The return to the mines of Anthra cite workers was expected to follow t'Hlay's conference between officials of the miners' union ana the operators h re. The miners thru tlie scale com mittee have been asking n 10 per cent increase in their pay. The operators wanted a reduction in wajres. Both sides, it was indicated, as the conference was about to convene, were ready to recede from their stand, and close observers declared that there was a likelihood of the 1921 wage scale being adopted for another term. Negotiations for the settlement of the anthracite troubles were to be opened in the offices of S. D. War riner, president of the Lehish Coal and Navigation company at 2 p. m. today. It was declared to be the first time in the hiFtory of the relations be tween two sides, that representatives of the union have manifested a will ingness to meet in the offices of their employer.

Chicago. Aug. 17. The conference of Illinois coal operators and miners scheduled here for today, will open with an indication of a deadlock, ac cording to statements made by both Bides. The conference is expected to last several days and leaders on both sides appear confident that before it is ad journed there will be a satisfactory settlement despite the impasse threat ened by the arbitration angle. (By the Associated I'reis. Chicago, Aug. 17. Coal digging has tieen resumed in a few scattered mines as a result of the partial settlement at Cleveland, Tuesday, of the soft coal strike. Other sections were preparing to resume mining Foon and confer ences in three states had been set for operators and union leaders to con sult regarding agreements for their districts. The situation, according to statement of union chief and operators was set forth as follows: The miners will receive the same wages as paid last year under the Cleveland agreement which J. L. Lewis, president of the union, charac terizes as a basic agreement under which state and local supplement agreements could be drawn up be tween operators and miners. Neither an effort to reduce wages by the oper ators represented at the Cleveland meeting nor demands for a six-hour day, formulated by miners meetings, previous to the strike were pressed.' Seven States Represented. Seven states were represented in the Cleveland meeting. West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Michi gan, Oklahoma and Washington, with a combined tonnage of SO. 000, 000, ac cording to Mr. Lewis. Operators else where questioned the tonnage figures and declared only a small part of the total central competitive field tonnage was represented. The National Coal association however, announced that regardless of the relatively small rep resentation the agreement would lead the way to settlement in most sections of the country. Altho the majority of Indiana and Illinois operators did not sign the Cleveland agreement conferences of operators and union chiefs In those states were set for Friday. South western operators and union leaders were to get together next Friday. The check-off system of deducting miners' union dues from their wages and paid direct to the unions by the operators was retained in the Cleve land agreement. Both Si Jos Optimistic.

MACDOXALD In Country Gentleman for August 10. One of the best tributes ever paid the -Topeka Free Fair appears this week in the current Country Gentleman with the title noted above. It is a two page illustrated article by A. B. Mae douald and is full of the real spirit of the fair that has made Topeka famoua in the exposition world. The article ia batted on a visit to Topeka by Mr. Ma'vlonald and an interview with Phil Knstman, secretary of the fair and the man who haa made it the great auccesa it ia. Tbe article in part follows The Kansas Free Fair is advertised as the biggest and best fair between the Mississippi and Pike's Peak. I went to Topeka last month and .asked Phil Eastman, secretary and manager of the fair, why 350,000 persons visited the fair in one week, many of them from distant parts of Kansas and from beyond the borders of the state. I said that while his fair was having such big crowds, many others were in a, bad way, their managers worry ing about the small attendance and how to make both ends meet. "Yes, I know that," he said. "I get stacks of letters from farmers who are stockholders in fairs, from officials or fairs, from progressive farmers all over this country who want better fairs in their counties, asking me how we manage to make such a success of free fair here, with the gates standing open day and night. Inviting everybody to enter. There seems to be great in terest In the free fair idea. And I have had hundreds of letters this year from folks interested in fairs in every part of the country, and even from Canada, asking what features of our fair have the most drawing power, what attrac tions they can put in to bring more people to their fairs, how they can make the fair pay'if they throw out the girl shows and gambling and run a clean fair. How to bring the crowds and so please them that they will re turn next year seems to be the greatest concern of people interested in fairs." Not Because It's Free. "Is it because the fair is free that you get such crowds?" I asked. "Not altogether," he answered. "A great many spend fifty or seventy-five cents to see the horse racing, anyhow. We sometimes have 10,000 paid ad missions to the races on an afternoon, and nearly all visitors to the fair spend money freeiy." "Is it because you have such a fine line' of amusements?" "Not altogether that, either. Farm ers come to our fair from all parts of the state and from beyond, but the majority come from the eastern half of the state. Thousands come- in mo tor cars from as far as a hundred miles away, starting from home by early lamplight?- staying on the fair grounds until ten o'clock at night, then making the long drive back home again. Farmers don't go to all that trouble these days for amusement alone, just to see- the clowns, the circus acts and shows. Farmers don't have to go that tarfor amusement. They don't come so far merely to see a fair, because the sixteen counties from which we draw most of our visitors each has a fair of its own. In oUr ad vertising we don't emphasize the amusement end of it so much as we do the educational features.' He showed me the posters, books of premium lists and circulars that the fair broadcasted over Kansas this year. There was little in those advertise ments about amusements, but there DIG KANSAS COAL FiTe Pittsburg Companies in Agreement to Operate. Several Other Operators In Peace Negotiations. Pittsburg. Kan.. Aug. 1-7. Agree ments have been signed with five coal mine operating companies or firms for the resumption of work, it was an nounced by George L. Peck, provi sional president of the Kansas district U. M. W. A- this morning. Mr. Peck said that the mines affect ed would eventually employ 300 men. About 100 men will go to work im mediately. The operators concerned are inde pendents, that is, not members of the Southwestern Interstate Coal Op erators' association. Their mines are in the class between the big deep mines, practically all of which are op erated by association members, and the "dinkies" which employ only a few men and are sunk to work out small areas left between workings of the big companies. A considerable part of the product of these secondary mines is purchased by the large com panies altho some of the coal 13 put on the local market. The companies or firms which have signed up are: Simion Cumiskey, P. R. G. Coal company. Liberty Coal company. Fleming Kilger and the Stocker Coal company. President Peck said that he was conducting negotiations today with several other operators. At the mines affected by the agree ment some men were at work today cleaning up preparatory to production of coal. It is probable that actual digging of coal will begin tomorrow or Saturday. DOCTOR CHARGED WITH FRAUD Indictment Returned in ltl4 Finally Resnlts in Arrest. St. Louis. Aug. 17. Dr. Henry W. Baskett today was arrested on a charge of using the mails in a scheme to defraud as a result of the indict ment in September of 1914 of a group of physicians ai.d surgeons in Houston, known as the "German-American doc tors." Dr. Basket waived a preliminary hearing and was released under S2.50O bail to appear at Houston September 25 to answer the charge. TARIFF PROPOSAL IS DEFEATED. Senator Lcnroot Proposed a Limit on Table, Kitchen and Batcher Knives. Washington, Aug. 17. By a vote of 3S to 28, the senate refused today to limit to 60 per cent ad valorem, the duty on table, butcher. carving. kitchen, bread and similar knives. The limitation was proposed by Len root. Republican. Wisconsin. He. said the rates approved ranged from 100 to 218 per cent. was much about the educational side of the fair. Thus: What They Want. A solid week of education and enter tainment. Thirty educational departments of interest to every farmer and stock raiser and' their families. The fair that helps boys and girls be better farmers. The fair that helps make life on the farm more easy and profitable.. A million-dollar livestock show. The fair where you can learn and gain new view-points, new Ideas, and form new ideals. The friendliest fair on earth. Eastman went on to say: "We try to make this fair an institution of learning for folks of all ages, as defi nitely a part of the state's educational system as the public schools. If we simply amused the people, or made amusement the chief aim of this fair, we would not grow as we do, and we J re growing. Mix Fun and Intcrcs. '"But," continued Eastman, "a fair must not make the mistake of being too coldly educational, teachy and dull; -it must not try to cram educa tion Into people; It must mix a lot ef fun and interest with its educational futures. I can illustrate what t mean by describing the eight home-demonstration displays we are to have at the fair this year. S:x are to be p it on by the farm bureaus etf different ceunties, and will be in charge of the women demonstration agents of those counties; two will be put on by the State Agricultural college. All are highly educational, intended to show the development of activities for wo men In -the Btate, thru the farm bu reau, And yet they will be Very inter esting. Any county fair that is look ing for new things to attract people, especially women, can easily put on displays similar to these.'' After going into county exhibits, Mr. Macdonald writes: A Tribute to Phil Eastman. The editor of one of the newspapers tflt Topeka said to me: "Phil Eastman knows more men, women and children in Kansas than any other man in the state. We all know him as Free-Fair Phil.!" He is the best mixer I ever kneW4; You've seen his smile; well, it ever comes off. Xuring fair week he sits every day, and all day and all evening, at an open window in his of fice en the grounds, and there is not a- Jnrrnute when he isn't shaking hands.

