Chicago. Nov. Sack Johnson,
champion heavyweight pugilist Of
the world, tonight occupied a cell
in the County Jail due to his failure
to furnish a $35, goo bond for his re-
| lease on a charge OF violation of the
Mann act. t.
|. No longer is Johnson's golden
smile" visible. His hard losing fight
waged throughout an afternoon and
evening. session of Judge Landis'
court detected him greatly,
As he left the federal building
handcuffed to Deputy Marshal
Northrupp after futile play to not
have his wrist manacled, his should
ers were stopped and his head hung
down He said nothing. In the
course of his extended battle for
bond Johnson shed tears, pleaded,
Offered cash bond in almost any
amount, and he employed two attor-
neys In an effort to obtain his re-
lease. Three. prospective bondsmen
failed to qualify and one of them.
Albert G, Jones, was sent TO iail

Of $4,000 for his appearance in
court next Monday to answer a
charge of contempt which was lodged
against him by the court when he
attempted to schedule property be-

Both District Attorney Wilkerson

IAN unparalleled attempt to

said Judge Landis. 81 will not con-
slider cash bond"
Wilkerson said he understood
that Johnson intended to leave this
country Nov 80 if he obtained his
release After Johnson learned that
only surety by property owners
would be accepted he made a plain
tiff's plea for an extension of time.
First he asked at the close of the
days sessions that he be permitted
to present two bondsmen at the
night session of the court. Having
failed to obtain his release at the
might session his attorneys sought to
have the time extended until tomor-
row noon. johnson said he would
be able to obtain bond which his at
torneys might secure but the court
was not inclined to extend its
leniency any further.
Coincident with the Incarceration
OF Johnson, Mrs. Catherine Dorsey,
with whom Lucille Cameron is said
to have lived three weeks while in
Chicago, was arrested and placed in
Jail. To add further to the pugi-
lists troubles it is reported, today,
that the federal investigation Of
Johnson's alleged immoral practices
has only begun. Several other
charges against him are to be in
vestigated, it is said, District Attor-
ney Wilkerson tonight said he would
force Johnson on trial next week, If
possible.

Attaining Correct Carriage.

To attain correct carriage one must
walk erect and to achieve this end
there is nothing better than trying to
walk with book or similar article.
such as box of writing paper or sew
eral music books. This is sure to keep
one from developing the swaying of
the body more to the one side than
the other. Stays that force the oppo-
site of this rule should be discarded
and destroyed, for they are not fit for
the individual to wear, for if they
work against erectness of carriage
they are really menace to the health.
Throw out your chest; better to have
commenters say that you are so
straight that you appear to be falling
over backwards than to be round
shouldered and moreover phthisical in
appearance in looks. if not in fact.

cola STORAGE Lady BUGS.

Lady bugs of Nevada origin are i'm
ported into California to destroy many
Of the insect pests of vines and orch
ards. They are found in moss under
the snow; but at that season they can
not be pressed into service, because
the worms on which they feed have
not yet appeared, while the lady bugs
are still alternating.
Accordingly the little Nevadans are
placed in refrigerating wagons and
thus conveyed to California, to re-
main in cold storage until their serv-
ices on vines and trees are required
During all this time they take no food.
With spring come the destroying
worms, and then the lady bug is
taken from her prison and dispersed
where she appears most likely to do
her work we'll AS she is ravenously
hungry, the work is begun and con-
tinued until the worms are destroyed,

they have made all necessary allow
ances for further possible slides. Yet
| they are preparing to meet any new
ones which may develop Should there
be any additional slides after June /,
1918, the canal authorities will meet
them by moving the great dredges of
the Pacific division into the cut and
dredging out the incoming material

