POSTAL DEP0SlTORS
reflect MOVEMENT
OF ITALIAN TROOPS

Almost every important battle or a
turn in the tide of affairs of Europe
has its effect on the postal savings de-
partment of the Richmond postoffice.
When the Italians suffer defeat,
the next day finds goodly number OF
Italians making application at the pos
tai savings window to withdraw their
accounts.
When~the United States sent note
to Germany and chances for implica-
ton of this country in the European
conflict became a little more evident
to some of the local foreigners, the
Withdrawals told the story.
Last month the foreign colony felt
the stress Of the war more than ever
before and as a result a decrease OF
$500 resulted in the receipts of the
local savings department, according to
Henry Deuker, head of the savings de.
partment
"A reaction seems to be setting in
now said Mr.. Deuker, land the for
e1gners are again gaining confidence
This month will show that a gain has
been made
Many of the Withdrawals have been
made by foreigners and the money
sent to the old country to aid friends
and relatives.

Single G is owned by William Bare
foot of Cambridge City, and was pilot
ed to victory by the well-known train
er, Curt Gosnell. Last summer, after
Single G had showed that he was a
PAGER of class, Mr. Barefoot was ap
preached by well-known Detroit
horseman who offered him $500 fol-
the colt. The offer was turned down
and the wise one shook their heads
and said that the Cambridge City man
was making a serious mistake in not
letting him go. Barefoot had bred
and raised the young son Of Anderson
Wilkes and knew him better than any
one else. Single G won $500 during
the season and went into winter
quarters the champion 4year-old pacel
over a halfmile track. In June Single
G was shipped to the North Randall
track to be prepared for his campaign
down the Grand Circuit. After a few
workouts the horseman at the Cleve

PAGER, and while on visit to the
track, Barefoot was asked to put 6

fused to do.

and refreshments, will mark the open
ing, Thursday evening, of the Cliff
Dale Auto club house, opposite Cedar
Springs hotel, according to the an
nouncement of Louis Emmons today.
Invitations have been mailed to

Raise Sunken Hull.
Plans went forward today for the
raising Of the sunken hull of the
steamer, which is believed to hide the
fate of possibly 507 persons who are
missing according to the latest revis.
ion Of figures by Western Electric
Company officials. The official report
today contained the names of S24 dead
whose bodies have been identified
There were five unidentified bodies in
the second regiment armory morgue
Adding these to the missing, it was
figured the probable total death toll
of the tragedy would be 1886.
While police, firemen, divers and
volunteer workers labored about the
sunken vessel, a high board fence
shielded them from the gaze of the
curious. The barrier was constructed
during the night completely surround
ing the section of the river which
holds the death ship. Street cars were
permitted to cross the Clark street
bridge but passengers who thronged
the cars just for sight of the scene
of the catastrophe spent their car fare
for nothing.
The special federal grand jury or
dered by Federal Judge Lands was
ready to begin its part of the Eastland
investigation tomorrow morning
With Secretary of Commerce William
C. Redfield in personal charge of the
governments inquiry and with the
county grand jury pledged to turn al
of its evidence over to the federal au
thorities, concrete results were pre-
dicted as the result of the activity Of
the cabinet member and his aides.

ASKS HIGH GUARANTEE.

Somerville has made proposition
to the s. A. L. for a booking at Ath-

league b. the Ohio team is a trifle
high, and IL they insist on that figure
the S. A. L. probably will turn down
the offer.
With fast factory teams out OF Day

could be booked for a much less sum,
officers OF the league cand hardly see

years no member of the famous base

league star
There were five Delahanty brothers,
all trained on the sand lots in Cleve-
land, and every one of the five found
his way into the big show, remaining
there long enough to add lustre to the
baseball fame of the family.
Ed Delahanty was the first brother
to enter the big leagues. He blossom
| ed into a major league star in the
| late eighties, and from then on until
| 1908, when he met a tragic death by
! falling from a bridge, he ranked as
one of the greatest batsmen the game
ever produced. He hung up clouting
records that remain until this day.
Tom was the second brother to play
major league baseball.
! Joe Delahanty was the third He
played with St. Louis for number
of years. Jim was the fourth to enter
the big leagues, and Jim lasted long
time as a major Lacquer. He was a
star for the Detroit Tigers for many
years, and ranked as one of the best
infielders in the business. In 1914
Jim jumped to the Feds. The other
day he was released to the Colonial
| league, the minor organization of the
Federals.
Frank was the fifth Delahany broth
er to play in the majors. He was
with Cleveland for time and later
played with the Yankees.

TO FEED 500 MEN
An Experienced Caterer Makes an
Estimate of the Amount of
Provisions Necessary.

That it is considerably harder to
forecast the number of people who
will attend a banquet than it is to
figure out how much each man will
eat is the belief of Billy" Bond,
caterer for many years for the Ma
sonic temple banquets.
It's dead easy to guess how much
each man will eat" says Mr.. Bond.
by the time you have served a dozen
banquets there's nothing at all to it,
and l simply go to the phone and
order the amount of groceries to fill
the menu Last Saturday night
served a dinner to 500 men. Here
are the amounts you buy when feed
ing that many:
Six bushels of potatoes.
Four boxes of grape fruit.
Two hundred pounds of pork or the
equivalent of a husky pig.
Twelve pounds of coffee.
Ten pounds of butter
Fifteen gallons of ice cream.
Fifteen hundred rolls.
Six gallons of olives
One hundred mince pies.
Twenty-Five pounds of cheese
THAT will give 500 hungry men a
full meal We get the meat in big
roasts and fairly fill the stove with
them. 1t takes the girls and me about
day to put on an ordinary banquet,
although that Abdallah turkey dinner
took two days to prepare. You see
this cold weather we put the first
course such as grape fruit on the
table and let it remain there all day.
Mr. Bond has charge of all the
banquets served at the Masonic tenn
pie During his service as caterer
mere ana over Kansas he has managed
thousands of dinners. In fact he
himself doesn't know how many.