That is. the spirit that makes out .fair get across in such a big way." When .1 repeated that to Eastman he said: ""That's the way to run a fair. I'd rather be short on exhibits and long on friendliness than to be short on friendliness and long on ex hibits. A fair should make every ef fort to have that friendly touch be tween patrons and .exhibitors and the fair managers. I wouldn't have a man on the grounds with a surly look or a short answer." STRIKE COST HUGE Is Incalculable But Staggering, Officials Say. AVorkmen Hare Lost $90,000, 000 in Wages Alone. Washington, Aug. 17. The cost of the railroad strike is incalculable, but staggering. This was the opinion today of gov ernment officials who sought some comprehensive idea of how much the strike is costing the country. The striking railway shopmen have lost forty working days since laying down their tools on July 1. Approxi mately 400.000 men are out. according to union officials, and on a basis of an eight hour day. they have lost 12s million working hours. At 70 cents an hour this would have netted them 189.600,000. What the strike is costing railroads thru impaired equipment, loss of business and strike guards, can only be a matter of conjecture. What the strike is costing shippers, particularly shippers of perishables like fruit and vegetables, also is prob lematical. All authorities are agreed, however, that it is staggering.

Chem ists with portable laboratories and capable of analyzing liquor on the jump, may be needed in Florida as prohibition officers under a ruling of County Judge J. R. Johnson of St. Lucie county.

Democratic Nomination Cost Jonathan Davis $459.05. Altho candidates and political ob servers generally declared hat the people showed less interest in the re cent primary campaign than had ever been known, the official count of the votes as tabulated by L. J. Pettijohn, secretary of state, shows that a record-breaking vote was cast and that thousands voted in the primary this year who did not vote two years ago, despite the fact that 1920 was a presi dential year. Heavy Vote for Governor, The Republican vote this year for governor ran over 200,000 approxi mately 36,000 votes larger than in 1920. In many parts of the state it was charged that the Republican vote was swelled by Democrats going into the booths and calling for Republican ballots. But the official figures show a big increase in the total Democratic vote for governor. In 1920 with four Democratic gubernatorial candidates the total vote was 38,739. This year with only three candidates it was 57, 206, an increase of 18.467. Candidates this year have thirty days in which to file their campaign expense accounts, the law having been amended at the last session of the legislature giving them thirty days in stead of ten in which to make their filings. However, most of those who were nominated have already filed their statements of expenditures. Morgan Spent Only $400. W. Y. Morgan, the Republican nominee for governor, has filed a sworn statement that his total pri mary expenses amounted to" only $400, which was a contribution to the Mor gan -for-goverr or committee. The statement of .Jonathan M. Davis, the Democratic nominee, shows that ho spent more money than Morgan, his sworn accourt showing a total of $459.05. (Candidates do not have to include their personal traveling ex panses in these statements). An interesting: feature about the ex pense accounts is that the two women candidates for the Republican nomi nation for governor, who received less than 1,000 each, spent almost as much as Morgan. Miss Helen Pettigrew spent a total -of 817 and Mrs. W. D. Howry spent $265. Hopkins Spent $88 J. According to the statements, R. J. Hopkins, who defeated Justice Silas Porter for a re-nomination, spent only $382, and C. B. Griffith, -ho won the Republican nomination for attorney general, spent only $325.15. W. R. Baker, who won the Repub lican nomination for insurance super intendent, spent $245, his statement shows; and Frank J. Ryan, who de feated D. O. McCray fci- the Repub lican nomination for secretary of state, spent oifly $103. MORGAN F0RS0pRSr BONUS Republican Nominee for Governor Vrges Kansas to Vote for It. Dodjre City. Kan., Augr. 17. "Those who remained at home and participated in the profitable times brought about by the demands of the world war ought to organize and go to the polls November 7 to see that the adjusted compensation proposition receives their unanimous support," W. T. Mor ban of Hutchinson, Republican guber natorial nominee, declared in an ad dress here today at the Southwestern Kansas Veterans association reunion. Tho reunion opened Tuesday and will continue thru Saturday- Civil, Spanish-American and world war vet erans thruout this section of the state are attending. Today is Sons' of Vet erans day. "People are sometimes careless, but when reminded they will not forget 1 tho pledges made to our soldier boys when we sent them overseas to rigni for us," Mr. Morgan told his audi ence. "This bonus provision will no come near to making up to thee young men for the sacrifice they mad a in our behalf, but it will at least be an expression of the fact that we have not forgotten." The speaker reviewed the services of American soldiers in every war in which they have engaged. "Always after they had laid aside arms ana equipment," he said, "they returned to civil life to remain derenders of the country, its institutions and laws. "And now," he concluded, "we want no more wars; no more sacrifice of young manhood; no more suffering nor anguish for those at home. We want peace with all nations and a set tlement of quesions whtcn arouse the 1 passions of men. either at home or abroad, by an impartial adjudication, and not by destruction of property .and loss of life."

