DOG FANCIERS FACING RUIN
Dealers in England See Disaster In
High Taxes Placed on Animals
70 Conserve Food Supply.

Dog fanciers In England, especially
the women, say that the new dog
taxes are going to kill tn business
they have been carefully building up
Tor years. They do not object to the
suggested increase on old licenses, but
they fear the big tax on new dogs Is
going to frighten away all their Gus
toners.
There are many British women with
small incomes living In the country
who have invested most of their money
in dogs as a business. They were
willing to mark time till the end Of
the war, looking forward I'd revival
In their business afterward. Trade is
Of course slack just now, but with no
money coming in at all they will be
unable to retain their kennels.
One fancier spoke bitterly Of the
sensational stories told In certain-quar-
tiers about pampered dogs and the i'm
possible amount of food they were ac-
cused of eating.

oldest of the baseball organizations.
For five years he has been the main.
stay of the Braves back of the bat, and
his work always has been conscientious
and marked by degree of skill that
marked him leader of those playing
his position. He came into unusual
prominence in the worlds series be-
tween Boston and the Athletics in the
fall of 1914, when the Braves were the
first to win the championship title by
taking four straight games.
Gowdy was the batting hero Of the
series. He also caught all the games
for Boston, and his all-round playing
as catcher was never more brilliant
In his career than In these games.
Standing more than six feet, weighing
close to 100 pounds, of fine intelligent
face, with shock of waving blond
hair, he always has been a conspicuous
figure on the professional diamond.
Gowdy sacrifices salary of $4,000 as a
ball player to serve his country in the
humble capacity Of a private in the
Ohio National Guard.
All honor and glory to Gowdy.

FIRST BASEBALL PLAYER no ENLIST in ARMY

Basenall fans will never forget Harry
(Hank) Gowdy. The tall blond catch
er Of the Boston Braves has made his
name among professional ball players
by no act on the diamond, although he
is known by reputation wherever our
national game is played.
Gowdy is the first player among the
hundreds eligible for national service
in the major league who has enlisted.
By thus coming to the front by his own
voluntary act he not only displays a
true Americanism which reflects great
credit upon him personally, but also
that of his profession. But he also has
done an act that undoubtedly will be
emulated by others of the professional
diamond.
Gowdy is no ordinary ball player.
Neither is he of ordinary mold. He is
recognized leader among those Of his
profession; man with character and
brains. Gowdy is man who would
have been successful in most any voca-
ton that he might have selected, had
not his skill as ball player made
him one Of the best catchers In the

LOSE ExTRA-INNING GAMES
Giants Begin to Get Fidaety After
Contest Has Gone Beyond the
Regulation Distance.

One thing which is absolutely. essen
tial for the Giants to acquire to be
considered real hlgh-class team Is
the ability to win extra-inning games,
writes Frederick G. Lieb In the New
York Sun. Imagine a team like the
old Cubs or the Athletics OF few
years back being considered beaten
after q game Ind passed the nine-in-
ming stage. The Athletics practically
were unbeatable In extra innings. Yet
on the Polo grounds as soon as game
goes into the tenth inning the fans say
Goodnight"
In q way, the mentality OF the Gil
ant players is largely responsible for
this so-called inning jinx. They have
lost so many extra-inning games at
home during the last two seasons that
they get fidgety after a game goes be-
yond the regulation distance.

SHIPS MASCoTS LOSE NERVE
Pet Animals on British Vessels Show
the White Feather When Shells
Begin Exploding.

There are some Incidents about the
mascots In the big naval battle Of Jut-
land which are worth repeating. The
mascot on the Tiger was a bulldog,
fine fellow. When getting into the bat
tie the crew were a bit concerned as
to how their favorite would take the
crashing of high explosives on the
ship, SO they plugged his ears with cot
ton wool, wrapped his head around as
Ii he had a heavy dose Of toothache,
and couple of men took the bulldog,
much to his annoyance, to room that
was thought to be as quiet as the ship
could provide. The dog didn't quite
fancy being treated as an invalid and
resented the coddling, but when the
shots began he took 1t pretty badly
and was mighty glad he had a pal sit
ting on either side holding him by the
paws.
Another boat had fine, big black
cat. He was overlooked when they got
into action, and the flrst shell that
came aboard this fellow got loose and
took flying dive overheard. AS the
boat was going about ~ knots, even
the most tender-hearted Jack Tar
could hardly risk going after Tommy.
On another ship they had little BAN
tam. which struttcc about more proud
" than the dinkiest mIdshlpman and
with as big show of courage as the
hardest Of old seadogs. The tars
were proud of the "swunko their pet
could assume before strangers. When
the first German she'll crashed on
board the bantam lost all his Gne show
and few down one of tile ventIlntors.
When he was rescued and photo
graphed after the fight he presented a
bedraggled observation-disclosures Pest.

MUSIC NEED OF FIGHTING MEN
sIare Of Band instrumental Brings
Cheer to Troops and Is Just as
Necessary as Ammunition.

"The blare Of the trombone, the
shrill note of the piccolo and the
drums blending with other band In
struments in military Organization
give cheer to the men with the guns
and is just as necessary as ammuni-
ton" says Charles n. Parsons Of New
York. "Durtng the Spanish-American
war the tunes happily accepted were
those of the vaudeville stage, when
'ThereU Be Hot Time in the Old
Town Tonight was said to have led
troops to the capture of San Juan hin.
The old Civil war melodies having the
swing Of march cadence were first OF
all, Dixie probably used, at least
hummingly, By the soldiers of the
North, as those who followed the
Stars and Bars And It is worth while
to recall that Dixie was the most
popular of all the melodies strummed
In camp and sung in action of all the
old-time songs during the war of 1898.
Canned music will give to the boys
at the front much of their entertain
ment evenings to come" added Mr..
Parsons. 1.-THE Photographic records

will have programs provided by the

uPHEAvAL AT BERLIN NEAR.
Peace is Demanded by German PoIitl-
cal Organization.


Copenhagen.-A dispatch to the
Fremdenblatt Of Hamburg says that
the entire clerical party in the reich
stag, with the exception of three men,
bers, voted Saturday night to support
the stand taken by Matthias Erzberger,
who made a sensational speech in the
secret session Of the main committee
attacking the admiralty and pan-Ger-
mans as the greatest obstacles to peace
and advocating peace without annexa-
tons or indemnities and the introduc-
ton of parliamentary form of gov
eminent. This action was taken, the
dispatch says, under the presumption
that Chancellor Won Bethman- Hollweg
would retire.
The clerical party is the largest in
the reichstag. Hitherto it has worked
with the conservatives In giving the
government majority. Any such
move as is indicated by the foregoing
dispatch would amount to a political
oyerturn Of the first magnitude. This
dispatch bears out advices cabled from
Berlin Saturday that unless all indica-
lions failed momentous upheaval was
ut hand.
