1t no good. second basenan is. add
ed by purchase or draft, Zimmerman
will be converted into a guardian of
the keystone, and the. search will go
on for third baseman capable of
filling the shoes of Heinie.
A shortstop must also be nabbed.
Whether this feat has been accom-
plshed through the signing of Fisher
remains to be seen. In the games he
has played so far the ex-Dodger has
pleased the eyes of Cub followers.
He has done everything asked of
him.
His fielding has been a treat, and
he has hit safely at least once in all
OF his games. In one combat he
dubbed three hits, a triple among.
them. And he'has comported himself
like a live man while on the bases.
OF course, no line can be had on
Fisher because of four games. He
has yet to prove his right to the job.
But he has made a brave start.
Bues, a prominent International
Lacquer, has been bought to take a
Whirl at the third basing. He was
used Saturday against New York,
Zimmerman switching over to second
base.
Bues smaeIed three balls with
proper force, but each dropped in the
hands of a waiting fielder. He ex-
hibited good judgment in picking the
proper ones to swipe at. Tesreau
was so good that failure to hit safely
is nothing to be ashamed of.
Should this Bues person make
good the 1915 prospects for a Cub
in1eld will be considerably brighten
ed. A major league infield this sea-
son would have given the Cubs an
open road to the pennant and a slice
of the worlds series coin.

continued, ending with tomorrow's

ly easy for the diminutiVe HEAVIER. He
has taken the jinx-hold Doc White
formerly possessed over the Nation
ais and has also supplanted Joe Benz
as a successful opponent of Walter
Johnson.
When the Nationals were at home
to the Sox, Wolfgang twice met and
vanquished the Great Walter. He
pitched and won the second game
yesterday, though Johnson. did not
oppose him.
WoIfgang is a real big league pitch
er. That is, he not only possesses a
capable arm, but has the head and
fielding ability to back up his me-
chanicaI work. He is one of the best
fielding pitchers in the business. His
bat is also powerful.
Ray SchaIk is another little fellow
who makes a lot. of difference to that
Sox team. Kuhn caught, the first
game yesterday Red is an earnest
workman and possesses good points,
but he cannot infuse his fellow-ath-
Ietes with life and vim like Schalk
does.
Throughout the first combat the
South Siders played with lack of pep
per. They couldn't get start against
Bentley until the eighth, and an i'm
pending rally then expired weakly
when Walter Johnson went to the
rescue.
But all this was reversed in the
afterpiece. SchaIk went behind the
bat to take Wolfgang's shoots, and
the smallest battery in captivity was
at work. Immediately the Sox took
a new lease on life.
They. began to hit Shaw, who has
always been a trial to them, played
eXcellently on the defense, and
SchaIk personally aided the score by
some clever baserunning feats. Add
ed to all this was Fournier's bat, the
Frenchman polling a triple and two

False Ideas of Liquor Addiction

There is an unjust prejudice against those who are addicted to drink which would be changed to sympathy if their cases were better understood. It is a common practice for people to uphold and defend social drinking, while the same people will censure and con- demn inebriety. It is a com mon practice to approve of al- coholic medicines and cry out against drunkenness.
 But all drunkenness and in ebriety find their origin in one of two causes, social drinking or alcoholic remedies. If it is no disgrace to drink socially, it is no disgrace to become poisoned by alcohol land that is what occurs when one con- tinues to drink for any length of time.
 Drinking leads to many acts gthat are disgraceful; but in it. Saelf it is no more disgrace to drink after one has reached the stage where it is impossible to get along without liquor than 1t was to drink moderately.

Criticize Diplomatic Service

SihtA>tsS NCt ' tCC
 It is asserted there is a strong possi- bility, if the liberal party remains long in power, of measures being taken to make British diplomats and army officers more representative of the democracy by abolishing social tests and paying higher salaries to those in the lower grades
 The tradition which now limits appoint ments in the diplomatic service to young men from the nobility and aristocracy, and which requires a private income of s2000 has lately been severely attacked by liberal newspapers and reviews, on the ground that this rule produces corps of gilded society butterflies without abil- ity in practical affairs. The whole Brit fsh diplomatic service, in fact, has been undergoing siege of unfrendly criti- cism, not only from outsiders, but from its own ranks as we'll
 Arthur PonsonDy, member of Parlia- ment, who spent more than eight years in the diplomatic service, testified before the royal commission which has been in vestigating the service, that at some posts, as at Copenhagen, he often had not more than half an hour of work a day and he thought this was a common ex- perience of men in the smaller embassies and legations
 He declared that most of the members of the diplomatic service of other coun- tries have a better education than the English from Eton and Oxford.
 There is no profession in which a woman figures so prominently as in di- plomacy.'' he added. 'The wife of a dip- lomatist is an extremely important per son, and under the present system with it's enforced exile our young diplomatists Very often marry foreigners. Tn certain embassy the wives of the staff conists of two Italians, one Spaniard, one Swede and one German. And that is a British embassy"

