Bey, the Turkish ambassador. has left
Washington for New York and will
shortly sail for Turkey.
In a statement before leaving the
ambassador said he was quitting the
United States on leave of absence at
his own initiative.
He explained that this step. which
he had undertaken without comforting
with his government, with which he
had m been in communication, was
the result of the attitude of the Unit
ed States toward statements he had
made comparing lynchings in the
United States and the water cure
in the Philippines to massacres in
Turkey.

BASKETBALL WORK BEGUN
SQUAD PRESENTS MANY NEW FACES-PRACTIC SHOW
 ING GOOD MATERIAL

Some interest is being shown al ready in basketball practice. Fifteen or sixteen men are going out and a game or two is played every day. There seems to be more new men go- ing out for practice at present than old men. Consequently some old man may see a new fellow playing in his place when the season opens.
 The enthusiasm of the group spreads even to the spectators and the spirit of rivalry increases, when a practice game is scheduled between representative teams of the old and new men. Two such games have been played already and the old men won by small score. The new men lacked team work, which they will have after few more practice games. Among the new fellows are some high school stars who do good individual playing, and are expected to show even more class after a little more practice.
 Coach Reynolds and Prof. Wilson have both given some time to basket ball practice, in order to get the work started In about ten days the foot ball season will be thing of the past. and all the attention of the coaches will be given to basketball Many are asking about the basket ball schedule The manager, MT. AL bert Wilson, with the aid and advice of Coach Headrick, is now trying to complete the schedule for seven or eight day southern trip, going as far as Dallas, Texas, and playing about ten or twelve games. If this schedule cannot be arranged in the next few days, a similar schedule will be at tempted for trip north to St. Louis or Chicago. Besides this schedule a local schedule is being arranged.
 It is thought that so many will come out after the football season IS over, that some new courts will have to be made, and that the first two teams will be of equal strength, so the coach will have some trouble selecting first team.

DAYS DEVELOPMENTS
 IN EUROPEAN WAR

The advantage in the great battle which is being fought in the region between the Vistula and Wa"tha riv- CTS in Poland, it appears, is on the side of the Russians. A special dis patch received in Paris from Pecro- grad asserts the forces of Grand Duke Nicholas have won a decisive victory over the German troops undp., General von Hindenburg. Offical re- ports rom 10th German and Russian war offices indicate General von Hin denburg has been checked in his sec ond attack or Warsaw. That this battle is Icing fought with great .stubDorness is certain. Grand Oukc Nicholas, who for two days in sac Icession has recorded partial success les, has received endorsements and against this reinforced army Genc~al von Hinderburg is hurling his troops in impetuous assaults.
 In the west the Germans have b>en bombarding violently Ypres in Elan ders; Soissons in the valley of the Aisne, and Rheims, and have been making atta,ks in the Argcnne re gion. The Germans claim they have been gaining ground in the AIgonne district, but the French assert the al Jacks here have been repulsed Mi,i- tary experts cay this activity may be intended to draw attention from the quarter in which the supreme attack is to be made.

MASTERY.

What is it? Does 1t mean for the student to prepare good lessons for one day and the next day come un- prepared? Does it mean to skip over the hard places and get the easy parts? Does it mean to let your will lead you in a careless slipshod way? Most assuredly no. Improve your lives in order that you may be able to be master of yourselves, for, old stu dents as we'll as new, if you learn this lesson now you will be the reaper, thousand fold in the years to come. This world is looking for leaders. Leaders who are masters of their pro- fession. In fact, the great cry of the world in every walk of life is leader ship. The masses will readily follow if there is someone to lead them in the work. Self-mastery is the key that unlocks, to the man O. woman with a mind toward leadership, the mysteries of leadership. It will take constant effort to make the mind act in everything as it's owner says for 1t to do. but if the effort is consistent enough, mastery must be the goal toward which all this effort has been directed.
 On the other hand, when self-mas- tery has been attained, to certain degree, it does not mean that the end has come. It will mean that one will be called upon to do more than ever before. But the amount of work done will depend on the place one has reached in the mastery of self. There fore, added duties may mean less of actual work because the powers that do that work are directed in the proper channel. Utilize your time and make each moment count, for

HOW ID CURE 4
 CHRONIC COUCH
Told in the Following Letter
 by a Jackson Man Who
 Knows from Experience. His Word Is Good,

Jackson, Miss.-"I am a carpenter, and the grippe left me not only with a chronic cough, but 1 was rundown, worn out and weak. l took all kinds of cough syrups but they did me no good finally got so weak 1 was not able to do day 8 work, and coughed SO much was alarmed about my condition. One evening read about Vinol and decided to try it. Before l had taken quarter of bottle felt better, and after taking two bottles my cough is entirely cured, all the bad symptoms have disappeared and have gained new vim and energy" |" JOHN L. DENNIS, I'll Lynch Street, Jackson, Miss.
 The reason Vinol is so successful in such cases is because the active medic inal principles of cod liver oil contained in Vinol rebuilds X-esting tissues and supplies strength andvigor to the nerves and muscles while the tonic iron and wine assist the red corpuscles of the blood to absorb oxygen and distribute 1t through the system, thus restoring health and strength to the weakened, diseased organs of the body.
 If Vinol fails to help you, we return your money.

