TAK0MA AGAINST
SCOUT SECESSION
Citizens Committee Urges Co.
operation to Remove Eric
ton.

Takoma troop of Boy Scouts will not
secede from the District headquarters.
At meeting of the citizens a special
ton of a separate council for the town
Of Takoma Park. Md, and the work of
Scoutmaster Fred L. Harries was COM
mended by W. G. Platt, president of the
Takoma Park Citizens Association, and
Samuel Scrivener, and j. B. Derrick.
The citizens voted to select a local
committee of five to share with the
scoutmaster some of the worries Incl
dent to his work
The report of the special committee
said in part:
I'VE are thoroughly convinced that 1t
would be greatly to the interest Of the
troop to remain in the District organi-
cation, and that any effort to form an
Independent council would be altogether
inadvisable, because the advantages at
forded a troop belonging to the District
Council, the seat Of the National Capt.
tai, are 30 unusual as to greatly offset
any that could possibly be acquired by
the establishment of an Independent
local organization.
we found that there had been more
or less friction between the scoutmaster
and headquarters officials
I'VE endeavored to ascertain the at
titude of the District headquarters with
respect to the troop, and learned that
the troop was considered one Of the best
in the council. High appreciation was
also expressed Of the services which had
been rendered by the scoutmaster.
We feel that the continued growth and
welfare of the troop demand that every
effort should be made to remove all
friction that may exist anywhere be-
pf a
In higher authority.
1--WE feel that the troops officers should
be governed by the spirit of cooperation,
and make effort to promote the troops
welfare"

toll, those gathered were told by
speakers, and they should march forth
into Fifth avenue and upon church
and restaurant, and hotel, and shop
and take what was theirs.
Emma Goldman, Carlo Tresca and
Alexander Berkman were some of
those who exhorted the restless
crowd.
No apparent effort was made by the
police to prevent the march up Fifth
avenue. A few detectives worked to
the front and dropped out one by one
to make reports by telephone to
headquarters. Meanwhile the march
ers gathered recruits as they pro-
ceeded.
AT 10th street the parade turned
east and stopped at the doors of the
Francisco Ferrer Association. There
a dozen policemen were waiting, but
the crowd was orderly and no arrests
were made.
Speakers announced that those OF
the unemployed who were homeless
and hungry would be fed and shell
tered for the night. Five squads of 80
men each entered the building and
were supplied with tobacco as well as
food Others of the unemployed were
cared for in lodging houses.
Some of the I. w. w. leaders CT the
unemployed, who have been holding
meetings in Rutgers square, repudi-
ated connection tonight with those
who marched today.

Getting Ready for
1914 Baseball

While the Trolley League nagnates
are busily engaged in preparing Tor
the great opening games OF the l9lf
season they are not the only ones VINO
are thinking of the great national
game. The Four-team League which
created such a sensation on the dia-
mond last year, consisting OF the
Bankers, Lawyers, Newspapermen and
BARRIERS, have scouts out looking Tor
promising material Although this
league was late in getting started last
season the different managers OF the
clubs this year plan to start the pail
rolling at the earliest opportunity Last
year the Bankers were the undlsputed
title holders, winning every game that
they played, but this year, say those
who should know. the 1914 pennant
when the season closes, will be hoat-
ing over some other club
1t was reported some time ago that
some of the star men on these CLUBS
had been offered good salaries to- go
ito the Federals, but as far as can be
learned this rumor has not been con-
firmed Manager Titcomb Of the Law
yers states that he has signed up some
new men and will have them in prime
condition when the season opens. the
Bankers are of course confident of du-
plicat ting their 1913 stunt but whether
their contention is true remains to be
seen. The Newspapermen are silent
but plan to be in the running. Harry,
Jones, the star third sacker OF the
BARRIERS, says that his arm is in great
shape and he feels capable of putting
up the best article of ball that he ever
has in his long career on the diamond
The different directors of the league
will soon meet and elect officers.

