CLANCY MOVES UP
Pioneers Third Baseman to Get Try. out With Danny Murphy's New Ha- ven Team in the Eastern League.

William Clancy is the latest product of local baseball diamonds, to make an attempt to become q big leaguer,
 having signed contract to play with Danny Murphy's Murlins in the East ern league the coming season. A member of the Polis and Pioneers teams for several years, Clancy has improved wonderfully season after season. and the time seems to have arrived when he is ready for league picking. A glance of box scores in games Clancy participates in, will show the worth of the boy. Not a player whose work is free from er- TOTS, because like other players who tries, misplays are numerous. On the paths and with the willow, Clancy is a wonder and should he succeed in making good, and his friends are con- 1ident that he will, the pitchers and catchers in the league will have plen- ty of opportunity of finding this out.

CHAPTER XIV.
The Battle.

Soundlessly, in the dark hour after
midnight, the great war-bow of the In.
dian wns strung. But the camp of the
Americans slept A light rain fell. II
was nearly dawn.
Suddenly through the black mist
spat the red flame Of a rife; with the
Game and the crack came the sound
of man running. 1t was the Ken
tuckian, Stephen Mars, of Geiger's
company. an outpost. A dozen rifles
in the hands of crawling Indians rang
out; he fell in the wet and tangled
brush. his face In the sodden ground.
The night, which had been sound
less snve for the soft rush Of the rain
and the dripping Of the. water from
the trees, suddenly became filed with
the stir and uproar Of the awakening
camp, with the whooping of the hid
den foe, striking in the dark.
David awoke from sleep and bound

wrist and dragged him down again,

company were quickly. silently look

crossed his face, as he reflected that
he and his little army, uncouth, pro-

sword of the progress of humanity
driving out the old order, substituting
the new.
The song of Elkskatawa, the Proph-
ct, the Loud Voice, went on. The
white men heard 1t and were troubled.
The red men heard 1t and grew drunk
with audacity. 1.-THE bullets of the
white man shall fall at your feet, my
children, and their powder shall be
sand" How could they be harmed?
Again their wild attack commenced; |;
they left the shelter Of trees and
fallen log and charged the slender line

the fight had just begun. Only little
breathing space they had; and In II
they looked upon the faces Of their
dead.
The commander and his ssaff In

pick their way through the trees,

At this moment David heard some
one calling to his captain. He strained
his eyes through the mist, and rs the
man ran up to Hargrove. David rec
ognizcd him as George Croghan. Cap
tain Hargrove spoke sharply:
"What's the matter?"
Croghan saluted. 1.-The chief sur

to let him have some assistance. We
have only three surgeons mates. We
need more help with the stretchers.

American Sailors in
 Foreign Waters Get
 Good Food and Plenty

Base American Flotilla in British Wa tefs, october -(Correspondence of tha Associated Press. )-Many of the Ameri can blueJackets here freouentlv re- ceive letters from ''the folks back home, llqulrihg II their boys are receiving plenty or rood. They read of the food restrictions in the British Isles and thsn set to wondering if by any chance these nave been extended to include thai. tackles. Forf answer Jack has sent lis bill of fare back home. It shows inc American sailormen to be perhaps inc best fed body of fighting men on active war service anywhere in the world. Here IS an average Monday bill of fare for the general mess:
 Breakfast-Fried eggs, ham hash, rolled oats, milk and sugar. bread. butter. cof. fee.
 Dinner-Bean soup pickles, roast beef gravy, mashed potatoes fruit pudding, bread, butter coffee.
 Supper-Brown beef stew, boiled rice kidney beans bread. butter and tea
 The bill of fare IS varied from day to day and includes omelets. fried bacon soups, fresh vegetables, such as, for n- stance, fresh tomatoes, peaches and cream, asparagus on toast, apple sauce and many other dishes Here is the Fri day list of "chow." as the men prefer to call their meals:
 
 catsup. rolled oats, milk and sugar. bread, butter, coffee
 Dinner-egetable soup, boiled ham boiled cabbage, turnips, boiled potatoes, bread, butter. coffee.
 Supper-Creamed codfsh, toast. Italian uacarcni potato salad. cornstarch pud- ding. bread, butter, tea.
 Extra helpings are unlimited. Appe- tites arc catered to in a most wonderful way, for Uncle Sam realizes that noth- ing keeps his boys in fit fighting trim as much as feeding them well. In kecp- ng with this policy the government has just raised the money allowance for feeding the boys. 1t Is now 55 cents a day for each man. It used to be 45 cents. The increase was necessary to keep pace with the increased cost of foodstuffs. And what is quite as important, the food Is well cooked. For instance, on the tender or mother ship the chef is Phil 1delphian who gained his experience at two of the largest Atlantic City hotels. He has been cooking for the sailors for he last nine years and he knows his business

Leaving out the infants and the helpless

The Buddhist organization is strictly rel-

But the Roman church has been less rel-

Rome began to aspire to immense wealth and
to the Temporal sovereignty of Italy.
(See Gregororious, "History of Rome in the

The first official utterances of the present

still attaches more Importance to its political
ambitions than to its religious mission; and
