ANGRY WITH TURKEY
FRANCE SHOWS RESENTMENT
OVER LATE TRANSACTIONS.
Does Not Like Germany's Capture of
Contracts for Re-arming Turkish Ar
fiilery-Bur2lar Nurses Man He Has
Injured in Robbing Him.

Germanys victory in capturing the
contract for the re-armament of the
Turkish artillery threatens TO result in
serious disturbance of Franco-Turkish
political relations. The French ambas-
sador in Constantinople, NJ. Constans,
proposes to leave Constantinople soon for
Paris to consult with Foreign Minister
Delcasse. Meanwhile the Ambassador has
informed the Turkish government that
the French market is closed to any fresh
Turkish loan Tewfik Pasha, the for
eign minister, tried to compromise the
matter, offering to settle the Syrian rail-
way question in manner satisfactory
to the French claimants and to purchase
military equipment to the amount OF 81
100000 in France. The ambassador,
however, demanded the expenditure of
$4,000. 900, being one-third of the value
of the new armament, with French gun
factories and the complete satisfaction
of the French demands regarding the
railroads The Germans are thus for
The moment in complete possession of the
financial field and an trade has already
been promulgated ordering the purchase
of all the new guns in German factories,
but it has been decided only to rearm
sixty batteries at present, instead of ZAP,
as originally proposed.

ADMIT TWO STATES.
OKLAHOMA AND NEW MEXICO
TO ENTER UNION.
Senate Passes Statehood Bill admitting
Oklahoma and Indian Territory az
One State and New Mexico as the
Other-Arizona Is Left Out in Cold.

Two more stars We're added to the
nag by the Senate Tuesday, Okla
homa and Indian Territory. Joined.
were admitted as one State. and New
Mexico as another For a long time
1t looked as if there would be only one
more star. for New Mexico, after be-
ing admitted, was rejected. Then by
some skillful parliamentary practice
New Mexico was admitted again, and
as soon as the House concurs in the
bill as amended and the enabling act
takes effect there will be Al States
instead of 40. No action was taken
as to Arizona, which will remain I'M
der territorial government for q while.
After Arizona had been left out as
unworthy to enter the Union, presum-
ably because of Mormonism and polyg-
amy within its borders, the Senate
passed the Statehood bill The bill
admits Oklahoma and Indian Territory
under the name of Oklahoma 1t also
admits New Mexico. BY the terms of
the bill the sale of intoxica ting liquors
in Oklahoma is forbidden for 81 years.
Arizona has her wish and remains a
territory instead of being merged into
New Mexico.
There was no contest worthy the
name over admitting Oklahoma with
the Indian Territory annexed, but over
the admission of New Mexico the
struggle was long and fierce. 1t lasted
for nine hours and the end was reach
ed late this evening and then by the
close vote of 80 to 3S in favor of the
admission of the territory.
The fight on the admission of New
Mexico rs a separate State came af-
ter New Mexico had been rejected.
Mr. Bard, whose amendments admit
ting New Mexico had been once ac-
cepted and once rejected, struck out
the first sentence, so as to remove the
point of order against it, and again
offered it. 1t was adopted. Mr.. Kearns
of Utah, who had first voted FOR the
amendment and then changed, caused
the rejection Of New Mexico by a tie
vote, voting no on the final ballot.

every ruse, strategem and deceit wfich
would be justifable in actual fighting.
In these and similar phrases Charles
W. Eliot, president of Harvard Unlver-
sity, comes out in vigorous denuncia-
ton of intercollegiate football OF the
present Cay, in his annual report Presl-
dent Eliot declares ''slagging, trickery
and attempts TO injure players so badly
that they will be compelled to retire from
the game are resorted to by teams, and
conditions have come to such a pass that
something should be done. He says:
The crude and vociferous criticism,
blame and praise they receive keep be-
fore young men an untrustworthy and
unwholesome standard of public APPROX
al or disapproval The risks of football
are exaggerated and unreasonable.
THE main objection TO the game lies
against its moral quality. lntercolle-
gate competition has become a game in
which the actions of individual players
can often be entirely concealed, not only
from spectators, but even the umpire.
Coaching on the side lines, offside play,
holding and disabling opponent by knee
ing and kicking. and by heavy blows on
the head, eyes, nose and jaw, are I'M
questionably profitable toward victory,
and no means have been found that pre-
vent these violations of rules. To strike
a player with clenched fists is rnleces-
sary roughness, to give him blow equal
ly severe with the base of the opea hand
is not. The weaker man is the legitimate
prey of the stronger. One should always
try to discover the weakest man in the
opponents line and attack him again and
again"

Cause of Evil in Lads.
Judge Mack and the Chicago public
school authorities are to experiment on
q dozen boys and girls from the juvenile
court in that city to determine whether
delinquency proceeds from pure cussed-
ness or from some bodily defect which
can be remedied. 1t has been noted in

hobbing orchards, under this theory
would be considered an unconscious eff
iort of the boy to supplement that de-
fective nutrition which in some way has
thrown him off his balance. The physi-
cal reasons tempting boy to play
hockey for swimming purposes are OBJ
vious. Theft of sugar should be con-
sidered an imperative call of the body
for carbon. DR.. McA1ilen of the child
study department of the public schools
offers these suggestions as part explana-
tons. DIR. McMillen will make thorough
examinations of the youngsters whom
Judge Mack will segregate, and measure
ments will be taken before the children
are sent to institutions. Defects will be
noted and treatment given which is best
adapted to cure them. This, it is hoped,
VIII result in a mental cure also. Super
intendent Bodine of the compulsory edu-
cation department of the school system
says that lameness, defective hearing and
sight, and lack of proper food are pro-
line causes of mental deficiency.
