NEW YORK. Feb. Another con-
fab OF Federal League officials which
may result in a change I'm the circuit
is scheduled in Chicago today. The
question Of whether Toronto is to
remain in the league is to be settled,
IL is declared. President Gilmore will
return from the Canadian city dur
ing the day and then the moguls will
set together and hear the reports he
may have to make.
President Weeghman, of the Chicago
club. is said to have declared the
Toronto franchise will certainly be
transferred to Cincinnati or Cleveland.
Gilmore has declared it will remain
in Toronto. indicating some difference
of opinion and leaving room for plenty
Of argument. As the strength of the
Federals apparently centers on
Weeghman, however. he appears to

CINCINNATI In
ROLL OF SAVER OF
FEDERAL LEAGUE

Il looks like ell Of the talk anG hub
bub about Cincinnati having q team
in the Federal league in 1913 was
nothing but the fsr-famed hot air"
at this stage CT the game, but if il
had not been for Cincinnati the reds
would pro0tDly never have sprurg
into existence.
IL was IN he cuk days when the
hackers of the Federal league, headed
by the unfortunate ..chn PO~nrs, were
struggling 10 Ect elough cld':s To lor'l
an organization.
They had Dads all arran gemauts

After working with the Covington
inen FOR some time. the Cleveland
crowd became disgusted with the
slow proceedings in the Kentucky city
and notified President Powers that un-
less the Covington capital was guar
anteed within twenty-four hours they
would drop out. The other members
of the league then decided that should
the Cleveland club drop out, they
would give up the project of form
ing the organization.
The Covington club seemed utterly
unable TO gather the necessary
amount of capital and had about de-
cided to give up the struggle when
at the last hour of grace given them
by the Cleveland people a number of
Cincinnati men announced that they
had secured enough money to float
team in the Kentucky city
Cleveland was notified at once and
the league was saved-to cause
oceans of trouble to the majors and
organized ball
Not content with this amount of
"Leagu wing" Cincinnati came
into the limelight later in the history
of the league when it made it pos
sible for Joe Tinker to jump to the
outlaw body. II was Joe's jump that
started the wholesale jumping OF
other good ball players from the
ranks of organized ball to the outlaw
league and if the Feds succeed they
owe their life and prosperity to the
home OF the Cincinnati Reds.

A FITTING CITY MEMORIAL.

The Mayors suggestion that fitting memorial
TO the two hundred and ifteth anniversary of the
birth of Newark should take permanent form is, of
course most sensible. And what could be per-
manent and lasting than building?
Mayor Haussling seems to have the proper idea.
Erect building to serve the temporary home for
birthday exercises but build it of such materials
of such design that it will later and for
years to come as civic forum and monument to the
greatness of the city which it is intended to COM
memorate.
As matter of fact, the entire proceedings of the
initial meeting of the Committee of One Hundred,
which will plan and execute for the big celebration
in the City Hall yesterday, breathed earnestness Of
purpose and manifested a civic pride that augurs
well for a success.
The remarks of City Clerk Connolly, in presenting
the name of former Governor Franklin Murphy
permanent chairman of the committee in themselves
outlined a policy, and the brief address of Mr..
Murphy indicated that he had given the subject deep
thought and had ideas that he would communicate
to the others as the work progressed.
Cordial cooperation requested, and cordial
cooperation will be the keynote of the committee,
1t will undoubtedly reflect the spirit of all Newarkers
with affection for the city and desire and ambition
to make the great occasion that will
newed honor and credit to the metropolis of New Jer
sey and of the foremost of municipalities of the
nation

BELGRADE THE CITY OF s1EGEs.

One of the first incidents of the great drama of
war unfolding in Eastern Europe will be the
taking of Belgrade, the Servan capital, by an Aus
trian army as the historic city the Danube faces
the Austrian and fortress of Semlin the OPP
posite bank of the stream. Belgrade is famous in
history for its sieges for the city has had great
strategic Importance.
Nearly four centuries ago. when an Austrian city,
Belgrade taken by the Turks under solyman. 1t
retakeH in 1888 and again lost to the Turks two
years later Prince Eugene invested the city and
took it in 1717 and twenty-five years afterward it
was recaptured by the Turks The city became Aus
tran again in 17S9 but it restored to Turkey in
1791 The Servians revoted in 1906 and occupied
Belgrade, and afterward it endured several sieges
until 1867, when it received permanent Servian
garrison
When Austria takes Belgrade it will be with the
intention of making it permanently Austrian The
sentiment of the Austrians has been offended
by the sight of old city historically theirs and
view the Danube, figuring the capital of a
small Slav state.

