some of the nations most distinguished
visitors, but none of them has ever tar
ried long enough to buy a postage stamp
OF a souvenir card. HObOken is alsc
the terminal of two great railroad sys-
tens, but the passengers are carefully
deposited IN underground trains or ferrys
and have no chance TO admire the beau
ties of the old stone pavement along the
river front. If HObOken had smallpox it
could not be more effectUally quaran-

with plenty Of past. As early as 1850
the Dutch raised vegetables in the HO-
bOken bottoms for New Amsterdam. In
the first part of this century the
"Elvsian Fields" of HObOken were visit
ed by thousands of New Workers every
week. However, they have long since
been removed to the Broadway roof
gardens.
HObOken turns out some of the best
engineers in the world from Stevens in

tory from salt marshes back of the city.

The Feast at Manassas
The Story of the Capture of Supplies
at Manassas Junction During

By Rev. ThOs. B. GregOry


TT WAS fifty-one years ago today
that Stonewan Jackson. swinging
4 around the union army, found
himself far in Pope's rear OF Manassas
Junction A rich prize was disclosed
to JackSOn's view when he reached the
junction Warehouses built IN long
rows, filled with all sorts OF sup
plies. two or three miles OF heaVy
laden freight cars. and thousands OF
barrels OF flour, pork and biscuit plleu
up in the adjacent fields
A large bakery, completely equipped,
was kept in operation the entire day
by the federal prisoners, and stone
wallis men, who had been HVlng Tor
weeks on green corn and green apples,
enjoyed the feast Of their lives lC
was a sight for the gods to see the
the good things that fortune had
thrown into their way
The extraordinary revel among Pope's
supplies went on until the close of the
day and when it came to an end II IS
safe to say that Tor once at least
there was not a hungry man IN JACK
From the feast the "JOhnnies' rose
up to array themselves in the various
articles of POpe's big wardrobe The
ragged uniforms Of gray were ex-
changed for new ones, blue, ana eacn

found himself with PAIR OF Drand

was to be had in abundance. and when
the stars came out that night they
looked down upon the best fed and
best clothed army that ever existed.
With the coming on OF darkness
Jackson gave the order which commit

the flames. A mighty blaze went up
reddening all the sky Tor miles around,
and a little after midnight the three
confederate divisions disappeared in
the darkness, leaving not trace OF

NJ Ew YORK baseball fans Will
y try TO feel cheerful over the
news that Minor Brown shows de-
cided signs Of coming back to his
old form.
The case Of the three fingered
wonder is unique in baseball. He
is probably the only pitcher who
was sHdded out of the big leagues
because his leg. not his arm, had
gone back on him. That mutilated
hand which has sometimes caused
us to wonder what he would do If
he had all five fingers. has lost
none Of its cunning His knee
ioint-the left one-has lost the oil
Of its hinge. That's where the
trouble is, He couldn't throw the
weight Of his body into the final
snap Of the ball as it left his hand
and it put his work on the blink.
MUCH as he liked him personally
AZ and professionally, even Man
ager Chance came to the conclusion
that Browns big league pitching
days were over and he was turned
into the bushes But about this
time Joe Tinker became the chief
tain Of the Reds and he held other
views about Brown. He figured
that az long as a pitchers arm was
all right he ought to be pitcher
He picked up Brown and turned
him over to the famous Ohio bone
setter Brown has been under the
care Of this man for months and
the reports are highly encouraging.
IF Brown comes back 10 his old
form it will produce a highly
interesting, or even distressing, sit
uation in the National League. The
Giants won the pennant last year
chiefly because Of their ability TO
beat Cincinnati most any after
noon of the week and al day sun
day
Matty has won something like %
out OF his last 20 games against
that team.
With Brown and Tinker on the
Reds all this will be changed-or
the great god Dope gets another
black eye. Tinker and Brown have
beaten the Giants more than any
nine or fifteen men that ever wore
spiked shoes

10 your benumbed limbs. Words
fail me when l try TO express my
high regards for this friend that
has been my companion for life.
The first thing that I ever remem-
