 FAME $ DOOR

NEW YORK, Aug. IA. -- Since the best days of the Chicago Cubs, the famous old Pirates, and the Tigers, who won an American league cham pionschip, the west hasn't held such prominent place in baseball as it now Is hanging to. The pep and dash of the Cardinals and Reds and fhe possibilities in the appointment of Fred Mitchell as manager of the Cubs, are thrilling the westerners. Indica- tions are now that even if they don't attain the top of the peak this year, the Reds and Cardinals are going to be hard to head next year. If the Reds or Cardinals should win pennant Oh, Boy! what life it would be in St Louis or Cincinnati.
 Chicago won it's last National league pennant in 1910, and Detroit was the last western club to represent the Am erican league in worlds series strug- gle. It has been seven years since the west horned into the fall baseball season.
 | In case Chicago wins the American league pennant this year, as is being | variously predicted. and in case the Giants live up to their supporters claims, 1t will be the first time that teams from the nations two largest cities have done conflict on the dia mond in worlds series. With the natural rivalry existing between the huge population centers, worlds ser ies scattered between the shoras oi Lake Michigan and the Atlantic oceaI should be a humdinger, with all the trimmings.

|S PAID TO BISHOP
 CR|MONT

1 The Daily Times is in receipt of a
 recent copy of the Northwest Catho-
 lie Progress, published at Seattle, I which has the following deserved l eulogy of a man who Is we'll known
 and greatly respected throughout
 Alaska:
 To obtain a story of the life and I works of Bishop Crimont, you most go | into the Land of the Midnight Sun,
 where he has fabored, and there you
 will find 1t engraved in deep and in-
 delible characters across the rugged
 land and rugged souls which he has
 labored to reclaim to Almighty God.
 The story is there, and 1t is pure gold,
 but you must dig 1t from the frozen
 ribs of the Northland as the miner
 does the precious metal you can
 not get 1t from his lips.
 It was in 1858, in Picardy, France,
 that Bishop Crimont was born. His life work was planned early. At 12 years he entered the Jesuit college. in 1875 he entered the Society of Jesus at St. Acheuei, where he studied for seven years. In 1886 he came to Woodstock, Md, and two years later
 was ordained priest by Cardinal Glib. bons. Several years were then spent as missionary among the Crow In dians, and in 1894 he was sent to Alas ka. In 1901 he was called to the pre- sidency of Gonzaga College at Spo- kane, which made great strides under his scholarly direction. In 1904 he was called back to Alaska to succeed Father J. B. Rene as prefect apostolic
 Holy Cross Mission, on the lower Yukon, sabout 400 miles from St. Mi chael, was where Bishop Crimont be- gan his first labors in Alaska. Nearly quarter of century has elapsed and his labors have borne nich fruit.
 Stewards dream = fantastic as the northern lights in '67-bas been real ized Alaska has made wonderful progress in civilizing her great terri tory and the Cross has ever been in the van. The vicarate apostolic of Alaska comprises territory equal in size to that of all the states east of the Mississippi river It's broad ex- panse Is dotted here and there with permanent churches and mission sta tions, administered to by twenty-two priests of the Society of Jesus. There are, moreover, ten lay brothers of the society and fifty-seven Sisters of Char ity Of Providence, of St. Ann. St Jo- seph of Peace and the Ursuline Nuns. l who conduct six hospitals. four board l ing schools, five day schools and an orphanage. The number of children cared for in these institutions totals 42S. During Bishop Crimont's admin istration as prefect apostolic there have been built modern hospitals at Fairbanks and Seward. an up to date parochial school at Juneau, beautiful edifices of worship at Valdez, Cordova, Seward, Anchorage and Iditarod, be- sides which many mission stations have been erected and six others are now in the course of construction.

 That is nothing to Us," replied the Ruthless Spiders. "Whoso disobeys our Orders we will destroy. Be warned"
 This thing we will not Endure" said the Bee Leaders, and they set about spreading their Wings and sharp. ening their Stings for Combat.
 But as they prepared to fight there arose from among the Mass of Honey Bees clamor Of Pacifist Buzzers. cry Ing out in many voices (some of which echoed the Spider accenO:
 Tt Is not the will of the tribe that we go to war. Make no movement un- til opportunity Is given for all to vote upon the question"
 So the Chosen Leaders were bound to tnaction, awaiting the vote of the Honey Bees, whose interest and lives and honor they guarded.
 When in the course of tribal events the vote had been registered the Paci- list Buzzers were overthrown by the re- sentiment of an angered tribe, and the word went out to the Chosen Leaders:
 Our honor has been assailed, our will is for war, go forth and fight"
 But the Chosen Leaders did not fight.
 They could not.
 They were dead.
 The Ruthless Spiders had killed them.
 And when the Bee tribe, late and leaderless, took the air they were en- tangled In the webs of the Ruthless Spiders and utterly destroyed.

