ing to Joseph p. Nash, who gives a

dent Howard Elliott of the Northern
Pacific railway and received further
congratulations. He told Mr. Elliott
how the wheat was raised and demon
strated that good dry farming methods
or just common sense, will produce
not only good wheat but the maximum
yield per acre.

1.-THE five bushels which won the
prize were grown at an altitude OF
1900 feet where the rainfall does not
exceed II to Is inches. One crop had
been produced on the land before we
seeded it to this turkey red wheat, the
seed for which came from Gallatin

Increase in Marriage 5000, Against
1000 in New York.
New York.-Leap year ended with
far fewer New York girls having taken
advantage of their opportunities than
Chicago girls.
Compared with an increase of over
5000 marriages in Chicago the year
1912 as reported in a dispatch from
that city, the marriage license bureau
in New York announces an excess of
only about 1000 marriages here over
the number in 1911. The total for the
year has been 4S,264
The marriage license clerks declare
that there is no doubt that leap year
continues to have it's effect in matri-
monial business and say the records
every leap year keep up the tradition.

PEACE PROSPECTS BRIGHTER
Reported That Turkish Delegates Will
Present Modified Terms.

Notwithstanding apparent
ly insurmountable difficulties attend
ing the successful issue of the peace
conference, the prospects look bright
er, more because of the changing at
mosphere of the conference than on
account of any new fact.
In the first place it is stated on good
authority that the Turkish delegates
will present modified terms better
calculated to afford a basis for nego
tiations, and in the second place the
allies appear more anxious to come tC
real business if possible.

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
+, SCH0FIELD BARRACKS, Nov. Z.
Local interest in the card an
nounced by the management of the
Infantry Amusement hall enterprises
for the bouts on November IA is
largely focused on the temperance
in the ring of the two First Infantry
favorites, Kilsner and Piszczek.
The bout between these two classy
fighters has been announced and the
date set twice before but the meet
ings failed to take place owing to an
injury to Kilsner's. wrist which he re-
ceiFed in his last fight in town. The
big fellows condition at present is
reported to be excellent and there is
no doubt now that the meeting will
occur this month as advertised. Local
bets are about even, with perhaps
Kilsner a shade the fayorite owing to
the length OF the fight Piszczeks
boxing skill. punch, capacity to assiIn-
ulate stiff punishment are all .conced-
ed, b1t certain fans doubt his ability
to hold himself as fit as his big rival
to the end Of long fight. They also
stoutly maintain that he will never be
able to put Kilsner away early in the
fight and that TO win he will have to
make the victory on points.

that the collegians are possessed with
a degree of oVerc0nfid ence, for they
are all aware that the game will be a
fight from start to finish. It was by a
mere ffake that the coIlegians took
the game from the High school in
their first contest this year, and it
was keenly contested at every stage.
The Punahou men will depend upon
the Big Four namely, Harry Bald

and "Buck" Menoherto do the brunt
of the work tomorrow. Under the di.
rection of Coach Frank E. Midkiff
these men have undergone grilling
practice during the last few days,
while other coaches have worked with
the line. The last two days have been
given over to team work, lessons in
tackiing and perfecting new plays.
Several changes have been made in
the line, George McInerny having been
shifted from the pivot position to right
end, his place being taken. by Hind.
Whether this change will have any
effect on the strength Of the line. will
