BUILDING Cabinet TO
BRING ABOUT UNITY
BY william G. Shepherd,

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Petrograd, May 49, Russia was
building cabinet today through which
the duma government hoped to patch
up its differences with the council of
workmen IS and soldiers delegates.
Complete coalition with the latter
was rejected because the council laid
down terms which the duma leaders
thought excessive, in that they amount
ed to the requirement that Russia an
nounced renunciation of her previous
ly stated foreign policy.
Resignation of Paul N. Miliukoff
gave opportunity for appointment in
his place as minister of foreign af-
fairs, of M. Tereschenko, a youthful
radical socialist, believed likely to
command full support of the workmen
and soldiers.
To the post of minister of war, sue
ceeding Gutchloff, resigned, the duma
named A. f. Kerenskv, now minister
of justice and one of the duma leaders
who has always commanded full SYM
pathy of the soldiers and worltInen.
Miliukoff, it was learned today, is to
be offered the post Of minister Of edu-
cation.
His resignation, it was announced
officially, was due to difference in
views with his fellow cabinet mem
bers over the question of reorganiza-
ton.
The duma governments announced
purpose in shifting and re-arranging
the cabinet is to crystalize Russia $
foreign policy.

TIGERS ARE'PITCHINC 4
BUT ARE NOT HITTING
Old Smashing Attacks moi
Visible and Consequence
Is Seen In the Score
By Il. G. Hamilton.

/ United Press staff Correspondent.)
New York. May l7.-Hughie Jcn-
nings, leader of the Tigers is credited
with having once declared that if he
had good pitching the American league
race would be Tiger winning streak.
/ That was some wears ago. Today
Jennings is confronted with the sad
truth that he is getting good pitching
and-no hitting. The old Tiger wreck
ing crew is not wreel;ing, while the
Tiger pitchers are turning in games
/ that compare fairly well in the num-
\ Der of hits allowed with any hurlers in
the league. Ty Cobb has not opened
the season with any tremendous force
of hitting and Veaeh, Heilman and
Burns have slumpei with him. The old
smashing attack is failing to drive the
runs across. As consequence the
games are not being won.
Since the start of this season the
! Detroit pitchers have permitted slight
4 ly more than seven bingles to each
contest, while the Boston Red Sox,
leaders Of the league by q good margin,
/ possesses hurlers who are very little
more effective, The Boston mounds
men have permitted within fraction
Of seven hits a game.
On the clubbing side of the ledger
the figures show the Red Sox are out
hitting the Tigers for the season by
approximately eight points.
There is the reason for the Tiger
smash. That is why they are not figur-
ing in the early season dash for first
place A return to form by the Jen-
nings sluggers with his PITCHERS con
tinuing in form would mean hard luck
for the opposition.

Buys Goods for Less
The merchant who does the biggest
business buys the most goods, and it
is the man who buys the most goods
who gets goods the cheapest. Here,
again, advertising helps the public.
The iobber or manufacturer, shipping
in bigger quantities to the bigger buy.

being at smaller expense in various
ways, is glad to sell for less to the
business man who buys in big quanti-
ties.
Non-Advertisers Would Win Out
Advertising men know, of course,
that if advertising were not a public
benefit, the advertising store could not
long survive, for non-advertising stores
would soon rise on the busy corners Of
our great cities and drive the great adj

CARBURY SCHOOLS.

Walter Gorder and Paul Henning,
members of the intermediate grades,
have been unable to attend school for
the past few days on account of sick
ness. The much in evidence condi-
ton of the weather has no doubt af-
fected other pupils in the county as
we'll.
While checking and averaging our
school attendance last week, it was
found that our schools had a regu-
lar attendance of some over ninety
five per cent. This shows for one
thing that the parents have given con-
siderable attention and consideration
to the welfare of our schools, inso-
far as they have encouraged regular
and punctual attendance IN the part
of their children. Irregular attend
ance is a bad habit and if practiced,
fosters a spirit of disregard and indif-
ference to school work. When par
ents and teachers combine in the edu-
cation of children and work together
for their advancement, the children
will unquestionably experience the
effect Of such a combination. Much
greater and more rapid progress will
be made in their studies and eventu-
ally they will become sufficiently edu-
Gated so that they will give credit to
both parents and teachers.
Miss Olga Setter was presented the

