When Baker announced his retirement last winter Manager Connie Mack was quoted as saying that the third baseman's contract was so drawn as to permit him to take his libesv whenever he wished, but in a statement made the other day. Mack declared that Baker would not be permitted to rejoin the Philadel- | phia team nor would he allow any oth- CT club to sign him.

 PresIdento Great influence
 under our constitution the presl- dent conducts our foreign affairs un- on congress finds 1t necessary to de. clare war. Upon him is the acute re. sponsibility in such Q crisis. If he were to yield to the cry Of extremists and summon Congress to take ex- treme measures, he would have great influence with congress under such a provocation. Indeed. the impulse to such action has usually been stronger with congress than with the execu- tive.
 Now 1t may be that a series of acts of inhumanlty and violations of the laws of war to our national detri. ment and against our citizens may force us on and lead our people to believed that whatever the cost. no other course is open to us.
 Tho People Must Pay
 But we must bear in mind that if we have a war, it is tho people who must pay with their lives and money the cost of 1t, and therefore they should not be hurried into the sacri- flee until 1t is clear that they wish 1t and know what they are doing when they wish it.
 "A demand for war that cannot sur vive the passion of the first days of public indignation and will not en- dure the test of delay and delibera- ton by all the people is not one that should be yielded to-
 Stand By the President
 Before party before ourselves, We are for our country. That is what he is working for. Shall we not stand by him in it? He will not surrender our country's right. It may be necessary that for a hundred lives and the meth cd of their taking we should lose thou sands and hundreds of thousands Of lives. The national honor and inter- ests may ultimately demand 1t, but time for serious thought and clearly weighing the consequences will not prejudice the justice of our cause or the opportunity to yindicate 1t, and this the president may be counted on to secure.
 "It is the peoples cause. not his alone and he does well. when quick action is of no critical importance, to allay excitement and to await the re- gard and studied action of the peo- ple's representative"

 NEW YORK. May 12.- Theodore Roosevelt will say in an article en- titled Murder on the High Seas" to be published in the Juneau Metropoli. tan:
 "The German submarines have es- abolished no effective blockade of the British and French coast lines. They have endeayored to prevent the ac- cess of French. British and neutral ships to Britain and France by at- tacks upon them which defy every principle or international law as laid down in innumerabie existing treaties including The Hague conventions. Al great many of these attacks have rep resented pure piracy. and not few of them have been accompanied by murder on an extended scale. In the case of the Lusitania the scale was so vastthat the murder became whole l safe.
 A number of American ships had already been torpedoed in similar fashion In one case the lives lost included those not only of the Ameri- l can captain. but Of his wife and little ! daughter.

kilograms, letters and flowers came
to Herbert from Kittys friends in
-- Dick must have gotten
my telegram and told them the sad
news.
But not one word to me from him.
About nine o'clock the expressman
brought wonderful blanket of roses
from Jim and Harry, and Eliene sent
enough lilies and roses to make the
room bower.
Herbert looked at the flowers with
smoldering antipathy and seemed to
resent them more and more. Think
how much good all this money would
do my poor people," he said at last
as he had hard work to find place
for a basket of pink carnations and
lilies of the valley.
And do you know, little book, as
he said that realized where he had
lacked Kitty's eyes.
His first thought was for his poor,
who constituted his business. He
forgot for the instant how Kitty loved
flowers and how all these dear peo-
pie had remembered her. He only
saw in the blossoms sympathy
which the givers could express no
other way, but a waste of money that
might have been expended on the iV-
ing.
This idea is all right in theory but,
little book, 1 was glad that her in
animate form would be laid to rest
among the bloom that meant so
much to her.
1t seemed to me that Herbert might
have forgotten his poor for little
while. He was going to have such a
long time to remember them in and
such a short time to think of Kitty.
l, of course, know he loved Kitty,
but l found that even he was one

with the married man. Perhaps it is
all right that he should have other
and greater interests than in his wife,
but here's the trouble: A man al
Germs shall be the only interest of
his wife. He is apt to be jealous of
any occupation that shall engross a
woman's mind. He does not want
his wife to be all mother even after
children have come to them.
Most men would deny this if you
accused them of it but am sure if
1 could ask of hundred women pick
ed out at random at least 95 would
say that they came second to some
other interest in their husbands lives.
l have almost come to the conclu-
sion, little book, that I'll become in
terested in something outside my
home and family.
Wouldn't it be an ideal way to live
if two people had perfect respect, per
feet confidence, perfect faith in each
other and would allow each to go his
separate way with the sure knowl-
edge that love and trust was always
there.
The great trouble with it all is that
each not only wants to assert his
own individuality but he also wants
to subject the others individuality to
it. Some day this will probably be
adjusted, little book. Some day we
will all understand, but until that
time comes things will be consider
ably mixed and to unmix them looks
to be as hard as to unscramble eggs.
We can only grope for the light as
we see it in the far distance.

 mans course will not be influenced by the American note.
 Although the note demands inviola- bility of American citizens, the news paper adds it is to be hoped this demand will not be extended to them if they are on board English ships. If, as reported, tho Lusitania's passengers begged the captain to hoist the American flag, Wash ington cannot wonder If this flag is not respected
 The Hamburger Nachrchten says that nobody can demand that German war sEips expose themselves to destruction through consideration for neutrals.
 American merchantmen, the Nach- richten continues, retain their right to sail In the specified waters or to avoid them. If Washington assumes that the admiralty's declaration will not be ex- ecuted unsparingly it fundamentally de- ceives itself
 "The threatening sentences in the American note are quite unimpressive. After delivering weapons to our enemies and making no protest against Great Biitain's insolence. the United States shows itself devoid of any good will what ever toward us. Politely turned expres- sions do not counterbaance too evident partisanshp for our enemies"
 The Frankfurter Zeitung says:
 Sentences Impressive
 Emphasis is laid on friendly intentions The repeated recital of intentions to dc away with difficulties permit of the hope that Washington desires to preserve good relations with Germany and will give due weight to the German standpoint after renewed explanations.
 "The note assumes a too formal and juristic standpoint regarding German jus tifcstion in eventually destroying neutra ships and follows the line of argument of the Englinsh manner of reasoning which unfortunately has become second nature. The American government give' to. little weight to the difficult confiic in which Germany finds itself. whereaI no vital interest of the United States i' threatened The way out of the diff culty is opened by the united American protest against British misuse of flags As for the rest Germany must maintain It's stand.
