strongest organization in the major
leagues. The worlds series is being
played this week, and including to-
days game, the American leaguers
have won three contests, to one for
the Brooklyn Nationals. Unless the
dope pot is upset, the series should
end Thursday, giving the Boston team
the title again, in four games out of
five played. In many respects this
series is the most sensational ever
played for a worlds title.

STORE BEING BUILT

Clearwater, Dec. 30.--The build
ing which S. s. Coachman Is erecting
at the corner Of Cleveland street and
Fort Harrison avenue is being rushed
to completion as rapidly as possible.
The solid character of the work
which is going into the structure
has necessarily made the work seem
slow, but it is Mr.. Coachman's de-
sire to have the building as substan-
tial as possible as it is to be four
stories in height. The most of the
heavy foundation work has been
completed, and from this time on the
building will seem to grow more
rapidly. 1t will be completed early
in February, and will be occupied by
A. J. Moore's Cut Price Store on the
ground floor, while the second floor
will probably be made into modern
apartments. The two upper floors
will contain offices and probably q
lodge hall.

REORGANIZING PHILIPPINE
GOVERNMENT ON MORE
INDEPENDENT LINES
(By Associated Press. }

Manila, P. l., Dec. 80. 1.-The work
of the first Philippine Congress is
largely concerning itself with re-
organization of the government
along more independent lines.
Heretofore all legislative measures
in the Philippines have begun with
the words "By authority of the Con-
gress of the United States, be it en-
acted by the Philippine legislature. 3"
One Of the first measures passed by
the new insular congress was a
change to read, "The Senate and
House OF representatives in Con-
gress assembled, decrees,'' etc.,
meaning, of course, that the Filipino
Congress is now acting on its own
authority.
A bill for the organization of six
departments has passed both Houses
,of Congress. The departments are
those of public instruction, interior,
finance, justice, agriculture and nat
ural resources, and commerce and
communications. The department of
public instruction is to be headed by
Ian appointee by the President of the
UNITED States who will be vice-gov-
ernor of the Philippines, and the in
sular congress will have no voice in
his naming, but the other depart
ments may be headed by local ap-
pointees who will probably be select
ed from the Filipino Congress. The
bill provides that the bureau of civil
service shall be under the direct con-
troll of the governor-general, meas
ure designed to keep the bureau from
the contamination of politics.
The new department heads will
comprise the cabinet of the COVER
lnor-general and be responsible to
him. but their presence may be re-
lquired by either House of Congress
which, in this way, hopes to Keep
final control Of their actions in Its
own hands
The Congress is endeavoring u
avoid "filibusters" and the Senate
has adopted rule that no membei

NATIVE TROOPS NOT AS HARDY
AS THE MEN FROM CITIES
(By Associated Press. }

Near Verdun, Dec. 30.-Native
troops from the French colonies are
not so hardy as white soldiers from
the cities and villages of France, ac-
cording to the chief surgeon of the
great field hospital here. He said:
"The opinion has been very gen.
orally prevalent throughout the
world that the semi-ciailized races
are harder than the civilized white
races. This idea, however, has been
proved fallacious. l myself, since
the beginning of the war, have treat
ed some thousands Of wounded men
and have found in general that the
white race can support pain without
complaint better than any colored
race. We have had here cases Of all
kinds and / have been able to prove
that not only our peasants, wno
form such large part of our army
but the inhabitants of our big cities
are as naturally healthy and amen
able to surgical and medical treat
ment as the men of any race whicr
lives under primitive conditions. op
seryation of the effects Of contac'
with dirt upon wounds proves tha'
natives suffer from gangrene, peri
,tonitis and blood-poisoning just a
much as white men. At the sam
thine. their complaints when the

those of white men.

APPROVE WORK
ON ST. PETERBURG'S
GOVERNMENT BUILDING

st. Petersburg, Dec. 80. Super
,intendent Perry, of the office of the
supervising architect, Washington,
d. c., with headquarters in Atlanta,
Ca, recently visited st. Petersburg
and made an inspection of the work
on the new postoffice building now
under construction under the SUPER
vision of Superintendent of Con-
struction Edw. w. Roberts.
Mr.. Perry was greatly pleased
with the class of work that the con-
tractor, M. l.. Holiday, Of Green's
boro, N. c., is doing, and particu-
llarly the ornamental architectural
terra Gotta and the marble columns.
Only in the last few years have
American manufacturers been able
to produce polychrome terra Gotta,
and the terra Gotta used on the
building is the best that has been so
produced. The detail of the orna-
lmentations has been exceedingly
well sculptured, and fortunately
none of this detail has been lost or
reduced by the usual firing of the
terra Gotta
Mr.. Perry stated that st. Peters
burg should certainly be proud to
lhave a federal building of this char
acter, desi gned especially for a semi
tropical country, and convenient OF
access. Especial note was made of
the office system originated and used
by Supt. Roberts, of daily reports on
the progress, construction and Of
fee business in connection with the
construction 6 the building.

(By Associated Press
London, Dec. 30.-One of the eff
fects of the enforcement by the Unit
ed States of more stringent passport
regulations, is that there are no fur
ther extradition cases of Americans
from England.
During many years before the war
there were substantial l number of
such cases, 80 many that dealing
with them constituted an important
division Of the work of officials at
the embassy. So well have the new
regulations governing the issuing OF
passports served the cause Of justice
that during the current year there
has not been a single case of an
American criminal or suspect being
arraigned at Bow street police court
for extradition.
