4 canary's ears are at the back Of

no outer ear such as animals have.
but simply a small opening which Is
covered by feathers. 1t is quite sur
prising that birds should possess the
very acute hearing which they do
while lacking the fieshy flap which en-
ables the animals to catch sounds.

New York.-Burglary was the last
thing that Leon Lasansky and his fam
lily thought of when they left their
apartment on the fifth floor of the
house at 1855 Park avenue. And, be-
sides, the house was being watched by
detectives.

ton with the affairs of Mrs. Maude A.

glars. Clothing, jewelry and silver
ware valued at $1,000 had been stolen

ENGLISH CHEER BATTLE HYMN
Julia Ward Howe's Classic Received
Enthusiastically in London
Concert.

London.-An American surprise was
sprung on the fashionable audience at
the opening Of the annual series OF So
called popular concerts" which for
a generation have been a weekly fea-
ture Of the musical season in London.
The soloist Of the afternoon was Miss
Carrie Tubb, perhaps the most popu-
lar of native English prlma donnas.
In response to the customary demand
for an encore, she sang with splendid
dramatic effect the famous "Battle
Hymn Of the Republic" When the
first notes of the piano accompaniment
tinkled out there were some smiles
among the audience, who knew the air
principally as used by the Salvation
army to carry a religious song in its
open-alr meetings. But the intense
fervor of the singer swept all before
her, and the song was heard In breath
less silence and hailed with enthusl-
astlc applause.

KEEP UP FOOTBALL INTEREST
Biauest lntersectional Grldlron Con.
test OF Season Slated for Ann
Arbor, November 10.

Cornell and Michigan will do their
bit this fall to keep up the interest
In football. The annual game between
these two schools was scheduled as
usual last winter. but owing to unrest
in football circles as result Of this
countrys entry into the war 1t was
thought doubtful for time that the
game could be played.
AS result Of Secretary Of War
Bakers boost for football and college
athletics In general, the Cornell-Michl-
gan game, scheduled for Ann Arbor
on November 10, will be staged, and
II will be the biggest intersectlonal at
traction Of the season.
Cornell took q stand for football
while Harvard and Yale announced
plans for abandoning their schedules,
and the re-entry Of Michigan into the
western conference stimulated interest
at the Ann Arboi school and had much
to do with the decision Of the athletic
board to go through with football plans
on as large scale as possible.

POPULAR SPORTS IN MEXICO
MANY Amateur Baseball and Soccer
Football Teams In Mexico City
Play at All Times.

That amateur sport Is hourlshing In
the Mexican capital is shown by the
fact that there are 102 organized anna
teur baseball mines in Mexico City and
its suburbs and so soccer football
teams.
The season for all varieties Of sport
in Mexico lasts II months year, as
the climate permits play at all times.
Even during the rainy season the morn
lngs are almost always clear AMI sun
shiny, and the nature Of the soil and
the high dry atmosphere make delay
on account of wet grounds almost un'
known.
No regular league series are played
by the baseball clubs, but short series
between three or more selected teams
are arranged for month to month. The
games usually are played on Sunday
morning or on feast days and holidays
and. as q general thing, no admission
Is charged.
Many of the larger athletic clubs and
colleges and professional schools have
three or four teams each, the first
teams drafting players from the lesser
teams as they are developed.

ards after he had captured German

slngle-hnnded In the fierce fighting
along the Chemin des Danes. Cuny
Is not yet twenty years old and had
just been sent to the front when he
performed the act of gallantry which
won him the War Cross with d star
and palm on the ribbon. Cuny
crawled out In "No-Man's-Land" at
night on reconnaissance duty and
found shell hole between the two
belts Of barbed-wlre entanglements, oc-
cuplcd by the six Germans who were
acting as machine gun team. Cuny
was armed only with grenades, and as
he squirmed forward on his stomach
to the edge of the crater and raised a
bomb to throw In among the Boches,
they all six raised their hands and
cried, 'Kamerade."
Cuny ordered them to the French
lines and made them carry their ma
chine gun with them. He took the
six steel German helmets off to Chan.
tllly-he was granted nine days leave
for his bravery-and gave them as
souvenirs to the American ambulance
boys recuperating there.

TEN RULES FOR DISLOYALlSTS
"cerman Efficiency" Applied to Pro-
motion Of Traltorous Propaganda
at Least Personal Risk.

