tor OF the London Truth. who
died recently, was a daring
and caustic writer. a man
who preferred being political free
lance to wearing the harness In any
body's cabinet and capitalist with
sufficient means to back up his daring.
He had an interesting, not to say TO.
mantle, career. Born in London In
1881, he was educated at Elton and
Cambridge. On leaving Cambridge he
went travelling. Mexico was a country
he wanted to see. After a rambling
life there he came to the United States.
Finding himself at st. Paul, then only
a cluster of houses, he fell in with
party of Indians and for six months
spent his time hunting and working
with them.
Later he secured an appointment In
the British diplomatic service. He
was appointed to the English legation
at Washington, where he remained for
two years. Afterward he served In
Munich, Stockholm. Frankfort. St Pc
tersburg. Dresden and Constantinople.
In 1864 he contested Windsor in par

test Northampton and was returned
as an extreme radical For many
years he and his colleague. Bradlaugh,
were identified with the most socialis-
tic and revolutionary legislation intro
duced into parliament.
On the evening of the day he was
first elected to parliament he was sit

Cleveland Alexander of the Phillies,
the two finds of 1911 SO far as pitchers
go, are holdouts in the matter of 1912
contracts, each demanding $1,000 sal
pry. Both ought to get it on the work
done by them last season. Gregg won
twenty three games and lost seven,
and Alexander won twenty eight and
lost thirteen. Magnates usually go on
the theory that no pitcher is worth
$4,000 year until he has worked three
or four seasons.

Princeton TO Go Slow In Rowing.


W. w. Roper, who is the graduate
director of athletics at Princeton, Is
authority for statement that the
Tigers will not take part in any Of the
outside rowing regattas during the
present year.
Ever since Princeton made such
favorable impression in the triangular
regatta with Cornell and Yale the peo-
pie who were anxious to have Tiger
crew compete at Poughkeepsie or at
New London have been boosting to-
ward this end. Mr.. Roper's announce
ment, however, will end all this talk.
Princeton will hold a regatta on Car
negie lake again next year. Negotia-
tons are now progressing for TRAN
gular meeting with Harvard and Penn
sylvania.
1t is also practically certain that the
Tigers will enter crew in the Amer
lean regatta at Philadelphia.