It was expected that -the ap plication would be filed late this aft ernoon by MaJ. T. J. Strickler, con sulting engineer for the companies.

Rail Heads and Tin Ion Chiefs Meet With Jewell Present. PROPOSE NEW SENIORITY PLAN Individual Settlements Under. Restrictions Now Seen. Harding to Wait Result Before Going Before Congress. j- New Tork, Aug. 17. Railway ecutives and brotherhood chiefs, con ferring here today in an effort to end the country-wide shopmen's strike had failed at 4:30 o'clock to reach an agreement and indications were that the parley, still in progress might have to be continued tomorrow. (By Tbe Associated Frew.) New York, Aug. 17. The fifth ef fort by an outside agency to end the nation-wide shopmen's strike that be gan more than six weeks ago was made today when leaders of the rail road brotherhoods went into confer ence with a( committee representing railroad officials at the Broadway headquarters of the association of rail way executives Bert M. Jewell president of the rail way employes' department of the American Federation of Labor, ar rived in this city just as the confer eence was called and announced that he was holding himself In readiness to advise with conferees if he was called. Mr. Jewell issued the following statement: "The officers of all the railway labor organizations are now conlnuing as they have thruout the strike to do everything possible to bring about an amicable settlement." Five brotherhood leaders, represent ing the running trades of American railroads, today went Into formal con ference to draw up a program for end ing of the nation-wide shopmen's strike to be submitted this afternoon to executives representing 148 roads. While none of the strike leaders would itermit themselves to be quoted, they indicated, that they did not ex pect the brotherhoods to suggest any patched-up compromise to the execu tives nor that the brotherhoods wmald promlne to exert their influence to get the .shopmen to-' return If seniority rights were not guaranteed strikers. Watch Brotlierhoods Closely. The formal conference which had been preceded t-y a more informal as sembly, was called upon arrival of Warren 8. Stone, president of the Brotherhood of Engineers. What the proposals the brotherhood chiefs, as suming the role of mediators, would bo, could not be learned from them, when they closed the door behind them. Representatives of the station ary trades, however, who were watch ing closely the brotherhood confer ence, indicated that they expected the running crafts now to suggest sny compromise on the matter of seniority rights, which has proved the blir stumbling block in peace efforts thus far. (Dy The Associated Tress.) New York. Aug. 17. The scene of negotiations toward peace on the rail roads again shifted from Washington to New York today, when carrier presidents and union chiefs assembled for a conference, the fifth attempt of an outside agency to suggest an ac ceptable solution to the seniority riddle. Heading the employers Is Bewitt Cuyler. chairman of the national as sociation with committee of nine rail road presidents. Warren 8. Rtone, ha. tional head of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, was attended by chiefs of the other big four run ning crafts. Chiefs of the big four, arriving for the meeting, declared they were with out a definite plan for solution of the seniority question. One possible plan by whrch the roads might maintain their im) icy of rewarding loyal and new employes with seniority prefer ence over returning strikers and still effect -a compromise with the shop crafts, ai peered in the mass of unof ficial discussion in railway circles prior to the conference. Such a plan, as Was believed would be acceptable to the crafts, was outlined by certain executives as follows: New Seniority Plan. 1. That railroads. Instead of being Imund fiy the majority action of the Association of Railway executives,- be permitted to take back as many of the' strikers as needs of Individual roads dictated. This would assure Jobs t all the strikers on most of the roads in the country, particularly in the southeast and thruout the west. 2. That the roads and unions agree to recognize the seniority of loyal em ployes who refused to strike. 1. That the seniority status of re-' turning strikers and so-called "new men" be fixed thru agreements be tween unions and managers of indi vidual roads, governed partly by standards of efficiency of individual employes In both classes. 4. That all pension rights be re stored to the pre-strike status. No official sponsor appeared for this plan. Members of the executives' committee declined to discuss its mer its and the big four representative ook a similar attitude. Harding Message Walts. Washington. Aug. 17.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 17, 1922 SAVE 10PER CENT Employes' Associated Compa nies Hare Saying Flan. Order Made Effective by Com panies Is a Success. Abilene, Kan.. Aug. 17. The Asso ciated Companies, which owns scores of telephone exchanges and electric franchises thruout central and north western Kansas, several months ago Instituted an order that each em ploye save at least 10 per cent of his or her wages. A survey as to what ex tent the order has been carried out has just been completed by Mr. and Mrs. T. O. Jackson. They report that 98 per cent of the employes are sav ing 10 per cent of their wages, and estimate that within another yeor 20 or 30 per cent of the wages will go Into the savings accounts. Employes who found how easy It was to store away 10 per cent for a "rainy day." have, of their own free will, decided to double their saving ration, accord ing to Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, whose report follows: "We have met a few who thought they could not rave the 10 per cent, but we are confident that 98 per cent of the employes can and will meet the requirements of the savings plan. Easy to Save. "It Is surprising, the number of em ployes who. when they heard of this I'lan. started the experiment from thirty to sixty days before July 1. And they tell us that It Is quite sur prising to learn how easily one can save if he is determined to do so. "Many compliments have we had for this savings system and the per sons who started it, not only from our mployes. but from many business and professional men. "To illustrate some of the experi ences: We talked to two young men who insisted that with board at S2S a month and other expenses running high they could not possibly put away 10 per cent of their incomes each month. They had neer saved and had no prospects of saving. But In their conversation they failed to tell us that just the week bfore they had hired a car for $15 to take them to a nearby town to attend a baseball game. Widow Building Homo. "We have a night operator who is a widow with four small children. She had made an effort to build a home thru the aid of a building and loan association. During off houis he has dug a 365-foot ditch herself in order to put water into the hous". fihe saves her 10 per cent. "We asO found a case where the hudi't book helped a wire chief to find himself. He was saving but lit tle. When he totaled his month's ex penditures he found that he had spent over $16 for himself and family for Foft drinks alone. His verdict was "never again'."