Pro-kaiser and anti-war propagan-
dists reveal their lack of German eff
cheney" In the frequency with which
they get themselves pummeled or
'plnched."
In the interest OF more efficiency,
the Independent has condensed the
methods of the most successful practl-
toners of disloyalty into ten rules
for carrying on traitorous propaganda
ut least personal risk.
Most of all Of these rules so accur-
ately describe the arguments which
nearly everybody has heard from one
or more of the traitorous-minded that
they are worth frequent perusal. the
rules are:
I. Assert on every occasion that
"Wall street" made the war. Never
mind explaining when, how or why.
2. Get in all the sneers you can at
any profession Of ideal motives. "
you can find any flaw In our democ-
racy say that 1--WE are just as bad an
autocracy as Germany" Place the
war In as sordld light as possible.
3. It is dangerous to denounce the
United States directly. But rake his
tory from end to end for mud to throw
at the allies. Especially, twist the
lions tail.
a. Profess great concern lest send
ing food to Europe will starve Amer
ica. Support every embargo movement
that applies to the allied nations and
none that does not.
s. II the president asks for any ex-
tension Of power rave about dictator
ship" and the overthrow Of the llber-
ties for which our fathers, etc"
6. Spread rumors that the allies are
going to betray US or take advantage
Of US as soon as we are deeply enough
involved in the war.
7. Accept eonscription in principle
but hamper Its working in every pos.
sible way. One good way is to start
scares about revolutions and Internal
disorder as a pretext for keeping a
large part Of the army at home.
8. Demonstrate that the enemy Is
uncomfortable and victory hopeless.
Play the "eandld friend" and act as q
depressant.
9. Be very Jealous to prevent zen.
tangling alliances" and be much con-
cerned about the Monroe doctrine II
we "mix ourselves in European quar-
rels." A permanent league of nations
would embarrass your Junker friends
if.they remain in power after the war.
Germany can only hope to conquer
other nations II they act selfishly and
in isolation.
10. WHEN DRIVEN TO MAKE AN
UNEQUlVocAL STATEMENT PRO-
TEST YOUR LOYALTY AND THEN
CHANGE THE SUBJECT.
Cut this out and hand 1t to the next
pacifist or lulie-warm friend who tries
to start an argument.

should be the winning pitcher each
time.
Fortunately Marquard was not
forced to extend himself In the game
referred to, as Rube has had tough
times after making his records. After
Marquard's winning streak was broken
In 1912 he just dubbed around until
the end of the season, being OF very
little use to the Giant team. He found
himself In the worlds series that fall,
winning two Of the three games won
by New York from the Red Sox In
1912.
Pittsburgh Beaten Twice.
After Marquard established a new
National league long distance record
In 1914, by beating Pittsburgh on July
II. he did not win another game that
year. He lost ten straight. He then
started the 1915 season in a blaze of
glory by pitching no-hlt game over
Brooklyn, only to 60 to pieces after
that. In midseason he was released to
Toronto.
The Fulton County news. [volume] (McConnellsburg, Pa.) 1899-current, 1917-10-18

The next thing Rube Marquard,
maker of records, will shoot for Is the
24-lnnlng record of Jack Coombs, who
in 1906 won the longest major League
game ever played.
Rube, however, could retire from
baseball tomorrow with more records
than any baseball pitcher ever
achieved. In 1912 Rube tied Tim
Keefes old record by winning ID
straight, and in 1914 he pitched the
longest National league game ever
fought up to that time, defeating Pitts
burgh In a 21-lnnlng contest. Recent
ly Marquard got into the twenty-sec-
ond inning Of the game played between
Brooklyn and Pittsburgh on Ebberts
Field In time to get credit for winning
the longest tilt In the AZ years the Ma
tional league has been In existence.

Bitten by an Eaole.

Boston.-Peter Kallanis Of No. 43
fremont street, Lynn, was the vic
tim of an eagle recently. Out Of
the heat that baked fremont and Mar
ket streets, Lynn, the bird swooped
toward the sidewalk, and fastening It's
talons in Peters arm, took good
bite. The victim was rescued by
fellow countryman, Peter Chaggris,
who stunned the bird. Together they
carried the bird to the first Peters
home, there to be held In captivity, for
the law says the American eagle shall
not be killed.
