probably, but Detroit will have so
many ropes attached to him that no
club in the world but Detroit can land
him next season.
He is n rangy fielder In taking
throws he gives the infieders as wide
a target as Rossman used to, and that
is what infielders like above all things
some one over there on first who will
protect them on low, high and wide
throws. Pipp does this And he is
certainly a slugger in hitting. When
he meets that ball 1t travels. He has
a few faults as a batter, but can over
come these. and is overcoming them"
Several clubs are trying to get Pipp
away from Detroit. Jennings wants
to keep him right next to the big
leagues II he cannot use him for De-
troit, so that he win get experience
OF the best possible kind outside the
majors. II the younRster Is not on
the big line this year he will be there

The Bathtub Triumphant.

The rough young men OF Rome TOOK possession

liked their looks but because such was then the
way of conquerors To the vctors belonged the
charmers of the vanquished Later, civilization
marched on TO loftier levels and we find the great
Bonaparte seeking quite other game in Italy
Pictures statues etc, marched back across the Alps
with him. These were the accepted insignia OF
civilization and the cOnquerlng Corsican naturally
made off with all he could.
Now and lastly comes villa in his bathtub. If
anv evidence were really needed OF the great Fran
cisco's greatness here 1t is No women or marble
statues for him. The benevolent assimilation OF
conquered females is not extinct custom In his
country if renorts can be believed. But for such
man as marches on the Oldest capital or North
America all the way from the r Grande to
Chapultepec Hill no barbaric symbols are wanted
Only the highest noblest emblem will do-the last
word in the epic OF civilization.
Hence the bathtub the 81 900 bahtub from Chi

description ever wrought by the hand OF man
America did not invent the bathtub. but she pol

George Fred Cashiered.

Better late than never The administration has
at last requested the resignation OF George Fred
Williams. our irrepressible, tatwisting Minister
TO Greece and Montenegro. George Fred twisted
the tails Of the six great European powers which
are exercising a moral guardianship over the non
descript Kingdom Of Albania, ana for good meas
ure threw in q few insults to the unfortunate
Mpret now marooned in Durszzo. He knew that
he was committing an outrage on diplomatic con
vcntions when he published his sensational criti-
cisms But he also knew that he belonged to a
diplomatic service which might take many liberties
because many liberties had been taken with ii.
AS it was he lasted week in office after his
offence was called to the attention Of his superiors
at Washington.
Maybe George Fred argued that he would get
through unscathed because he was simply apply

which Mr.. Wilson has been talking about acting
upon in Mexico If ii is the mission Of the United
States TO secure a square deal for the submerged
81 per cent in Mexico, why shouldn't it also be
our mission to secure square deal for the sub
merged % per cent in Albania:
We don't know why. But George Fred must
now regret that hc ever studied too deeply Mr..
Wilson's utteranccs Oh the Mexican question. He
has been discharged for being too hastily idcaslc

DANIELS'S AFFILIATIONS
Secretary of Navy Is in Anti-Saloon
League, Writes a CORRESPONDENT.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The article in to-day's Tribune
OF Secretary Daniels's grape iuice
order going into effect was very we'll
written.
One strong point was quite over
looked. namely. that Secretary Daniels
is a member and high up in the coun-
ellis Of the Anti-Saloon League. If YOU
will look on page 225 Of the Anti-Saloon
League Year Book. 1914" you will
find as a member of the "neadauarters
committee" in North Carolina his name.
"Josephus Daniels. Raleigh. y. c."
Now. 1t is said to be an open secret
that Secretary Daniels paid Off a po-
litical debt when he issued his Crane
juice order. If that is so. then the real
significance of his action should be
known TO ;he people. 1t is certainly
coming to a pretty pass when a lot OF
self-appointed agitators and moral CEN
sors tan get up n league so strong
that they are able TO promote their
money making "crusades" through the
aid Of one of their members as Sccrc-
tary OF the Navy.
The connection OF Secretary Daniels
with the Anti-Saloon League is one
thing. but his prctence that he issued
his order so that temptation might
be removed from the younger officers"
is another thing. The whole profcs-
sional temperance movement is large
ly based on cant and hypocrisy. Those

WHAT is SCARLET FEVER?
Victim Seeks Information as to What
Hit Him.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Does any physician or Board
Of Health or individual know what
scarlet fever" is?
| have brought up family Of chill
dren and escaped that sickness until
now. and | am perfectly amazed at the
variety of possible symptoms and the
possible "afterciaps" of the disease.
Never having had it in the family
before. / have had to listen TO the
experiences of great many peOple,
and ! find that all sorts OF theories
prevail.
understand that more than 30 per
cent of the cases are children. and
some cases are so light that they are
not reported, while other similar cases
are reported and the six weeks quar-
antine is enforced.
Did this "siX weeks originate be
cause the victims are mostly children
Would the period of quarantine have
been less if the scarlet fever was
principally an adults disease. on the
theory that the adults time is worth
more than the infants?
What part in lull-fedged case does
the throat play?
Does the fever ever ran dangerously
high. like some other fevers?
when the scaling process begins, does
ii begin because the germs are dead
or is the old fashioned notion that the
disease is most contagious at that time
correct?
La case the room occupied by the
patient has not been thoroughly disin-
fected. could the disease be contracted
by another sleeping in that room
year later
Why are some patients deaf after an
attack. and others have crooked necks.
and others have no bad effects at all,
but rather are in better health than
before the attack?
have not read any discussion on
these points. hear great deal about
tuberculosis. typhoid fever, diphthcrla,
etc. but nothing about scarle; fever.
Do the societies Of medical research
realize the mystery Of all this, and
are they busy at it. trying to solve IT.

ment and discussion in this open

such purposes.
