Durham the Sensation.

Little Durham was the big sensa-
ton from a Spokane point of view.
On the first play of the game he inter-
cepted q forward pass over near the
sidelines and ran 35 yards to Wenat-
chee's 11-yard line, where he was
tackled. On the first play for Spo-
kane Shields fumbled and Foster,
picking up the ball, raced 100 yards
for touchdown. He was desperately
chased by Captain Railsback, who is
a strong sprinter, but held his lead,
Foster then missed an easy try at
goal
The Spokane boys came back with
the right spirit and the two teams
fought desperately on fairly even
terms for u minutes. Foster was
tackled out of bounds by Gallagher
for a loss and then punted high to
Durham. The little fellow caught
the ball on the run and never break
ing his speed. twisted, shifted, ana
darted through the whole Wenatchee
team for a 65-yard run and touch
down. He made the goal, and Spo-
kane was in the lead.

HIGHEST Of ALL
ARCTIC PEAKS
MOUNT MCKINLEY ONLY $50
MILES FROM ARCTIC CIRCLE
AND is VERY DIFFICULT OF
ASCENT.

Mount Mckinley stands in latitude
63 degrees, longitude ISL degrees
north, in the center of the great
Alaskan wilderness that lies south OF
the Yukon river. 1t forms the apex
of the greatest watershed in Alaska,
says Golfers Magazine.
From the melting SHOWS of this
mountain and it's fellows flows the
mighty Sushitna, "The River of
Sand of the Aleutes, which empties
into Cooks inlet, 140 miles to the
south.
From the northern glaciers the ia
nous Kusgoquim flows westward
400 miles through twining channels
and dismal forests of spruce to the
salt marshes of Bering sea.
Northward the melted SHOWS flow
155 miles via the Kantishna and Ia
mana rivers to the Yukon, while to
the westward streams in untold thou
sands cool the North Pacific ocean
through Cooks inlet.
Wilderness of Canyons.
East of Mount Mckinley the Alas
kan range broadens out into rolling
sheep mountains, but to the south
westward the range is a wilderness
of thousands of deep canyons and
great snow-capped peaks that extend
in an unbroken line $40 miles to
Lake Illiamna. But for this one pass
the range would sweep in a grand
curve from the mountains of eastern
Alaska to the Aleutian islands, a dis
tance of over 1000 miles.
AS Mount Mckinley lies only 2SO
miles from the Arctic circle, it is by
far the highest northern peak in the
world.
Before the white man came the
mountain was called Traleika by the
Aleutes, the weird stories have come
down through the centuries telling
of mighty eruptions and clouds Of
smoke and flame that came from
Traleika's head There is no scien
tific proof, however, to bear ou
these legends, as the mountain, sc
far as known, has no crater and rises
in the shape of a huge ice-cappet
ridge of solid granite.
Guessed Its Height.
1t was in 1898 that the "gold rush
brought Americans into the Alaskan
range, and while Bolshoy is visibl,
from Cooks inlet, $50 miles away
no white man has seen the mountain
at closer range. In 1898 w. A. Dicke.
crossed over from the Copper rive
| country, and, with the wonderful
courage and indomitable will of tn,
American prospector launched frai
raft on the treacherous waters of tn,
Sushitna river.
His journey down the river to tn,
sea took him past the southern foot
hills of the Alaskan range. Seem.
Bolshoy for the first time, he name,
| it Mount Mckinley, and estimated it
height with remarkable accuracy a
10000 feet. Dickey then sent hi
rough drawings and data to the Nev
York Sun, where, falling into tn
hands of the noted geographer, Cyru
c. Adams, they were placed on rec
ord.

Foster was the star for the visitors.
This big 175-pound fullback is in
class by himself among the high
school backs of the northwest in run
ming with the ball No man has
eeen seen in this country that is his
equal unless it be Grover Harrington,
and Harrington was no better. 1t was
seemingly impossible for the Spokane
tacklers to bring him down. The only
way they could get him on the long
end runs was to force him out of
bounds, and that they must have done
half dozen times during the game.
He would elude the tackler If he had
the start in spite of sin. Tweet and
Koehler were two mighty good backs.
Lake played timidly and with bad
Judgment, but he had the confidence
of his team and was full of life.
Both teams worked the forward
pass successfully several times, but
Wenatchee failed three times, while it
proved to be a winner for Spokane
every time tried. Durham might be
criticized for not employing it more
often, although he must be credited
with picking winning plays with good
judgment yesterday.
Foster generally outkicked Edris,
although the Spokane boy did we'll,
especially considering his crippled
condition.

zone Touch of Nature Makes the
Whole World Kin"

When a rooster 6nds1a big fat worm
he calls all the hens in the farm yard
to come and share it. A similar trait
OF human nature is to be observed
when a man discovers something eX
ceptionally good-he wants all his
friends and neIghbors to share the
benefits of his discovery. This is the
touch of nature that makes the whole
world kin. This explains why people
who have been cured by Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy write letters to
the manufacturers for publication,
that Others similarly ailing may also
use it and obtain relief. Behind
every one of these letters is warm
hearted wish of the writer to be of
use to someone else. This remedy is

The solid earth is being constantly
strained by the varying weight OF
tidal waters and ice accommodations,
by changing air pressure, by the pull
of the moon and the sun, and by ex-
pansion and contraction from alter
nations of temperature. by dehec-
tions of the pendulum, Prof. Hecker
of Potsdam has recently shown that
the moon causes in the solid earth
two tides daily of about eight inches.
In the Kimberley diamond Ilelds OF
South Africa it has been found that
the earth's crust is never at rest, aud
sensitive apparatus at kenilworth
Observatory has indicated one undu-
lation daily instead of two, evidently
connected with the sun instead of the
moon, the range being more than
eight inches. This rise and fall, vast
~ exceeding the movements in any
earthquakes, pass unnoticed because
they are very grad ual. Besides this
daily movement an annual one has
been observed, probably due to the
influence of the seasons.
Three classes of diseases Of metals
were defined by late lecturer at the
Royal Society of Arts In London.
The first class, diseases of treat
ment," embraces metals that are
correct 10 composition and otherwise
satisfactory in quality but have been
made weak or unsuitable by improper
heating or mechanical treatment,
either by user or producer. "Diseases
of composition, which form the
next class, result from the presence
of substances that should either be
absent or present in smaller quantity.
The third class is "diseases of de-
cay" and it depends on the action OF
outside causes, chemical or mecban
ical, that lead to deterioration.

CYCLE HAS
THE SPEED RECORD
[unIted Press Leased WIG !

Los Angeles, April i9.-Jake de
Roster is today the premier speed
marvel of the world. On the Coli
scum track yesterday he established
the marvellous record OF so miles in
81 minutes, 50 3-5 seconds, includ-
ing the time consumed by three
stops.
De Roster was using seven-horse-
power motor cycle. Eddie Lingen-
fielder of Chicago, on a single cylin-
der four-horsepower machine, was
four and a half laps behind the win
ner. The new record set by De Ro-
sier surpasses any previously made
by any owner propelled machine, in
Guiding automobiles and locomotives.
