RAILROAD WORK
early This Spring

sCHAFER, N. d., March b.
With a promptness which indicates
that the many rumors regarding rail
way construction at an early date in
Mckenzie county are not without
foundation, the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific engineers and sur
veyors in this section of the county
:, are running the lines for their re-
spective companies.
One of the Great Northern crews
is now camped at the Randall &
Mundy ranch on the Little Missouri
river and are running preliminary
survey down that stream to the
mouth of Cherry creek. Unless they
receive orders to the contrary after
completing the preliminary survey to
the mouth of Cherry creek, this crew
will turn back and locate the line up
the Little Missouri river, down Ben
ME Pierre creek and across the Vel
,lowstone to near Newton, Mont,
which will complete the survey work
on the line from New Rockford, N.
D. to Lewistown, Mont.
From Newton, Mont, the New Rock
ford to Lewiston line has already
been located and the right-of-way on
the government land has been filed
on by the railroad company. It is
900 miles from the Yellowstone river
to Lewistown, Mont. over this line,
according to J. NJ Phillips who locat-
ed it, and lis miles from the Yellow
stone to the Missouri river through
Mckenzie county.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-Presi.
dent Taft in special message to
congress, transmitted the first in.
stallment of the information collected
by the department of state in regard
to cooperation and the cost of living
in various European countries. The
department, by direction of the pres1-
dent, instructed the consular officers
to make the investigation. The re-
suits Of the inquiry are summed up
in a letter from Acting Secretary OF
State Huntington Wilson, which Is
submitted with the consular reports
and with a summary Of their con-
tents. s.+ - - :.
The president in his message says
that the popular demand for intor-
nation of this character apparently
was based on the belief that some
remedy might be found for the high
cost Of living. The immediate result
of the inquiries instituted by the de-
partment of state through the con.
sular officers was to accentuate the
fact that the increase in the price OF
common necessities Of life lis world.

question with the cooperative asso-

says that the information collected

sumers to solve for themselves the

account of the associations and their
influence on the wellIbeing of their

The president also calls attention
to his message of February 2. in
which he recommended an interna-
tional commission to look into the
cause for the high prices Of the neces:

one, pitch out or what not But
they leave it to the pitcher to put It
high or low as he pleases.
Another thing fans overlook Is
that the average club even in this
league passes battery signals back
to the outheld This is usually
done by the second baseman. The
reason for this is that the pitcher
can, in a measure, make the batter
hit where he wants him to-" That
is, a fast one on the outside is like
" to be nit to a certain field. slow
one to another and so on through
the list. This is useful to the out
feeders only when they know what
is to be pitched. The second base
man, by passing back word what
ball is to be thrown to the batter,
notifies the outfelder thereby to
which field the ball is most likely to
go and enables the fielder to LAY
for the batter"
All OF which being true, which
most of it is, don't be surprised or
grieved that players are stealing
signals. 1t isn't very heinous
crime. It isn't even a very hard
trick.

ITHACA, n. Y, May s.--John
Paul Jones. Cornelrs phenom-
email distance runner, does not
intend to go to the Olympic games
this summer even If he is selected
bv the American Olympic selec
ton committee. He has been re-
garded as certain of making the
team, and was considered by every
BODY to be Americas standby in
the distance events in Sweden. But
Jones states that the trip would
seriously interfere with his bust
ness this summer.
'I would like very much to go
with the team # the committee
should choose me" Jones declared
today. when questioned on the mat
ter. But 1t would mean losing the
whole summers work, and I do not
wish to do that I expect to make
5000 or 5000 this vacation, and that
will be a big help for my next year
in college"
AS Jones is working his way
through Cornell It is natural that
the prospect of such financial as
sistance would appeal to him even
more than the chance to win glory
as a worlds champion. In this case
Jones discards fame for fortune.
Jones likewise intends to aban-
don competition and the possibility
Of future laurels after graduation,
which will be in June, 1918.
II mean to quit the game for
good after leaving Cornell" he said
when asked about this, 80 I shall
not enter any athletic club I ex-
pect to go into the engineering pro-
fession, either as a mechanical or
an electrical engineer"
If Jones persists in his plans. he
will thus voluntarily give up the
crowning triumph Of a worlds
championship at the Olympic
games, the most coveted achieve

only by the pitcher, which would be
difficult; or to change his code
often enough to cross the opposi
ton, which would likewise be diff
fcult.
For all of which reasons. and a
few more. signal stealing is no
deep dyed villany and no great
trick.
Otto Jordan, for one. has always
been pretty clever at guessing the
signals of an opposing team. Eu-
gene DeMontreville, in his South
ern league days, was another
shrewd one at it.
With all the clever lads there are
in baseball, It is a wonder that
there isn't more Of 1T done
A ND while we're on the subject it
might be worth while noting that
when you read that the catcher
signalled for a high one" you are
probably reading fiction. 1t Is very
rare that the catchers in this
league bother to signal for a high
one or a low one They notify the
pitcher what kind of throw they
want. whether curve. fast one, slow

ment in the field Of athletics, and
one easily within his grasp. And
in year the world will see the
close of the most remarkable ath-
lettc career Of recent times. a ca
reer that began only few years
ago as a school boy
When Jones was asked in regard
to this famous mile whether he
had ever felt that he had the race
in hand during its progress, he
smiled only at the end I didn't
let up till the very finish.
But this wasn't the hardest race
of my career, though Hanavan. of
Michigan. made 1t the fastest race
I've ever had. I've run some of my
hardest fought races up here In
Ithaca. in practice with my team
mates Abel Kiviat did not force
me to exert myself in our race last
summer, but he was not in very
good condition.
After winning that mile at Cam
bridge did not take any especial
rest in preparation for the half
mile later, and had only the usual
rubbing down, OF course I entered
the half mile with increa sed conf
dence. but did not care particu-
larly about winning or making a
new record I was satisfied with
getting the mile"
do you intend to better these
records in the intercollegiate cham
pionships this June?"
No; I shall simply go out to
win"
So far this season Jones' most no
table success was in winning again
the intercollegiate cross country I'll
tie. This was the first time any
athlete had ever duplicated premier
honors in this event Before the
race there had been much specula-
ton as to whether Jones could
break this precedent.
