who played a considerably great role
in the movement. 1t was to be mo-
ticed that those comrades tried to
avoid Lenin's speeches, because they
knew that he will come out the vic
tor; it was so simple, because Lenin
with his innate simplicity, sound To-
gic, and frankness in expressing opin-
ions, has always won the confidence
of the masses.
From that time on Lenin's person
atty interested me very much. l
wanted to know his personal life.
And this not out of curiosity, but be-
cause the question of socialistic ethics
Of socialistic culture, of revolutionary
morals has then especially occupied
my mind.
Being torn off the living reality Of
Russia, alone in strange lands, one
gives himself to self-analysis, espe-
cially, when the emigrant life was col
orless and had no other interest in
life but introspection. Everyday oc-
currences irritated me, aroused in me
skeptical thoughts and moods. This
was also a period of reaction, every
body was disappointed, and, therefore,
was exceptionally sensitive to moral
zation.
No wonder, therefore, that after all
have experienced with Plechanov, |
should become interested in the pri-
rate life of Lenin.

imagined that with Lenin things
are in some instances still worse.
Firstly, had even those, who hated
him. to admit. that in interpretations
of Marxism and in general knowledge,
Lenin was not inferior to Plechanov.
All, without exception, have thought
them both the greatest opponents of
Russian Marxism, the great figures in
the international workers movement.
1t was known that Lenin and Plecha.
nov were discussed in ole breath
everywhere, that they were ranked
on the same footing with such per-
sonalities as August Bebel and Jaures.
So Lenin is probably assuming airs
and vainly proud of himself. Sec
ondly, the opinion was prevalent that
Lenin is in general cespot, fist, ;
one whom nobody dared to contradict
SO he surely makes you fear him.
But, to my great amazement, when
I was in Geneva to lecture delivered
by Lenin, at once felt the difference
of atmosphere between then and now.

The Story of a RevoIutionist.

Dear Juniors II am going to
tell short story of a revolution
list of nearly two thousand years
ago. His name was Spartacus.
lie was Greek by birth and when
the Romans came to Greece he
was captured and brought to
Rome to fight as a gladiator,
while his mother and father were
murdered. The Romans made a
fighter of him so that he would
supply them with what they con-
sidered amusement.
Once when Spartacus was in the
arena fighting, with other glad
iators he discovered that he had
fought with his best friend and
killed him. From that time on he
hated the Romans worse than
ever.
One day he called the gladia-
tors together, told them of his ex-
periences, and said that that night
they should escape and become
free men, as they rightfully were.
They consented and that night es-
capped and went to the crater of an
extinct volcano.
The Romans did not know
where their slaves had gone until
one of the gladiators betrayed
Spartacus and the rest. The Ro
man army marched on to the
crater and a fierce battle took
Iplace.
The gladiators fought with all
their might for they had nothing
to lose and everything to gain
while the Romans fought for their
slaves. But the great number Of
Romans against such a small but
brave band Of revolutionists was
very unequal and Spartacus was
hopelessly defeated.
Before the Romans could reaci
him, Spartacus killed his horst
and then himself saying that ever
his horse was to good for the Ro
mans. The Romans took all tn,
lrevolutionists they could get ant
crucified them on one of the mar
roads Of Rome. Spartacus bravel,
died a real revolutionist. And 81

DELANEY Makes Hit BY
WAY HE STOPS TIGER FLOWERS
In big BOUT in GOTHAM RING

Copyright, 1925, Casper Tribune)
NEW YORK, Jan 20.-By now It
has dawned on the minus of the big
promoters that this Oville Chapde-
laine, otherwise known as Jack De-
laney. of Bridgeport. Conn. is a
middleweight Of some considerable
ability. There is an earnest plot on
foot to have this young man meet
Harry Greb, the middleweight cham
pion. at some date to be fixed. But
If Greb maintains the attitude he
has taken toward Delaney In the
past year. It will take n lot of decker.
ing to get him In the ring with Jack.
Greb. it would seem. is smarter
than most people. He was ducking
Delaney at a time when everyone
wondered why he was so elusive In
his attitude.
The crowd that saw Tiger Flowers
run into Delaney's right fist at the
Madison Square Garden Friday eve

now have n higher opinion of the
middleweight kings judgment than
they did have.
1t was a big fight night at the
Garden, n OF those typical metro
politan fight nights when from all
strata of society come those who
like to see a good fight. They were
turning 'em away half an hour be-
fore the first bout started and the
interior of the Garden by the time
Delaney and Flowers climbed
through the ropes was bulging from
the ground floor to the roof with
nearly $4,000 spectators.
Interest was keen and the general
belief was that the tigerish scrap
per from Dixie would cut his white
opponent into strips and ribbons.
But this should be recorded-not

Chance. Not long after that he had
a disagreement with Murphy. owner
Of the Chicago team, and went else
where. He managed teams In the
American league-New York and
Boston, but he was not successful
with either OF them because he did
not have tho players necessary to

Chance was n catcher when he
