Toronto today and tomorrow and then
Buffalo. The Bisons will be here until
Sunday. and will return with the Tigers
a week from Sunday for another battle.
The schedule does not provide for 1t,
but McGinnity will.
McGinnity promised Crisp a $40 bill
for a pair of baseball shoes for the
terrific smuggling he has done in the
past several days.
1t was payday for the Tigers Satur-
day. All received their full half months
paw. Some received big advances, but
not a penny was deducted.
All the stands and buildings at the
local park are equipped with up-to-date
fire extinguishers, and small blazes
caused by lighted cigars and h care
less dropping of matches will be given
prompt attention.
Billy Mcconnell. the official scorer,
was so eager to get to the ball park
that he picked another coa instead of
his own at Feary's.

Just eight years ago, but the Office
holders. who already cause In

TOO EASY.

Unique in American municipal annals
Is the case Of Robert c. Winters, OF
New York. Up to October 1 he was
assistant superintendent Of buildings
in the Bronx, with a snug salary Of
$4,000 the year. He resigned on Oc-.
.tober 1. When pressed for his reason
he said that there vas not an average
Of two hours work a day in the job.
and that the job was not needed. He
declared that he did not propose to
take money without returning it's
equivalent in service. He urged that
all such sinecures be abolished.
If there is ever such an establish
ment as a municipal hall of fame, Win
ters' name should lead all the rest.
Such self-sacriicial frankness and
patriotism are rare qualities.

PENNSYLVANIA District, received a rude
shock the other day when the United

young standpatter attempted to work a
postal frank graft in distributing agri-
cultural reports through the mails for
campaign purposes. He borrowed the
franks Of Senator'S Penrose,and Oliver.
He never has been a member of Con-
gress, and never will be, as Wilson, his
Democratic opponent. will settle hat
matter In. short order.
Peaslee sent out a great mass
of printed stuff, and the Gov
Iernment suspects that he still
owes some more money on his
little graft. The funny thing is that
the agricultural pamphlets this young
man was sending out were Just twelve
years old. The distribution Of antiques
is not likely to add to the popularity
of this Pennsylvania law-breaker. II
the matter We're handled strictly, there
might be a jail sentence for the young
man, but he will probably get as Sc
we're a sentence as he deserves from the
honest voters of his district.

"TnIs KING BUSINESS.

The Springfield Republican Views the
future with the utmost composure,
believing hat nothing is safer In
this country than the republican form
of government" The only fear 1t has
is that the people, alarmed by their
own excuses in hero worship, shall
turn and tear him to PIECES" Every
body knows who is meant, and may
we be there to see. Just as the brutes
in Texas and Illinois rejoice in saving
pieces Of the rope with which men
have been hanged or bits OF charred
skin of men Who have been burned,
would many persons seek to get some
OF the pieces when the event which
our staid Massachusetts contemporary
predicts takes places. It might be bet

Besides. when n comes to think
about It and tries to appreciate the
public service he has rendered in the
past one is astonished at the poverty

of the foundations is not the surest

THE CHURCH MUNICIPAL.

One of the most notable topics now
under discussion IN the religious world
is the proposal of DR.. Washington
GLADDEN., the famous congregationalist
minister of Ohio, that municipal
churches shall be established In every
town and city. The proposed institu-
ton comes nearer to- that beautiful
church based on the brotherhood Of
man described by Charles Ram Ken
nedy in The Servant In the House
than anything else which has come to
our notice in some time.
The idea OF DR.. GLADDEN. is no to
establish "a new denomination, so to
speak. He uses the word Church
broadly and not in the strict sense
in#which we usually speak Of such an
organization. His idea is shat there
should be an organization made UP
OF representatives of all the churches
of a town or city, and that this orr
ag~anization should conduct in a sys-
tematic and ~businesslise way every
phase OF charitable and benevolent
work.
What Dir. GLADDEN. would do can be
done without much trouble to the
churches. His municipal church will
simply mean the revesting the control
of charitable worksin strictly religious
bodies Instead OF IN municipal and
uuasi-religious charitable organizations
|He believes that the churches have un-
dergone "a slackening Of their power
because the charitable and benevolent
work which they should do has been
greutly absorbed BY outside agencies

4 VICTORY OF PEACE.

Russia ana turkey nave submitted
to The Hague Conference the issues
outstanding between them as to the
indemnities which Turkey agreed
to pay Russia ~thirty-three years ago
as a result of the Russo-Turkish War.
This is a great triumph for arbitration,
Inc constitutes additional evidence that
the nations OF the world are abandon-
ing the appeal to arms as a mode for
the settlement of International dis
putes.
The indemnities which Turkey owed
to Russia were extremely large. a good
deal more thvn Turkey could afford to
pay. Poor management has impaired
the governmental finances of Turkey
and this factor alone greatly retarded
the discharge Of the obligation4to the
dominion uf the Gear. Turkey lost
IRoumania some time ago then Bull
garia ceased to pay tribute. and these
two events further complicated the
situation. for the Ottoman Empire then
claimed set-offs. These claims. Russia
denied. Many questions as to the in
%terest to be paid on this huge debt
have arisen and are as yet unsettled.
These ~indemnities have served as a
club which Russia has held over the.
head of Turkey for many years. II
Turkey began to do something which
tbsde fair to prejudice Russian interests,
Russia brought up this question and

the greatesr advances made In the
