STRIKE DELAYS THE SHACKELTON TRIP Stockyards Dispute at Sydney, N. S. W. Prevents Sailing of the Antarctic Ship Aurora. London, 7t30 a. m.—A dispatch to Reuter’s Telegram Company from Sydney, N. K. W., states that a strike In the dockyards has delayed the de parture of the Antarctic ship Aurora, which Is to carry a section of Sir Krn est Nhackleton's Antarctic expeditions, end that the indications are that Hhaokloton will not start on his trana- Antarctic Journey until next year. Sir Ernest Hhaoklcton, with a sec tion of his expedition, left Buenos Ayres for the Antarctic region on the ship Knduranre on (yet. 26 lust. It was planned to have the expedition go south In two sections, one going on the Aurora to the Boss sea on tho New Zealand side of the Antarctic, while that headed by Kir Ernest went by way of South America. The two sections were to meet In April I*ls or st the latest In March 1916. The Sydney advices Indicate that It will be tn the latter year that tho parties will meet. The expedition plans to traverse a distance of 1,700 miles, from the Wed dell sea lo the Ross sea; after reach ing ths South Pole Sir Ernest will choose one of three routes to return, either the one taken by Scott, that i taken by Amunsden, or a third cross- | log the great Victoria chain of moun tains, It is also expected that much scientific Information will be gath ered.

First Time in Years Race Narrowed to Two Teams. / Tho •cheduling of the-g&me between Richmond Academy and the Boys’ High, of Atlanta, for the high school championship of the slate has aroused far more Interest, locally, than any football announcement of the year. It is the first time In years that the race for tho high school honor has nar rowed down to two teams —there can bo no doubting the claim of the winner of this contest to the tfctle. All other high school elevens haxsn been elimi nated, Tech High being Ihe last to go tinder when they fell before Boys’ High on "turkey day" by tho close scare of .1-0. Atlanta Fast. Accounts of the games, ln which the Atlanta aggregation has engaged in dicate that the team Is very fast, using open style play almost exx-luslvely. In their last game, forward passes and end runs constituted their general method of attack. .fudging from the low scores made their opponents, their defense must he exceptionally strong. Tech High has been rolltng up large scores on all Its opponents throughout tho season hut was unable to push a point over on Boys’ High. Two weeks prior to the Rlverslde-Rtchmond Acad emy game, Hoys’ High held the hefty Gainesville bunch to twenty points, on the grounds of their opponent* at that. With the*® fact* In mind, It may be readily seen that the locals are not to have an easy thing -on the contrary, If they expect to "cop” the big end of the TODAY'S WAR SUMMARY Russia's forces, it is reported unofficially today, have at last reached Cracow, the Austrlun fortress in northwestern Galicia, near the bound aries of Russia and Germany. An Italian correspondent at the front states that Cracow is now being bombarded by heavy Russian siege guns and that one of the suburbs Is in flames. The capture of this fortress hnH been one of the main objectives of Russia’s campaign against Aus tria, on the theory that its fall, together with that of Przemsyl, now under siege, would mean Russian ascendancy in that part of Austria which lies to tlie north of the Carpathian mountains. Other than this report there was little now Information concerning the situation in the east. The main question in the opinion of Lon don was whether the German nrmy which struck at the Russian center would ho able to extricate Itself and fall back to the border without a disaster. The Russian army operating from Lodz is striking a heavy blow at the main German force but It IB probable that some time must elapse bofore this phaie of the campaign In the east is brought to a close. OlHnions differ sharply as to the Intention of Germany concerning operations In the west. It Is reported that the allies are about to assume the offensive, that the German line has weakened perceptibly and that a new Genjian army is being rushed Into Flanders. In view of these con flicting statements it <s Impossible to discern even the probabilities of tho near future. Eiglitln at present apparently is confined to operations in the Argonne. Russia’s campaign against Turkey likewise has reached a period of in activity. The latest report from theßusslan army of the Caucasus Is to the effect that no movements of importance are under way. There'll Come a Time when constant leaning on coffee is bound to result for most people in shattered nerves, heart flutter, bilious ness. headache, or some other of the well known coffee ills. It’s the drug, “caffeine,” in coffee—about 2 1 /* graina to the cup—that cause* the trouble. If coffee disagrees, try POSTUM —the pure food-drink, free from the drugs, caffeine and tannin, or any other harmful substance. Nothing but the goodness of choice wheat, roasted, with a bit of wholesome molasses, enters into Postum. A beverage of delightful taste and aroma, used with benefit by young and old. “There’s a Reason” Postum comes in two forms: Regular Poatum, wftich has to be boiled— 15c and 25c pkgs. Instant Postum —soluble—made in the cup, instantly —3oc and 50c tins. Cost per cup is about the same for both kinds. Grocers Everywhere Sell POSTUM THE AUGUSTA HERALD.

