European Countries Doing Nothing.
What are the European countries do
ing for the moral uplift Of South Amer
lea? Some of them are allowing their
anarchistic and revolutionary members Of
society to emigrate. Others are sending
their celebrated champions Of free thought
and socialism, that take no account OF
God. and to lecture to university students
and the educated classes.
From the European press there go
every month to South America thousands
of indecent pictures, vicious literature and
passion kindling films from the cinemato-
grapll--not to mention many vicious
characters who go to perform on the
South American stage.
What are Great Britain and the Uni:eS
States doing for the moral regeneration
of South America? With shame we must
confess that the primary motive OF the
majority Of Engl!sh-speaking foreigners
In South America Is the making of
money. 1t must be admitted that now
more adequate attention Is given to the
eigner, but he does not largely concern
himself with the morals of the Latin
people with whom he lives and works.

ton recognizes an obligation. and for
nineteen years has endeavored to meet
1t by establishing model associations in
the centers of South America. We can
give no such record of growth as in
Japan, China and Korea, but progress
has been constant.
This great organization now exists in
three capital cities, as well as three other
centers, and has a total membership OF
about 5000 men. 1t began operations in

George Fl. Harding. who lived alone in
the northern part of the town. was
found on the doorstep of his home by

smoke pouring from the windows to-

a kerosene lantern which had appar-
emily been tipped over and broken,
scattering the burning oil over Hard
ing's clothing. He had succeeded in
smothering the flames which enveloped
the lantern but his efforts to put out
the fire in his clothing were in vain
and from them the house had taken
fire. The property damage was not
heavy.
Harding was son of the late Cap
tain Hiram Harding. a character of the
town in former days. The son had fol-
lowed the sea. He was 81 years of age

that all of the regulars can be eXpeced to

According to President Navin and Man

stated, however, that Walter Schaler will

Pittsburg to Open
Season Wednesday.

Pittsburg, Pa. April 9.-Piltsburg will
open the season on Wednesday at Gin
cinnati with the same lineup as it did III
the opening game with st. Louis last
year. except that Hunter will guard the
initial corner, whereas a year ago Bud"
Sharpe took care of it. Tonight it is as
sured here that the batting order for the
first game will be:
Byrne. Leach. Clarke, Wagner. Miller,
Hunter. Wilson, Gibson, Camnitz. 1t is
almost certain that CamnitZ will pitch.
He has pitched the opening game in each
of the past three seasons and won them
all.
The Pittsburg club has not opened at
home since 1899, when it was beaten by
Cleveland to 2.
Reports reaching the home city from the
team have inspired the fans with assur-
ance that SO far as physical condition
goes Clarke's men ought to have shade
the advantage over their opponents.
While Cincinnati has been trying to play
exhibition games at home in cold wealth
er, Pittsburg has been coming from the
South by gradual stages and good wealth
er has apparently followed the club.

gained Tuesday evening it showed. This

Monster Crowd.

Cincinnati, Ohio, April 9.-In case
fair weather prevails the National
baseball season here next Wednesday
at League park will receive more pat
rons than ON previous occasions. Base
ball is at fever heat owing possibly to
the MANY predictions by leading base
ball writer's that Cincinnati will finish
one, two. three.
Every reserved seat has been sold
for the game with Pittsburg and in
anticipation of a record-hreaking at
tendance 5000 circus seats were erect
ed in the outfield.
The Cincinnati team is far from good
condition. Since it's arrival from the
Southern training quarters ut Hot
Springs. Ark, two weeks ago it has
encountered only one day of fair
weather.
AS a result seven men have been re-
ported sick with cold. NotWithstand
ing this Manager Griffith believes his
regulars will round into form in time

Chicago Champs
In Splendid Trim.

Chicago, April 9.-Better prepared TO
pIay championship baseball than since
the spring of 1906. the Chicago team,
champions of the National League,
will omen the season here Wednesday
with the st. Louis Club. Manager
CHARGE believes Chicago will again win
the pennant but in the same breath
names New York as the most forinld-
able contender.
The team is in excellent condition
and is almost the same that Won the
championShip last year. The third base
position alone is changed. Heine ZIm-
norman has been picked to fill the
place made vacant by the veteran
Harry Stenfeidt, who was sold to St
Paul.
Although Pitcher overall is lost to
the club Manager Chance is pinning
his faith upon Mordecai Brown, who
has won four pennants for the club IN
the past five years. Reulbach and
Pfeister. veteran pitchers, are going at
top speed, and Chance expects much
of til 3m.
Six new players have been added this
season, and it appears as if four Of
titiH VIII be ittaiiS'. ii'H 'i' '5'''tit
and Doyle, utility players: Saioro. a
promising first baseman and Ball. an
outfielder.
1t is probable that Reulbach will op
pose st. Louis in the opening game,
with King behind the bat.
Much is expected of the Chicago
American League Club this season.
Manager Duffy has the material for a
team of veterans or youngsters, which,
ever may prove best. The team will
open the season at Detroit with this
probable lineup:
Mcconnell second base, Lord third
base, Ieider shortstop. DOugherty left
field. Callahan center field, Mcintyre
right field, Jones first base. Sullivan
catcher and Walsh pitcher.

Tying.
The Washington team, minus Walter
Johnson, who refused tn sign Il con-
tract for a salary less than $500 a
Year. returned today from the spring
training camp at Atlanta. Twenty four
men were in the squad, including Ain
smith. Henry, Somerlot and Cunning
ham, recruits of the latter part of last
season; Hughes, the veteran pitcher
obtained from Minneapolis. and several
promising new recruits, among them
ConWay, Miller and Bunting. President
