Schmeling Kept I'm Trim.

COMING up to the Baer encounter,
Jimmy had two grand fights
behind him, those against Art Lasky
and John Henry Lewis. Appearing
in the ring against Schmeling, he
will have no background of accom-
plishment over a period of more than
II months, in which his activity had
been confined to refereeing boxing
and wrestling bouts and appearing in
exhibitions.
Schmeling, on the other hand, has
met and defeated Pauline Uzcudun,
Steve Hamas and Joe Louis all within
the year-10, II and rounds, re-
spectively; 81 rounds in all-which
is sufficient preparation for a cham
pionship battle to satisfy any one.

FATAL ACCIDENTS
in 1896 GREATER
Homicide Rate Drops l9
Per Cent and May Hit
New Record Low

New York, N. Y. - Despite an in
crease In the number Of fatal acci-
dents occurring in the first ten
months Of 1885, as compared with
1885, the cumulative death rate
among the 100000 Industrial
policyholders Of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company had de-
clined by the end Of October to q
point nearly equalling the all-ttme
low record established In 1885, for
the same ten-month period, accord
ing to statisticiars Of the insurance
company.
Comparison Of the change in the
death rate, in 1896, In this large
insured group, with that In the gen.
eral population Of SO large cities,
shows UP favorably for the insured,
who registered an increase of only
about one per cent, whereas the
group Of SO cities showed o mortal
ity increase Of more than seven per
cent. The decline in the tuberculosis
death rate continued throughout
the 10-month period, while such
favorable mortality developed in the
case Of typhoid fever, measles, scar
let fever, whooping cough and 'diph-
liberia that, unless unexpected OUT
breaks occur, the death rates for all
Of these diseases are expected to at
tain for the entire year Of 1895 the
lowest points ever experienced by
the policyholders.
The homicide rate has dropped 10
percent in O year and may establish
a record low point by the end Of 1895.
while there have been fewer suicides
per 100000 lives Of policyholdersl ex-
posed than In any year since 1929.
The cancer death rate for the 10
month period was 35 per cent lower
than 1t was at the end Of october,
1885, while a decline Of 10 per cent
occurred in the death rate for dis
eases incidental TO pregnancy.
The year-to-date death rate for
the industrial policyholders declined
from 8.6 per 1000 at the end Of
to IS at the end Of Oc-
tober, which compares not unfavor-

ably with the record low rate Of 8.4
per 1000 established at the end OF
the 10-month period in 1885.
With respect TO fatal accidents.
the statisticians say:
More fatal accidents have &C.
Cured during the first 10 months OF
the current year than during the
like period Of 1895. Information Is
not now at hand TO determine
whether the increase II due to rise
In Industrial accidents or in acct
dents In the home, or In both. mas
much as many more people have
been employed In industry this year
than in 1885, rise in Industrial ac-
cidents may well have occurred.
This, however, is certain: that the
increase in total accidents Is not
due to a rise in automobile fatali-
ties, for the cumulative death rate
from such fatalities among Metro
politan Industrial policyholders at
the end of 10 months Is only 1911 per
100000, as compared with 1876 at the
end OF October, 1895"

Tribute To Late
Rev. William Judge

A tribute TO the scholarly at

ter Of the late Rev. william J.
Judge, former pastor Of at.

and st. John Of the Cross, Mid
dlebury, appears In the current
issue Of the Catholic Transcript.
Referen.e Is made TO the lives
Of the two brothers, Father
Judge and late Rev. Matthew
Judge. The editorial comment
read as follows:
The Rev. william J. Judge, who
died ON the operating table 1T .
Hartford sanltorium ON Tuesday,
had been I'm failing health since
the death Of his brother, Father
Mathew Judge three years ago.
United for over fifty years, the
rude and ghastly separation was
more than that most devoted and
heart-giving brother could stand.
IL will be remembered that the
Fathers Judge were on vacation
together, and that with the view
Of winning back the health Of the
elder.
Instead Of regaining his lost
strength, Father Mathew Judge
passed away on shlpboard. The
blow was too cruel for him that
was left He Travelled home with
the remains. Those who met him
1T the 0bsequles agreed that he
would have preferred, rs he him
self said, to be buried with his
departed brother. The light Of
his life had gone out His re-
naming years were joyless and
dreary-a sad ending for one that
could count over thirty years Of
faithful priestly labor. His cour-
age and his health were gone. The
Anal summons cost him no
anxiety.
Rev. william Judge was .
man Of exceptional intellect. His
success In studies challenged the
admiration Of all. His priestIy
years were spent rather apart
from his fellow priests. He sought
the companionship Of his rev.
erend and revered brother and
was satisfied. And 70 IL came
that the passing Of the one left
the other alone, sad, and almost
helpless.
For fifteen years Rev. william
Judge served as curate, 1aboring
near the center Of the diocese.
He served six years I'm each Of
three parishes, two Immediately
outside Of Waterbury and one In
that city. His tenure Of office
I'm Manchester was short and
and troubled. He was unable to
put forth his best efforts and the
members Of his immediate flock
could not appreciate either his
character or his finer qualities Of
mind and heart
The wo=ld at large knew him
not. He n well remembered I'm
the cities and towns where he
Iabored, and I'm Hartford, his home
city. Indeed, the town In proud
70 number him among It's distin-
guished sons and brilliant alumni
Those who knew him in his stu.
dent years were mot prepared TO
behold him seeking seclusi0n as
one who seemed tired Of the
bright things that the earth has
to bestow. They and many 9TH
ers will beseech the Father Of
Mercy that the two brothers 70
united in this world will speedily
become one again in the kingdom
Of the just made perfect.