Course of Action Decided Upon Before Mandate Was Granted. Jerusalem. Aug. 17. The Arab Congress Executive, looking forward to carrying on its opposition to the granting to Great Britain of the Palestine mandate, met in Jerusalem lately and passed a series of resolu tions. Some of these provided for continued agitation against ratifica tion of the mandate: others consid ered a course of action in case the mandate was approved. (The Council of the League of Na tions fom-ally approved the Palestine mandate to Great Britain and the Syrian mandate to France in London July 24, more than three weeks after this letter from Jerusalem was writ ten. The Earl of Balfour, in outlining Great Britain's policy in Palestine be fore the council, said this would be one of strict Impartiality and justice in which all traditional rights, senti ments and religious feelings of tha different racial groups would be re spected and held Inviolate.) Among the resolutions are the fol lowing: If the mandate Is ratified In its pres ent form, the executive will ask the delegation in London to return so as to start operations on the spot against the government. That a Moslem delegation be sent to Mecca to carry on propaganda among the pilgrims from India, Turkey, Persia and Egypt for the realization of the Arab demands. That a Christian delegation be gent to the Vatican in Rome to carry on the same propaganda in the center of the Catholic world. Commenting on the situation Jamal Effendi el Husselnl, secretary of the Arab executive, said: "The. world in general and in particular Great Britain must realize that the spark of liberty and independence still burns in the heart of every Palestinian. We would rather shed the last drop of our blood in the struggle for freedom than spend the rest of our lives as the slaves of the Jew in our beloved land."

Four Clay county national guardsmen evi dently did not like the idea of going to Herington for strike duty so they decided to tour Manhattan. However, their visit was interrupted by the police, who were ordered to hold the guardsmen until an officer arrived to file "A. W. O. L." charges. Ik' Why Castoria? YEAES ago Castor Oil, Paregoric, Drops and Soothing Syrups were the remedies in common use for Infants and Children; Castor Oil so nauseating as to be; almost impossible and the others all containing Opium in one form or another, but so disguised as to make them pleasant to the taste, yet really to stupify the child and give the appearance of relief from pain. It required years of research to find a purely vegetable combination that would take the place of these disagreeable, unpleasant and vicious remedies that from habit had become, almost universal. This was the inception of, and the reason for, the introduction of Fletcher's Castoria, and for over 30 years it has proven its worth, received the praise of Physicians everywhere and become a household word among mothers. A remedy ESPECIALLY prepared for Infants and Children and no mother would think of giving to her baby a remedy that she would use for herself, without consulting a physician.

The .Washington department of labor re 'Torts that "there is a strong under--current thruout the country In the di rection of industrial recovery."

In rf!ocka large or small, and there are Tar more who would like to add a few -sheep to their farm stock If they could tdepend upon a permanent market at profitable prices. These gentlemen "might have added with the same de igree of truth that there are JOO.OOO ther persons in the United States Who would like to engage in any one vf a dozen enterprises that could be .named "if they could depend upon a permanent market at profitable J.prices."

One ia reminded of the old saw that "It Is an ill wind that blows nobody good." by the fact that America's tShlps are meeting the coat strike emergency by rushing half a million tons of British fuel for the great utll- ftlea companies gas, electric and traction at the moment most needed. More than fifty government owned vessels have been chartered for this trade, says a statement issued by the National Merchant Marine association, and if the demand grows more ships will be ready to meet It. Putting these ships into service not only gives a profit to the government, but gives .-employment to hundreds of skilled workmen ashore and many hundreds of American officers and seamen long out of work, due to world trade de pression. Foreign miners "are kept out by the immigration laws but there Is no law barring the product of their .labor. When the unions obtained the "passage of the per cent immigration law they seam to have overlooked :semething. The union miners have won none ol "the things for which they struck. On the other hand they have lost nothing except their time and for this the pub lic will be compelled to pay. f' In a recent address Samuel Oom Iters condemned the owners of coal mines for operating thosemlnes not for service but for profit. Tet Mr. jQompera himself apparently has not always been unmindful of profits. He Ja reported to have amassed a fortune ot 13.000,000. He hardly could have Saved so much out of his salary as president ot the American Federation cf Labor, large as that salary Is, and long as his term of service has been.

