April 11. Youthful chauvinistic sportsmen are eagerly following the muvenienls of a young Japanese named Okubo, who has just started on bicyeie trip around the world. Strapped to his wheel Okubo carries which lie shov I The Seasons Cleverest Creations Col eled from the gi.unds of the palace of aa trie lected in Two Groups for Quick Selling at Remarkably Low Prices SIX MILLIONS REVENUE odels for 1914 I Standard In- i Group Group rically Equipped lec T-vOR several years past the Indian engineering department has been experimenting with electric devices as applied to motorcycle use.

His intention is 10 sprinkle a little sand whenever he reaches a Japanese colony or comes to a place where a. number of Japanese live. "My idea," he explained before starting, "is to remind Japanese abroad of their native countryof the glorious Mikado Empire." Japanese doctors are discussing the unusual, if not unprecedented, ease of a child meeting death from the beak of a rooster. A 4 -year-old girl was walking to a playground near her father's house in Tokio when she was attacked bv a rooster, which pecked at her viciously. The girl ran, stumbled and fell, hitting a stone.

Before the onlookers could interfere the rooster had again pecked the child in the forehead. The child was picked dead. A livelv competition has been going on between Japanese steamship companies which hope to get a tlovern-ment subsidy for a steamship line through the Panama Canal to the eastern coast of the United States, with terminus at Boston. At present it looks as if "the Xippon Yusen Kaisha would be elected and that the company will be accorded a subsidy of SI, 000, 000. The other competitors were the Toyo Kisen Kaisha and the Osaka Shosen Kaisha.

The Toyo Kisen will continue its service to San Francisco, but it is probable that the Nippon Yusen will discontinue its service to Seattle and turn it over to the Osaka company, which is building extra steamers to be used on the northern, route, which it will henceforth monopolize. confidently declared to be the best that can be secured. l.terlin, April Jl. The German authorities have again capitulated to what they term "the ineradicable gaming instinct of the average person." After continued and vain attempts to put an end to promiscuous betting on horse races, which involves a sum yearly estimated at between $150,000,000 and $200,000,000, they have decided to license bookmaking in an effort to secure for the State a percentage of this sum. A measure to this end already reported briefly by cable, has been adopted by the Federal Council and is now awaiting the action of the Reichstag.

It is hoped to have it become effective in time for the Baden-Baden races next August. Heretofore the only form of betting sanctioned by law has been by means of the pari-mutttel machines.

It has continuously urged the advantages of this type. It has brought the Twin Motor to such a state of perfection and has so demonstrated its worth that the demand for Twin Models in 1913 comprised 90 7' of the total Indian output. The Indian Twin has no equal for rapidity of acceleration, capacity for hard work and power output in proportion to weight.

It has suppleness and flexibility, a snappy delivery that instills confidence in its owner to conquer any road, and tremendous endurance. The power, stability, ease of control and low cost of upkeep of the Indian Twin recommend it to every rider who contemplates the purchase of a 1914 motorcycle.

It was also decided to urge upon Congress the investment of postal savings bank funds in bonds of irrigation districts and the underwriting of such bonds by the Federal Government. Negative votes against a plan which was adopted recommending the granting of nonmineral lands to the States for financing irrigation projects were registered by California, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oregon, South Dakota and Texas delegates to the conference.

The permanent irrigation commission will consist of a committee of not exceeding three persons to be appointed by the Governors of each of the fifteen States participating in the present conference. Tills commission will consider matters of interest in respect to irrigation, individual, corporate or reclamation projects, find will be empowered to submit to the Secretary of the Interior its recommendations on such matters. The conference also adopted a vote of confidence in the policies of Secretary Lane, declaring he had inspired new faith and courage in the people of the West, and had identified the operations of his department with the best traditions of American statesmanship. The delegates adopted tne report of the Desert Land Committee, a prominent feature of which was a recommendation that title of land "be granted" by the Government when settlers or promoters have expended large sums without being able to accomplish the results prescribed by the present law.
