n THENS. GA, Jan. 2S.-Pros-
~ poets for a good baseball team
at Georgia next season are
very bright. More than thirty candi-
dates have already promised to try
for the team, and Coach Cunningham
should have enough material on hand
to select a strong ball club from.
The one weakness that faces the
Georgia coach is the catching depart
ment The Red and Black mogul will
find it no easy task to find a man of
Hutchings' or Bowen's ability. I'm
less Cunningham is able to develop
a coed backstop rival teams will pill
fer many bases next season.
THE old &c" men who are on hand
to look over the crop of hopefuls
are: Captain CHM, left fielder; Nc
WhOrter, center fielder Corley,
pitcher; Hitchcock, pitcher: Hender
son, first base; Harris, second base.
Clements, shortstop, In addition to
this number kid" Riley, who played
short on the 1912 team is in college
again, while Holden, who subbed at
third last year al present has the call
for Covington's old position.
A Veritable harvest of new faces
viii greet Cunningham for a look
over. and some of them are promis
ing Youngsters. Nunnally, who
prepped at G. NJ. G. and who has
couGht several games for Monroe, will
probably be the first assignment be-
hind the bat. owen who played end
on the football team last fall is eX-
pected to help Corley with the pitch

Il think that Willie Richie is the
greatest lightweight champion we have
had since the days of Joe Cans" This
is the opinion of Leach Cross. New

san Francisco and mas just been
matched to fight Joe Rivers on Febru-
airy at Los Angeles.
Cross thinks that Richie could have
whipped Battling Nelson or Ad VOL

Tommy Murphy stands good chance
as any of the present day lightweights
to beat Richie. Leach declares that
Murphy's wonderful ring experience
would be great help to him against
Willie.

DENMARK.

The transportation of 400 reindeer
from northern Norway to the wilds
of Upland turned out to be difficult
and expensive undertaking. The au.
thorities issued an order to have all
the animals guaranteed at Helsing-
bork. But the owners of the animals
explained that this meant the loss OF
a large proportion OF them, and the
order was countermanded in time to
avoid Inconvenience. AS it was, only
two animals died on the way. The
pasture where they are kept In sew
eral square miles in extent, and is sur
rounded by fence which no reindeer
can break or Jump. 1t Is said that
over $4,000 has been expended on
this venture. The plan is to save all
the animals for breeding for a num-
Der Of years to come. .
Some 10 or Is years ago the sup
ply OF preachers was larger than the
demand. But since that time the
number of theological students has
been decreasing from year to year,
until there is an actual famine. There
are several vacancies, and In some In
stances not a single application has
been received. Some one suggested
that women be authorized to preach,
but the government is by no means
apt to take such a proposition seri-
ously.
An artist has been found who as
serts that he can restore the frescoes
on the famous museum of Thorvald-
sen. and the municipality has appro-
priated a sufficient sum for the work
of restoration of building which was
rapidly becoming a reproach to the
Danish capital The odd collections
OF Danish sculpture within the muse
um are In splendid condition, but the
outside decorations of the building,
especially the famous frescoes record
ing the history of Thorvaldsen, are
in a deplorable state. This is espe-
cially true of the fresco paintings
showing the triumphal entrance OF
Thorvaldsen into Copenhagen on his
ISluIu lTOm ftOmc. TUT, years Po'0s
many artists have endeavored to ind
some means OF restoring these fres-

an artist devised plan which prom
ises TO be successful.
The lower rates on vegetables fixed
by the new American tariff may
cause a revolution in the Danish cab
bage industry. Farmers all over the
country are starting cooperative So
cieties for cabbage raising, and
central organization will be
formed to facilitate expectation OF
the product to America. 1t Is believed
that Danish farmers win find a gold
mine in the industry. Under the
Payne-Aldrich act the tariff on cab
bages was two cents head. Under
the new act it is is per cent. ad va
loren.

SWEDEN.

