Negotiations are in progress with
the Lincoln Commercial club for a
Booster day contest between the
base ball fans of Lincoln and Topeka.
w. S. Written, secretary of the Lin
coin Commercial club has written to
J. Will Kelley, secretary of the To
peka Commercial club, stating that he
is in favor of such a contest and has
referred the question to the baseball
committee He, however, made a
casual remark to the effect that To-
peka is not as good a baseball town
as it should be. According to mem
bers of the Topeka Boosters and
Rooters association the Lincoln secre-
tary will have a different opinion at
the close of the contest if it is ar
ranged.

There seems to he mistaken idea rela-

tuberculosis camp. It will be near the
city detention hospital half mile from
Stephenson's addition and three-quarters
of mile from Highland Park. Some
persons have had the idea that the locd-

Do you like romance? Then you
can't fail to be interested in the fam
lily history of two blue blooded young
persons whose engagement was an
nounced a few days ago, and who will
be welded in splendor in Paris next
month. The story of how their ances-
tors rose in the world and came to be
very important reads like a fairy
story. Oh, yes! We had almost for
gotten TO mention that the young
folks here referred TO are Miss Helen
Mcdonald Stallo Of Cincinnati, and
Prince Michel Anne Charles Joachim
Napoleon Bonaparte Murat, OF Paris.
Michel is a real prince and has
scads of money and lives in palace
and is a social hero. But his fore
father who lived back in the great Ma
pO.eon's time wasn't half so well of
at least in the beginning
According 10 all the histories, the
first Prince Murat took an active part
in the first revolution that overthrow
monarchy in France. He was one OF
the people, being the son of a down
trodden innkeeper, His first job was
that Of stable boy. He ran away from
home and joined the army. Discharg-
ed as a soldier, he became a Diapers
assistant and made speeches in his
native village against social caste
and for the equality of all men.
Later, he enlisted again and became
captain. He gained the attention of

cavalryman France ever possessed.
He rose from one rank to another. At
% he married Catherine, Napoleon's
sister, and the great emperor made
him king of Naples.
The histories also tell us that Mu-
rat lost his head after Napoleon's
downfall 1t went into the same bas-
ket that carried the heads of some of
Napoleons other friends. But he left
TO the world heroic name and long
line of princes and princesses.
Now as to the ancestry of Miss Stall
10, proud heiress of Cincinnati.
Her grandfather was the late Alex
ander Mcdonald, one of the dukes of
Standard Oil He started life as a
teamster in Cincinnati. While he
dreamed of a 50 raise the Empress
Eugene, aunt of the present Prince
Michel, was the reigning queen of
France. It is hardly likely that he
ever saw visions of . granddaughter
Of his marrying into that blue blooded
family.
But fortune smiled on Mcdonald
and when he died not long ago he left
q couple Of millions or so. one half
of which goes to Miss Stallo.
1t is said the present mach be-
tween Prince Michel and Miss Stallo
is a pure love affair. They met three
months ago at q dinner given by Miss
Stuyvesant in PATS. The prince fell
mad.y in love and soon asked, and
was promised, the hand Of Miss Stall

LOOK TO RUSSIAN OIL FIELDS
Arc Certain to Play an Important Part
In Furnishing Power for
Battleshlps. .rf

In discussing the fact that the use
of oil instead of coal as fuel In the
English navy is under consideration
1t is time Russia should pay serious
attention to this question. If England
is replacing its own cheap coal by the
more expensive foreign product, there
must be important advantages on the
side of naphtha, and in the future
Russian fleet the part to be played by
this fuel will be most important one,
the Novoe Vremya says Many mills
and factories have gone over to
naphtha az fuel and the consumption
Is increasing every year.
Russia owns immense oil fields and
It could be the chief supplier of the
world. The need OF organization in
the business is recognized by the
government and number OF special
meetings have been held for discuss
ing the subject. New conditions have
been laid down for the exploitation OF
government territories, and the regu-
lations for Investigations have been
changed Some territories known as
being rich In oil have been closed to
private enterprise, such as the APP
sheron peninsula, near Baku. and vari-
Gus islands of the Caspian sea. as well
as some territories in the Transcas-
plan Ural and Gerghana districts, and
others in the north OF Russia and 81
IBERIA. amounting to millions Of acres.
The reason for this action Is the wish
to preserve these districts from ex-
haustion.
Another question concerns tho mat
ter of investigation. It is quito neces-
sary that the right OF Investigation DO
granted on large scale, and not only
for comparatively small lots Of ground.
where the investigation might not pay.
The government is aware Of this fact,
and, according to the new regulations
the plots OF ground allotted for inycB-
tlgation are to be increased tcnfold.
Tho most advisable system is TO
grant concessions that would induce
capitalists to place their money In
such undertakings. Under tho new
regulations regarding tho investigation
OF naphtha districts, the government
proposes to publish geological de.
scriptions Of tho various districts.

serious proposition last year. Bill
Dahlen's men started off this season at
a fast gait and they have kept up their
speedy work to the present time Some
of the baseball wiseacres think that
the Dodgers have been playing beyond
their real speed, but Dahlen AYERS that
his men will be putting up just as fast
game two months from now as they
are at the present writing and the
club that beats them out will be able
to land the pennant
This years team is the best that
has represented Brooklyn in several
seasons without a doubt. The addi-
ton of Stengel was the move that
made tho Dodgers a winning aggrega-
tom. This player has put up a SEN
sational game since joining the team,
and has infused new life into the
others. Jake Daubert and Zach Wheat,
the two heavy hitters of the Su-
perbas, are swinging their war clubs
with a vengeance this year, Cutshaw
Smith, Fisher, Hummel and Miller are
others who are giving a good account
Of themselves. The pitching staff, led
by that great left-handed box artist,
Nap Rucker, has contributed its share
to keeping the team up in the thick OF
the fight.
