J., July 12.—"Billy" Miske, of St. Paul, outfought "Gun boat" Smith, of New York, in all but the fifth round of a ten-round bout here to-night. In the fifth Smith landed a number of effective blows. Miske weighed in at 179 ind Smith was a pound heavier. [AROUND THE BASES Charles Dudley Daly, former star quarterback at Harvard, and later at the West Point Military Academy, has been made a lieutenant colonel in the national army on the Western front of the allied forces. Lieutenant Colonel Daly was grad uated from West Point in 1905. and a year later resigned from the army. In 1910 he became fire commissioner in Boston, his home city, and held the position until 1913, when he was re moved. He was reinstated in the army as a first lieutenant. He has since been made a captain in the na tional army. Ichiya Kumagae, the Japanese ten nis player, who holds fifth place in the rankings, is on his way to the United States. Kumagae, it is said, has been transferred from the Tokio to the New York branch of a banking firm which employs him. His playing was the sensation of the 1916 season, when he visited the United States. Reading, Pa., July 10.—The min isters of Reading decided at a big mass meeting to-day to raise a fund of JI.OOO to fight Sunday baseball, which is getting a firm hold here. The Rev. T. Y. Shelly, of Pitts burgh. addressed the meeting, and manufacturing interests of the city, which are back of Sunday ball, had Chaplain Dicklns, U. S. N., Philadel phia, speak in favor of the game. Jack Dempsey, leading contender for the world's heavyweight cham pionship. will fight Billy Mlske, con queror of Fred Fulton, at the big boxing show to be held in Madison Square Garden Monday night. This bout will be one of the features of the carnival to be conducted for the Army Athletic Fund under the auspices of the War Department Commission on Training Camp Activities. Bobby Walthour, the idol of the bicycle speedways of two continents and the hero of many a gruelling six day race, is the latest famous athlete to enlist his services for the course of the Allies and will shortly embark for France to train the French troops under the auspices of the Personnel Board of the Y.-M. C. A. National War Council. Walthour will not direct his atten tion to the American troops now in France, as was erroneously stated in vesterday'i" new. He was appointed by the Y. M. C.

"The action of the minority member I of the commission in deciding to seek j redress in the courts is little short of revolutionary. It strikes at the fun damental basis of harmonious action ! among baseball authorities.

Schwab! "If you stand up to your job, we will make the Kaiser take his medi cine lyirtg down." This sentence epitomizes the en thusiastic address by Director Gen eral Schwab of the Emergency Fleet Corporation to several hundred ship workers of the Bethlehem Shipbuild ing Corporation, in San Francisco, where Mr. Schwab saw twelve ves sels from his own yard in the district launched on July 4. • Ball players and sportsmen In gen eral say that "Charley Schwab mu4 have a head like a rake," for Imme diately after this speech he sanction ed the establishment of another baseball league in his industry, this one known as "The Gulf Coast Ship Builders Baseball League." Games are being played on Saturday after noons during July and August, and on Saturdays during July August and September. The schedule calls for twenty games to be played by each team. The following shipyards are rep resented in ttte league with clutas: Dantzler Shipbuilding Company and the Hodge Ship Company, of Moss Point, Miss., the Dlerks-Blodgett and the International Shipbuilding Com panies, of Pascagoula, Miss., the Alabama Dry Docks and Ship Build ing Company, and the Mobile Ship building Company, of Mobile, Ala Schwab handles athletas like he does everything else, with a six cylinder force. He spares no money j hear of a Harrisburg club getting j into the king row. The Yallee Club is made up of youngsters who make a very smart 1 appearance and can play the game. They took two battles from the Acad | emy, two from St. John's Reformed j and defeated the Tanks, East End i Jr's., Epworth League, Riverside, | Jr.'s, and Hershey A. C. Miehlovitz jis one of the crack amateur ! pitchers in the city and is a top j notcher all-round ball player. Nine 1 victories in eleven games is the rec ord thus far. Union Station Players Win; Challenge Any Club in City Say, isn't this Union Station team going it! Won eleven battles with out a defeat. The last victim to get in the way of the Union Station lim ited was the New Cumberland A. C. last evening 6-4, the teams playing over there. Captain E. B. Snyder had his men on the Job from the moment the .umpire called play. Snyder used his star pitcher, Et noyer like Uncle Sam taking care comet himself, banging out two hits, scoring twice and supporting Et noyer like Unkle Sam taking care of his soldiers. Rhlnehart, short stop, was a constellation, too, doing all kinds of stunts in the short field. Under Snyder, old Tri-State player, the Union Station looks to be as swell a ball club as Harrisburg sports right now. Their challenge includes anybody and everybody. Next Tuesday they play Mount St. Mary's at Steelton. New Cumberland put up a good game, with Martin and Phillips in the points, but a couple errors helped to lose