Will War Kill Athletics?

From Outing.
 It has been the general impression in the United States that the war abroad has killed athletics in Europe, or at least among the conflicting na- tions which take up most of the space on the map for a good many years to come. Reports of the death of one champion after another In every line of sporting activity have tended to deepen this impression until 1t has attained the force of conviction. In truth the roll of fatalities among men who have been prominent in all the branches of athletics has been extremely heavy It has seemed as though the machinery of modern destruction has taken an in- animate delight in scrapping. the phys ical machines which were recognized as the finest embodiment of the power and skill of modern manhood.
 Statistics of wholesale casualties have become commonplace. Peonle have lost the power of becoming shocked by them: but what man who remembers that 1.-the and gloriously powerful Australasian who helped his country to an international championship at Forest Hills after the war had actually begun, can fail to experience the initial horror of life sacrificed which was forced home when the news came that Anthony F. Wilding had fallen on the plains of Flanders?

MEXICAN BANDIT IS MOVING NORTHWARD
 THREATENING RAID
Coming From South of LaredO-TroOps at That Point Insufficient to
 Repel Attack

San Antonio, Tex, June 6.-General what appeared to be positive informa- tion that Louis De La Rosa was march, ing from a point south of Laredo in the direction of the border with the evident intention of raiding the coun- try somewhere west of Rio Grande City.
 There are not now in that district enough American troops to prevent De La Rosa and his men from crossing.
 Gen. William A. Mann, commanding g the American forces in that district, with headquarters at Laredo, has re- ported to General Funston that he is taking such measures as possible to strengthen the patrol towards the east and to guard Laredo.
 Only one troop of cavalry now is stationed in Zapata county, where De La Rosa is expected to attempt to en- ter the United States. Other than that the bandits were comparatively near the border and moving in the general direction of Zapata county. it was not hllO II Wilcl Ol dI Juol WlidI punt Dc La Rosa intends to strike.
 It was intimated that, in the event the raiders succeeded in crossing the boundary before endorsements ar rive, they will be pursued into Mexico if theyeare not captured on the Texas side of the border.
 De La Rosa was one of the leaders of the group that directed the raids west of Brownsville year ago. Since then he has been a fugitive in his own country with price of 5000 on his head, offered by the state of Texas.
 The information that reached Gen Ar1l Funston indicated that De La Rosa would not be more than two or three days at the most in getting to the border. If the raiders strike American territory in Zapata county liNe in- jury to the residents is anticipated be- cause, with the exception of one or two families, all the residents are Mexi- cans. From the farmers a large number of horses and mules could be secured, however.
 General Mann has at Laredo and in it's vicinity one squadron of cavalry, a regiment of infantry and battery of artillery.

TALKS ON THRIFT
Making Decisions

From the time we are old enough to know right from wrong we are compelled to make decisions; to say yes to some things and mo" to others. In fact, all life consists in yielding to good impulses and resisting the bad. No man ever sue ceeded unless he learned this lesson We can never form a character, acquire prop erty, gain knowledge, provide for old age, take care of those dependent upon us, or get a job worth while until we learn to make decisions. And the men who draw the big salaries are those who can pass judgment, and are willing to stand by the judgments they make.
 It is the easiest thing in the world to the easy thing. If a man would acquire an education he must forego pleasures for a time. If he would get and keep a good job he must deny himself indug- ences that do not tend in the right di- rection If he would save money he must make decision after decision and stick to them.
 How many of us resolve that we will save money and make a good start, but fall down, because we yield to the temp tatior to go to those places or in that company where our resisting power will be weakened. Suppose we have a spare night. If we stay at home we know that we wont spend any money. If we go to the theatre we will spend a certain amount; but if we go to the club, or out with the crowd, we are not certain where we will go, or what we will do, and be- ing with the crowd we must do as the crowd does. The result is bound to be a breaking down of the resolution to save.
 The habit of consistently saying mo can only be acquired when a man has an ambition, goal, and an incentive. If he would own home, acquire a business, get a good job. be a man among men, and have master passion, the impetus will be with him steadily to spur him on and help hi,.i make the many little de- cisions that bring the result he desires.

overtime" in the brotherhoods' schedules does not differ entirely between actual overtime remuneration and that form of work in railroading which is classified under that name and which under certain conditions enables the worker to draw double compensation for two different tasks done at different periods during one days work. MT. Lee said the schedule was unjust.
 At the conclusion of the presentation of the brotherhoods' case MT. Garrett son stated that the employees would not deny that their demand would cost the railroads more money.
 We know that our proposition will add to your operating costs" said MT. Gar retson, "but we do not agree with you as to the amount it is going to cost you.
 The railroads claim that the demands of the employees would increase their op- erating costs by more than $100,OO0, ,OOO The brotherhoods assert that the increase would not exceed $25,000000.

HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville, June 6.-(Special )-Boosters of the several highway propositions af feCting Madison county held a mass meet ing under the auspices of the Huntsville Chamber of Commerce yesterday after noon and formulated plan for the im- mediate improvement of all the roads of fered Gs links in the Jackson highway Dixie highway and Tennessee valley highway providing for reconstructed roads from border to border in Madison county and costing about $5o,oOo. A com mttee was appointed to lay the matter before the county commissioners, which was done later in the day and after an executive session, the commissioners while not promising to expend definite sum, pledged themselves to have the highways improved according to specifi- cations.
 During tho mass meeting addresses were made by Henry B. Chase, Tracy w. Pratt, Mayor Milton Lanier, Law renee Cooper, David A. Grayson, Commis- eioner Humphrey, Ed C. Betts, and oth- ers urging that immediate action be talk en to secure the three projected high ways which will be definitely located next snent of the through highways from the fall. The plans provide for the improve n, rthern to the southern, and eastern to western borders of Madison county.
 Many road boosters were enlisted for trips into Marshall and Jackson coun- ties in Alabama, and Franklin and Lin coln counties in Tennessee. mass meeting of representatives of Madison county, and Franklin and Lincoln coun- ties, Tennessee, will be held at Flora, Tenn, Wednesday of this week to boost the Winchester-H Huntsville route and large delegation will go from here.
 Good roads sentiment was never strong CT here than at present and this years building promises to break some records.
 Charging the special grand jury impan- eled yesterday to investigate alleged fraud and corruption in the democratic primary election. Judge James H. Balen- tine said that the elections will not be freed of corruption unless some of the of- lenders are indicted. He said it has been claimed before that poor man cannot afford to run for office in Madison conn ty against wealthier opponent because the latter would beat him by turning loose enough money to win had been suggested to him in a facetous way he said. that Madison county might just as well auction off the offices to the Highest bidder md sell them outright
 CLlry Turner of Madison Cecss Roads was made foreman of the grand jury and it is expected that the sessions wiF be ended within rf'ree days. MT. Tate. srec,al representative or the attorney general, is aiding in the Ill. s.,sstion.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-06-07

The bread line is full of men who could not make decisions and stick to them; who played with temptations of various kinds antil they lost out; whose declin- ing years must be spent in doing the easy things because in other days they couldn't do the hard ones.
 You never will learn the secret of how men acquire money until you learn the fine art of making decisions; and if you do not learn this lesson for yourself. the world will decide for you, and the de- cision will doubtless be that you have no will power. are not strong in keeping promises to yourself and therefore can not be expected to be strong in keeping those to others, and relegate you to the ranks of the "has beens." or the never was" where you will drift along until tho end. The saddest thing on the ocean is drifting ship, and the saddest thing in life is the man who is going mo- where and cares not how long it takes him to get there.

ROADS WILLING ID COMPROMISE WITH
 ALLIED EMPLOyES
Hint to This Effect Given at Conference at New York Between Representa-
 tives of Two Sides

New York, June GA compromise is the between them and their 35O,O0O employees should be settled. This was hinted at todays session of the conference of rail- road and union representatives in this city when on the completion of the pre- sentation of the mems case, the railroads defined their position.
 Speaking for the railroads, Elisha Lee, chairman of the conference, said: The present schedules of pay and conditions are the lowest possible rate; your prop osition is the high level. Now between those two levels this thing is bound to be settled
 ARE AFTER A COMPROMISE
 Asked later in the day what significance they attached to Chairman Lees utter ances, MT. Stone and MT. Garrison, repre- senting the employees, declared that it was plain the railroads were striving to effect compromise. They would not discuss the possibility of the settlement of the mems demand in this manner other than to say that if a compromise offer is made it would be put to vote of the employees. In the event of the offer being voted down, MT. Garrison explained it will then be incumbent on the brother hoods to vote on a general strike.
 The railroad managers authorized a statement that in the event of a general strike they are prepared to cope with the situation. They announced that if efforts to move the United States mails and food products fail they will seek government aid.
 The brotherhoods today finished ex- plaining the details of their demands. To- morrow they will question the railroad managers on the latter's counter proposi- tion. The bone of contention, pointed out by Chairman Lee and admitted by the brotherhood leaders. is the change of basis for wage increases due to the new overtime demands, which, it is claimed by the railroads will in some cases double and triple the remunera- ton of workers who chance to perform two different classes of service during one work day.
 Mir. Lee declared that the use of the

