We have regarded it as a plan to

SION at Boise. For a while we opened
the envelopes and looked over the
dope in the hope of finding some evil
dence Of university extension" toward
mining, but finding nothing in that
line we finally stopped opening them
and consigned them intact to the
waste basket We realized that con-
siderable paper was being wasted in
ibis extension work and that some
body was getting easy money" for
preparing the dope and mailing it out,
but it never occurred to our unsus-
pecting mind that these little dope
sheets from the press agent of the ex-
tension bureau represented an annual
expense to the state of hundreds of
thousands of dollars A few days ago
the Boise Statesman published figures
showing that from the appropriation
OF $4,000 for university extension
made by the legislature in 1911. the
amount has steadily increased until |
i'm 1919 the appropriation was SSS4.643. |
II now appears that the university
extension division had other sources
OF revenue and that the figures last
given are far below the actual amount
used during the past two years. fOn
This point the Statesman says:
ut now appears that the half
has not been told-that the uni
versity extension division has. in
fact not one but three avenues to
the public purse.
For instance the maintenance
of the extension division alone in
l919-192O cost the public $685.

the state purse, the county purses
and the federal purse. which is to /.

would also abolish the Office Of COM

SIMS STILL SILENT
ON HIS MESSAGE
Admiral Says Reply Is Between
Secretary DENLY and Himself
Contents Withheld.

LONDON, June 11.-while his re-
ply to Secretary DENLY has been for
warded by cable, Admiral Sims natly
refuses to reveal the contents OF his
message. He said simply:
1T was my duty t. reply to that
cable. That, Of course, is a matter
between the Secretary of the Navy
and myself. and I cannot make any
comment on the actual message"
Commenting on Sims's Tuesday
speech, the Pail Mall Gazette, a strong
Government organ, said:
There are few American politicians
who are not obliged to dabble in the
dirty traffic Of the Irish vote; and the
storm Admiral Sims provoked by his
candid references to that merchandise
blows from every quarter. The Ad-
miral, however. is undismayed, ana
stands by his opinion OF 'hyphenatos'
and those who curry favor with them"

on May "a.
PARENTS ARE NOTIFIED.
5 Men Were Arrested Charged
With Abduction-PubIic In

The Bureau of Missing Persons at
Police Headquarters received a tele-
phone message this afternoon from
the-police Of Pfermont N. Y, saying
that the body of a boy answering the
description of Giuseppe Varotta, who
was kidnapped May "a. had been
found in the Hudson River opposite
that town.
The boy whose body was taken
from the river was described as fol-
lows: About seven years old, three
feet eight inches, between thirty and
forty pounds, dark hair closely cut
tan sailor blouse with blue cuffs,
khaki pants, brown lace shoes and
black stockings with red sarters.
Giuseppe Varotta disappeared on
the morning of May "a from the home
of his father, Salvatore, at No. 354
East 18th Street, and his parents at
first thought him merely lost. They
reported him as lost to the police.
But on May 26 there came a letter
demanding s2,50O for his safe return.
The mother wrote a pathetic letter
Offering $500 and saying it was all
she could get The offer was ac-
cepted, she was told, and the money
in marked bills was handed over by
detectives.
Five men were arrested a few days
ago and held in s25,0OO bail each in
the Essex Market Court II was said
that their arrest would frighten
others Of the alleged band into re-
turning the boy. But days passed
and this did not occur.

noon 1t took the Kenne Memorial
with William A. and came right back
in the following event, the historic
Belmont, with Grey Lag. Both win
ners were ridden with rare judgment
by Earl Sande
AS was to be expected, Leonardo I'd
set the pace in the Belmont. He
went as far as he could, which was
70 the head of the stretch, From the
far turn Sande had begun to ride
Grey Lag and it was apparent that
nc would surely catch Leonardo I'd
As they swung for home Sande came
round Leonardo with Grey Lag and
from there to the finish just gal
loped. Passing the judges he was five
lengths in front.
Leonardo, firing fast was chai-
lenged by Sporting Blood in the final
sixteenth and was outgamed the rest
OF the way, to lose the place by a
short neck.

Rancocas Stable paid $4,000 only d

were three firing horses after racing
down the straightaway five and a half
furlonss in los 1-5. 1t was Jockey
Earl Sande which really won the race
for the Rancocas Stable. He seemed
to have more left in his arms than
Rodriguez, who rode Sweep BY.
The latter set the pace all the way
and within the final sixteenth victory
seemed within his grasp. but the colt
and jockey both seemed weak after
tiptoeing the field and just did sue
cumb to the superior finishing prowess
of Sande. William A. was an II to S
favorite and the victory was a popular
one.
Houyhnhnm was the winner of the
opening event much to the disgust Of
those who had thought the combina-
tion OF Sande and Polar unbeatable.
This pair however quit badly after
leading into the stretch and
Houyhnhnm, coming from behind,
won going away. Current Exents too
closed with a rush to be second in
front of Theodosia.

way. New Haven was third
Good as Sande's riding had been in
the two stakes, his handling of Sun
dial, the favorite in the fifth, was
atrocious. He tried to jam his way
between Dark Hill and the rail in the
stretch, was pinched off and had to
pull up. Dark Hill then came on to
win handily from Toucanet.

Peacock was helped by a rare oc-

because OF the error.
The golf played by both Peacock
and White was below Metropolitan
standard. Conceding holes was al
most habit as both finalists were
guilty of novice-like work escaping
from trouble. Peacock on the thir-
teenth especially was in bad. A sliced
drive fell in the rough, which was es-
pecialiy troublesome. The young
Cherry Valley star, after only going
30 yards in four wallops. picked up
his ball In disgust.
Because OF these frequent poor
holes the medal scores suffered. Pea
