days proceedings was the passage by,

method Of choosing license commission
ers and one relative to the fees for htth
class licenses. Senator Chase of Wind

SUNDAY SCHOOL LEAGUES
SEASON BEGINS APRIL 80

April so will be an suspicious day for the
people of Columbia Heights, and for the
other patrons of the Sunday School Athletic
Association. otherwise known as the Church
League, for on that day the opening base
ball game of the association will be played
on the league grounds at 18th and Lydecker
streets, the opposing teams being the rep
resentatives Of Calvary and Foundry, both
of which are aspirants for the league cham
pionship. Each of these teams has been
greatly strengthened over last year by the
addition of the best players from such of
last years teams as the Fourth Presby-
terrain, Guntons. Mount Pleasant Congresa-
tionaI Gurley and st. Stephens, and royal
contest Is anticipated. Already the people
of the t1Iill" are talking about this opening
game, and many OF the male and female
fans" can be seen watching the boys at
practice.
An erroneous impression seems to have
prevailed that this popular league would
this year discontinue its base ball games,
but now the admirers Of the league realize
that not only will the games be continued
this season, hut the teams represented,
namely, Foundry, Calvary, Methodist, Sixth
Presbyterian, Fifth Baptist. Metropolitan
Baptist and Ninth Street Christian, will be
stronger, individually and collectively, than
the like number of teams in the association
during the three years of Its existence.

It was not then popular as it was not pos

The Maltese dog is something we seldom

feecy coat, and can be made to resemble

the body, while the Maltese coat is wanted

In the person of NJ. Clemenceau we
have before us a Jacobin says W. 7.
Stead, writing in the Review of Re
views. To quote:
NJ. Clemenceau is to me the most au-
thentiC incarnation Of the revolution Of
1889 now eXtant in Europe. He Is the
revolution en- bloc. He shares it's hatreds;
he has lost non, Of its enthuslasms.
He Is 4 JaCobu relncarnated in the skin
of an OppOrtunist. After playing the part
of Warwick, the king maker, setting up
and pulling down one ministry after an
other, he IS now saddled with the re-
sponsiblllty of office. And as If to salute
the new minister the greatest catastrophe
in the annals of mining is followed by
strike of miners which made thousands
OF men idle.
France Is no longer the land of star
Ting dramas and moves 50 steadily
that comparison of modern careers or
events with the era Of the great revo-
luton seems farfetched. But the
French revolution itself moved slowly.
It was twenty-five years from the up
rising in 1888 to the Bourbon restora-
ton i'm 1919. Perhaps there is history
being made in France today under the
calm political surface. history rs i'm
portant, if not rs spectacular, as that
one hundred years ago.
