John Barleycorn Knocks Out Baseball

side are some interesting figures show
ing the ravages by alcohol among the
star players of big baseball leagues.
These figures have been gathered by H.
S. Fullerton. Mr.. Fullerton purposely
eliminated the hard drinkers from his ex-
perments; he confined himself to the
"bottle of beer" man who thinks that
what he takes cannot possibly hurt him.
He keeps tab of the records and bat
ting averages of thirty-two moderate
drinkers and twenty-four players who
did not drink After eleven years only
two of the original thirty-two drinking
players are on the diamond, while eight
of the twenty four non drinkers are still
playing. Furthermore only five of the
drinkers are prosperous as opposed to
fourteen of the non-drinkers. Six OF
the beer contingent are down and out,
eight are dead and one is missing-but
only three of the non-drinkers are Ell
their dead or ruined. The non-drinkers
have won more games and pitched more
games, stolen more bases and kept up
better batting average, although at the
beginning of the eleven years the drink
ers surpassed them. The following Ia

Fullerton:

BABY WEEK PLANNED
FOR EARLY MARCH
More Than 400 Communities Represent
ing Every State in the Union are
Laying Plans for Participating.

The year 1916 is baby year. The facts
about American babies, the needs of
American babies, and Americas respon-
sibiity TO her babies will this year be
known throughout the country.
More than 400 communities represent
ing every state in the union are already
laying plans for baby week, according to
the Chldren's bureau Of the United
States department OF labor, in order that
during those seven days the needs of the
babies may be so presented that all the
parents in those communities will learn
a little better how to care for their
babies, and all the citizens viii realize
that they have a special obligation to
safeguard the conditions surrounding ba-
bies. And it is confidently believed by
those who are interested in this nation
wide baby week that the remainder of
the year will be marked by strengthen
ing OF all community activities for saving
babies lives and giving thc1: better
chance to grow to a healthy maturity.
The baby week idea originated in
Chicago not quite two years ago. Then
New York had a baby week, and Pitts
burg, and other cities Such practical
benefit has in each case resulted that the
general federation of women's clubs has
to promote this nationwide
observance. State health officials and
organizations interested in pub
lie health and child welfare have taken
up the plan and in various ways are Civ

MANHATTAN ISLAND.
" Was Once Spot Apart From the
Island of Manhattan.

Island OF Manhattan.
The Magazine of American History
has called attention to distinction in
New York nomenclature that, despite
the authority it quotes, every Man
hattanese' does not know. The maya
zine cites the following footnote to
1.-THE Spy" by James Fenimore Cooper
and then comments on it:
Every Manhattanese knows the diff
ference between Manhattan Island and
the Island of Manhattan. The first is
applied to small district in the vicin-
ity of Corlears Hook, while the last
embraces the whole island or the city
and county of New York as it is term
ed in the laws.
''In other words, the latter is the
present borough of Manhattan. Man
haitian Island was knoll along the old
water front of the East river about an
acre In extent surrounded by creeks
and salt marsh and made an island by
the tide. Near it was Henry Eckford's
shipyard. an ancient landmark. 1t
may be identified on General Egbert I.
Viele's map of the water courses.
In the reticulation of the present
streets 1t lay between Rivington and
Houston. Sheriff and Cannon streets.
Columbia and Stanton streets intersect
on what was about the center of the
island. Just north of it was one of the
tidal mouths of a stream that arose
near First avenue on Sixth street,
flowed through Tompkins square and
reached the river between Manhattan
Island and Burnt Mill or Branda Mu-
nah Point, about Third and Lewis
streets"

Lamar Vacancy on Bench
May Lead to Some
Changes
SECRETARY LANE
MAY GET PLACE
Garrison and Lehman Are
Also Being Consid-
cred

Washington, Jan. 4.--Prompt actor

successor to the late Associate justice
Joseph Rucker Lamar of the Unitet
States supreme court, who died Sunday
| is expected in administration circles
The new appointee unquestionably VIII
be Democrat avoiding change IN tho
party lineup on the bench.
Many possibilities for the vacancy are
being discussed. Prominent in the Cos
sip are Secretary Lane, department OF
the interior; Frederick w. Lehman OF
st. Louis, former solicitor general OF
the department of justice; Secretary OF
War Garrison, Secretary of Agriculture
Houston, Counsellor Folk of the inter
state commerce commission, and John w.
Davis, present solicitor general.
1t will be President Wilson's second
appointment to the highest court. As
sociate Justice McReynolds was the
first, succeeding the late Justice Horace
II. Lurton, who was named by President
Taft
That Mr.. Taft would not be considered
for appointment was stated authorlta-
lively.
The reported desire of the president
for certain changes in his cabinet EN-
phasized the prospects of Secretary
Lane. He is said to have an ambition
for judicial honors and is regarded by
the president as of unusual ability. Sec
rotary Garrison formerly served in New
Jerseys supreme court. BY appointing
Secretary Houston, it was pointed out,
the rumored inclination to shift Houston
and promote Assistant Secretary Carl
Vrooman could be achieved.
The president is known to think high
" of Frederick w. Lehman, who has
served many years at the bar and was
Justice Lamar's colleague, by Mr.. VIII
sons appointment, in the A. B. c. Next
can peace conference at Niagara Falls.
Justice Lamar's body will be taken,
probably to-day, to his old home at
Augusta, Ga. President Wilson yester
day sent message of coincidence to the
family.
The interest Of politicians eenters par
on Secretary Lane, For some
time considerable element in the Demo
ratio party has been urging Mr.. Lane
for national chairman. 1t is not be-
ieved that President Wilson viii do
much campaigning if renominated and
Mr.. Lane is regarded as campaigner of
personality and ability. As national
hartman he would occupy position
hat would enable him to carry the bur
len of the oratorical battle.
The secretary has not looked with
ayor on the scheme, however. His
lealth is not of the best, and being
nan of limited means, a life place on
he supreme bench looks more alluring
han the task Of carrying the Democrat
c flag through a campaign.
