17 TO DIE FOR PLOT
TO KIDNAP CZAR
ODESSA, Aug. 13. Sixteen seamen
and a petty officer are under sentence
of death here today as the result of a
revolutionary jdot framed on board
the battleship Ivan Zlatoust of the
Black sea fleet, by which it was in
tended to seize the Russian" imperial
family on board their yacht and force
Czar Nicholas to abdicate.
The conspirators planned to hold
up the imperial yacht while the czar
and his family were being conveyed
from Yalta, their favorite resort in
the Crimea, to Sebastopol.
The seizure, it is said, was to have
been the signal to the mutinous Bal
tic fleet to attack St Petersburg and
Kronstadt simultaneously, with the
object of establishing a limited mon
archy and a constitutional regime.
FRANCE WILL PROBE
WASHINGTON, Aug. 13. The
French Government vitally affected
' by decisions against it on important
chemical disputes in this country, has
asked for-a world's court to consider
chemical problems.
It has entered into correspondence
with important powers to bring about
a conference of government represen
tatives at Paris next Winter. The
purpose, as interpreted by officials
here, is to have these matters deter
mined by a consensus of opinion of
the principal countries rather than by
the dictum of one government.
Recent decision of the Depart
ment of Agriculture Pure Food Board
apply especially to French products,
particularly the rulings on the green

and on absfnthe, formerly conspicu
ous among imports from France.
It was said it was likely the Unit

NATIONALS ARE A SENSATION.
Washington Club Is- Fighting Every
Inch of the Way.
The one big feature of the year has
been the flashy stand Griff and his clan
are making for Washington, a city
without first division tradition. Bur
ied in seventh place through an aver
age of eleven seasons and Jeered as
another fizzle, this club has already
furnished one. of the greatest of the
game's surprises. There has been noth
ing like it in baseball, and you can
delve back to the day when Cy Young
was bat boy for the Roll Hornets.
The Senators have caught the vital
spark. Griff has pumped the old am
bish into their throbbing bosoms, and
this explains the mystic problem above
the worth even df a Johnson and a
Groom by the adding of a Moeller or
a GandiL
The vital spark is the one secret of a
pennant fight Let it fade out and the
argument is over. The Senators have
Shown consistent ability and above all
the heart to rally after losing ground
and again to rush the line which hurl
ed them back. They have made his
tory and deserve the . highest praise
which the sportive flock may have to
give.
FOREIGN GOLFERS COMING.
Braid, Vardon, Taylor and Massy, Pro
fessionals, Will Visit Amerioa.
Former Massachusetts Champion
John G. Anderson, now golfing abroad,
writes home that the United States
links are to be Invaded before the end
of the present season by four famous
professionals from the other side.
These players are the former British
chanpions, James Braid, J. H. Taylor
and Harry Vardon, and the French
crack Arnand Massy. As Harold H.
Hilton has promised to come over with
a band of amateurs to defend the
American national title he won against
Fred HerresbofC at Apawamis last fall,
It is seen that American followers of
the royal and ancient game are in for
some rare treats.
h The invasion will be a welcome one,
as Americans can still learn a lot from
the giants from the other side. How
ever, the visitors from the professional
ranks will get some rude surprises.
The native born pros, have improved
wonderfully during the past few years,
and more than one could now make a
game interesting to the best of the
Britons.
RIVERS WEALTHY PUGILIST.
Mexican Who Lost Questionable Fight
to Wolgast Has Made Fortune.
Joe Rivers, the Mexican lightweight,
who lost a questionable decision to Ad
Wolgast in their battle at Vernon,
Cal., July 4, has made $40,000 out of
his ring battles since January, 1911.
Rivers has fqught twelve fights all
told, and the $7,500 which he received
for fighting Wolgast sent his winnings
up to the above mentioned amount
Just a little over three years ago
Rivers begged Promoter Tom McCarey
for a chance to show his skill. It was
the day before a boxing contest at the
old Naud Junction pavilion, and one of
the principals had failed to show up.

