1t is TO be hoped that Garry Hermann
will not back down from his present
stand in insisting upon an airing Of the
whole matter Of the deal Of ball players
between the Cincinnati and Philadelphia
National League ball clubs.
According to the latest reports the
president of the Cincinnati team Will
not agree to meet Horace Fogel to talk
over a compromise in the case. which
would indicate that Hermann is de-
termined to find out just who owns the
Phillies and what connection that fran
cbise has with the Chicago Cubs.
In taking this position Hermann is not
only putting himself in the proper light.
but Is doing the National League a
distinct favor, for if the d-~elopments
show that syndicate baseball exists in
the senior organization. the revelations
Will be given the publicity which will
probably result in it's elimination.
Whatever other charges have been
made against the American League, no
one has ever attempted 20 show that
any one person or set of persons had
interest in more than one club. This
lnslnuation has been aimed at the Ma
uonal League, and the present case in
DISPUTE will probably clear the whole
matter.

WHO WILL CAPTURE
GRAND PRIZE RACE?
If American Cars Hold Out
One of Them Should
Win.
By HARRY WARD

VIII an American car and driver win
the grand prize race at Savannah Sat
urday? That is the burning question
with motorists.
The prestige Of the foreign cars and
drivers, gained through years of racing
in Europe and added to by their re-
peated victories on this side of the wa
ter In recent years when the motor rae
ing game was young, has caused them
to be the favorites in the big race this
year, as they were two years ago.
Whether the Americans will demon
strate in this race that they have over
taken their rivals remains to be seen.
one racing authority believes the
Americans have arrived. In maintain
ing his position he advances some
dope" which appears to sustain his Do
sition admirably. His calculations are
mainly based on the performances OF
the cars in the last grand prize race in
Savannah and IN the recent Vanderbilt
Cup race. When Wagner, in a Fiat,
won the grand prize two years ago, ne
made the distance at an average Speed
OF O5.0S miles an hour. Grant, in the
AlcO, won The Vanderbilt last month at
an average speed Of COL miles an hour
or two hundredths of u mile faster
tnan WaguerS time at Savannah
Close behind Grant, and losing only by
voluntary stops of several minutes,
which caused MIN to finish Is seconds
behind the winner, was Joe Dawson IN
biarmOn car. SiXty-SiX seconds behind
Dawson was another American car and
driver. That the Savannah course two
years aSQ was faster than the Wander
bilt course is unquestioned. Then with
the American cars this year making
faster time on a slower course than me
foreigners made on the fast Savannah
course, il looks like the American cars
OF this year are faster than the foreign
cars OF two years ago. II this were All,
The dope would show the Americans
as winners when racing on the same
course with the foreigners.
Ihere yet, however, remains an i'm
portant factor 20 be considered. This Is
the length of the race The better time
OF Grant and Dawson in this wears
vanderbilt over that Of Wagner and
Hemery In the grand prize two wears
ago, was made in a shorter race. WaR-
ner bo-ob miles an hour was Sustained
through race OF 402.S miles Grants
victory was gained in a race OF On OS

TO WASH CHAMOIS GLOVES
Directions for Cleaning Fragile Artl.
cIes Which Will Be Well
Worth Remembering.

In washing channels gloves do not
wiring them or even squeeze very dry
as with ordinary glove cleaning. The
skins pull easily and wringing breaks
the tender fabric.
Put the rinsed gloves into a thick
Turkish towel and press out most OF
the moisture, then hang them in =
strong current of air to dry. Fasten
the pair together by buttons and hang
with fingers down.
The shrinking, of which many wo
men complain In channels glove wash.
ing, can be overcome by drying the
gloves on the hand, after they come
from the Turkish towel and few
minutes airing.
Rub gently until dry. The heat OF
the hand makes this drying quicker
process than most women imagine.
and there is little danger of taking
cold
Do not neglect rinsing as well as
washing in soapy water. If you do not
wish your gloves to stiffen.

PROBLEMS MANY YEARS OLD
Children Of Today Puzzle Over Them
Just as They Did Thousand
Years Ago.

When King Alfred the Great was
reigning over England, thousand
years ago, school children pondered
over problems in arithmetic much as
our boys and girls do now.
Here are two taken word for word
from a lesson book Of that day:
1.-THE swallow once invited the snail
to dinner He lived just one league
three English miles, from the spot,
and the snail travelled at the rate OF
only one inch day. How long
would it be before he dined?"
AN old man met child. Good
day, my son. he said. May you live
as long as you have lived, and as
much more, and thrice as much as all
this; and if God gives you one year

GlohuIar LIGHTNING.

Yesterday the inhabitants of Lewis
ham were provided with specimen
of that curious phenomenon known as
"globular lightning" 1t is what Is
commonly called the fire ball." and
as it persists for several seconds 1t Is
obviously of a totally different charac-
ter from any other form of lightning.
1t is much less brilliant than ordinary
lightning, and it's brightness appears
to be that of iron at the red hot"
stage.
1t is not, as some accounts might
lead one to infer, solid missile, but
it is always spherical and appears to
fall from thunder cloud by its own
gravity, sometimes rebounding after
striking the ground.-London Globe.

Is Roosevelt a POpuIist.

Jacob S. Coxey, of "Coxey
Army" fame, says: "Roosevelt is
a populist and is simply stealing
most of the thunderbolts that
some of us have been hammering
at for the last Is years. II the
American people were thinkers,
they would realize how ridiculous
are the claims he is making on
conservation. Why, he only tried
conservation after everything
worth conserving has been stolen
or given away. Those who are
called progressives today have
the same program that the popu.
lists had Is years." How is this,
Colonel? IL Coxey to go into the
Ananias club, or do you admit
that his statements are practically
the facts?

board should agree to accept less
than that amount. This amend