An attempt to produce coal without profit speedily would re sult in no coal. A PROBLEM Xlf FINANCE. The Brotherhood of Locomotive En gineers has decide! that Its members are entitled to a wage somewhere be tween 15,000 and Sf.OOO sa-year. If engineers require this amount to live decently, so does every other worker. If attempt were made to pay every worker this amount the total of money In the country would give out before the paymaster got half way around. There is only about 150 per capita in the country, which sum is represented by approximately an equal amount of goods. The crux of the whole rail problem, the engineers claim, is the inability or unwillingness of American railroads under present management to pay a decent wage to the railroad workers. The railroads come before" the Ameri can people. It ia pointed out, and say that they cannot pay a living wags and make 6 per cent dividend at the same time; therefore, they want wages reduced still further. They have obtained an order from the la bor board fixing railway men's pay as low as It cents an hour, or 11.84 a day. This conflict between human wel fare and dividends coupled wUh the Inefficiency of service received by farmers and other shippers, makes it necessary for the people themselves to control the railroads of the country, the engineers state. Just as they con trol the dirt roarts as a publio utility operated for the good of an. But as a matter of fact the people thru their government do control the railroads. It waa when they under took to control railroad employes, as well, that trouble arose. The rail roads are bound hand and foot by law and their earnings are limited. The brotherhood, on the wages its members have been receiving, has ac cumulated enough money to start a bank with a capital of $100it00, in Cleveland. Is it contemplated that all worker shall become bankers? Samuel Gompers wants the British anions to refuse to handle coal In tended for shipment to the United States. It is understood he Is receiv ing very little response to his appeals. The British miners have vivid recol lections of their own strike of two years ago, and probably will be in no hurry to repeat It even to help ont their brothers in America. 1 raa THE BTJUiDINO BOOM. Jt la announced that building thru out tha country reached the unprece dented high level ot (1,700,000,000 during the first half of 1922, which is more than $600,000,000 In excess ot the amount for the first half of 1921. Thus the nation is making up for the building neglected during the war. The activity In building tines means much for the future of the country. With an increased number of houses, there should be a reduction in rentals. from which change the wage earner will profit In reduced cost of living. More important than that, however, is the abundance of jobs at high wages for all who are qualified for the work. Builders complain of a scarcity of skilled workmen. Apparently Idle ness, where it exists, is among the unskilled classes. An unusual proportion of the build lng Is for residential purposes, and the housing shortage seems in a fair way to be relieved. Curing the war there was a rush of building for in dust rial purpose and many of the war plants having been reorganized for peace purposes, there Is not much demand for Industrial eonst ruction. Forty per cent of the new building is for residential purposes as compared with 22 per cent In 1920. One of the surprising announce ments in connection with the building situation is that in New Tork City the highest wages on record are being paid. The average hourly wage in thirty-two classes of building labor on July 1 waa 11.09, which is a small fraction higher than In 1921 or 1920, but considerably higher than was reached during the war. The rates paid In New Tork City are higher than any other place in the 'United States, the average for the country be ing 10 cents an hour. It ia stated that even at current rates, contractors In the metropolitan district are un able to keep mechanics because small speculative builders are continually raiding the market for mechanics. The urgent demand for labor has its counterpart in the demand for ma terials," but the prices of materials have not kept np as have the wages of building mechanics. According to sta tistics, lumber production is rapidly approaching the high figures of 1920, the record year, but prices are still 40 per cent lower than two years ago. Cement and brick, altho In large de mand, are selling below 1920 prices. What the builder must pay In un usual wages he makes np in lower prices for materials. Naturally, since construction is largely turning to res ldential purposes, the demand for lumber is greater in proportion than for other forms of building material. The building situation again Illus trates the fact that the best guaranty of good wages is demand for workers. Building mechanics are receiving un precedented wages because the de mand for workmen has outstripped the supply. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau nUCDKXtXO at. HAKKTN, Washington, D. O. TWO RARE DISEASES, Washington, D. C Aug. 14. The recent death of a prominent official of the Emergency Fleet corporation of an, ailment known as San Joaquin Valley disease focused the attention of the country for an Instant upon that strange and fatal malady Of all the ills that flesh is heir to or American flesh, at any rate this one has the fewest legatees; for no case of it in the fatal form has ever been known to develop outside the small section of California called the San Joaquin Valley. The disease, however, while rare is not mysterious. It is caused by a germ which medical science has isolated and studied. The strange thing is that tho the disease is con tatinua its aDread is confined to a relatively thinly populated, section of camornia. It is not quite fair to California to insist that the disease is peculiar to that fair region. San Joaquin Valley disease exists in two forms, one is the fatal kind, in which the lerm attacks the victim's lungs, the symptoms of tha Illness being so nearly like those of tuberculosis that physicians nave sometimes conrusea tne two. 'ine other is a milder type, in which the germ attacks the victim's skin. A number of cases of this latter type have been observed In districts in the vicinity of Chicago. Attacks of this type are not likely to end fatally. It also seems reasonable to suppose that America has no monopoly of this affliction and that it may exist ana be nrevalent in other parts of the world. In countries In which the medical vigil is less expert and thoro than lu our own, it is quite possible that can Joaquin Valley disease, as we call it here, is annually claiming its victims. At any rate, one undeniable case of it has been reported in South America. It is entirely within possibility that the disease exists there but is identi fied as the better known tuberculosis. That a disease may be widespread in a. population and still escape de tection was demonstrated in our own American experience with pellagra. Only a few years ago this disease was supposed by scientists to be exceed ingly rare in the United States. But as investigation' proceeded, the sur prising fact developed that tn reality it was one of the commonest of the diseases in the United States, thou sands and thousands of Americans, particularly at certain seasons of the year, suffering from it. and many be ing slain by it. Twenty Years of Study. The doctors of the Public Heath Service in Washington have been studying San Joaquin Valley disease for twenty years. In that time they have had the germ under the micro scope, have grown it in cultures out side the human body, have trans planted the infection to rabbits and guinea pigs, and have given to it a literature of considerable bulk. They have done everything but discover a specific cure for the disease. The cure. like that of tuberculosis, tne germ 01 which has also been isolated, has eluded them. The victim of San Joa quin Valley disease usually dies after suffering for several years. A few have vitality enough, to throw it on. Practically only adults seem to be subject to it. The organism which causes the di sease was not difficult to discover, for It is a vegetable form rather higher in the scale of life than bacteria and be ing close to yeast spores in character istics. These organisms are known as blastomyces. Sunlight, fresh air, and invigorating food, to which the tuber culosis germ will often yield, do not seem to have much effect upon the blastomyces. W hence these organisms come to afflict man nobody knows. but, because the disease they cause is so sharply localized, the Public Health surgeons suspect that some species of animal living in the San Joaquin Val ley is serving as a reservoir of the contagion The public health service has so many more formidable enemies to human life to fight that it is devoting no undue amount of attention to San Joaquin valley disease. In the twenty years since the disease has been recognized, fewer than fifty cases have occurred in California. Conse quently the people of the San Joaquin valley, despite the malady, continue to be good life insurance risks and can go to bed of nights without worry ing lest they be Invaded by the in fection which some branch of the native fauna is evidently earning around. Another Queer Plsense. Of much more concern to the pub lic health service lately la another disease now prevalent in the United States but little known to the public. This ailment is known as clonorchias!, or liver fluke disease. Altho there are hundreds and even thousands of cases of it now existing in this coun try, and the stage is apparently all set for it, not a single case of clonorchiasis has ever been known to develop In the United States. It is entirely Imported by its victims, most if not all of whom are Chinese and Japanese. The public health surgeons estimate offhand thatj one of every 100 Chinese in the United States is suffering from it. Any alien suffering with clonorchiasis is barred by the quarantine regula tions from entering the United States, but the disease is often hard to de tect, and undoubtedly numerous suf- lerers get in. The scientists studying clonorchiasis have revealed the fact that nature can outdo the moat imaginative novelist when it comes to stretching the long arm of coincidence. Most informed persons are aware. of the curious life cycie of the- malaria germ, which, after leaving the body of a carrier, must undergo a stage of existence In the body of a mosquito. The life cycle of the liver fluke, as the worm is called which causes this disease. goes far beyond that of the malaria germ in complexity. Suppose a fiction writer were to de velop a detective story in which he would havs the villain commit a mur der In this way: The villain would Implant a certain Infection in a dog. Then he would arrange it that the eggs of the murderous organism should leave the dog and take up residence in a snail. The snaiT would then be earen by a fish and not bv any fish but by a certain kind of trout. The trout must then be caught and eaten by the victim of thp plot but the victim must not ,cook the fish- he must eat it raw. At this point the editor to whom such a story wag sub mitted would cease to read and would send it back to its author as prepos terous. Tet that is precisely what happens when a Chinese contracts clonorchia sia The liver parasite, first in the form of its eggs, passes from dogs or men to other men, thru the medium of two hosts, a certain aquatic snail and a trout of a certain species. In both of which intermediate stations It com- pletes stages of its existence. If the fish were cooked, the worm would be destroyed. The publio health scientists have discovered that both the snails and the fish of the requisite varieties exist to gether In this country. What saves the American people from an epidemic of clonorchiasis is-the fact that they do not eat their trout raw. Liver fluke disease is seldom fatal, but it Is nevertheless incurable. Science has not yet discovered a poison that will kill the parasite with out first killing the host Dorothy Dix Talks arr dobotbtt tax Waatara HI class raid Wesaa Watch Tour Step, Boy 2. Then there's tha rowing girl, who will take you cut in a boat and let you lie on your back and stare up at the sky while she pulls the oars. Watch out for her.