The Ultimate Woman

lows the mental development of five
or six children will receive herself a.
second schooling greatly superior to
her first. It is a lively mental exer-
else to keep in touch with the success
sively developed interests of group
of children from two to twenty years
of age.
What, then, is the reasonable view
concerning the entrance of young
women into all sorts of occupations
that used to be reserved for men, such
as school teaching, service as clerks,
cashiers or secretaries, and as sales
women in shops, operatives in mills,
or operators in telegraph Offices or
telephone exchanges?
These are all good occupations for
young women, provided they do not
impair health or prevent or unduly
postpone marriage.
When the period of child bearing is
over, or a young wife has been wild
owed, democratic society welcomes
women to many interesting and use
full occupations which afford women
of intelligence and goodwill excellent
outlets for energies of later years.
The best school, however, for these
later activities is normal family life
from twenty to fifty or thereabouts.
The ultimate woman Is, then, the
vigorous, nursing, teaching mother of
a family, whose motherhood grows
more and more comprehensive as life
goes on, and finally comes to embrace
four generations of kindred and
friends, and all cast-down and I'M
happy people.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Dear Sir-There is little to be
commended in the attempt of indi-
viduals to appropriate current po-
litical designations, the evident pur-
pose being to mislead some Of the
voters who are adherents of the or
ganization generally known by the
designation appropriated, and by
which designation the party adher-
epts are guided in their preference
for the nominees with whom they are
not personally acquainted.
There are occasions when it is al
most impossible for the average
voter to become acquainted with all
of the nominees, and no one can ques-
ton the right of voter to select
his candidates by the party designa-
ton if he so wills, and in a selection
so made he should be protected from
all subterfuge.
The persons holding certain polit-
zeal beliefs form parties, maintaining
organizations which in time become
known by particular designations, the
beliefs ana the designations becoming
associative, and it is as manifestly
unfair to permit other persons to
pre-empt the use of any such desig-

The diminishing size of families in
the civilized portion of the white race
and the frequency of childlessness in
married pairs prove, beyond question
that large numbers of women are
missing their most important and
their happiest occupation, says DR..
Charles w. Eliot
No gains in other directions can
possibly compensate women for this
loss: for the work of bearing and
rearing children and making a home
for a family gives a woman her best
chance of physical well-being and Of
sound intellectual spiritual develop
ment.
No accessibility for women to the
callings or professions which until re-
Gently have been open only to men
can compensate women for the loss
or stunning of their opportunity for
rendering loving and devoted service.
No economic gains for women, no
better access to the social excitements
and so-called pleasure which city life
affords, can possibly compensate
young women for any impairment of
their chances to win the natural joys
of normal family life.
No social or political service can
bring women opportunity to contrib
ute to the real progress and develop
ment of mankind comparable with
that of the healthy wife and mother
who bears and brings up from four to
eight children.

was able to assist him. Mrs. Gra-

for young women in Edinburgh.
The remarkable part of Mrs.
Graham'S career was that even in
her days of closest economy she put
aside tenth of all that she had for
charity, and instead of brooding over
her own sorrows, she turned her
thoughts to the men and women in
Edinburgh whose plight was worse
than her own. Out of her own small
resources she often lent money to
young men and women starting. out
in business, and was the prime factor

which was a loan society for the
poor. Then she organized the so
ciety for the Relief of the Destitute

loan society for disabled worklngmen
and women.
In 1888 Mrs. Graham returned to
America and started a fashionable
school in New York city. From five
pupils the first day her school in
creased to fifty in single month,
and for thirteen years this school
continued to be a financial success
for Mrs. Graham. In New York Mrs
Graham continued her charitable
work, and started the Society for the
Relief of Poor Widows and Children,
one of the first to organize charities
in New York city, and in 1874, a little
while before her death, she brought
into being the Society for Promoting
Industry Among the Poor.
