POINT STRAINED. BUT
ROYAL ETIQUETTE WON

ATHENS, April 21.-King Constan-
tine is causing the Chief of the Pro-
tocol Service a deal of trouble and
giving him many sleepless nights. At
any official or public function the
Protocol Service is hard. pressed to
find means Of having Constantine
present as well as members of the
Diplomatic Corps.
Since he returnedNto Athens from
exile many countries, including France
and Great Britain, have refused to
recognize him. Other countries, most
~ neutral during the war, have recog-
nized Greece's King.
Recently mass was celebrated for
Pope Benedict XIV, to which the Dip
lomatic Corps was invited, as well as
the royal court. The Protocol Service
for several days could not think out
way of having both present without
ch'iging them to meet each other The
King, in order to reach his seat, had
{ to pass before the Diplomatic-Co Corps.
A means of avoiding the meeting was
found by the erection of huge screen
between the diplomats and the King.
Once seated the King could see the
ambassadors, and to those whose
countries had recognized him he bow
ed in salute and the ambassadors an
swered.

Funny Stunts
Among Champs
Over The Water
BY HENRY L. FERRELL.

| Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.
NEW YORK, April 21.7-(United
Press).-While Europe is joining the
anvil chorus in razzing Johnny Kill
bane, the featherweight champion.
some funny stunts are being pulled
among the continental featherweights
that even the resourceful Irishman
hardly would attempt.
The European championship. ac-
cording to London papers, changed
hands recently without a blow being
struck and then changed back again
after a few verbal hooks and crosses
Eugene. Criqui. the French cham
pion, challenged Arthur Wyns, the
Belgian and European champion, six
months ago. Criqui set the date and
made all the arrangements without
hearing word from Wyns. The APP
pointed hour to weigh in for the fight
came and Criqui went through the
ceremony Wyns was not there. The
scheduled hour for the fight arrived
and Wyns did not show up. Thereup-
on, Criqui, claimed the title by default
and the French boxing federation sup
ported the claim.
| Any champion. according to the
rules Of the International Boxing Fed
GRAFTON, must accept challenge from
a bona fide challenger within six
months after the challenge is issued
1 Criqui had the rules behind, but he
acted hastily in claiming the title be-
fore his case was heard by the Inter.
national federation.
| British fight circles laughed at the
procedure and the Belgfans wanted tc
call out the kings royal troops to
avenge the wrong. Wyns and his
manager, however, said they had not
thought that Criqui was Serious in
wanting a fight, but If he really was
bent on battle they would accommo-
date him.
| Criqui, seeing that he had made an
unpopular step, told the French Fed
Grafton that he had not intended to
claim the title that the rAles gave him
and that his friends had become over
Jealous, or something like that.
The fight probably will he held be-
tween June 20 and July IA. If Wyns
should not come through now, he
probably will be ruled out from under
This crown.

Buffalo Arrives.

"Oklahoma Frank" the buffalo sec
ured by Congressman Frank Clague
for Ramsey State Park, has been
shipped from his happy home in The
National Game Preserve in Oklahoma
and will arrive in Redwood Falls soon.
Auditor R. P. Chase in speaking with
the chairman of the park committee
regarding this buffalo, expressed his
pleasure in having this animal made
a future of the State Park here and
his satisfaction that Mr.. Clague was
able to secure it for the state. Mari
on Johnson, superintendent of the
Park, had many years ago a very
thrilling experience with a herd of
about five hundred buffalos near the
Dakota line, and in view of what is
coming. he is brushing up his recollec-
lions of this experience, thinking that

sessedso of all the gentle and consider
ate qualities which his name implies.
Later: The buffalo has arrived
and is recuperating from his long
journey in quarters at the Schaffer
barn where he will be kept until the

having been allowed to run on the

Delinquent Tax List.

The official publication of the de-
linauent tax list for Redwood county
appears in this issue of The Messeng-
err. The list contains about 975 de-
scriptions and is the largest list of
tax delinquents published in recent
years at least, if not the largest list
which the county ever had. Last
year the list contained about 400 de-
scriptions so that the present publica-
tion is about two and a third times
larger. 1t is thought that the extra
large number Of unpaid taxes is due
to the business depression of last year,
In numerous cases where purchases of
property assumed that they would
not be able to meet the conditions of
the sale and that the property might
revert to the former owners taxes
were left unpaid, in some cases they
could not be met, in other cases there
is dispute over ownership or under
while of courses not few
delinouencies were due to neglect or
oversight. 1t is interesting to note
that the number of delinquent taxes
is about evenly divided between farm
and village property.-Morgan Mes
