WEIGTH CROWN FROM JACKIE
FIELDS. - - -

Detroit = (CNS.) - Young Jack
Thompson, the dark-skinned lad
from Oakland, Calf, took jackie
Fields welterweight crown from him
in a slashing 15-round battle here
Friday night.
Fields, twice victorious over
Thompson in 10-round engagements
was a top-heavy favorite to either
win by knockout or get the verdict.
They were betting as much as z
to l on Fields but Thompson won ten
cut of the Is rounds; while three
went to Fields and two were counted
as even.
The decision met the approval of
the $4,000 persons present at the
fight. At the end Of the fifteen
round struggle, referee (Slim) Nc
Clelland promptly raised Thompson's
hand as the new champion. Thomp-
son is the first Negro to gain the
welterweight crown within the last
20 years. Joe Malcott held the tt
tie in 1901.

STRANGE HAPPENINGS.
H. E. Barnett

Two pilgrims of the highway,
Straight on their journey bent,
With ba ed thoughts confusing,
Their souls within them rent.
The tragic death of Jesus,
Filled them with startling fears
Shocked by his awful ending,
Their eyes were athed IN tears.
His. life's career and service,
And now the first Of Easter
The countryside had learned;
Their hearts for Jesus yearned.
They feared the Masters work
had failed;
The disciples fled aside;
The hated of Rome remained
To rule with pomp and pride.
Men from the tomb had taken
The ody of the Lord:
And to His faithful followers,
They left not sign nor word.
Distressed and dispirited,
Their souls within them bled,
And felt His noble teachings
Were like Himself, now dead.
Thus deeply lost in sorrow,
They sojourned on their way
Which marked that cruel day!
Discussing the crucifixion
When suddenl yappeared
A stranger at their side,
And questioned why their sadness;
Their sorrows to confide
What! surprised, the pilgrims
asked:
cart thou only a stranger
In Jerusalem, and know'st not
Te' end of Him born in man.
ger?"
To them, the logic of events,
Disclosed He to their view;
And, of Christ's ministry,
He told them what he knew.
Unfolded He his mission,
His own most precious life;
The story, the resurrection,
The victory nthe strife.
Of all that He had wrought,
So vivid the description
Their hearts now burned within
them,
AS He the pilgrims taught.
AS near they now the village
And Emmaus drew in sight,
The stranger here made known
Himself
And left them in His flight.
The amazing truth they learned
From One they thought was
dead;
1t gave them strength to trust
Him;
For them His blood was shed.
