British Reply to American Note oe-

LONDON, Jan 10, 1905 y. m.-The
British reply TO the American note oc-
cupies the attention OF the British
press and public in the absence Of any
important news from the battlefields.
The German and French official re-
ports OF the fighting in the western
field are almost 4 repetition OF those
issued on preceding days. A British
eyewitness who has been the official
historian Of events at the front lays
stress on the important part played
BY the artillery and high explosives in
modern warfare, and claims superior
ity for the allies in artillery, which Is
being used 10 its full strength.
From the coast TO the river Disc,
where the country II under water and
the rivers are flooded, the big guns

the water and mud prevent the infan-
try from coming into action. Along the

700 PENNIES EARN $175
Sunday School Pupils Give Practical
Demonstration of parable
of the Talents"

Frankfort, Ind.-How 700 Lincoln
pennies grew into $175 in year was
related at the Methodist Sunday
school here. The school wishes a
new chapel, and the superintendent
decided to test the practicability of
the Parable of the Talents" He dis
tributed 700 pennies among the 700
pupils, who were told to increase the
amount as much as possible during
the year.
AS the classes and pupils were
called on to make their report, the
Y. w. B. G. class, composed of 81
young women, reported having made
$31.37 from the 81 pennies The Ok
ford class was next, turning in $26.69.
The home department class was a
close third with $25.

Schalk is bundle of energy. On
the bench he shows the same aggres-
sive spirit he does back of the bat.
He is always the first of Comiskey's
players to report for morning practice
and he is working hard to perfect his
batting power. Just now Schalk is
showing rare form at bat and speed on
the bases.
Schalk was a particular pet Of Kid
Gleason, former White Sox coach. 1t
was Gleason who took the youngster
in hand when the Sox bought him
from Milwaukee, Schalk showed abil-
ity from the start, but he was a little
rough on certain plays
For a while he had trouble in solv-
ing the delivery of Walsh. Gleason
took pains to coach the kid. He got
down on his knees back of the plate
and showed Ray how to stop Walsh's
low splitter Billy Sullivan, the vet
eran catcher of the Sox staff, was al
ways one of Schalk's particular ad-
visers. Ray always had the whip,
but he had to be shown the weakness
of various batters, and now he looks
like the best ever seen in Chicago
back Of the bat.
Vilas County news. [volume] (Eagle River, Vilas County, Wis.) 1896-1927, 1915-04-14

After all the fans have been heard
from regarding the spectacular work
of Ray Schalk, formerly Of the Brew
ers, who is drawing pay from the
White Sox ball club as catcher, few
remarks on the youngster from the
boss, Charles A. Comiskey, might be
interesting.
"On all sides / hear good things
about Schalk, and his actions back
of the bat bear them out" said the
Old Roman, in discussing his prize.
"Schalk shows more life than any
player 1 have ever seen. He is level
headed and his thinking and natural
ability stamp him as one of the great
est catchers in the world today, and
he can claim equal distinction with
the great and only Buck Ewing, con-
sidered in his day the peer Of all back
stops"
Commy isn't given to boosting play
ers very often. He likes to see his
boys win and wants to know what's
the matter when they fail. But he
has been sweeter on Schalk than any
youngster who has broken into the
game since Ed Walsh came to the
front.
