owner OF another houseboat arrived
on the scene and patrolled the river
In the neighborhood of the tragedy
till nearly daylight. The searchers
found the girls hats, gloves and coats
floating on the water but not trace
OF the bodies.
The strangest feature of the acct
dent Is that the canoe is a non-cap-
sizable voat. equipped with sponsons.
Expert canoeists say THESE Doats will
tilt to the waters edge but will not
turn over. Another unaccountable
feature is the fact that the two men
heard no cries or sound from their
girl companions after they hit the wa
ter but the rescuers declare that both
'he young men were greatly excited
ard for some time could not tell a

ADJUSTMENTS
Riders of the World.

The different methods of riding of
the different nationalities of the world
are illustrated by the congress of
rough riders with Buffalo Bills Wild
West and Pawnee Bits Far East,
showing every style of equitation from
the great men ages of Europe to the
Syrian desert; men who throw their
legs across every kind of mount from
a bronco to bride bullock.
The widely different mounts could
not be more fully demonstrated than
the two almost extreme seats of the
cowboy and the fox hunter, shown in
this seasons program.
The coyboy has to be astride his
pony. from a dozen hours upward ev-
cry day, he scopes steers and drags
out mfred cows and is compelled to
stick to his saddle under the most alb
normal conditions, and if need be
must have both his hands at liberty
The fox hunter has nothing to do but
"sit tight and has no other occupa-
tion for his hands. except by the play
of the bit, to get the very best per-
Torrance out of his horse delicate
enough operation and not to be quick
ly acquired; he uses saddle in which
he can sit safely over different OBJ
stacles but which is convenient to fall
out of, If horse comes down.
A huntsman rides the flattest
thing known except pad. every sad
de must be as closely adapted to the
needs of the rider as can be made.
The home of the short seat and long
stirrup is the occident. that of the
long seat and short stirrup the orient.
These are varied in every locality
to suit its own peculiarities, inherited
or acquired.
The eastern rider clings to his eX-
itremely short feathers. to place him
the higher above his horse in the
charge and therefore make him the
more imposing when he stands up in
his stirrups. to brandish scimitar or
match lock.
The easterner early learns to throw
his horse and use him for a rampant
from behind which he can fire and
to remount rapidly and attack with
a sabre. to use it in any position. at
any gait. They throw their horses at
ga,lop. they pick up wounded men.
and going at full speed they leap from
horse to horse.
In matters equine. however, it is
conceded that America is pre-emi-
nent We are many sided people
and our equestrianism partakes of our
many sidedness, the greatest variety
of riders which any one people has
produced, has thriven on the conti-
nent of North America
Going back to include the days still
in the memories of old men living
when the Indians. who dwelt further
est from civilization We're armed with
bow and arrow and tomahawk and
/ rode without saddle. We can count
within the boundaries of the union
almost every tyne of rider from those
who subdued the steed in the era OF
the frieze of the Parthenon to the
faithful family "Dobbin" of today.

horsemanship are displayed in this

PORTLAND GIRL
SWIMS THE RIVER

PORTLAND, July 23.-With hands
and feet bound, Miss Claire FAIRY. a
15-year-old Portland girl last night
swan the Willamette river. a distance
of about 600 yards. She did the feat
in a little more than IA minutes and
outdistances experts in her effort
which was the second in five days.
The first attempt last week failed
when she was almost across, the river
being rough at that time.
Miss FAIRY was taught to swim just
rs months ago. With her two hands
and arms tied together she uses them
as the snout of a fish, and her
hobbled legs act as a fish's TAIL as
she darts through the water

Five New Umpires
in Major Leagues

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 22.-Five
umpires who viii be new to major
league fans will make their debut In
either the National league or the
American league this year. President
Lynch. of the National, has added w.
]. Guthrie and William ]. Bryon to
his staff Both of these men worked
with the International league last
year.
President johnson, of the American
league. win give trials to Charles Fer
guson. George Hildebrand and Nc
Greevy. Ferguson Is from the Ameri-
can association, and McGreevy and
Hildebrand 'arbitrated" IN the Pa
cific league last season.
The search for first-ciass talent in
the umpire line Ia as keen every year
among the presidents OF the various
leagues as 1t is among the various
managers to secure playing talent.
Empires nowadays sign regular
contracts with minor leagues. When
they look good enough to be promoted
into n major league the official nf
the latter organization purchases his
release from the minor league.
Thus IL Is worth something to q
minor league to develop an umpire
who graduates to the staff Of Ban
Johnson or Tom Lynch. Until a year
ago all the satisfaction that a miner
league president got ont of losing a
good arbitrator was a little pride
that his organization had sent a man
higher UP.
Although there are only sixteen or
seventeen places to fill on the stats
OF umpires in the majors, first-class
men for these positions are so few
that the competition to land them is
very strong. Johnson and Lynch are
always on the watch to get on the
track OF competent man. and last
year vote of thanks was extended
to a couple of club presidents ny the
National league for aid in helping
Mr., Lynch to secure a certain umpire.

there are still good-sized repreaen-

There were FIVE Joneses in the
American league In 1907. Today
there is only one. and whether he
sticks In the top circuit or for the
whole of the 1913 season ls a Enooted
ouegtion. In 1907 the St Louis
Browns had Tom Jones on first base.
Ne finished his career as s. Detroiter.
In the same city we're Davy Jones and
Bun1pus Jones, a pitcher.
The White Sox had Fielder Jones,
greatest Of all the famous family OF
that name, while the Washington
team had Charley Jones. first Ameri-
can league player TO reach home from
second base on sacrifice fly. Incl
dentaiiy, the trick was turned against
Cleveland on the home lot
This year Ban Johnson's circuit con-
tains seven men by the name Of
johnson or Johnston. OF this num-
her Chicago has four. One IN named
Walter, and he also is a pitcher. Wal
ter already mas gone to the South

iy signifies that he's Eoing after the
peerless Washington twirler's honors.

Maps heard of him two years ago, but

want him.
Other Johneons belonging to the
tribe Of Comiskey are George and FL

while Ellis plays shortstop.

well hereafter TO call Corniskey's team

the White Sox.
St Louis boasts of q player with q
similar name in J, T. Johnston. out
fielder. John T. mot John Arthurl
comes from the South, hence his
scrupies on the subject.
Coming to Cleveland. we have our
own peppery Doc Johnston, and
continuing on to Washington we
come upon the most iilustrious of all
the players of that name, unless 1t be
Ban B. himself, In pitcher Walter
johnson.
Altogether this makes seven mem
hars of the family playing in the
American league, and If we add the
name of the president of the organi-
xation 1t will swell the total to eight
The aggregation includes three pitch
ers, two outffelders. first baseman
and a shortstop. Two more such and
we could have a regular johnson

season we will hear of one or two
more Johnsons making their homes
