Ign. Houck Is the second Athletic
player who refused to join Duns
flock. The other one, Danny Muir
ply, also Joined the Brookfeds.
Houck has been going very poorly
this spring and may not be missed.
1t was a clever move by the Feds,
for the orioles are going great guns,
and they did not want to see any
more playing strength added to Dun
MEG nine.
The Baltimore Feds claim an aver
age attendance of 5000 a day for their
home games.
The Buffeds are in sixth place. but
the novelty of seeing new teams
keeps the Buffalo fans on the fence

day for them. The Hoosiers slammed

costly errors.
Two runs piled up in the first in

GREGORY RASPuTIN, MYSTIC LAY
MONK GETS DIRK IN
ABDOMEN

st. Petersburg, July 1S..-Details
reached here today in dispatch to the
Courier of a probably fatal attack on
the mystic lay monk, Gregory Raspu-
tin. whose influence over the emperor
is said. to be very great.
Rasputin. who is one of the most
prominent figures in Russia in recent
years, was visiting his native village,
rokrcsvski, in the province of Tobolk,
Siberia, when a woman. a stranger to
the locality. approached him, pretend
ing to be beggar. After accosting him,
she stabbed him in the abdomen with
a long military dirk.
The assailant was arrested and con
fessed she had waited two weeks for
the opportunity. She said she had de
cided to kill the monk becaus he was
false prophet and was leading ev
erybody in Russia astray.
Doctors who examined the monks
wound declared it was likely to prove
fatal.
