PRESENT CENSORSHIP
GREATEST EVER KNOWN
IN HISTORY OF AMERICA

While ii is to be presumed that the
war department is aware where Gen.
'efSf Eershing's Headquarters are now
located, his whereabouts is at least
as great a mystery to the public as
Villas. A censorship has been
maintained with such cast-iron rig
idity as to completely throw into the
shade the European efforts in that
direction that have aroused indig-
nation in the heart of the worlds
journalists.
The last bit of information about
the expeditionary force came from a
Mexican source and was to the eff
feet that the Americans were aban-
doning Numiquipa and moving
northwards-ipresumably to Colona
Dublan. The latter place is very lit
tie over two hundred miles from Ell
Paso, from which depot there can be
little doubt that supplies are being
forwarded by a well-guarded success
sion of motor trucks.
The eternally rerudescing' Villa
must assuredly be rated as the hero
of the international stage. An at
tack on the American forces just at
this crisis would tend to disorgan-
ize the Portsmouth convention to the
most alarming extent AS it is ap-
parently quite out of the question
that Villa could have collected
force capable of successfully attack
ing Pershing's troops, which at last
accounts numbered over twelve
thousand men, this daredevil Mexi
can must be making his attempt with
the single-hearted object of making
things uncomfortable both for Presi-
dent Wilson and Carranza.
If he succeeds m killing even
hundred American soldiers both the
International and political situations
will take on an entirely new aspect
and one that will hardly be well
coined by either of the two princi-
pals at Portsmouth.-Palm Beach
Post.

F. w. Perry, of Fort Myers, who
will represent Lee county in the next
Legislature, is receiving considerable
encouragement in his ambition to be
chosen speaker of the House. Mr..
Perry has not prematurely pushed his
candidacy, but his friends expect him
to be there with the bacon when
the votes are counted. He is an able
bushes man, is well qualified for the
Speakership, and South Florida should
stand behind his candidacy.

Poor old Cats just can't tell the
same story twice the same way. In
telling about his killing Niger"
as he expressed it, back in Alabama,
he said in Jacksonville that he was
acquitted on the testimony of nine
teen other ringers" In Tampa he
gave the number as ten-evidently
having killed off nine of them be-
tween Jacksonville and Tampa.

The Arcadia News very properly
says that the only question to be
decided is which of the two candi-
dates-Catts or Knott received a
majority of the first and second
choice votes. Whoever is finally
shown to have this majority ought
to get every Democratic vote. 1t is
regrettable that MIR. Cats will not
wait to get at the truth of the situa-
ton, as it seems any high-minded
honorable man would do.

have cost us many times sixty mil
lions of dollars. I" We were about to
throw fit, but the News kindly ey-
planned in the next sentence that the

The Trilby News corrects us in re-
gard to st Cloud being the only town
In the State that has no negro resi-
dents, and cites Zephyrhills as an
other lily white community. BY the
way, that's another town composed
exclusively of northerners, if we're
not mistaken. Instances multiply
to prove that our northern friends
do not seem to love and cherish the
colored friend and brother, or at
least do not demonstrate their affec-
ton when opportunity offers.

The Republicans and Socialists
who accused us of mis-stating the
amount Cats claims Cardinal Glib
bons contributed to Knott's fund
were non-plussed when that gentle
man spilled the beans" at Tampa
by naming sum four times as large
as that he stated here. But be of
good cheer, brethren; Cats compli-
ments us some more He simply
sized the Tampa people up as being
four times as gullible as those Of

RECORD NUMBER Of
ASSISTS IN EIGHTIES
OutfielderS Did Great Work
in Early Days of Ma
tional PaStime
VAN HOLTREN'S FAME
LIVES FOREVER

