ST think that the late Frank Selee
was the best team manager and Frank
Chance the best first baseman / ever
played under" said Johnny King,
manager of the Boston Wardmen, &C
Cording to a New York newspaper.
"Selee really made the Cubs cham
pions. He developed Chance into a
first baseman, discovered Evers, Reul-
bach, Tinker and Schultz, and gave
ME the first opportunity to catch be-
hind the bat. Selee was a natural
judge of playing talent. He wasn't
btlldozer on the bench, but an even
tempered, fair-minded critic OF the
mistakes made by his players. Had he
lived he would have received all the
credit for the greatness of the Cubs
instead of Chance
Il don't believe Chance can pick up
and develop young players. but he
knows how to make the men placed
In his care play ball. He is a strict
disciplinarian and a great field gen.
eral AS a first baseman and batter
he was at the top of the heap and set
winning example.

remember one day he fined King Cole
5000 for poor pitching. Cole was as
mad as a halter, and turning to
Chance he cried:
"Tm going to quit the team and go
into the navy!'
"Tf you do ~ give you $500 and
remit the fine plied Chance, earn

the Cubs.
Fielder Jones, in my opinion, was
another great baseball leader. He
knew how to drive his men. We had
a great team when the White Sox,
called the hitless wonders, beat us in
a fall series, feat that was entirely
due to Jones pluck and pugnacity.
Too bad Jones quit baseball, for he
would have kept the White Sox al
ways near the top.

Graw, too. He keeps the Giants hus-

A REAL NEWSPAPER.

A newspaper isn't simply q bare
chronicler of events. It is personal
ity. It comes into your house almost
as member Of your family.
What sort Of person do you like
to have visit you?
He ought to be honest, courageous,
no hypocrite. and gentleman, with
real interest in you, ready to lend
hand II you need help. Cheerful
ness and good humor are excellent
qualities, and a wide range of in
terests.
What do you find in The Star?
1t has opinions, Of course, and 1t
speaks them out freely. They are its
own and they are not influenced by
outside interests. The square deal is
its platform.
In handling news it observes the
decencies and amenities Of life. It
never wantonly brings shame or sor-
row to any home. It's advertisements
are Ctcdus
If the Twin City Star does not
bring you something Of interest in
any particular issue. 1t has failed by
SO much that week. It takes Of its
hat and apologies for having bored
you as visitor.
But it trusts this doesn't often hap
pen. Not often, does it?
Begin New Year with a subscrip-
ton to Negro paper. If wou do not
subscribe to a local paper, send for
your home paper. But pay for 1t.
Race papers are a necessity, and
must be supported by individuals.
Every Negro should in some way con-
tribute something towards the ad-
vancement of the Negro Press.

CONGRESSMAN DEFENDS NEGRO
WOMAN.
Iowa Representative Comes to Rescue
Of Aged Negro Washerwoman
Knocked Down In Street.

Wash. D. c. Jan. 12.-Shooting out
his right arm with the skill and
strength of a pugilist, Representa-
tive N. e. Kendall, of Iowa, last night
planted his fist squarely on the lower
point Of the jaw Of white ruffian
who had upset an aged Negro washer
woman and scattered her basket of
fresh-laundered clothing in the dirty
slush at the busy corner of Fifteenth
street and New York avenue north
west.
AS the hard fist came in contact
with his jaw, the rufrian went down
and out, lying motionless in the snow
for several seconds, and then rising
to sitting posture and gazing stupid
ly and with blinking eyes about him,
as though trying to guess whether he
had been kicked by a mule or struck
with sledgehammer, meanwhile
nursing his swelling jaw with both
hands.
Representative Kendall assisted the
aged Negro woman to her feet,
aided her in gathering her wash, and
helped her on a Fourteenth street
car, Diminishing her EXPLANATIONS of
thanks and gratefulness with smile.
Then he turned and left the vicinity,
going to the New Willard to keep an
appointment.
The Representative was going from
his apartments in the Ontario to the
hostelry when he saw the assault on
the Negro woman. He had just
alighted from the car when he saw
two white men jostle against the
woman and then address her in pro-
fame language. He stopped a second
and then saw one of the white men
knock down the woman with a blow
of the fist. Mr.. Kendall strobe across
to the man and felled him.

II seems to be generally accepted by
naturalists and the world at large that
the domestic dog is in some sense a
collateral descendant of the wolf or
jackal, says a writer In Harper's
Weekly.
A professor at the Natural History
Museum In Paris has communicated
results of his study of various canine
skulls to the academy of sciences. He
appears to have noticed certain per-
culiarities of growth which have hith-
erto escaped biologists. He states that
the skull of almost every species OF
wolf and iackal differs from the skull
Of the shepherd dog to an extent that
makes it impossible that this dog
should belong in the same classified
ton. The skull of the Indian wolf, on
the contrary, shows some points of
resemblance. This, indeed, Is the only
savage canine the top of whose head
projects like that of the dog.
There are, moreover, other charac-
teristics which the Indian wolf has in
common with the dog, and which the
ordinary wolf does not share with
them. although his origin and that Of
the dog have long been supposed 10
be a common one.
The conclusion of this scientist is
that the Indian wolf is the %progenitor
OF the shepherd dog and the blood
hound. There were two primitive races
Of dogs analogous to these which were
first domesticated in central Asia,
whence they passed to Europe, and
there seems no reason to doubt that
the bloodhound of today Is the direct
descendant OF the dog spoken OF by
the ancients as "the dog Of the age OF
bronze"