tiIgency that is practically certain

Taking journey through the canal
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, one
may see everywhere evidences of the
rapidity with which the canal is be-
ing completed. The seven-mile sea
level section between deep water and
the Gatun locks is already opened to
navigation. 1t can now be used by
craft of moderate draft. and will be
completed to its full width of 500 feet
and its full depth of Al feet before
Thanksgiving day next year. At Ga
tun one finds additional evidence of
remarkable progress. The locks at
that place are now within year of
completion except for the installation
Of the gates and other lock machinery

will be ready to hold So out of the
final rs feet of water in Gatun lake.
That part of the dam between the
locks and the spillway is already prac-
tically completed, and the other sec
ton is being pushed to completion
rapidly The whole structure will be
completed nearly two years before the
official opening day of the canal.
After passing through Gatun locks,
one finds the finishing touches being
applied to the next 26 miles of chan
mel. The completion of the relocation
of the Panama railroad along the high
ground to the east of the canal has
taken the road out of the Chagres val
ley This permits that entire portion
of the old Panama railroad to be done
away with, and by May / the 26 miles
of the canal between Gatun and Las
Cascades will be entirely completed.

he could arrange to play two games
on a Saturday he was delighted.
How Herzog worked his way up
the ladder TO its dizziest heights in
few short years will stand out as
an example to young and ambitious
players. He made a rapid climb to-
ward his ambition while playing with
the team of the Maryland athletic
club. the Baltimore and Ohio, Uni
versity of Maryland and Sparrow's
Point teams.
He got his first professional en-
gagement with the Ridgely club
team at s75 per month. There ne
spent two seasons. In 1907 he played
with York and Reading. Before the
end of that season he was spotted by
a Giant scout and drafted and joined

Herzog are still green IN the memoir

and critics alike who saw those games

Who is Buck Herzog? fans are
asking; for his personal history is
not well known, even among his
friends.
Well, he was born q years ago in
Baltimore. and according to the most
trustworthy reports he began play
ing ball as soon as he was able
70 handle d ball and bat. From the
first he was ambitious TO become a
professional bal player-even a big

a great help to the Giants in win

"Ridgely made me in more ways
than one" says Herzog. He not only
started his professional career there
but met the young woman who is
now Mrs. HerZog. The couple have
two children. He has a beautiful
home surrounded by many acres of
good land. He raises crops, thorough

IN the TransvaaI they were just as er-
fectually married under the Dutch law
as If both had been present In the

The bridegroom sent TO his friend, or
best man. in Amsterdam a power OF
attorney to represent him as his proxy
at the ceremony and at the same time
forwarded his glove, which at the
proper moment. when the two were
made one. was held by both the bride
and the proxy.
The wedding was duly registered at
Amsterdam and at Pretoria, where the
bridegroom filed an affidavit with the
landdrost, or magistrate.
This curious form of marriage is a
purely Dutch institution, the custom
having originated. 1t is said. in the old
times OF Dutch-Batavian rule. 1t is,
however, a dead letter in the Trans

FOES TO SUCCESS.
pon't Be Victim of Timidity, Shyness
or Self Consciousness.

Don't Be Victim of Timidity, Shyness
or Self consciousness.
Timidity, shyness and self conscious
ness belong TO the same family. We
usually find all where we find any one,
and they are all enemies of peace of
mind. happiness and achievement No
one has ever done a great thing while
his mind was conferred upon himself
We must lose ourselves before we can
find ourselves. Self analysis is valu-
able only to learn our strength; 1t is
fatal If it makes US dwell upon our
weaknesses.
Timid. shy people are morbidly self
conscious. They think too much about
themselves. Their thoughts are turn
ed inward; they are always analyzing.
dissecting themselves. wondering how
they appear and what people think Of
them. If these people could only for
get themselves and think Of others
they would be surprised 10 see what
freedom. ease and grace they would
gain, what success in life they would
achieve.
Thousands OF young people are held
back from undertaking what they long
to do and are kept from trying to make
real their great life dreams because
they are afraid TO jostle with the
world. They shrink from exposing
their sore spots and sensitive points
which smart from the rghtest touch.
