sulate during the night for protec-
ton, and was taken on board the
United States gunboat Wheeling. His
admission on board the Wheeling is
at the direct instructions Of the Uni
ted States government, cabled few
days ago by Secretary Bryan to Con-
sui Canada, instructing him to shell
ter Diaz If his personal safety was
endangered.
No protest was received to-day
from the Huerta administration
against the extension OF asylum to
Diaz.
However, Gen. Diaz cannot make
an American warship headquarters
for IA political propaganda; and his
ommunication with persons ashore
probably will be limited to members
OF his family or personal friends, and
must be non-political.

There is an old story told Of a native
of Borneo who, with a party. went out
to hunt an orang outang to sell to
show men. This particular hunter got
separated. and at the end Of the day
was still missing. A search was or
ganized. and at the end Of the second
day he was found high up In a tree
with an orang outang by his side. A
rifle shot killed the big ape and then
the man descended and told Of his
strange adventure He had gone into
the river to battle. and as be came out
was seized by the orang and carried
to its lodging in a tree. To his sur
prise he was not otherwise mOlested-
What the orang supposed him to be
or what would have been the eventual
outcome Of this strange captivity no
one knows, and the hunter willingly
gave up the chance Of finding out.

BROOKLYN. Sept. 26.-Supporter
of the New York Giants and the
worlds series got a double shock to-
day when they learned that Captain
Larry Doyle had been injured in an
automobile accident and Outfielder
Fred Snodgrass had sprung a
charley horse" in the game at Eb-
belts field today. Neither is likely
to play again for week and they
may be out of the worlds champion
ship series.
DOYLE received his injury last night
as he was driving home in the au-
tomobile he won as the best all
around National league player of
1912. Pitcher F'romme of the Giants
was a passenger Doyle became be-
Wildered by the fog and steered the
machine into tree. He was thrown
out on his right shoulder. Fromme
escaped with d shaking up.
Doyle did not realize until this
morning that his fan had possibly
injured him seriously. His physi
clan said the right arm was dislo-
Gated or the shoulder bone possibly
broken. Manager McGraw said he
would have Doyle placed under the
X-raN.
