"The Tale of a Cow" Shows
How Russian Zemstvo Union
Is Backing Armies at Front
By William Philip Stoma,
(United Tress Staff Correspondent.)
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

the thousand and one activities of the
Zemstvo Union, a Russian citizen organ
ization composed of plain people and
gentry and bow it is backing up the
country.
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.

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.

INDIANS TAKE FOUR
OUT OFFIVE GAMES
Lead Americans by Half a
Garner-Dodgers Ahead
in Nationals
New York, July 13. 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

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

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.

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.

ARE THE CLANSMEN
ALIVE TODAY?
Beeent outbreaks of lawless night rid
ers in certain districts of Kentucky,
rho dragged both white and negroes
out of their homes and flogged them
nd adminifltaered other brutal punish
ment to them smacks of the old Kn
Klux Klan methods that are so strik
ingly set forth in D. M. Griffith 's pho
tosnectacle, "The Birth of a Nation."
This is the way it started, but con
stant niecesa made the offenders bold
nd bloodthirsty, and eventually, flog-
K'ng and ordinary maltreatment no
nger satisfied them and then com
mon murder and every other devilish
' jneans of outrage was resorted to.
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.

Monotony says our dictionary is that
which is "tiresomely uniform in any

In other words, the Oaks are monot

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

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.

Cleveland cracked under the strain

just when the New Yorkers were sup

Phillies crept up to within three gnmes
of the leaders.

for in advance of the fight.
Dillon, "the giant killer," will weigh
in at around 172, while his opponent
will have the advantage of a fen
pounds and an extra long reach.
Dillon's victory over Moran has made
him a favorite in tho betting.
Kelly to Show Up Toda7.
Chicago, July 13. Outfielder Joe
Kelly of the Indianapolis American as
sociation, was expected to make his
first appearance with the Chicago Cubs
this afternoon against ' the Phillies.
Kelly was known as the best outfielder