(Copyright, 1922. by the Wheeler Syn- ciieate inc. George Matthew Adams Daily Talk IT LOOKED LIKE A STORM. A beautiful dav bee-an tn Black clouds gathered like frightened sheep, until the great heavens became a mass or floating mystery ebony colored. I sat outside on my porch watching inv nittLj ji arama ot nature. In a few moments the roar .of thun der and the flash of lightning told all too wen ot approaching storm. The crickets sounded their alarms, the trees of the forest began to turn their leaves and their branches bent from tne wind. At any moment the rain misrht come, or tha wind Increase to such fury that many a great tree would be unable to stand the strain as many trees oeiore naa been unable. People could Jbo seen running to shelter. You could hear the bark of frightened dogs. Automobiles in creased their speed so that they might be beyond the reach of those dark, black clouds when they began their spin. It looked like a storm bat there was none! Soon the heavens began to clear and the dark clouds were replaced by cream colored ones with patches of blue in the back ground. Night had begun to come on. And because the scene was so full of charm and beauty, I sat on watching and waiting. In a little while stars ap peared. A half moon smiled from beneath feathery ghosts. And the Big Dipper pointed its front finger-star to the star of the north in exactly the same way it has for thousands, per haps millions, of years. In the cool restfulness of this after- scene. I thought how, like this ex pected storm are most of our imag ined troubles never materializing! It looked like a storm. But there was no storm. Just something that had a "scare" to it, which soon passed away and brought in its stead a beau tiful evening, calm and soothing, studded with stars with God watch ing overhead.

Evening Story Memories Interwoven. BY RUBY DOUGLAS. -In spite of the fact that Hugh Wharton was what the boys called a regular fellow, be bad developed an art la which ha had become absorbed namely, the art of designing and ex ecuting the most beautiful of old fashioned hooked rugs. An architect by profession, he had felt a creative urge that took him out of the practical field of his work and had led him first Into designs of fan tastie colors for mural decorations in soma of the more artistic buildings which be bad designed. Then, re membering that art of his grand mother, he had decided to make a frame and a design on canvas And try bis luck with a rug. "I can do It evenings when I am ton tired to read, fellows," he exe plained when the boys with whom he lived chlded him for his feminine task. "I guess I'll take to tattln'," chaffed one. "And I to knittin'," added another. But Hugh was not to be put from his purpose. He soon had the big frame constructed and had relied- the canvas at the end and drawn the de sign thereon. He had made an old fashioned bouquet In the center and intended to work It out in all the hollyhock, corn-flower, love-ln-a-mist and caienauia colors 01 tne natural flowers. "Don't forget the forgetmenots,' sang out the boys as they watched him hook in and out or tne pattern. "You'll be Jolly glad to have it in the room when it is done," he said good-naturedly. He could see a real admiration for his work behind the teasing attitude of his friends. "Where do you get all the rags?' asked Bob Taylor. "Oh, here and there from the a-lrls." admitted Hugh. "Whose red sport coat Is that In the center rose?" asked Tom. "Remember Helen Moore?" The three men recalled at once the gay red golf coat of the girl who had married one of their friends and gone away. "When you are old and cranky and sit in reverie witn your pipe, you can think of all the girls who -contributed a bit of their finery to your rug, eb. Hugh?" Hugh nodded. He was hooking bits of soft blue woolley material into tne design of-a cluster of cornflowers. His face had taken on a reminiscent ex pression. "I wouldn't cry over it, Hugh, old boy," began Bob. Hugh forced a smile. "What's the idea? Whose soft blue is that you are moping over?" The artist did not speak for a mo ment. He had stopped to clip off the tops of the stitches and .had made the effect as soft as if the flowers them selves were lying on the gray back ground. "Florence Milton's mother gave me this material. It was in a suit of Flor ence's years -go when I first met her," he said at last. "Oh, and that reminds me, I saw her yesterday. Hugh was startled. "Saw Florence Milton? Where?" "Here In town, of course. Didn't think I'd been to Europe, did you?" "But I thought she wasn't coming home for another year," persisted Hugh, resuming his work. Bob Taylor smiled. He recalled the fact that Hugh and Florence had once been sweethearts before Florence had gone off to Italy to study sculp ture. That night Hugh did not work with any other color but the blue. The next day he called up Mrs. Mil-, ton. Ostensibly, he called her to tell her how well the blue was working Into the rug. Really, he wanted to find out the truth about Florence. "Why don't you bring it over to show me, Hugh" asked Mrs. Milton. "I well, I could, at that." he said guiltily. "I'll put it in the car and bring it around tonight." "I used to make them myself years ago. My grandmother taught me to hook rugs out of all the old ties and silks and make wonderful things. I'd love to see yours." But she did not say a word about Florence. Hugh had a suspicion that Bob had been chaffing him. When the' door at the Milton home was thrown open that night the first glimpse'Of the inside that caught his eye was Florence, herself, standing there to greet him. What she began. Oh. it's a rug I've been hooking and your mother wanted to see) it," he explained. j And then he took both her hands and looked into her eyes to search for! something that she had told him was not within her. 'Florence is it there yet? Have you found out that you care? Ia is that why you came back?" Florence nodded, while tears rilled her eyes. Together they went into the great living-room where Mrs. Milton sat by the fire. Hugh showed her the rug and she detected the blue of Florence's suit. 1 "See, dear, she said to her daugh ter, "I gave" this woolly goods to Hugh tor his corn-flower blue. Isn't it pretty?" Pretty lsn t the word, corrected Hugh. "It is wonderful. And Into the corn-flower I have woven all the dreams of the past few years. I may have a memory?" You may have more than a mem ory Hugh," said Florence, going over to him and putting her hand in his. Mrs. Milton discreetly studied the pattern of the rug and recalled some memories 01 ner own romance. (Copyright 1922, by The HcClure News paper bynaicate.) LITTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK Bt liEH PAPE.

