.ATHLETICSAR
ALL SUSPENDED
Coaches Are Out of Jobs
and Athletes Join
the Army.

New York, May 2S.-The admins
/ trative stats in most Of the college
athletic offices have already felt the
( pinch of war times. Employees who
: have been kept at work L months
I in the year while sports have been
going their usual way have been let
I go because Of lack Of work. But If
all the expense of clerk hire were
I eliminated the ceaseless drain on
athletic resources would still be a
cause OF worry.
With athletics entirely suspended.
the intake is now absolutely zero.
Unfortunately. suspension of athlet-
les does not mean a similar suspen-
sion Of athletic expense. II is the
overhead charges on the huge col
lege athletic plants Of the country
and the minimum of administrative
expense that viii dig deeply into the
funds during the whole period of in
activity and cause substantial de-
ficit on the sport ledger by the time
the athletes quit working for Uncle
sam and 90 back TO the old stand to
fight for the alma mater.
Yale. Harvard. Princeton, Cornell,
Pennsylvania and the big u1iversi-
ties and colleges that maintain eX-
tensive athletic plants and equipment
are the ones that viii be hardest hit
It is true that they will also be the
ones to come back into the money
making class the most quickly when
college sports are resumed, but IL viii
take some years for these institutions
to break even on the account books
While war is being waged, the
bowls and stadiums Will be unfre-
cuented by athletes. Soldiers may
drill where once the heroes played,
but there viii be no box office tolls
for spectators who come TO watch
the men in khaki. Meanwhile inter
est charges and upkeep expenses viii
be rolling around with a perfect
regularity that viii not be affected
by VAT.

WEILMAN Loss
FELT SEVERELY
Crack Pitcher of Browns
Out of Game With
Sore Back.

The loss Of Carl weilman, one Of
the best southpaw in baseball. was
a hard blow for Fielder Jones and
the St Louis Browns.
Weilman was forced to quit pitch
ing because OF an ailing kidney, and
though he stuck until the middle Of
May in hopes that he might over
come his illness, he was finally
forced to turn in his uniform and go
to his nome for an operation
WeiIman tried to DO his share on
the mound for the Brownies this
spring and worked in a few games,
but owing to his Illness was not
highly effective. Last year he ranked
tenth among fhe pitchers of the
American league in effectiveness,
working in sc games Of ball for
Fielder Jones. We won IS games for
the Browns and is credited with los
ing a like number, though many of
the games he lost went against him
by narrow margins

WARS CRUELTIES.

According to reports the European war has reached out and touched every conceivable ln- dustry with an influence for good or ev1l but evidently with more evil than good. Legitimate calings have all felt this influence, more or less. It is interesting to note that some of the other sort of activities are being affected.
 Take the case of the counterfeiter arrested in Paris recently and sentenced to several years penal servitude for making base coin. He lays his downfall to the war. For years this man was counterfeiter on a small scale. He knew that his likes were always caught, because they tried to do too much. So he made it rule to manufacture no more than about four dollars a day He never allowed ambition to tempt hlm to a greater output and with this amount he lived comfortably. Then came the war which soon increased the price of metal used in the manufacture of the coins. This left him very little profit Food went up and every necessary of life and in order to be able to exist this modest counterfeiter was forced to double his output That did the business. It soon led to suspicion and he was arrested convicted and given the above metioned sentence.
 Reflecting over this particular case, we wonder if "Hi" Gill, Mayor of the Spirit City, also the if "Hi Gill; Mayor of the Spirit City also the reformed reformer canot lay his downfall to the war.
 Ever since the state of Washington was unwil- lingly put on the water wagon, Gill has been waving the flag of reform, has written here and there telling about the benefit derived from the reform wave; yet-apparently at least, he was busy making money illegitimatey His re- form was evidently counterfeit and his ambition led him to over-reach the mark of decency and he was caught. Let us wait and see the re- suit.

beneficial to us Be that as it may, it IS evident from these letters that If the legislators are not kept busy during the entire session 1t shall not be due to the lack of work, at least lack of sug- gestion to work.
 Among the various laws suggested, one m particular is worthy of notice. The writer sug- gests the repeal of the act giving women equal suffrage He says in part: "f we don't stop them they will soon have us wearing pettlcoats or straight jackets at the Morningside Asylum.
 Our only advice to this writer is to keep cool and not allow that to worry him; but to take time as it comes. If the women see fit to change our customs they have the power and we say "let them go to it." After they have accomplished their desire, if conditions do not suit us, we can migrate to the North Pole and start life anew but while we are here, we must be good and there you are.

Sidney e. Edwards, assistant signal

with headquates at Winnemucca, was
accidentally killed Friday evening
near Battle Mountain. From what can
be learned of the accident Edwards
boarded an extra freight train to go
out and inspect the first signal east of
the station, which he had repaired
during the day. and asked the train
crew to slow down so he could get
off. II is presumed that when he
jumped his trousers leg or some other
part OF his clothing caught on some
thing, throwing him under the train.
When picked up it was found that his
head was badly crushed and death
was probably instantaneous. At the
coroner's inquest held at Battle Noun,
tain Saturday the findings of the jury
was that deceased was accidentally
killed by train"