was billed to appear in a twenty round
contest, and his opponent had disap-

peared. Rivers heard of It and called
on McCarey and said, "I will take him
on, Senor McCarey."
"Who in Sam Hill are you?" snapped
McCarey, looking at the little ragged
figure.
"I am Joge Rivers, avery strong boy
and good fighter," answered the Mex
ican lad.
Two fight fans who were present told
what theyiad seen the little Mexican
do in street scraps and in contests be
fore the Los Angeles athletic clubs.
"Call around tomorrow and I will
give you a chance." Before Rivers left
he had to borrow car fare from Mc
Carey. Joe was on the job next day
early and defeated Weber in three
rounds. Now Rivers Is the possessor of
several thousand dollars' worth of dia

Pitcher Wood In Rare Form.
Joe Wood, the Boston American star
pitcher, is so far the most successful
pitcher in the American league this
season. He has an average betterthan
that of even Ed Walsh or Walter John
son. Jake Stahl gives Wood credit for
having pulled the Red Sox through
when the team was not going at its
best and considers him the mainstay of
his boxmen.

Filipinos Who Can Climb

Toung students who are interested
in the history of our country are aware
that when the United States assumed
Jurisdiction over the Philippine Islands
many strange tribes of people came un
der the rule of Uncle Sam. Some wera
civilized and law abiding, but many
could have been classed under the
head of "undesirable citizens." Indeed,
some of the tribes were little better
than savages. Under Spanish rule
these people were given no opportunity
to Improve their condition, but since
Uncle Sam took charge schools have
been established, and even the wildest
tribes are learning the arts of civili
zation. Among these are the Igorrotes,
a tribe of Luzon, who were among the
wildest of them all. Recently a tribe
of sixty of these queer people were on
exhibition in London. Among their
accomplishments is that of being re
markable toe dancers, metal workers
and experts at tattooing. Both men
and women are expert spear throwers,
and the picture shows that they can
climb trees with as much ease as mon
keys.
New Blind Man's Buff.
When this game is played with care
and some little art it Is very amus
ing. The blind man does not have his
eyes bandaged; he needs them and all
his wits besides.
A white cloth is hung against the
wall in the same way as for.- magic
lantern pictures. The blind man is
seated in front of it on a stool low
enough to prevent his own shadow
from, being thrown on the cloth. At
some distance behind him is placed,
on a high stand or other suitable sup
port, a single lamp, and all the other
lights are put out
When all is ready the persons in the
party form a sort of procession and
pass one after the other between the
lamp and the back pf the blind man,
who is forbidden to turn his head. The
light of the lamp throws upon the
white cloth a succession of clearly de
fined shadows.
As the shadows pass before him the
blind man is obliged to name aloud
the person whose portrait he Imagines
he sees in profile, and the mistakes
made cause much amusement Every
one has the privilege of changing his
appearance as much as possible by
stooping, limping, making faces or try
ing in any way to make himself un
recognizable. Forfeits may be given
by the person guessed if desired.
Reason For Haycocks.
Farmers try to get their hay "made"
as soon as possible, so that It shall
escape the rain, for rain washes the
goodness out of hay, leaving.it very
poor food for animals.
That is why, instead of. being left
spread about the ground to dry, hay
is made up into heaps called haycocks.
Half an inch of rain means fifty tons
of water on an acre of land. If the
hay is spread about over the ground
all those fifty tons of water wash the
goodness out of the hay.
But if the crop is made into haycocks
these take up only one-tenth of the
space. Therefore they are washed by
only one-tenth of the rain water. In
other words, as you can at pnee see,
the hay is then washed by only five
instead of fifty tons of water- falling
upon it . " .
This Is the reason why hay is made
into haycocks.
Game of Still Palm.
This is played like blind man's buff,
except when he who is blindfolded
counts ten and says, "Still palm, no
moving," all must stand still.

SALEM, Or., Aug. 13. With a view
to having the hearing to be held here