100000 CARS MADE IN
THE FIRST % MONTHS
Dodge Brothers Establish Remarka-
bic Record for Progress in
Short Period.

Dodge Brothers recently turned out
car No. 100000, and the event was Gel
ebrated at the big plant in Detroit by
taking motion pictures of the final as
sembly of the car.
Dodge Brothers have been reticent
in making public production figures,
and with the exception of those in the
trade who were close to the situation,
hardly anyone realized that this con-
Germ had had such an astonishing
growth. Dodge Brothers produced
their first car on commercial basis
or December 4, 1914, and by reaching
100000 now in less than two years
they establish an entirely new record
in the motor car industry.
The concern is now producing on a
large scale and the 60 odd acres Of
floor space of the plant are being
added to by the construction of new
buildings.
The evidence of the great growth
of the company is further emphasized
by the fact that when the drawings
for position in the automobile shows
OF 1916 at New York and Chicago
were made recently, Dodge Brothers
were found in fourth place in the in
Gustry in volume of business. This
was an advance in one year from
eighth place to fourth place.
Car No. 100000 is going to have
quite an eventful time. 1t was ship
ped to the Henshaw Motor Co., of Bos-
ton, which had applied for the car
months ago. There will be public
reception at which many officials will
welcome the car, and it will be es-
corted about the city by the first
Dodge Brothers car received in Bos-
ton. 1t is the latter which has earned
the name of Preparedness Car" by
it's trips through New England in the
interest of proper preparedness.

HUSTON BACK
FROM ALASKA
Tells of the Wealth in Coal Copper
and Gold Mines-Fine Chance for
Both Capital and Labor.

Howard Huston, who has been in
Alaska and Washington for the past
three months, returned early in the
week and after finishing up some bus
mess, he expects to go to Chicago Uni
versity to continue his studies.
Mr.. Huston was delighted with his
trip to Alaska, which altho made pure
ly for business, proved very enjoyable.
He says the boat ride up the coast Of
Alaska affords some of the finest
scenery to be seen in the world The
waterway is smooth, being between
and most of the way.
In Alaska Mr.. Huston visited the
coal, gold and copper fields which are
being developed. There are splendid
opportunities for both capital and la
Tor in Alaska just now. The anthra-
cite coal crops from the side of the
hills and instead of having to dig
down into the bowels of the earth, the
miners dig tunnels into the hills. Rail
roads are being built so that the coal
can be shipped. The copper mines are
producing great wealth. The gold
mines are being developed, making
many rich. The surface mining is
thing of the past and while the ore is
not so rich as formerly, with modern
machinery the gold can be secured at
low cost At one place 10000 tons
of ore day goes thru the machinery,
producing $1.80 worth of gold per ton
and only 16 men are required to oper-
ate the machinery. This is making
money fast.
Mr.. Huston says the weather was
pleasant in September. He went goose
hunting up Behring river twice, the
party securing dozens of fine young
fat geese. They don't bother to shoot
ducks There is an abundance Of
game, including bear. There are var
ious kinds of berries that grow wild.
Mr.. Huston stopped in Washington
few weeks on his return and made
number of addresses. He travelled
by auto from one end of the state to
the other campaigning for Wilson. He
states that he believes Wilson will
carry the state, altho Poindexter, the
republican candidate for governor, will
probably beat Turner.

MRS. I'D. Milan GOES
TO HER final reward
Surrey Woman Claimed by Death Aft
er Long Illness From Heart
TrOuble-Buried at Surrey

Mrs. J. D. Milan passed to her eter-
1.al rest Tuesday morning at half past
four o'clock at the Milan home five and
a half miles east of Surrey, after a
long illness from heart trouble and
dropsy. The funeral was held from
the Brethren church at Surrey this
afternoon at 2 o'clock, interment be-
ing made in the Brethren cemetery at
that place. Sermons we're delivered
by Elders D. M. Shorb and D. T. DER
dorff. A large number of friends gath
cred to pay their last tribute to wo-
man who was deeply loved by the en-
tire community.
Mrs. Milan's death came very peace
fully. Although she knew for long
time that her death was but matter
Of days, she bore up with great pa
thence. At her bedside when the An
gel of death came were her husband
and five children, Hazel Ada, Edith,
Blanche and Paul, besides her aged
mother, who arrived few weeks ago
from the old home in Indiana.
Mrs. Milan was about as years of
age and had resided in the Surrey dis
trict since the early homesteading
days. She was a woman who lived I'M
selfshly that her family might have
the comforts of a pleasant home. She
was true Christian and highly thot
of by all who came in contact with her.
The bereaved members Of the family
have the sincerest sympathy of their
many friends.
Nothing was left undone that might
aid Mrs. Milan in her illness. She
spent some time in local hospital in
this city and few days before her
death, DR.. Mallarian, specialist in
heart disease, arrived from Fargo and
remained with the patient until death
came. The doctor is an old time friend
of w. S. Young and family
