moment in 1908, when Emile Stricker, Strang's mentor and bosom friend, met his death on the fair grounds track in Birmingham. After Strang and myself had seen that Stricker had every atten- ton, we sat in our room at the Flor ence and sent wires informing his rela- tives and friends of his sad end As the morning sun began to stream in the window l asked Strang how he felt.
 You will never know how feel until I am killed and you begin to wire my folks what to do with the remains
 "Strang was a fatalist, and only last sunday gave me the new address of his sister in New York, that I might locate her in case he was hurt. The brainiest. squarest and gamest professional athlete that ever tempted fate has gone. I know that lot of people in Birmingham will mourn with me for Lewis Strang."

Physicians of Ensley and wylam re- port taat the epidemic of infantile paraly- sis is s~rapidly being checked in that dis trict and it now seems that the march of the disease will soon be stopped alto gether. Only one new case was reported yesterday and it was at Wylam.
 The physicians are using every possi- ble precaution to wipe out the epidemic. Sanitary rules are being strictly ob- served, the association of children on the street or the playgrounds has been warned against and houses where cases have been reported are being quarantined.
 Families with children are leaving town daily to avoid infection. It has been estimated that more than 200 mothers with children have left the Ensley district within the last two days. Quite large percentage of this number had originally intended leaving town for a two weeks vacation and practically all of them ex- pect to return within that length of time.

 Another attempt probably will be made tomorrow to pass the measure as motion 10 reconsider today's vote was adopted without comment. Racing men hope to be able to persuade 23 of the 33 men absent or not voting today, to declare in favor of the bill, which passed the s1R Rte yes terday.
 Because of the overwhelming vote against the bill today, however, doubt of their ability to gain the necessary sup port is freely expressed.
