FLAG THAT. PEARY NAILED:

Made In Paterson, N. j., and Presented
by the q. A. r. to Pole Finder.
The silk flag mailed to the north
pole" by Commander Peary was made
in Paterson. N. j., from a special
weave by local manufacturing COM
pany. 1t was made waterproof SO
that in the event Of it's being covered
by snow and ice the colors would not
run. 1t was on the occasion of
Peary's visit to Paterson FIVE years
ago as the guest of Judge Scott that
the Daughters Of the American Revo-:
luton became interested in a move
ment to donate an American silk flag
to him. +, ! d: y ..4 Il ~
The flag is not large. but it is Of the
finest texture, and it was woven SO
that it could be rolled into a very
small space. The weaving of, the flag
caused some curiosity In silk circles
at the time. but the probable use of It
was not revealed until it was com.
pleted and turned over to the Daugh-
tiers Of the American Revolution. It
was presented to Peary on behalf Of
the society by the president general.
Mrs. Donald; Mclean. ~!!ss s.
Commander Peary in thanking the
daughters for the flag expressed con-
fidence in the success Of hts next trip
to the frozen regions and assured
them that the flag would be raised
over the northern extremity Of the
earth's axis. .sas4E5s 4 - SIX s .-, ia

New York Overlooked Jennings.

1t is not generally known that when
Jennings was manager Of the Balti-
mores in 1906 Frank Farrell, presi-
dent of the New York Highlanders,
was urged to purchase his release.
Timothy Hurst was foremost in sug-
costing this move to Owner Farrell,
for Hurst, with keen perception, was
convinced that Jennings would devel-
op into one Of the greatest baseball
managers. At that time Clark Grif-
f1ths was manager of the Highlanders
and was SO Loyalty supported by Far
rell that Jennings suggestion was
promptly turned down. The remark
able success of jennings since then,
however, has caused many baseball
men to believe that If the Highland
ers had been turned over to him a
pennant or two would have been won
by New York. S~-et.s -

WHAT IS AN AMATEUR
IN WORLD OF SPORT7
Different Ideas Prevail and the Cues.
ton Has Long Puzzled the
Experts.

what Is an amateur!
All depends on what sport you are
engaged in.
If college athlete, you are not sup
posed to have ever contested for
money, not even for nickel offering
by your grandpa when you were q
kiddie of five.
If a trapshooter, you can compete
for money, but you must never have
sold powder or guns or had any firm
pay your expenses to a tournament.
If a golfer, you are barred If you
have ever competed for money, made
golf clubs for a living or acted as a
professional instructor for club, but
you can play in tournaments with pro-
fessionals.
In every sport there is a different
idea of just what an amateur sports.
man is.
To say the least, it is confusing.
The colleges are supposed to be
the most strict, but even there some
professionalism is allowed to creep In
In a roundabout way.
A college athlete may work all
summer in a harvest field and re-
turn a clean amateur, but If he plays
one game of baseball, and takes a
cent, he is barred from amateur cir"
cles.
That is, If they can prove it on
him.
Over in England they have been
calling a "simon pure" amateur the
man who played for pure love of the
sport, and who did not work for a
living.
We do not go that far In America.
II we did, Henry Payne Whitney and
young Jay Gould would be about the
only amateur sports on the job.
But yet, what is an amateur?

FOREIGN MARKETS
Unsettled BY
Threats OF WAR
(By Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-The sus-
picion of distrust of the speculative
position in the stock market spread
with a rapid growth today, and
brought the fabric of values down
with crash. The conviction was
quick in forming after the opening
of the steel market to the competi-
tion of last week that the stock mar
ket was in position that was arti-
fetal and was brought about by the
false assumptions of trade positions
and that various factors mad COM
bined to accentuate the weakness. A
serious view was taken in London of
the American disturbances as shown
by the heavy declines there yester-
day and during the New York holi-
days which paved the way for re-
newal of the downward course. The
foreign markets are also unsettled by
the revival of the fears of an out
break in the Balkans, due to Servia's
attitude toward Austria. Bonds
were weak.

CRAzED WITH r.
JEALOUS RAGE
COMMITS MURDER
CBy Associated Press.)

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. "a
Crazed with jealous rage, William
Hans, an engineer employed at the
Ralston Iron Works, shot and killed
Mrs. F. Woods, his landlady, and
William Ludford, another lodger to-
night, and then fired bullet into his
brain after procuring a new pistol
with which to end his life. Hans re-
turned to the house tonight as Mrs.
Woods was cooking supper and dis
covered Ludford with her. What oc-
Cured then is unknown, but in few
minutes Ludford ran out the back
door with Hans in pursuit, and as
Ludford endeavored to scale fence,
Hans fired three times, killing him
instantly. Returning to the kitchen
Hans shot Mrs. Wood. He then
turned the weapon upon himself but
the last bullet missed fire. Rushing
from the house to a nearby store he
purchased a new revolver and ended
his life at the room of friend.