from obscurity to do regular duty.
With two men in training and eager
for the fray, such stratagems would
not be necessary.
No early exhibition games are on
the SOx schedule and the veteran
pitchers will be given their own time
rounding to condition. Practice
games will be the order between the
two squads Of regulars and yanni-
gans, and there is not the intense ri
Valry in these cOmbats as crops out
when high-class minors are pitted
against the big leagUers.
Scott, Benz, Russell, Williams and
Faber are getting the major portion
of attention. From this quintet will
be picked the regular pitchers, with
Eddie Cicotte an added starter. There
are many good rockies in camp, but
they have a difficult front to break
through. It would not be surprising
if no new pitching people were added
to the team this spring.
Some good prospects may be de-
Veloped and farmed out for further
culture, but the 1916 hurting outfit
is plenty good enough to go through
the American league.
Mr.. MitchelI's Cubs continue to
burn their way through the Pacific
Coast league clubs, but some Of the
going is rough. Teams out that way
are well advanced in their training,
and are fully as capable as the big
fellows. The pitchers are we'll along
and are putting the same curves on
the ball the majors see along in May.
This is excellent practice, but too
many exhibition games may cause
staleness along in the middle of their
campaign toward the flag. That is
the history of the past White Sox
clubs and the lesson has been learned
on the South Side. Whether the
theory will work out in practice on
the North Side is something that
must await development.

ROWLAND TO HAVE STRONG
INFIELD-GANDIL ON DECK
BY Mark Shields


Temporarily the White Sox infieId
is made up of Eddie Collins, Buck
Weaver and Swede Risberg, with Ted
Jourdan working at first base. The
latter position will be taken by Chick
GandI as soon as the former Cleve-
land man has had few days Of pTac-
tice.
GandiI arrived at Mineral Wells
yesterday and Immediately exploded
stories he was displeased with his
new berth. He beamed satisfaction
and there was no indication salary
differences would cut any figure. Of
course, Chick declared his game leg
was perfectly fit and he promises to
prove it as soon as he hits the ball
field.
Stationing Risberg at short this
early in the proceedings is an omin-
GUS sign to Zeb Terry and, Fred Nc
Mullin. It makes it appear that
neither will be regular at the start
of the season if Mr.. Risberg lives up
to his advance notices.
If Risberg is capable of holding
down a regular position the White
SOx will have the most powerful in
field combination in the American
league. Not only will the regular
quartet be of championship caliber,
but in Terry and McMUIlin Rowland
will have a pair of relief men who
would be regulars with another team.
. That means in the event of injury
that the class of the outfit will not be
lowered a particle, and an even pace
can be maintained throughout the
season. In the event of a slump by
either Weaver or Risberg one of the
bench warmers could be showed into
the fray, fresh and eager, and the
club would rattle along.
Last season at one period the in
field was shot up by injuries and a
hunt was instituted for infelders,

THE TROOP WITHDRAWAL.

Inasnuch as Carranza says fatty he will
not ratify the protocol unless American
troops are withdrawn from Mexico, and
inasmuch as those troops are making no
attempt whatever to get Villa dead or
alive" the logic of the New York Press
that Pershings expeditionar-y force should
be withdrawn, may be correct.
The arrest of the Carranza consul in New
York for smuggling arms, almost on the
same day that announcement was made
that an American ambassador is to be sent
to Mexico, illustrates the relations between
the two countries-the United States en-
during insult in order to do right, Carranza
breaking the law and availing himself of
the weakling's license.
From all appearances the administration
IS sounding the country on the question OF
withdrawal. Let the troops be withdrawn
by all means, unless determined effort is
made to accomplish the mission on which
they were sent. 1t will be one time when
our neutrality will not be accused by both
sides of leaning the other way, for both
Carranza and Villa say they can destroy
the other if the American troops are re
moved, and the victor, whoever he is, will
be beholden to the United States.
