4s LETTERS IN HIS NAME.
Owner Has It Printed so None Of 1t
viii Be Missed.

Rev. Demetrius Elias Constanstin,
stinzicas vishanoff, of Salonica, Mace
donia, is visiting Baltimore.
He has 43 letters in that name of
his. This masterpiece of nomenclat-
ure will not, however, become a per-
manent addition to the curiosities of
the city. The Baltimore city directory
will not capture this gem, because
Rev. Mr. Vishanoff will only stay here
| for a short while. He will not try
to remain long enough for his name
to become thoroughly known to all
Baltimoreans
Rev. Mr.. Vishanoff does not depend
entirely on his memory for his name.
He has other things to think of. To
avoid annoyance he has had his name
printed in small type on large card,
| which he gives to persons he meets.
Thus he gives them an opportunity to
go home and study it up and then
pass 1t on to other patient persons.
| The name as printed here is copied
from one of these cards and is the
authorized version.

Dr. Vishanoff is physician as well
as a clergyman. He is said to have
been the first nobleman converted

man and a close adherent of the
Greek church, not only disinherited
him, but threatened to kill him. and

A Battle With ouicksand.

But for the slillful use of lariat
by Deputy Sheriff Tremble, Thomas
Peppin, his wife and three children
would be lying dead under the quick
sands of the Meadow Valley wash.
The Peppins in driving to their
ranch attempted to ford a harmless
looking stream. In a moment the
two horses drawing the vehicle were
caught in the drift of quicksands. The
struggling beasts were quickly swal-
lowed, and The wagon and its human
occupants were following rapidly when
Tremble rode up.
He uncoiled his lasso, threw it to
Peppin, who fastened the rope about
his wife's waist She was drawn to
safety and the others quickly followed.
Peppin was the last to leave, and
as he jumped from the seat of the We
hicle it disappeared beneath the
sands.--San Bernardino Cor, San
Francisco Post

SWIMMING TANKAT
U.C. PROGRESSING
Strawberry Canyon Plunge to
Be Ready for Use in
January

BERKELEY, Dec 9.-The new
swimming tank which is being con-
structed in Strawberry canyon by the
MIA is nearing completion and will
probably be in readiness for use at the
beginning Of next semester in January.
The tank will be open to the use of
all students of the university, who will
have free use of the towels and dress
ing rooms. A temporary bathhouse
will be constructed at once, but this
structure will be superseded by per-
manent and more complete structure
after the winter rains are over. The
pool will be entirely fenced in and un-
der the charge of a keeper, who will
also be constantly on hand to guard
against accidents.
The pool was designed by Prof c.
G. Hyde of the sanitary engineering
department Of the University of Cali
fornia and the details of construction
were looked after by the Contra Costa
construction company. The tank is
built of concrete and when complete
will have a facing OF white cement
which will make it possible to see In
all sections of the tank.
The tank will be 232 feet long and
IS feet wide, with a gradually increas-
ing depth of from 8 u to II feet. The
capacity OF the pool is 500,0 gallons
The water will be obtained from the
watershed of Strawberry canyon and
before it enters the pool will be per-
fectly filtered through system OF
sand, gravel and rock filtration beds
These are located on the lower portion
of 25e acres recently purchased by the
university. The price paid for these
lands was $l62,s4422
A constant flow of water will pass
/ through the pool and the overflow will
run into-a reservoir lower in the can
yon, which will serve not only for an
| extremely efficient system of fire pro-
lection. but will also be used for sani-
tary and irrigation purposes.

10 such an extent that they have rated
him on an equal footing with Frayne.
Although Hogan has never travelled
more than four rounds in his life, still
there is no reason why he can not give
= good account of himself the first time
he starts over the long distance. Eddie
HanIon, Jimmy Britt, Al Kaufman,
frankie Neil and others who figured
prominently in the halls of Queensberry
fame jumped right out of the four
round division into 20 round society,"
and made good without turning hair.
A knockout victory by Hogan will
DO more to startle the fans all over
the country than anything else that
might happen in a local ring. Hogan,
though only a youngster and an un-
seasoned performer, has been boosted
and doomed throughout the length and
breadth Of the land and II he beats

Frayne. on the other hand, is fight
ing to come back. He was on the
highway TO distinction a year and a
half ago when Lew Powell knocked
him out. Since then his struggle has
been a hard one, but he forged ahead
several notches during the last three
months by holding Owen Moran and
Tommy Murphy to 10 round draws in
Kew Orleans
Frayne is showing plenty of form
IN his preliminary workouts over at
Al Whites Oakland quarters. His
work has so favOrably impressed White
and other well known Oakland sports
that they intend TO get together and
wager a tidy sum on Johnny. The
chances are that Frayne will rule a
hot favorite in all the transbay cities.

Reno Basket Ball Girls

BERKELEY, Dec. s.-The girls bas-

ifornia has just received a communi-
cation from the University of Nevada
looking to the arrangement of a game
to be played in Reno during the second
week in February.
There will probably be some difficulty
in making final arrangements for the
game. as the Nevada women insist that
only seven players shall be used dur
ing the contest. whereas the California
team has been in the habit of using
nine players during the game.
