BRITAIN ONLY WARNING
COUNTRY TO BAR RACING
Order Has Brought About Much
Criticism From Followers of That
Popular Sport.

London, June THE stoppage Of
fiat racing in England has brought
about much criticism from followers of
the sport throughout the country as
Great Britain and Ireland are the only
countries engaged in the war where
racing cannot take place. This is not
the fault of owners and breeders, who,
although suffering heavy losses, were
willing to carry on the sport with the
object Of keeping up the record of the
United Kingdom as the finest horse
breeding country in the world. The
War Cabinet have, however, placed a
ban upon racing because OF what they
regard as public opinion" although no
explanation is made as to how that
opinion was arrived at.
France, although part Of her terri
tory Is in the hands Of the Germans,
recognizes the absolute necessity Of
racing the thoroughbred for the sake
Of horse breeding. The sport began at
Chantilly on May and further seven
days racing took place during the
month. Ten days have been arranged
for June, while four have been decided
upon for July at Maisons- Lanttee, and
other meetings are scheduled for every
month up to October. The French War
Horse society has voted its budget for
this season and will disburse 113, 300f.
to the following meetings: Aurillac,
June 5, 6.000f.; Tarbes, June 8, TO-
000f.: Sales de Beaun, June IL, 6,600f.;
Caen, Sept. Is, 1S,300f.; Cerlay, Sept.
20, 10,600f.; Nantes, Sept. 81, 21,s00f.;
Chanelles, October, 15,000f. and Pau,
October, 25,000f.
The Germans and Austrians are
equally alive to what any undue inter-
ference with the horse breeding indus
try would mean to their army. During
May twenty-seven days racing took
place in Germany. There has been both
racing and trotting at Vienna, Ham
burg, and Munich, and in many other
districts.

GREAT ''HONUS"
WAGNER BACK IN
THE GAME TODAY
Signs Contract With Old
Team Wednesday-Had
Intended to Quit
(By Associated Press.)

Pittsburgh, June John Henry
(Honus) Wagner, star shortstop, who
failed to report to the Pittsburgh Ma
tionals at the beginning of the season
after twenty years as a player in the
National league, Wednesday signed a
contract with President Barney Drey-
fuss Of the Pittsburgh club.
1t was announced that Wagner will
appear at first base in today's game
with Brooklyn.
Wagner took unto himself a wife
after the close Of the 1915 season, and
early this spring announced that he
was through with the game. Though
attempt after attempt had been made
to get him to change his decision, he
refused overtures until Wednesday.
Wagner has always been one of the
tearing hitters in the National league.
He had a poor year in 1915, hitting
but .2S7. Many fans believe he felt
that he was going back, and decided to
quit.

News From The World Of Sport
WANTS PHYSICIAN

tBy Associated Press.l

New York, June z. The United
States should in the near future have
a medical officer in the presidents
cabinet, in the opinion Of DIR. Charles
n. Mayo, Of Rochester, Mimi, as ex-
pressed Tuesday night in an address be-
fore the annual meeting here Of the
American Medical association, of which
he Is president. In his address DIR.
Mayo asserted that, in the present war,
the medical service has assumed an
importance such as 1t never has be-

cination for smallpox and typhoid, the

old camp fever, also cholera, the plague
and fevers Of all sorts, including the
new trench form, is a training require
ment of the army medical officer, and
results in the restoration to duty Of a
high percentage Of the injured.
We must aid in all that will elevate
the general standard of, and conserve,
the American citizen. Prohibition Is a
war measure the value Of which is be-
yond discussion. Medicine has reached
q, period when alcohol is rarely en-
ployed as a drug, being displaced by
better remedies. AlcohoIs only place
now is in the arts and sciences. Ma
tional prohibition would be welcomed
by the medical profession.
The benefit to our country after the
present war in having some thousands
OF medical officers trained in santa
ton, hygiene and the prevention of
disease will be incalculable. Through
lax examinations of recruits and the
natural effects of prolonged life and
overcrowding in trenches and under
ground structures, tuberculosis will be-
come a menace to our soldiers, as it
is today in France.
1T Is most fortunate that our army
medical service is in the hands OF three
OF our ablest men, Surgeons General
Gorgas, BREASTED and Blue, and we
must laud the work Of the general
medical council under the able direc-
ton of DR.. Franklin Martin.
Medical men, your country needs

remember that the state is permanent
and does not exist for the good Of the

The British Port Base Of the Ameri-
can Flotilla, via London, June 1.-THE
American destroyers have completed
their first month Of active service in
the great war. They have been favored
with excellent weather which is a big
factor in anti submarine warfare. Most
of the time they have had sunny skies
and smooth seas, with just enough
squall and storm to put their seaman
ship to test. The favorable weather
conditions made their task or learning
technique Of i-submarine warfare
much simpler and easier.
The American boats are assigned to
work hand in hand with the British
squadrons, being virtually assimilated
into the British naval machinery here.
A destroyer is usually out for four or
five days and then returns to port for
two or three days while coaling and
loading supplies. Thus every Ameri-
can sailor gets at least half a day
shore leave practically every week.
Holding Up Their End.
The Americans take their turn with
the British boats in all routine work of
patrol and convoy. The work, although
largely routine Is interesting and the
Americans have never yet found time
hanging heavy on their bands. The
lookout must be constant and eyes
must be trained to an unbelievable
degree of keenness. The young Ameri-
cans take zealously to this business OF
finding the periscope needle in the
nautical haystack, and daily reports of
submarines sighted, of observations
made, of wireless warnings sent broad
cast, show that the American boats
are already making an average of re-
suits almost as satisfactory as the long
experienced British boats, with which
they are operating.
There has been no actual battle as
yet, between an American destroyer
and the enemy, but several reports
show that the destroyers have COM
PEELED submarines to beat hasty re-
treat to the depths.

