I'll a big league manager had ms
pick today between a squad OF
veteran pitchers and Il squad OF
Youngsters which would he Sc
lect? Would he take Marquard, Alex
ander. Gregg, Johnson. Ford and Joe
Wood i'll preference to MatheWson,
Bender. Plank. Rucker, Coombs and
Walsh?
Either crowd. with good support,
would be capable OF winning q pen
nant if they were all in condition ut
the same time, but some managers are
inclined to the belief that six star
pitchers cannot be worked in II and
kept in good condition.
Baseball men. as Il rule, accept with
out argument the proposition that Ma
theWson Is the greatest pitcher in the
world, and they base it upon the fact
that he has been great for a decade. 1t
seems that the old followers of the
game, while always willing to admit a
young pitchers capabilities whenever
he displays them, do not place Il man
in the category Of the truly great until
he has established himself by more

DRESS At ENGLISH COURT.
Most Of Mistakes Due to There Being
Two Distinct STYLES.

Some Interesting stories Of mistakes
made In the matter OF dress for func-
lions Of the English court. where pune
t~illousness In this respect is Of course
essential, are related in connection
with Il new edition of q book. Dress
Worn at Court by Herbert Trendall.
Mr.. Trendail is chief clerk of the lord
chamberlain's department. whose reg
u!ationS for the dress of those who at
tend courts or levees are so strict that
an expert court tailor is posted aS the
agent OF the department ut the en-
trance of the rooms ia which the func-
tons are held. 1t is his duty to scru-
tiniZe the clothes Of each man attend
ing the court and to draw attention to
any irregularity.
This expert declares that the most
frequent mistakes arise from the fact
that there are two styles of court dress
at present permitted to the ordinary
civilian-an old and Il new. Both are
of black velvet. but the older dress is
more deliberately ornamented with
steel buttons and there are lace frillS
and ruffieS at the neck and wrists. The
mistakes arise in the form of attempts
to introduce some of these ornaments
of the old our dress into the simpler
form of the new.
sometimes people in uniform come
to court wearing the trouSers prescrib-
cd for Il levee instead of the brooches
necessary for our dress. If there is
time the lord chamberlain'S officials
occasionally insist on their going home
to rectify such mistakes. but as there
Is no need at courts for many Of the
men to enter presence at All, they are
| often allowed to pass with the warn
ing to keep in the background as much
as possible.
"Once l had to point out to a vel
known general as he was going in that
| his sword was fastened on the wrong
side. 1t is fairly common for civilians
to make the mistake of putting the
sword on the right hand side.
The court dress of a private gentle
man costs from $50 to $50. according
to the elaboration Of the steel work in
| the buttons and sword hilt.'

