The offerings of Roy Sanders prov

and cit Tierney's All Stars made it
two straight in the final game of the
series yesterday at Association Park,
8 to 3. A crowd of five thousand per-
sons saw the game. In the first in

visitors made their other counter in
the ninth on three hits.
Sanders struck out thirteen Giants
and in seven of the nine innings he
had them eating out of his hand. John
Donaldson. who was scheduled to
work for the Chicago team, developed
a Charley Horse and whitworth was
sent to the mound.

FRANCE OUR SOLDIERS KNEW

Good Use.

When we first arrived in France the
currency seemed more like o wrap
pers or cigar coupons than real, hon
est-to-goodness money. We blew 1t,
burnt 1t, threw 1t away. The French,
with whom economy Is almost a vice,
stood around aghast for a while, then
started gathering 1t In. They reasoned
that only millionaires would be so ex-
%travagant, and raised their prices ac-
cordingly. After a time the money
became very real to us, but by then
the damage was done. We had sowed
the wind and we stayed to reap q tor
nado. The buck private casual paid
the same prices as the colonel, just be-
cause he was an American. The
money that one of us dropped in
France has founded the fortune of
some future bourgeois dynasty. Today
Paris is crowded with nouveaux
riches of the war.

the power of reasoning blame the
French individually for exploiting us.

of Chickamauga a young Captain Of

right of the Union line. Mr.. DANA
narrates the incident thus:
II had not slept much for two
nights, and as 1t was warm I dis

II had no sooner collected my
thoughts and looked around toward
the front, where all this din came
from, than saw our lines break and
melt away like leaves before the wind.
Then the headquarters around me
disappeared. The graybacks came
through with a rush. The whole

been routed.

The choice Of Geneva as the capital
Of the League Of Nations meets the
favor Of neither France nor Belgium.
The Belgian Foreign Minister, PAUL
HYAMs, declared that Brussels from
sentimental and material reasons
should have been chosen. He said:
Had Zurich fought of the German
hordes for fourteen days. had Bern
been occupied August 20. 1914; had :
Geneva withstood the terrific bonn
bardment to which Antwerp was SUBJ
jected had the Swiss army battled
for four years along the Rhine as
the Belgians fought and died along
the User, then we would understand
why Geneva would be chosen"
The selection Of Geneva was due
to the championship of that town by
President WILSON. The capital Of the
league, he insisted, should not perpet-
uate the enmlty between races, and in
his opposition to Brussels he spoke OF
the Belgian capital as "a city which
had been wronged. doubtless, but
which makes reconciliation between
the peoples of Europe more distant by
the very wrongs it had suffered"
But should a flower SO tender and
so susceptible to climatic conditions as

ago Captain Horace POTTER, then
three years out of West Point, re-
ceived the Congressional Medal Of
Honor. Many decorations and pub.
lie tributes have crowned his achieve
ments since that time, but there Is
probably none which he esteems more
than that. Wounded at Secessionville
near the beginning OF the civil war,
he went through that mighty conflict
to Its very end at Appomattox, Just
as his grandfather, General ANDREW
PORTER, saw the War Of the Revolu-
ton through from Independence Day
to Yorktown. Perhaps Il 10 to that
strain Of ancestry that HoAAcE PORTER
owed the fighting blood In his veins
and the winning Irish wit and COM
mon sense that have added to his
varied distinctions in high diplomacy,
In rnilroading, in civil business, his
special and unexcelled reputation for
after dinner oratory.
OF course HORACE PORTER held his
ground At Chickamauga. He always
has, and he is holding It now. Mr..
DANA woke up to witness a charac-
teristic performance. Our reason for
reviving the story of Captain PoR-
TIERS survival of the menace Of the
bayonet aimed at him by the STAN
peded and mutinous soldier Is that
to-day he is engaged in rounding out
the eighty-second year Of distin-
guished and most honorable career
Of public usefulness in many fields.
THE Suns congratulations 60 to him
this morning, as will those Of thou
sands and thousands Of his and our
fellow citizens.

claring that they would obtain redress
with their bnyonets. Two commit
tees. one from Congress and another
from the Pennsylvania Council, we're
sent to nbate the alarming sltua ton.
The mutincers finally accepted sup
plies of clothing, certificates for the
arrearages Of their pay and the dis
charge Of all who had enlisted for
three years or the war" their own
oaths being taken as to the terms OF
enlistment. Soon afterward some
New Jersey troops, excited by the sue.
cess Of the Pennsylvanians, initiated
them; but this mutiny was put down
and two Of the mutineers were ex-
ecuted.
The third revolt occurred In 17S3
after the proclamation Of peace. There
was delay in the preparation Of
Treasury notes for the payment Of the
men, and 800 Pennsylvania soldiers,
after sending an insolent note to Con-
gress, left Lancaster and marched to
Philadelphia, where they beset for
three hours the State House, In which
both Congress and the Pennsylvania
Council were sitting. Congress, dis
gusted ut receiving no protection from
the State authorities, temporarily
transferred its sessions to Nassau
Hall, Princeton. Meanwhile General
WASHINGTON had been notified and
he sent 1,700 men to Philadelphia and
quickly put down the mutiny. Sew
eral Of the mutineers were condemned
to death by court-martial, but none
was executed.
SO 1t must not be thought that the
Michigan conscripts stand alone as a
reprehensibie example. 1t Is likely
that these men in Russia have indl-
vidual concepts, ns had the mutineers
Of 1881, as to the period for which
they were drafted. 1t is also likely
that they, like the rebellious soldiers
Of 1888, have become weary Of what
seems to them neglect on the part Of
their Government. Nobody will ap-
plaud mutiny, but every fair person
will consider the cause-stupidlty,
neglect or something else-which may
have provoked 1t. And nobody who
looks at the facts will deny that the
policy of the Administration In the
matter Of keeping troops in Russia
has been weak and aggravating when
ever 1t has not been utterly beyond
comprehension.
