SELECTION OF GLEASON
 SURPRISE iS BALLOON
Strong Diciplinarian Who Welded Big Strop to Enforce Rules; Tho Past Fifty Still Husky.

Chicago, H., Jan. 13.-William "Kid" Gleason, famous old time play CTS, whose selection to succeed Clar- ence H. Rowland as manager of the Chicago White SoX came as a distinct surprise, is referred to in baseball cir cles is Fighting Gleason.
 Not that Gleason is quarrelsome, but few persons ever successfully im-- posed on the "Kid." At the age of fifty-three, Gleason is still capable of holding his own in a rough and tum- ble affair with the average man twenty years younger. And most play CTS on the White Sox team of 1913, which Gleason coached, laughlingly admit this.
 Gleason and his ra-1r strap" form an important chapter in the 1913 spring training of the White Sox in California. Jimmy Callahan was manager of the club and from Oak land, he had sent Gleason, with eigh" teen husky recruits and few veter- ans, to Pasadena. The veteran, an ad- vocate of hard work and regular hours, carefully informed the players that 7:30 a. m. would be the signal for showing signs of life.
 Boys, 7:30 means 7:3O," Gleason warned before sending the players to bed the first night in camp.
 Promptly at 7:3O the following day every player in the squad was start led from his slumbers by terrific pounding on the bedroom doors. It was the "Kid" dressed, shaved and ready for breakfast.
 Ten minutes later Gleason made the rounds again. He peered into tN first room and found Jack Fournier, a husky recruit, still unds. the covers. In another room he found second player stealing few extra winks. h. deed none of his charges had stirred from bed.
 Gleason scratched his head, then turning abruptly, he rushed into his own room and emerged an instant lat CT with a heavy leather strop. From Fourier's room issued wild howl of pain. The whack' of the strop on bare flesh resounded through the hall. A moment later a second howl broke from the second room, then from the CiiANs 1OuA etild SO Oti OOWl tilC llSJ. All rooms had been visited in jiffy.
 The Kids rough method was gener- ally taken as bit of good natured roughness. But it did the work, as was proved next morning. Promptly at 7:30 Gleason began pounding on the doors. Ten minutes later he came out of his room with the razor stron But no stropping was necessary. All players, many still rubbing their eyes were dressing. t Gleason comes from the old school of fighting baseball players conducted at Baltimore, where John McGraw, Kellv, Hugh ,Jennines and others made names as, members of the fany ous Orioles. Later he went to the Giants. from there to the Philadel- phia Nationals in 1903 and 1904. then to Detroit. back to .Phi'adelphiay and to the White Sox in 1913 as coach. Gleason finished his twenty odd years as player with the Philadelphia club.
 There always has been 9 bit of mys.

Ten Years Nur,2er His Years
Doesn't it make you feel

Doesn't it make you feel good-cause you to straight en up and feel "chesty"- when someone guesses your age at ten years or so younger than you really are? You look into your mirror, smile with satisfac- tion and say to yourself: Well, he didn't make such a bad guess, at that"
 The point is: You're no older than your vitality.
 If 3 man is strong, vigor- ous, mentally alert, fine and fit at 50 he has a better chance of living up to 80 than a man of 30 who is weak and rundown has of living up to 60. While none of us can stay the years nor stop time, we should all make an heroic effort to suc- cessfully resist the effects of time by ever keeping OUT vitality at par.
 When you sense a feeling of slowing down of your physical forces your stomach, liver, kidneys and other organs show signs of weakness-when you notice a lack of your old time pep" and "punch"- in Other words, when you feel your vitality is on the wane, you should com

Messrs Joel Lambert and C., H. Thomas. agricultural demonstrators of Jefferson county, have secured the University of Arkansas the ser. vices of Mrs. J. V. Ormand. an ex- pert bee culturist, to lecture here this afternoon on the care and cul- ture of bees.
 MT. Ormand is in the employ Of the extension service of the feder- al department of agriculture, but
 while in Arkansas is acting under the auspices of the State Universi- ty.
 He has a message to those who wish to learn something of the care of bees, one of the most profitable adjuncts to any farm. He has de- voted much time and study to this industry, having of his own 2OO0 stands of bees, which are directly
 under his care and supervision
 Mir. Ormand states that there is 1,200 pounds of honey in the blooms grown on the average acre of cotton Tin Arkansas, which cnly awaits the harvest of these winged workers in
 gathering this by<product for the l human family. Thus, it will be seen. if all products were carefully con- served, much food products goes to waste annually
 The lecture will be in the office of the tax assessor this afternoon at
 o'clock, and it is earnestly desired
 that all interested in the subject will come out and hear MT Ormand. He is prepared to tell his hearers not
 only the nature of bees and their
 care, but where to secure the neces- sary matrial foFv their successful culture.

PROMINENT MtXCANS
 ARRESTED AT TUCSON
1nsipient Revolution Nippcd by Fed. eral Officials: Arms in Transit to Mexico Seized.

