POLITICAL MIXUP BRINGS RESIGNATION MANILA, July 14—Secretary of the Interior Jose Laurel resigned today following a difference with Governor Leonard Wood over the reinstitution of Officer Conley of the American gambling squad. Governor Wood has not yet accepted the resignation. Laurel reinstated Conley on Governor Woods' order after unsuccessfully prosecuting him in court. It was alleged that Conley was the victim of a frame-up on the part of the gambling ring. It was expected Mayor Fernandez would notify other Filipino officials to resign over the same case which is arousing widespread public interest. It is understood Manuel Quezon, Filipino political leader, ordered Laurel to refuse to obey Governor Woods' request for Conley's reinstatement. TOO MUCH 'MONKEY BUSINESS' IN TOWN L. Goble of 316 E. Broadway today brought into the Plain Dealer office what looked like a big green pineapple. It came crashing down from one of his monkey trees, one of two, and Goble is afraid that somebody yet may be hit on the head by one of the things. Usually this monkey tree fruit decays and falls in pieces, one or two at a time, but not this year. Goble remembers only a few cases in 18 years past of the fruit dropping in this way. BEVERLY TRACT LOTS NEARLY ALL SOLD Beverly tract, 22 1-2 acres of orange and walnut groves subdivided by Pritz Horbach in 128 lots, the sale of which started about 4 months ago, is almost sold out now with only 14 lots left for sale. Mr. Horbach, who handled every sale personally of this tract and many others at that same time, considers this a remarkable achievement of which any subdivider may well be proud for he had expected to be BEVERLY TRACT LOTS NEARLY ALL SOLD Beverly tract, 22 1-2 acres of orange and walnut groves subdivided by Fritz Horbach in 128 lots, the sale of which started 4 months ago, is almost sold out now with only 14 lots left for sale. Mr. Horbach, who handled every sale personally of this tract and many others at that same time, considers this a remarkable achievement of which any subdivider may well be proud for he had expected to be kept busy with this tract for at least two years. Seven contractors and builders of Orange-co have acquired each one a number of lots in this most beautiful subdivision for the purpose of building 60 to 80 new homes there. But those sales are not a matter of accident nor of good salesmanship, according to Mr. Horbach's own statement, rather proof of the investing public's sound judgment. The peculiar values of the home sites in this tract will be well understood from the fact that in the next block from Beverly tract lots are selling now for $3000 to $4500. U. S. AUTHORS POPULAR MOSCOW, June 14.—American authors are much in vogue in Russia. Jack London probably is most popular, while the works of Upton Sinclair are translated as fast as they appear. O. Henry's short stories also are gaining favor lately. Mark Twain and Edgar Allen Poe have been translated and have developed good followings. William James and John Dewey are well known and Woodrow Wilson's "The State," was studied in Russia long before Mr. Wilson compiled the "Fourteen Points." One dollar will haul a ton of freight nine miles by horse and wagon, 24 by motor truck, 185 by railroad, 230 by canal, and 3,000 by ship, is the comparison made by the Society of Automotive Engineers.

He is a once was, a has been, a big cheese, never could fight etc. Championship bubbles are sure to break and when they do its good night. The mighty rabble that is heroizing a champion one day is calling him a cheese the next. So we can not blame one Jack Dempsey for making his bubble as material as possible. The showing of big Jess Willard considering his age and long lay off from the ring, was marvelous. It is a two to one bet that Jack Dempsey or Louis Angel Firpo will not be able to duplicate the fight that Willard made when 43 years have tapped at their door. But Willard was defeated, and while the writers said many nice things about his brave last stand it is the general opinion of the masses today that Jess Willard was always a big cheese. There is a very small percentage of people that really keep posted on sports. Ninety-nine out of a hundred that attend championship contests and bet on the outcome are not capable of weighing the real abilities of the contestants. They usually stick to the champion till he is defeated than they follow the new hero. There are thousands that flock to a championship contest that would never think of attending the same contest if the name of champion was left off. It is this great band of champion worshippers that make a hero of a man one day and a bum of him the next. Jess Willard’s beat of knocking out Jack Johnson is forgotten and he will be remembered only as the big flier. Such is the fickleness of the public. But old Jess was fortunate in that his last fight was a great financial success. He never would have drawn such a house with Jack Dempsey or any other man of the day. This fight should make him independent for the rest of his days. As to his conqueror, Louis Angel is a beastly fighter but when he meets Jack Dempsey he will meet something more than brute force and that something more than brute force. Hitting Willard and hitting Dempsey is two problems of a very different nature. At that the Bull of the Pampus may able to rush through and smother Jack the giant killer. BROTHERS PLAY ON OPPOSING TEAMS An interesting feature of tomorrow’s game between the Anaheim Elks baseball team and the White Kings of Los Angeles, will be that two brothers are playing, one on the Anaheim aggregation and the other on the visiting team, Archie Hawkins, famous Fullerton High school football star will play left field while his brother John will play 1st base. John is one of the best known football stars of U. S. C. and is playing baseball during the summer months. Howling Harry Hughes is the pink of condition and will pitch in his regular top shape form tomorrow. The White Kings claim they have the fastest semi-pro twirler in the southern part of the state. It remains to be seen. The White Kings Tagging All the Bases (By I. N. S.) Morrison yielded only four hits and the Pirates beat the Giants 10 to 1. The Cubs rapped the Robbins 5 to 1, and made it three straight. The Reds made it five straight wins by defeating Philadelphia 21 to 7. The Cards also made it five in a row by walloping the Brayes 10 to 6. Hornaby got five hits in five times up. Blankenship won his own game from the Yanks by driving in a run in the tenth with a single. The four to three loss broke a Yankee winning streak. PETE HAX GOES TO MGRS.
