Harvest Is Now On.


Harvest is now on in full blast
all over the prairie and the gold
en- grain will be kept rolling into
the sacks in a steady stream for
the next several weeks. Haying
was finished in most sections of
the prairie last week and this
week the headers are running in
every direction. The combined
harvesters purchased by Louis
Asker and j. L. Eckert were
started up the first of the week
and are grinding out the grain
at a merry rate.
Next week most of the thresh-
ing outfits will be in operation
and the prairie will be a busy
scene until after all of the grain
is harvested and hauled to the
warehouses.
The grain crop now being
harvested is without doubt the
largest produced here in years
and some exceptionally heavy
yields will probably be reported
as threshing progresses.

Plans were discussed as to the best
means for attaining their object, which
is to provide a place near the -Four
Corners where the boys could seek
shelter during cold weather and have
a place where they could at all times
obtain amusement. The idea is also
to have a substantial fund in order TO
stake" the boys who are broke"
Harry Brawlo, the treasurer, said that
he expected to raise from $3.50 to 5000
as a starter.
Messrs. Green and Konishane told of
some of the things that the associa-
tons of newsboys lave done in other
cities and said that 1t might be possible
to provide couches for those who find ii
necessary to be out early in the morn

were in an enthusiastic mood wher
they left.
Frederick Hertzog vas the prime
mover in urging the boys to get to
gether. He showed them just what tt
do and how to do it. The boys called
Fred a good fellow n cheered hin
when HI was through. They all agreed
that the association was going to be
success.

TRIES TO

COPS INTERFERE
She's the "Handcuff Queen
and Wanted to Jump Off
Jackson St. Bridge.

"Hilda, the Handcuft Queen show
ing at the Empire Theatre this week,
was stopped by The police of Newark
and Harrison in hel attempt to jump
from the Jackson street bridge this
room. .Shackled, both hands n feet,
she alighted from her automobile and
was Just about TO get on the outer rail
OF the bridge when the Harrison po-
lice forcibly drew her back and threat
ened her with arrest If she made the
jump. Philip Fisher, manager OF the
Cherry Blossom Company, was SO ar
gumentative that the police arrested
him.
SO insistent was Hilda in trying to
please the immense crowd that had
gathered that she went over on the
Newark side of the bridge and again
tried to make the jump. The police
on the Newark side were SO busy try
ing to keep the crowds from the edge
of the span that they failed to notice
Hilda slyly slip to the front. A great
cheer from the crowd quickly dispelled
what might have been a successful at
tempt, and grasping the woman she
was pushed into her automobile and
given instruction to leave the neigh
borhood.
"Hilda," who in private life is Mrs,
Hilda Hurjeson, is a native of Stock
holm, Sweden. At an early g she a C
quired the art of swimming, and then
found hat she could remove braces

from so many bridges tina she cannot
remember how many times she a ac-

to allow them time to attend the

-LANGFORD
MATCH CALLED OFF
McCarey Refuses to Yield to
Alleged "strong Arm"
Tactics of Britt.

Los Angeles, May Ibid the Ketch-
I-Britt-Langford forces combine to
give promoter T. J. McCarey of the Pa
cifc Athletic club what is known in
matchmaking parlance as the strong
arm?"
The developments of the past week
would tend to show that there was at
least an understanding" of some kind
between the Ketchel and Langford
camps Langford had promised to meet
Kitchel for $4,000 on a win, lose or
draw basis. the promoter agreeing to
pay Ketchel $4,000 for his end. Upon
the receipt of this news in the Lang
ford camp the first hitch made its ap-
pearance. Langford wired that he
thought he should have at least IS, 900
for his end and McCarey yielded to the
demand
The first inkling that the local pro-
moter and his assistants had that all
was not right was when they learned
that Willie Britt had made myster-
ious visit to Langford's home in Bos-
ton. A few hours later came a tele-
gram from Langford asking that the
sum to be paid him be increased to So
600.
McCarey knew the Ketchel- Langford
match was well worth $4,000 but he
grew suspicious of Britt and declined
to alter the original agreement. Then
the eastern parties began to get anx-
ious and telegram after telegram was
flashed across the continent. They all
bore the signature of Willus Britt.
+Langford will sail for London UNI
less you agree to his demand for IS.
000,' was a part of one of Britts mes
sages Thoroughly convinced by this
time that there was a screw loose
somewhere McCarey dropped negotia-
lions
The match is we'll worth $4,000
as it is second in Importance only to a
Jeffries- ohnson battle said McCarey
today. When I find out that every
thing Is square and above board I will
give Langford $4,000, but as 1t now
stands there are several things in con-
nection with Britt's actions that call
for an explanation"
Meanwhile Langford is being whirled
over to England on a fast liner, while
| Ketohel and Britt are in the east try
ing to throw all the blame for the fail
ure onto McCarey.

Two more prizes were added today
for the benefit Of the runners, these
being another gold watch and another

The people of Hobart are more excited
over the event, If possible, than the
people of Gary, and the streets will be
crowded when the runners pass
through. The favorite in the race in
Gary is Earl Koehler of the Gary high
school, who has had considerable ex-
perience in Narration races. The favorite
in Chicago is John Sugrue, who has
won most of the Marathon races in
South Chicago during the past season
Sugrue is hardly more than a boy, al
the present time. and believes that his
racing is making him muscle bound
so that the race at Gary today win be
the last which he will enter for two
years.
