Neither team had scored when the sew
enth inning rolled around, and Cashion
seemed just as formidable in this round
rs in the preceding ones. He retired
both Chase and Daniels in the seventh,
but In pitching to Paddock. he hit him on
the right leg with a sharp curve. Nat
urally this did not cause any dismay,
but Lelivelt. who is proving himself the
best hitter on the New York team, is al
ways a dangerous proposition. and he
was particularly so Yesterday. After
getting a ball and strike on him Cash

damage had been done. and New York

Inability to hit was directly responsible
for the defeat of the locals. Had a base
hit been made on any one of two or
three occasions there would have been

in danger Caldwell was at his best.
In the first inning Chase got a scratch
single with one out. but died trying to

safely after Moeller struck on. but Milan

Nationals went out in order in their half.
Cashion was never in danger in the third,
but the Nationals had a chance. because
the first man up. Henry, was given a
life when Paddock muffed pop fly from
his bat. Cashion tried to bunt, with the
result that Henry was thrown out at
second, and Moeller then hit into double
play.

GIANTS RANK THIRD, SAYS
THE VETERAN KID GLEASON
Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates Best in
National League, According to
White Sox Coach.

CHICAGO, August Skid Gleason,
comedian coach Of the White Sox. is of
the opinion that the Giants are not the
National Leagues best team. In fact,
he is inclined to rate them about third,
preferrfng the Cubs and Pirates
You'll have to hand 1t to McGraw,
though" says the ,,id. for he's al
ways got his club up in the race and
drawing the crowds.
The Cubs have always had it on the
Giants because they fight all the while
and refuse to allow McGraw to talk
them out of games. Richie beats New
York right along because he knows how
10 pitch and because he isn't afraid OF
anything in the world. As for the Chi
cago and New York outfields, there's no
infield, for Larry Doyle Is real ball
player, and a game one. As to catchers,
i wouldn't give Archer for six Indians.
Archer Better Than Meyers.
When I was with the Phillies. Meyers
could never throw out any OF our men.
and he had his troubles tagging them at
the plate. He may be improved. but I'll
take Archer for mine.
Il don't know anything about those
young pitchers or Chances. II Brown
were in shape the race would be mucn
closer. The Giants viii probably win out
for the simple reason that the strain is
bound to tell on the cubs. particularly
the pitchers. The Giants got huge lead
nor worry SO much. But it's good
thing for McGraw that he managed to
get that lead. or Chicago would beat him
out sure.

though Griffith has not made up his mind
in which one the veteran is to go. IL
the Athletics can win all three OF the
games from the Nationals they are sched-
uled to play here, Griffth's team will fall
back into third place, with but little
chance to ever get out Of that position.
On the other hand, il it can win two out

THE NAME OF EASTER

II u Derived From The Saxon Goddess
Ostera.
The name Easter Is variously ac-
counted for, but the most natural and
probable meaning is that derived from
the Saxon OsIter. which signifies to
rise But It Is known that the old
Teutons had a goddess that they called
Ostera or Eostre and that she had a
festival just about this time Of year.
The words Paques, Pasch. Paschen,
Paaske and Pask, as the holiday is
known among the French, Scotch,
Dutch, Danes and Swedes, are deriv-

Rationalists claim that Christ's death
was an allegory that had grown out
Of this paschal observance and that
as the lamb took away the sins of the
people 80 Christ represented a similar
vicarious atonement. They hold this
view partly because Of the claim that
in the old Hindu myths the history of
Christ Is foretoh, Krishna, the in

Holders Of these views Identifying
Christ with Krishna and with the sun
gods of the east are coming around to
the Christian belief, however, in so
far as to acknowledge that there was
an actual Christ; that he was a brave
and powerful reformer, a man Of elo.

healer, and that he came to his death

unpopular with their own generation

Whatever be the beliefs as to the
personality of the central figure in the
tragedy that is commemorated at this

the Easter observances had their origin
far back before the Christian era. Os-

THE WEST INDIAN IN HIS
new HOME IN AMERICA.
Quick to Take Advantage Of Every op.
portunity For Self Preserv walton.

Every West Indian immigrant has a
definite purpose in view when he lands
In New York. says the Southern Work
man. In his own country there were
activities which were wholly in the
hands Of white men, but here he can
enter upon these and assume that posi-,
ton Of natural leadership which was
denied him at home.
His ambition is aroused. A massive
race consciousness, the like of which
he has never experienced before, binds
and consecrates him to the service of
his race; the superiority Of his early
training inspires him with a new and
strange sense of power, and with this
comes the desire seen among aliens
the strong and steadfast determination
to master new society and civiliza.
ton for the sake of self preservation.
Seeing that the standard of intellec-
tual requirement in the average colored
school is below what would have been
exacted Of him In his own land. he
steadily and vigorously pushes his way
to the front and finds little opposition
in SO doing. He questions everything.
taking nothing for granted and never
resting until he can see the reason un.

American methods Of education seem
to leave too little for the mental teeth
Of the student, the whole diet being
predigested. The American student
usually makes a better recitation, re-
citing page after page to the astonish.
ment Of the West Indian, but the lat.
ter cannot do this, as he has been &C.
customed to correlate and associate

He carries with him only facts which
he can incorporate into his mental con-
seriousness for all time. The West In
dian student does not care how long
he takes SO long as he understands
every. move and step leading to the so
luton Of a problem. Where routine
work is concerned the American will
very often surpass the West Indian. In
initiative the latter Is better.
