Tris. it seem3, had been in a batting slump for a week, lie went to bat one day with two men on bases. Connolly was behind the plate and called Tris out on what Tris thought was a ball. Tris was peeved. He turned to the veteran umpire and said, "Why donot vou quit and have Johnson pension you?" "I'll quit the minute my umpiring is P'lything like your batting," shot back Connollly. It was the last word in the conversation. F. M. Troeh of Vancouver, and Homer Clark, of Alton, 111., are respectively, high average amateur and professional trap shooters for 1918, according to the official figures of the Interstate Association. Troeh broke fi.555 targets out of 6,845. for an average of .9722, while Clark shattered 3.228 out of 3.310, giving him an average of .9752 for the season. Magnates of the Three-I league will be well represented at the special meeting of the National Association cago January 14. There Is anxiety to secure early action in regard to the formation of a circuit for the coming year and the preliminary steps will likely be taken at the Chicago conference. There are many inquiries from prospective members and a strong and compact circuit Is In prospect. Bloomington. Peoria. Decatur, Springfield. Quincy, Hannibal. Alton, Danville and Rockford are eliglbles and it may be desirable to take in one or two cities of Indiana, former members of the Central league. The opinion appears to be general that the Three-I should reorganize for the 1919 season, and it Is expected that something definite will develop from the Chicago conference. On the shores of the North sea there has recently been started a factory for the manufacture of what has proved to be a very satisfactory food for live stock from the refuse of a fish-packing plant. It is said that the cleanest town In the world is Broek, Holland. fVT THIS Ot'T IT IS WORTH MOKBV POVT MISS THI3 Cut out this slip, enclose with Rc and mall It to Foley ft Co.J 2S35 Sheffield Ave., Chicago.

On The Sfcreen
WASHINGTON Most of the beautiful' mountain scenes appearing in "The Goddess of Lost Lake," starring Louise Glaum and showing today at the Washington Theatre, were taken 6500 to 7000 feet above the sea and are among the most impressive scenes ever incorporated in a screen play. A company of twenty-six people and eight horses Journeyed into the San Bernardino mountains for the scenes. They were conveyed by autos as far as machines could penetrate, an old mountain buckboard carrying them the rest of the distance. MURRETTE A treat is promised the ardent adsacrifice for his sister and the heroism of a paroled prisoner who gains his freedom on the plea that he be given a chance to fight for his country. Unduly punished by the law, he purges himself of the stigma by valorous deeds on the battlefield. Running through the play Is a love story of acute appeal. All the world love a lover. MURRAY. There appears to be no doubt that Mr. Charles Dillingham's stupendous production of "Chin Chin," with Wills and Binder in the lead, will duplicate its record of absolute capacity at the Murray. , t Though the title of "Chin Chin" suggests a Chinese setting it appears that the scenes are not laid anywhere near the Celestial land. There Is no leading lady in this organization. Although a number of beautiful women, principals and otherwise, song birds and actresses are in the cast. It appears that she who is to enjoy the place of honor as first favorite is left to the choice of the public. Tom Brown of the Six Brown Brothers' famous Saxaphone clown band, composed "That Moaning Saxaphone Rag," which Is one of the hits of the play. It is estimated that 250,000 people all from points more than two hundred miles from New York have already seen "Chin Chin," while it was presented at the Globe Theater in New York, and now Mr. Dillingham is actually bringing this his only company in its entirety to the Murray theater tonight. Starts Campaign Against Delinquent Tax Payers O. D. Cosier of Indianapolis, tax expert, is in Richmond to assist County Treasurer Ed Weidner in collecting delinquent taxes. Mr. Cosier comes well recommended from Indianapolis. Anderson, Muncle, Fort Wayne and other cities where he has worked. He has been in the business for more than 25 years. He has six persons who are assisting him. These assistants are men who have been sworn In by the county clerk and the county treasurer. A legal demand will be made for the taxes due in Wayne county. Delinquencies in thla county amount to about $100,000. When the tax col lector informs the delinquent that his taxes are due and he does not pay them, a levy is placed upon the prop erty assessed and If necessary the goods is removed and sold. This Is the only method provided by the Indiana State law. The delinquents In this county have had more than a year to pay these taxes. The delinquency up to January 1. 1919, amounts to approximately $100,000. The treasurer with the assistance of Mr. Cosier and his deputies intends to clean up the entire amount, some of which has been running for twelve years. ANNOUNCE CANDIDACY WASHINGTON. Jan. 7.