WORSE THAN IN MEXICO.

w OIIldu .\dllOldl WSChly.J
 Instead of berating Mexicans we should pick the beam out of our own eyes. In the state of Colorado an- archy exists, brought about by the avarice of the Rockefellers. The testimony of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., before the congressional Investigating committee showed that he has no more regard for human life than he has for a fly which might jump upon a piece of butter he was about to eat. Women and children are shot to death or cremated in their home by strike breakers and militiamen. How man can go out and murder his fellows for a few paltry dollars in order to fur ther enrich some plutocrat who would
 not give him the crumbs from his
 table, passes understanding. In the Colorado mining districts there are conditions which are as bad as those of the Congo country. Every year nearly a million immigrants are inn
 ported into the United States, the greater number by the giant corpora tions controlled by the Rockefeller group of financiers. These men are placed in mines where they become claves. They are promised a good wage. The high wage is delusion, for the miner must buy from the com pany store at gabulous rate of prof | it to the company. He must rent the company's house and patronize the
 company's doctors and druggists and worship in churches owned and con- trolled by the company. At the end | of the month he is brought out in debt. Some months he may by close economy save few pennies. Then he is laid off until he again gets into debt to the company. This is what is call ed peonage. It is what is at the bot tom of the revolutions in Mexico. It is responsible for the anarchy and murder going on in Colorado. Unin-
 formed persons imagine the miners
 are well paid They perhaps would
 receive good wage were they per-
 mitted to rent and buy in an open market as other laboring men are, but they are held in bondage. When they organize and rebel they are shot to death by hired assassins, for that IS all professional strikebreaker is. The federal government should take cognizance of conditions. A commit tee should be appointed by the presi- dent to make a thorough inyestiga- tion. The United States regular soldiers should be sent to back up the committee in order that the witnesses

PRESS OPINIONS
WHY PENTHOUSE" WON. Beaumont Enterprise.)

There was some little consterna- tion among the friends of equal suf- frage when it was discovered that a woman of lofty character and fine at tainments had been badly beaten in a race for alderman by the notorious ''Bathhouse John," and that the equal ly notorious "Hinky-Dink" had been returned with the usual majority. It was not seriously alleged that the lady had been counted out, nor that election frauds of any kind were re- sponsible for her defeat. She had simply been outvoted The people of his ward wanted "Bathhouse." Not that they admired and loved the lady candidate less, but they loved John more. It is significant, perhaps, that the women of the ward voted for and against the respective candidates in about the same proportion as the men.
 It is said that Mrs. Blazi, the fam ous Italian slum worker of Chicago, instructed her 300 women followers to vote solidly for Lighthouse John" Mrs. Blazi is probably the most in- fluential woman in Chicago. Her in fluence over the women of the tene- ment districts, particularly in the Italian quarter, is paramount. The women in those districts follow and obey her blindly. Her influence is based on her personal work for chari- ty in the slums. Nobody questions the nobility of her character, the purity of her motives nor the great efficiency of her work. She is one of the great practical philanthropists of her day.
 There is food for thought in the fact that Mrs. Blazi supported "Bathhouse John" or reelection, and against a good woman who was regarded as capable of filling the office ably. It is no "alibi" to say that she did it be- cause her husband, cheap ward poli- tician, told her what to do. She did what she thought was best for her people. It would be presumptuous or most people to undertake to say that Mrs. Blazi, with her long record of work in the tenment wards, her unselfish devotion to her people and her practical, hard-headed judgment, is entirely wrong. If anybody knows what is good for the people of "fBath- mousse JOuu WdIU, u Ou6Al lo UC Mrs. Blazi.
 With all his faults, this creature known as "Bathhouse John" takes care of his people. They re-elect him year after year because he stands by them in their troubles-and they have plenty of them; he helps them in their need; he understands them and, as far as he can he gives them what they want.
 It is quite possible that high brow" would give these people more of what they ought to have, but is it likely that an altruist would help to make them any happier, any more comfortable or any better than they are under the rule of this saloon keeper? From an outside viewpoint, | it is plain that the Hinky-Dinks and the Bathhouse Johns should be driven out and the reformers installed in their places, but as long as the Mrs. Blazis' support them it is going to be an uphill job.
