Enough Not Raised.

Says the Decatur Review: In Mon
days issue of the Danville Commercial
News it was stated that enough money
for the purchase of the franchise had
not been raised. One of the commit
tcemcn was quoted as saying that the
necessary cash must be forthcoming at
once if Danville wants to get into the
Three Eye.
"Broberg. boss of the Cedar Rapids
club who tried to sell his franchise to
DanviIle, has been worried because of
the Overtures between Danvillc and
Decatur. But DanviIIe people have be-
come convinced that they would not
he allowed to hold the Cedar Rapids
franchise if they did buy it, and the
Decatur club is the one they want to
purchase.
"A. l.. Frankenberger is at the head
of the amusement committee which
will probably make the deal with Doc
Childs. Childs wants $4,000 for the
club, and it is probable that the price
will be found acceptable to Danville.
Plenty of Interest.
Prominent Decatur men who are in
terestcd and have been interested in
the progress of the local ball club
think Decatur would be better without
club for year or so. One thing is
certain: Decatur will not remain out
of league ball long, because the inter
est here in the national game is too
great. 1t is a generally accepted fact
that if a winning club could be brought
here, the association would make
money"

WANT LONG BED SHEETS.

Is the demand for a bed sheet nine
feet in length merely a fad?
Attention has been directed to bed
linen specifications by the action of
the Oregon state senate in passing
bill requiring hotels to provide
sheets at least nine feet in length for
their guests.
Sope may regard this as a joke,
but it isn't. Texas has had such a
law for some time, and as result
the elongated seldom awakens to
find his tootsiewootsies exposed to
the crisp air of the morning.
The bill, which will become law
in Oregon if the house concurs in the
action of the senate, is sought by the
Protective Travellers association, and
is aimed at the crossroads hosiery
where the bed sheets frequently are
about the size of bath towel.
Anyone who has been even q
casual observer of sheets and Other
things that go to make up well-or'
dered bed knows that a six-foot
sheet will not satisfactorily cover 6
six-foot occupant.
In view of the fact that the aver
age restless sleeper will take at leas
half a dozen reefs in a sheet in thu
course of one night, three feet o
surplus canvas cannot be considered
excessive, and it leaves margin
with which to anchor it safely at tn
foot of the bed.

SAN DIEGO TO HAVE
+ WORLDS FAIR IN 1915
Company Headed by SpreckeIs Has
Already Been Incorporated.

San Diego. Sept. "a company cap
italized for 100000 and headed by
John ID. Spreckels proposes the hold
ing OF worlds fair in this city in
1915 to celebrate the opening OF the
Panama canal. The articles of incor-
poration have already been filed.
The movement is the result of an
investigation by committee OF the
San Diego chamber of commerce,
which has concluded that by 1915 San
Diego will have a population of Mt
least 100000 and will be amply able to
act as host in so notable a celebration
as worlds fair. The stimulus of the
competition Of the big ditch and also
of the proposed new railroad running
eastwardly from San Diego to Arizona
is depended upon for the city's growth.
The fair movement not only has the
backing of the Spreckels' wealth and
interest, but the cooperation of many
other of San Diego's richest men.

UNQUALIFIED ENDORSEMENT
II Is Given by Sverdrup and by a
Letter From Rasmussen.

Paris, Sept. 5.-A special tells OF a
letter written to his wife bv Knud
Rasmussen, who was associated with
Cook in Greenland. The explorer
writes: Il never was so much moved
in my life as by the success of Cook.
hoped to triumph myself" 1t said he
believed Cook succeeded because he
lived like the Eskimos. Rasmussen
listened to the testimony of the
EskimOs. They don't understand in
struments, but know how to make OBJ
servations of solar light Mrs. Ras-
mussen says her husband does not
doubt Cooks veracity.
Explorer Sverdrup came from Chris
tiana to congratulate Cook. The lat
ter followed the indications on polar
maps made by Sverdrup, who believes
Cook reached the pole because he did
not cling to the old route, which
Peary is now following. He. said Cook
had the good sense to follow his own
route. the only one possible on account
of the slow displacement of glaciers
north of Nansen sound. He said:
None but a mailman would think
Cook had not made a series of correct
observations. When he makes these
public, all doubt will fall to the
ground. The objection to the speed
made is without foundation. for I've
made twenty-five miles day.

COOK SAT- At
KINGS RIGHT.
An Unprecedented Honor El-
tended the Explorer
ENTERTAINED BY ROYALTY
Was Also "Sweated" Yes
terday by Astronomers
and Other Scientists, Who
Announce They Are Con-
vinced of His Good Faith

Copenhagen, Sept. 5.-Dr. Frederick
Cook dined tonight with King Fred
erik at his summer palace. The invi-
tation followed hours of talk with the
king Yesterday and was extended only
after the government had made the
closest possible investigation of the
merits of Cooks story. The verdict
of all Danish explorers is unanimous
ly in his favor
DIR. Cook sat at the kings right, an
honor never before allowed a private
person. Members of the royal family
listened TO every word as the doctor
recountcd the dangers and privatiOns
of the journey. The family was so
pleased that they remained in the
drawing room longer than usual and
piled him with individual questions.
The explorer had to undergo another
ordeal today when he was bombarded
with questions calculated to test the
accuracy of his affirmatiOns. He had
an interview with several scientists
including Professor Stromber. a lead
ing astronomer, who says that when
he is permitted to examine DIR. Cooks

the pole Orn OF. When the authorities
left they appeared 70 be thoroughly
convinced of Cooks good faith After
visiting in Brussels DIR. Cook will lee
ture lin Paris. and then return to Co
penhagen and sail for New York.
DR. Cook is the only intelligent man
in the world who fails to realize how
conspicuous his position is today
Minister Egan shields him carefully.
and while he is theoretically guest
of the government at a hotel he is
practically living at the American le
cation where he is kept away from the
crowds. He asks amusing questions
about what is going on. He wanted
to know about the play The Merry
Widow" and the size of Taft's major
ity. He will ship his papers from
Denmark as. he shipped them from
Greenland, in sections entrusted to diff
ferent vessels to avoid loss.
The explorer disclaimed his title to
unusual bravery. He says success was
due to the fact that he had strong men
and dogs for the final dash, while
others had weakened parties and also
that he did not take a starvation
route
As to the authenticity of his exploit.
which seems to have raised questions
in America, it may be said that in
Denmark the explorers surround him
and support him without question.
Instead of avoiding them as a char
latan would do, he spends every mo-
Al.
gerly his observations and the floes
and drifts.
They believe in him. Whatever the
rest of the world thinks Denmark,
proud of her Arctic explorations, has
put the seal of endorsement and belief
in DR.. Cook. The press accepts him
wholly. There was strong doubt be-
fore his arrival but his personality and
absolute freedom and candor are the
strongest factors in his support.