ance In Its calendar. The revival Of
this feast, educational and patriotic
In Its motives, is the idea Of the pres
ent president, Senior don Estrada Ca

marks the close of the school year, and
prizes are awarded for excellence In
scholarship. One of the prizes-$1OO
gold and a trip to the United States
was given by an American company
for the best essay written In English.
Ceremonies intended to lnculcate love
of country and devotion to duty also
form part of the celebration. There is
also an exhibition of the products of
the republic held I'm connection with
the annual event. OF the exhibits this
year. coffee, sugar and sugar cane de-
serve special mention. American-made
plows and disk plows specially adapted
to sugar-cane cultivation were on dis
play.

Measure Hides by Air Pressure.

A German method for measuring
the area Of hides by means of air
pressure has been recently patented.
The measuring instrument consists of
table top with many small holes In
1t, spaced at regular intervals, mount
ed on a funnel base, through which,
and through the holes In the top, a
suction fan draws air. The hide, when
placed on the table, reduces the cross
section OF the air current and so pro-
duces a rarefaction of the air, which
In turn creates subpressure that can
be measured from the combined read
ings Of vacuum gauge and tacho-
meter-an instrument that registers
the velocity of air currents.

HOPES TO GET RID OF PEST
italian Professor Thinks He Has
Found Way to Exterminate the De-
structive Field voIe.

A plague Of field voles having prac-
tically destroyed last summers grain
crop In the province of Foggia, south
eastern Italy, Professor Splendore has
made an interesting investigation that
points to a possible remedy. Many
of the animals were noticed to be dy-
ing and In 40 specimens sent to him
at Rome Professor Splendore found a
cocco-bacillus, evidently new species,
that was present In the blood, inter-
nal organs and Emphatic glands. The
rapidly spreading and quickly fatal
epizootic seemed to be undoubtedly
due to this organism. Healthy voles
died I'm less than "a hours after sub
cutaneous incubation from an infect
ed liver or spleen; others fed with in-
fected material died In three or four
days, and In others kept near dead or
infected voles the disease developed
In a few days. Mice, rats and rabbits
proved also capable of infection. The
organism was isolated from the In
testines of fieas found on an infected
vole, and 1t was concluded that feas
carry the infection and that If inocn-
lated voles were suitably distributed
in q region of healthy ones the fieas
would rapidly spread an epidemic that
might free the locality from the de-
structive pest.

MUST KEEP SUCCESS IN MIND
He Who Would Reach the Goal OF His
Desires Cannot Admit POSI-
biity Of Defeat.

Success, to be achieved in reality,
must be mentally lived for months,
sometimes for years, before 1t arrives.
Napoleon, with his dreams Of power
and conquest, realized them more fully
than any other man. Jeanne
dare, with her dreams of freeing her
country and setting her king on his
rightful throne, accomplished her de-
sires through the very force and
strength Of her thoughts. To her 1t
was the sole object of her life; her
mind knew of no other project but that
which the spiritual voices had hidden
her pursue.
We could cite hundreds of instances
in history, but unless you are disposed
to believe the truth of the power of
mind you would be no more convinced
than you are now. Look about you at
the cases where good luck seems TO
have attended the efforts of we'll
known workers of today. You will
find In practically every instance that
the person who reaches his goal Is the
one who works, to be sure, but with no
other idea than success In his mind.
Nothing daunted by petty discourage
ments or setbacks, he goes right on,
having no doubt that I'm the end he
will achieve success. And he usually
does.

AGENT GOOD BUSINESS MAN
indianian Credited With Deal That for
Its Shrewdness Would Be
Hard to Beat.

Last summer I'm a suburban town,
when a circus was billed for the city,
the billposters came, to cover the dead
walls with the fiaring announcements.
Near the railway station was build
ing that had its walls annually deco
rated. The station agent, who was in
no way related to the owner Of the
building, saw the walls being deco
rated, near the station, and thus ac-
costed the billposter:
docs pa know you're putting up
them bills here?"
"Why, no. i didn't think thered be
any trouble"

wont that fix it?"
"Well," replied the agent, "pa's awful
particular, bat guess l can fix it,"
The owner of the building later
heard the story, and going to the agent
demanded the tickets, explaining that
the building belonged to him. The
agent declared that IF the building
does belong to you, 1t was my idea,
wasn't it?' This apparently settled
the matter, as the agents little girl
ate peanuts at that circus and watched
with wondering eyes the different acts,
and she was accompanied by her ia
