Qe eee LEMON JUICE 1S A SKIN WHITENER ND A BEAUTIFIER Prepare a quarter pint of beauty lotion at about the cost of a small jar of cold cream. At the cost of a smal! jar of ordi- nary cold cream one can prepare a full quarter pint of the most wonder- ful lemon skin bleach, skin softener and complexion beautifier, by squeez- ing the juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white. Care should be taken to strain the juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months. I[t really will bleach and re- move such blemishes as pimples, freckles and tan and is the ideal skin softener, smoothener and beautifier which absorbs readily and is not sticky or greasy. : Just try it!. Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make up a quarter pint of this harm- less Jemon lotion and apply it daily to the face, neck, arms and hands.

Hodgkins, who arrived in St. Louis today from Oukland, Cal.,. believes that a man who calls himself Charles Clark, arrested here 2 week ago, is Frank Smith who killed John Marcovich, wealthy res- fuurant proprietor, in that city, on Apr‘. 1%, 1907. Clark, he says, answers Smith's de- scription, and photographs of him. taken since his arrest and sent to Oakland have been identified by nine persons who knew Smith. Six others to whon: ihe photographs were shown were not certain, Information given by a mary who gave led to the ar- rest of Clark. of Police of Oakland that he knew where Smith was. He requested that a reply be fent to the general delivery, St. Louis. The Oakland Chief wrote as directed and asked Miller to go to the St. Louis police. Miller did so and told them Smith was working as an attend ant at the Friseo Hospital under the name of Clark. He was arrested. Mil- ler disappeared. Clark denies that he is Smith. says his home is in Texas, that he left there 20 years ago and has been over the country, but has never been at Oakland. He says he was in New Orleans at the Mardi Gras in April, 1907. Hodgkins says Smith's: descrip- tion fits Clark and he will take him to Oakland. Smith was employed in a restaurant in Oakland. He was accused by the nead waiter of rccketing a $ gold piece gi\s- en to him to buy Wine and was lis- charged. He appealed to Marcovich, cne of the propr:etors, wird refused. to inter- fere. The rext afternoon he entered the restaurant, where Marcovich and his wife were seated at a table, and fired fivey shots into Marcovich’'s back, killing him. Smith’s History Traced. The authorities, history, learned that man in Texas, escaped, joined the army, was sent to the Philippines, where he and a Sergeant, in a gam- tiling row with Filipinos, killed sev- eral. A few days tater the Serweant was mysteriously kilied and Smith disappeared. After the murder*of Marcovich a body wWas taken from a river near Oakland which was identified as Emith’s. Another report was that Smith was killed in Manilla, before the Marcovich killing. Two vears after the Marcovich killing &@ suspect was arrested in Montana. He_ es- tablished an alidi.

The motormen and conductors of the East St. Louis & Suburban Railway Co. trolley system today delivered an ultimatum to D. E. Parsons, the com- pany’s general manager, that they will go on a strike at 5 a. m. tomorrow unless a wage agreement is reached before that hour. Conferences were expected to be held this afternoon and tonfght in an effort to avert the strike. The men had a meeting last night. Shortly before its adjournment at 2 a. m. they voted to make tomorrow morning the time limit of further negotiations with the com- Pany. Men employed on the* city lines oper- ated by the company now receivé 27 cents an hour. They are asking for an increase to 38 cents an hour. The men operating cars on the company's ex- tensive suourban system are receiving 28 cents an hour and are asking for 43 cents, Company’s Offer to Men. The company contends these demands are excessive. It has offered to raise the pay of all motormen and conductors to 33 cents an hour and to start newly employed men at 27 cents an’ hour and increase this pay at regular intervals until the new men are making as much as the old. Objecting to anv sliding scale ar- rangement, the men are demanding a flat increase, and they have refused to submit the question to arbitration on any other basis. Posatbie Hiring of Women. The possible employment of women as motormen and condut¢tors also has entered into the controversy. Real- izing that it might be necessary to employ women if the war depletes the ranks of men workers, the company offered to leave this possibility to ar- bitration, including the question as to what salary should be paid to the women if it should become necessary, but they insisted that in that event the women should be paid the same salary as the men. The controversy between the men and the company has been under way since May 1, when @® tWo-year salary agree- ment expired. Many conferences have been held and union representatives have come here from other cities to aid th men in winning their point.

