SHANGHAI. China. March 21.
More than 2.000,000 people are fac

having been rendered destitute by the
floods caused by the Iellow river, ac
cording to reports of the Shantung
International Famine Relief commit
tee, just issued.

people of this province are simple

During the heavy fall rains the
Yellow river broke through the dykes
which are in very bad condition, In
several places: the water In the
tall that reached above the water.
Now Shantung Is covered with snow
and Ice, and the stretches of water
which did not recede ate frozen and
the spring crops cannot lie planted.
According to reports of the Shan

committee. Shantung Is facing one of
the worst famines In hor history this
spring. Reports show tlmt Beven
million people have noen affected by
the floods and that approximately
two million will be In dire need In
the spring.
Last year three million dollars
local currency was spent In famine
relief work. Two-thirds of this
came from the Amerlian Red Cross
and the famine drive launched In
America.
Relief Fund Small.
This year the committee, which Is
composed of consular officials, busi

$450,000 for relief work, but addi

NEW YORK, March 21. In a few
particulars men have something in
.oinmon with horses. Some of them
even have horse sense. Yet the par
allel never Is carried to a physical
equation. You can drive a horse all
day and the average man about 9 4-5
seconds, all thcee watches ogreelng.
That Is one reason the writer Is
disposed to fear the worst In the
case to Ty Cobb, a gentleman of dy
namic impulses that prompt him to
wax caustic when any of his ball
players decide that enough Is suffi
cient and attempt to ease aff the pace
a bit.
Cobb Is driving his Tigers at Au
gusta as ball clubs Have seldom beon
driven before. Ills tongue might be
known lender the name of Simon Le
gree, Jr. He certainly wields It for
all the world like a verbal whip.
Wisdom Awaits Trial.
The wisdom or fallacy of his poli
cy remains to be seen. If some one
lopes around the bases In batting
practice Cobb Immediately lifts his
head and gives tongue to a wail of
protest. "Hustle It!' seems to be
his idea' of speaking as one man to
another. .
It Is our Impression that It Is very
bad business to race men around the
bases In a minor league park In the
early spring. With both ground and
muscles soft, a ball player can con
tract Charley horse with the facility
of a irani bier contracting four aces
at the essential moment.
We walched the Infield work out.
and here again was an utter ab
sence of conservative movement. No
Infield warm-up before a world's
I series game ever witnessed more her
i tic, wild-eyed dash and hustle, with
the sound of Cobb's approving voice
sending them on for more.
fbh I.Ikes Actlmi.
That kind of thing Is gravy for his
! filet of sole. rnllke-most southern
i ers. Cobb Is the soul of action and
I expects to see It In others. Hut what
he seems to forget Is that h could
i do a great many things that other
players could not. He ran still do
some of (hem for the simple reason
' that, old as he Is in baseball years,
Ms great natural talent for ball play
ing allows him to carry on.
' But why all the eicltement st this
early stage of the proceedings? It Is
all very well to bring your team
bark north with the Idea that It is
going to hustle from first to last
through the league race. Hustling In
the south gets you nothing but pains,
sches and a definite distaste for the
1 tank at hand.
All of which brings us to the point
viz . to wit and as follows:

Finances to carry the Douglas
County Concert Hand through the re
mainder of this year, were furnished
by the city council last night, when it
voted unanimously to Increase the
band's allowance from the city treas
ury to 1600 per year, to be paid In
monthly Installments of i50 as lunf
as the band remains well organized
and In readiness for concert work.
The allowance also Is made on the
basis of ten concerts to be given dur
ing the summer months, following
the same plan as was adopted last
jear when the band gave some very
Interesting entertainments which
were greatly appreciated by the peo
ple of the community. This money
will enable the band to go ahead with
Its plans and will eliminate the dan
ger of the band breaking up for lack
of funds. At the present time the
hand Is well orgnnlzed and with the
knowledge that tho city Is behind it
financially It will doubtless make
even larger plans for Its future work.
