TA0RPE'S LAST STAND
Indian Must Improve in Batting to
Remain in Major
League.

NEW YORK, March 15.-Jim Thorpe.
the Sac and Fox Indian. Olympic prize
winner and one of the greatest foot
ball players that ever donned gridiron
armor. is making his last stand on the
major league base ball diamond. With
out question one of the greatest ath-
letes ever developed in America or in
any other portion of the world. Thorpe
has made a name for himself in track
and field sports. lacrosse. foot ball and
college base ball. 1t was not until he
undertook to play the latter game in
the big leagues that he found a sport
wherein he failed to shine with his
accustomed brilliancy.
Fresh from his Olympic triumphs at
Stockholm and the subsequent sensa-
tional stripping away of these honors
by the Amateur Athletic Union the
charge that he was professional.
Thorps %o,S vas signed to play with 18th the
Manager John J. McGraw. From the
very beginning the redskin athlete ran
like deer in the outf1eld and on the
bases. fielded well. but was absolutely
helpless before the curved pitching of
the big league box stars.
Can Hit Straight Balls.
Given a straight ball across the heart
of the plate, Thorpe. with his power
full arms and shoulders, could and did
lift the ball over the center ielder's
head with great regularity. The trou-
BILE was that the pitcher never made
such a mistake but once. Thereafter
Thorpe got nothing but curved pitch
ing and the Indian swung on the
sants in vain.
The Indian drifted from the major
league to the minors. and even there
his help1essness at the plate caused
him to be cast aside for less sensa-
tional player who could bat in pinches.
Through it all McGraw held firm to
his belief that eventually Thorpe
would master the art of hitting a
curved delivery. This spring McGraw
decided to give him another chance
with the Giants at the training camp at
Marlin. Tex.
There the red man was persuaded to
try batting left hand when he went to,
the plate and at once a decided i'm
provement was noticed in his hitting.

the assumption on their part being
that he is the only formidable candi-
date the republicans could name

own view of the situation makes me
think of an incident that happened
down in my section of the Old Domin-

AN old colored man went to the
county court house and secured a IL
cense to marry one Liza Brown A
little later he went back to the clerks
Office and told that official that he had
made mistake in the name; that it
was Mandy Brown, a sister of Liza,
whom he wanted to wed. The clerk
told him that he could not change the
name. but would have to issue him
new license, and that the said docu-
ment would cost him an additional dol
lar. Old Sam seemed perplexed at this
unwelcome piece Of news, and, scratch
ing his head remarked:
Mistah, you jes hold dis papah fo'

WELCOME REPORTER.

Davenport Democrat: Men who have
made large successes in business, and
in the political field, have found
large factor of that success to have
been the intelligent help they have
had from newspaper men. They have
been men who knew the value OF news
to the reporter, and who have earned
the newspaper mans good will by
Tipping him Off to news items when
ever they came under their observa-
ton. They have learned, too, that the
best way to gain the cooperation Oh
the newspaper man is by having con-
fdence in him, and many a man in
public and business life has shared
his confidence with newspaper men
freely without ever having it abused.
This fact is called to attention by a
Chicago dispatch to the effect that IN
an address on Business Men and
Newspaper Reporters" Warren B.
Bullock of Milwaukee told the cOnven-
ton of the National Lumber Manu-
facturers' association that American
merchants have lost great opportuni-
ties TO advance business interests be-
l. cause of failure to appreciate the pride
Of newspaper reporters in their pro-
fession. He asked the lumbermen par
! ticularly to help themselves by help
ing the reporters to get news.
"As an average newspaper man,
said Mr.. Bullock, Il want to tell you
that the poorest newspaper reporter
feels that when he goes to interview
/ a business man he is the official rep
resentative of the great American pub
! lie. which is entitled to know the news
of the world BY turning away, often
with discourtesy, the newspaper re-
porter who seeks news of the business
world, the business men of the coun'
try have lost great opportunities, ant
instead of making friends, they have
often made enemies.
There are two ways in which thl!
condition is being remedied. One Il
by a more liberal attitude Of the bus
mess man toward the reporter, thu
other is by advertising. Treat the re
porter as a co-wOrker. not as an of
/ fensive intruder. The newspaper want:
news. If you have news. give it out
and give it out right You will never
get the worst of it if you follow this
/ policy"
Mr.. Bullock has been newspaper
man who has had large dealings witt
business men He speaks by the card

stress upon two importance factors
genuineness and serenity. The for
mer implies that mixture of spontan-
city and intelligence which makes Tor
individuality and which marks the ro-
bust. upright nature. 1t goes with
good sense and self-respect. To be
genuine is in effect self-liberation.
And in natural sequence genuineness
will evoke serenity--that poise Of mind
and soul so needful in the turmoil OF
our age Serenity should not imply
lackness or inaction. Rather II may
accompany an alert interest in affairs
that broad curiosity and sympathy
with all things human which diStin-
guishes mans outlook from that OF
brute creation. Furthermore, we are
not the first of human beings. Ours
is the heritage of countless genera
lions in which the humanizing pro-
cess has been going steadily on. How
stupid. then, he who would live as II
our life in the world had just begun,
shutting his eyes to the great store
of everything which the ages have
provided to give enlightenment ana
variety to life The world would De-
come truly humane if it would open
its ears 10 the clear voices that ring
in those writings upon life and affairs
which mankind has chosen TO keep
Thus are we admonished to heed the
lesson of the past.
President Wilson's little volume is
a challenge to the best that is IN us.
One cannot read these pages without
experiencing a stirring of the spirit
and an impetus toward a larger and
fuller life.
