BISHOP BLAKE DENIES
SOVIET ENDORSEMENT
Methodist Church Not Committed

He Says.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 14.-Bishop Ed
gar Blake of the Methodist Church in
a letter today to the Christian Ad-
vocate. organ of the Methodist
Church. denied that he had at any
time Endorsed or given his support to
the soviet government.
Il did not indorse the soviet gov
eminent nor did I commit the Meth
odist Episcopal Church to it's support
In any way whatsoever" he declared.
THE present form of government in
Russia and the means and methods
used for its support do not approve,
and have not at any time, or In any
way Endorsed or given them my sup
port.
The report that said 'Tikhon has
lost the game and must pay the PEN
atty has not the slightest truth in II.
The only interviews l had in Russia
or elsewhere regarding the patriarch
were with the representatives of the
soviet government with whom I inter-
coded in the patriarch's behalf. and
with certain leaders Of the council,
whom l urged to use their influence
to prevent any personal harm coming
to Tikhon."

For the moment prohibition OFF,
cials have diverted some of their
attention away from rum runners and
wet Atlantic liners and are prepar-
ing to overhaul the regulations re-
lating to cider.
An announcement from the prohi-
bition bureau last night said that the
fruit-juice regulations ARE now un-
der revision and will be issued in
the near future Officials would add
no details. but by way of preliminary
advice the bureau gave out the sub
stance of a legal opinion on the sub
chief counsel The statement was
in the form of primer and was
supposed to make perfectly clear
when, IL ever, 1t is permissible to
have on hand hard cider, and why.
1t follows:
Definition of Cider.
The word cider. shall mean the
expressed juice of whole. fresh.
sound. ripe apples. exclusive of any
extraneous or forei gn matter and
without regard to the fermentation
or alcoholic content thereof. unless
otherwise indicated by the context,
Sweet cider is the freshsjuice OBJ

holic fermentation is prevented or

dition Immediately upon pressing or

as bottles or jugs.
When 1t Is Vinegar.
1.-The presence of 4 per cent of acetic
acid will be considered as constituting
the article vinegar and the presence
OF as much as 1E per cent of acetic
acid will be considered vinegar stock
Other acetic solutions of similar
strength made from malt, etc. shall
also be considered to be vinegar or

sentative of his inelegant race at the
Zoo. He Is about nineteen years old,
toothless aud moth-eaten. Combin-
ing the worst points Of the hog and
the wart. II he Is considered from
the standpoint of a wart. he's
poor hog. and II you look at him as
a hog, he's an exceptional wart.
The artisans who nodded animals
way back must have been drinking
squirrel whisky when this chaps an
cestors came up for production.
Warty was the result. Such an ami
mai has never been duplicated In
time. or space. He Is fit only Tor
treason, stratagem or spells, or to
scare children with.
Warty. however. possesses hu-
man aspect. When he first arrived In
our city. back in 1911. he was hor-
to work on him. Warty would get a
rundown and massage daily, and ne
seemed to know that the queer actions

ointment was applied and without
protest would roll over on his back.
He completely surrendered himself
to their care and in short time
he was cured.
One Tusk Broken.
But look at him today. He certainly
lacks symmetry. He Is in possession
of deformity. Disagreement, inconcin-
nifty, distortion and. sad to relate, has
vinegar aspect. His two tusks that
protrude east and west from under
his upper lip and snout and curve to-
ward the north are not even intact
one Is, broken off about three inches
from the end. He hooked 1t in an iron
bar one day. and got so mad he
stamped around like the wild bull
from the Pampas," and when he found
himself free he was minus about 81
worth of genuine ivory.
Little eyes, with the appearance of
being mounted in tiny platforms, stick
out from the upper part of his face,
and Immediately below them are two
extraordinary warts. Separated by a
few inches of sandpaper-like skin
type. Then the nostrils, tusks and
snout.
Doesn't Care Any More.
Stringy hair draped in spots over the
course mud-colored body augments
his appearance. The hair on his head
is unkempt, and the old boy allows II
to hang down over his eyes and any
way II chooses to fix itself. He don't
seem to care now about improving his
looks He is a perfect specimen of a
person who has no hope. no ambition.
no future Not even the overworked
Coueism has had any effect on him.
So be kind to Warty the next time
you see him. If necessary drop tear
out of sympathy for his condition.
Then when you leave the cage you
will know you have something to be
thankful for.

The entire crew was loaded down-with camp outfit and the number of rabbits minus quantity. The hunting must have been good, it being stated that after the second day out Chef UrQu- hart was compelled to come to town and secure about ten pounds of fresh beef to tide the crew over until the time came to break camp. Rabbit tracks are not very filling; they do not even make good soup, so state some of the party. Whether numbers or the arsenal scared the rabbits out of the Bear lake section, will never be known, for no rabbit could be found 10 be interviewed as all tracks were headed for the tall and uncut timbers of the mountainside.
