 The United States always looks with favor upon a movement for the exten sion of republicanism and has been eager to be among the first to welcome into the family of nations new govern ments known to be founded upon the Will of the people The Russian move ment consequently has been received with deep sympathy here, where the quality of the present leaders is well known and highly esteemed
 As yet no official action has been taken because It is not felt certain that the revolutionary elements set in motion have entirely quieted down into stable government With each day that passes. however, the conviction increases that re- publican or constitutional Russia has come to stay.
 Those who favor immediate acceptance of the new regime at Petrograd point to the possibility that the United States soon may be cooperating with the al- lies, at least to the extent of combat ing Germany's submarine warfare

Ambassador Francis at Petrograd, sum- marized the situation today in the fol- lowing cablegram:
 The last week ha seen the most astonishing revolution. Two hundred million people who have lived under ab- solute monarchy for 1000 years, and who are now engaged in the greatest war in history, have forced their Emperor to abdicate for himself and his son and in duced the brother to whom he transferred Imperial authority to accept on condition that constitutional assembly the people so wish and who will exercise power under authority of government framed by that assembly.
 No opposition to provisional govern ment which is council of ministers ap- pointed by committee of 12 named by Duma. Absolute quiet here and through out all Russia. Rodzianky and Muiukoff assure me whole army and navy in sup port. Everything learned from unofficial sources confirms.
 Plan of provisional government is to call constituent assembly or convention whose members be elected by whole peo- ple and who be empowered to organize good government. Whether republic or

Cuban police have continued their duties as usual, courts have continued fur ctioning and American naval officers have been punctlious in all their dealings with Cuban officials not to appear to be exceeding their authority.

 Dandruff kills the hair roots. To stop 1t use Pompeian HAIR Mas sage. It IS a clear amber fluid, not oily, not sticky, and has . very pleasant disappearing odor Simply massage it into the scalp two or three times a week.

mitted to row In the Union Boat Clubs

which were victorious In the New Eng
land regatta at Boston last Monday.
DR.. wilmington undoubtedly became a
professional when he coached the Wis

professional athlete he should have been
barred from amateur rowing races.
Any plea that DR.. wilmington was paid
az member of the Wisconsin faculty
and did his coaching only as gratui-
tous side duty Is nonsensical The New
England officials undoubtedly will have
to explain to the National Association
OF Amateur Oarsmen.

The New York Athletic Club last night
issued entry blanks for It's fall games
to be held on September 22. Half of the
programme is composed of events for
enlisted men. Incidentally the soldiers
and sailors who may want to compete
are asked to Join the Amateur Athletic
Union at 25 cents per "Join." That's a
mixture of business and patriotism that
We cannot untangle.
The wretchcd response Of ST Louis to
the splendid three day programme at the
national track and field championships
settled that city's chances as far as any
future features Of the Amateur Athletic
Union are concerned. We learned last
night that the official report Of the re-
ceipts for the three days places the total
at $1,000. This munifcent sum no doub,
breaks all parsimony records Of the

FROM 1908 thr ough last season Dobie

During his regime Washington won ~

opposition was held scoreless. Dobie
was player at Minnesota
Taclturn to an unusual degree, pessi-
mistic to extremes, a relentless driver
on the field and a caustic talker off the
gridiron, Dobie presents an extraordi-
nary figure as coach. Star and sub

peal strongly to the well wishers Of the
