SPORT IN THE PHILIPPINES
MANILA, July 28. (&)—'That base
ball is the most popular sport in the
Philippine Islands was indicated to
day when the total receipts at the
Far Eastern Olympic games became
known recently. The receipts at the
six baseball games played among
the Philippines, Japan and China
amounted to $9,960, while football
drew the next largest attendance,1
the total receipts for that sport be
ing $3,961. The total receipts for
all the events amounted to $26,180.
It was explained that the receipts
from the track and field events,
which amounted to only $3,7S0, prob
ably would have been much larger,
had not Japan’s athletes walked off
the field as a protest against the
disqualification of one of her run
ners for fouling on the second day
of the meet.

APPROPRIATED PORCELAIN
GIVES SOVIET FINE BATCH
MOSCOW, July 28. (^—Soviet
Russia claims to possess the finest
collection of Russian and West Eu
ropean porcelain and ceramic ob
jects in the world. A special muse
um recently was organized in Mos
cow to accommodate the vast collec
tion, which is made up chiefly of
private collections appropriated af
ter the revolution from the national
ized property of Russian magnates
like Riaboushinsky, Oliv, Gudovitch,
Morozov and others. Morozov’s col
lection alone consists of nearly 3."00
articles.
To make the museum’s collection
representative of all classes of porce
lain art, magnificent examples oi
Sevres, German, Italian. English and
Swiss porcelain were brought from
the Hermitage in Petrograd. The
splendid colection of Danish porce
lain belonging to the Dowager Em
press Marie also was added.
BIOGRAPHY OF LINCOLN
IN GERMAN FAVORABLY
RECEIVED IN BERLIN
BERLIN, July 28. (/P)—One of the
latest publications on the German
book market is a biography of Ab
raham Lincoln in German. Hitherto
only the German translation of the
Carl Shurz sketch of Abraham Lin
coln’s life existed. The author of
the G-erman work is Count Albrecht
Montgelas.
The book has met with a favor
able reception by the press. Review
ing it the Vossische Zeitung says:
“Despite the obvious thoroughness of
Count Montgelas’ investigations and
research work among the mass of
existing Lincoln bio^aphievs, bis
book reads like an interesting short
story.” Another paper states: “Even
among educated Germans, there are
not many who fully realize Lincoln's
historical importance.”
PICTURES SHOW TRICKS
BY WHICH THE MADRID
BEGGARS DECEIVE PEOPLE
MADRID, July 28. (.P)—Street beg
ging here is on the increase and the
efforts of the authorities to suppress
it have been frustrated by a too gen
erous public who give libera! alms
to the beggars.
The authorities have now. how
ever, issued a photograph in the
press which they hope may have the
effect of putting an end to what has
been described as a nuisance. In
this picture a number of beggars are
shown before and after their admit
tance to the asylum reserved for
beggars. In one the men are shown
in a very pitiable condition, blind,
paralytic and one apparently with
one leg.
In the other the photograph shows
the same men erect and apparently
quite normal, the missing leg having
been untucked from its hiding place.
The pictures, it was pointed out, are
merely proof of the ease with which
the alms-giving persons in Madrid
is tricked.
OXFORD LENDS GROTIUS
PORTRAITS TO HOLLAND
OXFORD, Eng., July 28. (P)—The
Oxford House of Congregation has
been persuaded to lend to the Dutch
government the two supposed por
traits of Hugo Grotius, the founder
of international law, which have
hung in the Bodleian Libray for 200
years. It has long been the rule
that no book may go out of the li
brary, even at the request of the
King himself, or on any manner of
condition or bond, but while books
contained pictures often enough, yet
pictures are not books and so have
been held to fall without the rule.
These portraits are alike in gen
eral features, showing a middle-aged
man, ruddy and full-faced with brown
hair and mustache and small point
ed beard. Both resemble the au
thentic portraits of the great law
yer, poet and theologian.
The history of the portraits, prior
to their coming to the University in
1727, is not clear.
Ed Willie, who has been employed
in the Anchorage store of the Brown
& Hawkins Corporation for the last
two years, departed for Ketchikan
last evening, where he wall make con
nections with a* Princess boat for
Vancouver, B. C. He intends to lo
cate somewhere in the States.
