cap Taa.

m4
This game Is doubtless an evolution
OF the old trick which boys have OF
taking a cap from the head OF some
youngster and throwing it from n
to another, thus preventing the owner
from recovering #. The game OF cap
tag is practically the same scheme,
with a couple OF rules to govern it.
One boy is chosen to be 1T" and a
cap held in the hand of another boy
designates the one whom he is ex-
pected to chase and tag. IL the boy
who has the cap In hand is in danger
Of being tagged he may pass 1t to some
other boy, who then becomes the one
to be chased. When a boy is tagged
with the cap IN hand he becomes ut
or il he drops 1t on the ground he is
'it'' all the same.

GARROS AGAIN GETS LOST IN THE CLOUDS

Houston, Tex, January 29.-Forced to land on account of darkness in field nine miles from the aviation. grounds. Roland Garros the aviator who. to escape the ravages of souvenir hunters, flew into the teeth of gale this afternoon. stood guard over his machine for several hours before an automobile, one of twenty sent out to search for him, picked him up. He will fly his machine back to the aviation field tomorrow
 Rene Simon, who was also forced to take. to the air. landed hardly a mile from the grounds and his machine was rolled back to the hangar after tn 0 crowd had dispersed.
 Garros and simon had just returned after brief flights in the face of 35-mile an hour wind when the over enthusiastic spectators broke through the barriers Before the machines could be returned to the hangar they had surrounded the aviators and their crafts and were pull ing on the machines. threatening to tear them apart, when hurried orders were given to reascend. The buzzing of the motor and the revolving of the propeller blades drove the crowd back far enough to permit of start.
 Simon flew low and came to earth quickly when he was out of range of the field. From the grounds. however, the last seen of Garros he was a speck in the sky about 20O0 feet up, headed east Automobiles were sent in search of the man and it was not until 10 o'clock to- night that report was made that he was found.
 The local meeting will end tomorrow.

MONTHLY PENSION
 GIVEN BY PORTUGAL TO KING MANUEL

Lisbon, January 29.-The Diario De Noticias, announces that the Portu- guese government has decided to pay a monthly pension of s33Oo to the de- posed King Manuel. The check for the months of october, November and De- cember already has been sent to him.
 Manuel IT, the exiled King of Portu- gal is now living with the Queen Mother Amelie at Wood Norton, Ever sham, England. where he was obliged to accept the hospitality of the Duke of Orleans. He reached there last Oc- tober from Gibraltar where he sought British protection after being driven out of Portugal.
 Since his arrival in England there have been many reports of the poverty stricken condition of the former SOW ereign whose debts in Portugal alone are estimated at more than $300000. The importunities of creditors have been strong and it was understood at one time that the new government of Portugal had determined to liquidate those of the obligations legally in cured.
 Concerning the property in. Portugal owned personally by Manuel and oth- CTS of the royal family decree issued a few months ago promised that q set clement would be made as soon as peg sible and that the legal representa- lives for the exiled royal family would be respected.
 Recent dispatches from Lisbon said that the British government inter- vened successfully. with the Portu- guese government on behalf of the de- pleted purse of the deposed King. Rep resentatiyes from the foreign office at London set forth that the exiled mon arch was possessed of means insuffi- cient for, his personal needs.

STRIKE MAKES PLAGUE
 SITUATION WORSE

Harbin, Manchuria, January 29.- Added to the horrors of the plague 5000 Russian workmen on the Eastern Chinese railway, fearing the dlsease' have gone on strike because the ad- ministration refused to dismiss looo Chinese laborers and provide passes 10 enable the families of the Russians to return to their own country The strikers have been paid off and will. with their families, be evicted from their dwellings
 Troops have been called out and have been stationed all along the line, to protect the Chinese.
 Eight thousand Russian women With out homes ana with samll resources are likely to prove a source Of grave danger, and it is probable that addi- tional troops will have to be provided before long. ,
 There has been no let up in the spread of the plague. During the last 4S hours 40 deaths were reported in Harbin alone and probably there were many others that were not reported. In the same period 150 Chinese died in F'udziadian, a suburb city.

Washington, January 29.-Of the great est interest to the American producer of raw material, the manufacturer and the exporter, will be the Turin exposition, which opens April 2S, next, in the pres ence of the King and royal family of Italy, diplomats and foreigners of distinc- tion and the Italian parliament. With cut doubt the exposition will also attract a great number of tourists from Amer ica for the reason that it will be the greatest ever held in Italy.
 The department of state is in receipt of reports from it's consular officers in Europe, strongly urging that the atten- tion of the American manufacturers and producers be directed to what promises 10 be an exceptionals opportunity for the development of American trade.
 The United States government commits sion, of which Francis B. Loomis is com missioner general, Is conducting an en- ergetic campaign to insure large Amer ican representation at the exposition. F or the benefit of the would-be exhibitors, who cannot send representatives to Turin, the commission has arranged to give special attention to their exhibits and