JAPAN DOES NOT CONTEMPLATE SENDING TROOPS TO RUSSIA Tokio Foreign Office Says Russia's Need Is for Munitions and Sup- plies, Not Men. TOKIO, May 31.—The Foreign Of- fice has informed. the Associated Press there-is no truth in the report that Japan is to dispatch troops to Russia to reinforce the Russian army. It is stated that Russia does not need men, but munitions and sup- plies. In reply to a question as to whether the Japanese naval forces in the Med- iterranean would be strengthened it was said it would be premature to discuss that, but that generally speak- ing Japan would do everything in her power to co-operate with the al- lies. Prof. Boris Bakhmetieff, the newly appointed Russian Ambassador to the United States, was the guest of honor at a dinner given by George Post Wheeler, American Charge d’Af- faires. Prof. Bakhmetieff later con- tinued his journey to Washington.

BRITISH FRONT IN FRANCE, May %1.—The German Government continues tu fill the air with wireless propaganca against the British, virtually ignoring «ll the other allies, including the United States. The trench version in the Arras dia- trict of Emperor Wi'liam’s recent speech was to the effect that no- British prisoners should be taken; that the Ger- mans should hate all the English and if they could not avoid taking some prisoners they were to treat them with the greatest severity. Emperor William was at Douai and at Tournai, May 23, and made speeches at both places. SOLDIERS PARTICIPATE IN DISORDERS IN BARCELONA MADRID.

At that time France was pressed for trained men and supplies and the Britiso army was not yet toobilized. Without Italy's action the Germans probably would haye entered Paris. “Similarly Italy's entrance into the war in May. 1915, tremendously aided the retreating and disorganized Russian armies and created such a diversion as to save Russia from beffig reduced to impotence. “If Italy had been inspired na the lust of conquest she could eagily have joined with. Germany, whose victory would have. been tremendously facilitated by Italy's intervention. But Italy could not make herself party to the aggression of Austria upon Servia or aid in a war featured by the invasion of Belgium. Italy could not join the two imperial dynasties which dreamed of world dom- ination on the principle that might makes right. ‘“jtaly’s sacrifice in this war has been ulmost staggering. We now have 4,0,.- 0 men under arms. Our front is 540 kilometers (334.8 miles) long, sreater than the whole French and Beigian front. Every yard we have conquered has cost us terribly. “Some of our heavy guns are fishting on peaks 9600 feet high. Our roads and supply lines in many cases have been | cut through solid ice. A whole new human center has been built up in the most inaccessible part of the Alp:. “This must be the last war. Nations cannot in the future squander ali their money on military preparedness." The Italian mission will visit the House of Representatives at noon to- morrow. HELD ON CHARGE OF STEALING SHOES VALUED AT NEARLY $5000 Watchmen at Factory Arrested by Detectives Who Follow Woman to Place. Detectives who last night follcwed a woman from her West End home to the fvetory of Johnson, Stephens & Shinkle Shoe Co., 2208 Chestnut street, arrested Harry Burrichter, 2, of 1108 St. Louis avenie, for 16 months watchman of the factory, on charges of having stolen slces valued at nearly $5000. For several months, the company reportéd to the police, high grade shoes have been missing from stock. Detectives several nights ago saw Elsie Vernon and Sadie Manning of 2214 Pine street, knock on a door of the factory. The police saw Burrich- ter talk to them and when they walked away, they were questioned. They said they had gone to the fac- tory, according to the police, to try to buy shoes from Burrichter.

