BARROW INDEFINITELY
SUSPEMDS BABE RUTH

Habe Ruth was suspended indefi-
ni;ely before yesterdays game by
Manager Ed Barrow for fragrant in
fractions of training rules. Ruth
was not with the team when the
Sox made ready to take the Federal
express for home, where they will
make their domestic opening today
against the Yankees
TIE crisis of the situation has been
impending for some time, and NAV
be the result o. the mistaken idea
Ruth has that he can get away"
with the iIfraCtiouS of training rules
Barrow is too honest a manager, too
much on the level. to hold the rank
and hle OF his men to rules which
he allows a star to break with i'm
punity. Accordingly there was Moth
ing else to DO but to give Babe a
lesson and a punishment along with it,
incidentally. Ruth's play here
Tuesday was very much below par.

believe that Ruth must observe
training rules if he is to continue

SAcRAMENTAL WINES
MYSTERiouSLY DISAPPEAR

Sioux Falls, s.. D., June 24.-The
question now before the house is:
"Who got the wine?"
1t has just become public that sew
eral gallons Of wine made a puzzling
disappearing act in this city; and,
Notwithstanding officers, both railroad
and county, have been making an in
vesttgation, nc tangible leads have de-
veloped. ~ %.
1t seems hat there were three sep
arate shipments Of sacramental wine
from the Brown Drug Company to a
drug firm at Mitchell which supplies
wine for sacramental purposes to sew
eral churches throughout that section.
The three shipments Of wine were
turned oyer to the Omaha road at this
place. but that val the last trace that
car be found of any Of the shipments.
There has been no evidence obtained
to show that the wine ever left the
Sioux Falls yards. 1t was loaded in
cars here which were sealed, but the
shipments never reached their desti-
nation. Special agents OF the Omaha
roadShave spent considerable time on
h case, but they are completely baf-
fled.

the grand stability Of the capitol, was an
insurgent In religious thought while verg-

life's long afternoon had the fruitful
serenity of Grasmere vale. could recall a
period when he hailed the rudy dawn of
the French revolution. Democracies are
like men. and they nave their ~infantile
periods and their adolescent eras. When
the 10 colonies had achieved victory In the
surrender of CORVALLIS, there was much
that was raw and callow in the immature
republic. Some thoughtful men feared
the only avenue to security lay in setting
up a throne in Philadelphia within sound
OF the Liberty bell, and calling George
Washington to establish q dynasty of
kings.
This nation Is now In q ripper stage OF
young maturity. and can therefore be pa
tient with the dashing madness of some
very young democracies beyond the trou-
