The next day Mickey Kavanagh was
sick and Burns was put In at second

ticulsrly hard chances and there was
only one play In which he had to use
his head In choosing place to throw
the ball, 90 his value as SECOND

Burns and Pipp played in the same
game and Manager Jennings had .
chance to look over these two rivals
for first base against the same pitcn-
ers on the same day. Pipp looked the
better with q nice double. while Burns
failed to get bingle.

i \ young. rapidly growing and
turbulent communities in which there
was at first complete anarchy. Dur
ing the time when there was no cen
trail police power to which to appeal
every mar worth his salt in other
words every man fit for existence in
such a community, had to be pre-
pared to defend himself; and usually,
although not always, the fact that he
was prepared saved him from all trou-
bic, whereas unpreparedness was abso-
lutely certain to invite disaster.
In such communities before there
was a regular and fully organized po-
lice force there came an interval dur

of as many armed, thoroughly eff
Cicnt law abiding citizens as was

respond to the call Of the peace off
Ger; and furthermore if he had shred
Of wisdom he kept himself ready on an
emergency to act on his own behalf if
the peace officer did not or could not
do his duty.
In such towns I have myself more
than once seen Well-meaning but fool
ish citizens endeavor to meet the ext
gencies of the case by simply passing
resolutions Of disarmament without
any power back of them. That is, they
passed self-denying ordinances saying
that nobody was to carry arms, but
they failed to provide methods for
carrying such ordinances into eject.
In every case the result was the same.
Good citizens for the moment aban-
doned their weapons. The bad men
continued to carry them. Things grew
worse instead of better; and then the
good men came to their senses
and clothed some representative Of
the police power to employ force, pO-
tentiaI or existing, against the wrong
doors.
Affairs in the international world
are at this time in analogous cOndi-
ton. There is no central police power,
and not the least likelihood Of having
one organized. Well meaning enthu-

that the thousand and one preparations
