"IN FOURTH ROUND Al Singer and Bud Taylor Will Probably Be Rematched New York, Feb. 9 UP—An unia. tentional foul blow, struck by Bu Taylor, has contrived to throw the current featherweight elimination tournament into a muddle. The foul, coming in the midst of a rally, ended Taylor's ten round battle with Young Al Singer, of New York's East Side, in the fourth round at Madison Square Garden last night. The blow dropped Singer to the canvas in agony and the ref- cree could do uothing but stop the fight and award the decision to Sing- er, In view of the uisutisfactory end- ing of a promising slugging match there is a possibility that the men will be re-matched. The bout had Leen planned as a means of develop- ing an opponent for Tony Canzoneri with the ultimate survivor to get a “shot” at the 126-pound crown now worn by Andre Routis of France. The fight was all even when Tay: lor's left hook, his best weapon, dropped into foul territory. Singer, « fast and clever boxer, had held his own with Taylor in the first three rounds. The East Sider earn- cd the edge in he mrst round when he clipped the Indianan on the chin with one terrific right and had him in distress at the bell. Taylor came back in the second round, spattered singer's body with a rain of left | liooks but took enough punishment in return to make tne round il cven, Singer's defense failed in the face of Taylor's pantherlike rushes in the third round and the middle westerner took the scssion by a shade. The fourth round was seconds old when the bout was stop- | ped. Singer, scaling 127 1-2, had a pound and a half advantage in the welghts.

No amount of |grooming can subdue his shagey | brown coat, and he's spry, too, for an old fellow. Cap is more than |18 years old. He has learned English well. He gravely escorts members of his family to store or church or theater {—but does not enter. And he re- | turns afterwarl to see them home. | All this Cap has learned, but he has | never learned to forget the war, [even though 10 years is a long time {in a dog's life. The horror of barbed wire and gas masks 1is still upon him, Although barpbed wire is used {hereabouts only to confine dairy | cattle, Cap refuses to go near a | wire fence. No amount of coaxing will induce him to approach one, for he still associates them with lcaden hail and sudden death. All the bitter memories of those days when Cap served with the French Ked Cross, braving shell-fire, ma- chine gun bullets and gas to bring |aid to his human comrades seem to |be roused 4t such a time. Cap long since has grown a full {crop of hair on the bald spot at the Lack of his head where the strap of his gas mask fitted. DBut he will never forget the assoclations of these symbols of war. When one of Mr. Shea's sons |brought home a gas mask as a relic, |10 years after the war, Cap flew linto a sudden rage. He pounced upon the mask and, before anyone could stop him, tore the hated thing to shreds. Cap has one weakness and per- haps it's due to one of the few pleasant memories of the war-time years. He Is inordinately fond of doughnuts. Intriguing and various are his methods of wheedling this delicacy from members of the household.

MOM =THIG 1§ A S OUE RN 7 o) POrT: 0 S Y Authorities have been seeking the pilot, Who of their intention to pass rapidly " GENERAL SETTLES T0 WORK Legislature Sets Its Eyes This Woek on Adjournment Hartford, Feb. 9 UM—The general assembly this week entered upon the road of hard work which leads to final adjournment, an objective always pointed out at the opening of a session as one which should be reached as rapidly as possible. Attention was called to the desir- ability of reaching this objective by May 1 by Governor John H. Trum- bull at the McKinley club dinner Thursday night and he took occa- sion to point out one reason why it could be reached od that date, and that was that through the state board of finance and control the greater portion of the work of the appropriation committee had been done. Both Senator Peasley and Mr. Johnson, majority leaders in the senate and house respectively, have opportunity in the opinion of veter- ans, to make the legislature move faster than ever before. The two factors are that Friday sesslons can be held and business done because members have the incentive to come to Hartford on that day as there is penny and dollar profit in their travel allowance, and secondly, the appropriation committee has less work to do on the budget for the next two years than any other com- mittee had. Previous Sesslons In many past sessions executive business in the last month used to mark time while the appropriation committee worked on its bill of ap- propriations that being before the days of & ematized budget. After .the big appropriation bill was in, {business used to speed up and & great jam of reports come in. The finance committee usually has had its plan of revenue ralsing well worked out long before the ap- propriation committee has figured how much money would be needed to run the state in the biennjum and was ready with bills to be adopted on the heels of appropria- tion bills. Governor Trumbull knows the working out of this end of legisla- | tive business as he twice was senate chalrman of the finance committee | and each session he would have! been ready wecks earlier had the |other committees speeded up. | This was true also of Senator Frederick C. Walcott when he was chairman of the finance committee. Few Bills Considered Committee work the past week | touched only the fringe of the con- | tents of bill boxes. The judiclary committes went ahead and quickly disposed of judgeship resolutions | where there were no contests over nominees. The bulletin next week will see | most of the committees well dated ahead for hearings, and outstanding will be the assignment for Febru- ary 20, of the bills which Would} provide for shortening of the hours | |of labor. The early hearing on these bills has taken the labor organizations by surprise, it is understood, as they (had looked for hearings in March. Today, word was sent to secretaries jof various labor bodies calling at- tention to the February 20 date, ;and requesting that legislative com- mittees of such bodies be urged to | prepare for the hearing. | Financlal interests of the state have circularized business men, it {is understood, asking that interest |be taken in legislative bills which |affect taxation. “Eternal vigilance on the part of the tax payer"” is his only sure protection the circular says which points or{ the danger there might be in laying a tax on intangible personal property includ- ing corporate stocks on a certain definite basis.

