T, H . Oct. 3 (By The V.MO ciatcft Tress ) A party of five promi nent men returned here today with a re port of the flndinp oi tlir Mauna .o lava stream, which now Is flov. ing undi minished thirtv miles to th- sea. The men reported that the pot within n mile of the fissure on Mauna Ioa ?lope, K50O feet above the 1916 eruption. They estimated that the gyier is tliree hun dred feet high and three hundred feet j In diameter. j It rould be heard for miles and sound ed like the exhausts of ten thousand loeo I motives, they said The party, headed by Professor Thomas Jaggar, director of the Klleaue ob servatory. Is etlll out on the desolalo mountain side in his study of the erup tion. There has been no report froro him and It Is presumed that he Is Investi gating at close rung. The lava has formed :in extensive OJtpe extending a quartei of a mile out into the j ocean. The lava Is still flowing In great volume a small tidal wave Thursday I on the Kona coast endangered the lives of several persons. One woman. Mrs. Carl Carlsmlth. wife of a Hilo lawyer, was swept a quarter of a mile to set. but was rescued by n Hawaiian in i canoe. Carlsmlth was liadly bruised on the rocks and his nutomobite was wrecked j by the wave. The disturbance is attributed to a poi sible subsidence of the ocean bed from the sudden weigiit of the laa. The men who saw the flowing lava aald they witnessed a solid column of liquid lava maintaining a steady flow. The lava is flowing for the most part through wild and desolate country, cov ered by rough lava formations from for mer eruptions. The damage Is very Might.

Sept. 27 (By the Associated Press,) "The 6d of .'Machiavellian diplomacy is past and a n w era of open diplomacy is ar rived, with international affairs van aged b co-operation of the powers I whether old school diplomats of Japan I like it or not, declared Premier Hara loday at a luncheon given ln( honor of Baron Makino, former miuis I tor of foreign affairs and one of Japan's delegates to the peace confer ence in view of the struggle going on between the militarists and lib erals of Japan, considerable Interest has been aroused by 'he premier s words M. Hara praised Baron Makino and his colleagues for obtaining approval of all Japanese contentions except that relative to equality of racs, add ing: "The fact that some mlsundrestand I ings existed in foreign countries con cerning the real intention of Japan (made thf task of the Japanese dele gates more severe." The premier said the m-'v postwar era means that "militarism has boen absolutely discarded and that the pow ers will work conjointh for world peace " M. Hara expressed the belief that, the treaty of peace with Gercr.an I would be ratified by the powers at no distant date, although he thought it j probable the operation of the trtaty would bring up new problems which would require the exercise of care and consideration.

What the world series means In dollars and cents io the baseball fraternity can be exem plified by the statement that before the present series is completed the gate receipts for such contests playeu under the jurisdiction of the national commission will reach the Inipreisive total of more than $3,500,000. Not withstanding recent remarks to the contrary it is doubtful if big League baseball would have mounted lo its imposing position without the aid of the world series. The battle for the championship is the logical climax for each season's pennant races and the fact l hat dose to two million spectators have paid almost three and a half million dollars to witness such contests places the stamp of public approval on the play beyond cavil Since 1905, when the national commission began its super vision of the world series, fourteen have been played and the Chicago Americans and the Cincinnati Na tionals are no wengaged in a si rug gle for the fifteenth championship. During the past fourteen seasons the attendance totaled 1,913,494, and as 78 games were played In these se ries the average attendance has ber-n very close to 25,000 per game In the same period these spectators have paid in at ihe gate about $1.80 each for the privilege of watching the play, the aggregate receipts for the 7S games being $3,429,720 in round fie ures. which is an average of very close to $44,000 per game. Further delving into the figures shows that the club owners have prof ited to a greater extent than the play ers for the sums divided among the competint,' clubs and the leagues dur ing the past fourteen years reache the pleasing total of $1,715,700, while the baseball warriors have collet t 1 $1,370,200. The players represeni.il twentv-eight clubs or teams duriri these series and even under a flf fifty division of the pool Instead of the customary sixty and forty split, the average would have been better (ban $60 000 pPr team.

Drop forged in a single piece from bar steel of special formula, it is strong enough to bear the weight of a truck, and pyrometer controlled heat treatment gives it a steel structure of remarkable toughness and uniformity. This axle is designed by Buick engineers, forged and built complete in the Buick factory, directly under the supervision of the men whose reputations depend upon its serviceability. From its I-beam section to its drop forged steering connections, every . detail is worked out to perfection. The Buick front axle is typical of the perfectly controlled quality that gives Buick cars their unusual capacity for service.

The club owners are also re quired to share more liberal!; this season with the other magnates of the league than in past years for th will divide just half of their portion of the receipts with the clubs that trailed them in the pennant race of 1919. rvn jHere Are the 1919 j National A.