HEAVY SCHEDULE IS BOOKED FOR MIAMI TEAM
OXFORD, O.. Jan. 7. Basket-ball nrosDCCts at Miami have been made brighter hy the news of the probable return to school of Captain Robinson, now at Camp Sherman, but Coach Rider is far from predicting any championship for his squad this year. The team goes On the floor for its first conference game January 11, against Oberlin. The men are full of fight, but Just how Rider's combination will work Is uncertain. A heavy blow was dealt Miami's chances when Ohio colleges recently ruled against playing freshmen on varsity teams. Several strong men In the irst year class had loomed up as splendid material for the basket-ball team. But four letter men plan to return to college for the coming term Robinson. Brate. French and Munns Around these the Coach has tried to 'build up his regular team. There is a possibility that Moore, captain of last year's freshman team, may come back. If he does, Coach Rider will shift Robinson from his usual position at center to forward, and let Moore take the plvotel place Miami faces a difficult schedule, and If the team goes through without a de feat, as it did last year, its supporters trill be pleasantly surprised. Oberlin played January 11; Denlson, January 21, and March 1; Cincinnati, January 25 and March 7; Wesleyan, February 22: Kenyon. January 18 and February 1; Mt. Union. February 8; and Witten berg. February 15 and 21. Miami's football schedule, said to be the hardest ever arranged, remains intact. It includes a game at Cleve land with Case, on October 11. This will be the first meting of the two schools, and the contest may help decide knotty questions which have come up each autumn regarding the relative merits of Nortnern ana soutn ern Ohio teams. Oberlin will be played for the first time in five years. .The encounter will take place at Oxford, October 25, and will be the annual home-coming affair. Three weeks later the "Big Reds" will stack up against Mt. Union at Alliance. The teams have not met since 1916. Other games on tne scneauie are Kenyon at Oxford, October 4; Wesleyan at Oxford, October 11; Den lson at Granville, November 1: Ohio Northern at Oxford, November 8; and Cincinnati at Cincinnati, November 27. A tentative baseball schedule has been drawn up which includes seven games, two with Wittenberg, two with Wesleyan, two -with Cincinnati and one ith Denlson. More games will be added to the list later. The track schedule is about as usual. Wesleyan, Cincinnati and Denlson will be Miami's opponents in dual meets, the first at Oxford and the others away from home. The annual interscholastic meet, which is coming to be one of the biggest red letter days in Itaml athletics, has been set for May 15. On May 24 the squad will Journey to Columbus for the annual Bis Six meet. Friends' Missionary from Jamaica Arrived Here Miss Mary B. White, who has been stationed in Jamaica for over twenty three years in Friends evangelistic missionary work, arrived In the city early Tuesday morning to visit the Friends Board headquarters here before going on to New York where she will sail for Jamaica. Mies White has finished a six months furlough at her home In California. She is stationed with Miss Mora P. Arms at Port Antonia, Jamaica, and carries on work among the natives, who are East Indian coolies, Mohammendens and negroes. She said she did not think there would be any radical changes apparent In Jamaica as a result of peace. Water birds, which are ordinarily able to float high on the water, are enabled to sink at will by expelling the air which is inclosed within the film of feathers surrounding their bodies, thus making them heavier than water.

