as her figure may thus be embodied in
her garment Regimental colors are
a deal more exclusive however, and
express apreferencc not quite so broad
and promiscuous. Worn with white
skirts these gay striped sweater coats
are particularly stunning and there
also are accompanying accoutrements
OF hats and parasols striped to match.
The expression: ooh, she is that
stripe" hereby gathers new meaning
and the regimcntal sweater offers, as
well as warmth and adornment, de
lightful modern method of wearing
your heart on your sleeve by wearing
instead HIS stripes.
Verify, no regiment would fail to
present arms to such color bearers.

Recently some places when men are being examined
for their citizenship papers government attorneys have
got the habit of asking applicants if they would fight
against their native lands i'm the event that such native
lands entered into war with the United States 1t really
looks as if this question is rather brutal and unnecessary
You cannot take away mans love for his native land no
matter how sterling citizen of his adopted country ne
wishes to be- When that question is asked one can under
stand the applicant for citizenship papers turning over
I'm his mind the flag that he raised to love the hills and
Wales of his motheraud the school where he educated
the brothers and the father against whom he is asked to
swear he would fight Why the chances are that if the
United States went to war tomorrow with some European
nation this great nation would hardly ask men to fight
against their own flesh and blood and even if such
course were necessary nothing gained by anticipating 50
fIghtful tragedy sounds too much like wife asking
that a mother be thrown out of the house.
Let it be supposed that tits mans duty to fight for
his adopted country against the country of his nativity
and vet what is gained by asking man if he would do
so before there is the slightest danger of such event
occurring? Such question probably very often causes
perjury and cannot do any good man will fight for his
adopted country against his native country on he will not
but it is certain that the asking of such question will not
determine him one way on the other

The plank in the Democratic platform asking for the
spending of the territorial funds for the establishment of

We here know that there district not thousand miles
from Seward where over hundred children are left with
out schools entirely Next spring the territory is said
will have something like half million dollars at its dis
posa and mo better way could be found for spending it,

HSZA, AUSTRIAN,
UNTIL MEN Think
u. S. Intervention Useful
When Belligerents Are
Willing to Talk Seriously
declares nation IS
WAGINC DEFENSIVE WAR
BY CARL W. AcKERMAN


BUDAPEST, Via Amsterdam, May
31-"So long as the responsible states
men of England and France think as
they think, there is no chance Of
peace" declared Count Tisza, Hun
garian prime minister. and strong
man" of Austria-Hungary, in an in
terview with the United Press today.
Count Tisza was referring to the re-
cent belligerent utterances of Sir Ed
ward Grey and President Poincare.
THE Intervention of the United
States will be useful only when both
sets of belligerents are prepared to
talk peace seriously" he added. Il
doubt If that time has arrived.
THE German Chancellor's recent
statements are proof of the Central
Powers readiness to end the war.
Peace. however, depends on whether
the leaders of the other camps are
ready to tell the people the truth and
take the responsibilities.
"It isn't our task to talk peace. We
are fighting a defensive war and are
compelled to continue for the purpose
OF obtaining necessary guarantees OF
future security. When the war began
all the newspapers and the less re-
sponsible persons on the side Of the
Allies spoke Of annihilating us and
distributing our lands. We never talk
ed about what we we're going to do
nor had we either the desire or any
ldea Of Remembering other nations
Therefore. II is easy for us to make
peace at any time"
Count Tia was asked 70 comment
on the practicahility Of President
Wilson's suggestion OF a world con-
ference at the close Of this war with
the object of preventing future war
"That question is more easily put
than answered" he replied. II hope
peace can be made lasting. II is the
sacred duty Of every one working Tor
a future peace TO have in mind guar
antees Of permanency or at least OF
long duration.
This war is the greatest calamity
TO the human race and 10 human in.
dustry. II is a thousaud-fold worse
than the Napoleonic wars II is
horrible!"

a understanding game. Brandywine
won. to 2 scoring three runs in the
nineteenth inning.
II was the greatest baseball game
ever played in Wilmington. The con-
test took place on the Twenty-ninth
and Market streets grounds. II was
a postponed game that the clubs
agreed to play yesterday TO avoid play
ing a double header later in the sea-
son. and as II turned out more than
two games were played in the one.
Both Crouch and Ennis. who was
I'm the box for Eastlake. went the en-
tire nineteen innings. big Bill
never looked better and seemed Ia
improve as the game progressed
Eastlake scored one run in the third
and one in the sixth inning then fol-
thirteen innings Crouch sent them
back without a run. bill" had all
kinds Of stuff and almost perfect con
troll, giving only two passes in the
nineteen innings.
Eastlake made ten hits but they
we're well scattered. Austin. who is
thought by many 10 be the best anna
eur catcher in the city, caught Bill
and was a great help to the big twirl'
Pr on more than ono occasion. The
,act that Crouch averaged nearly two
str'ke-outs TO the inning for nineteer
innings. gives a fair idea Of the class
of ball he pitched.