The craving g for drink should not be confounded with the conduct of a person while under its influence. Alcohol is a poison, and the craving for drink is a symptom of a pois- oned condition.
 If a man or woman were sui fering from ptomaine poison ing or any other kind of poison ing they would feel no hesita- tion or disgrace in going to a hospital to be cured of such poisoning. The same necessity exists where they are suffer ing from alcohol or narcotic poisoning. They go to Keeley Institutes because Keeley In stitutes make a speciality of curing the disease caused by that kind of poison, and there is no disgrace in being cured.
 A branch of the Keeley Insti- ute has been opened at 1914 Sixth avenue, Birmingham, Ala. Phone Main 4516. P. o. box 934. Write, phone or call on them for literature or any, information desired. All cor respondence confidential.

Barber a Man of Strenoth

suppose tHat most people," said d barber. would consider plying the shears and razor as comparatively easy work; they would not expect to find barbers men of muscle.
 srhe fact is that standing all day, ana even Tn the easier parts of his work using his arms all day in various nosi- tions the barber keeps his muscles in constant exercise. while in such op- erations as shampooine and message he Is called upon for the exertion of strength.
 He may not have the muscle of a man always in strict training, but I tnlnk you would find that as a rule the barber is no weakling."

CRITICIZE DIPLOMATS
Service Attacked by Liberal Papers as Being too Aristocratic and Merely Ornamental-May In-
 augurate Changes Soon

London, August S.-Breaches of diseip- Sandhurst, which is the West Point of the British army. have been so numerous lately that General Sir Charles Douglas, chief of the imperial general staff, who . recently inspected the school. sharply re- minded the students that they were not merely public school students but officers of the British army. During the past year there have been two expulsions and greater number of suspensions than sver before.
 In contrast with the strict discipline which Is understood here to be enforced It the American military establishment on the Hudson, the student fun and es- capades at Sandhurst are as common and as turbulent as at the public schools or averageeAmerican college.
 The local picture palace and a theatre were recently put out of bounds at Sand hurst on account of the rough behavior of the students. and the most popular hotel there has suffered the same pro- hibition. According to the newspapers, hazing has been unusually frequent.
 Mock funerals are sometimes awarded to popular men when they are separated from the institution. One cadet was given a funeral with full military honors, the ''corpse driving to the station in a cab with his riding boots hung reversed across the charger in the shafts.

MANY HUNTERS
TO WOODS AND
FIELDS TODAY
THE OPEN SEASON FOR SHOOT
HAVE LICENSES TO HUNT.

Many hunters will seek the woods
and fields today, for Il is the first day
of the hunting season and many had
made preparations last night to go to
favoTite spots in search of quail, doves
and other game. Up to late hour
yesterday afternoon Judge BeIlinger
had issued 246 licenses, 159 of which
were for hunting in the county only,
and 81 for the entire state. This is an
increase over the number which had
been issued last year up to the same
period.
OF course where persons hunt only
in the precincts in which they reside
no license is necessary, but there are
mighty few who care to be limited TO
such an area, even in the country.
Fair and cold weather for today
should provide good hunting weather,
provided the wind is nor too high, and
many of the hunting parties will leave
the city this morning before daylight
in automobiles, intending to travel
some distance and be on the ground
by daylight.
Shooting should be good as both
quail and doves are reported quite
plentiful, due to the protection which
they have had from game hogs dur
ing the past few years and many of the
hunters expect to return this afternoon
and tonight with well supplied bags.

FOUR MEN WERE
IN OPEN LAUNCH
FOR MANY DAYS
RUDOLPH WILLIAMS AND OTHERS
PUT INTO ST. ANDREWS, Ac-
coRDINe TO LETTER RECEIVED
HERE.

Uneasiness over the long absence Of
Rudolph Williams and four others was
allayed yesterday, when a letter was
received by the family Of one of the
men stating they were safe in the haT-
Dor at ST. Andrews.
The men, all of whom are engaged
in fishing, went out in a thirty five
foot open motor boat twelve days ago,
carrying provisions and supplying for
five or six days, by which time they
expected to return, as they did not in
tend going far out in snapper fishing.
The men had been in the habit Of going
out in the boat to the snapper banks
and after filing their boat with snap
pers returning, usually consuming
from three to five days. Consequently
they did not take any large quantities
of supplies along.
When they did not return within
a reasonable time some uneasincss
was felt and yesterday grave fears
were entertained for their safety, but
during the day relatives of one of the
men received a letter from him stating
the boat and all hands were safe in
st. Andrews.
It is supposed that the boat was un-
able to make any headway against the
strong north winds which have pre-
vailed for several days and was blown
down to point off st. Andrews, into
which haroor they decided to go.
