seats left in the orchestra, and all the
boxes were taken. She turned and looked
up at the balconles-they, too, were

CHINESE To
enter MEET

New York, Aug. 16.--A great sign Of
the universal spread OF athletics is
the fact that the Chinese are going to
have a team at the Olympic games at
Stockholm next year. Very little infor-
nation can be gathered about the size
OF the team or the individual ability
of the members, only the official an
nouncement from Hongkong that a
team would be sent and that China
wanted to have a member on the in
ternational olympic committee in flu
ture.
This would mean that the Chinese
are in the game to stay and will have
representations at all the Olympics to
come as well as voice in the execu-
tive department. 1t may sound odd to
most people that the Chinese, the last
people in the world to adopt modern
habits, should be hit with the athletic
fad, but it seems that matters have
been shaping themselves that way for
some time. From year to year Chinese
students who have had their education
In America and England have taken
home with them the athletic idea and
have been telling their cOuntrymen Of
the wonderful benefits Of the sport.
Gradually the habit grew on the ma
tives and, helped out by the UNIVERSE

CLAIMS CHAMPION
Will BE LOSER

Chicago, Aug. 16.-Odds on the Nc
Farland Wolgast so are being talked
OF, even at this early date. At the
boxing headquarters the pugilists and
fans, discussing the 60, can see moth
ing but Mcfarland. Most of them as
sert ne should be top favorite in the
betting. They contend that Paclxy
win overshadow the champion in ten
rounds and earn a decisive verdict,
even IL one will not be given. Several
small wagers have been made that
the fight will 60 the limit and that
both men viii be on their feet.
One man at O'Donnell's made a
small bet of 2 to ! that Packy would
outpoint AID and would win newspa-
per decision. Johnny Mcfarland,
cousin Of Packy. can see nothing but
the Chicago boy in the fight and de-
clares that Wolgast will be knocked
out. The general view of the con-
servative boxers who have seen both
the principals i'm action at one time or
another is that the affair will be an
even go, and that it will lead TO a
longer mill to be staged on the Paci-
fic coast. 1t does not seem possible
that Mcfarland will knock out the
champion in ten rounds. and 1t is not
likely that AID will make Packy take
the count.

ties and those who had seen competi-
tons abroad, the track and field events
began to get popular. AT Canton and
several other of the large cities little
clubs have sprung UP and here and
there meets are Of frequent occurrence.
To judge by some photographs Of
these meetings they were rather crude.
but on the whole as good as the early
attempts of other nations when they
first took on athletics. Then 1t is un-
known what China may develop with
its wonderful population. 1t is just as
likely TO develop champions as Finland
or even Germany. A few years ago
anybody who would say that in the
near future FinIander would cross to
England and run away with the four
mile championship would be regarded
as verging on lunacy, yet Finlander
did this year and 1t is doubtful Ii he
has an equal at the distance in the
world today. In the Olympic games
at Athens in 1906 Germany did not win
solitary point, but there are men in
the kaiserland now who are the peers
of the best in the world. No country
can boast of better all around jump
err than Pasemann, and Rau has done
10 3-5 seconds for the 100 meters and
has beaten Ramsdell, the American
holder of the English 100-yards cham
pionship.
1t is yet unknown what emblem the
Chinese will wear in competition, but
more than likely 1t will be yellow with
the dragon displayed on the chest.

TWO AVIATORS
KILLED TUESDAY

Chicago. Aug. 16.-Two aviators,
William r. Badger of Pittsburg, and
St Croix Johnstone OF Chicago. both
young men, lost their lives at the in
ternational aviation meet here yester-
day. In dying, both revealed the frail-
ity OF the craft in which two score
more aviators were curving and glid-
ing about the air, with scarcely q
pause for the deaths of their contem-
poraries.
Death In both cases was due to UNI
explained accidents. probably the re-
suits OF unsupported defects in the
mechanism of the machines, and was
in no way caused by carelessness nor
lack OF responsibility Of the drivers.
Badger. a wealthy youth, careened to
his death In q pit In the aviation
field There had been flaw in one Of
the wings Of the propeller Of the Bald
win machine he drove. Centrifugal
force broke the propeller, upset the
delicate equilibrium Of the machine,
and Badger dashed 100 feet to the bot
tom of the pit. his neck being broken.
Johnstone fell 500 feet under his en-
CINE and was drowned as the result of
an equally unsupported defect. Caught
under the heavy engine In the Mois-
SAINT monoplane. he was carried deep
into Lake Michigan and his body was
not brought to the surface until an
hour later.
Badger lived for three quarters OF
an hour after he had been extricated
from the remains OF his engine. He
did not recover consciousness and died
almost at once after he had reached a
hospital.
Johnstone's actual fall was witnessed
by his young wife, although it was
not until half an hour later that she
was informed OF his death.
AS the monoplane faltered In midair,
then crashed downward to the sur
face Of the lake. the young aviator's
wife, who had been following his flight
closely, grasped mechanics arm and
exclaimed in fear: "Oh. oh, pity; he's
falling. MY. boy will be killed"
Beachy was the only one to finish
the twelve-mile passenger carrying
final. His time was 10 minutes, 1857
seconds.
"A. p. McCurdy won the twelve mile
biplane speed contest In ia minutes. Al
seconds. Lincoln Beachy made faster
time, but was penaHzed one lap for
fouling a pyIon. Time for ten laps
is minutes, 1880 seconds ParnaIee
dropped out after the frst lap.

ATWOOD RAISED KICK


Chicago. Aug. 16. There was much
vehemence Of language and gesticula-
ton at the aviation grounds yester-
day just before Harry NJ. Atwood
started on the second stage Of his
ST. Louis New York flight The dis
pate was between Atwood and Chair
man Mudd, Of the aviation committee
and 1t terminated only with the thrust
inK of a certified check for $500 snfo
the aviatora hands just ais his big
blpIane was starting. The trouble
started when somebody with 4 badge,
but unidentified told Atwood that Id
must leave the ground by $3.50 or he
would not be allowed to start BIT all
Atwood responded with heat that ne
would start when he pleased, or some
one would get hurt.

ton Of wooden covering which will
extend out over the padded ring. This

grand stand at a sufficient height not
to interfere with the view Of any of
the occupants. Of the grand stand or

According to Curley, 1t win cost
$4,000 to open the gates and the pro-
motors wish to minimize their chances

rolls by public interests in what in adj
vance, at least, is generally conceded
to be the greatest combat in wrestling

The scale Of prices has been deter
mined and the promoters have begun
the sale Of seats a month before the
date set for the event. The prices will
range from ST to $40. The majority
of the seats will be sold at So, SIS and

stand and pavilion, with $40 the figure
for a number OF the best box seats.
The 81 charge will be for general adj
mission in the far bleachers.

chosen. Gotch is not expected in
