Pfeil in the box. Pfeil is considered
one Of the best pitching products OF
the year. Just who Bureau will pitch
is a problem. The contest is expected
to draw a big crowd as the Bureau
followers will be out in force.

will oppose each other in today's en-
gagement. Joe GiebeI, OF the Bureau
team, has a host Of followers. Bus
Hager, Of Naval Operations, is backed
by many adherents.
Both backstops are in fne fettle

Little Rock, Sept. 1.-The erec- tion of modern buildings in Little Rock, Fort Smith, and Hot Springs, the establishment of corps in Para gould, Helena, Jonesboro and Pine Bluff, and the extension of its work into every county and township of the state and nation, are among the things outlined by Lieut.-Col.

 He was in consultation with A. s. Phelps, state campaign manager, with reference to the organization throughout the state, and expressed himself as well-pleased with what has bee accomplished.

Mexican Mine Law :. of 1884 Held to Be
 Unconstitutional

Mexico City, Aug. 2s.-(Corres- pondence of the Associated Press. T. The mining law of 1884 is unconstltu- tional and illegally excepts hydrocar- bonates in the soil and subsoll from the national doman, according to letter from Jose Vazquez Schlattlno, chief of the petroleum section of the 1 department of industry and commerce i in Fl Universal. Protest by foreign oil interests against alleged confls- catory oil decrees is based on rights acquired under this law.
 In farming the oil law initiative, sent by President Carranza to con gress last November for developing article 27 of the constitution, MT. Schiaffino said, his department was impelled by the highest motives and sought to protect vested interests and investments. He asserted that the reading of the transitory provisions of this initiative would show that, In regard to vested interests created by the protection of former laws, only a simple tax was imposed.
 With regard to the mining law of 1884, his statment said: This de partment has not interpreted caprlcl- ously in thousand different ways article 27; but in only one way. the revindication of the dominion of the nation over the hydrocarbonates of the soil and subsoil and it's incorpora- tion into the mining regime whicf always has been in force in Mexico since the time of the Spanish domi. nation, and from which it was illegal ly expected by an unconstitutiona law.

Denatured Alcohol Is Used as Beverage

Cincinnati, O., Sept. 11.-lnternal Revenue Collector Gilligan has re- ceived a communication from the commissioner at Washington advis- ing that reports received there estab- fish the fact that completely dena- tured alcohol is being used extensive ly for bathing and rubbing purposes. Such use of completely denatured al- cohol is highly injurious to the skin and animal tissues, it is stated.
 It also has been established, it is said, that denatured alcohol is being sold in some instances by dealers under circumstances that assure them it is being used for beverage pur- poses. Where it is used for any length of time blindness inevitably ensues, and the continued use can only result in death, according to the commissioner.
