned from his invasion of the east Sat- urday afternoon, bringing back Birmingham young bantamweight champion, Claude Wilson.
 Tommy and Claude left Birming- ham about a month ago, visited Gotham, Patterson, N. J., Passaic' and other points east. Claude fought four times. won three knock-outs and won one decision, and the two packed up their belongings and re- turned to the Magic City.
 Tompkins stated Saturday night that he has wired Eddie Coulon, of New Orleans, an offer to fight Claude Wilson at the Birmingham Athletic club within the next week or ten days. Tommy expects an an- swe- some time Sunday, and will then announce definitely when Bir- mingham's next fight show will come off.
 With Tommy and Claude came
 Jimmy Proto to the Magic City,
 Saturday afternoon. Proto Is
 promising young bantamweight,
 whom Tommy Tompkins says he
 lifted from under the noses of
 several eastern fight managers,
 who were trying to land Proto's
 name to n contract. Tompkfns
 stated that he expects to put his
 in n d-
 CT at the Birmingham Athletic
 club sometime in the near fu-
 ture.
 Tommy Tompkins is elated with the splendid form shown by his young champion, Wilson. Here's what Tommy himself has to say about it:
 You would be surprised to see how much Wilson has improved. Why, he is actually boxing better than ever. and has taken on enough poundage to add to his hitting abil- ity.
 Claude weighs 11S pounds now. something like four more than he did when he left Birmingham. And hit, why that boy soaks 'em in like Pancho Villa now. He knocked out three tough birds up east, and fight fans of Paterson and Passaic have taken him in as their own.''
 A newspaper clipping from Pater- son sport sheet describes Wilson's fight with Green Thursday night as a decisive victory for Claude, and states that the young southern champion fought his way into the hearts of the fans"

perfcie e,l ell fondo de las poesias de
innegable merito, como Juana de Ibar
borou Y Delmira Agustini, que a mi
yer, forman con Gabriela MistraI.
Concha Melendez, ell supreme cuadro
de la poesia femenina de hispanoam6-
RIGA, en- ell momento actual.
La curioSidad masculine, siempre ha
tratado de ahondar en- los misterios del
alma femenina. Los hombres STEM
pre- hemos estado ansiosos de conocer
desde el nlodo de pSnsar, hasta la ma
nera de ser, de las mujeres, mas adn
81 estas muieres, ademas de selectas.
cuItas refnadas, son poetisas. Yo,
por mi he de decir, que siempre he an
siado conocer los distintos eStados
psiquicos do las poetisas, no tanto por
la natural curiosidad 81 que tambien
porque nunca he acertado a compren-
der como teniendo, menos oportunida-
des de cantar las cosas reales, como
las tencmos nosotros, pueden hacer Ii
teratura que perdure sin necesidad de,
absolute realismo y de la escueta ex-
preston de los conceptos.
Esta curiosidad masculine, la ha he.
cho cantar en- la poesia "Vulgaridad' =:
Los hombres que Sc asoman curiosos

La idea, va iniciada, retorna al vir-
(ginal

bajo la amargura de una Erase vulgar
escondo mi esperanza irrealizable
Ademas de las tendencias hasta aho-
ra apuntadss, hay dos mas, que mues-
tran sus colores en- la obra de Concha
Melendez: la tendencia mistica, y la
tendencia patri6tica.
FL misticisno de Concha Melendez,
es ell divine saludable misticismo de
Fray Luis de Leon, el de Teresa del
Buen JESUS, y el mas reciente de ANA
do Nervo Rabindranath Tagore, pc
ro, en- especial Ell de Amado Nervo, a
quien ella idolatra, con todas las poten-
cias de su espiritu
Recien iniciada ain, hace seis sic
te amos, y siendo Nervo, Ministro PIE
nipotenciario de M6jico en- Montevi-

neto titulado 'Saludo -Amado Ner-
vo', y que NADIA tiene que, desear dc
las tantas composiciones que en- loor
del mistico de Tepic, fueron escritas,
mientras el viva:
Cantor de los eternos imposibles,

D. A. R. HOLDS CONVENTION
Mrs. George Maynard Miner OF Conn,
Retiring President General, Gives
Annual Address.

Washington, April ia buzz of
politics went into memorial continent
tai hall today with the two thousand
delegates converting there for the
32nd annual continental congress of
the Daughters of the American Revo-
luton. Electioneering in behalf of
candidates in the three cornered fight
for the president generalship has
reached a warm pitch.
BY special injunctions against the
distribution of campaign literature on
the floor and other precautions the
general sessions were protected from
too jealous electioneering tactics. The
annual address by Mrs. George May
nard Miner of Connecticut, the retir-
ing president general marked the
morning session program, while the
afternoon program was occupied
chiefly with the reports of national
officers.
Secretary Hughes, Ambassador JUS
serand of France and Sir Auckland
Geddes, the British ambassador. were
listed to address the convention to-
night.
The three candidates in the fore
front of the race to succeed Mrs.
Miner are Mrs. Wallace w. Hanger Of
Washington, Mrs. Anthony Wayne
Cook of Pennsylvania and Mrs. Will
liam Cumming Story of New York.

new ENGLAND DEVELOPS
ADDITIONAL WATER POWER
Acutcness OF Coal Supply Is Reason
Hut This Section still Is Behind
New York.

New Haven, April 16.--Water pow
er plants are being developed in New
England and New York state as re-
suit OF the acuteness OF the coal situa-
ton, Arthur T. Stafford of Lowell,
Mass. hydraulic engineer, told Yale
men who are taking course In water
conservation today. The production
OF electricity in New York state in
ten years has doubled while use OF
coal increased only 30 per cent. New
England has doubled her water pow
er in ten years, through construction
of hydro stations OF the Central
Maine Power Co., the New England
Power Co., Turner Falls Power and
Electric Co. and developments at
Lowell, Lawrence and Holyoke, Mass,
and Manchester, N. II. New York state
Is developing water power from the
barge canal and Henry Ford is max
ing n development at the state dam
at Troy, n. y.
Engineer Stafford said that New
England although alive to the needs
of power, has been surpassed by de-
velopments at Niagara Falls on both
the American and Canadian sides, the
Mississippi river at Keokuk and the
high head developments of the Pa
cific coast. Formerly hydro cleo
trio development was made in ads
vance of transmission lines and a
market: now the transmission lines
often become the feeders for power
sold at wholesale by more than one
company. Like the railroads they are
reaching out in all directions, but for
power rather than for customers.

CHILD BURNED AND dashed
Foster Parents of Georgia Negro Cir
Arrested After Her Rescue.

Greenville, Ga, April 16.-After be-
ing tortured with hot irons and whip
ped with a lash until she could hardly
stand. 11-year- old Hattie May Rosser,
negro girl, was rescued last night
by white people and brought to this
city. Today in the city court she ac-
cused her foster parents of the crime.
Hattie May. who appears to be as
obedient as any girl of her age, is now
in the hands of Judge M. q. O'Neil of
the Ordinary's court. She says that
her punishment has been going. on for
nearly a year, because she was IN
able to do the volume of work that
her foster parents, Bishop and Nanny
Rosser, negroes, thought she should.
The Rossers own farm in this coun-
ty.
The child's screams were heard by
white people last night. They were
so terrifying that investigation was
made, with the result that both the
Rossers were taken into custody on
charges of assault and battery and the
child was brought here. Women
designated by the Ordinary to ex-
anime the child reported that her
body Is SCARED by burns and lash
marks from her neck to her feet.