During the season Of 1898 George
Van Haltren of the New York Giants
in a game against the Washington
club. was playing centre field. ICY"
Swain, who was pitching for the Sem
ators, while at bat, happened TO make
what looked a safe drive TO centre.
Nine times out of ten it would have
gone safe, but Van" made a mad
dash and gathered it in on the second
bound and without stopping threw TO
first, the ball beating the slow-foot-
ed Swain by a good six feet, and ICY"
was sprinting his best all the time. OF
course Van" didn't perform this
stunt right along.
Statistics show that the outfelders
back in the eighties and nineties had
the shade on the present-day outfield-
ers in making assists. The best rec
ord in number of assists made in one
season in the majors in recent years,
or since 1900, was stacked up by
Harry Niles when with the St. Louis
Cardinals in 1906. Harry nailed thir-
ty-nine men from the outfeld, get
ting them at different bases.
Mike Mitchell, while playing with
the Cincinnati team. equalled the
mark set by Niles, heading off thirty
nine men by his power to shoot ball
from the further corner of outfield
with sufficient accuracy and speed to
get his man. "Ty" Cobb, Joe Birm-
ingham, Iris Speaker, Joe Jackson
and Milan OF Washington all have
made especially good records in this
direction, and lead their respective
teams in throwing out base runners
from the remote corners Of the outer
garden. In his day. Fielder JONES
was a past master in pegging the ball
from the outfeld and nipped many
runners.
In the National League since 1900,
Murray of the Giants has the most
consistent record Of all old league
loutfielders in making assists, he lead
ing the league in four different sea
sons. Ellis. who used to be with the
lCards. was good at making Ions
throws and had an average of 25 pei
season. Titus, Bates. Cravath and
Snodgrass have good marks for ac
curate throwing from the outfield.
But the old boys baik in the hal
cyon days Of the eighties made som'
astonishing records in throwing on
base runners from afar off. JIMMY
Fogarty. of the Phillies. averaged ar
assist from the outfield every third
game he played in. Sam Thompson
Of the old Detroit and Phillies was q
mighty thrower in his day

Official Figures Show How
the Big Frenchman
Excelled
WILL RETIRE FROM
GAME THIS YEAR

Up in Philadelphia there is one OF
the greatest ornaments Of the ma
tional game. And he plans to retire
with the final contest Of the 1916
campaign.
Larry Lajoie, the wonderful Woon-
socket Frenchman who rose from the
front seat of a hack to become the
champion batsman Of the big leagues
for several years. is the grand old
man who will hang up his uniform
next October, never again to be seen
in action in a big league battle.
Larry is slowing. No more do his
feet respond to his mental urging. No
more can he move across the inheld
and intercept the flying globule, eX-
citing thousands Of fans who admire
a thing Of beauty. No more can he
be depended upon to propel thai
same globule far into the void.
In a word. Larry is about done as
a major Lacquer. And he refuses to
take up the slavery Of the big league
star sliding into the minors.
But Lajoie has established a mar
velous record during his stay in thG
big show. For eleven years his bat
ting average has been above .S46. Nc
other batsman in the history of base
ball can point 10 such a record
Therefore when Larry puts those

bert has decided to lift the ban on Sun
day baseball within the city limits.
Before announcing his decision he
mayor studied a number of legal deci--
ions. the old blue laws Of l704 and local
conditions as well He invited opinions
in the matter and says that there were
few against and hundreds in favor Of
the movement.
If baseball games are played on Sun
day at the Circus Maximus remote from
built up sections Of the city, the noise
of fans cheering and shouting could not
be construed, in the mayors opinion, as
a nuisance.

"A change OF scenery often works
wonders for ball player. Take the
case Of Bob shawkey, OF the Yankees
When he was with the Athletics he
never was any great mystery to the
Tigers but this season he has pitched
10 innings In four different games
against our club and gone the route
without allowing a run.
"Shawkey has been great help to
Bill Donovan IN the defensive way.
On six different occasions he has
been thrown into the contest when
games went overtime and in the IL
innings he pitched at the finish OF
such games. only four runs have been
scored off him.
Maybe II is because he's getting
his chance in New York. He was a
second string man most OF the time
that he was in Philadelphia"

BY "AL.r

Penlyn seems 10 realize that they
were in luck on Saturday because
the rain saved them from one of the
worst drubbings they ever received.

ager Stevens announced the game
Off.
Port Penn wants a game with Mid
dletown. II appears TO us that it is
all the fisherman can do. to find hats
large enough to it, them. Those boys
sure have an exalted opinion Of them
selves.
The fans we're certainly sorry that
the game had. to be called off. They
were prepared 10 witness the great
est game ever played at Academy
Park.
Wen hand 1t to you, Gallagher
that team Of yours is the best one
that Manager Stevens has ever run
up against. It's a pleasure TO play
such a team.
Port Penn butts in! Now they are
sore because Park beat them 4-S. and
Odessa beat Park 1872. And the Park
team was positively the same
against both teams in all repects ex-
cept they had a better twirler against
Odessa.
Odessa has refused to play Port
Penn because taking on such easy
teams would spoil there reputation
We would Ike 10 arrange a game
with Port Penn but Manager Stevens
realizes that the game would be q
walkover for US, and that the fans
wouldn't waste good money to see
the fishermen make a dozen errors.
