OPEN SCOTTISH
RITE REUNION
HERE MONDAY
Ceremonies to Continue Four
Days-Large Class
Expected

The Scottish Rite reunion will open
on Monday morning of next week, and
continue for four days, with three ses-
sions each day. Lunch will be served
at noon and dinner at night each day,
and Thursday evening the class ban
quet will be held.
There is every indication of an ex-
cellent class being present. Secre-
tary Hill received four new applica-
tions this morning, and every mail
brings in some more petitions. 1t is
probable that this will be the last
reunion for some time-it Is certain
that there will not be another gath
ering of this kind before late in, the
fall, and the war may interfere even
with that.
The musical features will be most
attractive, and the entire work will
be well presented. The opening ad-
dress will be made Monday forenoon
by Hon W. A. Scott, the deputy for
the state. and every candidate should
be in the class room at this time, as
this lecture will assist in giving a
much better comprehension of the
system of degrees to be presented.
1t Is probable that there will be a
large number of the older members
here to enjoy the session and to renew
old acquaintance. The officers re-
quest that as many of the local mem
bers as possible make it convenient
to spend all the time possible at the
temple, SO as to assist in giving all
visitors a good time.

ABSENCE OF FATHER
CAUSE OF DELINQUENCY
Condition Prevalent Over British EN-
pire, Statement of Lord Sand.
witch to Parliament.

London, June 1.-The absence of
the father and big brother from the
home is one of the chief reasons for
the Juvenile delinquency during the
war so apparent in all parts of Eng
land, according to statements made in
parliament the other day by Lord
Sandwich. Statistics from seventeen
large cities" said Lord Sandwich,
"show an increase of thirty-four per
cent in the number of young Offend
ers. There are a number of causes,
prominent among them being street
takers, the lack of Fairgrounds NOV
ing picture shows and the general dis
turbance of home life"
Lord Sandwich made a plea for the
characterization of the Boy Scouts. At
present, he said that movement SEEM
ed to cater more for boys of the mid
die or better class and not sufficiently
for the boys about the streets.

INFLUENCE OF
AMBASSADOR
SAVES PASTOR
Intercedes Successfully for
British Subjects About
To Be Interned
(By Associated Press.)

London, June 2.-How the influence
of the American ambassador in Con-
stantinople prevented the Turkish au-
thorities from informing the leading
British clergyman there was related
here the other day by British official
who succeeded in getting out of the
Ottoman empire. 1t happened before
the United States entered the war.
THE American embassy at Constan-
tineple.' this official said. looked aft
er the interests of the British colony
very thoroughly. The American am
bassador was on excellent terms with
the Turkish authorities, and his tact
full Intervention often prevented in
ternments.
THE Turks. at the instigation of the
Germans, decided to intern the British
Non conformist minister-the most
popular European in Constantinople.
The minister was seized, conveyed
across the Bosphorus, and was on his
way to an Asia Minor concentration
camp when the American ambassador
heard of the case.
Instead of protesting Indignantly,
the ambassador quietly expressed re-
greet that the authorities should treat
harshly a man who had devoted a
large part of his life to the good of the
Turkish government.
Enver Pasha at once realized the
force Of the ambassadors view and a
courier dispatched hot haste instruct

Chicago June 2.-"The United States

are through with this war;" said Cap
tain w. A. Moffett, commandant at the
Great Lakes naval training station in
an address before members Of the
Press club Of Chicago yesterday.
Congress-" he continued, has au-
thorized an increase in the strength of
the navy to 10000 men, but think
four times this number will be needed
before we are through"
This Is a nation which thinks itself
great. 1t is at war, in the mightiest
war of history, its naval forces already
are engaged in it. But instead of train
ing its recruits for service in this navy
1t is swearing them into service and
sending them back home because of
the lack of training facilities. Between
1000 and 5000 men have been accepted
in this manner and sent back home, on
government pay. to await orders to re-
port for training. We ought to be train
ing men night and day."

