BISMARCK. WINS FIRST CAME
FROM BEACH At TOURNAMENT

Smith did not reply, but his teacher
said he was confident that at least 80
of his pupils could beat either Will
lard or Johnson.
Smith graduated only this year from
the Jiu-Jutso, or Guido" school, after
nine years of study and many hard
knocks. Below the black belt class
there are the wearers of the white
belt and those of the brown belt. The
judo fraternity keep a sharp watch
on the conduct of its members and
any wrestler who is guilty of prac-
tees not in accordance with the spirit
of "bushido" is not allowed to grad
uate.
Among Americans and Europeans
said Mr.. Smith, in discussing the
sport, ian idea prevails that jiu-jitsu
is simply lot of holds that would
be debarred in q wrestling match,
and is consequently inferior to the
catch-as-catch can style. This is all
wrong. This idea might be applica-

New York, Feb. 25.-Jerome l.

United States, expects to make but
one appearance in golf tournament
this season This will be in the ANA
teur championship to be played in

ment would mean at least week

With Travers thus prevented from
taking part in the open champion

ton upon Charles (Chick) Evans, Jr.,
or Francis Quimet, if the player is
then still in the amateur ranks.

With the score at the end of the
first half, Bismarck 3, Beach Z, the
capital city team turned the trick on
the team from the western part of
the state, at the Dickinson tourna-
ment last night, and the final register
was, Bismarck %, Beach IL. "
Humphreys was the big contribut-
ing factor for the Bismarck Quint in
corraling the big end of the scores in
the second half. He made four field
baskets in the final period, more than
enough to win the game, and was cas-
lily the star performer The capital
city boys piled up 20 points in the
last half, while the Beach team only
succeeded in netting four foul throws.
Humphreys and eastman held the
Beach forwards SO close after the

the tournament championship. This

war and other unusual and unsettled
conditions the expenses of the com.
mission were far above normal. The
books show that during 1914 the dis
bursements Of the commission
amounted to $6S,17S.0S, leaving bal
ance Of $1,4S6.07 with which to start
1915.
These expenses, which were rough
ly three times larger than in 1911,
cover a large field of activity, such
as Nick Young never dreamed of and
were due to the growth of the game
and the conflict that waged for it's
control. The National commission
paid $26,21712 for salaries and $14,.
24S.39 for legal fees alone in 1914
Advertising and the expenses of mem.
bers of the commission cost 1921
and s3,542.06, respectively. Station.
cry, printing and typewriting amount
ed to $2,139.93. The charge for. tele.
phone and telegraph service ran up
to $1,092.02. Office rent was s1,2S4,
and postage $425, as against $17.25
for the National league in 1875. These
figures testify mutely to the devel-
opment of Americas national sport
That the Occidental athlete, who
will devote the necessary time and
attention to training, can hold his
own in any form of sport the world
around has again been demonstrated.
Allan Smith, a Scotchman, employed
by an American company in Japan
has recently been awarded the famous
BLACK Belt given for proficiency in
jiu-jitsu. In order to win this distinct
i've honor in the Japanese art of self
defense it is necessary to secure ten
thousand falls. Up to a few days ago
only three foreigners had won the
BLACK Belt" although hundreds, had
tried and failed after long sessions
of training and competition.
As a means of self-defense, Smith
asserts that jiu-jitsu is far superior
to wrestling or sparring. He says
ga master OF jiu-jitsu could have de-
feated Jack Johnson in his prime.
MY friend here indicating his in
'structor, would have had no trouble
in defeating Johnson"
Or Jess Willard" asked a visitor.

HOLDER Of TOUCH LUCK RECORD IS.
RELEASED By WHITE S0X OWNER

I'D to his former standard, for he
seemed to lack the nerve that made
a great playerof him while with Prov
idence. Then he hurt his knee and
was out of the game for year. He
was as game as they made them, but
he could not seem to overcome the
bad luck that was following him. He
was sent to the Milwaukee clug and
then came back with all of his old
time cunning. He played a star game
for the Brewers and was more respon-
sible than any other man on the team
for the winning of the pennant.
Blackburne was recalled again last
year from the Milwaukee club and
spent the whole season in the SoX
camp. He was one of the most pop
ular men on the list at all times. The
manager never had to ask him to do
anything twice, for he was on his
toes, but somehow or another his
skill left him again when he got back
to the big circuit. He was sent to
short to fill in while Weaver was out
of the game and could not get the
old winning tricks that he had while
with the Brewers. He was shifted to
third base at the close of the season
in hopes that he would be able to
come through there, but he was not
as much Of a success as he was ex-
pected to be there. His hitting was
light and that held him back more
than anything else.
This year when Manager Rowland
was forced to cut down his list he
thought of keeping Lena as utility
fielder again, and sent him con-
tract, but the figure in it was some
what less than the old contract call.
ed for Lena sent the contract back
and asked to have some of the cut
returned to him, but there was moth
ing doing and he was released.

Release of Russell Blackburne
Marks Passing of White sox
Famous Infield.

