Associated Press

ASSocldlet SEATTLE, Feb. 5.-Every hope that was ever entertained of avert ing the threatened general strike, has now been abandoned, and the big strike will go into effect to- morrow morning. Everything pos sible to bring the men and the em- ployers together, so that satis- factory agreement could be reached had been done, but it would ap- pear that the strike is inevitable. It is estimated that forty-five thousand workers in the various trades will go out tomorrow in sym pathy with the twenty-five thousand shipyard workers who struck some time ago.
 The striking workmen have made all arrangements for the housing and feeding of the strikers for as long as the strike will last.
 The Electrical Workers Union, who have elected to join the strike, make the statemnt that the strike of the electrical workers will leave the city institutions, even the hos pitals, in darkness.
 The mayor rf Seattle, in state ment issued to the people regarding the dctum of the Electrical Work CTS Union regarding the lights, said that the city will have lights from

Evils of Tobacco

Some Of the evils of tobacco are
shown in the experience Of a
twelve-year old boy of Captiva,
who has acquired the habit OF
smoking. Parenthetically, it may
be mentioned that his parents had
presented him with a new suit of
clothes, Of which he was as proud
as Of his smoking ability.
1t so happened that Jesse was
going to school and had on his
new suit; and, the boys being pro-
hibited by the rules from going
washing during books" he
and his companions decided to
take dip in the surf before reach
ing the school house, which stands
near the Gulf beach. Bathing
suits were not needed in the isol-
ated spot where the notion enter
ed their heads.
After a refreshing bath, they
rushed out to dress, when to their
horror and sorrow, they found
Jcsse's new suit, his pipe and to-
bacco all in ashes. He had
thoughtlessly left his lighted pipe
lying amongst his clothes and the
sea brcezes had famed up flame.
Now it would not do to proceed
on to school in his birthday suit,
and there were two lady visitors
at his home-he was tempted to
spend the day in the "bullrusheS"
and slip in home under cover of
darkness, but there were millions
of mosquitoes who are no re-
specters of persons = Jessie
thought hard and fast and the
speed craze" entered into his
thoughts-away he shot for nome,
nerved to face the wimin," his
companions going ON to school.
Moral: Is it better to do your
here than hereafter, even
if you are late getting to school?

Caught 50-lb. Tarpon.

Henry Lutz of New York, who
is here on visit to his daughter,
Mrs. A. r. Slocum, was fishing
with rod and reel for shook from
the railroad dock, Thursday after
noon, when a tarpOn seized his
bait. The fish, though comparat-
lively small, put up strenuous
fight, but it did not last very long,
only about fifteen minutes, when
Mr.. Lutz brought him to the dock.
He had to have help to haul the
tarpon up on the dock. On being
weighed, the prize tipped the
beam at a little less than so
pounds.
1t is rare that tarpon are caught
here at this season Of the year.

MONEY WINNER OF SEASON
Edith Carter, Owned by J. C. Adams of
Phoenix, Wins Her Second $4,000 Purse
of Meeting Barbara D. is Other Winner
on Program

Grace Direct, from the stables of
Earl Beck and driven by her owner,
proved her class against a FIST field in
the 2:05 class pace for the $4,000

ond winning Of the week, makes her
the biggest money prformer of the
year among the harness horses. In Is
starts this season, she has won 1S
times and has never been outside the
money.
In all save the third heat, the bay
mare won handily, but in the final
mile, Beck was obliged TO drive her
hard down the stretch to head off Cal
gary Earl, second. 1t was not until
the final 10 yards of the race that
Grace Direct succeeded in showing her
nose ahead of the sorrel stud. 1t was
the fastest mile of the race and the
prettiest race of the entire meet.
Third Heat Pretty Race
Grace Direct showed plenty of re-
serve and gameness in this final heat.
Coming into the drive fully length TO
the bad, Beck sent her out to win.
Keener. behind Calgary Earl, applied
the whip in an effort to retain his posi-
ton and. although Grace Direct came
fast in a whipping drive, it did not APP
pear that she would be able to over
come the lead until within 80 yards OF
The wire. Then. with a wonderful
surst of speed, she outgamed the Roe
entry and showed 10 the front, full
head to the good under the wire. 1t

fourth round. He backed away from
his elder opponent and made Rufus do
the leading. He had rough going OF
it there is no getting around that
fact. and the best part of 1t was that
he knew it.
In the fifth round Rufus nearly
eyened ND matters and Hayden tasted
n bit of that punishment which he
had handed Rugus in the first round
Twice the big yellow boy went to the
floor. rested his knee on the canvas
and took a count variously estimated
at from two to several. Rufust was
after him hard He had regalned al
his old cunning and from there out, he
led the fighting most of the way.
The sixth round was even, with
both men evidently trying to feint the
other into an opening, but in the sew
enth Rufus came back strong and
rocked Hayden several times with
stiff right crosses. Rufus tried a
shift several times, but each time Hay
den rushed away out of danger. The
eighth round went to Hayden, but
there was little honor in it for it was
slow. The ninth saw Rufus opening
up and bringing the crowd to its feet
with his constant leading and also
connecting. Rufus was unusually
clever in this round and won it by
large margin.
Rufus Tries Hard
In the tenth, Williams tried to over
come the lead which Hayden had
gained In the first round, He tried
hard for a knockout. He shifted. He
swung for the head, but Hayden some
how or other met him at his own
game, the bell sounded with both men
going hard and then came the hush
yes it was given to Hayden. Referee
Sloane didn't hesitate very long. He
| had to do ii.
| The reason for calling off the bets
was merely because there had been a
lot of suspicious betting. Great odds
were given on Hayden. The Phoenix
Athletic club agreed that in the inter
est Of clean craftsmanship 1t was best
to take no chances and see that things
were square.