CRAWFORD GETTING HIGH
SALARY FOR ACTING AS
DETROIT BENCH WARNER


: Lee Foil, manager of the Cleye-
lands, is looking around for an out
field utility man and has had his eye
on Sam Crawford, veteran outfielder
of the Tigers, for a long time. But
there's nothing doing. He can't have
Sam, at least not for the present.
President Navin of the Detroit Tigers
knows that he has good man in
Crawford, otherwise he would not
have rejected the offer of James c.
Dunn, owner of the Clevelands, to
buy the veteran at a liberal figure
Crawford is getting a salary of ST.
500 year and Navin is glad to pay
it, despite the fact that lately Craw-
ford has been doing much excpet pol
ishing the bench. 1t was in 1913 that
Navin got hold of Sam and signed
him up for a four year contract. at
the above mentioned figure.
Sam is now serving the last year of
that contract, waiting for pinch hit
ting opportunities to come along and
give him something to do At that
his average is pretty low, being some
where around $50. He is said to be
the highest salaried pinch hitter in the
history of baseball.

TESREAU'S GREAT
PITCHING DEFEATS
STALLINGS' TEAM

Boston, June 22-The Giants had to
do little more than go through the
motions yesterday afternoon in order
to beat the Braves, A to. o. behind jeff
Tesreau- Jeff sometimes used. his
moist ball and sometimes he bluffed it,
but the result was that the Stallings
tribesmen registered only three hits
against him, reaching second base
only three times and never advancing
beyond that station.
All afternoon the New Workers
pounded the ball hard when it was
served to them by Pat Raglan, the
former Brooklinite, the Braves out
field being kept eternally busy. Not
withstanding their hits, the Giants
failed to get full value, because of
inability to hit in the pinches.'
The Braves were retired in order in
six of their nine innings, and really
were dangerous only once. This was
in the fourth, when, with the Giants
leading only to o, the stage was set
for some real damage. Kelly, after
getting a single, was forced by Evers,
who made second. while Fletcher
made great stop of Wilhoit's hit that
shot through the box. Then both
MEgee and Konetchy landed on the
ball squarely, but Robertson and
Burns were watching for their long
line drives and splendid catches took
the starch completely out Of the home

DOWNS Red S0X

New York, June 22-The Yankees
took another from the Red Sox OF

after almost repudiating their victory
in spectacular and McGrawlike
manner a couple of times. Roger
Peckinaugh settled the argument in
the eighth and closed the incident
with a two-base drive to left field.
scoring Pipp and making the score S
to 4.
Slimuel Love, the slender sapling of
Wild William Donovan's southpaws,
started the game, but in the sixth inn
ing he appeared to hear the ferocious
bark of the hungry squirrel and went
wild He passed two men and lost
the range of the plate ;-ltogether
With an ear keenly attuned to the
rattle of the can, Wild William rush
ed forth and pulled the affrighted
side wheeler into the shelter of the
dugout.
Urban Shocker who has ability
mixed with horseshoes, .1as sent in to
the rescue. Two runs were scored
with the start given by Love, but af-
ter that inning Urban held he Sox
safe. In the ninth inning he had
the more serious followers of the
Yanks on the verge of heart failure
with the bases filled and only one
out.
Larry Gardner, about as formidable
and as timely a swatter as there is
in F'razee's collection, was the next
man up. At least one run seemed
an immortal cinch. There was a
shudder as Gardeners bat met the
ball with a resounding crack The
ball came with bullet force to Shock
er, who stopped it and threw to the
plate, mailing Hoblitzel in his tracks
for a force-out.
Walters then whipped a pretty
throw to Pipp, cutting off Gardner
and completing a rapid fire double
play That spilled the Red Sox
drive all over the surrounding land
scape If Gardeners swipe had gone
a little either side of Shocker it would
have come pretty close to erasing
the vivid Indian sign which the Yam
KEGS have pinned on the Sox for
the current season, which ends to-
morrow.

him. Cutshaw making fine stop OF
