Talks.

SACRILEGIOUS YOUTHS.


The Memorial day parade was pass
ing by.
The Sons of Veterans. acting as es-
cort Of honor. were in advance Of the
old soldiers. some Of whom were
marching. and some, too feeble to
march. were being conveyed in auto
mobiles.
Suddenly, out from a cross street,
came an auto with its "honk, honk,
honk." 1t was occupied by two gig
Cling girls and two callow boys.
The maehi e plunged into the parade
just behind the band, the silly girls
giggling and the silly boys making
noises after their kind.
And thus the machine remained so
far as the present writer could see.
An old lady who stood on the side
walk-she was the widow of a veteran
exclaimed as the tears rolled down
her cheeks:
"Oh, what a sacrilege!"
1t was sacriIege indeed. OF course
the fippant youngsters did not so re-
gard it. They were out for a holiday
lark and were unconscious of any spe-
cial irreverence.
That is the pity Of it.
The incident is typical. A disregard
Of sacred things is common to a GER
tain class of youths.
To these pert young people a day set
apart for patriotic uses makes no ap-
peal The flag is only a bit OF bunting
without significance. And patriotism?
Why, that is fit only for old men who
wear bronze buttons.
Is it not 80?
And this uncaring, Indifferent dispo-
sition is often found to exist along
side a seeming contempt for parental
authority, disregard for the aged
and a general recklessness for the
rights Of others.
Perhaps 1 am an old fogy. but do you
know what l wanted TO do with the
saucy quartet Of the auto?
wanted to take them. male and fe-
male, one by one. across my knee and
teach them the first principles of de
cency and respect
Who is to blame?
Parents and teachers. II is easy to
cultivate in the heart Of a child an
understanding Of the self sacrifice OF
patriotic endeavor and a deep seated
love of American institutions.
No child thus instructed would do
what these malapert youngsters did on

DETECTIVES
GUARD TAFT
Since the GaynOr Shooting
They Have RedOubIed
Their Vigilance
SECRET SERVICE MAN
ALWAYS NEAR PRESIDENT

BY United Press Leased Special Wire
BEVERLY, Mass. Aug. 10-Since
the attempted assassination of Mayor
William j. Gaynor in Hoboken. the
secret service operatives guarding
president Taft have redoubled their
vigilance The chief executive is not
out OF their sight for a moment. while
every person approaching him is care
fully scrutinized.
1t has been the experience of the
guards that publication of such an ont
rage as that upon the mayor of New
YORK serves to give further incentive
10 cranks and Taft would prove a
shining mark for the eccentric or the
lunatic. Two secret service men have
always been on duty here. One has
patrolled the front of the house. and
me other the rear, day and night
when the President goes motoring the
men have usually followed i'm an
equally fast automobile But after the
shooting of Mayor Gaynor an addi-
tonal guard is on the step of the
Presidents car. These men are
armed with .44-calibre pistols and they
are under orders to shoot first and
ask questions later.
Guarded by Detectives.
A secret service man IS always at
the Presidents side while he COLTS
another looks over those who have
business at the Taft cottage. Even
society dowagers who call upon Mrs
Taft have to wait down the road while
the secret service men call up the
house and ascertain whether their
names appear on Mrs Tafts engage
ment book, as Mr.. Taft receives call
ers only by engagement.
Even when the President goes on
board the Mayfiower or the Sylph for
a little yaching trip, a secret service
operative is on board.
Colonel Roosevelt used to say that
the secret service operatives detailed
az the White House were the finest
body of men in the United States
employ. The eight who take turns at
guarding the President at Beverly are
picked men-picked for their discre-
ton, faithfulness and physical STAN
ina. Every one of them is a crack
pistol shot.

HOW LONG CAN CUB
COMBINATION LAST
Winning Team Has Made No
Radical Changes in
Five Years
PLAYING BETTER BALL
THAN EVER BEFORE

CHICAGO. Aug. 10.-How long can
j winning combination last? The Chi
cago Cubs have really made this a
vital question. Since 1906. when they
lost the world title to the White Sox.
10 the present day they have kept the
same old team with the exception Of
Holman in center field and a new
catcher and a trio of pitchers. Slagle
alone of that old winning combination
is gone. II is safe to say that the
Cubs never played better ball than
they have this season.
How long will IL last? Can any
team, no matter how great, hit It up
for more than five years with no radi-
cal changes? It is up to the Cubs to
prove that point now. When Stein
feldt and Sheckard joined the team
five years ago both were considered
veterans and looked upon as material
to round out the season. But they
have stuck on-and on.
Despite reports that his legs we're
hopelessly gone, Steinfeldt continues
to make his triples and homers. Like
wise he steals a base now and then
Sheckard still can pick balls off his
shoe laces and is hitting better than
since he left Brooklyn. How do you
figure II out? Is the pace set by
Chance. Tinker and Evers enough to
keep the others at their top pitch year
I'm and year out?
There are many who believe that the
Cubs will not present the same lineup
next season. Even then they will have
set a remarkable record. OF the White
Sox who faced them in the well-re-
membered world series of 1906 the only
ones left, outside of three pitchers
walsh, Smith and White) are Catcher
Sullivan and Fielder Dougherty.
Evidently Chances policy of leav-
ing we'll enough alone has born fruit.
He continually has asserted that team
work will Offset anything else. even
heavy batting. He has done more--he
has proven It. On countless occasions
the Cubs have been outhit by a wide
margin-and still won. Il is that ''in-
side" ball that many baseball follow
ers scoff at But every manager to-
day is doing his level best to install
that inside ball into his players.
Brains count for as much in baseball
as behind the telling payers window.

A Clerical Retort.

AT certain church it is the custom

clergymen that she did not wish him
to kiss her. The bridegroom did as
directed. We'll, George" said the

Cat Got Lonesome.

A sleek tiger cat that had been

and made her home with Jim the
capybara in the lion house Jim was
a most amiable water hog and did not
disturb pussy when she made a bed
for herself in a corner of his enclosure

Here a litter of kittens was born

weeks ago the old cat got lonesome

her kittens over to the deer house and
