 No game had been arranged for, Dut it was anticipated that some definite arrangement could be made, with so many American and National League players iii the city, and WAen the com mittee took the matter up first with Manager Carrigan of the Bostons he was not sure he would consent to let the team break in on a day of spring training, but thought the matter over and finally consented to the game.
 Gov. Hays and the mayors of va rious Arkansas cities who will be the guests of the Young Mems Cham her of Commerce ol that day, will at- tend the morning game.

"GEN' kELLYS MEN DESERT WHEN SUPPLY OF FOOD IS
 FINALLY SHUT OFF.
SCATTER OVER THE COUNTRY
And Farmers and Others Are ArmIny Themselves to Protect Homes Sacramento County Officials Stand Firm-VoIence Threatened.

Sacramento, Cal, March 11.-"Gen." kelly's army temporarily detained on it's march to Washington, went to bed supperless tonight in the shacks that form it's camp in Yolo county. Sac ramento county not only officially shut off the food supply which had been contributed by the county, but issued an order forbidding any per son conveying supplies across the bridge beyond which the indsutrial workers are camped.
 This move was ordered by the city and county authorities in the belief that it would cause disintegration of the army But some one disobeyed and twice a day food ia large quan- titles was sent to the camp. It was explained today when the source of the army's supply was discovered that the order for a single meal, given by a citizens committee, had been understood to mean supply until fur ther notice.'
 he result of shutting off food be- came apparent immediately. Men be- gan leaving the camp singly and in groups. By nigat the army which had numbered 1,500 Monday and dwindled to 1000 yesterday, further had been reduced to about 600 men. Leaders were finding it difficult to hold these in hand.
 The rural distric5s of Yolc county are now overrun by hundreds of hun gry men, who appear at orchard homes and enforce, with threats, their demands for food Perhaps half the male population of the county tonight was guarding homes and property.
 While the shutting off of food is in a measure solving the problem the situation with regard to the several hundred irreconciliables bent on marching on the national capital re- gardless of all obstacles is desoerately involved. Sacramento will not per. nit them to pass through. A half dozen surrounding counties have sery. ed official notice that they will maat with armed force any attempt to send them across their lines.
 Plans to ship the me1 in small groups in various directions scatter ing them beyond hope of reorganiza- ton fell flat today when the rail. roads refused to carry them. There is a state law forbidding the trans portation of undesiraDfea.
 Gov. Hiram Johnson, addressing the Ad Club here today praise1 the Sac ramento officials for their stern SUD- pression of Gen" Kelly and his army.
 The governor declared the problem Was not one of men involuntariiy out of employment, but of men who pre- ferred vagrancy and would no, work.

"1lIe the contents of Carranza's an. s|er were kept secret the impression was received by some persons that il mad afforded loophole through which to escape from what they considered a delicate position, due to a misun- derstanding of the implied meaning Of the first communication to the state department.
 In all of the exchanges the Mon. roe Doctrine, in its various interpre- tations had not been mentioned But the position of the United States as protector of Latin American against European invasion and its relation to ward foreign countries in event of menace to their citizens was fore most in the unofficial discussion of the situation.
 Gen. Carralza's position has been difficult, it was pointed out. because Of what constitutionalists considered improper activity of English capital toward the Huerta government. On the other hand, constitutionalsts said there had been a distinct misunder. standing at least on the part of the Washington officials of Carranza's stand in declining to furnish more information regarding the death of the Briton.

ATTRACTIVE FOWL FROM
AN OLD HOLLAND CITY
Hamburgs, Known as Dutch
Everlasting Layers, Keep
Up Their Reputation.
NJ EDWIN MEGARGEE.

The city Of hamburg gave Its name TO
this attractive breed Of fowls which orig
mated centuries ago In Holland. The
breed Is now represented by six varie-
ties, the Golden Penciled. the Silver Pen
clied. the Golden spangled. the Silver
Spangled, the White and the Black.
The Golden and Silver Spangled varie-
ties are said to have been produced In
England. This was accomplished by
crossing the penciled varieties on some
OF the native spangled fowls and then
breeding back to type.
All Of the Hamburgs excel In beauty,
being considered by many TO he among
the most beautiful of all domestic poultry.
The spangled and pencileu varieties even
rival the pheasants In beauty of form
and feather.
The great beauty Of these fowls has In
some measure initiated against them, Tor
II has caused some to class them as
purely ornamental fowls without invest-
eating their very real utility value. 1he
Hamburgs are and always have been
exceptionally fine egg producers. and in
the old DAYS they were known as the
| "Dutch everlasting layers" They lay fair
| sized white shellcd eggs and are most
| persistent In their efforts.
The Hsmburgs have a distinctive tyre
and carriage OF their own, tue nedtesl

manls that all varieties OF Htmbures