The Academy equarl in in good trim, being fcA*tunate enough to escape Inju ries in the Porter game. Kvery man will he on edge for the battle, knowing it to be the big game of the season. Coach Wilson knows waht will consti tute the strongest line-up and will start the game with the most formidable line up of the season. In this connection, a word should be said concerning the good work of Mlege) In the Porter game. In the second half, he was sent in to run the team from the quarter's position and he did it in the best of style. The entire team work ed with a snap absent in the beginning and put up the best game of the season. The ball kept in Porter territory practically the entire half, a penalty or two at critical moments being all that prevented one or more scores This, too, against the best team the locals have met this season. A Line on Opponents. Major Butler will assist Coach Wilson during th*' week by outlining the forma tions used by Boys’ High In their Thanksgiving game. Major Butler was In Atlanta for the purpose of refereeing the Tech-Clemson game and took ad vantage of the opportunity to get a line on the two prep teams in their morn ing game. Their is no keener student of the game than Major Butler and his analysis of the Boys* High style of play will be of Incalvulable assistance in t tie training preparatory to Fridays game.

Poking.— Wang’ Chin-Hsing, the ex prefect of Bhuntienfu, the metropoli tan district in which Peking is situ ated, ha* been executed by shooting because of bribery and corruption In the selling of offices under him, Wang Chin-Hsing held the military rank of lieutenant general. The case has caused great excite ment in political circles in China, es pecially because General Wang was a personal friend of Yuan Shi Kai. It !« reported that the president tent an emissary to the family of the gene ral informing them of his regret at having.to fulfill the law In order to stamp out corruption, and of his in tention to provide for the maintenance of the family. Many minor officials also have lost their Uvea because of dishonesty and pplum smokers continue to die at the handß of the soldiers. The governor of the Important province of Kan Su has been dismissed from office be cause he did not believe In the sin cerity of the president when recently orders were issued that the time-hon ored custom of aending rich gifts to tho emperor on tho anniversary of his birthday was not to be followed in the case of the president. TO UNVEIL TABLET IN OCTAGON HOUSE Washington.—President Wilson will unveil on Wednesday a marble tablet at the Octagon House, one of Wash ington’s historic landmarks, commem orating the ratification of the treaty of Ghent there one hundred years ago. The occasion will be the annual con vention of the American Institute of Architects which meets here this week. The Octagon House was built in 1100 and was for 18 months the home of President and Mrs. Madison when the White House was burned by the British In 1814. Tt wa.s noted as one of the social centers of the capital in the early days, but In 1850 it became a tenement for negroes. In 1899 the Institute of Architects bought the building and has since made its head quarters there. PURE WATER FOR U.S. ARMY TROOPS Wa»hington.—Army surgeons have developed a new method of purifying drinking water for troops in the field, which, experimentally, has given ex cellent results and is likely to be adapted generally. Canvas bags so closely woven as to be water-proof are used to carry the water and in each bag is dropped a glass tube con taining 15 grains of chloride of lime. This renders the water portable and destroys all disease within five min utes. The bag weighs only eight pounds.

Public Mind WHY ARE HIG HSctiOOL STUDENTS BEHIND To The Herald: It seems to me that if High School Students are behind in their work, there is something vitally wrong either with the course of study, the teacher, or the pupil. Why doesn’t the Board of Educa tion look into the matter? Is the course of study more than the normal high school student can master? If so, why not change it? There is no use in working them to death. Pos sibly it is the teacher's fault. They are not always perfect. Or, if it is not one of these, then it must oe that our Augusta high school students are boys and girls with minds just a little more feeble than those of other cities. Schools in other cities have two weeks holiday. All colleges have them. Why can’t we? Are our children more feeble mind ed than others? What a slam on this precious Augusta. Won’t the children be covered with shame at the thought of their stupidity? They will feel just as the “kept in” pupil at school feels, and it amounts to Just about that. Being “kept in” a whole week, think of it. I understand that modern educators advocate the plan of not “keeping in” children. Are we living up to the present day standards? Do you think those children will accomplish much during that week? Don’t you think that if the gentle men of the board get generous and give the usual holiday that harder Scene from "Caprice,” in which Mary Piekford will play the leading role, at The Strand tomorrow, (Tuesday) DRINK f&dffuqysTea YOUR*GROCER HAS IT. □ ILS ANYTHIN'G Cleans.
