A Swedish team gave exhibitions at
the physical culture congress in Paris,
and the spectators applauded with the
greatest enthusiasm.
Five match factories have been
purchased by new company, which

About dozen Of human skeletons
were found in an excavation in Oster-
port street, Malmo. Some OF them
had letters on their feet and the posi-
tions OF their heads indicated that
they had been beheaded. 1t is sup

war.
The Swedish gendarmerie was to
assume control the other day of the
police service in Teheran, Persia and
a great number of gendarmes on foot
and horseback we're ordered TO parade
in front of the parliament building.
But the government countermanded
its orders and the gendarmes had to
march away. The government is in
hopes of enforcing the Swedish police
reforms without serious disturbances.
Several years ago some laborers
were imported from England to NAL
mo as strike breakers. Beds were
prepared for them on board the vessel
Amalthea in the harbor. The vessel
was dynam!ted and several of the men
killed. The rest were so badly scared
that they returned to England. The
guilty parties were convicted and they
are still in prison. Now the central
committee of the labor unions of Swed-
en- has issued an appeal to organized
labor in foreign countries to boycott
all goods made in Sweden until the
dynamiters are pardoned.
King Oscar, on his recent visit to

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK. Jan. 2T.--The cotton
market looked very good, and n
rather good advance was recorded
throughout the early part of the ses-
sion today, but before the close there
was lack of support, and a rather de-
cided decline took place. There was
no particular reason ascribed for the
late weakness In contract values, but
it might Just as well be attributed to
the general lack of confidence in
speculative values, including cotton
and all other things Of real value,
as to other cause.
AS far as supply and demand can
command the situation until Septem-
Der first, next at least one side of the
market is pretty well decided as far
as supplies are concerned, but there
Is so much skeptiCism ruling in all di-
rections that perhaps the spinners and
buyers of cotton are beginning to par
ticipate in this temperament. The i'm
mediate supply and demand situation
seems to require such close OBJ
servance that there is really no specu-
latiye incentive. Speculation means
anticipation of the situation, which
can positively prevail in favor of one
side or the other of q present value
Notwithstanding the fact that for this
period of the year, cotton is relative
~ high, the relation between contract
prices in New York, and the markets
OF the world do not appear to restrict

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PRODUCE.

CHICAGO. Jan, 27,-The trade In
wheat was greatly surprised when the
visible supply figures were posted on
the board of trade today. as a de-
crease of 1905 600 bushels was
shown for the past week, where an
increase was looked for. 1t Is expect
ed by some OF the cash men in the
trade that this fact may possibly drive
foreign buyers into the trade for linn
tied supplies.
With increased offers of wheat by
the Argentine Republic, and with
Australia grain coming out more
freely. conditions point TO the fact
that holders of this grain in the
United States must either meet the
asking prices OF competing countries
or be obliged to carry their grain for
a time at least
While 100000 bushels of corn was
said to have been sold for export to-
day. there were claims in certain cir
cies that at least part of these bushels
was old business instead of new. This
opinion was backed up by exporters
at the seaboard asking for cancella-
tons OF old sales.
The action of the corn market will
be watched with considerable interest
for some time to come. The fact that
the big line of long May corn in the
Chicago market is held by coterie OF
multi millionaires in New York, who
made their money out OF cotton, and
who have mis1udged the corn market
for the time being. is likely to cause
something of furry sooner or later.
These people will not die very easy,
but will put up a sharp fight before
they are driven to cover.
Oats displayed the same iethargy as
Of late, and the strength evidenced
was with the late rally In corn.