ON BEING BEAUTIFUL All are agreed on one point-—-no woman can be beautiful or even good looking unless her complexion is perfect, and the only way to have a plump, smooth face and neck, free from wrinkles and with healthy color is to care for the skin by giving it proper nourishment and food.

Usit supplies just the elements the wrinkled, dry, faded skin requires. It banishes wrinkles, the natural color and smooth; ness come back. It is a splendid treat- ment also for freckles, Sg gen and many forms of eczema. made of purest nut-oils, is Sinettate: “pertumed nd Golishthuly clean.

ALON-8S FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 1, 1917. we wanting in co-operation, inspired by dis- cretion and experience, in order succeas- fully to overcome the difficulties which until then will confront us. “The demand of the present mun:ent is for the full exertion of all the energies in the state. But also we must roi neg- lect to prepare ourselves for the sreat tasks which the future has in sture and to the happy solution of which the fu- ture prosperity of the state depcnds.”’ The Emperor then recalled the gigantic financial demands of the war, which he said the state was able to mect from its jown resources. He ‘declared that the | success of the sixth war loan was “the | best proof that the calculation of Ays- tria’s enemies, who perhaps thougst ‘hey could expect a change in the war situa- tion from the decline in the internal re- sources of the state, was doomed tv fail- ure.”’ Work of Restoration. The Emperor emphasized the necessity of directing the economic policy into the regulated channels and of creating an adequate state revenue, and then dwelt upon the necessity of restoring the devastated districts and providing for the dependents of fallen soldiers. He recalled the wonderful elasticity shown in home productions in wartime ind said: “Based on an economic compromise {with Hungary and on the commercial policy of the monarchy systematically | déveloped, al) our energies will have to be combined to render production more fruitful and cheaper.”’ The Emperor dwelt on his -solicitude | for the social welfare of the people and instanced various social measures, espi- cially the regulation of the work of women and youths. The middle classes, he said, also were hit by the war and needed the zealous solicitude of the state. The populace had exceeded the expectations of the state and should, therefore, not be disappointed by -—he state. In conclusion, the Emperor said: “I know that you will allow nothing but your conscience to influence your mandate, but you will only interpret rightly the voice of cénscience if you direct your eye constantly on the last-: ing purposes of the whole community. In the conscientious discharge of duty is to be found the best guarantee of the welfare of the empire and the surest guarantee of the rights of the peoples. The great time in which we tive has cre- ated a new sense of responsibility to the state and a new sense of relative valueg in politics. “I was a long time at the front and saw at. work the heroes who are défend- ing our frontier. Vivifxing Foree of Victory. “I know the vivifying force of their victorious spirit'and do not doubt that the moral rejuvenation which the fa- therland has drawn from the world war will penetrate our entire political life and be mirrored in the labors of the pup- ular assembly. ‘‘Always remember, however, that the strength of the monarchy is rooted nct the least in its historic associations a:d that only affectionate regard for it can maintain and develop its living strength. Therefore I hope you will cultivate a loyal sense of unity with the countries of my Hungarian holy crownland, whic has recently proved itself one of the principal supports of the monarchy. I hope you will promote unanimous collab- oration among the various races in the state, which all have a share in the glory of this war. ‘Honorable gentlemen of both houses, once again accept my cordial greetings. It is a great moment which brings a new ruler for tne first time face to face with the people’s representatives. May it be the beginning of a time of flour- ishing progress, a time of power cnd prestige for venerable Austria, and cf happiness and blessings for my beioved peoples. God grant it.” ap Workin~men’s Parade in, Vienna a Demonstration for Peace.

