She is harmless little creature in
spite of her seventeen years OF worldly
experience. And She has been
around! Probably two or three years
di her adventurous life has been spent
away from home. One could never &C
quire that painfully bored attitude to-
ward life under the protecting wing
of mother. Of course she has
travelled. one sees at glance that she
is polished and cosmopolitan, besides
if you have ever talked to her she has
no doubt, told you of the semester
she spent in "Cal.. where she used to
take in Taits or the Orpheudn or the
Dungeon or the Ferry Building at
least twice week. Her adaptability
is shown by the ease with which she
varies the story of her life-whlch
appears to be blazed with broken
hearts--to suit the occasion.
In dress, she is bit more extreme,
more daring than her sisters. Her
dresses are a little shorter, her hair
assumes more startling shapes and
colors are always on the verge OF a
clash. A lock of hair shaped some
thing like an inverted question mark
is securely "bandolined" on her fore
head and suggest careful preparation
before mirror. Her eyelashes' speak
eloquently of "Marasco" and long ex-
perience in application, for they are
perfectly beaded
To be sure her success depends, to
a large extent upon her ability to
make them convey meanings that they

The United States Geological Sur
vcy. of the Department of the Interior,
often finds that INSCRIPTIONS promo
tors of fraudulent mining schemes
pretend to be connected with the
Government service. Such a man in
Colorado represented himself as one
of 'the eighty registered biologists
in the government service" but one of
his intended victims found, on tcle-
graphing to Washington to the Geo.
logical Survey at Washington, that
he was not among its employees and
that his name was not on the mem
bership lists of either the American
Institute of Mining Engineers, the
Geological Society oil America, the
Association of Petroleum Biologists
or any other well-known geological
society Fraudlents practices OF this
sort should be reported to the proper
State and Federal authorities, and
those who resort to them arc liable
to fine or imprisonment.

WRESTLING MATCH

New York, Jan. r. Ed (Strang-
ler) Lewis, of San Jose, CAL. success
fully defended the worlds heavy
weight catch a catch can wrestling
title here tonight by throwing Earl
| Caddock, former champion, in one
hour and thirty-five minutes. Lewis
! won with a combined head and hip
lock.
The winning fall came as climax
to one of the most terrific mat strug-
giles ever seen in the East.
Caddock appeared to be the winner
up to one minute of the finish.
After an hour and a half Of wrestl-
ing Caddock gained furnishing toe
hold; for a minute and ten seconds
he struggled to force Lewis shoulders
to the mat. The campion in agony
beat the floor with his fists and cried
aloud, but his voice was drowned III
the terrific uproar for Caddock. The
former soldier was tremendous fav-
orite with the 10000 spectators.
Twice Referee George Bottom asked
Lewis if he would quit, but twice he
refused, although is face was badly
distorted.
With last desperate effort he
kicked himself free and staggered to
his feet. leaped upon Caddock and
clampcd his famous deadly head lock
around the Iowan's face. Three times
Caddock broke the furnishing hold
staggered to his fleet, only to have
Lewis regain the grip.
On the second and third attempt
Lewis picked up Caddock bodily
threw him to the floor plunging. his
weight on top of the fast weakening
challenger
The second crash. combined with
the gruelling punishment which Cad
dock had received. left him helpless
and he collapsed on his back as the
referee slapped Lewis. the winner.
When Lewis rolled off of Caddock
the latter lay like dead man on the
floor and when his manager and 9TH
ers scrambled into the ring to his
assistance it was all they could do to
lift him to his feet. A chair was
placed beneath him in the middle on
the ring but he rolled to the floor
again and call was made for doc
tor
This drove the crowd to a frenzy
Tor Caddock had been cheered Justify
throughout the evening while Lewis
was steadily booed. Cries of kill
the murderer" went TIP and there was
concerted rush for the ring. Cad
ock's manager waved the excited
wrestling fans back and when Cad :
dock was seen to recover and walk to
his corner, danger OF a riot passed.
At the beginning of the match, the
weights were announced as Lewis 22s
and Cadock 1873 pounds.
From that point until the end OF
the battle Caddock was almost con-
tinuously the aggressor. Lewis gain
ed his first head lock AFTER ten min.
utes but Caddock slipped out before
pressure could be applied and retaliat-
ed with an arm lock after IS minutes.
which Lewis finally broke by an
almost supcr-human effort.
Cadock's cat-like cunning repeat
cdIy foiled Lewis efforts to get a
head hold. At the end of hal
hour Lewis nearly lost the match when
Caddock forced his shoulder to the
| mat with kale-Nelson.

DEER PARK, Nd, Sept. THE
newspaper correspondent In the
West Virginia University football
training camp who sends out a
story attempting to pick a lineup
for the Mountaineer football team
In advance Of definite announce
ment from Fat" Spears himself is
going to incur the animosity Of the
new West Virginia tutor.
Spears is going to pick his line
up from game to game and the
mere fact that an individual Is Sc
lected for the opening contest, or
for the first scrimmage, or even for
the Pittsburgh conflict signifies by
no means that he has q berth for
the season, because Spears has
stated that new season Is going
to start every Monday.
Spears has a lot OF eager work
ers here in camp and when he gets
back to Morgantown there is going
to be most thorough canvas to
try and bring out at least one hun
bred additional men for football.
These will, of course, be largely
men qualified only for the Fresh,
men or Scrub squads, but in num-
bers there is strength and perhaps
men will be picked up who before
the season is over will be real as
sets to the Varsity itself.
Spears Is not an enthusiast fol-
the newspaper man who boosts in

near Centerville emphasizes the danger of tres
passing on railroad tracks. Many of the acct
dental deaths on railroad tracks are due to the
carelessness and negligence of persons who use
the tracks as short cuts or as highways.
A railroad track always is potentially danger
Gus to a pedestrian Tracks the paths OF
trains and are not designed for pedestrian pur-
poses. The pedestrian has no right to walk on the
railroads property, and if he is injured or killed
has no one to blame but himself.
Many railroads, realizing that the public is
lax in it's regard for personal safety, have car
ried on intensive campaigns of warning. They
have erected signs telling pedestrians of the
danger of walking on the tracks. They have
published figures showing the large number of
persons who have lost their lives or have been
permanently disabled by ignoring the warning,
and yet thousands of persons daily make side
walk out of the tracks and needlessly jeopardae
their lives.
Appalled, at the number of automobile acct
dents on crossings, the Pennsylvania company,
for instance, has instructed its crossing flagmen
to take the numbers of automobiles whose driv-
ers rush across the tracks without looking to see
if a train is approaching. Then cards are mailed
to volators of one of the first rules of safety.
A human life is regarded as priceless pos
session, but sometimes wonder it many per-
sons really place any value on their lives.
