Owed U. S. Twenty Cents
"For Bacon and Eggs
Special to The Telegraph

Washington, June 1.-THE Secre-
tary of War has received from Chi
cago a letter inclosing 90 cents in
stamps with the statement that the
sum is inclosed for bacon and eggs"
Mr. Garrison could not recall the
transaction so he turned the letter
over to the Treasury Department,
wheer the 90 cents was added to the
conscience fund" 1t is supposed
that a retired soldier during his term
of enlistment ate more than the law
allowed and that he now compensates
the Government for his meal.
The conscience fund, which in
reality has a separate existence only
on paper, has been growing slowly
since President Madison's Admins
tration, when a contribution of S5
was received. These contributions
now total nearly 100000. The money
is really turned into the General
Fund and is used for the ordinary ex-
penses of the Government.

A. A. U. Decides to Finance Trip
to Frisco in August; Trial
Events Next Week

New York, June IA rearrange-
ment of plans for the junior and the
senior track and field championships
of the Amateur Athletic Union, to be
held in connection with the EXposi-
ton in San Francisco on August 6
and Z, made necessary because of the
long distances that a majority of the
athletes will have to travel, was de-
cided upon here at a conference of
the Championship Committee of the
A. A. L. Originally the management
OF the Exposition had planned to pro-
vide for all expenses for the star
athletes, but a reckoning of the heavy
cost caused the a. A. L. to be ap-
pealed to.
Frederick n. Ruben. secretary
treasurer of the a. A. L. and chair
man of its Championship Committee,
announces after an executive session
of the committee that it had de-
cided to come to the relief in defray-
ing expenses of the men. He said
that the organization will send to the
Exposition about 25 men from the
East, 25 from the Chicago section,
and about five men from the Pacific
Northwest and Intermountain Asso-
citation. These men will be selected
after the Eastern try-outs at Boston
on June 26. when the regular events
Will be run of, and after the Middle
Western try-outs in Chicago on July
II, where the same number of events
also will be held.
For the swimming championships
the a. a. L. probably will transport
100 men to the Exposition, it was
announced. In the swimming events
there will be about IL men sent by the
A. A. L. New York and Chicago will
each contribute four men; st. Louis
one, and the remainder of the coun-
try three or four.

CHAMPION WILLARD
OUT FOR SUFFRAGE
Believes Women Are Mems Equals
Wife Votes in California;
Need Common Sense
By McMonus
Special to The Telegraph

Pittsburgh, June 17.-Jess Willard,
champion of the world, and the best
liked man who has ever held that
honor, because he is as clean and fine
morally as he is physically, is also a
champion of woman suffrage
Certainly I favor suffrage for, wo-
men," he said, when asked to-day
what he thought of the big question
now before the voters of Pennsyl-
vania.
81 believe that woman is mans
equal in mentality, at least. And if
a man is bright and wise enough to
know how to cast his ballot. why
shouldn't a woman be so?" The big
fellow asked the question in a man
ner that indicated there was only one
answer.
out in California, where I live
when at home" he continued, we
have woman suffrage. My wife is
registered among that States voters.
And there the womens vote has ac-
complished much that was left un-
done when only the men had a say
in making the laws.
The question of women's votes is
not, in my opinion, a serious problem.
think the application of a little bit
of everyday common sense wolkai
leave no difficulty in the way Of
granting women the franchise"

ADVANTAGES OF FALLowlNe
Among Other Things Practice Tends to
Conserve Moisture and Kills Many
koSlous Plants.

Among the many advantages to the
credit of the practice Of summer fal.
lowing may be mentioned: The con
servation Of moisture, the eradication
OF weeds, the preparation Of the land
for grain crops at a time when no
other work Ia pressing, the availability
Of summer fallowed land for seeding
at the earliest possible date In the
spring and the minor advantages OF
having suitable land for the growing
OF pure seed, potatoes, roots and vege-
tables at the least cost and with the
greatest chance for success. and that
Of being able to secure two crops OF
grain with little or no further Guilt
walton.
Summer following undoubtedly has
some disadvantages, but so long as
the growing OF grain, and more par
ticularly wheat, remains the principal
industry Of the province. It will be
necessary to store up moisture against
a possible dry season. to restrain the
weeds from o%verrunning the land. and
on o OF the short seasons, to
prepare at least a portion OF the land
to be cropped in the year previous TO
seeding and a weii-mRde summer fall
low is the best means to this end.
Among the disadvantages are' The
liability OF the soil to drift, the over
production Of straw in a wet season.
causing late maturity and consequent
danger Of damage BY frost, and It is
claimed. the partial exhaustion Of the
soil. The former two may. to a great
extent, be overcome by different meth
DDS Of cultivation, and II the soil can
be prevented from drifting, one OF the
reasons for the latter contention will
disappear,