FORMER GERMAN OFFICER HELPS TO MARSHAL ALIENS Military Commands Call Men Into Line Who Were Seeking Barred Zone Permits in New ‘York. NEW YORK, June 1.—Thousands of aliens appeared yesterday at the office of United States Marshal McCarthy, seeking barred zone permits. They jammed the corridors, and the deputies were having their hands full alicmpt- 5 ing to preserve order when in elderly visitor “whd introduced himself as Sieg- fried Aal, a former officer of the First Bavarian Cavalry, tendered his as¢ist- ance. He is a citizen. “What can you do?’ the asked. “Watch!"’ the ex-officer exclaimed. ‘‘Most of these men have been soldiers. I'll show you how we'd handte ibem in Germany.” . Turning to the struggling crowd he shouted a few words of commani in his native tongue. The Germans quickly drew together in military fashion, four abreast, chests thrown out, their hands at their sides. “Vorwaerts!” shouted Aal,.and in per- fect step the men tramped down the hall to the courtrooms where a staff of volunteer clerks make out their ap- plication blanks. Mofe commands broke them into squads and distribated them in their proper places.

Gardner to get the police salary bill signed and while in conference over the deal conversed with the Governor by telephane. No one believes that Gov. Gardner had an ink- ling of the schemes of these men or that he would countenance improper practices of any sort, but he should see the necessity of vindicating his own administration and the Democratic party by 4 vigorous prosecution of the boodle inquiry. Representative Farris, who is under indictment, served the Governor well in helping to pass ad- ministration measures, but if he was connected with a boodle conspiracy to profit by the pas- sage of a bill, he served him ill. It is understood that Representative Farris has asked only one appointment, which will be grant- ed. This is the appointment of Tim Birmingham as Game and Fish Commissioner. The favor seems modest, but the Game and Fish Commissioner has a fund of $150,000 to expend and is authorized to set aside not less than 5 per cent of all the receipts of his office for the purchase of a State Park. How can Gov. Gardner dea] with an official under indictment for alleged participation in a boodle conspiracy? How can he, without scandal, appoint the nominee of such an official to office? Gov. Gardner should realize the gravity of the situation and of his own position. He should see the necessity not only of clearing his own administration from any possible taint of co-op- eration or sympathy with men charged with cor- rupt practices, but of taking every possible step to insure a thorough inquiry into boodle deals and a successful prosecution of all who have guilty connection therewith. The Governor should lead in the anti-boodle fight. = = " — ‘*‘BUSINESS AS USUAL.’’ The American idea of a Europe topsy-turvy be- cause of the war gets a rough jolt, now and then, when some item of news appears to show that even in the midst of war orderiy business goes right along. An instance is the news of the close of the fatr at Lyons, France. Of course, one knew a fair was going on. Amer- ican exhibitors knew it and were on the ground with the best wares they had to show. But some- how one thought it was a mere war-time diversion, a little side issue because there was not much else for anybody to do. Yet French business men went there and placed orders for some $80,000,000 = American firms. Third city in the country—second in its finan- cial and manufacturing interests—Lyons has gone on turning out silks and hats and books and glassware and perfumes and soaps and lace and potteries and chemicals, its principal products. And although the battle lines are not much far- ther away than Kansas City is from St. Louis, its people have been making so much money that they can spend some $40,000,000 buying American tools and machinery. There should be a message of cheer in this for those drooping and despondent ones who are wor- rying over what is to become of our own country now that we, too, are at war. a —_— - —_ The high-sounding phrase, “All men are cre- ated equal,” will be endowed with substance after June 5. — >. a Lr a a SPLENDID SPRING WHEAT PROSPECT. Wheat for July delivery declined to $1.94 yes- terday, a drop of more than 80 cents from -recent dates, when panic prices prevailed under un- restricted speculation. The decrease is attributed in part to the excellent yields of winter wheat in Texas, where harvesting has already begun, and in Oklahoma, where it is about to begin. These are states of small wheat production— probably. not more than 45,000,000 bushels in the two this year—and if conditions there have exerted any appreciable effect on the market, it is because ditions in the states with larger winter wheat areas. Of vastly greater importance, so far as legitimate rather than speculative influences have affected the market, are the prospects of spring wheat. The season opened with plans to enable this crop to make up for the expected shortage in the winter wheat crop. Handicaps in weather and soi] made seeding difficult, but the Jast of April saw an almost unprecedented acreage sown. Re- ports now concede to the crop in some states as high a percentage as 98 of average conditions. Moisture has been plentiful and 125,000,000 bush- and Minnesota each and generally a crop more wheat states. It is even charged that men interested in the 102, with a total tonnage of 300,000, or about 3000 tons each, are reported sunk by Teuton subma- rines. The figures assist us in visualizing the ex- tent of the disaster brought on.the Greek nation by the anomalous position of its Government dur- ing the war, but it must not be expected that they will have any effect on King Constantine. Greek people, but of immeasurable benefit to the Hohenzollern dynasty, will be maintained by Con- stantine, if it takes the last hooker under the ‘Greek flag. That in destroying nearly half of the Hellenist trading fleet the Hobenzollerns have shown an ingratitude rather more despicable than that accorded other nations that have maintained a bona fide neutrality is a matter of no conse- quence to the King. lern eccentricities, not to be regarded too critically in the royal circles of Greece.

