Baseball's Honesty Again.

It takes a worlds series to prove the
honesty OF baseball, and the games this
year as we'll as those of last fall should
be sufficient to convince the doubling
Thomases that the national game Is
strictly on the level. Going into the iifth
game the count stood three to one in
favor of the Red Sox. There would not
have been the slightest suspicion pointed
toward Duffy Lewis in the eighth inning
II he had done otherwise than tied the
score, nor would Harry Hooper have
been suspected of anything had he used
less energy In meeting the ball in the
ninth Inning. But the game was on the
level. and Hooper's hit meant that the
Boston club would have to return more
than $4,000 to fans" who had paid in
advance for a possible third game In the
Hub, The termination Of the series with
the fifth game will not cost the players
anything. but each OF the club owners
will lose moro than $4,000 and the ma
tional commission Is denied an addition
al 5000 1t WAS the same last fall when
the Brayes had won three straight. They
could have easily slipped the fourth game
to tho Athletics but they were out to
win and they did,

WINDOW SMASHER JAILED
Pockets Filled with Stones, Harry
Brown on the Rampage.

Harry Brown. who resides at 100 North
street. went suddenly wild early Satur-
day evening and before he could be
stopped had succeeded in breaking three
large plate glass windows in the saloon
OF Peter Smith on Main street, which was
done BY throwing stones. Tho damage
will amount TO 5000 or over. Brown is
said to have been in a high stage OF
intoxieaton and when he was arrested
by the police had his overcoat pockets
filled with stones, as well as those held
in his hands.
All was quiet up to the time of the
first crash, which was followed in quick
succession by two more No one had
noticed Brown particularly before his
escapade but when he was arrested he
is alleged to have had reached that adj
vanced stage of intoxicaton where de-
struction Is the mania. Two of the win
dows broken are the large front windows
facing the north and the other is one of
the side windows, which is about one
third the size OF the others. The holes
are not very large and they have more
the appearance of having been shot
through with a revolver than to have
been broken with stones. Large cracks
extend from them into the unbroken part
Of the windows.

THE YEAR OF GREAT CROPS.

The West will gain momentum from Its
of any poverty of resources that 1t bought
conservativcly last year. when the big
fest yield cf wheat on record brought
the higah-. average prices since the
civil war The East cautioned the West
then to save its profits and reserve the
period OF spending until the financial out
look in New York was clearer. To-day
the farmer Is finishing the harvest OF
crop of wheat measuring nearly bill
lion bushels, Of oats almost n billion and
a half bushels. and OF hay many thou
sands of tons in excess of other years
and has the prospect of three billion
bushels OF corn. His prices, to be sure
arc down. Wheat is nearly % per cent
lower because the European countries
are buying as they consume and not to
accumulate, and because. too, the crops
of other countries are better than they
were The worlds yield is estimated by

this gain Of 4GG,0G0,Do bushels over 1914
Russia figures for an increase OF 1l2,tto =
900 bushels ana E.ngland's colonies for

WRONG ABOUT FRENCH.
Their Conduct in This War Cpsets
Our Cherished Conditions.

Why should It surprise us, Americans,
that the conduct of France In this war
is so magnificent and so modest? Can
II be that America has misunderstood
tho character OF her great neighbor. that
she has stupidity underestimate the tenn
per which for centuries has lowered into
a splendid history Of ideals and achieve
ment?
II would begin to seem likely. Some
Of us have attempted to explain it by
vague talk of the regeneration of de-
cadent people by the purifying fire Of
ileged to see the French on trial know
the hypothesis to be unsound: France Is
unchanged. Our cherished tradition of
the "mercurial Latin of France. his in
stability, excitability, and hystercal light
ness. vanishes into the fog of misapphe-
hehsion out of which It came. We have
TO abandon all that folly In the face OF
| the facts.
| Consider for a moment the truths that
are common knowledge. France has NOV
ed steadily forward through the centuries
driven always by the irresistible pressure
of love for personal liberty, to a final ex-
preston OF that trait in the form of hci
government. We are nearly related tc
France both by sympathy Of principle
and by our common history. Even be-
fore France had established popular gov
eminent its fundamental ideas had beer
laid down In Montesquieus great bool
for the guidance OF our forbears. anc
we know that his injunctions We're follow
ed. And his people felt so deeply in thu
tmatter,-for they hated the Oppressive
principles from which we were striving
to free ourselves.--that they sent us activ
help in the work of establishing our Owl