Harbor of Brest Described in Letter Received From Charles H oey
An Impressionistic description of France from the harbor of Brest following the march of Company B. 60th Regiment to Pontanezen Barracks, made famous during Napoleon's regime and up toward the American front is given In a recent letter from Charles Hoey, son of J. W. Hoey, 502 North Eighteenth street. ' "We entered the harbor of Brest at dusk, and for the first time during the voyage our convoy showed Its lights. Our party of ships was stretched over for some distance in a single line, lights of vari-colors burning on each vessel. We had picked up an added convoy of destroyers while passing through the danger zone and the long column of gayly lighted vessels formed a picture none of us will soon forget. Finally ,we heard the anchor chains rattling and the splash of the anchor In the water and knew that we might be able to get a peaceful night's rest soon, not to be awakened in the morning at 4 o'clock with "everybody on deck with belt and life preservers." Believe me, we were truly a thankful bunch when we put our feet not on dry land for Brest does not have such a thing but steady land. The 750 of us we marched up to Pontanezen Barracks to' be quartered there temporarily. "The barracks are surrounded by a high stone wall, and entered through an Immense gate. They are long, low stone buildings, a story and a bait high facing a large square parade ground. There are six buildings. Opposite them is . the old guard house which one doesn't have a very keen desire to view from the inside. The walls were three feet thick, and at the bottom along the side of each side was a slit providing for the exit of drainage, and entrance of air. The doors are heavily built and well covered by two Immense hinges, and one big lock, supplemented by a very stout iron bands. Inside the walls there still remain marks of the place where prisoners were formerly shot; in another place was a scaffold over the wall where I understand prisoners could formerly have their necks stretched; while in another place was the block on which prisoners frequently lost their heads. "In order to keep us occupied here our company was put on military police duty for several days. I was one of the lusky twelve to be stationed In the town, and there I attended vespers in a church over 500 years old. Finally orders came to move and we boarded a train for "Somewhere else in France." On through Le Mons, Tours, Vierzon, Chouszot and Dyon, we arirved in Is-Sur-Tille, where we were destined to do our first bit in helping with the war. Our happy home for the coming month was an Immense ware house. After two days' rest we marched, not willingly, especially, to biggest pile of shovels I ever saw, and one was donated to each one of us, after which we were introduced to that form of manual labor called "Gandy dancing," or in more refined and technical language maintenance of the way. The point was that they were not quite ready to send us on the railroad, so such detail work as this kept us busy until they were ready to use us on our chosen occupations. Soon afterward I started on the wild ride of which I have written you, and landed here in Leffol le Grand, where the Meuse river has lately become famous to Americans on account of their fighting there, winds through the valley. Farther over on the level ground Is a road which resembles our boulevards, bordered by trees of practically the same size. From the hill one can see five different towns. The church or Basillque here is very beautifully decorated and contains six mural paintings of threefourth life size figures showing the Draws Out Soreness and Inflammation Petrisol Penetrates. .

six great events In the life of Joan of Arc. Each painting is a masterpiece. This town was my nearest approach to the battle line. While the fighting was going on we could se.e the flash of the guns and hear them roar so that we felt as If we were really participating the war. We had "Dark Night" orders here for some months. Ollie King and Bert Russell are both In this camp. I see Ollie every meal and Bert every few days. Bill Kaiser Is supply sergeant of Co. A, and Frank Hole, who was here, has gone on up to Commercy. Our division can say one thing and that is that though it had no part in the actual flghting, one of our train and engine crews was the first Amer lean, railway crew to enter Metz. They hopped on the train that carried Gen. Petain and rode Into Metz. Now and then in his letter Hoey speaks of his brother. Edward Hoey, who la another division is in, France. In regord to him he says: "Received a letter a week ago, the first in over two months, from Edward, I bad inquired for the location of the 19th engineers immediately upon arriving In Brest, and learned they were stationed at Nevers, A. P. O.. 710. but I did not see Edward when we passed through there for he was at the time down at St. Nazaine. We are arranging to meet In Dijon for Christmas together. Have our request for passes in and are both entitled to seven days' leave of absence since we have been here over four months. Edward Is entitled to a six months service stripe. "I am working In the office of the M. M. here doing drafting and other odd Jobs along engineering lines, but am not rushed greatly since the war is over, so am taking the opportunity to see some of the country. "Two weeks ago, five of us walked to Meufvhateau and baefc. The town is ten kilometres or six miles from here and by the time we reached camp we looked like veterans of. a hundred miles. The day was one of a big celebration in the town, and the streets, gaily decorated, were jammed with soldiers of all nationalities. The Amercan flags predominated. A man in civilian clothes was a curiosity, but there were French, English, Italian, Algerian and American soldiers and officers; and Chinese coolies who were working around the Y. M. C A. In the afternoon an artillery outfit marched into town, headed by a regimental band. They came through the triumphal arch and on down the main street of the town aiald the cheers of the crowd. Later on the main square In front of the statue of Joan 'd Ar the crowd surrounded the band and listened to regular and good American

