Marine corps enlistments took the
lead over the other two branches OF
the military service this morning, to-
tai of six being recruited and sent to
the Minneapolis depot.
Clarence oscar Rustad, OF Werner, N.
d. applied at the navy recruiting sta;
ton Tuesday for enlistment, but the
ofFicer learned that he had failed to
comply with the select service act
aRustad gave as his excuse that he
was in Fargo on registration day,
coming here for the purpose of joining
the coiors and that when he returned
to Werner, the village clerk would not
register him as he thought it was not
necessary because he had enlisted.
Rustad, however, did not enlist until
this week. An enlistment does not
exempt one from registration, until the
recruit is sworn in at the Minneapolis
office.
Orders were received at the navy re-
cruitinR station this morning from the
bureau eof navigation to discontinue
all enlistments of landsmen for yeo-
mem. This might curtail the number
OF enlistments for June from this
branch OF military service In that most
Of the recruits were enlisting for posi-
tfpns as clerks, stenographers and ac-
countants In the storekeepers depart

ENGLISH WOMEN LIKELY
TO Be ENFRANCHISED
House Of Commons Passes Suffrage
Clause Of Reform Bill.
(Bv Associated Press.l

London, June 20.-The house OF
commons last night by a large majority
passed the final reading of the clause
in the electoral reform bill dealing
with the question of womens suf-
frage. It 10 expected that a proposal
now will be made that the franchise
be conferred on women on the same
basis az men.
The majority by which the house OF
commons reaffirmed its adhesion to the
principle OF woman suffrage astonished
the warmest supporters Of the meas
ure. This was partly due to the lack Of
interest shown at times in long drawn
out debate. Members evidently felt
that the subject long ago had been
exhausted.
So assured were the supporters Of
the measure Of the outcome that even
the magnitude of the majority in it's
favor did not move them to any uIl-
usual demonstration when the figures
were announced.
The decisive division is expected to-
day in the adoption of a proposal for
the erfranchisement Of women of 80
years and upward as part of the cleo
toral reform bill.

From messenger boy to the greatest

year history OF Johnny McTaggart, rid

many believed to he the greatest jockey
since the palmy days OF Tod Sloan.
Hard work, clean living and under

for riding to fame.
Since he first took off his A. -. T..

his horses, has worked, slept and lived
with them aud has kept away from the

That's all bunk. It's knowing how tc

will win, but good jockey will often

johnny makes this statement good by
winning now and then with outsiders.
Johnny's ambition to become jockey

ANGE OF BATTING

} has made Walter Holke, the

When Holke first donned New
York Uniform at the Marlin train
ing camp he was regarded as a
ball player doomed to spend his
life In the bushes. But now
Holke couldn't be bought.
The reason Is that Holke

first he batted righthanded. and
\ now he bats from the fork side
! OF the plate. The result Is that
i he is a 800 hitter.
