SCHWARTZ HAS
WEIRDEST CLUB
IN THE LEAGUE
By Percy Whiting.

by Gefcy w nlUlng.
THE opinion prevails in Atlanta
that Bill Schwartz is the great
est manager in the world. He
has to be to stick up around the top
with that ball club of his.
To the Atlanta way of thinking Bill
has the weirdest collection of cast
offs, misfits and comers/ that the
league ever saw. And yet he some
times wins games with II.
OF course it happened that yester-
day wasn't one Of the days, but bar
ring Earl Fleharty's well known bad
inning" which proved to be the
fourth, they had at least an even
break with the Crackers all the rest
of the way.
ELEHARTYS blow" was a pro-
found and spectacular affair.
Earl slid by for three innings, thanks
to an efficacions prayer and the mys-
tffying effect Of a red flannel shirt.
Then, beginning at the south end of
the batting order, the Crackers all
took a whack at him. Five hits were
made, most notable of which was
Tommy Longs three-sacker that
scored three runs. This was a ter
rible poke, but even at that the
ubiquitous Jud Daley all but nailed
it. He got two hands on it, after a
bit of dizzy aerial work, but the ball
wrenched loose and continued on its
course. Maybe if it had not been for
Daley's tackle it would have gone
for a home-run.
a FTER Fleharty was allowed to re-
1 4 tire Dye went in. This lad had
a snappy, twisty delivery and consid-
cradle pep. But he could not hold
the Crackers, who nicked him for
two more runs.
And in the meantime Gilbert Price
was pitching good ball An error
made the first brace of Vol runs pos
sible. In the ninth he really weak
Oned a bit, but by then the Crackers
were so far ahead that nothing short
of an earthquake mattered much.
-
M HAT might have been a fast,
w snappy game was dragged out
interminably by the fact that the UNI
pires allowed the players all the time
they wanted for arguing. And the
Nashville Club needed a good deal.
THE Crackers and the Vols mingle
again this afternoon. Dent will
probably work for the Crackers. \
Schwartz did not announce his bat
terry performers. The Vol series
closes here Wednesday afternoon and
Thursday the Barons and President
w. NJ. Kavanaugh will be here and
the local club will be presented the
cup for the largest attendance on
opening day.

A Most Important Function and One
To Be Carefully Guarded.

The purpose of the kidneys being
to filter the blood the question of
treating supposed kidney weakness
should be considered carefully. In
stead of drugs and alleged kidney
stimulants the better plan IS to purify
the blood with an antidota1 effect
such as you get from S. S S.
1t should be remembered that the
kidneys are made up of a fine net
work of blood vessels, and it is to
stimulate the functional activity of
kidney tissue through this capillary
net work that S. S. S. shows one Of
its most remarkable effects.
The medicinal value OF the compo-
nents of 5. 5. 5. is relatively just as
vital to healthy kidney action as the
nutriments obtained from grain,
meat, fats, sugars, or any other part
of our daily food is to the natural re-
constructive requirements of the It's
sues. And there is one component Of
S. S. S which serves the active pur-
sues of the kidneys to a healthy and
iudicious selection of its own essen
tial nutriment. Thus, in cases of
rheumatism, cystitis. chronic sore
throat, huskiness Of voice. bronchitis,
asthma. and the myriad of other
reflex indications of weak kidney
action, first purify your blood with
S. S. S. so it viii enable the tissues

THE EvER.GAPING WAR CHESTS.

For many decades American sympathy and en-,
thusiasm have provided large share of the financial
support for Ireland's home rule war. Indeed
American dollars" have been derided by the tories
in their effort to arouse prejudice against cause
that could not be attacked on its merits.
But the home rule fight is on the point of win
ming 1t will not be long before Ireand's campaign
chest will make no more demands on our ardor and
pocketbooks.
Whereupon Mrs. Pankhurst sends US the mes
sage that the British suffragists have war chest
which will mold as much money as can afford to
send them
America may be pretty crude and provincial, bu,
il serves some very useful purposes Doubtless j,
will heed the appeal of Mrs. Pankhurst. The suf-
frage warfare is more critical in Britain than any.
where else just now, and while we may not approve
the methods of the militans, it must be observed
that they are the precise methods that additionally
have been most effective in forcing attention of con-
servatve British administrations to the demands of
the people. Our own Boston tea party was marvel
ously similar to understanding, Misunderstanding
crusade in London.

