to the renewal of the old union of the
five republics which originally formed
the Grand Republic of South America
has been known to the state depart

tails of the extent of the agitation
have been lacking.
Indications are that the conferences
will be held in Caracas. the capital of
venesuela, just following the celebra-
tion of the centenary of the independ-
ence of that country next month.
The state department for years past
has wanted the smaller republics in
South and Central America united in
strong governments and would well

He WANTS TO Die
Tommy Johnson Tires of Making
Useless Fight.
Knows He Cannot Recover, Says
He Would Like to Co."

Kansas City, Oct. S1.-TOmmy John
son, the greatest athlete that the Mis-
souri, valley has ever known can not
live. His fight that he has been MAX
ing SO bravely is a losing one.
johnson realizes now that his fight
has been a losing one and that he has
won his last game. To friends who
visited him Johnson said: Il know that
1 have to go. They tell me that am
gaining, but tEat is just because am
eating. When [ quit eating / shall GO
I know the condition my body is in.
1 have made a big fight and 1 made
it as long as I thought there was a
chance, but now there is no use and
1 would like to CO.
That is the tragic news given out
by physicians attending johnson at the
University hospital in Rosedale. IN
operation can not help Tommy John
son any, and thus it is that the hum
drsds of friends and sincere admirers
Of the great athlete find the grief they
all.
Athletics Not Cause.
Through all the gloom that surrounds
Johnson's condition there is one bright
light. Athletics are not the cause cf
his breakdown nor will athletics be
the cause of his passing away.
Here is the truth of the matter, for
years before Johnson went into atm
Ietcis he was afflicted, so physicians
say, YEA tubercular bacilli. 1t was
only the great fight he made for health
in his athletic work and his vigorous
training that kept off the disease and
strengthened those parts that We're
weak. In spite of what the opponents
of football will say, athletics saved
Johnson's life for many years.
When the physicians made the final
examination they found that certain
organs affected by tuberculosis and
that the fight Johnson has been max
ing is of no avail.
