Back of it is the memory of a boy who died when he was 18, Carl Forstmann was the son of the phil- anthropist, a millionaire textile manufaeturer here, and it is to his memory that the fund has been been appointed which will expend the money for “education or train- ing of any ‘grade, degree or kind; the prosecution of useful experimen- tation and resea physical cor- rection and rehabilitation; the real- ization of any particularly worthy ambition, which, with assistance, of- fers a strong likelihood of success.” What’s Going on in the World BY CHARLES P.

A diminutive wood-shack, cow-town in the northwest, with 600 inhabi- tants, aspired to be heard round the world, it wast Now. this’ Tittle town of Shelby, , 100 miles north of Great Falls, ttled down to its former state of comparative oblivion, trying to re- cuperate from what is generally con- sidered the greatest fiasco in the his- tory of sports. It was the Dempsey- Gibbons fight, July 4, for the world’s heavyweight championship, from which Dempsey came out victor after 15 ‘d-fought rounds. Upon evacuation of the town the next day, Shelby began to recount its losses to some $76,000. Shelby’s loss is Dempsey’s gain, and ‘that of his promoter, Jack Kearns, for these le‘t the west with something like $240,000 in their jeans, ° Yet Shelby, like the boastful frog which blew itself up till it burst, had promised Kearns $310,000 before the fight, and coulg scrape together only two-thirds of the sum. | iathan, largest steamship afloat, which had been reconditioned by the government for trans-Atlantic serv- ice. The ship formerly was the Ger- man liner Vaterland, which had been } confiscateg by the government at the beginning of the war.

Since Congress gave assent for the use of alcohol for medicinal pur- poses, its boomerang has come back in the form of a decision by Fed- eral Judge George M.

THE POPE INTERVENES, France has greatly resented the pope's intervention into the Ruhr controversy, when he wrote .a letter in which he proposed that Germany’s ‘ability to pay should be taken as a i basis for reparations, and suggested that France might find less “odious” but no less effective guarantees than territorial occupations, The vatican denies the pope's let- ter was prompted by influence from {England or Belgium, although there were such charges in the French Chamber of Deputies. However, a somewhat similar letter went to the paper representative at Munich, in which he was commissioned to inter- vene with the eGrman authorities for the secession of “peaceful re- sistance” in the Ruhr. Chancellor Cuno complied, to some extent, by deprecating recent acts of sabotage in the occupicd zone. GREEK-TURK WAR, War is actually on between Greece and Turkey, although little is heard of it here. Attempt of the Greeks to lang a regiment of troops at Kara- Burum, near the Dardanelles, met with a repulse’ which resulted in the sinking of a Greek ship and many, casualties on both sides, IMMIGRATION RUSH, Immigration records swell and burst. ‘The first day of July found 11 liners nosing their way toward Ellis , Island. These vessels curried 11,482 passengers of all classes, and crews of 4,100 men. That meant 15,682 had to be-examined by inspectors. It was nearly double the number arriving on the same day a year ago. The law ullowing a monthly admis- sion of 3 per cent of the nationals already in the country, caused the rush on the first of the month. About 80 per cent of the arrivals were ad- mitted. , PEACE PRIZE.
