and invigorator of the female organism.

WILSON HOLDS CONFERENCE.
President Discusses Plans for Demo-
cratic Convention.

President Discusses P!anS TOT Demo-
cratic Convention.
Washington, June 2.-Plans for the
Democratic convention at st. Louis
and the ensuing campaign were dis
cussed on Wednesday by President
Wilson with Representative Doremus
of Michigan, chairman Of the Demo
cratic congressional committee; Nor
man Hapgood, an organizer of the
Wilson Nonpartisan league, and Sen
ator Taggart of Indiana. Between now
and the convention time the president
is expected to devote much attention
to politics.
Selection Of permanent convention
chairman was discussed. Speaker
Champ Clark was the first choice OF
the president, but it now seems that
Mr.. Clark may not go to 81. Louis.
Senator James of Kentucky and Sena-
tor Kern of Indiana are among those
suggested for the place in case the
speaker finally declines the honor.
While friends of Vice-President Mar
shall believe there is no doubt that ne
will be renominated, they are not urg-
ing the president to take a stand on
the question because there are other
candidates, notably Governor Major.
The plan of the convention man.
ayers is to have Alabama give way to
New Jersey when the roll is called for
the nomination of presidential candi-
dates so that John w. Wescott, who
has been selected by President VIII
son to nominate him, may make MS
speech Immediately. A motion to close
nominations then would be in order.

Connie Maok's Trlok on Cap Anson and
the Foul Strike Rule.
There may have been better catchers
than Connie Mack, but none any fox
Ter. Connie was with the Pirates back
In 1893, when he played u little trick
on Cap Anson that won game for
Pittsburgh.
Ad Gumbert was pitching for the
Pirates and got himself into a hole
Chicago filed the bases In a hurry, and
only one man was out Cap Anson
came to bat.
In those days Cap was a terror to
pitchers. The situation was serious
Cap had way of taking two strikes
and then lighting on the third one for
fare-yewell.
And so it was here. Gumbert foated
two across. and Cap didn't blink an
eye.
Suddenly Connie Mack stepped aside.
while Gumbert held the BALL and took
off his mask. He wiped his brow
tossed his glove aside and started re-
moving his chest protector
Arson was amazed. He looked
around and glanced with wide open
eyes at Mack What's the matter

straight across. Mack reached out his
chest protector and blocked the ball
Then he grabbed It as it rolled away
touched the plate, forcing the man who
was on third, and then. throwing to
first, doubled Arson. The Cap was so
surprised he didn't even try to run.
Behind every change In rules lies
pretty little romance OF one kind or an
other. According to George Moreland
1t was McGraw and Thomas who
forced the foul strike rule
In the early nineties those two men
were so adept In knocking fouls until
they got one they could hit that they
delayed the game indefinitely. 1t was
nothing extraordinary for them to
crack out twenty or SO fouls in a single
time at bat
Like the expert cricket batter, they
could tick the ball at viii, just meet
ing It. They worried pitchers so that
finally, In desperation they would lay
one across, waist high, and they'd
crown it.-Cinclnnati Enquirer

HELD FOR SELLING JOBS

Wilkesbafre, Pa, Oct. 20. Rich
ard Jones, formerly a mine foreman
at Exeter, who was arrested and
charged with selling jobs 10 mine
workers and whose case was
squashed by order of the court, will
have to face jury during the No
vember term of criminal court.
Jones was indicted on evidence
furnished by Miss Emily johnson,
settlement worker, who produced
witnesses who swore they had paid
for jobs. The case was listed for
trial when attorneys for Jones asked
that the indictment be squashed on
the ground that there was nothing
under the law to make the foreman
liable Judge Strauss opened the
way for all mine bosses to sell jobs
without fear of the law
Realizing the danger, District
Attorney Slattery appealed the case
to the Supreme Court, which has
overruled the lower courts and or
ders Jones to stand trial on the orig
inal indictment.

tion on immigration restriction. Dur.
ing the last year the acid lest of eX.
perience has verified the claim of trade
unions that American institutions can.
not assimilate nor American living
standards resist the flood tides OF in.
duced immigration that has been the
policy of the captains of industry. In
formation and reports received by the
officers OF the American Federation of
Labor clearly demonstrate the fact
that a labor famine exists only
where employers still demand long
hours at low wages and where they
ignore the living standards set by the
workers.
Another element among employers
who talk OF the scarcity of labor do so
to entice a sufficient number of idle
workers to their factory gates as a
menace to those employed and who are
liable to demand better conditions.
These employers oppose restriction of
immigration because restriction win
defeat their policy of having two or
more men for every job.
Another tendency is the growing op
position to labor iniunctions, which
class labor power as property. The
congress of the United States has
voiced this opposition in amendments
TO the antitrust laws Judicial inter,
pretations of the term property" in
the fourteenth amendment to the fed
eral constitution are losing their force
What was originally intended to end
slavery has been used to thwart the
enactment of social legislation. but
courts have failed to check the<swell-
ing tide of democracy.
The trade union movement is con
scious of the part it has played in the
tendencies above referred to- and this
consciousness win be an inspiration to
greater effort during the coming year.
