 The announcement was made here a few days ago that five members of the baseball club that showed New York fans some classy work are wanted by the big leagues.
 Big Offers
 Two of them, Paul Mooney, the great pitcher. and Cookie" Hama ford. one of the fastest first basemen ever seen in action, have been offer Ruppert and Huston to play with the Yankees.
 One of the tenets of the House of David is not to cut the hair or beard, so the team presents weird appear ance on the field, but they play mighty swift brand of baseball in spite of their foliage.
 Weird Remarks
 When they played at the Bronx oval here recently cries of LOOK out for your beard, oP top, they'll trip you up," and Watch him, umps; he's trying to get his whiskers hit by the ball." were heard.
 Mooney looks about as good as any pitcher in the big leagues today. He has speed, inimitable control, and is a good batter besides. Hannaford is a "wiz" on first sack and seems able to get them no matter how high they are or how wide.
 Covers Ground
 He is over six feet tall and covers half the way between home and first and first and second with no trou- ble at all. It is said he has been of fered $30,000 by the big leagues.
 The team is now on a barnstorm- ing tour of the east and will then re-

AMERICAN MARKsMEN WIN

BEVERLOO, July 29. America won at least one of the seven events in the Olympic rifle matches today and apparently has been placed in several others. The results are un- certain because of the large number of entrants. and the delay in tabular- ing the scores.
 Out of 14 teams the American sharpshooters were first in the team match of 300 metres, lying down with score of 2S9 out of a possible 300. France was second with 2S3 and Switzerland third with 2S1 Norway and Finland tied at 270.
 In the team shoot at 300 metres, standing, Denmark was first with 265; Sweden second, 255, and Amer. ica third, 253.

Business Welcomes Radio Circuits.

With the new radio circuits in ep-
GRAFTON between America and the far
East, it is comforting to know, even
if one has infrequent occasion to COM
municate with Japan, Hawaii and the
Philippines, that the nev service Is
considered quite reasonably inexpen-
sive. One may communicate with Ma
Mia from the California stations for
6 cents word, and with Hawaii for 3.
Even if the rates were higher, how
ever, the new circuits would be well
coined by American business interests,
for the development of trade, as well
as the transmission of news, has been
seriously Handicapped by lack of facilf-
ties for communication. The United
States will get better news service
in consequence, do more business, and
may feel also, according to naval Of
ficers, that the national defense sys-
tenn has been strengthened at weak

FOUND NEW LAND OF GOLD
New York Mining Man Reports Rich
Discoveries Made in the Mines
Of Colombia.

A new gold region has been discov-
cred in Colombia. according to ]. v.
Priest, a mining man, who arrived at
New York from Santa Marta, Colon
bia.
Mr.. Priest said that some time ago
he was told by a Frenchman, who said
he was a government employee, Of
fabulous wealth that lay hidden in the
mines of Colombia. Mr.. Priest, ac-
companied by his wife and G. l..
Logue, a mining engineer, visited
Colombia recently and spent his time
in visiting various sections.
After landing at Cartagna, Mr..
Priest said, he and his companions
went up the Magdalena river 25O miles
and disembarked, going overland
through mountainous country for IS
miles.
At the end of the journey, Mr.. Priest
said, they found vast gold fields which
had never been actively developed
because Of the absence Of the proper
machinery. He said this is accounted
for by the lack of transit facilities, it
being a most difficult matter to ship
material of any kind to this point.

Airship Construction.

Some interesting facts regarding
the work required in building large
modern airship are given in a recent
issue of the Engineer, which states
that the general problems of design
are closely allied to those of naval
architecture, although the airship de-
signer must be a highly skilled me-
chanical engineer and also must have
a knowledge of textile technology.
For the work on construction, owing
to the multiplicity Of parts required,
a very efficient shop organization Is
necessary. In rigid airship struc-
ture, excluding the machinery, there
are 10000 different parts, total
length of structural material Of
20 miles, so miles of wire and more
than 100000 rivets.

Lieutenant to Take Military Po-

A colored detachment under white
lieutenant was making its way through
the shattered territory near Dun-sur-

drive. At a crossroads it encountered
a traffic-directing M. P. who halted
the column.
'Sorry, sir,' he said to the officer in
charge. "You are not allowed up that
road. We have information that it is
about to be shelled by the enemy"
The officer carefully examined his
orders. my instructions read differ
emily" he declared. II cannot be-
lieve that this is the road to be
shelled. Have you any verifcation?"
At this moment a shell burst within
a hundred yards, tearing up the eartn
and sending debris flying in every d.
rection. The entire landscape was OBJ
liberated, and a dead silence, broken
only by the crash of falling stones, en-
sued. Then, out Of cloud Of set

PADEREWSKl AT THE PIANO
Description of Great Masters Playing
Welt Called Gem IF HuneF-
Gus Composition.

The death recently Of Ed H. Smith
recalled the humorous editorials which
made his little newspaper, the Chula
News, noted The one which first
drew attention to it follows:
1--WE heard the Polander, PadereW-
ski, play the piano in Kansas City last
night The fellow is deceitful. He
makes you think all the time that ne
is going to play a tune, but he never
does. He f1irts all around tune, but
never touches it. His hair looks like
wig, but it isn't. He deceives you
in hundred ways. He makes the
sweetest sounds you ever heard that
were not a tune He has his piano
so trained that the doggone thing will
keep right on playing when he is not
touching it. He reaches out slowly
and strokes it, drawing back his ell
bows like man brushing girls hair.
You see the moonlight and you're
there with your girl, but somehow she
don't love you. We know the sorrow
of that. and that's why we don't like
Paderewski. There are troubles
enough in the world without hearing
Paderewski. A man don't want to
feel like he had thrown the mutilated
remains of his grandmother in the
sewer. If this is Paderewski's last
visit to America we're glad Of it. But

Will Use Rifles of Veterans.

Rifles that were actually used by
United States marines against the
Huns in France at Belleau wood,

who never saw fight when the big
job just begun at the marine corps de-

All the rifles used by marines in
France have been turned in at the de-
pot to be refnished and repaired. So
we'll did their bearers care for them
that most of them can be used again.
When they come out of the gunshop
as good as new they will be issued to

USE DOGS AS sMUGGLERS
Animals Aid Illicit Dealers in Bring
ing Liquor and Drugs Into the
United States.

Training dogs to smuggle NQuor
across the Rio Grande river is the
latest device of ingenious MINDS OF
those who make a living by means
of illicit importation to the United
States of liquor and drugs. Ihat IN
novation in line running came TO hghl
at Ell Paso, Tex. recently when
Mexican river guard shot "oos
smuggler'' in the act of swimming the
Rio Grande with four bottles OF
tequila, a Mexican liquor Of cactus
distination, tied across his back.
The dog, as the story Of the serv-
ice to his master is told by Onlteo
States customs men, had been max
ing nightly trips between Juarez and
Ell Paso with contraband goods Tor
several months. The strange, but
regular. actions of the animal first
were noted by customs officers about
two months ago. Beginning at two
O'Clock in the morning, the dog would
begin his operations. Signal lights
flashed by confederates in the gang OF
smugglers stationed on each side OF
the river always preceded the dogs
trip across stream. Dashing out Of
cluster of squalid adobe houses along
the Mexican side of the river, the anf-
NAL would plunge into the Rio Grande
with his load.
Emerging on the American side, the
''smuggler" always was successful IN
eluding pursuers, who often sought to
lasso the dog, being loath to shoot an
unsuspecting law violator.
