The London Times appears to be get

development of the United States de-
cided menace to British commercial in
terests. Recently it has had an ex-
pert in this country looking the ground
over with view to determining
wherein lies the secret of Yankee ex-
cellence. It is no surprise on this side
that the commissioner reported our
mills as the best in the world. His Wis

the fact that we are attracting wide
spread attention as we'll as creating
positive alarm. If England can better
her own condition by initiating our

Some people talk about women not
having recognition these days. Why,
she's getting lots of it constantly and
in new directions too. Here, for in
stance, is Lady Sarah Wilson, sister
Of the late Duke of Marlborough, who
went out to South Africa just as a
newspaper woman, war correspondent
for the London Daily Mail, and is now
recognized as belligerent by the
Beers. She was taken prisoner while
taking notes, and General Joubert sent
word to the British military authorities
that he would exchange the noble re-
porter for a Boer woman held as pris-
oner by the British at Mafeking,
presumably any Boer woman, since
wasn't as smart as he might have
been, after all, and failed to recog-
nize his opportunity. Considering the
high rank of Lady Sarah and the fact
that she is war correspondent, and a
very bright one, he could no doubt
have successfully demanded half Il
dozen or more ordinary Boer women
in exchange for her. This is the first
time, we believe, that women have
been considered as prisoners of war,
subject to exchange, woman for wo-
man, or in any other way. Women
acting as spies have, it is true, been
taken prisoners, but spies are not .ex-
changeable. General Joubert's recog-
milton Of women should not escape the
attention of women's rights associa-
tons. j 4

General Sherman said it was, but on

The preacher at the fremont temple
in Boston recently told those of his
congregation who got up and went out
when the contribution box was started
around never to darken the doors Of
that sanctuary again. Is not this
rather shortsighted? The better way
would seem to be to let them come and
listen to The preaching Of the gospel as
ofteneas possible, to the end that they
may be made to see the error of their
ways and deposit their shekels on the
plate.

The Baseball Outlook.

Now II the winter Of our discon-
tHnt.' but, unfortunately, at the pres
ent time there is no sun Of York to
make glorious the coming summer OF
the baseball world, as in the case Of
Sh1aakespeare's great historical drama.
AZ matter Of fact, IL there were no
winter season baseball affairs would
not now be in the disgraceful state
into which our once great national
game has been dragged. It is during
these days Of inactivity in the field
that the so called magnates have the
time to get in their fine work, which
has proved so disastrous to the sport.
During the summer time, when the
game Is being played, no one has time
to listen to their vaporings. But at this
time Of year, when they can get to-
gether and scheme, as they recently
did at the meeting held in New York,
or shoot of at long range through the
press, they get in their deadly work.
To be perfectly truthful, baseball af-
fairs as carried on today are rotten to
the core. Time was-and would that
1t We're with us once more-when every
baseball team really represented the
city after which it was called, and ev-
cry man, woman and child in the place
was an enthusiastic rooter. Nowadays
things are all changed, and cities that
used to be noted as good baseball
towns can now boast of hardly a hand
full of rooters. Folks used to break al
most any engagement and give every
imaginable excuse to attend the game.
Now a man goes if he has nothing bet
ter on hand to while away an after
noon, and instead .of>wildly roofing for
the home team his only hope is that he
may see decent exhibition of base
ball.
Syndicate baseball, the prominence
given to the money making rather than
to the sporting feature of the game and
the fact that the men who control the
clubs are not sportsmen in the true
sense of the term are responsible for
the present deplorable state Of affairs.
There are two facts, however, that
stand out in bold relief against this
dark background, and they are the an
chors which will save baseball from
the reefs on which she is being batter
ed, if anything can do it. One of these
facts is that, in spite Of all innuendoes,
rowdiness. and other Objectionable
features, the honesty of the actual con-
tests has never been called in question.
No one has ever denied that the games
are fairly won and lost on their merits.
The other point is that the standard of
play is kept up. 1t would be almost an
impossibility to expect the players to
be more expert than some Of the stars
Of bygone years, but it is something to
say that those of today are as clever,
quick and have as good a knowledge
Of the game as any of the old timers.
