Napoleon of the 2Oth Century
From the Scientific American

The hope of success for GERMANY
depends upon the quick accomplish
ment OF two stupendous results:
First, a defeat of the combined
British and French fleets so over
whelmlng as to give to Germany the
complete control of the sea: and
second. the launching of the flower
OF her army against the French in
an attack so swift in movement and
SO overwhelming in numbers, as to
crumple up and break through the
defense, and enable the German
army to repeat the triumph of 1870,
and march as conquerors through
the boulevards of Paris! This
would leave her free to strike with a
like swiftness and concentration at
Russia; and with the diversion pro-
duced by an Austrian advance into
Russia to the eastward, she would
seek to fight her way resistlessly
through the Russian defense and
capture st. Peterburg.
But to swiftly concentrate an
army of the enormous size necessary
for an overwhelming defeat of the
French defense. it was necessary to
violate the neutrality of a friendly
nation, and, so. to the calamity of
the Italian detection has been added
the burden of war with the COM
bined forces of Great Britain. Bel
gium and Holland.
1t is this complication that seems
to spell the ultimate overthrow of
the greatest and most efficient mill
tary organization the world has ever
seen. For if, as is probable, the
German feet is crushed or driven
under the shelter of its seacoast
Notifications. and shut up there for
the rest of the war, Germany will be
so absolutely blockaded that not
pound of foodstuff will find its way
into her dominions. She is not self

ESTABLISHED 1870

Chief among the many dramatic
features of the opening scenes of the
great European war drama. is the
superb daring with which the Ger
man "War Lord" has launched his
mighty army against what is prac-
tically the united naval and military
strength of the rest of Europe.
For the neutrality of Italy has
withdrawn from the Triple Alliance
a great army and a powerful navy
of the most modern type. This de-
fection leaves the Mediterranean Sea
so completely in the control of the
Triple Entente, that the Austrian
fleet will probably never venture
forth from the protection of its naval
base. The Austrian army has yet to
win its laurel; for, as every student
of history knows, the military his
tory of Austria has been marked
more by defeat than victory. With
Russia's army of triple her own
strength to the north, and with the
warike Servians and a doubtful
Italy to the south, Austria will be so
closely concerned with her own de-
fense, as to be able to render but
limited assistance in the immediate
field of operations covered by the
German armies.
Upon Germany, then, will fall the
stupendous task of inflicting de-
cisive defeat upon the combined
armies Of France. Russia. Great
Britain, Belgium and Holland, and
as seems not unlikely. of Denmark
also.
And, as if this were not enough,
Germany has boldly flung the gaunt-
let in the face of the greatest naval
power the world has ever seen-a
power as pre-eminent upon the
Seven Seas as is her own matchless
army upon the battle-ground of Eur
rope.

PROMINENT MUSICIANS. MARRIED
Miss Clara Poole Becomes Bride of
Mr.. Harold Sahaffer, on Saturday
Last-Wiil Reside Here.

Miss Clara Poole daughter of Mr..
ana Mrs II. Is. Poole. was united in
marriage to Mr.. Harold Schaifer at the
home of her parents in this city on
Saturday afternoon at O'Clock, Rev.
j. II. Senseney performing the ccre.
mony. The wedding was u quiet ai-
fair and only the relatives and imme-
u:ate friends OF the two families We're
in attendance.
The bride has been resident of
Denson for the past three years and
during that time has made many
friends. She is member of the IT,
H. club and is an accomplished muse
ian and has appeared on musical pro-
grams frequently.
Mr. Schaffer came to Denison from
Eagle Grove last May and is engaged
as a piano tuner and musical director.
Recently he organized the Denison

great ability.
The happy couple left Sunday morn

parents. Upon their return to Denison
they will make their home in the resi-
dence just east of the Chas. Jones

Denison played good consistent
game of ball, but luck was against
them and they had to be satisfied with
holding the visitors down to a small
score. Denison made but four errors
in this game, two being marked up
against Richards at shortstop and two
for Mote at second. The Luxius

Manila Game Monday
The Manila aggregation came over
for game on Monday and walked
away with Denisons scalp by a close
score of 2 to @, but it is hard to make
the local fans believe that Manila had
the better team for they seem to be
of the opinion that the umpire from
Manila handed the game to his home
team on silver platter by the decis-
ions that he made. From all reports
it was an exciting game and at times
it was necessary for the officers to go
out on the diamond and compel the
crowd to stay away from the players.
Personally, We hate to see this kind
of conduct no matter how raw the de-
cisions are and we would rather give
the game to a visiting team than re-
sort to rough house tactics. Disinter-
ested spectators say that there was
no occasion for so much rag chewing
and that both teams made errors and
the umpire's judgment favored one
side as much as the other. With the
excellent athletic field Denison now
has it is to be hoped that with the
opening of next years season an i'm
partial umpire may be secured for all
games and that as far as the Denison
team is concerned controversy on the
ball ground not legitimate will be dis
pensed with and that the boys will
conduct themselves as gentlemen and
demand the same from visitors.
There is no question but what Ma
nilla has fine bunch of ball players
and we concede that they won the
game fairly. Leo Collins did the pitch
ing for Denison and played q remark
ably good game of ball. Collins has
not had much experience pitching, but
we predict that he will make a:record
for himself within year or two.

Dcnison's seventh annual chautau-

large crowds have been in attendance
at every program thus far and 1t is
the opinion Of most everyone that this
years entertainment has been better
than those presented at the previous
chautauGuas. The six days Of enter

cessful and without a single exception
each number has been well worth the
price OF season ticket. The attend
ance might have been even better had
the dates been more favorable and
coming as they do right in the midst

able to attend. but we understand that
pressure will be brought to bear upon
the management OF the Redpath-Vaw-

Four Games at New Athletic Field

LACK or TEAM PRACTICE
Two Games Yet to Be Played and the
Goys A.e in Hopes Of Kidding
Thcm:cIvc: Of the "Jinx"

A lack of practice and team work on
the part Of the Denison nine has
brought about the defeat of the local
team at every game they have played
during chautauqua week, but even
though Denison has failed to come out
of the series up to date with single
scalp, they can pride themselves over
the fact that they have been playing
good ball and had they had the
grounds to practice on earlier in the
season they would have won major
ity CT the games.
Nearly all of the players are veter
ans at the game and understand base
ball from start to finish, but have been
handicapped on account of having no
place to practice, and considering this,
the boys have made a good showing
against teams which have already been
playing for a number of weeks and
have held them down to close scores.
Played Dow City Wednesday.
The first game of the series was
played with Dow City last Wednesday
afternoon and it was this game that
officially marked the opening of Deni-
son y new dlnittlC lltIu. / He new
band turned out on this occasion and
marched with the visiting nine and
the locals to the ball ground, where a
large crowd was in attendance.
The invincible Louie Jacobsen, of
Ute did the twirling for Denison, bat
it happened to be his off day and Dow
City clouted him almost at will, secur-
ing 8 hits in all during the game. The
locals made only four errors during
this game. while the visiting team had
six chalked up against them.
In the seventh inning Denison went
to pieces and it was this inning that
won the game for Dow City. Up until
the fifth inning it was an even game
and looked as if it would be hard
battle for either side.
