able improvement this spring. Men
ton may be made of Harrington
who is trying first basing instead Of
the outfield, as heretofore; Span and
Clay at third, Henderson at second,
and Singleton, Breen and Malone in
the outfield Little Reynolds, last
year on the Boys High, demon
strates that he is a clever fielder. at
the least while Newsom and Flem-
lister are additions in the backstop-
ping line, Fielder is another old
man who has been used principally
in the box heretofore. He would
make a marvellous outfieder if he
could only pick up in his clouting.
Merrill Holland at second base was
kept out of the game puiposely all
of last season so as to mature his
game and give him the benefit Of
making a try for the varsity during
his last three years of college life.
| expect him to make a strong bid
for second.
Burr and Poland are two extra
good looking new men for the out
field. If the weather will only clear
up now we shall soon be able to get

full golf course became waste land.

PROVISIONS ARE IN PLENTY
Accounts of Decentralization and
Scarcity in Germany are Much
Exaggerated

BY Herbert Temple, European Manag-
er Of the international News Service.
London, Sept. 25.-Contrary to
the reports that have been circulated
here and in the United states. Berlin
is not demoraIized and pan:c-str.9k-
Ell 10y the war, according to Philip
II. Wood, an American, who has just
reached London from the German
capital
In Berlin conditions are almost
normal, Wood said, and things are
going on With little change. . There
is little excitement.
Life is going on practically the
same as usual" he said. There is
no more difference than there is in
London. The price of food is the
same as-Defore the war; the cafes are
all open and have their bands play
ing; there are almost as many con-
certs; many of the theaters still
have full houses, and save for the
suppressed excitement, there is very
little to show that Germany is in a
state of war. l never saw any ref
ugees''
Wood who made a point of talking
with as many people as possible in
| Germany, did not observe any anxi-
| ETY. as to the food supply. Apparent
ly no one was taking any pains TO be
economical, and he was told by sew
eral authorities that there was
enough food already in the country
to last Is months.
There was also optimism as to the
result of the war.
THE general view said Wood,
twas that if the Germans don't win
they will make it a draw. They are
satisfied that their army can never
be beaten, and that the most the al
lies can hope for is stale-mate.
Even if they have to retreat from
France, they are confident that they
will be able to defend their own
country for an indefinite time.
81 asked two officers if they had
considered the possibility of defeat
and one said, Yes, it may be just
possible; but if so we should not be
here, and in all Germany there would
not be more than so, 900 men left be-
tween II and So
'TMy own opinion added Wood
sis that the war will be stopped by
mediation Within month. But when
I suggested it to a German officer he
said, It's no good talking to us about
mediation until we've occupied Pari:
and st. Petersburg. Then We might
listen to you.
Wood found considerable bitter
ness against England, and he was

cArps ON COTTON

Mr.. william Caps. president OF
the Fort Worth Record Company is
not cotton Spectator, nor has he
been classed as cotton seller. He is
business man and takes business
view OF affairs.
He has recently been over several
cotton growing countless in Central
Texas and he says the Texas Cotton
crop is far shorter than people have
thought. He says the worms have
done vast damage In the blackland
country. He says the entire cotton
crop may yet show up not over A.
900, 900 bales.
Mr.. Caps says further that the
talk going the rounds about no de-
mand for cotton abroad is not true.
Spinners In the East are piling up
orders for goods and orders are COM
Ing In for cotton:
Cotton is a gold crop Cotton
products are in demand the world
over and the demand must be sup
piled, Read the New York trade pap
ers, in fact the trade papers Of the
world. and you will discover that
manufacturers and spinners and mill
owners are getting orders from a.

South America. and Asiatic and Al
rlcan lands This trade for the most
part has been by Europeans They
are at war with their neighbors and
cannot supply the needs OF their
old customers Others must step In
and take their trade. The South
grows the cotton. It has the cotton.
Now what is to keep cotton held for
a year. or until 1915, from selling
for a fancy price.
While on his trip, Mr. Capps was
told by a Banker friend Of at least
one case where farmer sold cot

the middle man sold II in the east
for II cents. He says the draft
shows 1t. Yet there are men who say