THE TROUBLE WITH WASHINGTON.

The consideration of the District appropriation
bill is aording opportunity for astounded statesmen
to air their discovery that there defects in the
government of Washington. We learn that taxation
is not ideally adjusted and that there discrm-
nations in its incidence.
How many of the Congressmen who are berating
this town on that account, give assurance that
conditions are better in their home communities?
The American cities with anything like modern
and reasonably equitable systems of taxation can be
named on the fingers of the two hands. Washington
would be one of these if Congress had provided for
making it such. This is the one town for which
Congress is responsible. When Congress wakes in
dignant over the defects in the Capital Ciys govern
ment if is merely berating its own ine6iciency.
There are undoubtedly some bad conditions here
But it will not improve matters to make these de-
fects an excuse for the effort to deny all consider
alton for Washington's needs.
If the Capitol building needed better system of
ventilation, and Congress decided to remedy tnat
condition by, first, turning the gas and asphyxat-
ing the whole membership preliminary to intro
ducing ventilating apparatus, it would give very
fair parallel to the Johnson plan of working reform
here by refusing to do anything whatever for the
town. . ..

THE PENROsE PENSION PLAN.

The form is not so important as the substance, in
any plan to pension Federal employees. Senator
Penrose of Pennsylvania offers amendment to the
postal appropriation measure, looking to the retire
ment of superannuated employees on indefinite leave.
They would be allowed under this proposal, $50 per
month as retired pay.
This is simply introducing the plan of the military
service into the civil service. 1t never mas been
apparent why army and navy people should be guar
anteed old-age incomes while civil service employees
should be denied like assurance against want. The
army and navy officers to whom the retirement plan
applies are the whole, very much better paid than
the civil service people, their positions involve a
measure of dignity, distinction, and social prestige
that does not go with the Governments civil career
If it is going to ease the conscences or assuage
the prejudices of any people who object to civil
pension list then by all means let the civil service
have military plan of pensions. The empoye VINO
reaches the age of enforced retirement will be quite
willing to accept retired pay" instead Of pension.
No complaint will be voiced in his behalf. The
point is to get the thing done for him, and get it
done as soon as possible.
The National Government pensions its old SOL
diers, reres its army and navy officers on half pay,
gives years extra salary to the estate of de-
ceased member Of Congress. We are not wont to
think of it in such terms, but it is fact that this
payment to the family of a Congress member is
vastly more than the Governments contribution to
civil service employe would average. 1t is equiva-
lent to $3.50 year for ten years in retirement; two
or three times as much as, in actual experience,
would be claimed by the average retired civil service
employe.
Senator Penroses plan is made to apply only to
the postal service Let it be inaugurated there, by
all means it will be the beginning of system that
in one form another will at last bring fair treat
and justice to the entire force of civil service
workers.

THE GRoUNDHoG's RESPONSIBILITY.

Brer Grounding might well retire from the
prophesyng business if he doesn't produce the goods
this season. Today is the occasion for his appear,
ance. There is doubt about his appearance above
ground; anybody with a fur coat would be tempted
outside on as cheery an occasion as this day; like
wise, almost anybody would be disposed 10 crawl in
again after a reasonable outing.
The coal man and the ice man and the woolen
underclothes man are going to keep tabs on the
grounding this trip, and if he doesn't make good
his repute is hopelessly gone.
Add together the assurance of the Weather
Bureau that Brer Grounding saw his shadow today
practically throughout the country and the fact thai
there's an ardently anticipated inauguration foul
weeks ahead and who can doubt that the weather
wise rodent will get his vindication?