and Kern was elected by the Demo-
cratic legislature.
Governor Marshall also put himself
in the public eye by his action in hon
oring the requisition of California for
John J.. Mcnamara. This brought on
him for a time the criticism of those
who assumed thai Mcnamara was in
nocent of the Los Angeles dynamiting.
The plea Of guilty which ended the
Los Angeles trial moved Governor
MarshalIs seyerest critics to revise
had performed his duty in spite Of
great pressure to evade it for political
considerations.
Another executive act which demon
strated, say his champions, that Gov
ernor Marshall! was superior to the
considerations of political expediency
was his veto of the statute legalizing
Sunday baseball. A large part Of the
SO called liberal vote had been cast
for him as a protest against the blue
law proclivities Of his predecessor.
Governor Marshall was born in
A\OIl III Mu1IACSlCI ALu., AAaINA 1T,
1854. He is Of the famous Virginia
family Of Marshalls, being a grand
nephew of the chief justice of the
United States, John Marshall. His
father was Or. Daniel NJ. Marshall.
His mother. who before her marriage
was Martha f. Patterson. was a di-
rect descendant OF Charles Carroll OF
CarrOlltOn.
In 1879 Marshall was graduated from
Wabash college. at Charlottesville. re-
ceiying the degree Of bachelor Of arts.
While in college he became a member
of the Phi Beta Kappa Greek letter
fraternity. After his graduation Mar
shall moved to Fort Wayne and studied
law in the office Of Judge Walter Odds.
He later moved to Columbia City. Ind,
and on the day he was t~wenty-One years
old. March IA. 1915, Marshall was adj
mitted to the bar.
"WHo is TOM MARSHALL"
The legal attachments displayed by
Marshall made him a conspicuous fig
ure in the courts of northern Indiana.
liz 10 ISScINCu. CdilH I'LL pClS1Stcit,
He pursued his course with so little
noise that when the Democratic party
Of Indiana nominated him for gov,
rno in 1908 everybody asked. "Who is
Tom Marshall?' He led the Indiana
Democrats to their first decisive vic
tory in sixteen years.
The Capitalization Of governmental
power has been opposed by Marshall.
He believes the Union is a creature of
the states rather than the states being
creatures Of the Union. He believes
in state control Of corporations and
that the trusts can be eliminated hy
the states acting independently Of the
national government.
On Oct. ?, 1896. Marshall and Miss
Lois /. Kimsey of Angola, Ind. were
married. They have no children. He and
his wife are inseparable companions.
Since taking M active part In the
political affairs Of Indiana he has been
nicknamcd Little Tom Marshall ns
a term OF affection. He II slender,
short and wiry.

You come, as others come,
Night sandaled, and your flying feet
Set bells a-swing in every street
But you are dumb. .

Still on the upward slope
OF life, to take your strong young

To search, to dare. to understand.
Pilgrims of hope.
You lead US on; you lead US up.
We seek your aVatar
BY fords of faith, the pass Of tears,
Peaks of delight. O year. of years,
You take us far!
And then you go. We hear your voice
We know our name at last.
You were the future that we sought,
And all the years may bring as naugh
But you. the past.

PUBLIC CAREER HIS AIM
When Thomas W. Wilson-so he
signed his name in his college days
left Princeton his mind was settled
definitely upon a public career, and. be-
lieving that the law afforded him the
best path to a public career, he en-
tered the legal school Of the Univer-
sity OF Virginia. Here he not only
studied hard, but became popular as a
leader among his classmates. In May,
1882, he took up the practice Of law
in Atlanta, where be was unknown, but
a year and a half Of little or no bust
ness taught him that 1t was next to i'm
possible for a young lawyer in Allan
tn at that time to support himself long
enough to get into public Office.
After becoming engaged to Miss Ell
len Louise Arson OF Rome. Ca, he
went north to Johns Hopkins universe
ty, where he spent two years rs a
student of history and political econo-
my. In 1885 he completed and pub
lished his first book, Congressional
Governmental Study OF Government
by Committee The publication OF
the book resulted il calls from several
colleges. He accepted that from Bryn
Mawr. becoming associate in history
and political economy.
Woodrow Wilson was married Mt the
home OF Miss Axson's grandfather
June "a, 1885. From this union three
| girls have been born-Margaret, Flea.
nor and Jessie.
Professor Wilson took his Phi. d. de
gree at Johns Hopkins and later &C
cepted a lectureship there. which took
him to Baltimore n a week. In
1883 he was elected to the chair Of his
tory and political economy at Yves
leyan university. Middletown. Conn
His growing reputation. added to by
the popularity Of his lectures at Yves
leyan and Johns Hopkins and the pub
LEGATION of another book. The State
led to his being made professor of juris
prudence and politics at Princeton.
It was considered a most natural
thing that Woodrow Wilson, Prince
toms popular teacher and brilliant
scholar, should be elected to the pres
idency OF the university In 1902. When
he entered upon his duties he was
| widely known as an author and a pub
lie speaker.
When nominated rs governor by the
Democratic party Of New Jersey Sept.

| dency OF Princeton and opened his
| campaign. On Nov. 8 the people of
New Jersey elected him to the gov
