ESKIMO WILL SEEK POLE.
Boy Brought Here by PearY Will Try
for Arctic Honors.

New York, July IL. - Separated
from his native home for 13 years,
Meme Wallace, an Eskimo boy brought
to this country with five of his people
by Commander Peary from the Polar
regions, sailed today on the Red Cross
line steamship Rosalind, for st. Johns,
N. F., whence he will be conveyed to
his home in Greenland.
Before Meme sailed, the Arctic club
extracted from him written agree
ment that he would not again return to
this country and that while in Green
land he would not bears arms against
the Peary expedition. This was due,
it is believed, to the fact that Meme,
angered at the attitude of Peary and
the Arctic club in refusing to take
him back to Greenland, once safe in
his native home, might seek revenge
for the treatment he received while in
this country.
Meme So d he would organize an ex-
pedition of Eskimos to find the North
pole.

PRESENT WRITING TABOOED.
Uniform Method to Be Used in PhIla-
delphia Schools.

Philadelphia, July 12.-Both vertical
and Spencerian handwriting have been
tabooed in the public schools of this
city, and after this a uniform method
of penmanship will be adopted.
Numerous complaints have been re-
ceived from business men who can t
decipher the writing of their clerks and
applicants for jobs who have learned
their peculiar style of chirography in
the public schools.
For some time Superintendent Brum-
baugh has been at work on a plan to
unity and improve the writing, and
this plan was adopted at meeting of
the elementary schools committee.
A free, legible style Of writing,
slightly slanting to the right, will be
taught. Students, no matter how ad-
vanced they may think their flourishes,
will have to begin again with pot hooks
and ciphers.
According to the new code, writing
will be taught like calisthenics or a
manual exercise. The teacher will
clap her hands and count, and the en-
tire class will make letters with hooks
and tails and crosses simultaneously.
The exercise is intended to give free
mechanical movement to the arm and
increase the speed.

WILL DEPOSE SHAH.
Revolutionists in Persia Gaining on
Government Forces.

Revolutionists in Persia Gaining on
Government Forces.
St. Petersburg, July 12.-The Rus
sian expedition from Baku which land
ed at Enzell, Persian seaport on the
Caspian yesterday, is made up of l 200
Russian and 800 Cossack cavalry, with
eight field guns and eight machine
guns. Despite the correct attitude
maintained by the Russians, the natives
are demonstrating their unfriendliness.
The unopposed advance of Siphidar,
the leader of the revolutionists, and
Sardarasad, the chief of the Bakhtiari
tribesmen, towards Teheran, is taken
here to mean that General Liakhoff,
the governor of Teheran, considers his
force inadequate to engage in general
battle, and that he has decided to en-
ploy his Cossack brigade merely as a
guard over the life of the shah.
Persons we'll informed here regard
the entrance of the revolutionists into
Teheran as foregone conclusion, while
the deposition of the shah, which sew
eral times has been mooted, will now
arouse no surprise.

Mobs at La Paz Engage in Pillaging
and Looting.
La Paz, Bolivia, July 13.-La' Paz
is given over tonight to riot. The
people swarmed into the streets and
did much damage. The electric light
wires were cut and pillaging was be-
gun on all sides. Shots were heard in
every direction. The situation for for
eigners, especially Peruvian and Ar
gentine residents, is extremely serious.
The guards protecting the Peruvian
and Argentine legations were suddenly
withdrawn last evening for some un-
known reason. When this became
known, street mobs renewed their at
tacks. Senor Fozesca and his wife
had a narrow escape. They made their
way out of the legation and ran eight
blocks, finally seeking protection in
the home of the president of Bolivia.
Manifestations have been numerous
in public places, and at meeting held

president of Argentina, was held down.

1t is reported here that considerable
excitement prevails at Lima and Bue-
nos Ayres, and the Argentine govern
ment's silence in the face of Bolivian
protests is regarded as ominous.

TWO-CENT FARE COSTLY.
Roads Lose Heavily Because of Re.
ducton in Charges.


duction in Charges.
Chicago, July 13.-The claim of Illi-
nois railroads that the 2-cent rate,
while stimulating travel to marked
degree, had reduced the revenues of
roads from passenger traffic almost to
the ruination point, is borne out by a
comprehensive investigation by the
Santa Fe road.
The illinois railroad commission in
sists the law has been beneficial to the
roads. The latter say they have been
compelled to employ much additional
equipment and more help to handle the
increased travel, which did not, by a
large sum, compensate them for the
extra expense.
The Santa Fe worked under the
operation of similar law in Kansas,
where a careful record was kept for
the first year. The Santa Fe carried
654, 900 more passengers than it did
the year previously under the Scent
law. Meanwhile revenues from pas
senger traffic for the same period de-
creased 1927, 900.
Railway men say this does not begin
to tell the real loss, which is to be
found in the great expense for equip
ment and additional employees, the re-
Wis on of schedules and wear and tear
of property due to more constant use.

Government Troops Stop Advance o'
lnsurgent Army.
Pekin, July ia remarkable story
of the tragic fate of youthful pre-
tender to the Dragon throne and a
large number of his followers comes
through missionary channels from dis
tant Yunnan province.
Under the influence of Taoist priests
a prosperous member of the country
gentry named Chu conceived the con-
viction that he himself was descend
ant of the Chus' Ming emperors, and
his son, aged II years, the rightful
occupant of the throne.
He rallied the cansmen and his
neighbor t. the number of upward of
1000 men, variously armed with old
guns, bows aud spears. With the pre-
tender at their head, this insurgent
army marched upon Yunnan Flu, the
provincial capital, preaching an anti
Manchu crusade.
Near Yunnan Flu a detachment of
the viceroy's modern troops overlook,
attacked and routed the insurgents.
Several hundred of them are reported
killed and wounded. All the members
of the Chu family were promptly
slaughtered by the viceroy's orders.
The youthful claimant, whose head
was so lately adorned by the halo of the
Son of Heaven, was after his execu
tion, being paraded through the prov
ince in cage as an exhibit and warn
ing to all questioners of authority in
Manchu.

DAM THREATENS VALLEY.
Great Pathfinder Structure Said to Be
in PeriIous Shape.

Cheyenne, Wyo., July 10.-Reports
received here tonight indicate that con-
ditions at the Pathfinder dam at Alcova,
said to be the largest in the world, are
most serious. The dam is held only by
temporary dixie built on gravel foun-
dations. Seventy men are working day
and night to strengthen the dixie.
The government geological survey
has a force of. men scattered along the
river for more than 100 miles above
the dam. taking measurements of the
rivers flow to give indications of any
sudden rise in the stream.
Preparations have been made to dy-
Mantle the dam if the water carries

ments have also been made toward
warning the people living in the valley
below in case of danger.

There is a strong impression in New

will offer Governor Hughes the first
vacancy that occurs in the United

the appointment is regarded as conting-
ent upon the coming of a vacancy at a
time when the New York governor can
accept it. Many friends of Governor
Hughes no not think he would accept.

Strawberry Profits Good.

Wallowa-Strawb are a profit
able crop all over the Northwest, but
there are few places where they pro-
duce larger returns than in the Wallowa
valley. There are no large fields of
berries here, but there are many small
ones that are yielding immense returns
for the labor and investment which
they represent. G.. A. Miller last year
received nearly 5000 net from less than
one-ffth of an acre. This year he has
improved his fields and as the season is
one of the best he expects to greatly
exceed that yield.
