DAYTON Lost to World.

30 Dayton Lost to World.
Dayton, Ohio, March 26.-Dayton Is
a lost city today. Only one telephone

Lebanon
The city government is completely
imprisoned by the water Nothing has
been heard from it since the flood de.
scended. 1t came so quickly that no one
was prepared
The only organized relief work is
that being conducted by the National
Cash Register Company, whose plant
lies just outside the flood and fire
zone. The plant has been converted
into a rescue mission and hospital, and
thousands, including rich and poor,
slept on straw.covered floors. The
company bought up nearly all of the
available food supply in Dayton for the
stricken residents.
BarefOoted, John Patterson, presi.
dent of the National Cash Register
Company, the man who put Dayton on
the map, waded through the flood, saw.
ing many families. He rowed a boat
himself, although he is nearly 70 years
old. He has son, Frederick Patter.
son, and a daughter, Miss Dorothy.
The son led in the rescue work, and the
daughter stood in the rain for hours,
assisting the refugees. The company s
81 automobiles were pressed into ser
vice. There were not enough skiffs in
tho city, and Patterson ordered his
carpenters to build 100 more.
Reports Of deaths in the flood are
heard everywhere. Most of the fatal.
tiles were due to the inability of the
refugees to fight the waters on i'm
provised RATS. Others were over.

escape,
George Dayton, a rescuerer, found n
woman and baby and took them into
his slSiff, Suddenly the woman rose
and plunged into the flood with her
baby Both were drowned. One man
stepped out Of skiff to enter house.
He had hardly closed the door before it
was engulfed.

Clubs That Retain Managers
Have Better of the Argument

Does IL pay for ball clubs to change
managers every season That's a ques-
ton that has been running loose for
long time Some argue that II does and
others that IL doesn't
All OF which comes as the case may be
There ls one thing certain. though, and
that is: The clubs that keep the game
leader yeor In and year out generally are
up IN the running, while those that
change each season generally are down
In the rut.
For example. take the Cardinals and
Browns since the season OF 1911. Roger
Bresnahan did well In 1911, fell down IN
1912 and was let out. Miller Huggns
took up the Job. but did little. He'll
get another change in 1914.
With the Browns It's the same. Bob
by Wallace tried In 1911 and 1912, but
fcI down. George Stoval was at the
helm IN 1913. until he was deposed In
favor OF Jimmy Austin, and tho latte,
ia favor OF Branch Hickey. He will try
his hand next year.
But, on the other hand. take a look
at the manager role OF the clubs that
are up In the running year after year.
DO they change leaders often2 They
do not.
Connie Mack has been the manager
for tho Athletics for a good many years
and he again Will take charge Of the
club in 1914. The Giants, contenders

One or two clubs which change man
ayers quite frequently prospered In
1913. The Maps and Braves are the
most notable Instances.
Charley Somers has had q lot Of
tough luck with managers since 1911.
Nap Lajoie started the. 1911 season as
leader, but quilt and Stovall was In
stalled George did we'll. but the club all
ready had made arrangements with Harry
Davis. SO Stovall had TO get out.
Davis started the 1912 campaign, but
did little. and resigned. Joe Birrning-
ham took his place, and was manager IN
1913. and finished third with his team.
He will lead the club again in 1914.
After Tenney failed In 1911 with the
Boston Braves, and King in 1912,
George Stallings took hold and his club
was the sensation in 1913, finishing fifth.
Nothing better than last could be seen
for the club when the season began.
Tho Yankees and Reds are other clubs
that have changed managers very often
but never got anywhere. So Il looks

came to an end, according to the Den