New York, March 22.-Under
silken black banner, bearing in blood
red letters the inscription "Demoli-
tione," 1000 men and women-Anar-
chists, the unemployed and members
OF the Industrial Workers Of the
World--marched up Fifth avenue for
miles Saturday without waiting to
ask Of the city authorities the per-
NIT required by ordinance.
Clouds obscured the sun and made
the noted thoroughfare a canyon of
gloom as the army" led by Alexan-
der Parkman, swept northward I'M
restrained. 1t was not a symmetrical
line of formation, but boisterous,
noisy crowd that jostled fashienably
clad women and men from the side
walks
There was no enforcing traffic rules.
Automobiles and trolley cars that
tried to pass through the ranks were
held up, chauffeurs and motormen be-
ing intimidated.
One woman in an automobile who
got in the way was spat upon by
woman in the parade. The marchers
chanted historically and shouted cpl
thets at the constituted government.
This demonstration, regarded as one
of the most extraordinary in the city's
history, was subsequent to mass
meeting in the streets near Union
square, where the throng had been
denied the right to gather. The wealth
of the nation was the product of their

position and the school officials realize
that he has unusual natural ability in
the work of the manual training de-
partment. 1t would seem that Mr.. Cog
gin was born for the work and his
work that is now on exhibition shows
also good training At his residence he
has samples of the various kinds of
work in manual training that VIII
probably be taken up here soon.
He is a native of Lynn, Mass, and
was educated in the public schools
there. In that city a manual training
course has been maintained for many
years and it was somewhat of a fore
runner of the continuation school and
the practical work there by Mr.. Cog
gin makes it probable that the system
will be largely in vogue in Skowhegan.
This includes, book binding, weaving,
cabinet work and the various Kinds OF
mortise and lemons work. Following
his course in the public schools he con-
tinued his studies at the Sloyd Train
ing school, Boston, where he took up
much practical work about the city
and had charge of the manual training
work in some of the schools OF Boston.
He later became foreman of the auto
mobile and motor department of the
General Electric Co. at West Lynn,
where he did much work in the direct
and alternating current system. For
some time he was connected with the
Boston Elevated Co. as operator and
also assisted in the manual training
work in the schools in Medford. Mr..
Coggin is about 90 years old, is mar
red and has one child.

LEWISTON TEAM WILL
BEGIN WORK SOON

Lewiston, March 22.--Tim Leonard,
secretary to Joseph w. Burns, arrived in
Lewiston Friday evening and brought
with him a lot of dope about the Lewis
ton team of the New England League and
a long string of questions as to the atti-
tude of Lewiston fans.
While the makeup of the team is the
main thing, the feature that will please
the Lewiston fans is that Tim Driscoll.
the Pilgrim twirler, will be on hand for
a tryout Those who have watched the
Lewiston box artist feel confident that
he can break into the league.
Another player that the fans would
like to see in a Lewiston uniform, and
whom they hope to see trying out for
a place, is Eddie Tewhey, the Pilgrim
shortstop, who set the Maine-New Bruins
wick League on fire, just the same as he
outshone every other shortstop around
these parts.
Secretary Leonard has with him the
season ticket books for the Lewiston
team and started out Saturday with the
intention of calling on everyone who ever
heard of baseball in town.
Secretary Leonard also looked around
town for a suitable Office site.
A hushel of mail Is awaiting him. and
n few more details concerning the team
will probably be known as soon as the
letters are disposed of.
The Lewiston team will appear in white
pencil-striped uniforms, bearing the
word Lewiston, when on the nome
grounds, and when out of town will wear
gray suits, also bearing the name oil
Lewiston.
The University of Maine wants to play
Lewiston at Orono April %, while game
between Bates and Lewiston for Patriot
day is being talked of. The Lewiston
men will report for practice April IA. and
the battery candidates possibly few
days earlier