"Last Sunday after 7 a. m. mass, Bill Mabam, Bill Reilly and I walked to Domreiny, the home of Joan 'd Arc. It was a round trip of about twenty lies. We first visited the little church where she attended mass and saw there the bapclsmal fount where she was baptized. The church Itself is very much like the small, churches found in every small town In France no matter how small the town may b.e. We crossed the street to visit her home and this, too, a typical French stone house. It contains four small cubby rooms downstairs, and two up. Upstairs there are many pictures of her battles, and other souvenirs. From here wewalked to the place where she BACK LIKE A BOARD?

Clever Acting Presented
The Boomerang; in The advanced stage of love-sick ness, as presented by Harry Haydenj in "The Boomerang." at the Murray: theatre last night, brought the audience to the verge of hysterical laughter, tempered by a reminiscent sympathy with "the young fooL" As Bud Woodbridge. a miserable lover whose beloved has tired of his ever close attentions, Hayden won the sympathy of the audience, at the same time he aroused its sense of humor. From the first scene in the doctor's office, when he confesses to the hopeless attachment, to the great climax, when he announces to the nurse and the world at large that "she loves me," Hayden is the finished actor. His interpretation of the part is so cleverly done that one Is never conscious of egaggeratlon or affectation. The facial expressions of hopeless misery, the dejected posture of one who is without hope, the gruff unhappiness in his voice as he assures the doctor "that nothing is the matter with him that he can cure" deserve the superlative in description. Hayden Is easily the, star of the production. Without him, "The Boomerang" would have been merely an ordinary, secondrate play. Robert Conness is clever as Dr. Sumwhose theories about the love game are "boomeranged" upon himself, and Louiszeta Valentine makes a very pretty and charming heroine as Virginia Xelba. The minor parts are well carried. Decided proof that Richmond people want good plays and will patronize them is shown in the fact that the houses for 'The Boomerang" and "Chin Chin," which is to show at the Murray tonight, were completely sold out, before the night of the play. saw the vision. They have built a j very beautiful church there overlook-! Ing the valley of the Meuse. One can j scarcely attempt to describe the country seen from the summit of this hill."

NEW YORK. Jan. 7. The shipment of American-built steam locomotives, weighing each 73 tons and assembled all but the smokestack and the tender, so that they could move away under their own steam within a .few hours after their arrival in France, was among the accomplishments of the United States army transport force under stress of war and has since been continued. More than 400 of these locomotive were so shipped from New York in a few months, it was learned here with the lifting of the war censorship regulations, and these were In addition to 1,200 which were shipped In sections nine to a locomotive packed in cases. The ships used to transport the locomotives complete were of a special type with three holds, each hold measuring 60 by 102 feet, entered by hatches 39 feet wide and 42 feet long. Into each of the three holds were placed 12 locomotives 36 to a ship. For a bed or flooring on which they rested for the voyage was used more than 3,000 tons of steel rails. The locomotives when in position were braced with heavy wooden beams and the space between the boilers to the level of the top of the steam dome packed solid with highly compressed baled bay.
UUNT THROW AWAY YOUR OLD SHOES Make Them Wear like New As Did This Canadian Officer A Canadian army officer. William Pemberton, of the famous Princess Pat Regiment, told of the extraordinary wear given him by a pair of army boots twice repaired with Neolin Soles. "Six months of trench warfare under destructive conditions put the first pair of Neolin Soks oat of business." said Lieutenant Pemberton. "but ordinary soles would have gone to pieces in much less time." Don't throw away shoes that can be repaired. Have them re-bottomed with tough, durable Neolin Soles. Any cobbler or repairman will do the work for you. The price is no more than for soles that give less wear. Remember Neolin Soles are created by science to be what soles should be.
