Famous Indian Who Termed Down King Is
Dropped BY Minor League Club.

Jim Thorpe, the only Indian
who ever turned down a king, and
whose name was one to conjure
with q few years ago, is headed
down the decliyity Of oblivion, as
an athlete.
As an athlete, there was none
greater than Thorpe in his day.
He shown brilliantly at Carlisle, at
the Olympic and in baseball dia-
monds and athletic fields of FIVE
continents. He was commanded
by the court chamberlain to APP
pear before King Gustav of
Sweden after he had been pro-
claimed greatest of all athletes.
Jim was reclining on board the
Finland, the floating palace of the
American competitors, when the
functionary appeared. He in
formed that horrified parsonage
that he was perfectly comfortable
where he was. " He. had friends
between decks and more OIL shore.

aqua vitae had a pleasurable po-
tency. &. ..af .,- -. .

The latest in feelers has been

announces that he may file and
this was followed with an indorse-

throughout the Ninth district, ("

he is the logical candidate to enter
the field during the approaching
campaign. If he should decide to
enter the contest, it is certain that

BISHOPS DIFFER.

Attitude of the Church Temperance
Society urging modification of the Vol
stead act is the sermon theme OF many
prelates and prominent rectors in Prot
estant Episcopal pulpits with widely
conflicting views expressed.
Bishop Charles Fiske, of the diocese
of Central New York, denounces the
Volstead act as discriminatory and
producing worse drinking conditions
among young people than ever before,
with evasion of the law regarded as a
joke and temperance progress losing
the ground gained up to ten years ago.
In the Cathedral of ST. John the
Divine, in New York City, Bishop Will
lam T. Manning opposed modification
emphatically and declared any political
party inserting a wet plank in it's plat
form at this time would sign it's own
death warrant.
Enforcement efforts by the coast
guard are praised highly by Rev. Hart
ley J. Hartman. pastor of the Metho-
dist Church of Sea Cliff, Long Island,
who described his recent trip with 9TH
err ministers to Rum Row.
Rev. DR.. Percy Stickney Grant, for
mer rector of the Church of the Ascen-
sion, New York, scores the temper
ance societys move and asserts ST.
OO0,000,000 has been saved to the Ma
ton by prohibition.
