BIG BID FOR BABY A
HOAX
General Yates Says Some Joker I'm
posed on Trenton Yatses.

TRENTON, N. j., Dec. "A few
months ago the thirteenth baby
was born to Mr.. and Mrs. Edward
P. Yates and shortly afterward,
when the fact had been published,
letter was received. saying Gen.
John T. Yates of Omaha would pay
$4,000 if allowed to adopt the lit
tie one, on account of the name
The offer was declined by the Tren-
ton Yateses.
General Yates came to Trenton
last night to officiate at a big initi-
alton conducted by the Woodmen
of the World and some one sent
word to the Trenton Yateses that
he intended to call to see the baby.
The Yateses prepared lavishly to
receive him and then learned that
he had gone to Philadelphia.
Before going he confided to some
lodge associates that someone had
written the letter for a joke. He
said he had children of his own and
was not offering $4,000 for those
of other people.

WILL YOU Be
At THE GAME?

Are you going to the football
game Saturday,"
Sure"
That's the question and that's
the answer that invariably follows
when two football rooters meet on
the streets of Spokane these days.
To say that Spokane is properly
enthused over the big game is put
ting it mildly.
Not only will Spokane fans turn
out in force to witness the struggle
between the giants of Denver and
w. S. c., but excursions are being
organized in Moscow, Occur
d'Alene and neighboring towns, as
well as from Pullman and the
homes of the collegians.

SPOKANE BETTORS

him because they relish the idea
Of white man losing the title of
champion of the world, but because
they are satisfied that Johnson can
defeat Jeffries.
On the other hand, hundreds of
local bettors are willing to wager
their all that Jeffries can come
back and be good enough to de-
feat the colored champion. They
do not contend that Jeff can re
cover his old time form, but hold
that with only part of his former
stamina, he will be able to over
come his dusky opponent.
1t loks like an even money bet
either way these days, with the fol-
lowers of Jeffries betting on the
fight and taking gamble on Jeff's
condition.

Bettors Of Spokane, outside of
the negro soldiers at Fort Wright,
who are lining up solidly for the
champion pugilist of their race, are
pretty evenly divided as to this
Jeff-Johnson thing.
When it comes to betting on a
prize fight, race counts little with
the man who is looking after his
money. If the white man wins,
the light hued bettor is glad, but
If he thinks he has no chance for
his money, the dark hued husky
carries the coin.
You can run across men in every
saloon and on every corner who
are willing to bet on the Galveston
Brunei to cop the big end of the
purse. They are not betting on

BARBER SHOP STATISTICS.

NEW YORK, Dec. John York,
barber of statistical bent, has ask
ed 100 men the important question,

He is preparing an article for a
Sunday paper on the answers he
has received.
Inasmuch as 1t is cheaper,
heater and UNNECESSARILY more
convenient for man to shave
himself, the reasons inducing the
majority of American men to get
shaved by expensive BARRIERS
should be interesting. These rea
sons, as they were given to the
New York investigator, follow:

Frank Kahn, the old-time 145-

former northwest champ. who is in
charge of the Occur d'Alene club,
will probably bring Don McPhee,
Rambouski, O'Rourke and O'Brien
to represent his club in the

McPhee is 135-pounder who de-
feated Rafferty, of Portland at the
armory last winter; Rambouski at

fighting for Cook; O'Rourke is a

STRANGE HEADGEAR

Hart, the Princeton halfback
who went to Princeton as the
New England schoolboy cham
pion shotputter, wears the
strangest head protection of any
player of the season. An i'm
mense air cushioned helmet
rests on top of his head, being
supported from his shoulders
by a heavily padded eteel rod
running along the back Of his
neck, and the lower portion Of
the support forking and being
strapped about his shoulders.
Hart is said to have weak
neck, but the support is SO
strong that the Princeton
coaches and trainer say he is
taking no chances when he
wears this bizarre armor, that
makes his head look twice it's
natural size. Standing behind
Hart, his head appears to be
only a few inches less wide than
the strong mans massive
shoulders.

LOEB TO VISIT WASHINGTON.
Belief That Fifty Additional Of
ficials Are Slated for Dismissal.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 2o,-Collector
William Loeb. jr., it is understood, will
go to Washington tomorrow to talk over
the situation in the local custom house
with President Taft and Secretary of the
Treasury MacVeagh. No more heads fell
into the official basket today but it is
surmised that the chopping will be re-
sumed when the collector returns from
Washington. Secretary MacVeagh is
known to be thoroughly in sympathy with
house-cleaning in the custom house
cleaner. got to work today on the office
Of James F. Vail, the former deputy sur
veyor in charge of the weighing division
who was separated from the, service
Friday.
The announcement of Mr.. Loebs pro-
posed trip to Washington gave rise to the
belief-which, however. Mr.. Loeb would
not confirm-that some new turn had
come to the investigation involving a
question of administration policy. Mr.
Loeb had announced that his weeding-out
process at the customs house is far from
finished. and 1t is generally believed that
when the AK falls again 1t will cut off
the heads of about fifty more government
employees. and some of them at least, ac-
cording to the general understanding. will
be officials of more Importance than most
of those already retired.
Customs house attaches expressed the
belief tonight that Collector Loebs visit
might mean conference as to the adj
visibility of criminal prosecutions against
a number of the dismissed employees.

House of Dreams.
New York Evening Post.

From the New York Evening Post.
Is there good reason for saying Of con-
temporary drama, what has been said of
certain types of journalism, that it ex-
emplifies the survival of the vulgarest?
Thought is wonderful, said Oscar Wilde
in one of his more lucid intervals. but
adventure is more wonderful still. Now,
the theater is full of adventures. This is
a partial explanation why men go to the
theater. Theatrical action becomes part
of the experience of the whole audience
An English playwright scarcely exag-
gerated when he recently declared that
the theater is literally making the minds
of the humber elements of our urban
populations; that it is huge factory Of
sentiment, Of character, of points of hon.
or, Of conceptions of conduct. The play
house is more than place Of amuse-
ment: for the poor as for the young. it
is the house Of dreams.
The sad thing about our dreams. when
they are happy, is the awakening
