FASCISTS EXPRESS GREAT FAITH
IN DEFINITIONS OF THEIR CREED
ROME, July 6. (/P)—The extent to
which ardent Fascists have accepted
their political creed as an all-encom
passing repository of almost reli
gious devotion, was illustrated by a
recent competition, conducted by a
Roman newspaper, for a short, apt
definition of Fascism.
The waning definition was “Fas
cism is the spirit of the free com
munities of Italy under the aegis of
Imperial Rome.” The minor prizes
were carried off by contributors who
saw in Fascism all of the material
and spiritual splendors usually asso
ciated with Utopia or with the heav
enly reward held out by religion to
the good and the pure.
TIMID ANIMALS SUCCUMB

SEATTLE, Wn„ July 6. (/P)— Arti

are described as the reasons for ani

killings themselves and dying from
disease. Last season, frightened at
a steady stream of automobiles, four
deer charged into the corral fence
and broke their necks.
“Taken from the quiet surround
ings of their native haunts into the
noise and gas laden air of the park,’
said Dr. Gus Knudson, director of
the zoo, “the animals loose interest
in life and die, if they are not fright
ened to death.”
Mrs. Josephine Slater, mayor of

MARATHON CHAMP
EDW. VOGL TELLS
ABOUT MOUN. RACE
WANTS TO RACE AGAIN—MYS
TERY ON MOUNTAINSIDE
ROPES STRUNG UP
“Eckman is a fast man, and had
he showed a little more speed on the
downward run, I doubt if I could have
overhauled him.” Edward Vogl, win
ner of the 1925 Mammoth Fourth of
July Marathon race, stated yesterday
to The Gateway representative. With
respect to the race, Vogl has the fol
lowing to say.
‘‘Yes, I believe 1 can chop at least
two minutes off my time which was
recorded the other day at 57 minutes
and 40 seconds. The record time for
the round trip wras made in 1916, not
1915, by Alex Bolam, in the remark
ably fast time of 54 minutes and 12
seconds. I had little training for the
event, and I understand the rest of
the men had little training as well.
I trained for about nine days, making
II trips up the mountain and a little
road work at Mile 7.
“As I said before, I knew that I
could 'overhaul Eckman before he
reached the bottom of the mountain,
for I had practiced hard and given
this matter, of coming down, a great
deal of thought. In long side jumps,
like a kangaroo, I certainly made fast
time. Once I fell and rolled down
hill. They tell me the spectators
could see me tumbling down the hill.
I figure I lost about 50 yards in this
fall. Upon reaching the lowlands I
ran smack into a wire Stretched
across my point of crossing. This
wire was not there when I went
up and it is a mystery to me how it
got there for I came down, from the
alders, exactly by the path which I
had gone up. However, there the
wire was, and I hit it with full force
at about my thigh's height. I know
I lost an additional 30 yards by this
stop.
"The first half of the race, going
up, was hard, but the further up the
better the going. The alders mark
about ' the half way point on the
mountain. Another surprise awaited
me going up. At certain intervals
there were four or five stretches of
rope over rough spots. No one
seems to know who is responsible
for putting up the ropes the longest
which was approximately 20 feet.
They did not help much but at that
gave a chap a chance to gulp a little
more wind. At one time all of us j
racers, five, had hold of the same
time.”
Vogl stated he liked the idea of
another race this summer and is
sure he can knock his record gal
ley west. Vogl is 38 years old, sin
gle, and has a ranch at Mile 5. He
has been in this district for exactly
five years last Sunday.
WOMEN TO HAVE BUSY
SUMMER AT WEMBLEY
LONDON, July 7. (JP)—Women are
going to have more to do with this
year’s Wembley Exhibition than they
did last year. Queen Mary will pay
many more visits during the summer,
if her engagements permit.
Under the presidency of the Du
chess of York and the vice-presiden
cy of Princess Mary, the women's
section has organized many func
tions including a ‘‘National Baby
Week.” The march of women into
spheres hitherto exclusively held hy
men is indicated by the intention
to hold a conference of women en
gineers.
The majority of women, however,
will be engaged principally in the
food section, giving hints on house
hold affairs, the selection of fruits
and food, and demonstrating the
latest household labor saving de
vices.
Persistent violations of child labor
laws by certain New Jersey truck
farmers were reported to the state
director of employment.
Robert Chandler of Jasper, Ala.,
ate 18 bananas in 11 minutes, fol
lowed by 3 hamburgers and two bot
tles of soda, and still lives.
Mas. Bertha Smith of Washington
refused to prosecute Merman Brown,
who struck her with an axe, saying
she admired masterful men.
ISLAND GIVES FINANCIAL AID
TO THEATRICAL PRODUCTIONS
DUBLIN, July 6. —The Abbey
Theater, founded by William Butler
Yeats, the poet and senator, and
Lady Gregory, plays an important
part in the intellectual life of Ire
land. It ha sprodueed for the first
time 170 plays, many of them sue
cessful, but the theater has been
for the past 12 years run at a loss,
and no director or shareholder ha3
ever drawn a dividend.
To enable the institution to carry
on, the finance ministry has includ
ed in the budget a grant of $4,250
so far. In his opinion there is no
agency which has done more to
make the name of Ireland known
aboard, and he says it would be a
fortune if the only institution in the
country providing an incentive to
dramatic and literary work should be
closed down.
GOOD RACEBUT
A POOR FINISH
SAYS ECKMAN
“It was a fine race but a poor fin
ish,” Eric Eckman, Marathon runner,
who finished in second place Satur
day after breaking the record going
to the top by 30 seconds, a full two
minutes in advance of the other four
racers stated yesterday to a Gateway
representative.
“Sure I can beat my time if another
race is run. In jumping over an ob
stacle near the foothills, I stumbled
in avoiding a small child, losing my
balance and falling to the ground. My
knee hit against a rock and contrary
to the article appearing in your paper
yesterday, I was not knocked out, but
my knee went numb on me for two
minutes, I should judge. It was hard
for me to get going again and to this
I attribute the losing of the race.”
Eckman is 25 years of age and has
been in the Seward district for about
three years.
His ranch house built at the inter
section of four state lines, a man has
rooms in Utah, Colorado, Arizona
and Mexico.
Mrs. Louisa Job of Chicago declared
her husband offered to sell her to
another man for $50 down and $25
on delivery.