the game and, besides, Etnoyer had too much on his slants. on men or machinery and according to a Steelton official Just returned from an interview with the boss he takes even a great interest in the rivet driving records having in nLs hand at the time those of the Gro ton Iron Works driven by two gangs in the yard at Noank, Conn. These records were made under ordinary working conditions and the men were not even informed that their work was being closely scru tinized. One of the gangs, con-ilst- Ing of Ch:irl9s Mulham, riveter; ?ide Simon, holder-on; Hamard Ahmed, heater, and S. Baude. passer, in five days drove 6,011 rivets, being an average of 1,202 a day. The other gang, consisting of Sa lem Zeena, riveter; Ells Lafee, hold eron; Edward Quinn, heater, and John Redding, passer, drove 5,691 rivets in five days, being a daily average of 1,138. The ganurs worked nine hours a day, and drove oil-tight, bottom shell, pan head, countersunk points, % inches diameter rivets. It was not necessary to cut any of the rivets out after driving. Mr. Schwab expressed himself very emphatically in favor of wholesome hardy sports like baseball which have all the allurement.* necessary to attract a specator and furnish Ms husky riveter* amusement. Not only that but he believes In building base ball plants at all ship building places. What If the big leagues do bust up? There's Schwab. repqfeAP.GUN The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away! When the territory which now comprises the stato of Minnesota was "created, this ante dating Pierre Radisson's visit in 1659 by many centuries, that re gion was spot lighted by the Great Spirit, who favored It as a natural game preserve, making it especially seductive to the feather aces of the air and monarchs of the woods, plac ing suitable food of easy access. The lakes were covered with wild rice, celery in quantity could be located by the deep sea divers. The Noble Kcd Man, quick to locate and pre empt sections where game was plenty and manual labor made easy, called this section home and were loath to relinquish their inherent rights. A body ot' water now known as Rice Lake in Atkin county, about 6 miles long and 2 miles wide, whose depth, temperattire and subsoil were especially adapted to the rais ing of wild rice in quantity, was the mecca of all adjacent tribes during the harvest season, when they per mitted their squaws to garner the winter's supply of rice, their staff of life. The tribal tepees were pitched near the shore and the season was an uninterrupted succession of gala days for the Indians. Gambling in every form then known to those crafty warriors, was scheduled day and night. Tests of skill and ath letic speed or endurance, upon which wagers were placed, was at all times in vogue. Foot races, ala Marathon, in which speed accompanied by en durance, designated Ahe winners. Skilful use of the bow and arrow or throwing the primitive obsidian spear at moving or stationary objects was the means of prying loose many a warrior from his wordly posses sions. There were many contests staged between squaws, promoted by the bucks, based upon their ability to accumulate, in their canoes the greatest amount of rice in a stated period of time. Trappers and squaw men insist this race was en couraged to get more energetic work from the burden bearers, camouflage, to a desired end, claim ing that very little wampum ever changed hands on the results. The final red letter day of the harvest carnival, yas always touched off in a> blaze of glory. A horse Tace, free to all, over a mile course, was the annual Indian derby, every tribe was represented by a pony, which had bt<_u selected una groomed through out the year, ready for this premier event. ! Prior to this race many moons i had been devoted to energetic train ! ing of the tribal equine hope. The : race was an afternoon event and the morning was devoted to the wagering ! of possesssions on the outcome of the ! mile dash. Blankets thrown upon the i ground were the official stake | holders and possessions were I matched up for a change of owner ship. Ponies were bet, then tied i together and staked out. Canoes i were pulled from the water and i beached side by side. Clothing, beads, 1 shells and wampum were thrown ! upon the blankets, heaped up in I small piles. The old flint locked six I foot Kuntucky rifle was placed against a tree and beaver skins to I the heighth of the gun, when it was j standing upright, V/ere wagerod against this unusual firearm. All |of the commodities wagered to be ; taken possession of by the winner at I the conclusion of the race. | Indians are natural born gamblers, I and love to court the Ooddess of Good Fortune, catering at all times to their many superstitions. They ' are far in advance of many of their t pale-faced brothers, being jysy j loosers. and accepting success with stoical indifference. Loaded down 1 with Indian plunder, they would re j turn home in a happy frame of j mind, even assisting the squaw to I keep the home fire burning, while I the warrior who had suffered defeat, ■ wore his ill-fitting garb of "sack .cloth" so common to race track de votees. This was the epoch when "The Lord Giveth. • Im Uu" showered his blessings, taking "the protection and propagation of game under his own personal supervision causing the wild rice to go