A Stenographer's Romance BY JANE PHELPS NELLIE IS ENTHTJSIAS' STIC. Chapter 28. "Oh, Cora! It's Just wonderful!" she exclaimed as soon as she saw her. "He was so nice but no foolishness, nothing but business." "Wait until we get Inside, dear. Every one Is looking at us," Cora counseled. "There, now," as .they found a table by themselves, "tell me all about It." There wasn't much to tell, yet Nellie made quite a graphic taM of it. "He told me to eat a good luncheon, and I told him that was what you had told me to do. Then he asked who you were and I told him." Cora laughed when Nellie said she had told Mr. Fallon she couldn't help being young, then her face grew serious. "He smiled at me, said to be thank ful I was young and healthy. But I'll remember." Then: "he didn't say a word about pay, Cora." "He probably didn't think it neces sary. Miss McBiide acts as his agent in the matter and she told you." "I guess that's it!" Nellie, sighed happily, then devoted herself exclu sively to lunch She and Cora-planned a short walk before they returned to work. "We'll do this every pleasant day," Cora said as they talked of how nice it was to be so near eacn other. "I always get back five minutes before my time is up. It is better than tak ing chances on being late." "I'll do that too!,. Oh. Cora,, just pray I suit them!" Nellie said fervent ly as they parted. The afternoon passed quickly. Mr. Fallon kept her very busy, and when it came time to go she was very tired. The excitement, the anxiety to please, had kept her at a nervous pitch all day. But just as he closed his desk her chief said: "You have done remarkably well for one unaccustomed to my work. Miss McBride seldom makes a mis take." Nellie forgot she was tired, forgot everything but his praise. Tht it in cluded Miss McBride perhaps was meant mere for her made Nellie none the less grateful. She looked so happy when she told trys girls that Gladys said: "Don't let yourself get too enthusi astic, Nellie. The blow would be all the harder to bear if you found you didn't suit.. The first day's work is usually light." "There wasn't anything light, in the way he kept me hustling, I can tell you! I was so tired before he said I had. done well I didn t know how I was going to gef, home. But now I'm not .tired "a bits. Oh. isn't it won derful! And how glad I am I made Mr. Koblnson sign that reference. Mr. Fallon said Miss McBride- told him my reference was all that could be desired." "It was certainly clever in you.' Gladys laughed. And it was true! I wanted to blow my own horn, but I tried to say noth lng that wasn't absolutely true." well, now let s get nupper. -Cora is going out with William. He couldn't come Saturday night because of his motner." r "Say. Gladys, whatever shall we do if Cora marries him?" 1 don't think you need worry. He s poor and has a family to take care ot, I wish she might marry him he's ait awfully nice fellow, and Cora deserves home. She s Just the sort to need one. But she has her mother to look after too. I guess there's no chance of their marrying." Then: "Isn't it queer that almost every girl I know helps support someone? The papers talk about our taking the places men should have because they., have fam ilies to care for. I believe Just as many girls and women help support a ramiiy as men. we don t talk about it, and they do." "What do the men want us to do starve?" Nellie asked. "No, I don't think they want that. But they seem to think many of us could live at home without work, or if necessary, go as house-servants or seamstresses, the only two occupations men have not come to think belong to them. Those and school-teaching, and so few are fitted for teaching." "I guess we have as much right to live as the men!" Nellie said indig nantly. "And I think girls do their work Just as well." "Some do Gladys replied crypti cally, then called: "Dinner's ready, Cora! Come on or you'll keep Wil liam waiting." (Tomorrow A chat about a woman employer.) Questions Answers Q.

ON SECOND THOUGHT BY JAY E. HOUSE. (From Philadelphia Public ledger.) Where Kindly Faced Cows Stand in tiie btrcam. Windsor, Vfc, Aug. 10. -If it is to be left to me, and despite the fact that -1 try to shirk the re sponsibility,- pretty nearly everything is left to me, rural Vermont is the only motoring paradise left. It is the one spot I know anything about not yet appreciably infected by the cake eater who shoots a high-powered car along the motor highway at a rate ot fifty or sixty miles-an hour. It is the only one which -is not messed up by those who tie a tent and a bedroll alongside an automobile and descend upon the country.- In a rile of nearly two hundred miles in Vermont I .haven't seen an emntv salmon tin nor the pallid re mains of yesterday's roadside lunch eon. Ana it is as nitie iniestea wim Henry cars as it is possible for any community in this broad land te be. I don't think we have seen a dozen Henrys in the day and a half we have spent in the state. And being unfash ionable and no place to put on a show, Vermont is not patronised to any great extent bj the road hound and his lady. Some day, of course. Ver mont will be discovered and spoiled. When one speaks of rural Vermont, he means Vermont. It is all bucolic. There is little nntracked wilderness and no great cities. Where mountains do not interfere with husbandry, it is a marcelled countryside. Where the mountains obtrude there is lovely greenery and great beauty. The Ver mont farmer has an au-tne-year round business and takes care of it. He doesn't cater much to the tourist trade. Except for an occasional tea roorr, there is no deliberate and cal culated effort to take it off the tourist. The Vermont farmer has a going concern of his own. In spring he makes and sells maple sugar. In sum mer he is busy with his hay and oats and dairy herd. Around Christmas time he supplies the countrv with Christmas trees. Later in the winter ne looks over the woodlot and makes up his mind to release a little mer chandise lumber. We broke into the state west of St. Albans and drove across it to Bt. Johnsbury, on the east ern border, turning soutnward alon; the Connecticut river, wntch we shall follow into Massachusetts. We have been on only one detour, and no really bad road. Vermont has no hard roads to speak of, but a great network ot snaie nignways, well kept up. trans, figure the state. They are a bit choppy in (places, but one can get over them at a good rate or speed if he cares for it. The contingency that a heavy truck suddenly will thrust its nose from a side road appears re mote. We haven't sean a truck" all day. My passion for computation is well known. I figure that heavy trucks popping suddenly out of side roads raise more arooseflesh on the American people than all of the other agencies 01 gooseilesn combined. We slept last night In Jef fersonvllle, a village of 500 population between St. Albans and St. Johnsbury. I mention Jeffersonville because the knowledge that such Ijiwns still exist is worth disseminating. 60 far as I could learn, no name in that village carries a string of massed consonants, no throat is capable of uttering a guttural sound. I did not hear a double nega tive nor note-a split infinitive. P bably there are a few scattered around, but I didn't hear" them. And in that town of S00 persons there sn't a billboard or a motion-picture theater. Shortly before dinner I went uptown to submit myself to the kindly ministrations of a barber. I was told I would find a shop in a certain grocery store. I found the store and a shop in an inside room. But there was no barber. I -questioned the grocer as to the existence" of sueh facial artisan. "He was here awhile this afternoon," said the grocer, ""but he took his car and drove away; I don't suppose he'll be back." In -the rear of the hotel as the shades of eventide fell I came upon a man milking a Jersey cow. We fell Into casual conversation and I com mented in a favorable waji upon the pulchritude of the bovine lady. I know something of cows and am able to discuss them intelligently. I found that in complimenting the cow had touched the secret spring that guard ed the owner's confidence. He told me the cow's name was "Molly" and that she was the fourth in her line. He had owned her mother, her grand mother and her great-grandmother. He owned her offspring. The name had descended. He had called them all "Molly" and would continue to do so ag long as the line was perpetuated. TVint was his pride and Joy.

