JAKE STALLS TREE A
LIVING MEMORIAL
TO DEAD ILLlNl HERO

Urbana, Ill-G. J. ("Jake') Stahl,
famous manager of the Boston Ameri-
cans in 1912, president of the Wash
ington National bank in Chicago and
hero of the world war, who died in
Los Angeles. has.one monument which
he created himself and which college
tradition has preserved.
Back in 1903 Illinois and Michigan
met on Illinois field for the confer
ence championship. Michigan had n
slight edge on the Illinois nine and
appeared to be an easy winner until
Stahl, who was catching for Illinois,
drove the ball high over the center
FEEDERS head into the branches of
young elm tree growing at the north
end of what is now the football field.
The bases We're full at the time.
Since then the tree has been carefully
preserved by students and is known
as Jake Stahl's tree.
His death called to the attention
of Illinois stadium officials a problem
which they had not previously con-
sidered. What is to be done with
Jake StahPs tree? The new stadium
will be at least a mile from the old
field and the tree is now too large to
be easily moved. Students and alum
nj will never consent to abandoning
the tree with the field and everyone
agrees that something must be done.
1t is possible that branch from the
old tree will be planted in the new
memorial stadium.

Yellowstone Park, Wyo., Sept, 20
The American antelope is threaten

ficials here of the department of the
interior. Unless extensive protec-
tive measures are taken, official de-
clared, an animal widely admired for
its coloring, delicate proportions and
zephyr like movements, soon will be
aseen only in museums.
There are probably not more than
5000 antelope remaining u the Unit
ed States, according to a statement
and the total number in the park is
about $50. In 1908 the number was
estimated at 1000.
i The cause OF the antelope has been
taken up by the American Bison soci-

TO consider program to protect an
telrpe Proposed measures include
provision for an adequate winter
range for Yellowstone herds. and for
herds remaining in Oregon, Neyadta
idaho, Wyoming, Utah and Colifor'
mia.
Last winter nearly a third OF the
Yellowstone Park herds were lost as
a result of heavy SHOWS and depre-
dations OF coyotes. wolves and mount
tain lions. A part of this loss was
made up by birth of the young this
spring.
The most serious menace to their |
preservation here is the absence of
suitable winter range, according to
these. officials. Besides running the
risk of starvation, owing to scant for
age if the SHOWS are deep. they are
easy prey for predatory animals.
The possible winter range for an
telopes here at present is about s.
900 acres, which must be shared with
the deer, elk and other grazing ami
mails. The summer range covers
about 100000 acres
Park authorities will withdraw part
of the summer range from tourist use
next season. as the presence of tour
lists is said to keep the nervous ami
mails on the qui vive and to interfere
with breeding.

The House did have a six
weeks recess to devote to re-
pairing its fences, but the
Senate has been continuously on
the job, so 1t was on the cards
that the members of the Upper
House would break away the
moment that the adjournment
was announced. Many of them
have campaigns of their own on
their hands, others are prepared
to participate in the campaigns
of their friends; and from now
on until after the first Tuesday
after the first Monday in
November there1l be but one
topic of conversation-politics.
WITH the bonus and the tariff
out of the way, there still
remains the Presidents ship
subsidy project to be disposed OF
by this Congress and the
present plan seems to be to call
an extra session along about
November Is to deal with it.
That seemed better to the powers
that be than to keep Congress
chained to Capitol Hill with
elections staring IL in the face,
for by November Is the race
will be over and members OF
both houses will be able to set
tie down in peace and with q
quiet mind to the business Of
devising legislation.
The regular session of Congress
begins the first Monday in Decem.
ber next and will end on March 4,
1923. Then, unless the President
should call an extraordinary ses-
sion, Congress will not be sitting
until December of the following
year and the Congressionals will
have an eight months vacation.
This, however, is by way of being
a vain dream. for the business of
Government seems to require all a
mans time nowadays and one
extra session has followed another
until we have almost forgotten the
original scheme of alternating
short and long sessions.
A LTHOUGH not up for re-elec-
ton, Senator James w.
Wadsworth jr., was one of the first
of the Senators to leave Washing
ton. He has a grist of speaking
dates in New York State and is
also scheduled to go campaigning
in Massachusetts, and New Jersey.
Senator Medill Mccormick also
made a flying start, prepared at a
moments notice to throw himself
into the thick or the campaign in
Illinois, while Senator Frederick
Hale, with his troubles behind him,
is enjoying brief vacation in
Maine before being drawn into the
fight.
Senator Hale is at present with
his mother, Mrs. Eugene Hale,
who has the distinction Of being
the daughter of a Senator and the
widow OF Senator, as we'll as the
mother of a Senator. She is at
her home, in Portland, after having
spent few weeks at Bar Harbor
In midsummer. and proposes to
linger on there until the late
autumn, probably not returning to
her Sixteenth street residence until
after the elections.
Mrs. Wadsworth and pretty Miss
Evelyn Wadsworth are at the
Wadsworth farm at Mt. Morris.
N. Y, and will stay on there until
October certainly and probably
until after elections. And the
Senator will join them there when
he can. They-Mrs. Wadsw6rth
and Miss Evelyn, with young
Jerry Wadsworth for escort

week in New York. but returned
TO Mt. Morris as soon as the fes-

farms in the Middle West. and
Mrs. Mccormick managing the en-
tire business when she is at home.
I wouldn't be surprised, however.
II she, too. were drawn into the
Illinois campaign, for she's as
clever a politician as her husband,
and the good folk of Illinois and
the surrounding country have n
wholesome respect for Mark Han
mas daughter. Mrs. Mccormick
was in New York for a few days
last week.

campaigning. They hope, how
ever, to have a few weeks in the
country after the elections are
over. and Mrs. France probably
won't come to Washington until
we'll toward Christmas.
At the moment Of writing
neither Senator Pepper nor Sena-
tor Reed have made plans, but the
hustings in Pennsylvania will un-
doubtedly claim their attention-al-
though in Pennsylvania the Repub-
lican nomination is just about
equivalent to election. Senator
David A. Reed, by the way, is
coming into fame by leaps and
bounds. In studying over the
tariff bill, he unearthed an obvious
error which, through a technical
ity, was bound to work hardship
to cattle men and the dairy in
terests. He wanted a correction
made, but everybody said that 1t
was too late and that he was at
tempting the impossible. Never
theless, he did make the attempt
and by getting party leaders In
both Houses to agree to the cor
rection he managed to jam II
through. The new member of tho
Senate will thus get credit for
having brought about the first
amendment to the tariff law even
before 1t actually became a law;
and the old-timers on the Hill are
agreed that II was a considerable
achievement for a baby Senator.
Senator Reeds wife and his
daughter, Miss Rosamond Reed,
Joined him here two or three weeks
ago and they are at present oc.
cupying an apartment at the
Shoreham. They haven't yet made
up their minds whether they will
continue to make their home there
or whether they will take a house
or an apartment.
SENATOR PEPPER. by the way,
recently caused his colleagues
considerable amusement by pro
senting to Senator Pat Harrison
of Mississippi a trick donkey. An
adjustable toy, its ears. head and
tail were dropping when II was
presented and It had a most de-
jected appearance.
That's the way we made your
Democratic donkey look in Maine"
Senator Pepper told Senator Har.
rison.
The Mississippian promptly
hoisted tho ears, head and tail OF
the donkey, so that II looked
"proud.like and brayfng."
That's the way we will have
him looking In November" said
Senator Harrison.
