Roosevelt Praises Feat.
High praise for the wonderful feat
of capturing these animals and get
ting pictures of the Bcenes is con
tained in the following words of j
Theodore Roosevelt, than whom mere
In probably no greater authority on
the subject: i
"Gentlemen, this has been such a
really, noteworthy exhibition that I
think it is due that I should say a
few words not only as a guarantee of
good faith, but for publication. To
tackle those beasts with the rifle is
one thing, but to tackle them with a
rope the way that Buffalo Jones and
those two New Mexican cowpunchers
did It, is a perfectly marvelous feat.
I did not believe it possible to rope
a lion as they did and to have caught
their pictures with a cinematograph
is a thing that has never before be
gun to be approached. They are a
really phenomenal record of a really
phenomenal feat."

SYNOPSIS OF THE ANNUAL STATEMENT OF

OF BOSTON, IN THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS,

Hlgli School Event Will Do Held 1YI-
day Without Fall.
Manager Devine, who has In charge
the big high school athletic tourna
ment, announced this morning that
that event will positively be pulled off
Friday night after being postponed
twice because of counter attractliis.
He also states' that he is willing to go
on record as predicting that the affair
will be tho most Interesting and ex
citing event in the history of Pendle
ton.
Certain It Is that he has arranged
a program that should stir up an au
dience. The events he has scheduled
range from wrestling matches by the
students to a pillow fight by a couple
of the faculty membors. One of the
most novel events will be the rough
and tumble in which each class enters
four men. At the expiration of a giv
en time, the class having the most
number of men still on their feet la
declared the winner. The rivalry ex
isting between the freshman and so
phomore classes will find an outlet In
a tug-or-wnr contest and In a class
rush.
In tho boxing and wrestling matches
some of the best athletes In the school
will be pitted against each other. In
the heavyweight division Devine,
known as Hackenschmidt, will go on
the mat with "Fat" Graham who
hns never had his shoulders put to
the mat during his grappling career.
Other bouts on the mat will be be
tween Carrol and Fergusln and McCoy
and Simpson. In boxing the bout of
chief Interest will bo between Brook
Dickson and Rich Thompson. Tho
former is in the lightweight division
but ho hns received instructions uu
der Bnrney Mullln who pronounced
him a "comer in tho game." Thomp
son is considerably heavier than his
opponent but lacks the letter's sci
ence. Both are aggressive and promise
to make the fur fly. Charlie Sturdl
vant will square off against Terry
while his brother Ivan the Terrible
will probably be pitted against Strain.
Fee and A. Jordan will furnish some
thing new to local sport lovers in the
form of a fencing bout.
The tournament will be a carnival
of clean and wholesome sport and an
effort will be made to have a large
crowd present to see the boys In their
stunts.
SELL CHILDREN FOR FOOD.
Oftprlnjr Are Only Salable Property
Remaining In Famine Districts.
That the only salable property re
maining to the starving people in the
Chinese counties of Nanhsuchow and
Mengchen are their children, which
are being exchanged for food is the
statement of Consul Wilder, in a re
port to the state department from
Nanking, China. In these two coun
ties alone he estimates the number
of starving at three quarters of a mil
lion. Outside the city of Nanking, 100,
000 famine refugees are without food
or clothing, and are sleeping In the
mud In the open air. Thousands are
even lying in the water, the living
mingling with the corpses of the dead
which the authorities have failed to
remove from the refugee camps.
In the famine districts, the people
are dying so rapidly that no attempt :
Is made to number the fatalities. By
Imperial edict, taxes have been re-1
mltted in three of the famine dis- i
trlots, and It is expected that similar
action will be taken throughout tho I
entire famine region.
Consul Wilder repors that the mon
ey contributed for famine relief is
being honestly expended. The Am
erican Red Cross and the state de
partment are co-operating In sending
the money contributed In the Unite 1
States to China, and much more is
needed.
