BAWLS TEAM OUT
Manager Done Bush of Ambitious Chicago White Sox Has Lost None Of His Oratorical Ability.

Fort worth, Tex, April 5 P-- Donie Bush, new pilot of the ambi- tious Chicago White Sox, has lost none of his power of persuasive or atory.

The uprising was led by none other than c. Ar thur Shires, who had been elevated to number five in the batting order as a reward for his earnest atten- ton to business.

 Tn the Perigord caves of South ern France, along the course of the Vesere river, are found many caves in which are preserved in teresting relics ranging from the early to late Paleolithic This was where our first crude draw ings of the mammoth were found, sketched on ~ piece of reindeer horn by his contemporary, pri- meval man. This is of interest as background in our studies of the Alaskan mammoth Remains of those colossal animals are found in Alaska, extending from .the Boring Sea to the Yukon Territory.
 ENORMOUS TUSKS
 During travels this summer, mammoth tusks. bones, teeth were encountered on the Bering Sea, Kuskokwin, lower Yukon and the Innoko rivers. Those animals were apparently an indolent and herbi- vorouS group; they had two tusks and eight molars. four molars in the maXilla and four in the man dible.
 4YYc ward and backward in curve. :. They are usually found in frozen ground, and are inclined to check on exposure to the atmosphere: their huge grinders were lamelli- form, and likewise inclined on ex- posture, to disentegrate, dropping off in lamellas. Those lamellas are arranged tranversly, and wear down flat by use, most likely to resist the anterior posterior movement of the mandible in mastication.
 An almost complete skull of the mammoth was observed on the Yu- kon, this year, the upper skull, maxilla, alveolus with four molars, in place, the lower mandible being wanting. This was a noticeable spe cimen but was not obtained bel ing in the possession of a private collector As I write at present, in a remote region, nc available bibliography can be re- ferred to the reader facts only But if the reader is at all in- terested, undoubtedly, authorities on mammoth can be consulted at some convenient library.
 MINERS CREDITED
 It is claimed by miners that in the interior of Alaska, especially along the Yukon watershed, remains of the mammoth, horse, super- bison are more often found in the deep placers, the only exception was on the Kako. This is especially true at Long creek, Ruby and on In
  noko river; also, up the Nixon Fork on the Kuskokwim river. This has been a doubtful question for years among geologists. The information was obtained unsolicited from min CTS from widely separated regions -Chandelar, Innoko, Kuskokwim rivers-at Ruby, Alaska. Of the three mammoth molars secured this year, one complete specimen was mailed to Juneau, Alaska, the remainder being cached on the Kuskokwim until some future time, when facilities are available for shipment.

surface of the lake at Mccall.

moment served to renew"
Even while struggling against cold
and hunger and destitution, Gener-
al Washington was devising a new
system for the organization and per-
manence Of his forces. In his reports
to Congress he kept insisting that
his officers must have better pro-
visions, for they had begun to re-
sign, saying in effect: "You must
appeal to their interest as well as
to their patriotism. and you must
give them half-pay and fun pay in
proper measure. You must follow the
same policy with the men; you must

The terrible breakdown Of the
Commissary system came at Valley
Forge when washington was pass
ing through the darkest hours Of
his military career. He had been de-
feated at Brandywine and German
town and forced from the forts af-
ter a desperate struggle; he had
seen Philadelphia and the river fall
completely into the hands of the
enemy; and, bitterest of all, he had
been obliged to hold back from an
other assault on the British lines.
And when the enemy withdrew,
Washington was left to face again
the harsh winter and the problems
OF existence, which will be remem-
bered as one of the hardest exper-
fences ever suffered by an army.

too much for his weary animals,
two of them only pups partly train
ed, to break through.
That night man and dogs camped
at a deserted cabin, breaking thru
the pass at dawn, and reaching
their goal about noon.
Administering aid, DR.. Numbers
remained at the patients cabin un-
til the crisis passed, and then made
the long trek back to Mccall.
Two years ago DR.. Numbers made
his most spectacular trip. With the
aid of two companions he mushed
100 miles back into the wilds of cen
trail Idaho in the dead of winter to
take serum which saved the life of
a young miner. The 200-mile round
trip was made in four days.

There is no doubt but that thru
the misery and suffering of that
wretched winter, Washington felt
supremely sure of securing victory
and independence. Had it not been
for his strenuous labor and fer
vent appeals, his army would have
dissolved. He held it together and
slowly improved it. That he appre-
ciated the hardships suffered by
his soldiers is borne out in the fol-
lowing in Washington's orderly book
of March 1, 1778:
"The Commander Chief again
takes occasion to return his warm
est thanks to the virtuous officers
and soldiery of this army, for that
persevering fidelity and zeal which
they have uniformly manifested in
all their conduct. Their fortitude,
not only under the common hard
ships incident to a military lift, but
also under the additional sufferings
to which the peculiar situation of
these states had exposed them,
clearly proves them worthy of the
enviable privilege Of contending for
the rights of human nature. the
freedom Of independence of their
country. The recent instance of un-
complaining patience during the
scarcity of provisions in Camp, is
a fresh proof that they possess in
an eminent degree the spirit of SOL

| condition Of the Army, the Pennsyl-
vania Legislature demonstrated a.
gainst the army going into winter
quarters, expecting Washington to
keep to the open field, and even to
attack the British, with his starving
ragged army, in all the severity of
a northern winter. At this time, the
whole number of men in camp was
11,098, Of whom 1893 were unfit for
| duty because they were barefoot
and otherwise naked"
In making this statement to Con-
gresS, and alluding to the remon-
STRANGE of the Pennsylvania legisla-
ture, Washington said: II can as
sure those gentlemen, that it is
much easier and less distressing
thing to draw remonstrances in a
comfortable room by a good fire
side, than to occupy a cold, bleak
hill, and sleep under frost and snow,
without even clothes or blankets.
However, although they seem to
have little feeling for the naked and
distressed soldiers, I feel supera-
bundantly for them, and, from my
soul, I pity those niseries, which it
is neither in my power to relieve or
prevent"
General Lafayette, who had join
ed Washington's staff, reported that
"the unfortunate soldiers were in
want OF everything; they had Meth
er coats, hats, shirts, nor shoes;
that their feet and legs froze un-
til they became black, and it was
often necessary to amputate them. |
From want of money they could
neither obtain provisions, nor any
means of transport; the coloniaIs
were often reduced to two rations.

remained whole days
without provisions, and the patient
