Murphy, king of the Grand Cir cuit drivers who has cleared up everything at Lexington and is now preparing to do the same at Atlanta. It is predicted that the Glen Cove and Poughkeepsie reinsman will finish the season, with seventh win ning bracelets, which will set a rec ord that may never be equaled. His 63 is already a record on the Grand Circuit, the previous high mark beV ing -46 or thereabouts. Murphy won two races at Columbus with Petrex and gave Eiuland his first defeat over a mile track with Royal Mac. He bids fair to top his record of money winnings of $116,370 for a season, made in 1915 by a long mar gin. This, however, is only a tithe of his enormous earnings, which are estimated at an even million dollars. Murphy has made this in the brief time of fifteen years on the trotting turf. During-that time he has won every established trotting fixture in this country, several of them many times. He has driven nine times to victory in the Kentucky Futurity. He has won the Chamber of Com merce classic, the M. & .M., the Tennessee, Transylvania, Charter Oak, Hotel Hartraan. Hoster Colum bus. Paper Mills, Michigan. Empire State.

The.teacher instead of conversing was handing out the old stuff: "Cette fenune a cinq doigts a sa main gauche" tthat woman has five lingers on her left hand), and "II a deux donzaines de plumes sur cette table" (there are two dozen pens on the table). And then came mysterious dis tracting equations. triumphs of grammatical*metaphysics, such, for instance, as this: "Le cheval le rnon onclfe est aussi beau que le jardin de votre grandmere" (my uncle's horse is as beautiful as your grandmother's garden). Crimes of Nero! Can't the French do better than this. Speaking of Paris; Paris, Missouri, the local paper there says that home folks of this neighborhood raise their boys to be soldiers, relating: "Tradi tion has it that in his day Haitz Young was the best man in Jlonroe county. He used to challenge all comers in a catch-as-catch-can bout, but times have changed. One day last week his 15-year-old son Newton challenged him to a round with the gloves- "He had been foolin' with the things all summer." said Heitz, "but I didn't pay much attention to hint. 'I don't need the gloves, son.' I said, and made for him to get him off his legs. I don't know how it happened, but my ribs are in bad shape. Haven't been able to do much since. Couldn't even get near him, and thought I was a man. I guess it must be what they call 'science.' Any how, no more bouts with that hoy. He's too much for his pap."

And Murphy is not yet 4 5 years old. Asked on one occasion to defina, the methods that enabled him to so far outstrip his competitors, his la conic reply was: "I feed them, I water them and I drive them like the dickens." Commenting on his terse exposi tion, a writer in the Trotter and Pacer said: "Exceedingly simply, but involving a lot of significance, these few short words comprehended the alpha and ontega of Murphy's success. His horses are well fed and, properly watered. Not an animal in his stable fails to come under his inspection every day. Not "an em-, ploye escapes his vigilant eye at all: times.

Wo don't like that, because it recog nizes a virtue in all boxing bouts and incipient prizeilghts, with which the country is blighted. There are plenty of other athletic •xercises without resorting to one that encourages the pugilistic ten dencies of the youth. There is nothing in it that is elevating; nothing that uplifts and honors the associations of youth- It really introduces into a boy's life an am bition to .be a flst-flghter, which may finally develop into a profes sional boxing career. It is to be regretted that the government ex tends the slightest favor to this innovation upon real edueation. It is an educational subterfuge that no true boy should he forced into. Its associations and influences will not contribute to the good charac ter AKa rqilitary education. It houldT>e cut out.