BEST MAN WON
SAYS M. KILLIAN
ONE OF R ACERS
MODEST MARTIN KILIAN THINKS
MARATHON RACE EQUAL
TO NOME DOG CLASSIC
“I think the Marathon race is a
fine thing and certainly should be
made an annual event. I believe
this race can be made equally a3
prominent as the once famed dog
races .which in late years, seems to
be receding from the limelight of
publicity. It would be a wonderful
thing for Seward, and much good
would certainly be derived from the
notoriety if Seward would make the
mammoth event an annual affair."
That’s what Martin Kilian, forest
ranger, thinks about the race in
which he was one of the contest
ants, finishing on the tail end. Kiliau
did not train a day for the event, but
if another race is run, would cer
tainly get into hard training and try
it again.
Kilian finished in fine shape, breath
ing easily, walking off from the tape,
at the completion of his run, chatting
away easily with a friend. A small
cut on the palm of his left hand was
the only mark on him. Kilian is 28
years old and a splendid example of
the personnel of the forestry depart
ment. In conclusion Kilian said,
“The Marathon race is a fine sport,
good and clean. There had been
some remarks passed around that
some dirty work might crop up, but
there was not a sign of anything
wrong at any time. You can say for
me, that the best man won.”
SIBERIA NO PLACE TODAY
FOR SEEKERS OF GOLD
SEATTLE, July 6. (TP)—The pres
ent policy of the Russian govern
merit has ended foreign gold explor
ation work and prospecting in Kam
chatka, and in the district of the
Amur River of Siberia, Carl A. An
derson, old Alaska gold hunter, said
on returning to Seattle after a five
year stay in that region.
“I do not believe there are more
than six foreign prospectors in the
entire Kamchatka and Amur regions,"
Mr. Anderson declared. “It is a good
place for foreign gold hunters to
keep away from."
Gateway want-ads bring results.
