sports among the amateurs who are not
allied with colleges or high schools is

ages.
The idea will be to promote all forms

various kinds. It is planned to hold an
outdoor meet in short time. The pur-
pose is to apply for admission to the
Amateur Athletic union.

Big STRIKE COMING.
10000 Pottery Workers Ex-
pected to Stop Work.

East Liverpool. O.. April 12.-Au indi-
cations point to a possibility of the
greatest strike among pottery workers
in the history Of the business in America
President Highest of the Potters
Brotherhood. Secretary Duffy and other
officials are using their influence to
prevent a strike but socialistic labor
agitators seem to be at work. The kiln
men are the latest to present a griev-
ance. They want $3.50 per kiln, or about
"a per day.
Dissatisfaction seems rampant in all
departments and Saturday may bring
the fated move that win paralyze bust
ness here for some time to come If
the men decide to strike, workers all
over the country, numbering 10000, will
quit work.

LOOMS MUST EXPLAIN.
Minister to Venezuela Has Been
Talking Too Much.

Washington, April 1.-THE various in
terviews ascribed to Minister LOOMS at
San Juan have attracted much attention
here. and the minister probably will be
invited to explain some of his utterances
if he is not able to enter u broad denial
Of the accuracy of the interviews. Re
Elections upon the personal character of
the president of Venezuela. are not re-
garded as proper according to ministerial
etiquette, and it is confidently hoped that
the minister will be able to repudiate
these. Otherwise it would be manifesLly
impossible for him to return to Venezuela.
even in the event that the issues which
led to his departure were satisfactorily
compromised. The prevalent idea is, no
matter how these personal questions are
settled, it will be a. long time before Il
United States minister resumes the post

Sergeant Donovan and officer Parcels
ton both officers were blushing- It hap
and when they reached the police sta
ton bot hofhcers were blushing. It hap
pened this way.
Mile Moody, who is the wife of Pie
Jordan, who is in the penitentiary for
burglary, entered the Palace clothing
store this morning and stole two pairs
of trousers. She went into the store and
looked at various articles under the pre-
approach her she would tell them that
she wanted to look at the goods and
when she found something that suited
her she would call them The clerks
were suspicious and they left her alone,
but a boy at the cashiers desk kept his
eye on her. He saw her take the trous-
erS and put them under her dress and
then told the proprietor v nat ne mad
seen. The woman was held and the po-
lice were notified at once. Sergeant
Donovan and Officer Parcels who are
both noted for their courtesy toward the
opposite sex. appeared on the scene and
took the woman in charge to escort Ter
to the police station Each of the Off
GERS took an arm, for they feared that
she might fall on the wet streets
The incident had caused q crowd to
collect and many people watched the Of
hcers lead the woman away. AS they
went down the street Mrs. Jordan nee
Moody said that she had to stop and
TX her stocking, which was threatening
to come down, so the officers allowed her
to stop and arrange matters. THIS was
done several times, much to the disgust
Of the officers Officer Parcels happened
to glance down during one of the stops
and saw the leg of a mans trousers
hanging down. He reached Tor the *-'id
in view and gave pull

said the temporary widow of Pie. =
Don't you go getting funny with me. =
Officer Parcels continued to pull, un-'
daunJed by the talk, and the more he
pulled the more trousers came into the
light of day Finally a pair of mems
trousers which We're marked at 81 came
out from under the dirty skirt. The
crowd yelled. Officer Parcels rolled the
trousers up and put them under his
arm.
They had not gone more than a block
further when Sergeant Donovan saw the
end Of another pair of trousers peeping
out from under the skirt He blushed.
put one hand before his eyes, and reach
ed for the end in sight, and Parcels
experience was repeated
Sergeant Donovan rolled the trousers
up and put them under his arm saying
something under his breath which would
not sound well if told aloud.
When they got to the station the dere-
1ict of'tPie'' Jordan confessed that she was
using the trousers as a hustle, but she
could not explain how they got there.
The police and the proprietors of the
Palace have their notion about the mat
ter, and if their opinion sticks Mrs. Jor-
dam nee Moody, may be closer to her
custard Pie than She thought she
would be until he was released.
