 One the trip down, Ohls overlook Shellabarger and passed him few hundred feet down the peak. With each leap on the insecure footing, big powders were dislodged. This ac- counts for Ohls taking the lead, Shel- labarger being forced to step aside to escape the rocks. Ohls was the first to turn onto the shale slide for the progidous leaps for the Glacier creek gulch. and was practically at the bot tom with lead of several hundred feet when Shellabarger hove in sight. leaping into space and landing on the treacherous footing; almost in his wake was Eckman. Seferovich was lost to view far up the mountain, and as he approached the slide he dislodged a powder of approximately a foot in diameter, which almost upset him and caused him to hesitate for few moments, Then the youth was off like a mountain sheep, leaping great distances, and landing firm on his tired legs. Not so the leaders, each one showed the effects of falling in their torn racing suits and lacerated limbs.
 Explained the loss of his advantage as coming at the bottom of the creek gulch, where his legs seemed to give way, when Shellabarger and Eckman passed him, Eckman overcoming Shel- labarger in the cross-lots sprint for the tape. In the last squirt Howard Seferovich, although stopping to dash water in his mouth and face at the creek ate up distance at marvellous pace.
 Here he comes!" shouted the tense crowd, and it was seen to be Eckman running with free, easy strides, and as he gradually neared the finishing line the crowd spread to give him room. He crossed the line with arms outfiung and seemed to be in fairly good condition, though as he walked to one side he was seen to stagger, but quickly recovered.
 Ohls was next, and as he neared the tape he gradually slowed up, crossing the tape at a walk. Ohls wore a taut, haggard expression, it being evident that the gruelling contest had

MILFORD NOT TO OPPOSE ROAD
Agree to Let Road to RehobOth Skirt
the Town for Benefit Of Traffic


Delaware State Highway officials
are pleased with the attitude Of Mil
ford citizens concerning the proposed
shorter route to Rehoboth outside of
Milford. Several months ago many
of the merchants protested a highway
skirting Milford, fearing that it would
take business from The town. But in
thedesire to aid others in a highway
route that would expedite traits, Mil
ford citizens and business men have
agreed that it would be better, it is
stated, for the highway to skirt the
town rather than to handicap traffic
and delay it considerably by having it
pass through Milford. The highway
department has held conferences with
the Milford business men in the past
ten days and is now considering a
route that it is believed will be salts
factory even though it skirts the

Ambassador Coming to Washing
ton-Speaks Guardedly Regard

MEXICO CITY, June 4.-Ambas-
sador Sheffield and Mrs. Sheffield
will leave Mexico City tomorrow night
for Vera Cruz, whence they will sail
for New York Monday on the Ward
liner Monterey. Their journey to
Vera Cruz will be in a special car
placed at their disposal by General
Manager Holmes of the Mexico Rail
way.
Many Americans close to the Am
bassador do not expect him to re-
turn. Although he was guarded to-
day about revealing his plans, he
said he did not expect to remain in
Mexico forever. His attention again
was called to the omission of any
reference to his plans for the future
in his recent denial he had resigned
the embassy.
"Of course, / did not say / would
not resign" he said. II expect to re.
eign some day" He said he would
leave for Washington Immediately
upon reaching New York. He will
confer with President Coolidge and
Secretary of State Kellogg.

confessor to Queen Isabella. BY these
three, under the stimulating zeal of
the monks, a plan was contrived. CO.
lumbus should thoroughly canvass the
maritime section, having Palos for
center for all possible information re-

of Darkness.
Not long after his return Guardian
Juan Perez, and perhaps Pinzon also,
wrote to Queen Isabella, asking a fur
Their hearing for Columbus and his
project. The request was granted. CO.
lumbus, repeating with emphasis the
terms submitted to King John II, de-
manded of Ferdinand and Isabella a
patent of nobility, the admiralty of the
ocean, the vice-royalty and govern
ment of all lands discovered, and "a
commission of 10 per cent upon every
thing within the limits of his admir-
atty which might be bought, ex-
changed, found or gained" That, in
addition, he should demand three
caravels, to cost possibly two million
maravedis (s6,000), was by COM
parison trif1ing.
AS in 1886, so in 1892, in the month
of January, Columbus was dismissed a
second time from the Spanish court and
departed sorrowing. The royal flags
streamed from the towers of the Al
hambra, for Granada had fallen, but in
this event our Genoese took little in

and Ill, would be complied with. He
set sail from Palos August 8. 1872, at
sunrise.
Such was the start of his history
making voyage. The story of that voy-
age is familiar one-how "as the last
dim outline of the islands faded from
their sight, many of the sailors were
