Dempsey perspired freely, despite a
chill wind that swept through the
open Sides Of the building,
The champion kept his punches In
restraint. permitting his sparring
partners to do most Of the leading,
while he weaved In and out Of range
with bobbing crouch. Whenever
Dempsey thought his sparring mates
were landing too frequently he would
pile them into the ropes and slow
them UP with hooks to the body or a
| short right CROSS to the chin.
The champion. while boxing Wells,
gave an indication Of what Gibbons
| may expect II he attempts to box at
long range. That was rushing Wells
to the ropes and forcing the Britisher
to lean back over the hempen bar
rters while he hooked short right and
left swings to the body.

LONDON, March 9.-Europe's
economic troubles are the fault OF
governments, not business men.
And their solution lies In the
removal Of the governmental heel
from the neck Of the Russians,
coupled with the restoration of

the restoration of party exchange.

George declared, there has been no

been done has been done by govern

"The time has come when we
should bend our efforts to get the
governments to let business alone,
he added. The situation of the
world is indeed grave, and am
convinced that the Continent will
never get on the right track except
by England's example. 1t is. up to
us to get the trade of the world

1.-THE greatest cause of unemploy-
ment and economic troubles In the
world is lack of confidence. But
who could have confidence with cur
rencies falling as they have been?
The reason for the fall Of French
exchanges is that business men,
alarmed at the Ruhr venture, sent
their gold to London"
Sir George thinks the solution of
European financial problems pos
sible, only by the restoration Of the
gold standard for England, followed
by the upbuilding of the nations
gold reserve.
II do not think that British gold
will flow out of the country through

Pastor of Fruitless Revival Be-

COLUMBIA, KY, March 9.-The
Rev. Joseph Woodbridge. a noun

gone on a hunger strike because
he has so far failed to obtain con-
'ersions during q revival he is
conducting here. After the sixth
day of his voluntary abstinence
from food. he said the. expected
his strike and prayers to bring an
ansWer from theaven, in the form of
conversions of sinners.
Woodridge's fruffless~ revival has
been going on two weeks. Large
audiences heard him preach but no
one hit the sawdust trail. !. He
further said: "In many places in
he Scriptures we read that answers
from on high have come to those
who fast and pray. This fast I
have entered is simply in keeping
with the practice of old. I have
tasted a number of times. Some
times I have had answers which
made me know my petitions have
been heard and fulfilled. At other
times l have had no answers. Then
have believed that failure was
due to insufficient faith. My pres
emit fast, hope, will not be long.

will have been served and I Will

Woodbridge conducted a hunger
strike nearly two years ago be.
cause his daughter, Della, nineteen
years old, would not heed his call
and join the church. He then was
holding revival at jamestown. He
pleaded with the girl night after
night from the pulpit, to no avail.
After he had tasted two weeks he
became so weak it was necessary

night, where he preached from a
cot while hundreds heard him.
Miss Woodbridge, school teacher,
refused to join the church, how.

PARIS THIEVES
ROB C|TY'S
PHONES
Automatic Collection Devices
Have to Be Guarded by
Police or Locked Up.

PARIS, March 9. - Chicago's
slickers may use lead slugs instead
of nickels In automatic telephones,
and New York's petty thieves may
plug up the coin return slots in
order to steal from the telephone
companies, but Paris robbers de-
vised other methods.
They stole one of the city's two
unguarded automatic telephones.
and the booth, situated in the Halles.
wholesale market place, had to be
closed indefinitely. awaiting the
manufacture of new apparatus.
The other unguarded automatic
phone is still in operation in the
subway station at the Palais Royal.
In the future, however. it will either
be guarded or the booth. will be
locked every night. !,
Automatic telephones are still so
new in Paris that they are q. cause
OF wonderment. They are studiouS-
who look upon them as too compli-
Gated for everyday use.
Small wonder, either. the auto.
mates are avoided. Directions for
using the phones are spread out
in red and black ink over immense
posters. They warn just what win
happen If certain button is pressed
and what will not happen II another
button is not pulled.
Telephone users have other tribu-
lations, too, one of the most trying
of which is that the subscribers
directory now in use is three years
old. The new directory. postponed
by the delay in the passing OF the
budget bill by the chamber Of de.
puties, will not appear for six more
months. the Paris press laYnents.