and be harvested by his red children for their winter sustenance as the high chief of all tribes, conserved food, by issuing an edict "that no rice should be wagered on any game of chance." This was the original law and the start of the crusade against gambling. America's native settlers then enjoyed life to the. limit in their primitive way, satisfied with their Great Spirit who accorded them the right to shoot and kill when tribal misunderstandings oc curred, the same grand and glorious privilege we are permitted at this time to indulge in, a couple of cen turies later. The Pale Pace invaded, located and surveyed the lands of the In dian in 1858, at which time Min nesota became a state and home steads reclaimed swamp lands, the timber has been cut away and civili zation has eliminated the game, un til to-day "The Lord Taketh Away." Game is rapidly disappearing every year. A duck hunt on the historic Rice Lake, with my old friends, J. W. JULY 13, 1918. , Nelson and James Hart, of Duluth, I Minn., occasioned this mental flight I recounting by-gone days. Leaving the prosperous city of I Duluth, wo motored along the St. i Louis River, passing the shipyards j and steel plant, the second largest in I tho U. S., now molding into form j the iron oar, whjch the Great Spirit has taught the white man to utilize, | he was provided sufficient raw ma terial in Minnesota, that the de- I mands of nations will not exhaust in I ages; this assures allies success and spells ignominious defeat for those trouble starting Huns. Arriving at Rice Lake, about 80 miles west of Duluth, we found many of the old-time Indians in I their sickiups; I had no trouble to j secure a fine specimen of the red I race as a punter. We made our i headquarters at Rig Il!ich, a 12,000 i acre pasture, which has been grac | iously open to the red blood public i as a free hunting and fishing ground I under state restrictions. The lake ; is also a public feeding ground for ; migratory birds, which aggregated j there from every point of the com ; pass; puddlers, divers and saw bills I or pirates, all are in evidence. When j tho flight is on, Grass or Wooded | Islands, or preferably Indian Point, at the east outlet of the lake, are ! selected for blind shooting. The j favorite method is "jumping" or ! flushing birds fjom the grass or wild | rice, a method which has been adopted In other localities for years. The success of "punt shooting" de pends upon the skill of your boat- I man. My Indian punter, Chfef | Morning Run, abbreviated by the i writer "Morning Cy" was an expert, he was a young buck, full of pep , and energy and Incidentally love | crazy about the Princess Con-a-tau qua, a young squaw noted for her I beauty, who resides on the lake, I and has acquired the sobriquet of I Emma Smith from the pale faces. We were shooting on tho second | migratory (flight and birds wore very plenty, our bag limit acquired early in the day, after which "Morn ing Cy" and the writer killed the balance of the time visiting, much I of my information he imparted. In i dian mounds at Indian Point were freighted with interest and anti j quities, pottery, arrow heads and i implements of the stone age are ! there located. Two days was our shooting limit, the bag limit on large , ducks was ours every day, if unre- I stricted and disposed gratify killing inclinations, canoe limit would have been our Rice Lake history, as we were there on a fine flight.

P Old Printer's Talent Puts Cash in Pocket Macon, Ga. —There was Shelley. the Irish Count, as he styled him self, who would come occasionally for a month or so from a round the-world trip, making the circuit without a dollar and all his baggage crammed In his vest pocket, if he had a \'est; If not it didn't matter. When he blew into a printing office hero in Atlanta, New Orelans or | Charleston—anywhere—he was as welcome as a keg of beer at mid night, and that was some welcome. The Count was rated as one of the swiftest printers, and where some made $5 the day he could easily make $8 or $lO. But a day's work was a gracious plenty at a time. In the days when the late Col. W. A. [ Huff was Mayor and presided over the police court, the police had or ders to let the Count alone unless he got to lighting, but, unlike old Limerick, he was not a fighter. On the other hand, the drunker he got the jollier he became. And yet he had his sober moments, even when drunk. It was his habit to sleep all day, for night was his time to to play. Gerferally he would pile himself in some out-of-the-way cor ner of an office or under the stair way or in the cellar and sleep. He loved the hours of midnight or the | small hours of the morning. Some times seeing a number of men on the street together he would mount a drygoods box or barrow and re- I site Poe's "Raven" or other poem. Being a born actor and possessed of a rich and resonant voice he would stir his hearers to that pitch thc.v thought him equal to Booth or Forrest. Following he j would launch a tirade against the ! world for not recognizing true genius and upbraid the crowd of listeners | for not furnishing sufficient coin I to fan the dramatic spark which he | possessed into flame. It was such | exquisite nerve that the coin was ' forthcoming. With his pockets full .he visited the printing office, hade the boys an affectionate farewell and was off.
