The pitch was high and on the out

He started his slide before Devine got
the ball and was over before the
backstop could have put it on him.
As it happened ONeil took a cut
at the ball and missed it, Devine
dropped the pill. but recovered and
tagged O'Neil for the third out,
spelling the finale of Roth's exhibi-
ton. Some of the fans thought the
run should count. as Roth scored be-

Dineen allowed as how that isn't be-

PARTIsANsHIP GONE MAD.

Never in the history of any Ameri-
can Congress has there been such an
instance of partisanship gone mad as
in the act of the Republican majority
Oh the House Ways and Means Com
mittee excluding minority members
from the conferences at which the SOL
der bonus bill was drafted. No Demo-
crat on the committe was permitted to
even know what was in the bill until it
was reported out, when, with the o. X.
of the steering committee" it was
ordered put through the house as a
strictly Republican measure. Demo-
Gratis are citizens and taxpayers and
will contribute their share of the reve-
nue. with which the bonus is paid, but
they were not even allowed to be pres
ent when the bill was drafted, much
less have voice in its preparation.
How different the attitude of the
Democrats when they were in the ma
jority during the war and consulted
and advised with the Republican mi
nority about all war measures!
Democrats and Republicans alike
fought and won the war, and Demo
Gratis and Republicans alike have a
right to voice in adjusting compen-
sation for the men who faced the foe
and wrought the victory.

DROP LIABLE IN PRICES.

The time is not far off, according to
the best information gathered from re-
liable sources, when the price of most
commodities will begin to have the
edge taken off. This was forecasted
the other day when a leading depart
ment store advertised a 20 per cent re-
duction on every article of merchan-
disc contained in the store. Last week 5
advices from London indicated that
England feared beginning of drop
in prices. The news from over there,
however, did not view the outlook with
any degree of alarm, rather the re-
verse.
Through New England also reports
are interesting, though not as reassur-
ing as one would like. In the shoe sec
lions business is perceptibly off in all
cases of shoes because the number of
sases of shoes sold this year is some
$4,000 cases below last year. This in
dicates that the general public is not
buying shoes at the present exorbitant
prices and will not. The. belief is pref
ty well established that shoe prices are
probably the most arbitrary OF any
necessary commodity on the market.
II is significant that at the very begin
ming of the sudden Use in shoe prices
one of the largest retail dealers, with
factories of it's own, placed large page
advertisements in the Washington pa
pers to attract the eye of Congress.
The charge was then made that the
prices prevailing were excessive and
the demand for higher prices having
no foundation in fact. But Congress
seldom picks up cue of this charac-
ter for the reason that influences were
unquestiOnably behind the high shoe
prices. Denials have been made time
and again on this tender point, but the
concern that put out the advertise
ment has continued to sell shoes at
far lower than prevailing prices, thus
proving it's own case. Profiteering is
apparent in the price of shoes, as in all
other necessities.

NOTED RUSSIANS
SLAIN ON YACHT
Finding of Bodies Reveals One Of
Most Mysterious Tragedies
of Black Sea.
FLED FROM The BOLSHEvIKI
On Board the Yacht Were Found A.
100000 RubIes in Gold, Paper and
devastating of Roumania Is
Pushing Investigation.

Bucharest.-The discovery on the
yacht Ostrara, stranded at Sulina in
one Of the mouths of the Danube, Of
and women, each shot through the
head, and not living person on
board, has presented to the ROumani-
an authorities one Of the most mys-
FERROUS tragedies in the Black sea.
The bodies have been identified as
sian families of Falzfein and Shadow
ski. The Falzfeins were descendants
Of German Mennonite colonists who
settled in the province Of Kherson at
the invitation Of the Russian govern
ment.
Water In the Cabin.
The discovery was made by soldiers.
who, when they went aboard the help
less yacht, found the cabin half filled
with water and the IL bodies floating
around. On board the yacht were A.
100000 rubles in gold and paper, and
jewels. Some money and valuables
were found to be missing when rec
Ords Of the victims were checked up,
but the amount was apparently small
compared to the funds and valuables
left aboard.
The elder Felzfein still grasped a
pistol in his hand when his body was
found, and whether the party commit
ted suicide or were murdered is a
question that remains unanswered,
and it is believed that the solution Of
how the families met their death may
never be known.
An investigation is being made by
the Roumanian authorities, aided by
Russian friends Of the two families.
All that is known is that the two fam
lilies fled their estates to Odessa. and
when the bolsheviki arrived there in
February put their belongings on
board the yacht, which was then towed
by Russian steamer bound for Con-
stanza.
The tow ropes broke several times,
owing to severe storms, and finally
the steamer lost the yacht altogether
and proceeded to Constanza.
Drifts At Mercy Of Storm.
It Is believed that later, while the
yacht drifted at the mercy Of the
storm, the refugees, six men and five
women, became exhausted from the
cold waves breaking over the vessel
and from lack of food.
Unable to manage the yacht, the
party made despairing effort to put
1t ashore on the desolate beach near
Sulina. There they succeeded in
launching small boats, but Roumanian
guards, under strict orders to permit
no landing through fear Of the bolshe-
wiki, ordered them to return to the
vessel.
1t appears that some coast fishermen
offered rescue when the vessel began
settling. owing to the consequent
pounding Of the heavy seas, but SOL
diers prevented. That was the last
known Of the vessel until it stranded.
King Ferdinand and Queen Marie of
Roumania have taken great interest
in the investigation, especially because
when the royal family was driven into
exile and the capital removed to Jassy,
the king and queen were offered the
magnificent home Of the Felzfeins,
across the Bessarabian border.
