And although this barber Is termed
as a cut-throat, he refused to lie, as
Old Eddie Plank. who some claim to
be a peammate Of Gen Grant in the
civil war. just cannot grow old at
the pitching OF the horsehide. For
ten innings yesterday at the Florida
avenue ball park this same veteran
OF the southpaw slants from Gettys-
burg fooled Griff's hired men, but
the lucky crap number of eleven
was a trifie too much for the famous
Brownies, as the Nationals stepped
into his twisters in this session and
pushed across the lone tally that sent
all hands homeward bound.
They all look alike to Plank, right
handlers or left-handers, but the Old
Fox still worked on the theory that
right-handers should bust open the
southpaw pitching, but not so with
the assortment that Eddie was send
ing up from the hurling mound, as
I'VE scattered, stingy bingles were
gathered on his delivery during the
battle.
Five hundred Of the Khaki Klad
Klan from Camp Ordway were on
hand, and the noise they made
throughout the contest was enough
10 get the nanny Of even a veteran
like Plank. but their roofing could
not rattle him, and it was just
case Of the route being a tribe TOO
far.
Grif exhibited to his guest the best
In his stable when he sent Walter
Johnson to the firing line for the
locals. and his selection proved to be
a good one as a real pitching duel
was staged. The game was played
in one hour and forty-six minutes and
considering the two extra innings 1t
will be recorded among one of the
fastest games Of the season and
one Of the fastest ones that Plank
has ever worked in
The slow ball southpaw HEAVIER
fooled the Nationals until the eleventh
when he weakened sli yhtly and issued
Eddie Ainsmith free transportation to
the initial sack. Johnson attempted
10 sacrifice him along but he popped
to Sisler. Horace Milan then caught
a hold of one of Plank's near-fast-
balls and sent slashing drive to left
field, and Ainsmith by brilliant foot
work made third base by inches.
Eddie Foster then came through
with the telling punch. as with the
Browns infield playing in he hit a
sharp grounder to center field which
scored Ainsmith and sent the gather
ing home.
The Nationals had a chance to salt
the old ball game away in the third,
but the veteran Plank had plenty
left in reserve. Ainsmith hit to left
field and stole second. With two
down Plank then issued walks to
Foster and c. Milan. and forcing
Sammy Rice to be easy pickings by
the Pratt-Sisler route.
Johnson held the visitors well in
check throughout the game. In the
third Lavan led or with n single,
but he failed to advance as the next
three batters were soft spots. In the
fifth SEVERED started with a base
blow, but Austin, Lavan and Plank
went down in the order named.
Things looked dosy for the
Brownies when Lavan started the
eighth with a double to center field
and Plank drew a base on balls
Shotton sent both runners up a peg
with a neat sacrifice. Smith then
drove a long fly ball to c. Milan
and Lavan attempted to take advan-
tage of his throwing arm but Clyde
cut the doctor down at the dish with
a great peg to Ainsmith. The score:

WAR GREAT LEvELER OF MEN

Plebeian Are , Equally Valiant
When Call to Arms Comes.

I asked the president Of an impor-

responded most quickly to the war
drum, writes Girard in the Philadel-
phia Public Ledger.
'The surprising thing" said he. fs
that there is no class in this response
At our college the boy who is regarded
as the best dancer was among the very
first to volunteer. AS many glee club
fellows as football men are going to
the front. Athletes are no more eager
to face the cannon than are our bright
est students" :
War, like death, levels up and down.
Those aristocrats and high-bred gentle
men, George Washington and Marquis
De Lafayette, starved quite as well at
Valley Forge as did the frontiersmen
from interior Pennsylvania.
Meade. the cultured patrician, stood
the gaff of battle as well as but no
better than did Sheridan, the plebelan.
Marshal Murat, son Of a tavern
keeper. became a king, and Marshal
Ney, son of cooper, later grew into
prince, and both were as valiant
upon many a bloody battlefield as
were the sons Of emperors and czars.

Among the efforts being made by
England to get better crops, on account
of the threatened food crisis, one of
the most interesting is an experiment

This experiment, under the supervision
OF V. IL. Blackman, professor of plant

Ihe purpose. Of the experiments is to

TREASURE IN ROYAL VAULTS
Vast Accumulation Of Jewels, Armor,
Furniture and Works Of Art Stored
In British Palace.

Special precautions are taken at
buckingham palace during renOvations
for guarding the treasure vaults. These
are three in number, and their contents
are of great value, comprising the
vast accumulation Of jewels, armor,
statuary, pictures, furniture, etc, which
have come into the possession of the
royal family through various channels
during the last two centuries, and for
which no accommodation can be found
in the state apartments Of the royal
residences.
Two of the vaults are Of great size,
the largest measuring 800 feet by 26O
feet. These are used for the storage of
furniture, pictures, etc. The third vault,
much smaller and steel lined through
out, is the Jewel room, the contents Of
which may be termed priceless. OF
gold ornaments alone there are over
5000, weighing considerably over a
ton in all, and many Individual items
would fetch thousands Of pounds In the
open market.
Most of these treasures came to
Queen Victoria as gifts from other
sovereigns. Every object in this vault
is catalogued, and the whole collection
is checked once year under the su-

EDITORS INITIALS CUT OUT
Employees In italian censor's Bureau
Didn't Understand American
Newspaper Ways.

ROme.-The italian censor's office
has been baffied for two years In an
effort to discover the meaning of little
groups Of letters and dashes, such as
"axyz-wtv." and SO ON, which appear
at the euds of news items sent out by
the Associated Press in New York
and remailed from there to the AS
s9ciated Press correspondents from
whom the items came.
These marks are the initials of the
writer, editor or manifolder Of the
item, but apparently the employees OF
the censor's bureau suspected they
conveyed some mystic meaning, for
when received by the correspondent
here they have often been cut out Of
the pages. or carefully obliterated with
ink or, sometimes, the entire batch of
mail is withheld for two or three
months at time.
The latter is the favorite method
pursued by the censor's office for pre-
venting information Of a harmful ma
ture from being disseminated. It Is
not unusual for news cables or busi-
ness dispatches of nature seemingly
suspicious to be quietly forwarded a
week or so after the sender has for
gotten having filed them.
On the whole, however, from an
American point Of view, there has
been little complaint regarding either
cables or mails. considering the ac-
tivity Of spies Of Italy. Most of the
complaints are made editOrially by
Italian newspapers which, when news
is dull. print long TRADES declaring
that the censor is suppressing inter-
esting news.
