New League wants to Participate In
the worlds SERIES.

New York. Sept 19.-The Fedora,
League through It's president James A.
Gilmore, to-day addressed a Challenge
to the National baseball commission for
participation in the worlds series of 1915
The executive Of the independent or
ganization requests a series between tho
winner of the Federal League remnant
and the winner Of the series between the
National and American League con-
tenders Gilmore states that the Federal
League will leave the entire arrange
ments for such series in the hands of
the National commission and agrees to
give its entire share of the receipts to
any charity share by n committee, the
personnel OF which is given in the fol-
lowing challenge:
"Gentleman: on behalf of the Federal
League. hereby challenge the winner
of the series between the National and
American Leagues of 1915 for series of
as many games as you may suggest, for
the baseball championship of the world.
Tho Federal Leagues share Of the
receipts. win or lose, to be turned over to
any charitable organization selected by
committee composed of Hon. Woodrow
Wilson, Hon William Halo Thompson.
mayor of Chicago. and Hon. John Purroy
Mitchell, mayor Of New York.
I'm my unanswered challenge Of 1914
to you I fully elaborated on why the
worlds championship in baseball could
not be properly decided without tho Fed
eral League being represented. Therefore,
no necessity of again outlining our rea-
sons,
ct am sure that the American public
want an undlsputed champion OF the
great national game and not an alleged

DUCK TIME.

The leaves on the trees are brown and
sere;
The grass is withered and dead,
And tho sky Is blue of the deepest hue
In the narrow chinks o'erhead.
SO you pause, perhaps. in the citys
streets,
AS you level your gaze on high.
For you hear call through the dim
smoke pail
When the ducks go drifting by.
The lure OF the wild gets in your blood,
For the tang Of the wind is sweet;
And your pulse burn as you long to turn
Where the land and the waters meet :
Where the winds wall low through the
fringing sedge.
And whitening cat-tails, dry;
Where the ripples break on a dead calm
lake
When the ducks go drifting by.
Then It's back to the wild, when the sun
comes up,
And the twilight dawn fades fast:
When you lay in your blind. for you hope
to find
A shot, as the birds drift past
When the pin-tails quack in the feeding
grounds.
And the blue-bills venture nigh,
Then roar and fiash-and the waters
splash
When the ducks go drifting by.
You who arc chained to your desks o.:
wood,
In the heart Of the busy hum,
Turn back a space for breathing place
When bracns October's come;
There's a hunters camp. and a hunters
life,
And many a shot to try:
And tales to tell by the fire, as we'll.
When the ducks go drifting by.

ESCAPE FROM WAR CRAFT
by Hiding Behind Dense Screen of
Smoke from OIL Fuel.
(From Pearson's Magazine.)


The accuracy Of modern naval gunnery
Is so marvellous that the only hope for
ship to escape being sunk when within
range of the guns is to hide itself. This
Is easier said than done. however. and
there is only one way in which 1t can be
done, and that is by means OF smoke
screen" 1t Is hard for one ship to hide
herself behind her own smoke, unless the
wind Is favorable, but for number of
ships to put a huge fog of black smoke
between them and their pursuers Is COM
paratively easy. The smoke Is caused by
oil fuel, and 1t can be turned off or on
at will by supplying more or less air to
the furnaces. 1t Is so dense and black
that it is quite impossible to see more
than a few yards through it. 1t will be
remembered that Admiral Sir Eavid
Beatty mentioned the German smoke
screen In his dispatch Of the battle OF
the North sea. To use his own words.
THE enemy's destroyers emitted vast col
umns of smoke to screen their battle
cruisers. and under cover of this the lat
ter altered their course. "-Pearson's Mag
azine.

cisely the most militant peoples Of Eu-
rope. Germans, Poles. Swedes. Hungar-
ians. Bulgars. Turks-did history ever re-
cord so virile a combination? But tho
Germans realize. better than any other
people, that modern military power is
based upon economic power. and German
victory would be initiative in the fields
Of industry and commerce The political
alliance would be bound together by n
network OF commercial treaties creating
practically a mid-European customs
union.
From tho Arctic ocean to the Persian
gulf, trade. capital and enterprise would
move. II not freely. at least subject to
minimum International limitations Tho
rich swedish ores would be imported In
increasing volume into Germany to be
transformed into rails and bridge ma
tertal for the development of transporta-
tion to the Balkans and Asia Minor The
wool and hides OF Turkey and the Bal
kan states would be absorbed by Hun
garian and German industry; the devel-
opment of Balkan agriculture. and the
inevitable trade of the Black sea. would
solve the food problem of north Germany
and Sweden. The inflnity of house pro-
auctions of Sweden and Finland would
find n responsive market In the prosper
ing industrial centers of Germany and
southwark. With German capital and
management. Anatolia would again be-
come a garden. as in the days of the
Seleucidae. II Germany wins tho basis

politan industrialism than the world has

THE ACME OF MANNERS.
(From the Milwaukee Journal.)

