The Anil SL Nleh0Ias.

The April st. Nicholas has two
fine stories of adventure-very diff
ferent, but with a brave lad the hero
of each. One is Ford Walsh's "The
Return Of okakok," the story of an
exiled Eskimo lads hard journey
home. The other is Frank B. Elser's
Wireless Peter" In which a plucky
lad, fascinated by the magic of wire
less telegraphy, wins out in spite Of
many discouragements.
One Of the jolliest bits Of nonsense
which has appeared in st. Nicholas
for many day are four illustrated
pages Of "The Canalboat Captains s
Story" told in jingle by Malcolm
Douglas:
I'm VERY like G. Washington, the
old man said to me;
| cannot tell whopper, which was
Just the case with G.
But that story!
OF the st. Nicholas departments
that For Very Little Folk" is es-
pecially delightful this month, with
pictures and jingles all about finger
and the play by Arthur Guiterman
Frederic B. Hodglns, Alice Turner
Curtis, Florence q. Storer, Emile
Poulsson and other child play ex-
perts.

OLDEST JACKKNIFE

A few days ago The Capital Jour-
nal unearthed an oldest jacknife
story, but there is always an older
piece of cutlery in the. world, and
here is the proof Of chat statement
from a pioneer lady Of this city.
What is more, she showed the jack
knife to the editor and there may be
more jack-knife stories forthcoming:
II see a knife record in your pa
per, which says who can beat it,"
Well, / have zone which can beat

which he had owned for a number Of
years. He carried it across the
plains the summer OF 1851 to Cali
fornia, and then returned by steamer
to New York; back to Wisconsin,
January, 1862. Then in 1864 he car
ried 1t to Oregon, landing here No

The Basis Of Civilization


ought to be written on the heart Of
every human being-no man ever
ruled other men for their own good;
no man was ever rightly the master
OF the minds or bodies of his broth
ers; no man ever ruled other men
for any thing except for their undo
ing and for his own brutalization.
The possession OF power over others
is inherently destructive-both to the
possessor OF the power and to those
over whom 1t is exercised, and the
great man Of the future, in distinc-
ton from the great man of the past,
is he who will seek to create power
in the people and not gain power
over them. The great man of the
future is he who will refuse to be
great at all, in the historic sense;
he is the man who will literally lose
himself, who will altogether diffuse
himself in the life of humanity. All
that any man can do for a people,
all that any man can do for another
man, is to set man or the people
free. Our work, whensoever, where
soever we would do good, is to open
to men the gates OF life-to lift up
the heavenly doors of opportunity.
Give men opportunity and
opportunity will give you men.
These are great thoughts expressed
in great words by a great thinker
and humanitarian. Socialist thoughts
from a Socialist standpoint, for peo-
pie to think about, Truth crushed,
shall rise again and he that will,
may learn the true principles of a
higher life.

]. R. SMITH Is
NOT 4 CANDIDATE
GOV. BROWNS CAMPAIGN MAN
AGER WILL NOT SEEK OF
FICE AT THIS TIME.

Atlanta, May 27.-Despite the many
political rumors which have been cou-
pied with his name, it may now be
stated that Hon. J R. Smith, former
successful manager for Governor
Brown, and subsequently prominent
supporter of Woodrow Wilson for
president, will seek no office-at least
not at present.
Mr.. Smith has been several times
charged with having the gubernato
rial bee. 1t was strongly intimated
before the primary of May l, that, in
the event of Wilson's success he
would be a candidate for goye9nsr
But Mr. Smith says there was ns-ter
any foundation for that reporA and
that even ii the event of a sou
victory, he would not have BEEN in
the arce. Mr.. Smith is understood to
be eor Eon. John NJ. Slaton for gov
ernor and, it is said, will give him
strong support.
Mkt, Mr.. Smith was put forward
prospective candidate for con-
from the Fifth district Wilson
leaders were looking around for a
candidate to put against William
Schley Howard, because he took the
part of Underwood in the presidential
fight. There is no doubt that Mir
Smith was strongly urged to get into
this race, but he has declined. He
says many letters were written him
seeing to get him into this race, but
he mas put it aside and is moth fa"t
a candidate for anything-at least
not now.
Regarding the race for governor
Mr.. Smith has told friends that he
would not have entered it had Wood
row Wilson got every vote in Geor-
gia, because sometime ago he prom
ised his vote and support to a per
sonal friend, and he would not under
any circumstances break that prom

