No figure of heroic size,
Towering Skyward like a god;
But just a lad who might have stepped
From any British bombing squad.
His %shrapnel helmet set atilt,
His bombing waistcoat sagging low,
HIS rifle slung across his back:
Poised in the very act to throw.
And let some craven legend tell
Wherein he put old skill to use.
And played old games with sterner zest.
Thus should he stand. reminding those

In perhaps the most daring sport Of
bulldogging-is revealed q
feat you must see to believe; a man
jumps from the back of his running
horse as he overtakes a Texas long
horn. If his judgment is good, he
seizes h ~stiletto like horns and drags
the steer to a s%tandstill. Then be-
gins a struggle worthy of a gladiator,
as the man, using the horns as levers,
bends and strains every muscle to
throw the great beast by twisting it's
neck. If he succeeds in this, the
classics of the game require him to
hold the steers upper lip in his teeth.
at the same time raising his hands for
the count of four seconds; hence the
term steer bulldogging.' This sport
is absolutely harmless in every respect
to the four-legged animal, but his two
legged competitor must use consum-
mate skill, strenth, n nerve to pro-
tect himself and conquer his an

DIR. ILLINGWORTH
GIVES VALUABLE
J. HINTS ON TREES

4 comprehensive but brief and very
interesting talk on the planting and
care OF trees in Hawaii was given
before the Outdoor Circle yesterday
afternoon by Dr. J. F. Illingworth, pro-
fessor in the College of Hawaii
The meeting, held at the home of
the circles president. Mrs. F. J. Low
rey, was attended by large number
of interested persons. DR.. Illingworth
gave many practical hints on the care
OF trees, the necessity for intelligent
planting, cultivation and pruning, and
the necessity also for intelligent use
of the larger varieties so that the
streets will not be crowded with foil
age.
The address, which contains many
valuable suggestions. will be pub
lished in full in the Star-Bulletin Sat
nrday.s IT,.
" The meeting was the last the circle
will hold this season. The next will

SALV0 OF EXPLOSIONS
+. GIVE WARNING OF FIRE

Three mysterious explosions in
quick succession were features. of a
fire at .46Sf Webb lane about Z, O'clock
last evening. = Chief Thurston said to
day that the loss was less than 500
and was covered by 5000 insurance.
The place is one-story tenement
house owned by Choy Chin and oc'
cupied by Japanese, Janoue. The
fire started in some unknown man
ner in the basement and was burning
fiercely when the fire-fighters arrived.
Attention was first called to the
fire by three loud explosions" said
Chief Thurston today, but what they
were we have been unable to- deter
mine. 1t sounded like big Chinese
firecrackers going off, but the oecu-
pants say nothing of the kind was in
the house. Captain Harold Smith of
the Palama department says he heard
the explosions distinctly"
Boy Scouts did good work at the
fire by holding back the crowd with
hastily improvised fire line made
from their tent ropes. Il
Engines from the Palama and the
central stations answered the alarm.
The fire was not serious, according
to the chief, but in bad district and
would have become so had not quick
action been taken. 49,. 49,. i u.

pushed the horse over the bank and
left him. The animal was discovered

without the permission of the owner.
Yesterday afternoon Nagata was
found and arrested. Then the horse
was shot. L..
Il liked my horse and couldn't bear
to shoot him." the Japanese explained
to Judge Monsarrat.
Pros ecutor Chillingworth admitted
clear case of cruelty but asked for
leniency from the court because the
Japanese was ignorant and was not
willingly cruel. .
The maximum sentence is 20 days
in jail and $50 fine. The Judge said
on account of the defendant having
five young children he would assess
the fine but only one day Of the sen

unless real "push" is put into
the game, the pull" will soon spend
itself in most cases. Sachs worked
himself into leadership in his spe-
cialty not by pull but by ''push,
by indomitable will, by tireless en-
ergy.
Ultimately he paid in full. He be-
came weary. He became irritable.
He became disheartened. Minor
troubles doomed large. Bigger
troubles seemed overwhelming. Sud
denly something gave way-the man

Sachs is another one Of those men

was torn away from Judaism. No

did not lose? 1t is idle to

TALMUD TORAH AND
THEATRE
THEATRE

When such forces as the A. n.
Bearman legion, the cambridge, Jr.
cohort, the Dr. Geo. J. Gordon or
ganization, and the Lee Baker ag-
gregation, combine to storm the
hearts, minds and pocketbooks of
the Minneapolis public, the result
can be readily foreseen. The bene-
fit performance given Tuesday eve
ming at the Shubert Theatre for the
Talmud Torah was in every way an
unqualified success.
The play "On Trial' is one OF
the masterpieces of the modern dra
matte art. 1t had the power of hold
ing in breathless suspense even
those of the spectators who had seen
it once before. The interesting part
of it is that the author of the drama
is young Jew, Elmer E. Reizen
stein-a most striking coincidence
on this occasion.
Lee Baker and Edith Evelyn are
old time favorites Of the Minneapo
lis theatre going public, and quite
deservedly SO. Lee Bakers art is
Of fine quality, genuine, 11naffect-
ed natural and sincere, yet of great
power to move, stir and uplift. In
this particular play every member
of the cast did fine work, and all
are worthy of the highest praise.
Such was the entertainment pro-
vided. Back of it stood the host of
the Talmud Torah hustlers, whose
business it was to see to it that the
house should be sold out. And it
was. Nay, people were actually
turned away, more than two hun
dred OF them. The Jewish people
Of Minneapolis were thus induced
to see splendid theatrical perform
ance, and to help the cause OF the
Talmud Torah at the same time
That the financial benefit to the in
stitution from the proceeds of the
evenings entertainment is as large
as it is, is due in large measure to
the very generous terms given to
the directors of the Talmud Torah

Skiing on the Water.

This ski is recommended as both
a life-saving device and a pleasure
craft, combining safety with novelty
It cannot sink; makes better speed
than a swimmer, and does not tire the
rider as swimming does. It is more
practicable for long distances, and can
go through water where there is a
heavy undertow, as it sets SO high in
the water that it is not caught in the
grip of the undercurrent as the legs
of the swimmer are. It doesn't take a
long time to master, as the surfboard
does; requires no skill in balancing
and sticking on, and has the great ad-
vantage of being equipped with a mo-
tive power, whereas the ordinary surf
board must be pushed and padded out
to sea before it can be ridden in
