Frank III. Simonds Believes
By Frank H. Simonds

have served to recall to the
mind of every one familiar
with history the circum-
stances which surrounded the fall
II the First Empire in France, the
Brief period Of the First Restoration
and to suggest the possibility, un-
lnistakably remote, that Germany
is approaching the moment when it
will risk another Waterloo by in
viting back to power the ancient
regime, the Hohenzollerns.
Granting that there are nearly
as many points of difference as of
resemblance between the situation
Of 1919 and that Of 1915, it is at
least worth while. in view Of the
issues at stake, to examine the points
Of resemblance, and as a conse-
quence the forces which make for q
repetition of one of the most dra.
matte incidents in the history of the
world.
To begin at the beginning, Napo.
leon abdicated in April, 1914, while
his own army was still in being. He
did not surrender in the presence
Of a supreme battlefield disaster, as
in the case of Waterloo. 1t was
true that the enemy had entered
his capital, that his own sadly dimin.
ished army could no longer keep the
field with any hope of success
against the allied forces and his
bravest marshals were precisely the
advisers who compelled an abdica
ton.
Yet in some fashion the Napo-
1eonic legend survived defeats
which were the result of the En-
peror's own mistakes but had been
inflicted upon his marshals. The
:. fall of Paris itself might be set
down-and was in imperial quar-
ters-to the treachery of Marmont.
Even in the fatal Marine campaign
which had preceded the collapse,
Napoleon had disclosed military
genius recalling his greatest Ital-
ian achievements, and Montmirail
was victory more far-shining, in
a sense, than Austcrlitz or Wagram.
The veterans Of the empire, par
ticularly troops who had been shut
up in German fortresses and had
mo- Share in the last campaigns, were
still convinced of their superiority
to the enemy, whom they had de-
feated on score of fields. All in
all, there was far more warrant in
the French army Of that day than
in the German army of to-day fo1
the belief that the ultimate defeat
had been brought about by other
than military influences, and the
French army was still capable OF
conquering as it had conquered.

WAR TO BAR
SP|TDALL RENE We'd
New National League Prexy
Agitating Abolition OF Freak
Deliveries.

| New York, Sept. 3.-( United Prcss)-
The suggestions of John X. Teaer when
he was president of the National league
are about to be carried out by Mis- sue
ccssor, John Heydler, largely through
pressure that has been brought to bear
on Heydler by friends of the former
president within the organization.
Tcner hated the spitball. He believed
J it to be insanitary, disgusting and uis-
necessary. Likewise he believed it a
lack of sportsmanship in baseball to
permit pitchers to diseolor the bali or to
doctor it, Or deface it in any way be-
fore delivery. He fought hard against
these things, but never was able to con-
vince his elubowners that the freak de-
| liveries should not be permitted.
One result of the obstinaey OF those
mag9ates who had high priced pitchers
on their clubs dependent on the foreign
deliveries, was the victory of Eddie G-
cottc over the New York Giants in the
world s series of 19l7-a distinct blow
to the National, for the New YorScrs
had been picked to win. Cicotte = best
delivery is the "shineball,' an optical
| illusion attending the ball in flight, due
to discoloration Of one side Of the ball
und a shiny whitcncss on the other side
| However, Heydler, in statement a
few days ago to close friends declared
/ war on the foreign deliveries and prom
iscd that he would introduce rcsolu-
tion into the next meeting of tho Ma
| tional and seek to have barred the EN-
cry ball, the shire ball, the licoricc ball,
the parafine ball, the talcum powder
ball, and other freaky deliveries, which
have become popular during the last
few years. OF course, if he goes this
far into the subject it must follow that
the spitball also is doomed, and II the
National soaks it with killing wallop,
the American practically will have to
trail along.
With these deliveries out, however,
there will be some interesting things
taking place in the two leagues. Hod
Eller, for instance, will have to start
all over learning the pitching business,
for he is practically dependent on the
parafine ball. Eddie Cicottc will hayo
to develop new cunning. SPECIALISTS
by the dozen clutter up the works of the
two majors. These will be able to stick
through legitimate use of the baseball,
but many of them are totally dependent
on the crazy break attained BIZ doctor
ing the ball. The minors yawn for them

