BASEBALL Is A PUBLIC NECESSITY

A police court jury in Detroit has
confirmed by it's verdict the contcn-
tion of counsel that baseball is a
work of public necessity. So far as
the lower bench is concerned, Sun
day games on the diamond may con-
tinue in the White City of Michigan.
The Detroit decision is complicated
also with a point on the duty Of the
laborer to earn his hire. The honest,
Woodworking members of a great
baseball team are dependent upon
their salaries. To remain in such
physical trim that they may earn
their pay they must have the advan-
tage of a seasons continuous prac-
tice and play. Through careful at
tention to his muscles and his per-
quisites one Hans Wagner has be-
come able to support an automobile
and chauffeur; and while Hans
does not play for Detroit his case is
pertinent to the main issue. What

How large place baseball fills in
the field of popular amusement, in
the sphere of general American in
terest and in the range of everyday,

knows. Were the sport to be wiped
suddenly off the lists a void would
be left compared to which the little
emptiness following the collapse of
the race-track game in many States
would be as scoop from Nuuanu
reservoir to the crater of Kilauea.
Were an incident of dishonor to cast
a reasonable doubt on the integrity
OF professional baseball the voice of
regret would rise from every corner
| corner of the land.
Perhaps 1t was deemed superhuous
to go into these broad considerations
in Detroit. Had the case come be-

THE RULE OF EVENING CLOTHES

An incident attracting wide com-
ment arose in London some weeks
ago over the enforcement of hotel
rule requiring evening dress at din
ncr in the main dining-room. Fol-
lowing the immediate occurrence the
management of the Savoy in New
York City sent notes to 500 patrons
asking for their opinions on the
rule. The replies indicate an over
wheIming sentiment for the regula-
ton as 1t stands.
or course the Savoy Is the hotel
of Il class. 1t was limited refer
endum, therefore, to which the man
agement had recourse. Yet it Is re-
called that when the same question
of an evening-dress requirement
arose not long ago in New York in
hotel 'Hs exclusive as exceedingly
high rates can make 1t, there was n
marked difference of opinion among
patrons.
The American likes good clothes
not less than the Briton. 1t was an
American woman who remarked that
the sense of being well dressed gave
her serenity greater than that i'm
parted by the consultations of relig-
ion. But the state or being under
bonds of etiquette to associate GER
tain hours and functions with certain
fixed forms of dress is regarded some
times as irksome even, in the most
aristocratic circles of a democracy.
BritOns on duty in the tropics OBJ
serve the dnner-dress rule with
great care. It presumably marks the
barrier raised against the degenerate
ing influence of an enervating eli
mate.
Despite tradition and the vote at
the Savoy, there are signs of uneasi-
ness in modern England over the RI
gidity of the rules of dress, Accord

people from the London theaters to

MARCHING MEN OF FRANCE AND
GERMANY.

Germany attracted world attention
by holding its recent army maneuvers
In Alsace. Perhaps there was coinci-
dence only in the fact that France Il
little later arrayed her practising
army In Touraine with reference to
the military situation there in 1870
and to the problem presented by the
disposition of the French and Prus-
sian forces.
At any rate. the circumstances add
something of interest to comparisons
OF the two armies of 1908, just made
public by foreign officer who saw
the maneuvers of both.
This observer estimates that, no
less than 20 per cent. of the German
infantry fell out of the ranks during
forced marches of twenty miles day,
while of the French troops not more
than 3 per cent. were so affected. In
three French regiments, averaging
about $500 men each, the reports
state that only sixteen of the whole
number gave way. One OF these reg
iments did twenty-five miles day
for two days, over fields of stubblc,
with the loss from lameness of only
four men.
Despite the falling off of families
which has alarmed some French pa
triots, the republic shows as yet no
lack of sturdy men.