This will probably result in enough business coming into each branch in the way of reports either or favorable to hold them together for more than the customary 10 or 15 minutes dally. The New Haven county meeting Tuesday will draw attention eonce again to jail factory problems of the county and legislators will take more than ordinary interest in this because with the bills to provide vocational training at the state prison for the younger inmates there will be much to be heard upon the effect of the bill passed by con- |gress which it has been predicted, will take away an interstate market for goods produced at the state prison. To keep the prison popu- lation employed for their mental and physical benefit if factory work should cease it has been proposed by some to introduce vocational training on a wider scope than at present.

Jewelry itself had been mod- ernized. More: » the flashing facets of cut jewels formed by prisms in all their angular and slanting reflections, synchronize perfectly with the trends of mod- ern art. For a while at least, the days of fancy filigreed gold and silver and gem-encrusted jewelry are over. Madame now must wear big clear stones set in cold platinum, ree- tangles, cubes, triangles, in ame- thyst, emerald, aquamarine, rubles and diamonds. There are many points and acute angles in the new | jewelry. There are flat surfaces that scintillate lights in the manner of a cubist painting. Sheer elegance calls for simplicity defined by clear cut lines . & smooth sable man- tcan a neat felt hat with a triang- ular pin, a bracelet in alternating platinum and crystal rectangles, an merald sot, lengthwise along two Iternating semi-circles, and brooch of brilliants set in the form of a tiny sailing yacht or the helmet of a knight at arms . . . such is the modish Parisienne of today. It was the Exposition of Decora- 'tive Arts in 1925 that brought 1 I'M SURE THAT WHEN MY APPLE DUMPLING GOES HE DONE? THEY WAS TH' HECK OUTTA MY SCORE! EVERY.DAY I HAVE ONE HOLE THAT RUINS ME! DERNED IF I KIN REMEMBER IF IT WAS ELEVEN ER MY CADDY COUNTEDMY the transformation of jow- elry. Modern art was followed in the same trends that we ®ee in architecture, in interior decoration, and in furniture. The mew jewelry started with u Gitane or so-called Gipsy Bracelet. It was set with big stonea, usually jado or semi-precious pleces, and anywhere from a half inch to two inches wide. Its succeas was im. mediate and now the Gitane is ex- preased in even bolder forms. Modern jewelry, to quote a prom- inent Paris designer is inspired by the exciting and rapidly moving pace of present day life. He says “Modern jewelry is inspired by our new enthus'asms, it has a certain coquetry with Negro art, with pre. colombian arts, its ins @ tion is derived from cubism, and s mani- festations are also a%‘ected by the marvelous technique realized by the Perslans and the Chinese. “The jewelry of today 1 =our- ished by the life we live, the au. tomobile wheele, the aeroplane, the radio, sport and a thousand evi- dences of modern events.” COFFEE FAZENDAS AGLOW WITH COLOR Brazil Fields Turn Green as New Crop Grows Campinas, State of S8ao Paule, Brazil, Feb. 9 UM—Brazil's countless millions of coffee irees are now bright with the little green berries which will be picked next July, dried, shelled, and converted into teh coffee bean of commerce, Coffee plantations -in the state of 8ao Paulo, which produces more than half of the Brazilian coffee crop, have something of the appear- ance of Jowa and Illinois cornfields. ‘The trees, four in a group, are planted in rows at inte s of about twelve feet. These rows run on endlessly over gently rolling hills of soil that is redder than the red hills of Georgila. Most of the coffee fazendas have an lmmense acreage. Individual owners have as many as 4,000,000 trees. Where the rallways run through a rolling prairie country it is not unusual for a train to pass for hours through coffee fields. Many of the estates have their own small railways to handle their crop, Strangely enough to North Amer- ican eyes, 1Indiun corn often is planted between the rows of coffee trees. It affords shade which pre- vents grass from growing among the rows and provides feed for the small, sleek mules that constitute motive power for the fazendas Most of the large coffee planta- tions keep their trees cut to a height of about 12 feet, and the four trunks standing together pro- vide a compact mass of dark green leaves which give a heavy shade to the berries growing along their branches. At this season it is im- possible to see the little green ber- ries at any distance. Like apple trees in the United Stuates, coffee trees seem to do best on gently rolling land which drains well, and on hillsides which are capable of cultivation. Coffee trees eeldom appear {n bottomlands that are not high above water courses. While coffee 1is grown near sea level In Brazil, the great cstates arc practically all on plateaus nt least 2,000 feet high, where the cooler climate is more favorable to development of the crop. Bantos, the chief port of the state of 8a0 Paulo, handles 60 per cent of Brazil's coffee crop. The coffeu goes first to Sao Paulo, the state's capital and railway center, and then is shipped down to sea level at Bantos over a cable rallway which drops 2,700 feet within a dis- tance of seven miles. Recently a tompany was organ- ized in the Rouyn gold field of Que- bec with planes at a central point avallable for trips to mines or for special prospecting parties into dis- tant sections.