Model of Schooner
America Is F ound

BOSTON, Jan. ga wooden
model confidently asserted to be that
of the famous yacht America has been
discovered with other relics stored
away in the old headquarters of the
Grand Army in Worchester, The dis
covery was made while veterans were
house cleaning yesterday.
Congressman Butler Ames. the own
err of the America today. asked the
post to sell him the model, which he
wishes to present to the New York
Yacht club, of which he is q member.
Grand Army men recall that the
miniature craft disappeared from
their rooms, where 1t was on exhibit
ton, thirty years ago, when the quar-
ters were removed to their present
location. According to them, the
model was taken from the cabin OF
the America by worcester man
when the yacht was scuttled in st.
Johns river, Fla. by the Confederates,
who had used her as privateer. He
presented 1t TO the post.
Yacht America was built by syn
dictate of New York yachtsmen from
designs by George Steers and went to
England in 1851. whore she won the
cup which has since borne her name.
The yacht returned to America and
was captured at Norfolk by the Con-
federates.
Following the war the vessel was
raised by the government and used as
a training ship, later being sold by
the government to General Benjamin
+. Butler. She was somewhat altered.
after coming into the Butler family.
and later was again fitted out a pleas
ure craft, taking part in several of the
early races for the international cup.
She has participated in many OF the
New York Yacht club cruises under
the private signal of Colonel Butler
Ames, a grandson of General Butler,
but has not been in commission since
1901. She la now in Fort Point chan
nell Boston, across the street from the
South station. She is In excellent
condition and will probably be under
sail again.
The model for the America is cut
from a block of pine, showing half
of the hull. It is in good condition
except for one corner which has been
gnawed by rats. According to his
torical sketches of the yacht, George
Steer, it's builder, cut the model from
solid block of wood: and one writer
described 1t as being a half model
cut in miniature.
Yacht America brought the first cup
offered by the Royal Squadron to the
United States. It's appearance at the
time of the famous race in 1851 Gre
ated much ridicule among English
shipbuilders. It was described as
lacking all the qualities that made up
the light, graceful racers of the day
But the America won the cup easily,
and methods of yacht building were
revolutionized.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Jan. at
While Charles w. Eliot. president
emeritus of Harvard, and David Starr
Jordan. of Stanford university, are
carrying the propaganda of universal
peace around the world, and the
preaching that doctrine under all
flags, Benjamin Ide Wheeler, of the
University OF California, ID declar-

War, hey say, Is he'll, hat this war
is more righteousness than hell said
President Wheeler, in an address on
The Parties to the Balkan War
Continuing, President Wheeler said ;
1T Is a struggle of libertyloving
people to free themselves from the in
cubus OF Turkish domination. which
the powers have been fastening upon
them.
In essence, this war is a struggle
between freedom of the will as rep
and the fatalism of Oriental nations,
especially heading up in Turkish Mo-
hammedanism.
1T is a struggle which goes back
into the roots of history. The Balkan
peninsula is the boundary line between
the East and the West. between Asia
and Europe, between forms OF life on
earth. 1t goes back to Homer's day
1900 3. G.
Somehow this war will work out
for the good of the world, since be-
hind the curtain is the thought and
purpose of God in whom we all exist;
his will is righteousness, and who will
reign king of the nations"

WESTERN WASHINGTON FAIR.

ga bigger and better fair'' is the
slogan adopted by the officers and
officials of the Western Washington
Fair to be held in Puyallup Septem-
Der % to %. After Is years Of sue
cessful fairs with each year showing
a heavier attendance and an increase
in exhibits, because of the wonderful
growth and development OF the
country, the fair assumed a large
scope and at the annual meeting of
the stockholders of the Valley Fair
Association held last January, the
name was changed to the Western
Washington Fair Association, signii-
cant of the territory from which the
fair now draws It's crowds and exhib-
its.
The fair this year will far surpass
anything that has ever gone before 1T
and the officials expect record at
tendance during the six days of at
least rs, 900. Although the day of the
opening is nearly a month off, the
superintendent of the many depart
ments, after consulting with exhib-
itors, say that the exhibits will be
finer and greater in volume than ever
before. Never before have so many
fine premiums or so many large cash
prizes been offered
The baby show, always one Of the
most interesting events OF the fair to
the women, will be held on an entirely

new basis this year. No longer will
the dimple on the baby's cheek bring
him or her, whichever it may chance
to be, the prize. The babies are to be
judged scientifically on a basis of
physical and mental excellence. Ac-
cording to Mrs. R. G. Morse, super
intendent of the baby department,
the public is awake to the fact that
as scientific methods improve live
stock and poultry, SO better methods
of care will produce stronger, health
Ter and better babies. The judging
will be made under the rules of the
Woman's Home Companion Better
Babies Bureau.
The horse races, always a great at
traction to every lover of clean sport.
will be the best that can be held with
the fastest horses in the West COM
peting. The Indian races have always
proved exciting and interesting to the
crowds and all the tribes in the North
west will be present this year with
their fastest horses. The race track
has been oiled, making it dustless.
One feature of the Puyallup track is
that the horses can be seen at every
jump from any point in the grounds.
One department., which was I'M
dreamed of when the first valley fair
was held in 1900, but which has now
grown to be one of the most important
and popular departments, is the auto
mobile show. All the new and swagger
machines for distribution in 1914 will
be on exhibition.
The raising Of pears Will be exploit
ed by the fruit departments. Pears
are admittedly one of the best crops
of the Puget Sound district and can
be raised west of the mountains as
we'll as in any other part Of the world.
This fact will be demonstrated this
year beyond a shadow of doubt.

disturbed until they are in the way
of the picker and grower before being
removed is not only dangerous, but
positively detrimental to good results.
The grower who makes practice OF
eliminating all non-essentials prompt
ly will certainly have more to show
for his labor at the end of the season.
