Motorists and Pedestrians,

The number of accidents in the pub
| lie streets from careless use of auto
mobiles is alarming. But when one
thinks of the carelessness of the gen
eral public, it is really wonder that
there are not more.
In towns and cities crowded with mo-
tor cars and trucks, one sees as much
Indifference to safety as in small vii
lagos. Half the people on trying to
cross the street, never look either way
to see if anything is coming. The only
way for the driver to avoid. accident
is to run on their lowest speed and
keep their horns blowing. E
Many motorists are unwilling to re-
duce speed much below 10hmiles an
hour. Even in thick tangles of teams
and people, their theory is to keep
honking and let the public jump. This
is intolerable. But it is not more per-
ilous than the dreamy carelessness Of
pedestrians who never use their eyes,
and expect others to be wholly re-
sponsible for their safety.

times he even refused to talk
with Boston sport writer's, saying
that IL he talked with one he
would have to talk with all of
them and surely that would be a
bore.
Men who were in baseball long
before Haughton have found that
the game wouldn't have a chance
in the world to live without the
free publicity 1t gets, and that it
is wise to be at least civil In the
treatment of newspaper writer's.

BOSTON, Jan. 20. - Percy
Haughton. Harvard football
coach, who has become part own
er of the Boston Braves and will
be president, will need to change
some of his ideas, also his man
ners, to get along well as a base
ball magnate.
Haughton ruled like a car in
Harvard football affairs and was
"up-stage" in his treatment of
outsiders. In baseball he will
find there are others who have
something to say about the con-
duct of affairs, also that he will
be largely dependent upon out
siders, especially newspaper men,
for the success of his business.
Newspaper men have found
Haughton hard to approach. It
is even said of him that many

ROOterS Do

TO Win Game

Clerks of the Peoples Store of
Tacoma defeated the bowling
team of McDougal & Southwick,
of Seattle, in highly spirited
game last night on the Tacoma
bowling alleys.
The Seattle delegation was ac-
companied by two cars of root
ers who tried to outroot the To-
cal bowlers. The game resembled
anything but bowling contest.
The final score was $500 to
2,135.

The pitcher throws under
hand, as in indoor baseball.
More bases are stolen in the
ice game and outfielders cover
more ground because players can
move faster.
There is q lot of hitting be-
cause fnfielders are liable to be
little slower in starting for
ground-hit balls than IL they were
on turf and spiked shoes. There
are plenty of chances, however,
for spectacular plays by infield-
ers.
There has been talk of ice base
ball as a professional proposition
In New York with professional
ball players as the performers,
but the project was never at
tempted. It took the amateurs

city can't be decided on until the
Butte problem is disposed of.
Mayor Lane, of Butte, is a ball
bug, and was appointed chairman
Of committee to round up the
necessary funds to restore base
ball to the mining city again. He
said that the spirit was at bub-
bling stage, but that no definite
action had been taken.
1t is rumored that Anaconda
and Missoula will make an at
tempt to get franchises. Both
cities have considerable money.
Blewett did not express an opin-
ion as to the leagues desire to
grant franchises to other Mon
tana cities except Butte.

About the only difference in

On the map Arizona cannot possibly be the hottest place in the world. All of the Company E. boys are well and In good spirits although some are com blaming about their sore arms, the result of vaccination for typhoid. The vaccination did not make any of us sick but it had a peculiar effect and made us feel doped and sleepy. We have at last been relieved of the old New Haven road coaches which car ried us to Kansas. Onr new cars are the best that the Santa F'e road can produce. Nine cars make up our train and three of these are equipped with reclining chairs. All have double windows and the soldiers are very grateful for this additional ven tilation. During part of the trip the boys have been sitting about the cars in their union suits, so hot has it been.
 We stopped for over an hour at Tairport, Iowa, this evening and Major Purcell, who commands our battalion, permitted the boys an hours freedom. Almost to a man they took a swim in the Mississippi liver The boys of Company F. further demonstrated their superiority ever the members of the other com mands and Corporal Becker of New Britain performed the difficult stunt of swimming across the Mississippi river This is some feat when it Is considered that the river is over mile wide at this pont and in mid stream there is a strong current. Becker started from the Iowa shore and swan to the Illinois bank and return He covered almost four miles, counting the distance that he was swept down stream by the current.
 We expect to arrive in El Paso. Texas, sometime late Sunday after which we expect we will be sent inn mediately to Nogales. All of the boys are hoping that the mails have beat US to our destination and that there will be a quantity of home papers awaiting us. We have not heard a

Aboard Connecticut Troop Train in Texas, Sunday, July 2.-The Connec- ticut troops are expected to arrive in Fl Paso Monday and will then be sent on to Nogales, from present in dications. All of the members of Company I are tired of the long rail road trip and will be mighty glad to get settled in some camp. The officers are very cOnsiderate of our welfare and let us get off the train at every available opportunity. All of the boys have recovered from the drOwsy effects of their typhoid vaccination and are physically fit, although some of the more heavy members of Com rany I have reduced considerably be- cause of the precipitation. Other members, who have no superf1uOus flesh to reduce, are standing the heat better.
 through New Mexico we caught our first glimpse of real Mexicans. Several Mexican cowboys stood at one station as we rode past and cheered us. Since then we've been wondering if they meant it or not. Going through the desert country we have seen a number of mirages. e also crossed one part of the Ri6@sErande river. From what we have seen of it it does not come anywhere near being as attractive as the little old Connec- ticut. It is almost dry where we crossed and looks more like a desert than a river.
