ter proof of skill and endurance.
So they gave the cup to Capt. EN-
erson.
For "a years the Wimbledon cup
has been the grand prize of Amer
lean long-range rifle shooting. The
Rifle Association of Great Britain
gave it to the American riflemen
as token of their good will on the
first centennial of our independ-
ence in 1876. It has been shot
for every year since then, save one,
and is covered with the names of
famous American riflemen who
have won it.
But the most eloquent entry in
its record is 1898, no contest,
Spanish war" Something more
serious than sport confronted the
crack shots of the country then.
All the men In the Wimbledon
cup class were placing the skill
acquired in peaceful service on the
battlefield. No one can say what
has become of the potential win
ner of that year. Perhaps n
body lies in Cuba or the Phil,
pines.
The Spanish war was won OF
the rifle ranges at Seagirt. Our
next war is being won at Camp
Perry now.

CHARGES MADE
AGAINST ChOA1E

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Aug. 81.
Lawyers attending the Bar asso-
citation here were astonished at the
publication in an afternoon news
paper of the report that sensational
charges had been preferred against
Joseph Choate Of New York, former
ambassador to Great Britain. All
agree that charges were made twice
before in the meetings of the asso-
citation, but most of the delegates
were in ignorance of their presenta-
tion at todays session.
George Chamlee of Tennessee, on
the foor of the convention today,
announced he had petition to Of
fer The petition, which was re-
ceived without being read in the
convention, contained the charges
against Choate, prepared by James
Watts of New York city. The
charges have not yet been present
ed to the grievance committee; in
fact, the grievance committee has
had no meeting here as there are
no grievances to come before them.
President Libby was asked to-
night for a statement in regard to
the matter. He replied: There is
no reason for me discussing this
affair, as there is no such matter
before the association Had
charges been referred to the griev-
ance committee no action would
have been taken within a year.

Theodore Roosevelt delivered the
following address in this city today:
today:
There have been two great crises
in our country's history; first, when
it was formed, and then again when
it was perpetuated. The former
period included not merely the rev.
olutionary war, but the creation and
adoption of the constitution and the
first dozen years of work under it,
Then came sixty years during which
we spread across the continent
years of vital growth, but of
/ growth without rather than growth
within. Then came the time of
stress and strain which eliminated
in the civil war, the period of ter
rible struggle upon the issue of
which depended the justification of
all that we had done earlier, and
which marked the second great per-
iod of growth and development with
in. The name of John Brown will
be forever associated with this sec
ond period of our nations history;
and Kansas was the theater upon
which the first act of the second
of our great national life dramas
was played. 1t was the result OF
the struggle in Kansas which deter
mined that our country should be
in deed as well as in name devoted
to both union and freedom, that
the great experiment of democratic
government on national scale
should succeed and not fail. 1t was
J heroic struggle; and, as is inev
liable with all such struggles, it hat
also dark and terrible side. Very
much was done of good, and mucl
also of evil; and, as was inevitable
in such period of revolution, Otter
the same men did both good ant
evil For our great good fortune
as a nation we, the people of thu
United States as a whole, can nov
afford to forget the evil, or a
least to remember it without bitter
ness, and to fix our eyes with prid
on the good that was accomplished
Even in ordinary times there ar
very few of us who do not see tn
problems of life as through a glas
darkly; and when the glass
