NO GOVERNMENT
HELP FOR COTTON
Chairman Glass of House Committee
Tells Bankers Congress Will Re-
iect Proposed Scheme.

RICHMOND, Va.-Chairman Glass
of the house banking and currency
committee told the convention of the
American Bankers Association today
he felt confident that proposals for
government valorization of cotton or
the sale of government bonds to take
the crop off the planters hands
would not result in action by con-
gress. If it were done, he declared
it would not be of permanent benefit
to the cotton producer.
Outlining some recent legislative
history he said it often was more
important to prevent things from
being done than to do things"
$3.50. 900, 900 Bond Proposition.
Especially is this true" he de-
clared, with reference to some of
the propositions pending, such as the
suggestion to have the government
go into the cotton business by valor-
izing this single product at the ex-
pense of all the American people
And so with the other suggestion
that the government sell $250,OO0,-
600 worth of bonds and use the pro-
ceeds for the purchase of single
product"

The guns. according to Mr.. Gall,
will have calibres of 1850 and 2l,45
inches and are being rushed to COM
Dletion at the Krupp plant in Essen.
THE new guns will shoot from
twpntv-one to twenty-five miles, y
Mr. Gall said. THE Germans plan
to suppIant the present batteries OF
16-inch guns with these and then
mount the old guns on the battle
ships
Then if the German army has
CAPTURED Ostend and some other
points along the channel the new
big guns will be ranged there to hold
off the British navy and troop ships.
In this way the Germans feel they
can control a considerable portion of
the English channel off Calais and
Ostend. One shot from either OF
these guns would demolish dread
nought."
Mr.. Gall said he received his in

guns from friends in the Krupp COM

BASEBALL PLAYED AT MIGHT
League Games In Saskatchewan Be,
gin at 7:15 O'Clock in Regina
and Terminate at 10.

Regina. the capital of Saskatehe-
wan province, with population Of
about 10000. has adopted tho more
daylight plan of moving the hands
of the clock forward one hour. The
change went into effect May / and
will continue up to October 1. As
result. the baseball games start at
tbs. 1t will be possible then to con-
tinue play up to 10 o'clock.
The crowds are composed of about
three-quarters men and one-quarter
women rooters, and average about
1900 game the year around. 1t is
an everyday sight to see fifty or sixty
automobiles lined up along the right
and left field foul lines. And how
these automobiles do root! Every
noisemaking instrument known is
brought into play to cheer on one of
the home boys. A good play by a
visitor also brings out a round Of ap-
plause. 81.
A peculiar situation turned up at
Regina a few days ago. In the ninth
inning against Saskatoon Regina had
men on first and second, with one
man out and the score to against
them. Jack Smith laid down a bunt
which the pitcher, Cadreau, threw
into the bleachers Both runners
scored, apparently winning the game.
but, owing to the ground rule which
permitted only two bases on wild
throw, Umpire Colgate ruled that only
one run had scored, and the other
could not pass third base. In the
meantime the crowd rushed on the
field and carried off the players, and
It was impossible to resume play.
AS it stood the score was tie, man
on second and third and one out.
President Fleming, to whom the
matter was finally referred, ordered
the game played over, owing to the
fact that the crowd was allowed to
rush on the field and prevent further
play.

TYRUS COBB'S CRACKED RIBS
Georgia Peach, Planned for His "Vi-
cious" Sliding, Gives His Own
Version of the Matter.

Speaking of Ty Cobb's ribs, the re-
suit Of an all too strenuous slide into
a base, reminds me of an incident con-
corning that wizard Of the paths. Cobb
has always been PANIED all around
the American ring for his vicious"
base sliding.
The Tigers had played this day at
the Yankee park. AS usual Ty had
slid into some baseman and the eve
ming papers had taken him to task
because of his deliberate spiking."
That night Cobb was playing billiards
at his friend, John Doyle's. The ques-
ton of his base-sliding was talked of.
Suddenly Cobb dropped his cue, and
facing half hundred fans-some for
him, but most against him-he said:
They say cut men down purpose
ly on the bases. / play the game to
win. can't help it If they block my
way. When I'm coming into a base
feet foremost, have the right of
way. It's the rule of baseball. But I
want all you men to bear witness that
Ty Cobb doesn't do all the cutting
down. Just look here boys" and Ty
sat on the billiard table and pulled
up both trouser legs to his knees.
Each leg was cut from ankle to
knee in a frightful way. Hardly an
inch of whole skin remained uncut or
bruised. "And they say deliberately

VILLA BEARS CHARMED LIFE
Rebel General Believed by His Fre-

All Danger.

New York-The luster of Villas

have just come to northern Mexico via
New Orleans from Mexico City assure
me that thousands of federals, dis
gusted with the bungling of their off,

mand of the former Chihuahua mule

Outlook. The federals are convinced
that he bears a charmed life. Time

tried for him as he doomed UP sud-
denly on his big bay horse, directing
the aim of the artillery with quick,
deep commands: MAS derecho" (more
to the right, or POGO MAJ izquierda
"a little more to the left, as he rode
up where the bullets whined louder
and dismounted to take rife in the
trenches. One of these keen-eyed fed
eral rifiemen when taken prisoner had
the brazenness to tell Villa of his
efforts to bag the big leader.
Il fired at you ten times, mi gen.
eral; but it's no use, you bear charm,
and my old girl (his rifie) knew it and
baked"
The frown that had begun to cloud
Villas unshaved face broke into a
smile.
That's right, boy. No use wasting
ammunition on me. Now go back and
tell that to your companions" He
waved toward the hills that sheltered
the enemy.
But, mi general, want to fight for
you," pleaded the little sharpshooter.
DO as say; andale (hurry up),"
beloved Villa, and motioned to three
soldiers, who threw the poor federal
on to a knock-kneed, razor-backed
mule, which, under the urge of bay
onet thrust in the flank, sped for the
distant hills at jack rabbits speed,
with the unhappy soldier bounding on
the animals sharp back like live
crab on a grill.
He'll tell his friends some good
stories If they don't shoot him before
he reaches them," said Villa, with one
of his queer, characteristic facial puck
erings, as he turned to help brother
officer who was having trouble with a
new saddle.

the digging there seems no doubt,

millions of dollars worth Of gold dust
were handled about 60 years ago.

IN THE restless realm of fashion one
L finds greater stability and uniform
TT in the styles created for little girls
than in any other direction. In fact, a
very large proportion of all frocks for
young misses show variations of q
single model. The long waist, or
blouse, joined to the short skirt, as
pictured here, is developed in all sorts
of fabrics and is followed closely in
line in the simplest as we'll as the
most elaborate of children's dresses
There is nothing finer or more ele-
CANT than a dress of embroidered or
CANDY or swiss or batiste, trimmed
with one or two of the several durable
laces that will stand any amount of
cleaning. Cluny and the filet laces,
with the best German or French val,
will last as long as the fabric of the
dress, and in fact cluny and filet laces
will outwear strong fabrics. Val is
somewhat less durable, and also less
expensive.
In the picture straight panel ex-
tends down the front of the dress from
neck to hem. The required fulness Is
introduced into the waist by groups of
tiny hand-run tucks in the material
at each side of the panel. The front,
including panels and sides, to the I'M
derarm seams, is in one piece and an
extra length at the bottom provides
the ruffie. The fulness In the back is
provided by tiny tucks, as at the
sides.