Sweden is once more seriously agi-
tated by what is called the Russian
danger" Finland is being thoroughly
-Russianized, and Sweden feels that n
there is no buffer Estate between hei
and Russia. her positl "a hecom,ns
more difficult and dangerous. DR..
Sven Hedin, the Swedish explorer,
has been drawing the attention OF his
countrymen to the matter. Since
Sweden was forced to give up Fin
land" he declared, our country has
never at any time been overrun to
such an extent by Russian spies.
What does this mean in the time OF
deepest peace?" he asks. and his an
swer is:
1T means war"
He pleads for the strengthening Of
Swedish defenses, as the country. In
his opinion, might also be threatened
by Norway.
Politically" he adds, Norway Is
dependent on England and Norway's
position, as far as foreign affairs are
concerned, is Numerically opposed to
that of Sweden.
Sweden can only, therefore, regard
Norway as she would an enemy.
Norway has an army that can be
mobillzed quietly and quickly, so that
she can help Russia in a manner
which would be very dangerous 10 US.
1T must not. therefore. surprise rs
when, at the moment of Russian ag-
gression, Norwegian troops act with
her by attacking the province Of
Jemtland Tin the middle OF Sweden)-
Many Norwegians harbor strong
hopes OF the re-conquest of that prov
ince. Nl}
Russia has her her eyes on the ice-
free ports OF northern Norway, and
she might obtain them by allowing
Norway to compensate herself by
SEEKING the province mentioned
Doctor Hedin's attack on Norway Is
resented by Norwegians and the Nor
wegian press, and the Swedish peo-
Pile are not inclined to look upon the
Norwegian danger" as very serious.
But there can be nc doubt that the
country is very anxious with regard
to Russia's doings in the north Of Fin
land. where there is a considerable
military force for which new barracks
had to be built at Tornell. Sweden
naturally asks why soldiers are kept
at such spot.
The Dalarne district was a mecca
for tourist during the Christmas holi-

ordered rooms for stay there until
after the first of the year, but the let
ter to the proprietor Of the hotel did
not come until all rooms had been

In former years a number OF ships
used to be laid up in Bergen during
the early winter months for lack of
profitable employment. This winter
only two small ones were to be seen.
The explanation is that shipping has
been so very profitable that practical
ly everything seaworthy is kept ut
work carrying freight at home or
abroad. This condition also explains
the fact that few seamen have been
seen In the Norwegian seaports this
winter. They are busy making money
all the time.

Infantry Decides the Battle.

While there have been many dis
cussions as to the relative value of
the different branches of an army
there is little doubt, according to a
writer in the Scientific American,
that it is the infantry that wins bat
ties.
While it is probable the success of
battle will depend to large extent
on the support Of the field artillery, it
is certain that the principal and most
important arm is the infantry, which
in practically every case must decide
the final issue. The cavalry may be
the first to. be drawn into a battle,
and the artillery may destroy the en-
emy's artillery, but battle is never
won until the infantry has driven back
the enemy's lines
The usual mode of advancing for
the infantry is to deploy them in a
line with long interval between each
Soldier This, naturally, is for the
purpose of offering a smaller target
for the enemys but makes it more diff
ficult, however, for the leaders to
keep as good control over the men,
and for that reason one of the objects
of field artillery is to make the en-
eny's troops deploy early.
- The infantry soldier is armed in all
the countries with rifle and bayonet.
The rife is the weapon upon which re
lance is placed, the bayonet being
used only as a last means, when in a
hand-to-hand encounter with the en-

Who Gets the War Prizes?

In most nations, though, a percentage
goes to men and officers on the theory
that they should be rewarded for their
enterprise"
The lieutenant reached for a book,
turned the pages and pointed to that
provision of international law, adopted
some years ago at The Hague confer
ence, which creates an international
prize court of Is civilian members.
1t is provided by this that appeal
may be taken from national prize
courts where neutral interests are in
volved or where the rights of a bellig-
erent have been ignored by the en-
emy's courts. This law was acceded
to by Germany, the United States, Aus
