BASE BALL
LEAGUE PROPOSED.

$. l.. Dodds has written let
ters to the business clubs of
Fulton, Union City, Martin, Tip
tonyille and Hickman, proposing
the organization of amateur base
ball teams for each town and
arrange a schedule of games dur
ing the season. According to his
suggestions, the teams would be
entirely local, with not more than
two of them salaried men. No
gate fees would be charged, but
the expenses of the game to be
met by popular subscription. In
this way, more attendance would
be assured. This matter was
talked OF last year, but nothing
was done. The business leagues
of the towns are working on the
matter and something definite
will be known in a few days. In
the meantime, those who are in
tereSted in such "A movement
might talk up the matter and as
sist the local business club.

dency of the United States and
author of nearly 30 peace treaties
with the principal nations of the
world, resigned today as secre-
tary of state As = dramatic sequel

dent Wilson over the govern

The resignation was accepted
by the president. The cabinet
then approved the response which
mad been prepared TO the German
reply TO the Lusitania note. Act
ing Secretary Robert Lansing will
sign the document and tomorrow
| il will be cabled TO Berlin.
Secretary Bryan will return 20
private life tomorrow, when his
resignation takes effect. 1t was
learned that he intends to con
tinue hisSpolitical support of the
president.
Rather than sign the document
which he believed might possibly
draw the United States into war,
Mr. Bryan submitted his resigna-
ton in letter declaring that

ment that TO remain a member of

President S Letter.

MY Dear Mr.. Bryan accept
your resignation only because you
insist upon its acceptance; and
| accept it with much more than
deep regret, with a feeling of
personal sorrow. Our two years
of close association have been
very delightful to me. Our judg-
ments have accorded in practical
ly every matter of official duty
and of public policy until now !;
your support of the work and pur-
poses of the administration has
been generous and loyal beyond
praise; your devotion to the du.

ample 10 the rest of us; you have
earned our affectionate admlra-
ton and friendship. Even now we
are not separated in the object We
seek. but only in the method by
which we seek IT.
1T is for these reasons my
feeling about your retirement
from the sccretaryship OF state
goes so much deeper than regret.

Hiah ExpIosIxe sheIIa.

One Of the surprises of the war has
been the great relative demand for
high explosive shells as compared
with the demand for shrapnel The
consumption of both has exceeded all
estimates, but it Is shell that the new
conditions have most strikingly af-
fected. There was time when it was
considered more noisy than dangerous
and in field operations more useful to
shake the enemy's nerve than to in
flict damage; while as to the deadli-
ness of shrapnel against an enemy that
1t could reach there has never been
question. But In the elaborate
trenches employed in this war the men
are fairly well sheltered from shrap-
mel, and for the special purpose of pre-
pairing the way for an attack high ex-
plosive shell in prodigious quantities
is required. That the British are still
short Is indicated by the complaint of
the Times correspondent that the ad-
vance attempted near Fremelles was
weakened by forced economy in the
use Of ammunition. The French seem
to be better OF, and If the Germans
have felt any scarcity on either front
they have succeeded in keeping it a
secret, which is the next best thing
to having plenty

Where ArIstocrats shine.


Your aristocrat is doubtless often a
very Objectionable person and in a
Democratic country like this we affect
to turn up our noses at him and regard
him as cumberer Of the earth. Yet
1t must be said for him that worthless
as he may be in peace, and contrary
as his claims of superiority may be
to all proper principles Of natural
equality, he rarely, almost never, fails
to give good account of himself when
his country needs him in a great crisis.
In the French revolution the old no.
sbility of France showed the world that
they knew how to die If theysdid not
know how to live. And the casualty
lists which are being published In
London now prove once more that
when it comes to courage and patriot
ism the "aristocrat" Is seldom found
in the rear At the rate at which the
aristocrats are being killed at the
front in France and Belgium there will
be no lords and gentlemen" left In
Great Britain If the war lasts much
longer. If all the common" people
in England were doing as we'll, there
would be no criticism of English pa
triotism. In spite of their leanings to
democracy, American sympathizers
with the allies, in view OF the promi-
hence of titled names on the honor
roll of the dead, might almost be in,
clined to wish that the entire British
nation was composed of aristocrats
today. Can 1t be true after all that
there is a real significance in the old
phrase will tell' and mo.

Achieved Fame Early.

It Is astonishing how many promi-
nent players now before the public
were well on the road to fame at the
early age of twenty-one, says a writer
in the Theater Magazine. Patti made
her reputation at the age of eighteen,
and when she was twenty-one was al
ready making speciality Of farewell
tours. In 1904, at the age of sixty
three, she made her twelfth farewell
to America at $4,000 a night, and
many predicted 1t would prove her last
adieu, but Adelina, now hale and
sprightly at the respectable age Of
seventy-four, is threatening positive
ly final" farewell to the land Of dol
lars next fall. At twenty-one, Maude
Adams had emerged from lurid melo-
drama to become leading lady for e..
H. Sothern in "The Highest Bidder"
When Minnie Maddern (Mrs. Fiske)
attained the age OF twenty-one, her
career was full of achievement. Annie
Russell made her first stage success
with juvenile "Pinafore" company.
At twenty-one she became a star as a
result Of her great triumph in "Esmer-
aida E. H. Sothern was twenty-one
when he appeared with the late Helen
Dauvray, and he did so well that Dan
lei Frohman decided he was of stellar
timber, and featured him In "The
Highest Bidder"

Politicians, Letters.

President Van Buren, had the reputa.
ton Of being the wisest politician of
his day. His political enemies named
him the "Kinderhook Fox" Among
the political aphorisms attributed to
him was this advice to his son, popu-
larly known as Prince john" my
son, never write on political matters,
If you can avoid the necessity by max.
ing trip Of $50 miles," This was in
stage coach days, when journey of
f50 miles means as much in waste time
and practically in money cost as trip
across the continent means today.
Politicians generally have been popu-
larly credited with having taken this
advice to heart and followed it as
closely as possible; but every once In
while something crops up to show that
the popular impression on this subject
is a delusion. Politicians, like other
people, continue to write letters, and
letters written in the past continue to
appear, occasionally to the confusion
of writer's, even when the precaution
has been taken In writing to attach
the Injunction: Burn this letter"
Often it is the letter which should have
been burned which is the one and only
one to be retained and to reach ulti-
mate publicity.

War az Seen In the Ranks.

The Museum of Hamburg History
has begun the collection of soldiers
letters from the front to relatives at
homes, and the latters' replies, as an
adjunct to it's archives connected with
the war.
The aim is to get, not the writings
Of officers and the exceptionally well
educated, but the humble comments
OF those who have written without
any expectation that their words ever
would be published, and therefore
were completely unconscious.
The proponents of the plan want to
get an insight into the patriotism,
courage, hate and love OF peasant and
citizen, worker and storekeeper by
which they were actuated while at the
front, to know their feelings as they
thought Of their homes, their rela
tives and their families.