The fundamental reason why citizens should par- ticipate in the parade of Tuesday next is that it will be a demonstration of popular support of the Government in the war and of popular ap- proval of the selective draft law, which assures 4D adequate fighting force on a basis of equality of service. The parade of citizens will signalize the day as a day of patriotic devotion in which all Americans will dedicate their lives and fortunes to the cause of America and democracy against ruthless bar- barism and autocracy. The outpouring of the people wili be a sign of popular loyalty and en- thusiasm. great demonstration is that it will. be reviewed: by the visitigg ad men from every point of the United States. St. Louis will parade in sight of the nation. The demonstration should be made an unprece- dented success. Citizens should answer the machi- nations of disloyalists and foreign propagand- ists who are seeking to paralyze the arm of America by proving their unqualified support of American war ends and war measures. Full opportunity should be given all who wish to participate. Employers who release their em- ployes for the parade will do a patriotic duty. They will serve the country. Can loyal citizens refuse this service? a A Ap ~~ re EDOUARD DE RESZEE. The war has collected a heavy toll from the ranks of art, those victims being especially nu- merous who were just beginning their artistic careers after giving a promise of exceptional achievement. The death of Edouard de Reszke at Erietrikow, Poland, came after his artistic ca- reer had been finished. It inspires regret chiefly because of associations connected with past De Reszke triumphs and because of the distressing circumstances under which his last months were passed—circumstances of deprivation and suffer- ing about which he wrote a pitiful letter to the world not long ago. ; As a tenor Jean de Reszke naturally drew to himself the greater adulation during the years he Sang the chief romantic roles of grand opera and was reputed to command the largest salary of any masculine singer in the world. But though sub- ordinated because of his type of voice, Edouard de Reszke was accounted a greater artist than his more famous brother and relatively his voice was assigned a higher rank as a basso than Jean’s as a tenor. His rendition of the sardonic roles in “Faust” and “Barber of Seville’ are among the delightful memories of a ne generation of opera goers. » % > i ie ial FOR A REPUBLIC AT BERLIN. A society called the Friends of the German Re- public has been formed under the direction of a revolutionary committee in New York to work for the substitution of democracy for Hohenzol- lernocracy in Germany. This is the first time organized effort has been devoted to such a purpose and it may be believed that the movement has been started under circum- stances giving some promise of. practical results. The date is not far distant when the German peo- ple will be casting about for something different and better than they have had heretofore in the control of their national destinies. Until that time comes all effort from whatever source for emphasizing the democratic principle and over- coming fixed ideas induced by Prussianism will be useful and. valuable. Preparations for tearing down the governmental system that has brought disaster and horror on Germany, and building a new and better structure on a firmer foundation ought to provide a much more attractive field of activity for German-Americans than attempts of various degrees of seriousness to handicap the United States in the prosecution of the war. ——_—_——_ - —+ oo CONSTANTINE COSTLY TO GREECE.