Manners" some one says. ARE the
minor morals" Say rather they are the
outside symptoms of good morals. For
good manners rise from consideration for
others; they are the testimony to our
recognition Of the principle that no man
liveth to himself
So a little thing as not interrupting an
other person Is our acceptance of every
ones right to that same privilege We
challenge for ourselves OF being heard.
A green youth overcome by his own
sap!ence. making himself heard loudly
and listening little. Is set down not mere
ly rs efficient In training and etiquette,
but as lacking in common sense. And
anyone whom the music of his own vain
tongue doth ravish like enchanting har-
mony" exhibits rarely poor Judgment
of the relative Importance OF things
Mayhap 1t doesn't seem closely allied to
morality that n man rises when n lady
enters the room. but 1t is Among saw
ages they don't do that sort of thing;
force alone compels respect. The hon.
age of civilized man to other qualities Is
the reflection of his truer sense of values.
The other day We saw young girl, II

tentively while her father told a story
she had heard often, One sees so much
OF inattention and smirking depreciation
OF fathers or mothers hobbies that it
was pleasant thing. We credit that lit
tie lady with far more than mere good
training. with the right kind Of heart
For truly good manners mean more than
technics they bespeak the true man and

country. Two years later he returned
to California, but contracted yellow
fever and was the only survivor of

THREE WAYS OF STARTING.
There are three ways of getting started
with small flock as outlined above.
First-Secure Matching eggs and an in
cubator. II the incubator Is correctly
handled, and the hatch turns out salts
factorlly, this method Is doubtless the
cheapest, but a beginner will frequently
overlook some important details of In
cubation and thus make his investment
Improbable.
Secondary baby chicks These usual
ly cost double the price Of Matching eggs.
While the beginner does not have the
trouble of incubation, there are difficult
ties raising the chicks and this way Of
starting-like the buying of eggs for
hatching-may be followed only in the
spring.
Third-Buy laying hens or pullets, pre-
ferably pullets, because they usually lay
the heaviest in their first year. This
method costs more at the start. but is
probably the safest for the beginner. and
can be used at any time of the year. es-
pecially in the fall and winter when the
demand for eggs is heaviest.
In the selection of breeds it pays best
to get what is known as standardized
varieties; that is. those that have been
bred for n definite purpose like egg pro-
duction, or n combination of egg and
meat production. They are more attrac-
tive. being uniform in color and will pro-
duce both eggs and meat more satisfac-
torily than a mixed lot.
For eggs alone. the Single Comb White
Leghorns are recognized as the leading
variet:. II II Is desired to produce f~nth
eggs ard meat the Plymouth IN r..
Rhode Island Reds, Orpingtons ana -
andottes all are valuable, and any of
these will prove profitable as "dual-pur-
pose fowls
Poultry raisers who are operating on
small scale often make the mistake of
attempting to carry too many fowls or
expecting too large n profit on small!
number Of fowls especially at the be-
ginning. A beginner should remember
that he will make errors in feeding and
caring for the fowls, and that his profits
will be small until he learns to manage
them. But as an Offset against this will

Ing the fowls himself and Of being able
to raise his own products-products that
he knows are high In quality.

ice Of their own. Trains We're operated
wholly by time card rules, which pro-
vided that one train would wait at a GER
tain station until another train had pass
ed. If one train was late at the meet
ing point the other was required to wait
IL hours or until the other showed up.
Such condition existed on the winter
morning in February. 1852. when the
first telegraphic train order flashed
over the wires. The north-bound train,
due to meet the south-bound train at
Middlebury, was in a snow bank in the
Green mountains south of Rutland. Mr.
Copeland. who worked in the post-office
at Middlebury at that time, was also
the local telegraph operator
The conductor Of the south-bound train
was. Of course, unaware of the stalled
train at the south. and only knew that
he and his passengers had before them
wait at Middelbury anywhere from II
minutes to IL hours. when at the expira-
ton Of the later time his train regained
its right to proceed to Rutland. AS the
length of delay increased, the restless,
irritated passengers grew bold and wan
dered uptown from the depot. Some Of
them struggled into the postofiice and
happened to tell Copeland of the delay
The operator thought a moment. Then
he said: you bring the conductor up
| here and perhaps We can fix 1t so that
| you can go on to Rutland without wait
| ing for the north bound train" The con-
ductor demurred. but finally acceded to
the demand of his irate passengers.
Upon arrival at the post-office Mr.
/ Copeland handed him n message from
his superintendent at Rutland. 1t read
| something like this North bound train
In snow bank south OF here. You come
| on down to Rutland and / will not let
any train go north until you arrive"
Mr. Conductor read his order. looked
Copeland straight in the eye and said. 81
am afraid to do this. | might be taking
a chance. How do / know 1t is genune?"
Copeland quietly replied. "Ill ride on the
| engine to Rutland" That settled it and
the train went on its way, the passengers
| rejoicing and heartily thanking the
| operator. who kept up n wonderful
| amount of thinking while quietly sitting
In the cab from Middlebury to Rutland.
Mr. Copeland's happy thought result
ed In the dispatching of trains by tele-
graph over the Rutland railroad after
that date. The method was quickly
adopted by other railroads and eventual
ly came into use throughout the world.
