Wilson's Meekness.

Life: 1.-The spirit of humanity, COM
bined with an almost infexible will
power and superior mental faculties,
accounts partly for the presidents
success in driving congress into doing
what he wants."-The Sun.
Woodrow has the quality known as
meekness. His possession of it con-
]stitutes perhaps the greatest advan-
tage of equipment that he has over
Theodore. Theodore not only did not
have it, but never seemed to have n
conception of it. 1t is one of the very
great qualities that makes possible
achievements which could not be &C
complished without it. There is no
mistake in the beatitude which says
that the meek shall inherit the earth.
Moses, that great leader (of whom as
yet no statue stands on Manhattan is
land, but should at once), was called
the meekest man. 1t was in keeping
with the rest Of him. The meek men
do not stand in their own light. do
not trip over their own personality.

Hendricks himself was not over
confident at the opening of the season.
and declined to make rosy predictions.
but now his team, if he is able to
strengthen it by the addition of one
or two players from the majors, has
the appearance Of one that the PEN
