ELBERFELD'S LOOKOUTS
TRIMMED BY YANKS

Chattanooga, Tenn, March 2s.-Wild
BIZ Donovan finally gave battle to his
old friend Kid Elberfeld here today, and
the Yankees gained another victory in
their conquest of the South by defeating
the Lookouts six to nothing.
In the words of Harry Sparrow, the
contest was an artistic success, but a
financial fiver. 1t was lacking in those
elements of nourishment that Sparrow
looks for at the front gate. The day was
raw and cold, and less than 200 fans saw
the locals take the count from the big
leaguers.

this praise from the Secretary:

appear to have been that our destinies
were in the hands of a man patient.

wise and just. who saw past all the
minor annoyances and through all the
cross-currents of feeling, who resisted
every impulse toward impetuous judg-
mont and thereby accomplished these
great things: First, that he saved the
lives of countless Americans who by
any other course would have been de-
voted to death in battle; second, that
he preserved tho civilization of the
twentieth century against the last
great assault which would have been
made had our country too been swept
into the general catastrophe: third,
that he vindicated and preserved un-
impaired the rights of neutrals and re-
strained the zeal Of belligerents from
sacrificing international law to the
suppised necessities Of their military
plans, and. fourth, that he saved up the
moral energies Of a great and free peo-
pie to place them at the disposal of
mankind when they rested from their
work of destruction and began to re-
consider the possibilities OF national
life.
His has been the ono sane and Sc
rene spirit which will redeem this age.
and when the election comes 1t will be
found that the people of America.
whatever their sympathies in the Eu-
ropean struggle. realize that the one
indispensable exponent of the mind,
