Not an Insult.

Maj. Lomax, Of the United States
army, visiting in Canada soon after the
war of 1912, was entertained in Quebec
by the officers of one of the royal regi-
ments. After dinner, speeches and
toasts being iii order, one of the Brit
ish officers, having imbibed too gener-
.ously of the champagne, gave as a
toast: ''The president of the United
States, dead or alive" The toast was
accepted with laughter. Maj. Lomax
rose to respond, saying: Permit me
to give as my toast: The prince re-

Waterloo Will Be Strong,

A base ball club has been organized
at Waterloo. A. J. Roach was elected
manager, VIM. Wick, secretary, and P.
FL. Bolger, treasurer. Among the list
of players is G. w. Davies, who for
many years has played professional
positions with New York and Cleve
land. He also PLAYED with Milwaukee.
In all his professional playing he oc-
cupied the pitchers box, and at one
time was considered to have no equal
in the business. He left the profession
to study medicine, and when he was
privileged to write ON. D." after his
name he located at Waterloo, about
nine miles from his old home, Colum-
bus. He ought to be able to keep the
batting talent Of this and neigh boriDg
counties guessing. R. S. (Jumbo) Keel
is another of the players. He is we'll
known as ball player throughout this
state. He will be the receiving end of
the battery. He caught Davies when
he played amateur ball, before he en-
tered the professional ranks. This will
certainly make a stronger battery than
any opposing team can hope to secure.
The balance of the team is made up of
younger men, OF boys who have no re-
putation as ball players. Games be-
tween this team and our boys should
prove interesting, and we hope to see
them often come together the coming
season.-JeferSOn Banner.