He ap- peared before St. Peter in due time, and without too close scrutiny into his career, was admitted to Heaven. His duty sat outside the gate as he entered, looking very much like a dog that was about to be abandoned. ‘*Do you want him to go in with you?’’ St. Peter asked. The hero of our anecdote hesitated, as if fearful of ‘involving his own*chances by guessing wrong. ‘*What is the custom,’’ he presently asked. St. Peter lifted a trap door in the sidewalk and laughed in the hearty manner of those with big beards. ‘*T was. joking,’’ he said, as he chucked the third party in the scene through the hole. ‘‘He goes in here.’’ Whereupon it dawned for the first time upon our novitiate why Heaven is Heaven. Reading in ths ‘- Who's Who'’ department of the current Saturday Evening Post that ‘‘Capt. Sims is 59 years old and will be 58 next October,’’ one of our readers wants to know if the Captain is retreating. m= 6: 6 SONG OF FREEDOM. OR I will be free as the columbine That swayed on the ferny hill, As the bird that dipped in the silver stream Where the foaming rapids spill. I will be free as the little flah That sparkled in somber pools At the foot of the hill where the pine comes down And the hot breeze reats and cools. I\wtil be free as the lazy snakes That we startled beneath the stone, hen the sun was warm and the day was long And the bees were all adrone. I will forget what the world has taught, I will be free and wild. I will return to my native haunts, I will be nature's child. JULIA CLOPTON CRESAP.

Danforth, president of the Federal Land Bank of St. Louls, told a Post-Dispatch reporter today that the bank would begin farmers in Missouri, Illinois and Arkan- sas at 5 per cent interest within the next week. Eleven appraisers are now in the field, making appraisals of farm [Lrop- erties, and as soon as any of the:r *ring in their reports the bank will be ready Within a week after the first loan is made, Danforth said, ‘the bank probably will put $700.0 into hands of farmers in the c.strict. Applications for loans in excess of $13,- ; 000,000 are now on file in the offices of f loaning The duty of the appraisers is to make a personal investigation of the prcperty of applicants for loans, and to submit reports to the officials of the bank. The property is first appraised by a committee of the local Nzxtional comiprised of farmers. The delay in making loans has been due to the slowness of farm- ers in organizing the local farm loan cssociation, as required by law, 2iid per- fecting their application papers. Bank Ready Several Months. The bank has been organized for sev- eral months, and ready to do business, but had to wait until the farm: were able to comply with the terms of the Danforth said it was probable that the bank would have all the business it could handle as socn as the organization of the farm loan as- sociations is completed in the three The officials of the: bank have ezdeav- ored to get experts in farm matters for One of the apprais- ers working in Southern Illinois is W. D. Gibbs, who was graduated froin the school of agriculture of the Tlinvis Uni- versity, and formerly was dean of a school of agriculture in Texas under Secretary of Agriculture Houston. also was president of the New Hamp- shire School of Agriculturo for eight years, and recently has been in charge of the land intgrests in Southern illinois of an Eastern syndicate. Edgar L. Dean, now working as an appraiser in Arkansas, was graduated from the Arkansas School of Agricul- ture, and has been a successful county agent for several years. F. H. Me- another appraiser, vated from the School of Agriculture of the Illinois University, and was en- gaged in field work for several years. For some time he has been successfully cperating a big farm in Marion County, This is the type. of men the. bank has endeavored to get for appraisers, but it has not been able to get a force of men apparently so well equipped for L the work as Gibbs, Dean and McKelvey. In getting ready for the big business indicated by the great rumber of appli cations for loans, the bank within the last few days has greatly enlarged its quarters in the Federal Reserve Bank | Building. Reason for 5 Per Cent Charge. Danforth said that the rate of interest for the first loans was fixed at 5 per cent, in anticipation that the farm loan bonds, based upon these loans, will be bought by the public at 4 per cent inter. The loans have to be made ata rate about 1 per cent higher than the rate of the bonds to pay the expenses of He is Missouri, Arkansas, 98 per cent. System Ie Co-Operative. | In further explanation of the farm loan system, Danforth said to a Post- Dispatch reporter: “The Federal Farm Loan system is thoroughly co-operative. get the benefits of it farmers are required to organise.

