Heat Yesterday
BY TIP WRIGHT.

KICKS TRAINING CAMP. Reno,
June 27-Although Jack Johnson
wants to keep up his weight and
yesterdays hard work in the boil
ing sun put crimp in this ambi-
tion. He announced today that he
will carry out his usual program,
doing about eight miles on the road
and then tearing into his sparrlng
partners for eight rounds of fast
work.
The big negro evidently felt the
heat yesterday and though he
pounded out eight miles over the
blIstering roads and spared before
the crowd that gathered at his
quarters, 1t was apparent that he
was a trifle listless and that he was
not az full Of pep" as he had been
at Seal Rock training quarters.
In fact, TIE close critic yesterday
would nave declared Jacks work
just a trifle sloyenly. His move
ments were lazy and the earnest
ness that was expected TO mark his
work did not put In its appearance
With the fight just seven days
away Jack says he viii go through
the hardest program Of the training
season. He will not end his hard
work until the very last moment
his trainers declare, and he will
tifrsw AZ much vim into II as posi-.

ROTTEN
SERVICE"

AS an instance of the need OF
better service on the Mantle line OF
the Traction company, it is shown
that last Tuesday afternoon the car
leaving Wall and Riverside at 5:25
registered III passengers, whereas
the seating capacity of the car was
AZ. This is certainly crowding peo-
pie like sardines in a box in order
that the greed of the corporation
for larger dividends may be ap-
peased. NJ
Since the Hill interests L9'e
taken over the Inland system and
the Spokane Traction an order has
gone down the line that the differ
ent properties must be made to re.
turn dividends at all cost. The first
step was the raising of the rates on
the Occur d'Alene line, and then fol-
lowed the effort to crowd the city
car lines so as to get returns.

OFTEN THE GOING

not remember because she's only
three. They take things as they
come, without complaining, just as
they take and love their poor,
little, worried tailor father, who
cant make very much money, and
their mother, who gets awfully tired
of poverty, sometimes.
1t was pretty hard for everybody
about q month ago in the Gladstone
home The little girls heard their
father and mother talking nearly all
night In the morninf their mother
went away to get work for herself
But Birdie has something besides
curls and pretty face, as has al
ready ben said. She's got what
men would call sand" There were
the two rooms to take care of {;
there was Edna's hair to curl and
face to wash, and her lunch to get.
That night when the poor, tired
little tailor got home he found the
table set and on 1t the evening meal
bread whihc Birdie had made by
mixing flour and water. 1t was
burned on the bottom; it was soft
on top and within it was dough. But
it was little girls very best and
the wearied tailor man sobbed as he
picked her up in his arms and
kissed her and then sat down and
ate some of the bread, just to show
that it was better than any bread
the richest man in the United
States could have.
Every day the little tailor
worked; every night he hunted for
his wife, after Birdie and Edna had
gone to- sleep.
One day newspaper man heard
about BRIDES bread. He talked to
her and then put a story, something
like this one, into his newspaper
That night the mother, who read
the story, rushed into the two little
rooms and over to the bed where
Birdie and Edna lay asleep and just
deliberately woke them up with
kisses. Then she kissed the poor,
little, tired tailor man and said:
Papa, I'd rather stay here with
you and them and be poor"
Some of the wrinkles went out Of
the little tailor mans face for mo-
ment, and he threw his arms around
her and kissed her and was happy.
Now the Gladstones are all to-
gether again, fighting the same old
battle against poverty, living in the
two little rooms and wearing the
same old clothes and waiting for
the day when mansions won't be
splendid until everyone under the
sun has got at least little house OF
his own: when silk dresses won't be
beautiful until every little girl has
at least got a good, clean ginghanl
dress, when the flowersi cut glass
vases in fine automobiles won't be
sweet and fragrant until every man
and woman and little boy and girl
under the sun has had plenty to eat
Maybe the story of how little
Birdie did her very best, even when
her father and mother were almost
ready to give up, will heip things
along toward that day. All these
little things DO help, and the day is
surely coming.

LEMON REBAT|NG
IS UNDER INQUIRY
Special Customs Officers on Duty
in New York to Watch
Fruit Imports
CALIFORNIA GROWERS KICK
Sicllian Shipments Are Under In
vestigation at Metropo-
lis Terminals
CALIFORNIA GROWERS KICK
Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, June 21.-Three special
customs officers from Washington are
spending the sultry month in June in
quiet waterfront observations at the
docks in Manhattan and Brooklyn, at
which Sicilian lemons are unloaded.
The purpose of their visit is to in
Vestigate reports that lemon importers
are not paying the full duty on lem
ons which they import.
The duty amounts to one and a half
cents pound, but the government
gives rebate for the proportion of the
fruit on each shipment that is deemed
unfit for consumption, and which the
importers are supposed to destroy. The
Investigators have been trying to learn
whether the amount of decayed fruit
is overestimated when the duties are
computed.
The proportion OF decayed fruit has
been unusually large of late, accord
ing to the customs returns. On many
shipments from % to 80 per cent of
the cargoes have been reported as un-
fit and rebates to that extent have
been given to the importers.
The importers say the increase in
the proportion of decayed lemons from
Sicily is due to unfavorable weather
affecting the crop in that country.
They say that Jealous California lemon
growers made the complaints which
were the immediate cause of the pres
ent inquiry. The California growers,
it is said, are trying to put an end
to the giving of rebates. If this is
done, the importers say, the Califor-
mans would put UP the price of lem
onS.

Los ANGELES DEMANDS
LOWER FREIGHT RATES
Southern California JobberS Con-
test for San Joaquin
Valley Trade

SAN FRANCISCO, June PA hear
ing was given today by the state rail-
way commission in the contest between
the merchants of San Francisco and
Los Angeles for the trade of the San
Joaquin valley.
The associated jobbers of the south
ern city are asking for a readjust-
ment of the present freight rates on a
mileage basis, which would eliminate
the existing differential in favor of
San Francisco.
Stockton also is party in the case,
its merchants asking that the rates be
so adjusted that it may become the
distributing point for the central part
of the state.
At the opening of the session pro-
test against involving all the freight
tariffs of the state in the controversy
was made to the commissioners by At
torney Seth Mann, representing the
traffic bureau of the Merchants ex-
change. The commission, however, re-
fused it's request to limit the scope
of its inquiry.
William r. Wheeler, manager of the
traffic bureau of the Merchants ex-
change, testified that the present rates
really Disseminated in favor of Los
Angeles. Formerly the meeting point
of rates, northward and southward,
was at the summit of the Tehachapi
grade, but it had moved south until
it is near Delano. He thought a fair
adjustment would be to fix it at Mo-
lave.