Chicago, Feb. 25.-The release Of
Russell Blackburne by the White Sox
means the passing OF the famous in
fielder from baseball. Lena will not
report 70 Toronto, according to re-
port received by his friends here.
The decision is not sudden one on
the part of Blackburne, for he has
been thinking for some time OF quit
ting the game and going into bust
ness. He has been offered lucrative
position by rich uncle who has been
after him for some time to learn his
business, but love of the national pas
time has kept Russell in it.
Just before the announcement OF
his release by the South Side club,
last week, he had written some Of
his friends saying that he was being
urged so strongly to accept the bust
ness offer that he was doubtful about
being back the coming summer.
lBlackburne holds the record for
tough luck in the American league.
A star of the first magnitude in the
minor league, Lena lost his reputa-
ton when he stepped into the big
league. He was a wonder as mem
Der of the Providence team under
Hughie Duffy, back in 1909. Every
thing that he tried to do while a
member of the Providence team was
easy for him. He was one of the
most talked of players of that sea-
son in the minor leagues, and when
the White Sox paid big money for him
that fall he was regarded as in a
class by himself.
The next year, when he came to
the South Siders, he didn't measure

tract with all his players, with one
exception. Mr.. Flack, outfielder, who

er STACEY of the game is brought to

Martin Delaney, coach of the Chi
cago Athletic association track team
and referee of the Illinois-Notre
Dame meet Feb 10, is quoted as say
ing the mark made by Waldo Ames
of Illinois in the forty yard hurdles
will stand as worlds record. Ames
covered the sticks and the distance

fifth of second the worlds record
made by Forest Smithson in 1907 on

New York, Feb. pa number of
interesting references were made to
the early days of professional baseball
at the recent Anniversary Dinner"
of the National league in New York
City. None attracted greater atten-
ton than the reading of the finances
of the senior organization for it's IN
itial year.
The report showed that the receipts
of the league amounted to $S21.82.
Each of the eight clubs forming the
association contributed one hundred
dollars and sporting goods firm the
remainder.
The expenses of the league for the
year 1875 was $475.5O, leaving bal
ance of $346.32 The chief item Of
expense was the salary of $500 paid
to Nick Young, who served as Sec
rotary and treasurer, during the first
year of the leagues existence Post
age accounted for S17.25, with stamps
costing 3 cents each in those days.
Stationery amounted to $20.45; score
sheets $685., record book $3.50, and
! a postoffice box $4.75. There were
! few stray items for kilograms, pins
| and other Office appurtenances, but
| no mention of rent.
As opposed to this statement the
financial report of the National Base
ball commission for 1914 gives an ex-
cellent idea Of the growth of the bust
| ness end of the game. The National
league in 1875 was the dominating
factor in baseball just as the Ma
tional commission is the supreme
court of the game today. At the end
of 1913 the National commission had
balance OF 327,7O9.03. The receipts
from all sources during 1914 amount

The purchase by the directors of
the Sioux City speedway of two-rac-
ing machines brings the number of
speedway-owned automobiles up to
twelve, and guarantees the entry Of
ten OF these in events on each Of the
tracks affiliated with the Speedways
Association of America. Of the
twelve, the indianapolis owns eight,
four of which are to be campaigned
by Rickenbacher under an agreement
with their maker that not more than
two will compete in any one race.

ing cars is to insure good fields,
threatened with depletion by the en-
barge on automobiles in European
countries involved in the war, as well
as by the refusal of some American
manufacturers to carry on the sport

THE INCOME TAX.

Now that the constitutionality of the federal income tax has been af-
 frmed by the United States Supreme
 Court there remains the pleasant duty of fixing a fair and just method by which the tax shall be imposed. learned that with proper handling the tax can be made reap @ national revenue of more than $100,000,000 over and above the present amount collected. That in itself Is encdurag- ing. Many bills have already been introduced in Congress which will de- mand a tax of more than fifty per cent. on all incomes over the million dollar mark. The idea of getting down lower in the scale also has been suggested that is, taxing the in comes from labor, trade, investment and the various professions. Natu- rally, a graduating scale should pc applied. The Supreme Court in it's ruling has decided that authority to impose a tax upon incomes IS not eA- ceeded when a discrimination is made as to rates It is but fair and just to make all incomes above the mll- lion dollar line yield a greater per
 centage of revenue than those that come under five thousand dollars.
 The big fortunes can stand the heavy
 tax,-the smaller ones should be let
 off much easier.

King Cotton May Take
 His Throne From SOufh

Washington, D. C., Jan.% 26.--"Cot- ton, the staple of primier war renown and of blockade notoriety was the foundation and backbone of the pros- perity that English administration has been able to bring to Egypt in recent years," begins a bulletin just prepared by the National Geographic society. Tn lower Egypt and in the Soudan, the English believe that they have dis covered the nicst favorable cotton growing county on, earth; and en- thusiastic plahfters. of Egypt have pro- claimed the cottontof the Nile delta as the finest in the wbrad. At least, they have statistics on their side to prove that thesper- acr reS pfeduction of the fertile delta fields can be made the greatest among < all cotton growing countries.
 Cotton and Cromer' made the re- generation of Egypt possible, is the way Englishmen emphasized the inn portance of Egyptian cotton, by link ing it with the name of their fore most colonial statesman. This Atrl- can crop is of still greater importance today to the people who have fostered it's culture. In short it is the prize that goes with Egypt's possession. IT, rigation works developed by English engineers made large-scale cotton paintings possible; cotton crops set Egyptian labor free; put wages into the hands of the poverty peasants; and transformed serfs on great estates into small proprietors It attracted attention and capital to the land of the Pharaochs and Name lukes, and encouraged a temper in the people willing for administrative re- forms.
 Egypt is essentially an agricultural country, with it's great river, the Nile a magnificent, costless fertilizatlo on plant, and the clear, sun-flooded sky a forcing bell. Where water reaches Egypt's soil, crcps smile forth in pro- fusion, and cotton neighboring the mills of Austria, Italy, Great Britain France and Germany, took rank over all other products of the fields.
 ''F'rom 1904 to 1904, the cotton cror of Egypt doubled in quantity ano value The financial crisis of 19Oi struck the country still harder blow than it did the countries of Europe