Tucson, Ariz.. Jan 13.-Seven prominent Mexican and Mexican American residents of Tucson and Douglas, were arrested here today by federal authorities, charged with smuggling arms into Mexico in cctl- naction with a new revolutionary movement. The charges against them were presented at once to the federal grand jury which is now in session.
 The arms seized. it is charged, were on their way to General Juan Gabral, Mexican evolutionary lea der who recently returned to Mexico from Tucson, with the announced in. tention of raising an army for an anti-Carranza movement.
 An automobile loaded with 1,4O0 rounds of ammunition and rifles was seized last night by Federal agents on the road leading to Mexico south of here.
 For some time there have been ru- mors of recrudescence of the F'e- liX Diaz, movement in Northern Mexico, and recent large purchases of arms along the Mexican border, started the investigation which led to the arrests last night
 Major General De Rosy c. Cabell, commander of the southern depart ment, here this afternoon enroute from Arizona to Ft. Sam Houston, said the revolutionary movement in Sonora was apparently a revival of the unsuccessful attempt last sum- mer of Juan Cabral tn launch a s11, IL No1I 'srs burned a few bridges below Nogales. ir
 General Cabell said ne doubted any connection between this move ment and the Felix Diaz movement in the South. He said troops were sent from Nogales, Ariz., recently to intercept the shipment of arms and ammunition which was seized near Tucson last night.
 Department of justice officials here stated today they had no in- formation that the meeting of reru- gee Mexicans here Sunday, January 5th, had any connection with the Cabral movement.
 The name of Francisco Leon de la Barra has been mentioned as an unofficial representative of the poli- tical refugees at the Paris peace conference, also as a possible choice of the leaders opposed to Carranza as provisional president. He is now in Paris.
 The Cabral movement is consider ed here as a part of Villas plan to resume hillary operations in the north, including sSonora.,
 The men arrested were Mike Weh- by,s a Tucson. merchant, who was re- leased on $10,000ebail after a hearing by a United States commissioner, and R. Flores andSG. c. Vasquex, of Tue son, Rosario Lopez, Major Frederico Platt,. formerly presidents of Cananea, Mexico; lgnacio Monge, of Douglas. and a man giving the name of isAgN- es Felix
 Monge has been sought by the Mexi- can government charged with compli. city in the murder of Decembere1 of Custom Collector Cataregli of $Agua Prieta, Mexico and four guards, and the theft of $125,0O0 gold. Four men, two of them residents of Douglas, re- gently were captured at Agua Prieta and executed for the latter crime.

BRIDGE FINISHED;
TRACKLAYERS ARE
IN ACTION AGAIN

The extension of steel sourh, to-
ward the canyon, was resumed to-
day. following the completion of the
Dry creek bridge two miles south
of the Singleton roadhorse. Track
laying will continue steadily now. It
is believed, unless cold weather
should delay the completion Of the
contracts beyond the bridge. 1t Is
estimated that the rails will reach
the canyon about the first OF re-
cember.
The Dry creek bridge IS 5i6 feet
in length, with 43 benrs, y feet
apart.
The majority of the grading con-
tractors beyond the bridge have COM
pleted their allotted tasks and are
now IN town Three contractors are
now busily engaged in taking out
a cut on the south side of DRY
creek which is nearing completion
rapidly. The fill, across the lake,
also will be finished within a few
days, ready for the rails. probably
by the time the steel gang reaches
that point.
The distance between Dry creek
and the north end of the canyon IS
approximately three miles, and after
the rails reach the end of the grade.
a supply depot will be established
at that point for the convenience
of rock contractors who will start
TO work as soon as authorization
comes to proceed with that work.
The amount of rock work under
taken will be limited only by the
amount of material and equipment
available for the work, and will be
sufficient, it is believed, TO keep a
considerab Bile number Of men en-
ployed steadily throughout the win
ter months. :.. j.: ... .. :
The tracklaying is being done
under the direction Of Foreman

D. Browne. from Governor Riggs,
there is at present in Guaymas,
Mexico. a man named Edward Sill

sing, who advised that the Ameri-
can consul at Guaymas reports that
Edward silvan is in Guaymas and
admits burning Alaskan warehouse"
The consul also stated that Silvan

Der T.
The governor believes the ware
house mentioned in the wire was IL
reality the roundhouse at Nenana,
which was destroyed by fire OF myS-
FERROUS origin several winters ago
And he has asked Mr. Browne to
supply the department with all the
information possible regarding Sill
van, with d view to having h;m
brought back to the Uaited States
for trial
Silvan was in Nenana during 1917
and 1918, was engaged in station
work part Of the time and was one
of the active participants in the
strike which occurrei here during
the time that Mr. Riggs was IN
charge of the railroad work. He was
idle al the time Of the roundhouse
fire
The last work done by him was
on December 3. 1918, shortly after
which he Is reported TO have left
for the States.

old war labor board. 49,. ..
Referring to the steel strike, wricn
the committee was appointed to in
vestigate, the report says the cause
Of the strike was the determination
Of the American Federation of Labor
to organize the steel industry. The
question of wages, the investigators
say, was not involved in the dispute.
The committeeman believe the
hours worked by steel operatives are
too long, however, and tbey recon-
mend that a shorter working day
be established for the industry when
the strike is settled.
The report says there is con-
siderable element of revolutionary
tadicalism behind the strike behind
the effort of the federation to or
ganize the industry.
Secretary Foster is branded by
the senators as a radical.
