Petrograd, June 14. (By mail.) This is the tale of a cow. Believers in tbs transmigration of souls would do well to- read it because it relates how Bossie, good and gentle, lost her life on the Russian battlefield and came hack to it again as a pair of boots. Likewise the story explains one of g v r , t v - .

Bossie, among a large number of cat tlo grazing along the Russian battle front, met her death one fine morning by being too close to au Austrian shell when it exploded. There were so many dead cattle that the General Stuff fi.lt it a pity to let all the hides go to wnsto, s0 the attention of he Zemstvo Union was called to the matter. And the Union went into the hido- anilllllllg Business. " iiiuiiq ivuiurr nun ipnrnni mnirAo boots, boots being one of the articles with which the Zemstvo is helping equip the army.1 So the Zemstvo de cided to open a tannery of its own. But tanin was scarce and hard to get. Russia had depended upon Ger many for practically all her chemicals and tho war hnd cut off tanin along mm muni everyiuing else of that na ture. About this time tlin frnvnrtimant called the Zemstvo 's attention to a tanin iiiotory down near Kiev, i.ll0 since hos tilities began. Among the specialities mobilized by the Union are tho Rus sian (hemists so some of these were sent down to open up the tanin works. J'hey did. instead of an output of G 000 to 12,000 poo.ls (a pood is 3(1 ("linos; per month as turned nut by this factory in pence tisies. th Z.m. stvo workers made it yield 17,000 poods or a 00 per cent increase.

Showing that nothing is impossible to a team with a fighting head, the Cleveland Indians have taken four out of five games from the New York Yankees on the Yankee grounds since Sunday and today lead the league by the scant margin of half a game. On paper tho Yanks should have fat tened at the expense of the Forest City club swingers. They had eight pitch ers all ready for action Cleveland had but three of its consistent winners in shape. The Yanks were up and coming strong while Cleveland, leading most of the time since the opening of the sea son, was supposed to have been pretty well shot. But they were far from it. In the National, the Dodgers, lead ing the league, have been losing ground and today hold their place by but three gnmes as against four and one-half on Monday. The Phillies and the Braves are still having their merry battle for second place, with the honors going to Pnt Moran and his men by a game and one half. The Cubs have been pushed from fourth to sixth place, New York and Pittsburg each moving up a notch. Hard on tho heels of the Donovan crew in the American are red hose out fit. The .white Sox and Senators, Tig ers, Browns and Athletics remain un changed in the standings and prospects. Golfers Practicing'. Del Monte, Cal., July 1.1. Crack golf ers of California arrived here today and immediately began practice play pre paratory to the western championship tournament which begins next Monday on the Del Monte Country clnb " course. Tomorrow a team will be selected to represent the California Golf associa tion in the Olympic cup four ball team match Saturday. Erwin Armstrong, Jack Neville, Douglas Grant and Hcin- rich Schmidt are generally picked for tne team. On Saturday the eastern entrants. who will be comparatively few, will ar rive. Hoover Bankhead and Ned Saw yer are expected to be tho best of the easterners. Because of his performances in pre vious western championships, Sawyer is picked by many as the favorite for the tronhv. With Neville, Grant, Armstrong and Schmidt all going strong, however, the Chicago crack is expected to receive a sfron !! Society began to gather today for the contest and one of the most brilliant assemblages Del Monte has ever seen is expected to make up the gallery next wees. . Rooking for Successor, Oakland, Cal., July 13. Frank Dil Ion, former leader ot the Angels, and Del Howard, until recently boss of the weals, were considered today as likely successors to "Rowdy" Klliott, who has resigned his job as manager of the Oaks. As rrank I.eavitt, owner of the Oaks, is in I.os Angeles at the meeting of league directors, no choice is likely to be made imemdintely. Klliott will continue as acting man ager until a good catcher is secured to tako his place behind the bat. Klliott. is is understood, can go to nnv one of four clubs in the big brush. He is snid to have offers from two clubs in the National and two in the American league. Klliott will be released to one of them as soon as a trade can be negotiated. t Watching the Scoreboard Pacific Coast League Standings. W. L. Pet.

Distance and time lend enchantment and the followers of the "Invisible Em pire" of today do not have the halo of romance about them that marked the Clansmen of the early after-the-war per iod, but if not promptly taken in hands they might degenerate into just such on organization. It is also said that the present night riders effect practically the same dis guise as did the Ku Klux Klan the long, ghostly hood and shroud and the white covering tor their horses. This adds a new impetuous to the do ings of the original Ku Klux Klan, as depicted in "The Birth of a Nation," and will strike a note of reality to those newer generations who may regard the secret organization as somewhat of a myth. now went, there to be transformed 'into as solid a pair of bouts as soldier ever trod in. Thus it hnppenod or might very well have happened that a young trooper, nt'ii-miiu in jus new uoots, stood by a certain old shell-hole near the Russian front a f'w months later. f they pinched him a bit he blamed it on their newness; he never guessed it was Bos sie adjusting herself to her new con ditions. From dead cow on the bnttleficld to new boots on the same field, the cycle was complete. So works the Zemstvo. Up to the end of last year the Zem stvo liiiiin had provided the army with 35,000,000 articles which it had made or collected, plus ten million articles for its own use such as linen for hos pitals, shirts for pptients, etc. Among tne articles were 724,000 fur coats: 493,000 felt boots; 770,000 pairs of gloves; 7S2.000 pairs of socks articles made by poor worsers on Union orders, or workers connected with the Co-Oner- ative Societies mobilized through these organizations. Several hundred thousand articles are neeed, at once, at the front. The regular industries mnking these articles have their hands full and can not take on any more business. The Zemstvo steps in and, because it reaches out in to the far places of the Empire, because it knows by name every workman and every little shop in the land, delivers the articles short off. It divides the order hundreds of times, farms it out in lit Mo batches, to small shops and even private cottages, and the miracle is performed. In Moscow alone 10,000 poor women widows and wives of soldiers princi pally are permanently on the Union's payroll. Together with the Co-operative Society 36,000 women of Moscow are thus regularly employed. But the members of the Zemstvo re ceive no pay. It is all for Russia. Their time and their labor are volun tary contributions, prompted by patri otic motives. Princs Lvov, of Moscow, and a mem- Yesterday's Results. At San Francisco Portland, 5; Onk land, 3.

In other words, the Oaks are monot ony. They lost their eleventh straight when Portland beat 'em, 5 to 3. Doc tor Cook, in conducting an autopsy, would say the Oaks died of acute hook-wormitis. At Salt Lake the Seals got cigarette heart chasing around the diamond mak ing 15 runs. Old men like Kill Steeu, for instnnce, mndo three runs, whick means they had to sprint 360 yards. It was reported that the Salt Lake team was also on the field, but this could not be verified. Rube F.llis, of the Angels, started out with a bad error and wound up in a flare of glory by whacking a double to right in the eleventh, sending Jack son in with tho winning tally and beat ing the Bengals two straight. Yestciduy's big league hero was Tris Speaker banged out a tripple and three singles in the second Cleveland-Yank game, the blows helping the Indians to first place. The Red Sox hooked both games from Chicago and are now within two gnmcB of the pinnacle of glory the same be- ng first place. Cleveland cracked under the strain cracked out 17 hits for seven runs and two games, taking the lead from the Yanks on their own stumping grounds just when the New Yorkers were sup posed to be at their strongest.

Kelly was known as the best outfielder in the Americas association and it is re ported that President Weeghman paid 15,000 and gave two Cubs for him. Who the Cubs are is still a secret.
