GIANTS EXPECT TO
GET WELL IN LEAD
Men in Splendid Condition, and
Pitchers Rounding Into
Wonderful Form.
Especial to Tho Times Dispatch.

Marlin, March e.-The gamo sched-
uled between the Giants and Dallas
to-day was called off on ac-
count of rain, and as the manager OF
the Houston team tclegraphed McGraw
that the field would not be in condi-
ton for to-morrow's game, New York
returned to Marlin this afternoon.
With the exception of Hanlcy's
death and minor injuries to one or
two players, the camp has served the
purpose of getting the men into SPLEEN
did condition and playing form, which
enabled the Giants to get the jump
on their rivals last spring. Everyone
in the camp feels that while it may
not be possible to get as long run
away lead this season. the team will
be well to the font by the LIST of July.
Practically all OF the regular pitchers
are rounding into wonderful form.
While McGraw has allowed most of
them to have their own way in get
ting their arms in shape, he has de-
voted much attention to improving
their wind. This has been done by
means of the daily hand ball games,
in which the manager challenges some
of the pitching STAFF.

AMBIDEXTROUS BRYAN.

Secretary of State William Jennings
Bryan has been lost to sight in the
cloud of criticism that was raised by his
announcement of the supremacy of
Bryan the lecturer over Bryan the pub
lie servant. But it will not do to hastily
traduce the head of the State Depart
ment, for If he can work in chautauqua
lectures together with the burden that
is now resting upon him, he well deserve
the laurel for achievement.
AT the present time Mr.. BRYAN has
filed his reply to Japan and is engaged
in manipulating the delicate matters of
policy toward Mexico. This at least
proves that he is ambidextrous and that
he believes in the biblical adage to
work with both hands earnestly. If he
can grip two such propositions at one
and the same time and vet be unfetter-
ed in his. speech he is indeed man of
superlative attainments.
Therefore, let no one harshlY dis
parage the head of the State Depart
ment who is up to his elbows in diplo.
macy and not letting his left hand know
what his right hand is doing.

MARYLAND EDITORS.

Ye country editors may not be so
potent a figure in rural sections as he
was in former days, but he is still
power to be reckoned with, and he has
large part of his field to himself, in
spite of the intrusion of bumptious big
city dailies. His paper is a home
product and touches the home life OF its
readers at many points which no out
slider can hope to reach. The items of
individual and neighborhood gossip at
which wise city journalists used to
laugh, have become the leading principle
of metropolitan papers and the personal
column, which was once rejected by the
city press, is now become the headstone
of their own corner. For this reason
the country newspaper often follows
the country boy or girl who has moved
to town and who can learn in no other
way so well all that is gong on at the
old home place. In local politics the
country editor continues to play an in
tiuential part and the more independent
and progressive he is, the more infuen-
tial is his role. And he is getting to re-
alize it and to cater more and more to
the people and less to the bosses and
the politicians. The path of the country
scribe is not always one of roses, but he
is generally fairly happy. even if he is
not millionaire He is often extreme
ly witty and original and frequently
makes his own town brother feel
envlous. AS it Is he is an honored
prophet in his bailiwick and furnishes
some of the best recruits to city news
papers. Good luck to the Maryland
editor and may the power of his pen
never grow less. Baltimore Sun.

A FLYLESS TOWN,

The very pretty city of RedIands,
California, lays claim to the distinction
of being the only ''hyless town" in the
United States. The fly problem was at
tackled there more than year ago, but
it is not because Of more vigorous
swatting in Redlands than elsewhere
that the city has acquired fame. The
mayor of Redlands believes in fy-swat-
ting, but his observation has convinced
him of the folly of swatting in one house
when conditions favorable to the breed
ing of flies are allowed to exist in the
house next door. So while encouraging
swatting he took steps to get at the
root of the evil by destroying the breed
ing places of flies, and then appointed
municipal fiY-catcher who constructed
device in the form of a street snare. 1t
consists of a screened frame foot wide
and two feet high, which is regularly
baited to trap the pests, permitting the
t1y-catcher to come around once a day
or oftener to empty the traps and re-
bait them.
A report for September, 1912, the
first month of the Redlands expert
ment. showed that 3, $50, 600 flies were
caught and killed in one hundred traps.
The results proved so satisfactory that
the number of street traps were in
creased, and today there are more
than five hundred of them, and Red
lands boast that there are fewer flies
IN that city than in any other city in the
United States. If that claim is admit
ted it might be well for municipalities
to study Redland' S methods with view
to their general adoption. The system
is inexpensive, and is well worth a trial
at least. Wheeling Register.
