army ana commander 6fs 1.-THE American

story is told by General Pershing's sis
tiers, Mrs. Butler and Miss May Per
shing, who are reside dents OF Lincoln. q
e It was while General Pershing and
his sister, now Mrs. Butler, were. at
tending the Missouri State Normal
school at Kirksville, Mo-. that his at,
tention one day was called to newspa-
per announcement that examinations
were. to be held for appointment to the
West Point Military academy. Young
Pershing asked his sisters advice as
toswhether he should try for the APP
pofntment and she advised him to do
so. Then followed a short season Of
intensive study In preparation.
In a few days he was called before
the examining board and, although Inn
properly prepared, received the high.

soon afterward was notified Of his APP

When the time came for the hatch

little catexpillars fed them on the
leaves Of the mulberry, took their CO.

derived the first silk produced in Eu-

been a treasure Of China, and its man

duced it, was jealousy guarded. The
monks, while on a missionary enter

55 Assumed Responsibility Early.
\ As q boy General Pershing, his sis
tiers say, was Of a quiet, serious tenn

six children, many Of the responsible
ties Of the family. B. Il. e. .: ~,
.John," Mrs. Butler said, although
Of a quiet disposition, liked q good
time and enjoyed fun as much as any
one. Yet when he started anything he
wanted to get the result, and he gen.
orally attained that object before he
gave 1t up" I: !. -
After having been graduated from
West Point and having served with
General Miles in campaign In New
Mexico against the Indian chief Ge-
ronimo, .Pershing was stationed as mil
itary instructor at the University OF
Nebraska. His friends there remem-
Der him as fun-loving young man,
who enjoyed music and dancing, par
ties and other social activities and who
appreciated good joke.
+ "Old Jack Best" the veteran trainer
1T the university, remembered Per
shing intimately. "He was one Of the
finest men that ever worked with"
said Mr.. Best. TITS true he was mighty
strict with his work, but the results he
rot were so good that everybody he
worked with loved him for it. When
he was here we had regiment the
university could be proud OF.
"Usually he was mighty dignided IN
his work, but he had a way of getting
next to new men," continued Mr.. Best.
'The first time I ever saw him he
walked right up to me. slapped me on
the shoulder and said: We'll, Jack,
they tell me you got along mighty well
with my predecessor. II you did, am
darned sure Wen get along just as

General Fond Of Gardening.
.aThe boys at the university got a
surprise the first day Pershing drilled
them" said Mr.. Best. 1T had been
their habit before that time to come to
drill with shoes blackened or not, just
as they pleased. When Pershing took
hold the first thing he looked at was
to see that all shoes we're well blacked
and that the heels looked as good as
the toes. He was just that thorough
going in everything all the time. He
was AL in every way, and you can ask
anyone who knew him If that isn't the
gospel truth"
Odd as it may seem in a fighting
man, General Pershing's one fad, &C
cording to his sisters, is gardening
His father was an expert gardener
and the taste descended to the mill
tary man. Whenever he was on leave
he Immediately would don working
clothes and go into his fathers garden
seemingly enjoying the work over the
vegetables as much as he enjoyed 20
eaal activities.

Indian Nine Has
to Solve Pitching
and First Base Jobs

Williamsburg. Va, March Is.--For
several days Coach Peachy has been
inheriRg up his some twenty-five
candidates for the William and Mary
baseball team. Work OF only a mild
nature was INDUCED in last week. but
this week coach expects to put them
through some regular seasons grind.
The battery candidates began tossing
them across last Friday and by the
middle of this week the pitchers
should be able to shoot them over at a
lively rate In batting practice. While
yet the men have not been able to
display their ability. number of new
men are at hand to be developed. and
II Is the consensus of opinion. that
from the new material and subs" OF
last year Coach Peachy will be able
to formulate a good team considering
war conditions and the fact that there
is only one letter man returned.
The most serious proposition to be
solved this spring are the battery and
first base positions. As yet there are
only two men of any ability out for
the pitching positions. The failure
Of Frank Garnett to return to college
leaves vacancy hard to fill on the
pitching STAFF. Garrett was by far
the most brilliant slab artist Of the
Eastern Virginia association during
the past few years. The two candi-
dates out to NIL Garnetts shoes are
Settle and Joyner: the former is a
new man. while the latter Is last
years substitute. The receiving posi-
tlon seems as vet to be between Zeh-
mer r. J. Johnson and Murphy. There
is little to choose between them and
their sticking ability will decide the
matter.
At first base, Fitchett, Tally and
billiard seem to have the edge on the
other asptrants. but some other man
may develop later. The absence OF
hurry win be greatly felt at this posi-
ton. Captain Love will again play
the keystone position and w. w. John
son. who played in a number of games
last year will probably be his running
mate at shortston. Fentress, who aeso
played in several games last seaso
will without doubt play the hot cor
ner. Other new men, who are show
ing up well at these positions are
James at shortstop, and Motley at
third.
In the outheld we find three men,
who seem to show the earmarks OF fast
gardeners and seem TO have the edge
on the other candidates. These men
are Brooks. Garrett and Parrish~-all
substitutes OF last years team. Lee.
Of last years william and Mary acad :
envy team is also showing form and
will give someone a run for a out
field birth Coach Peachy has Sc
cured for ten men excuses from mill
tary drill. This will enable him to
have aeld practice for his fret string.
while others are drilling.

as did Stecher

But the inevitable happened, in

Lemle. and Stecher carried his
shoulders to the mat after twenty