In rt -ttitllv miwtt Ira the five or six years last past. He used to be the editor bf the St. Johns bury Gazette. I didn't know he had sold the paper and I went in to tell him I like his stuff. Every once in a, while somebody comes into the office at home and tells me- ne likea my stuff; I like to- pass that sort of thing along, so I went in to tell Pelley. Now. in nearly every story Pelley has written the St. -Johnsbury Gazette figures as the Paris Times. And ia nearly every story Pelley has drama tized himself as Sam Hod, the editor of the Times.. So I wept into the edi torial room of the Ganette and askel for Sam Hod. It was a very clever crack, but it didn't take. The editor ial room turned a blank and puzzled face toward me. It said, tn effect, that nobody of the name Of Sam Hod worked on that paper or bad ever worked on it. Then I diagrammed my clever crack, and the light broke thru.. They told me Pelley sold the Gazette some years ago and waa no longer connected with the paper.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNALS-THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 17, 1922 r:. 6A mi ana csai mgm o mmss o on ob o o LOSE FIRST GAME Solons, Back Home, In Swat fest With Muskogee Mets. Took Lead Twice But Visitors Fashed Ahead and Won. The first game of the series Vith Muskogee yesterday was a swatfest, the Mets finally winning. 8 to 6. More than once the Solons were in the lead and there was a tendency to keep the result in doubt but Luschen had a terrible time in the seventh when the visitors put the game on ice by scoring four runs on as many hits, an error, a hit batsman and a wild pitch. The Solons collected a total of a dozen hits off Joe Williams but the big hurler grew stronger toward the finish and once given a comfortable lead held it. The hitting of Wetzel. Muskogee out fielder, featured but there was a lot of base clouting done during the day. The Cooley Clan Jumped in the lead by scoring once in the first inning. Peterson singled and was sacrificed to second by Bockskopf. Rose flew out but Cassldy Juggled Strohm's grounder and the Dutchman crossed the plate. This was promptly over come in the next inning, however, when, after Brauchle had singled and gone to second on a sacrifice. Old Man Wetzel drove one of Luschen's curves over the left field wall. It was a peach of a wallop which lost no time In getting out of the lot. being a drive that did not go very far in the air. Solons Recovered the lead. In the third round the Solons staged a rallv which 'ordinarily would have won the game. Horn tripled to start it. Luschen popped to the infield but Peterson came thru with his second hit of the day, a single, and Horn cored.

Benn singled and scored when Brosa lollypopped one to right field for three- bags. Bad Inning for I.uacben. Altho Bross was allowed to expire at the third station, the Solons had managed to maintain their two-run lead and the situation wasn't so bad. But things looked different after the seventh. Williams led off with a sin gle. Rabbitt allowed a third strike to be called on him, but Wholstadter singled, scoring Williams, and went to second himself when Horn let the ball go thru him. Luschen then did the unfortunate act of slanting one too close to the Muskogee manager. Cor gan wasn't sure tt hit htm but Wo mack permitted him to go to first. Brauchle singled, sending Wholstadter home with the tying run. The knot held fast while Clanton was popping to Strohm. but slipped when Wetzel hit his second double. The hit tried to go over the right field fence and both Corgan and Brauchle scored. The Mets made their final run In the ninth when Corgan was safe on an error by Strohm, advanced to third on Brauchle's double, a hit and run play assisted by Clanton. With two gone in the ninth. Pierce went In to bat for Peterson and drew a walk. Bockskopf came across with his third single, sending Pierce to third, but Rose ended the game by hitting a hot one to Cassidy and forc ing Bockskopf at second. The Solons filled the bases in the fourth, with one down, when Strohm nipped the rally by ramming a drive in Wholstadter's hands. The drive resulted in a aouDie play and the side was retired.

PLAY DOUBLEHEADER FRIDAY V Solons and Mets Must Play Off Game Tied on Former Trip. Because the second game of the last doubleheader on a former trip ended with the score tied 1 and 1, the Musko gee Mets will be forced to stage an other double bill with the Solons here Friday, Manager Cooley announced last night. There was a desire to play the extra game today but Cooley held out for Friday in order to stand a chance of securng a larger attendance. The Solons. tho they lost, gave the Mets a battle royal yesterday and went the visitors one better in the number of hits obtained. There' is no question but that Muskogee has one of the best teams in the league but the lowly Solons have always managed to force the Mets to the limit on each visit here. Clanton, first baseman, and Rabbitt, center fielder, are two Muskogee players who are due for a trvout in the American League this fail. Clanton is easily the best first sacker In the Barbour circuit, wnue Rabbitt is fast and a good hitter. Cooley is trying his best to strengthen the Solons but has been unable to do so because good ball players cost real money and Cooley hasn't got it. The attendance yester day was weak. .The receipts were not large enougn to pay me vianurs uieu guarantee. Tuesday was pay day for thn members of the club but the play ers are waiting and hoping that their money will come from somewnere. in the hope of getting it, Cooley has wired Barney Cleveland for permis sion to play a doubleheader Sunday with Sapulpa. The Yanks come Sat urday, and if a double bill is played Sunday. Monday will be an off day for each club. As a result of the double attraction with the Mets. tomorrow will not be ladle's day. The first game will be called at 2:30 o'clock. GO AHEAD WITH FIGHT PLANS Despite McCray Order, Tickets for Dempeey-Brennan Bout on Sale. Michigan City. Ind., Aug. 17.
