REV. s4oRrAN 1. W. W.
Candidate For Mayor Of Sioux City
Has Unfortunate Alliance.

Special to Tines Republican.
Sioux City, march, 2s.-Since there
has been talk Of city election this
spring and especially since it became
evident that the Rev. Wallace H.
Short was to be a, candidate fo- the
Office of mayer on the ticket he
styled the labor ticket" it has been
known this would be a warm cam
paign. but no one anticipated it-%ould
grow so warm as it has grown in the
last few days and as it promises to
continue until the ballots are counted
next Monday evening.
There are two tickets, the "citi-
zens" and the labor The citizens
ticket is headed by Mayor Andrews.
who has back of him substantial bus
mess men.
Rev. Mr.. Short has been in the lime
light for some. First he campaigned
for the retention of the saloons in
Iowa and was ousted from the pas
torate of the Congregational church.
The most serious charge made
against him now is that he is in full
sympathy with the I. w. w. movement
and that his candidacy for mayor Is
simply an effort on his part to dras
union labor Of the city to the level OF
the T. w. VS.. In support of this
claim it is Shown that in 1914 and
1915 when Sioux City was infested
with members of the organization and
had scores of them in Jail he mingled
with and sympathized with them. 1t
is also shown that an article, written
by him and appeared in a Sioux City
daily and in the Survey Of Oct. 30
1915, page 106 an article clarifying the
action Of the members Of the organ

various acts Of lawlessness about the
city. This article, along with state
ment made by the breaches candidate

the war, are being circulated in an
effort to show the real labor element
of the city that they are being madI

fact, but has been foisted on the la

Chicago March 23.--Ten miles in
10 different ways in one hour That
the program Of Christian Christensen.
Champion versatile athlete of the
world. Christensen has already gone
over the mile route five different ways
in a little less than an hour and he Is
planning his big stunt for August in
Chicago.
It was in Grant park last August that
Christensen rode a bicycle a mile IN
3.17 2-5, ran mile jim 5.32 rs. walked
a mile in 9.o5 is, rowed mile in 1880
As and swan mile in 1853 20, a
total of 54.46 2-5 for the five miles.
Christensen insists that he did not
go the limit in this tryouttand that he
can reduce his time by several minutes
in these events and add five more miles
to the exhibition.
Here's what Christensen proposes |"
do:
Fly a mile in 1850.
Roller skate Il mile in $3.50.
Drive an automobile mile in 1870.
Ride a motorcycle mile in 1880.
Ride a horse mile in $3.50.
Ride bicycle a mile in 2:OO
Run mile in 500.
Walk a mile in $3.50.
Row a mile in 900.
Swim a mile in 10000.
This amounts to $3.50 after which
Christensen may make 60-foot high
dive, lust to show he isn't tired. After
that he proposes to call it day and go
home.

Dane, but when it comes to being a
real Durable Dane" Christensen has
Bat batted off the boards
An idea of just how good he is and
how durable he is is indicated by his
running records. He isn't champion
over any distance. but he's mighty good
over any distance from two furlongs to
80 miles.
Christensen has run the 440 in %

life Christensen ran 10 miles in so: IA

he went down to Seattle and logged ~

ton Of Pop Bottles.

Columbus, O.. March 22.-Girl power
is to replace man power at the Column
bus park of the American Association
this season. The reason for the change
as explained by Joe Tinker president
and mancgar of the club, is a mixture
of patriotism and the extreme difficulty
in obtaining men for the work.
When baseball fans buy their tickets
this season they will receive theft
change from u Girlish cashier; they
will hand their "ducat to "A trim brun-
Meteor perhaps blonde. \ uni
formed girl will operate the turnstiles
and girls Will be employed as ushers.
Tinker said that when he gets his
new plan in operation about the only
mere man connected with the park will
be the baseball players, the manager,
club secretary and ground keeper.
Even the peanut boy probably will be
no boy at all. Girls probably will be
tried for the work.
Men will be in great demand this
summer. Tinker contends. and the rad
ical move will release several men for
military duty who otherwise would
have been employed.
