Under the cover of darkness, at a.

Two British light cruisers and one de-

Eugene to Manage New
Sporting Goods House

A deal was closed today by Hauser

manufacturers in the near future.
Paul Hauser stated today that he
considered Eugene to be an ideal city

BRIBERY SAYS M'ADOO
OF DELEGATES OFFER
Secretary Refuses Promotion
for Promise of Support
at Convention

WASHINGTON, March s.--Secretary
McAdoo last night made public telegram
from State Senator James /. Green, Of
Massachusetts. relating to promotion for
Mr.. Green's brother in the Boston custom
house and his reply. The telegram from
Green to the Secretary read as follows
"As Secretary Of the Treasury you have
full power to create Immediately deputy
surveyorship Boston, just abolished, and
promote my brother; or YOU can increase
his salary to SO per day, which is per-
fectly satisfactory My conduct as dele
gate national convention will be gov
erned by treatment accorded him. Wire
my expense"
In his reply Mr.. McAdoo said
do you realize that your telegram of
9Th instant places you in very awkward
position? You practically ask me to bribe
you to govern your conduct as delegate
TO national convention by giving your
brother the position of deputy surveyor of
Boston, which has been abolished because
1t is unnecessary, or TO Increase his salary
to SO per day. Your offense is serious
one and deserves to be treated with the
contempt I accord It, I shall not prosti-
tute the public service as you propose,
and you can act as you please at the
national convention"

Uncle Sam Offers That Salary for Official Aparst
Willing to Undertake the Task of Subduing
Belligerent Bees of Arizona

Uncle Sam is having considerable
trouble to get an official bee handler. 1t
Is due probably to the fact that the
average American has a horror of being
stung.
To the man who successfully passes
the examination of wrestling with bees
Uncle Sam will give $1,000 yearly provd-
ing he will go to Arizona and work
among the Indians
Incidentally, the one who is selected
can allow himself to become known as
an official aparst, or Americas own
honey boy. Word was received from
Washington today that two Philadelphians
were being considered for the position, but
names were withheld until the final
selection has been made
On account of the prosperity rampant
in all parts of the country there was no
immense mob Clamoring for the job. In
fact, it Is said that the applicants from
all parts of the country could be counted
on ones fingers.
In announcing that the position was In
the market Uncle Sam pointed out that
all candidates would have to pass an
average of 100. In this connection it was
stated that mark of 60 would be neces-
sary for training and experience and 40
for physical ability Stress was laid upon
the physical requirements in view of the
nature of the task
The bees with which the bee handler
must contend are of the Arizona variety
They are used to living in the wilds and
fighting Indians. Therefore they are not
of the wrist-watch species, and are hap
piest when in the midst of a massacre.
They have daily revolutions for dessert
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1916-03-08

, after their normal meal of pollen and
other vicious menus. 1t is to spread
peace among these belligerent insects that
the apiarst has been chosen. The scenc
of battle will be at the Indian agency at
Pima, Ariz.
The bee handler has one consolation. He
will be allowed to take his family along
with him. No limit has been placed upon
its size, and our generous Uncle Sam only
wishes to know how many.
But the bee handlers lot is far from
sweet job despite the honeyed words
of the application blank. 1t was learned
that in past years many official apiarists
were stung beyond recognition. One
man who went on the job recently, 1t is
said, received so many wounds that the
Indians mistook him for the sphynx, or a
new god which had been thrust among
them to teach new ghost dance.
Naturally, the Indians have always
greeted bee handlers from the East with
a warm welcome. They recognize in them
a vigorous ally who will be q great hu-
man target and save them many stngs.
To make matters worse the bee expert
will not be able to wear baseball catch
er's mask or a steel helmet, for it's
usually so warm that even a veil feels like
a fur-lned overcoat.
1t will be WELL therefore, for the man
! who is chosen to bear these facts in mind
Incidentally, he might get in condition by
| punching the bag and wrestling one of the
| elephants out at the Zoo
Finally, he must be under so years old
for experience has proved that no man
over that age can put an Arizona bee
| down for the count.
