the management of one boom has
been continuously in the capital since
the cold cheerless days of last win

Deen IN the keeping OF the two seha-

TaggarI, national committeeman from
Indlana proposed at a banquet of 100
Indiana Democrats that, from that
hour until the winning ballot in the
national convention, Indiana be for
Thomas R. Marshall for president.
During the last week anticipating
the adjournment of congress and the
consequent scattering of the mem
bers of the delegation, the Indiana
senator's and representatives have
been holding informal conferences to
the end that the Marshall boom
should be kept we'll to the fore.
By common consent the details OF
the Marshall candidacy were placed
in the hands of Representative Lin
coin Dixon, member OF the ways and
means committee. He is the recog-
lized head of the boom. At the same
time each senator and representative
is constituted power unto himself
to let no opportunity go by to for
ward the Marshall cause. Mr.. Dix
on has kept in touch with leaders in
a great many states and is greatly
encouraged with the Marshall pros
poets.

Governor Aycock will retire from the
Senatorial race, and will not be a
candidate before the primary, and
asking me as a close personal friend
of the Governor, if the report has
any foundation in fact, is Just re-
ceived.
The report is, wholly and absolute
ly false. l have. recently spent sew
eral days in company with Governor
Aycock, and I assure you without re-
servation that he is not only in the
race to stay but from assurances re-
cefved from all sections of the State,
he fully expects to receive the nomi-
uation
The integrity of Aycock is no less
thoroughly established with all class
es Of people of this State than is his
ability and militant virility. No man
having the love of truth, or the fear
of Gc.d before his eyes can call him
"a gutter" He wears no mans col
lar This rumor can originate only
from those unfriendly to Governor
Aycock's Senatorial aspirations. He
could not be in this race for the pur-
pose of withdrawing later in the in
terest of any other candidate and not
be dishonest man or a fool, and no
one can question his honesty inte-
gritty or his intelligence =

questioning in regard to the state of

have gone. The pastoral call is now
usually little chat upon the wealth

or local gossip of a friendly, social
nature. I'm not paid for preach
ing" said one clergyman. That's
the least of my duties. I'm paid
largely for attending thimble parties
and pink teas, and for leaving call
ing cards around the parish"
Many clergymen no doubt turn
their backs upon the ministry con-
vinced in their own minds that they
can serve God and their fellow men
Just as acceptably in other ways and
places. Still others labor on year
after year upon meager salaries that
permit of nothing being laid by for
age and declining years-facing the
certain retirement to smaller and
more obscure fields as their years in
crease. 1t is the age of young men
in the ministry, as it is the age of
young men in business. The dead
line" is no longer co. it is creeping
steadily down into the sos and 40s
I'VE want a young man who can
hold our young people," is the cry
going up from countless pastorless
churches. In medicine and law age
and ripened experience bring the
larger demand and the better COM
pensation. In the churches the half
baked 'theologue'' is at a premium
When he becomes seasoned and
knows full we'll how to minister to
the sorrow and sin he finds every
where about him, he becomes a past
number, an antique" ready to be
laid on the shelf. He has crossed
the dead line. Now let him go to
keeping bees or raising chickens. He
is no longer wanted--save in eXcep-
tional instances-so exceptional that
it proves the rule
Just how raw and inefficient the
average "thelogue" is apt to be upon
graduation is evident from a recent
statement by President Hamilton of
Tufts college to the effect that of the
0 students now in the Crane theo-
logical school of that institution, four
were admitted conditioned, and four
more were so far from having COM
pleted high school education that
they could only be admitted as spec
ial students.
Ye gods! Is it any wonder men
turn from the ministry and seek a

That heavy batting which has been
the wonder of fans and the despair of
pitchers since the opening of the 1911
base ball season will be somewhat cur
tailed by natural causes in the near
future. Without becoming too explicit
or attempting to pry into the trade
secrets of the manufacturers of base
balls, it cannot be questioned that the
next supply of balls for the clubs of
the major and minor leagues will not
be as lively as the ones now in use. In
other words it will be deadened Ac-
cording to a factory representative the
present lively ball which is breaking
down the fences and produced 367 runs
in three days in the major leagues was
due to tip from the base ball powers
that there was not enough batting to
suit the fans. Now the tip has gone
forth again that fans are being held at
the games until they get cold dinners
because Of the great increase in bat
ting. 1t is not intended to revert to
the cid ball which produced so many
few hit contests and made many
championship affairs merely a battle
between pitchers, but to strike hap
py medium about the middle ground
between the old ball and the new.