Barons Tackle Volunteers Today
SINCE LAST THURSDAY BOB i
MESSENGER HAS HIT Is TIMES

With the Baron pitchers going so bad
ly there must be some reason for the
Barons winning after all. One of the
main reasons Is Bob Messenger. The
fieet-foted left fielder has been hitting
the pellet in the last Ave games at a clip
over 500 since the game of June 90
when he swatted the pill for three safe
ties out of four times at bat and scored
three runs Messenger has hit in every
game and has averaged over two runs
in each game,
On Thursday 1t wasn't Bob's fault that
the Pels nosed out the Barons and took
the game In this game he hit saf ely
three times. scored three runs and enabled
secured but a single In four trips up.
However, he made up for all of this on
Saturday, when he knocked a home run
and secured three singles In five trips to
the platter He also scored four runs
and probably won the game single handed.
Not satisfied with his record of Satur-
day. Bob tripped TO Billikenville on Sun
day and pasted the sphere for another
home run, together with three singles
and scored two of the four runs. On
Monday, Robert found the ball twice and
scored one run.
II seems wonderful that tho Barons
have q system whereby one swatter hits
on one day and the other the next. The
opposing teams have scored enough runs
recently against the Barons TO win every
game played in the week, but yet the
Barons are winning
The Barons have been travelling at a
swift clip. or the last q games played
they have copied 10. However, the Pell-
cans have even bettered this record. The
Birds have won 20 out of 20 games played

recent performances OF the young twirler
In downing the stronger clubs In the
league has caused quite bit of favorable
comment.
Umpires O'Toole and Breitenstein, in
the Commercial-Appeal, declare that
young Smith is the most promising young
right handler in the league. They say that
the juvenile has everything except a
change of pace. When he acquires this
so the jumps declare. Smith will have com
pleted his repertoire and will then be in
line for a major league trial.
This is quite a bit of nice comment
which the two jumps have handed out
and should make the young 20-year-old
wonder feel like chesty big league star.

Rowdy's big nit ii caught him square
ON the forefinger and the ex-Baron was
out of the game for two weeks
The next man to suffer was Dilger OF
the Barons Roy tipped one OF Boyd's fast
ones In much the same way that he had
done in Nashville, and out went Digger
for a series of games.
The last man TO suffer was Lee Lemon
of the Pels. who received an injury very
similar to that of Dilger and Elliott.
Pat Donohue in the last series here with
the Crackers came very near being a
fourth victim of Moran. With Tommy
Atkins pitching Roy caught a fast break
ing curve upon his forearm. The ball bare
ly grazed him, although he was allowed
his base by O'Toole. but the contact was
sufficient to defect II, and It struck Dono-
hue upon the right arm near the elbow.
Roy scampered to first as nimbly as n
mountain goat, but Patsy was forced to
take out time, while Jordan, the sue
ceedng batsman, massaged his arm. Nor

Games Today
Nashville at Birmingham.
Chattanooga at Atlanta.

Nothing to do till tomorrow" was the
watchword with the Barons yesterday as
the boys watched the heavens cloud up
and lower over them. Yesterday was an
off day with the Barons and many of
them watched the Bessemer and Gadsden
clubs do the stunt for which they receive
a healthy stipend. Dilger, as usual, kidded
the umpire. while the others enjoyed
themselves as well.
This afternoon. however. the Barons will
play the Volunteers. Bill Schwartz and
his bunch of Volunteers will join In
friendly sport with the Barons and again
ON Thursday. Nashville has been going
better lately and the Vols may make
the Barons hustle TO win.
The Baron pitchers have been going
very poorly of late, but the heavy slug
ging behind them has made up for this
and the Barons have been able to annex
the games nearly every day. This aft
ernoon 1t is probable that Foxen and
Nicely will oppose each other. Elliott is
with the Vols and is said to be in better
shape. He may not allow the Barons to
steal as easily as he did some time ago,
when the Barons ran wild on the paths
Fleharty will prsbably pitch the game
Thursday.
