John Mccarthy. the poet OF the
Rauble IN Central Park. took his pen
IN hand last night and wrote these few
lines:
How sheridan Did the Greek.
G%iorganfas seized the discus and poised
It in his right
And glaIed in plying scorn at his
rivals ranged around
Then he breathed hard and braced him
self. and using all his might.
He shot tho missile in the air as he
gave a mighty bound.
VI. yowl' one hundred thousand
Greeks exclaimed in lusty siee;
"Yi. yow!' And how they danocd
around their man who sped the
spherei
They Rugged and Kissed tho giant. while
as far as eye could see
The multitude kept waving hands:
King Ed exclaimed lear. earl
Then sherdsp from Bohoia, In the
glens OF sweet Mayo.
Stepped over 10 the circle and lin
sered UP his thews;
Then he twisted halfway over and he
swung around quite slow.
And he flung the disc OF metal in n
style hat couldn't lose.
Then as tho missile skippered far. FAR
into the air.
Martin peered quite calmly. Ind he
said That's twenty-three."
And the Stars and Stripes soon wove
alost and everybody there
Knew the Mayo Kid had skinned the
Greek; SO here Is three times

Interested Persons Confer mt wash
instOn to Lay Plans for
Better Laws.

WASHINGTON, March 13,-The third OF
a series Of conferences in which practl-
cally every branch of the publishing in
terests are represented, began at the
library of congress today for the purpose
of completing for the action OF congress
codihcation and of amendments to the
copyright laws. The first and second con-
ferences were held in New York in May
and November Of last year. They were
initiated by Herbert Putnam, librarian of
congress. at the suggestion of the chairman
of the senate committee on library. The
two previous sessions resulted in the tenta-
tive draft of the proposed codifcation, and
at the present meeting it is contemplated
to complete the work that congress may
have the result at the present session. d.
The meeting today was attended by about
sixty of those interested in the work. They
represent the American Copyright league,
the American Bar association, American
Dramatists club, American Library asso-
citation American Press Publishers asso-
cia:ion, American Publishers Copyright
league, Association OF Theater Managers of
Greater New York. international Typo
graphical union. Photographers Copyright
league. United Typothetae and many other
organizations of similar character. II Is
expected the conference win continue for
several days. The program -contemplates
the final discussion and adoption of the
section of the proposed codihcation. At
former meetings the result indicated such
Jnanimity of opinion that a satisfactory
conclusion is predicted.
The discussion of the various sections of
the proposed codiheaton continued all
day and will be resumed tomorrow.

AVERT TELEGRAPHERS' STRIKE
Station Agents and photographers Ar
range Scale of Wages on
Southern Railway.


WASHINGTON, March 13.-The commit
tee Of five representing the telegraphers
and station agents of the Southern rail-
way last night. agreed to accept the wage
scale of that road. The wage scale as de-
cided on does not contemplate minimum
or maximum wage. but has been adjusted
with a view Of hitting each individual case.
In announcing the fact that a settlement
had been effected, ii. %. Perham, president
of the Order of Railway photographers, said:
The committee representing the telegraph
ers and station agents Is very well satisfied
with the scale agreed on. While some Of
the employees have grown a little impa-
uent since the negotiations were opened
with the Southern on December z, those
having direct charge of the matters, know
ing the immense amount OF work necessary
before an acceptable scale couid be agreed
on, have nothing but words OF praise for
the officials of the Southern
This Is the first schedule that has ever
been put In effect on the Southern. and it
was necessary for the conference to begin
at the bottom.
The wage scale as agreed on will ne per-
petual, unless a change is desired, and
then notice of thirty Gays is required be-
fore any action can be taken.
AS there was no maximum or minimum
scale fixed, 1t would, of course, be impos-
sible for me to state just what the in
crease in wages will amount to- In fact,
in such cases we prefer that such informal
ton should be given out by the company.
But from the fact that the committee is
satisfied, you can easily draw the conclu-
sion what substantial Increases have been
granted solely on individual merit.
II. B. Spencer general manager of the
Southern railway, when informed the COM
mittee had accepted his proposals. stated
that the schedule submitted by the COM
mittee had for its object the general re-
adjustment of wages along the entire
Southern railway lines.

Admiral BrOwnsOn and Lieutenant
snyder Are Censhred.
. WASHINGTON. Marcn 1S.-The subcom-
mittee named by the house committee ON
naval affairs TO investigate hazing at An
napolis made it's report TO the whole COM
mittee this morning through Representa-
tive Vreeland of New York. chairman of
the Investigating committee.
Rear Admiral Brownson is censured in
the report for exacting pledge from mid
shipmen not 20 engage Ia hazing and for
allowing the boys to think the pledge was
personal TO him and dio not hold after
Rear Admiral Sands became superinten-
dent at Annapolis Lieutenant c. p. sny-
der is also eensured mildly for having
countenanced hazing.
Graduated punishment for hazing is rec
commended by the subcommittee, which is
firmly Of the opinion that the present sys-
tenn OF expelling all midshipmen found
guilty of hazing is vicious. Rear Admiral
Sands and other oficers now at the acad-
envy are praised for the discipline they are
maintaining. and the report shows that
cadet officers have been chieffy responsible
for haEing.
As result OF its examination OF witnesses
ana records the subcommittee found that
the academy. including the class which was
recently graduated, have been guilty of
hazing and on trial could be expelled from
the academy The result would be a great
and unnecessary loss TO the government, in
the opinion OF the members Of the commit
tee, who found that many of the offenses
were trivial.
The report makes il clear that a failure
Of cadet officers 10 perform their duties
makes Il impossible for naval Officers in
charge TO maintain discipline and de-
nounced the code OF honor which permits
cadet ofhcers TO shun their duties The
committee says the present system OF
maintaing order Is correct but urges that
officers IN charge shall. be- more active In
reporting violations and shall be careful to
report all knowledge OF Violations which
they do not actually see. According 10

WASHINGTON, March 13-There are in

This delegation will return Saturday. An
agreement was made before they left
whereby nothing was to be done with the

The news that the bill was to go to

whose youth and inexperience in tourna-

Clever "out and in" play enabled Calvin

styles Of the two players were dame
trically opposed and the match resulted
in close and interesting contest. Dema-
rest who is the youngest recruit to the

execution that wars scarcely equalled by
the gritty play of the title holder. Dema-
rest drew ahead early in the contest with
runs Of forty and thirty -one in the first

BY the steadiest kind OF play Conklin
cut this down until at the halfway point
he passed his opponent. Open table work,
