of the sacrifices she has made for

hours of sickness, or need, or dis,

BULL FIGHTS
 LAUGHED OUT
 IN OLD MEXICO

MEXICO CITY, April 26 (by Asso- ciated Press). - A question serious ly considered here is whether bull. fights are to be laughed out of Mexico through the introduction of the "toros bufos" (comical bullfights). Serious chroniclers of the Mexi. can amusement are concerned by the fact that company of Spanish buf. foons has just finished series of comic fights here with record at. tendance and attracting almost as much interest as the serious conflicts in which the best matadors in the game have appeared.
 They were further agitated when six girls announced themselves as 'toreadorasp and, on Sunday after. noon, succeeded in dispatching six bulls while their clown companions amused the crowd with antics bur, lesquihg every bullfighter known to the game.
 What is to become of the noble sport of bullfighting," inquired one writer, If, first of all, clowns are allowed to make it appear ridiculous and then senoritas are permitted to enter the arena and attempt a show of skill?"
 American visitors to Mexico gen. erally find more enjoyment in the comical fights than in the regular games. In the former no horses are used although the bull is eventually killed. The fighters, who display much skill and athletic ability, per, form all sorts of grotesque stunts with the animal before he is dis patched.

FUEL OIL CUSTER

BUENOS AIRES, April 26 by As sociated Press).-The first big gush- CT, among the oil wells in the govern ment field at Comodoro Rivadavia has just been brought in with an esti- mated product of 25,OOO barrels a day. Previous wells in that ditsrict had been small. As this new one is in a new part of the field it is thought that this may mean Argentina is entering on an era of large pro- duction. The oil is heavy as is the other oil so far produced at Comodoro Rivadavia, and is of little use except for fuel.

JORDAN MAKES FAST TRIP TO
 NOME SECTION

Completing the 1,6O0 mile journey over the winter trail from Seward in the fast time of 34 days, United States Marshal K. R. Jordan arrived in Nome from the outside behind his team of speedy Siberians after an extended visit in the states commencing last fall says the Nugget. Accompanied by Mrs. Jordan, Marshal Jordan departed for the outside on the last steamer in October and during the early winter visited New York, Washington, and other eastern points, in addition to spending some time on the coast. Mrs. Jordan did not accompany the Marshal on his trip to the east hav- ing decided to stay at Duluth until spring. The return journey to Nome commenced on Jan. g when departure from Seattle was taken. On arrival at Seward, the marshal encountered a two day delay owing to the somewhat desultory operation of the railroad line from Seward to Talkeetna, which is now the rail head point of the south ern section of the road. Up to this point, Marshal Jordan made the trip manager of the Alaska Mines Corpora tion, who was also bound Nomeward. MT. Miles remained at Talkeetna to await the arrival of Richard Lisson, also formerly connected with the Alas ka Mines Corporation, the latter hay ing been delayed in leaving Seattle. On arrival at Talkeetna, Marshal JOr dan at once took to the trail heading for Nenana and the Yukon. Marshal Jordan states that the incomplete gap in the railroad line between Talkeetna and the Nenana extension is about 97 miles wide at present. The route of his journey lay along the Susitna val ley to Broad Pass, thence along the upper reaches of the Nenana river to Nenana. Travelling was exceedingly
 
 being heavy and deep all the way In fact heavy trails were incounterCd over a major portion of the journey and smooth travelling was rare until the Boring coast was reached. After short stop at Nenana, the marshal headed down the Yukon, without visit ing Fairbanks, which lies some dis tance to the eastward. Severe cold weather was encountered on the river, the temparture running between 40 and 50 below zero throughout the trip Unalakleet was reached February 13, and the intervening distance to Nome was covered in seven days, with excel lent travelling conditions prevailing practically all the way.
 During his stay in the east, Marshal Jordan says he ran across a consid- erable number of Nome people. No Alaskans were seen in Washington during an extended and very pleasant stay in the capital city, the politicians not having arrived there up to that time. On leaving Washington, the mar shal proceeded to New York, where he ran across, Alaskans almost daily. Among the number recalled were E. E. Powell, Jas. Kelliher and James Fraw ley. Questioned regarding conditions as they appeared to him, Marshal Jor- dan said everything appeared to be fine. Prices were showing a steady lowering tendency and industrial con- ditions were apparently much improv- ed. Questioned regarding the Alaska political outlook since election, he de- clined to express any opinion, stating that he is not in politics.

Polo Grounds. Not since the sensa-
tional days of Charley Barrett has tho
Ithaca University had an eleven of such
weight, power, height and scoring abil-
ity. In four out of the five games played
and won to date the initial lineup has
been identical and in the other there was
but one change.
The combination which has been car
rying the colors of Cornell all season fully
measures up TO the standards of the
big Red Teams" of the past. Six of
the eleven regulars are feet or more
in height and the remaining five are
within an inch or so of this mark. Civ
ing an average of a trifle over feet
for the entire team. The lightest man
weighs over 160 pounds, and several OF
the linemen tip the scales at close to
200 pounds. Wilson Dodge of Cleveland
Is the giant of the team standing feet

Speed is quality which is marked in
these young giants, for the records show
that the eleven has been scoring at tho

Cornell has had a total of 2SS minutes
of play in five games and in that time
has rolled up an aggregate of 298 points,

coach in America. and one which will

The whole fault at Cornell was with
the Green line. and especially at centre
and guards. Dartmouth was unable to
withstand the continuous attack of the
Cornell backs aimed every time at the
heart of the line. and for this reason
weakened and fell with a crash in the
second half. While there is not much
good line material available at Dart
mouth this year the coaches are sure
the men can go better than they did
against Cornell and all efforts will be
made during the next two weeks toward
bringing this reserve powe. to the front.