which has been doing such good work
here at home during the war. The en-
tertainment consists of play, "Fads
and Fancies," IA rollicking, laugh pro
voking comedy by Eleanor Maud
Crane, to be followed by a dance to
some corking good music.
1t has been a long time since PalI-
sade has danced. 1t has not felt like
making merry during the war, but the
war is over now, and this entertain
ment of the girls of PaliSade is the
first social event to mark the coming
of peace. The entire cast of "Fads
and Fancies' is composed of girls,
which makes it a unique production.
Rehearsals have been going on for
some time, and the performance prom
ises to be splendid one.
The proceeds of the entertainment
and dance all go to the Girls Patriotic
League War Work Fund, and money
could not be contributed to worthier
cause The price of the tickets is very
moderate, only 80 cents, and this in
cludes not only chance to see our
girls in their first play, but Il chance to
have good time and dance after
wards
The cast is q large one, and its men,
berS have shown a rare degree of tai
ent 1t would be unfair to reveal any
of the details of plot, but the play
abOunds with good situations and
smart bits. Palisades girls who take

Mr.. Charles II. Logan, Editor of The
Palisadian, Palisade, N. j.:
My Dear Sir-JuSt prior to last cleo
ton day there appeared an article in
The Palisadian to the effect that the
borough of Cliffside Park had deficit
amounting to $4,000. At a regular
meeting of the mayor and council of
the borough of Cliffside Park held on
Monday evening, January. 13, 1919, the
Finance Committee reported that as a
result of an examination of the books
of the borough by the auditor it was
shown that there was a surplus of sew
eral thousand dollars.
In view of that fact it was resolved
by the mayor and council that your
paper be requested to publish an apollo
gy and retraction concerning this al
legged deficit, and they would ask that
the retraction be given the same prom
inence and publicity as was given the
false statement published just prior to
election.

Attorney for Cliffside Park Borough.

SCULLY RAKES NuCENT
FORE AND AFT, SAYS NO
ONE CAN WIN WITH HIM

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Representa-
tive Thomas J. Scully, who recently
announced his candidacy for the Dem
ocratic nomination for governor of
New Jersey, issued this statement at
his office here today:
Il observe in one of the leading New
Jersey newspapers Newark Evening
News, January 16) that Hudson
county leaders are trading patronage
and leadership in the legislature for
James r. Nugent's support of Edward
/. Edwards candidacy for the nomina-
ton for governor
Il have a great deal of interest in
the Democratic party, and am tre-
mendously interested in seeing it sue
cessful in putting its principles into
practice, but it is not going to have an
opportunity TO put its principles into
practice in New Jersey If the man who
is going to lead it next November, the
man it is going to nominate for gov
ernor, has had that nomination OBJ
tanned for him from James r. Nugent
Woodrow Wilson won in New Jer-
sey eight years ago in spite of Nu-
gents support, because he was 50 big
a man that the peoples confidence in
him overcame even that handicap. But
with all due respect to the former
state comptroller, he is not another
Woodrow Wilson, and his association
in the past with Mr.. Nugent is al
ready too we'll known.
Il will not go into the question of
State problems at this time, except to
say that believe the people of New
Jersey will welcome the opportunity
to vote for candidate, either Demo-
cratic or Republican, who they believe
is Independent of party bosses and
will do something in the three years
of his term of office to cut down the
growing weight of state taxation by
looping off useless commissions and
calling halt to the constant increase
in number and salaries of state Of
fieials.
"But what sane man believes that a
Democratic candidate whose nomina-
tion is obtained from James II. Nu-
gent will do that work or can get
the necessary number of Independent
votes to have the opportunity to do
it?"

facts connected with the joint informal

The remainder of the estate is to be

which part is to be paid in full to the
