About a week later they killed the
German Kronprinz in three different
places at once, wiped the floor, with
the German guards under his COM

Crown Prince was in Metz ali the
time and never had been anywhere
near Paris. | noticed your paper new
er said anything about this. as you
simply looked up events in this war
and found out that said Crown Prince
could not be anywhere near Paris.
Why Is 1t that the Advertiser has
harped again and again on the Allies
successes in big headlines. sometimes
over the same news for three days
continually Most of the reports were
unofficial rumors from Paris, London
and Petrograd Have you ever seen

BOSTON TERRIERS
PARADE ON ROOF
Little Boy Captures the
HOnOrs at Spe-
Cialty Show.

Boston terrier fanciers gathered on
the roof Of the Hotel Gregorian last
night, for the second of the monthly
matches of the newly formed Boston
Terrier Breeders Association.
The new club, which is not yet six
months old. is a most onterprising in
FAINT. for the entries numbered PIC,
representing almost a hundred dogs.
Some good looking youngsters made
their appearance, the only difficulty
being in identifying the entrants, as
there were no catalogues and post
entries were received. Many Of the
ringsiders had TO view the show by
proxy, as they were lined up three
doep and those who were nearest the
rope passed the word along TO the
less fortunate ones, keeping them
posted on the judges decisions.
julius VI. Faughman placed the dogs,
assisted by Harry BaccO. who was the
ring steward. and passed out blue
ribbons and the heartachcs inversely.
Robert Waters is superintendent and
secretary.
There was long list O. specials.
which included everything from s. in
gold TO a bottle Of mango cure.
The dog which was picked for vim
ncrs was Mike Ryan's Little Boy, n
fine dark brindlc dog, with perfect
markings. The only trouble seemed 10
be that Little Boy had not competed
i'm any of the regular classes and was,
therefore, not eligible to compete for
winners. At least. that was what Mrs.
Simpson claimed, who won the reserve
with !. J. Barrctt's Highball Sensa-
ton. Mrs. Simpson has until recently
owned Sensation, and as she bred him
II was only natural that she should
take q keen interest in his career.
There was nothing to do, however,

vett promptly did. as his dog had
swept everything before him up to the
time Of Little Boys advent Mrs. Har-
vey's Trimount Countess. beautiful

winners, decision which was greeted
b. a round Of applause from the ring
siders.
Among the other winners were
Benny, from the Crystal Kennels, q
seven months Old puppy, which won
the junior class; Riugmastcr III. a
big. handsome dog, owned by Mrs.
Simpson, which took novice, limit and
open classes; Lady Fosca, which won
The junior puppy class; Molly $. III,

FIGHT TO Limit
OLYMPIC ENTRIES
Motion Passed for Only 4
Starters in Each Event,
Then ReCOnSidered.

Paris, June 22-The International
Olympic Congress rejected to-day a mo-
ton by Colonel Robert VI. Thompson,
Of New York. to allow in each track
and field event twelve entries and six
contestants from each country. This
was supported by all the American
delegates and by Sweden.
The other countries objected TO the
motion because so large a number of
entries and contestants would, they
said, be too expensive for the smaller
countries TO maintain and send to the
games.
Colonel Thompson urged that coun-
tries with large populations ought TO
have more representatives in order 10
give them prOportionately as great an
opportunity for competition.
Nevertheless, the congress voted on
the motion of Franz Roichel, of
France, to limit each country to teams
OF siX-four to compete and two alter
mates. Later this was reconSidered.
The congress accepted proposal by
the Rev. Robert Stuart de Courcy
Laffan, chairman Of the English dele
cation, that each sport be considered
as unit in scoring, and that no grand
award be made TO country for total
score made up by taking all the vari-
Gus sports together.
II was represented that at previous
Olympic games there had been many
difficulties and disputes over the rela-
tive rating Of sports. The new system
Of scoring, it was pointed out, would
allow a country superior in one branch
Of sport to receive an award for il.
The American delegates were not
satisfied with the decision Of the
Congress limiting each country ia
four contestants and two alternates
which had been passed by majority
Of about twenty, the number Of vot-
Crs having been 10, 50 that Colone
Thompson, Allison Y. Armour anC
James +. Sullivan convassed actively
during the noon recess and succeeded

delegates to their way of thinking.
Dr. Ruperty, of Germany, at thC
afternoon session moved the recon
sderation of the question, coupled
with the following resolution:
THE congress entrusts to the In
ternational Olympic committee thC
/ power 70 regulate IHe NUMBER u ell
tries and starters in each sport, pro
vided the committee receives re-
quest from the International Fedora
ton Of the branch Of sport concerned
prior 10 October ! next"
This motion was passed almos
unanimously. only six delegates vot
ing against it.
Colonel Thompson, at the beginning
of the proceedings, expressed regre
that i'll feeling had been displayed
during the morning session. He SAFE

SHAWNEE TROPHY
A SILVER SHIELD
Country Club Plans to
Make It's Annual Golf
Tourney a Classic.

An innovation so far as professional
golf in the United States is concerned

the shield, which will be held by the
club represented by the winner. As is

ings. the leader receives first money,
and that is all At Shawnee there also
has been gold medal.
The successful pro or amateur. as
the case may be. in the coming tOurna-
mcnt will be the third name on the
new trophy, for the reason that it is
the intention to head the list with the
two previous winners. in 1912 Fred
Mcleod showed the way over the sew
cnty-two hole route, while last summer
John ]. NcDermOtt, the Atlantic City
home-bred. gathered in additional fame
