From the London Cnronlcle.
Our adoption of the chevron on the
sleeve of the soldier to honor his wounds.
as is the custom in the French army,
recalls a story that recently appeared in
one of the trench journals of our brave
allies. Marius was called up before his
captain, who after congratulating him on
his courage and behavior, announced that
it had been decided to raise him grade,
and that he was to be sent to the train
ing school for N. c. Os. A week later
he returned with a note for his captain
from the commander of the N. O.'s
school to this effect, that, owing to the
low level of his intelligence, it was not
considered possible to turn him into a
good N. c. o.
Marus said nothing at the time. but
few days later, in addition to the
badge denoting service at the front, he
also sported the badge showing war
wounds. On it being pointed out to him
that he had not the right to this decor
alton, as he had never been wounded
Marius cried, What do you mean? Not
wounded Are the wounds received to
my self-esteem then not to count?"

Chicago in Second Place

Chicago, September 20.-Chicago went
into second place by defeating Philadel-
phia to 7, while Boston won from De.
troit. Chicago is one and one-half games
behind the leaders.
The locals punched hits off Johnson in
the first inning for three runs and con-
tinued the bombardment off Seibold, but
they could do nothing with Parham
delivery.
Philadelphia hit Russell hard but Dan

AGREES WITH MORAN

l agree with Moran because I have
noticed no difference in the batting of
any team and I really think a few teams
have substituted Federal leaguers who
have weakened the batting strength.
There are exceptions, of course, such as
Chase, Konetchy, Fischer and Mann, who
are dangerous at any time, but / don't
find the teams any harder than a year
ago.
