crate use of one of the most deli
cate and dangerous weapons in
wOman's arsenal
There can be no rules laid down
for real passion. 1t is so rare the
world has not yet learned to CLASH
fly it, but all unite in cCndemna-
ton of the flirt.
There are hundreds of ways in
which woman can show the man
she loves her real feelings and yet
not be termed a flirt. If she simply
wishes to attract men for her own
amusement. the ancient cult of frills
and fripperies and sidelong glances
is as good way as any.
Filtration, in the hands of a
clever woman, Is shimmering
Damascus blade, wounding all
whom 1t touches. Welded by a
stolid, nsympathetic woman, it be.
comes a blunted weapon.
The woman of active intelligence,
cheerful, optimistic. courageous, is
the one who invariably attracts
men. She may have a snub nose,
yet be the most fascinating of her
sex
But however we may reason, 1t
still remains a sad truth that man
is in his emotional infancy com
pared to woman, and the eyes that
brighten at his coming, whether the
passion be assumed or real, are the
ones that sway his heart.

LEAGUE TEAMS
BREAK EVEN

Tacoma tickled Spokane on Sa-
turday and yesterday Spokane
Hckled Tacoma. The opening
game was won by the Indians in
Blapstick style-nobody played
hard. everybody was good natured
and there was just enough scrap
piness to make things interesting.
Spokane won by to 3, partly with
Umpire Wards assistance and
partly without it. Everybody hit
1t out for a base or two. Neither
Osborne nor Goodwin showed any
pitching form. But they must be
excused. as pitcher needs a few
games to get timber.
The Sunday game saw Tacoma
win s to 6, with Jensen pitching
against Butler. The game was
somewhat more interesting than
Saturdays. Wards umpiring was
freely criticized.

We have all seen the pretty girl
in the street car gaze expressively
az the young man across the aisle,
then blush, for no visible cause,
and look away.
Every woman in the car thinks
she understands that look. Some
smile. They are the ones who re-

a few look sad. Over in the cor.

Eliminates on natures wise pro-
vision for side stepping woman's
pride and mans selfishness, in or
der to perpetuate the race.
Coquetry is primeval instinct of
the woman, God given. Why, then,
should she be blamed for using it?
Filtration Is quite another thing.
The man or woman who deliber
ately plays at being in love is in
dulging vice. 1t may be due to
vanity, thirst for power. or a desire
to be admired, but the penalty is
sure.
She who Stimulates love to the
many will find herself at the last
loveless, and incapable of loving.
The woman who finds it necessary
to flirt to attract men has no real
qualities that would win admira-
ton unaided She must, perforce,
fall back on the age old feminine
trick of making eyes"
There can be no such thing as a
legitimate Irritation between man
and woman. Mental affinity, frank
comradeship, or similarity of tastes
may lead a man and woman into
close relations, perfectly wholesome
and legitimate. but, unlike flirting,
there is no pretense made at being
in love.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 13.-"The
passage of the law by congress re-
stricting the admission of Japanese
laborers In the mainland has practical
ly eliminated the immigration of that
class of Asiatics," said Commissioner
of immigration North yesterday.
1.-THE arrivals have dropped to al
most nothing at the present time. The
arrivals from Japan during last
month were ninety-four males and
twenty-one females.
During May about 300 Japanese
laborers arrived from Honolulu with
out passports for the mainland, but
they were all in transit and went to
British Columbia. The border is being
watched to see that they do not come
back into the United States over the
line.
"These figures do not include the
merchants, travellers, students and the
other privileged classes. They have
a perfect right to come and go under

VENICE, June 13.-Charles p. Wat
son, professional bareback rider who
came to Venice with the Sells-Floto
circus, but remained to accept posi-
ton with the Abbot Kinney company,
was drowned in the surf south Of the
Windward pier tonight. He was being
bers of the recently organized life saw
ing corps shortly before o'clock this
evening.
Watson's drowning probably consti-
tutes the most heartrending tragedy
that was ever enacted within sight of
the beach here and took place less
than 400 feet fdom where more than
score of members of the life corps
stood, absolutely unable to in any way
prevent his untimely death. With Capt.
P. M. Grant of the life saving corps
and a large number of members of
the organization, Watson had arrived
at the beach about o'clock to parti-
cipate in the first drill in rescue work
that the corps has had. All of the men
were attired in bathing suits and they
brought with them a light dory to
sea was running at the time and twice
the dory was capsized close to the
beach. --
on the third trial Andy Anderson,
who is still being lionized here for
having attempted to rescue the two
men who lost their lives in the wreck
Of the launch Boston several weeks
ago, climbed into the dory and was
followed by Watson, who, Anderson
states, insisted on. being the second
man. 1t now appears to be question
whether Watson could swim, for after
the frail craft had been shot out a
short distance beyond the breakers 1t
was overturned while the men were en-
deavoring to turn 1t about, and Ander-
son claims that Watson appeared per-
fectly helpless in the water
Spectators saw Anderson swim with
an oar to Watson, but little suspected
that the man was in distress. Ander-
son says Watson tried to grab at him,
but that the waves prevented them
from getting close enough to touch
each other. Watson then sunk out of
sight. Twenty minutes later his body
was washed In by the sea to within
forty feet of the beach, where 1T was
recovered by Capt. Grant.
Every available means to resuscitate
Watson was resorted to and for three
hours members of the life corps
changed places In working over him,
without any signs of returning life
rewarding their efforts. Watson was
about 80 years Of age and leaves a
Young wife.
