KING To WITNESS
. ARMY NAME I'VE RS
British Ruler Is No Soldier, but
Must Not Neglect Military
Duties Altogether
By HERBERT TEMPLE

LONDON. Sept. 2o.-King George is
no soldier. He does not care the least
for military display and does not pre-
tend to know anything about military
tactics, not even as much as he knows
about naval matters, but as the com
mander in chief OF the British army
he knows that 1t Is his duty not TO
neglect it altogether. So he has Just
come down from Scotland 10 witness
the annual September maneuvers.
He will appear In the uniform OF a
general on horseback, though he looks
miserable IN the saddle and feels so,
too.
But to King George escape is i'm
possible and on Monday morning he
Will set out at dawn and follow the
officers of his general stan across
country, asking to have every move
nent explained to him and silently
wishing for the day when II shall be
all over and when he VIII be permit
ted to take up the more congenial
work of signing documents of state.
AS long as the maneuvers last the
king will ride out every morning at
the side of Field Marshal French and
return to Aithorp castle IN time for a
late dinner, followed by a discussion
between the senior officers Of the
events of the day.
Queen Mary will also attend the

1t is the policy or the new owners

the state as well as the individual

be dotted across the tract, increasing
its community value and providing

Poachers Use Snuff

PARIS, Sept. 2o-Poaching by
means of SNUFF is the latest trick en-
pioyed by an organized band of men
IN the Vosges district, who obtain
large bags of rabbits. which are af-
terward sent to the Paris market
It has been discovered that the
poachers strew snuf at all the en-
frances to a rabbit warren and then
send ferrets into the holes. As each
rabbit leaves the hole II smells at the
powder and begins sneezing. So vio-
lent are its paroxyins that 1t rolls

SID CAVILL'S
HIGH OPINION
OF KAHANAMOKl)

That Duke Kahanamoku made still
ianother mark for himself in public
estimation at the recent Por1ola
swimming meet at San Francisco, is
shown by the fiattering press notices
! that have been received. Sid Cavill,
In his i-.z.e one of the worlds great.
est, 10 the latest to 60 to the mat for
the Hawaiian swimmer.
The San Francisco Post says:
Some years ago, when / won q
mile race and a sprint event in one
night they thought was a wonder,
said Professor Sid Cayill OF the Olym-
pic Club, one-time champion swimmer
Of the world, as he watched Duke Ka-
hanamoku win the 40, his fourth
straight win at Sutro baths last night.
In those days swimmers we're con-
sidered marvels who could get away
with more than one event But there's
the greatest swimmer the world has
ever known or probably ever will
know. All distances seem alike to
him and he is surely possessed of
wonderful endurance ] have seen
all the best of them, but have never
seen any one who even compares with
him
The duke Is all that Cavill said. He
failed to break any records only be-
cause the pick of the swimmers on
the Pacific coast could not give him
the necessary competition. In turn he
won the SO, 100. 220 and $40, and In
none OF them was he extended. He
slowed up at the finishing line in
every event and in each one, even
the short 50-yard dash, he won by
yards.
The relay race which concluded the
program provided the, best competi-
ton of the night and was the one
event in which Kahanamoku was
forced to extend himself. His team
mates sent him away on the last relay
with over five yards to make up in
the length of the tank. Every one of
the $500 enthusiasts in< the stands
was brought to his feet when the duke
started after Ernie Smith. Despite
the fact that he had already won
four events, the Hawaiian showed his
best speed in this last relay. He cut
through the water like motor boat
and was on event terms with the
winner ten yards from the finish, A
final burst of speed gave his team
the race by margin of about two
yards Duke was given great ova-
ton as he came out of the water.
One of the closest finishes of the
nigh was sor the second place in the
440-yard swim. Kahanamoku was an
easy winner, VITA Benton of the Y.
M. C. A. in second place for nearly
the entire distance. In the final sprint
for the finishing line Wilhelm of the
Hui Nalu got up just in time to beat
Benton out by a foot or so.

new ORDINANCE
WILL REGULATE
WHEEL WEIGHTS

Because the old ordinance prohib-
iting person from carrying a weight
in excess of five pounds on a bicycle
has worked a hardship on many per-
sons. particularly boys who use
wheels to deliver package, Deputy
City Attorney p. L. Weaver has pre-
pared an amendment to the law. =
The limit OF the weight is fixed at
Is pounds. 5. r.
The purpose of the law" he said,
when it was first passed was to pro-
hibit persons from carrying another
on the handlebars. believe they
went too far in setting the weight
limit at five pounds; hence the
amendment"
There Is another amendment GOV.
ering the subject generally, making
it unlawful to carry a weight which
may work danger to the bicycle rider
or olhers.