Pay ments of interest and principal may be made yn the amortization plan. of the loans will range from $100 to $10,000. No farmer may borrow more than 50 per cent of the value of his land, and 2 per cent of the appraised value of the insurable improvements. The bank is encouraging farmers to make their loans for 36 years, for the reason that a 1 per cent payment of plus the interest, charge the debt at the end of that pe- riod. Thus, a farmer, borrowing $10,000. would pay 5 per cant interest each year per cent of principal. cipal would be reduced $100 the firs vear, leaving a balance of $9900 on whic) he would pay interest ahd 1 per cent of principal the second year. However, the JAW permits the bor- rower to pay the entire debt or any part of it in multiples of $25 after a period of five years. of the long term loans is that it en- ables the farmer to use the money for many years, in which timé the éarn- ings from his farm probably will more than pay off the indebtedness.

But power is not tonquest, as. we read the lesson of Europe. Organi- zation, efficiency and superior strength can not confidently assure victory. And the West may refuse to be crushed—even the Cardinals may pull a Papa Joffre on Muggsy von luck, in the latter’s big sweep toward ve citadel. Don’t Gamble, Bo: UT, between ourselves, Bo, keep the family. plate in: the chest, when arguing on this subject. Let no European parallels delude you as to any fancied weakness of Mc- Grawism. This army is rampant, re- inforced——not with concrete—and ir- resistible. At this stage of the march it appears from the “dope” that neth- ing short. of a catastrophe can stop the career of a club which has the greatest pitcher in the league, the greatest attack, thé best defensé and the fightingest bunch of roughnecks that ever made John K. Tener re- mark: “This rudeness in contests must cense!” We're for John K. Tener and law and order; but it'must be recognized that you can’t stop a Hohenzolilern by slapping him on the wrist. ' The seven allies of the National League will have to get together at once and pull more miracles than George Stallings ever read about himself, ere they'll stop the Giants, this séason. . 7 * A New “Iron Man.” ATTLING LEVINSKI’S claim to the “iron man” title of the box- ing world may be seriously disputed by an up-springing Pittsburg middle weight, who is himself “going some” on the road toward fame and fortune. He is Harry Greb, who recently fought George Chip and fought him good and plenty. Battling Levinsky, in his heydey, averaged a fight a week for three- month periods: Ted Lewis is another weekly performer. But Greb has averaged more than one bout per week for the last six months, fight- ing a total of 26 bouts since the last of November, 1916. In 6 months he fought 211 rounds. and laid away about $16,000, of which the largest single amount was $2300 which he earned by opposing the former cham. pion, Chip. It’s good money, Bo. But two hun- dred and cleven rounds! Think how many punches you could block with your face in 211 rounds! Greb appears to be,a live wire and to have @ chance at some réal fame. But, unless he is a remarkably clever man, one able to avoid héavy punish- ment, he will do much better to fight less frequently. —— Constant battering wrecks more pugilistics than Father Time. - THE BEST SUIT ia of 4 MO Be bz BE.—Bases on errors.

OLUEGES and universities, al- though dubious about the future of intercollegiate sporis, are none the less going ahead with the pledging of men who can do things on track and field. Rather, it is the college fra- ternities who are doing the pledging, those alert organizations being ever on the lookout for possible members of unusual merit. This year St. Louvis.and its en- virons present ‘unusual opportunities to coaches’ seeking track and field talent. Deeds and Leffler of McKin- ley High School, are field event men of unusual merit—practically of var- sity caliber right now; Limcoln, Hart, Hamann and Spencer of W ebster are in the same high class; Merchant of Western Military Academy, is one of the best sprinters seen in St. Louis in a long time: McLain and Squires are other cadets who will be heard from; Mel Bekins of Principia, will be a pole vaulter of class, if he keeps at it.
