WIRETAPPER CROOKS CAUGHT
AND FORFEITED BONDS

St. Augustine, Feb. 5 5.-Two al
legged pool room operators were sur
prised in their den on Anastasia Is
land, near South Beach, on Tuesday
afternoon by Chief Quigley and 9TH
er city officers. They were working
the old game that in former seasons
was worn threadbare here. Their
stool pigeons settled on a guest at
one of the hotels and steered him
over to the alleged pool room, which
was fitted up with all the apparatus
to be found in race pool room. Tel
egraphic instruments and telephones
were very conspicuous, but they
were connected by wire with buttons
under the desk, which the operator
pressed with his feet when he want
ed action to impress the visitor
They persuaded their intended vic
tim to bet $4,000 on the result Of
a race.
He put up check for the amount
and later was advised that he had
won $4,000. He was asked to pro-
duce $1,000 in currency to prove to
the gamblers that his check was
good. They promised to pay up when
he produced the cash as evidence of
good faith.
He departed and told Chief Quig-
ley about the adventure. The chief
advised him to go back and continue
negotiations. While the negotiations
were in progress the police raided
the den and captured two men. The
latter each gave bond of $4,000,
but did not show up for trial at
court when their cases were called.
The city has jurisdiction over Anas-
tasia Island, and this was not known
by the crooks, who were five miles
down the beach.

COOPERATIVE CITY OF =.
GERMANS IN FLORIDA

Jacksonville, Feb. A cooper
ative city composed of settlers and
home seekers from the North and
West is the plan of Dr.. Asher r .
Gluck, who recently purchased 500
acres Of land near Lawley and Max
well on the Seaboard Air Line. 1t
il planned to organize homeseekers,
mostly Germans, and bring them
from Chicago to Clay county, the
first group to consist of about 500
families.
The community is to be one sim
liar to that in Clare county, Michi-
gan, says Dr.. Gluck, and will form
cooperative chain of farms that
trade and also sell their products on
the outside, such profit going into
the pockets of all concerned.
The land acquired is some of the
richest in the State and is noted for
its adaptability for growing straw
berries and garden truck. Speaking
of the proposed city, DR.. Gluck said:
This new city will be called the
Alliance, the peoples city. This
ideal city will be of great benefit to
about 10000 families, who will work
together for the common good, each
for the good of all, and all for the
common good, each for the good of
all, and all for the good of each;
where labor capital and patronage
will be brought into closest possible
relation

AUSTRIANS CAPTURE
SERBIAN STATE ARCHIVES
(By Associated Press J

Budapest, Feb. 5-Notwithstand-
ing the utmost efforts of the Ser
bians to rescue all their archives,
those belonging to the ministry of
state have been captured by the
Austrians and taken to Vienna. The
discovery of the important docu-
ments is due to an Austrian Red
Cross nurse.
During the Austrian crossing of
the Save river the general staff of
one division quartered itself in an
old cloister inhabited by a monk, and
an Austrian nurse who had been cap
tured by the Serbians and forced by
them to cook at the cloister. She
had been there two months, she told
the officers. C
Just after her arrival, she said,
huge motor truck rolled up one
night. 1t was manned by fleeing
Serbians who forced those in the
house into a room and locked them
in for six hours When they were
released motor truck and the huge
cases 1t had contained had disap-
peared. The nurse was sure the
truck had been unloaded at the clois-
ter.
The general staff Immediately be-
gan an investigation of the prem
ises. In the wine cellar they finally
earth. When they excavated at this
point they found GA cases containing
all the state archives.

The big money has not been paid
exclutively for Federal League stars
for retiring baseball magnates have
sold their club stock for many times
what it cost them a few years ago.
The sale of the Chicago Cubs, Boston
Braves, st. Louis Brown and New
York Americans. brought close to
$4,000, 900. which was more than
double what the previous owners paid
for these clubs. Now Manager George
t. Stallings. of the Boston Nationals
has just closed a five year contract
with that club at an annual salary re-
ported to $4,000. Just where re-
trenchment and economy come in is
not apparent unless the magnates

Norfolk, Va, Feb. Some of
the officers and crew blame Captain
Harrison for the loss of the Appam.
Captain Harrison was warned be-
fore leaving West Africa, 1t is said,
to keep clear of the Canary Islands,
as there were suspicious indications
that German raiders were at work.
All the British aboard the Appam
were forced to sign papers that they
would not bear arms against Ger

BASEBALL PLAYERS
SALARIES TO BE REDUCED
(By Associated Press

New York, Feb. 4-Following the
peace agreement between the Fed
leral League and Organized Baseball
it was stated by the big league mag
mates that baseball salaries and ex.
penses would be revised downward
Players salaries were to be reduced
and their contracts issued from year
to year in place of the long term
agreements in vogue during the con-
flict between organized and independ-
ent interests.
1t was pointed out that the ma
iority of the clubs could not meet ex-
penses under the conditions existing
and that it would be necessary to
curtail salaries, expenses, training
trips and in general bring to bear a
modern business efficiency system in
order that professional baseball
might be placed on paying basis
again. While it is possible that the
magnates may be planning to in
angurate such a system there cer-
tainly is no sign of such movement
at the present time.
In the matter of preparing for the
1916 baseball season the magnates
both old and new appear to have
taken a leaf from the book of the
promoters of the proposed Willard
Moran bout and entered the field Of
frenzied finance. In buying baseball
club stock, securing Federal League
starts and signing managers the sums
spent surpass all previous records and
it will require some very clever re-
trenchment in the months to come
If the magnates expect to reach the
financial plane outlined only a few
months ago.
Five clubs in the National and
American Leagues alone, have paid
more than $4,000 for the privilege
of assuming the top-heavy contracts
of ten of the Federal League stars, IL
credence can be placed in the sale
figures announced to the press. In ad-
dition to paying large sums for the
requirement of these players, the
clubs are legally obliged to continue
the salaries agreed on between the
former Federal League magnates and
their star players and these salaries
are known to be extremely high.
The average purchase price of
these ten players is trifle over s12,-
900 and since 1t is certain that their
average yearly salary is at least
$4,000 the initial years outlay will be
about s175.OO0, as can be seen from
the following list of players and their
sale price:

Far be it from me 10 try to de-
scribe something that poets and

since the world began. Love is a
short word, but it contains all. II
is worth waiting for: it is worth
dying for rather than miss the real
thing. When you find that nothing

what is the use trying to give the

makes the demand for a mate. You
know not what the restless calling

your nature YOU think Of; YOU only
know YOU want that something of