MARROW SKIRTS FoR fall,

New York Times: In the opinion of
prominent designer Of women's
ready-to-wear garments the narrowed
bottom OF barrel skirt, as it was in
troduced in its original form. was only
the forerunner of tighter skirts for fall
than have been seen for some time.
That they will be longer. as well as
narrower, is also the opinion of this
man. The coming Of this vogue win
not restrict the yardages to be cut up,
however, as goods not used in the
body of the skirt will go to form the
draperies. 1t Is further the opinion Of
the designer in question that the
straight-line silhouette will prevail,
and that in many models the narrow
effect viii be gained by using plaits.

Cleveland Plain Dealer: An "alien

nor an enemy in reality. Under the

ment now in the United States bears

Some of them, at least and probably
many are American in sympathy.
A resident OF Rome. N. Y, strolled
into a bank the other day to inquire
whether a subject of the kaiser would
be permitted to buy a Liberty Bond.
Assured that he would, and that rea-
sonable secrecy would be maintained
concerning the purchase, the German
told why he desired thus to further the
fight which the United States is max
ing on the German government.

EAT LESS NEAT
| and MORE CORN
That is the Advice of The
American Medical As
ISOLATION
(Bv Associated Press. )

New York. June IA resolution urg-
ing the American people to eat less
meat and more corn, rice and barley
products as substitutes was adopted
by the house of delegates of the Amert-
can Medical association in convention
here.
The federal food board is requested
in the resolution to appoint scientific
committee of physicians and other ex-
perts on diet and nutrition to act
without pay, in an advisory capacity
and to provide such a commission with
means for a public campaign regarding
nutritional foods ''as well as to warn
the public that high prices will deprive
both the poor of our country and our
allies of meats breads and other foods
necessary for the health, efficiency ana
even life ITSELF.
Congress is asked to expedite legis-
lation giving. the food committee arbi-
tFary powers.
The resolution was introduced by DR..
Scale Harris, of Birmingham, Ala, who
said the country was facing a shortage
of meat and wheat products.
DR.. Harris declared consumption OF
wheat products could be reduced so
per cent by using meal, hominy and
other corn products and that the aver
age life of the nations adults could be
extended perhaps ten years IL each per-
son ate only small portion OF meat
once a day.

American Sailors Holding Up Their
End and Are POPULAR in England

never fails to respond with q great
waving of flags and handkerchiefs from
her docks, and there is a fine exchange
OF wigwag signals.
Occasionally a fortunate liner finds
herself being escorted to port by an
American and British destroyer side by
side, circling about her like twin sis
tiers, a visible sign Of the new alliance.
Spend Money Freely.
Shore leave is generous on the
American ships and the American sail
or is constantly in evidence in this
village, in the countryside roundabout
and in a nearby city, where more met
ropolitan pleasures are available than
in the restricted limits of this little
place. The people of the towns have
taken the American sailor and his
strangely spendthrift ways right into
their hearts. The American sailormen
seem always to have money, which Is
not so strange when 1t is considered
that their rate of pay is considerably
higher than that of the British tar.
"The American gets a dollar every
time we get shilling" is common
expression among the admiring British
seamen. One OF the American sailor s
favorite ways OF showing his opulence
is his habit of always travelling first
class on the railroad, which takes him
from the village up to the city, a trip
of few miles. The extra cost is only
a few pence, but the unheard-o idea
of a common sailor travelling first class
strikes the populace as a startling and
audacious maneuver worthy the best
traditions of American extravaganza.
No Easy Marks in Navy.
Local tradesmen who expected to
find the visitor an easy mark soon
learned their mistake, however, for he
is seldom fooled twice and quickly
learns the demand and value of his
money. Tea time in the village now
has an American flavor. In all the
little inns and shops, and farther afield,
even well into the wonderfully green
remind one of the roads along the
Hudson, one may any afternoon find
groups Of British and American sail
ors drinking their tea and swapping
yarns in true seamanly fashion.

go as well IL not better than in 1915.
AS three-year-old in 1913 William
raced in the west and set the worlds
record for the age at 2:05. The season
following William had part in some
big events and cleaned up several
times when entered in high class fields.
1t was this season that he set the four
year-old record at 200. In 1915 Will
liam had his greatest season and was
the most brilliant performer in most
all of the Grand Circuit events.
If William is back with his 1915
form this season he will liven up the
turf game a great deal and will give
some warm competition to Directum /,

Joliet, ILL.,, Jcne 7.-Evidence that the
revolt in the state penitentiary was
planned with care the preceding night
