price cheap.
Manchester recently telephoned
Miss Clara Snyder, his sweetheart,
who resides at Hannibal, Mo-, a dis

to ask her for both hand and heart.
Hello! Is this Clara?" asked
Manchester.
YES" came back the reply from
Missouri.
We'll, this is Arthur talking. I'm
in Oakland, California. Will you
marry me?"
This was evidently unexpected
for there was.a short pause. Then

Manchester was in Hannibal sew
eral months ago. At that time he
evidently lacked the nerve to pop
the question. With 1900 miles sepa-

Miss Snyder, before saying good

LEGION MAY GET RIFLES

INDIANAP0LIS.-The war de-
partment is now engaged on plans
for the distribution this year OF
about 10000 army rifles to the
posts of the American Legion thru
out the country. Provision was
made for the distribution of these
rifles, valued at about $4,000. 900,
by legislation recently enacted by
congress.
In addition to the loan of rifles
the bill provides for the sale to posts
of the American Legion of blank
ammunition in suitable amounts for
said rifles and further specifies
that the rifles be "obsolete or con-
demned army rifles" and that the
number distributed shall not 'eX-
coed ten such rifles to any one post. y
The posts of the American Legion
requested these obsolete rifles to
use 'in connection with the funeral
ceremonies of deceased soldiers, sail
2rs and marines, and for other post
ceremonial purposes" the uses to
uses to which the rifles are to be
put having been included in the bill.
The rifles will be stripped of bayo-
nets and other appurtenances, as
was done in the loan by the govern
ment of obsolete rifles to the high
school cadets in Washington.
No distribution can be made I'M
til some system for handling the
loan will have been devised.

Porto Rico Priest
 Deplores Dances

San Juan, Sept. IS. Present styles of dress and the newer dances are severely criticized as immodest and degrading by the Rt. Rev. William A Jones, bishop of the Roman Catholic diocese of Porto Rico, who has is- sued warning to both priests and parishoners against their demoraliz- ing influences.
 Certain of the modern dances are "mockery to shame and in reality are nothing more than bait to sensual ity,' in the opinion of the bishop while the style of the day in wom- en's dress, he warns, should not be used to exhibit nakedness."
 Priests are advised that they may not organize dances for church bene- fits, according to instruction from the pope, while they may not attend festivals organized by lay members of their congregations where danc- ing is indulged in.
 The bishop gives his views on dress and dancing in an eccelsistical letter addressed to both priests and mem brs of the church in this diocese and published in the official church bulletin.

 Brooklyn won from Pittsburgh and gained a half game as New York and Cincinnati split a double header The Superbas have only to win four games out of seven to place the pen nant beyond New York's grasp, and three out of seven to make it inn possible for Cincinnati to reach the top. a
 In the American League both Chi cago and New York put faith in the Cleveland Chicago series beginning Thursday. The white Sox expect to overcome the Indians lead and the Yankees feel sure that they would keep pace with Chicago by taking the Washington series and making the race an even closer one. If the In- dians win half of their 12 remaining games the White Sox would have to win six out of nine to tie them and the Yankees seven out of eight.

 In the American League, Chicago, Boston and Cleveland set good pace for several weeks. The Red Sox and White Sox fell back, however, while New York slugged it's way to the top and in midJune it seemed as though the Yankees and Indians would fight it out between themselves The White Sox recovered. and got back into the struggle when the two leaders slumped and went into first place last month.

South Africa to
 Hold German Land

Capetown, Sept. 18.-Prosperity of Germans to the value of 9,OOO,0O0 pounds is to be retained by the South African government as a loan repay able in 30 years. This intention of the government was announced today in the South African House of As sembly by the Premier, General Shuts.
 He explained that enemy assets 'held by the custodian of Enemy Prop erty in South Africa totalled 13,O0O,- 900 pounds of which 3,000,000 pounds had already been paid out to Ger mans domiciled in South Africa. Of the remaining 10,000,000, one mil ion pounds would be temporarily ap- piled in satifaction of debts or for property in Germany sequestrRted by that government.
 On the balance of 5000, ,0O0, the gov ernment of South Africa has decided to pay interest at per cent, rals= ing the total to 10,000,0OO pounds, which will then beheld by South Af- rica as loan from the German own- CTS for a term of 30 years, the gov ernment paying owners 4 per cent in terest.
 Premier Shuts added that the gov ernment did not propose to pay this money to the Preparation Commission, which would practically mean confis- cation. As. there was no guarantee that if the money was sent to Ger many it would ever reach the prop CT owners, he said, it had been de- cfded to take it over as stated, name ly, as loan.
