Lane of the Bridgeport club today, but the new pilot is working on the club he will have in 1921.

 The genial manager wifi keep in close touch with all the big baseball men who are today assembling in New York for the baseball sessions. Trades and purchases of players will be common and if there is a. chance to land any player with bright pros poets Manager McCann will be ready to make an offer for the Bridge port club.
 It is expected that not only will baseball managers of big leagues be on hand, but pilots of teams in leagues of lower classification will gather around the meeting well as baSebau scouts of every description, wh6 have combed the various leagues from Hudson Bay section of Canada to the Everglades of Florida, and if they do not know a promising ball player. then a manager doesn't know what a baseball looks like.
 So McCanp will hobnob with them at the meeting and he may be able to great value to Bridgeport and its ball team for 1921. After all the meetings and conferences McCanr will pack up his belongings and come to Bridgeport to make his home fol the winter.

MUST MELT BELL IN TOWER
Only Way It Can Be Removed From
St. Louis City Hall Is In
Bucketfuis.

st. Louis.-The two-ton bell which
hangs in the tower of the city hall has
made the tower unsafe, but the bell
is so large it would be dangerous to
try to take 1t down, so it is to be melt
ed right where it Is with acetylene
blow torches, such as are commonly
seen in use by workmen, repairing car
tracks.
Building Commissioner McKelvey
pronounced the tower unsafe as long
as the bell remains, because the steel
supports have become corroded. More
over, he said, an attempt to lower the
bell would be very dangerous, there
fore the decision to take it down
bucketful at time.
The only time in recent years that
the bell has been rung was the day
Of the armistice celebration. 1t was
rung when the building was construct
ed in 1904. The bell cost about 81
600. The expense Of removing it will
be about $500. 1t is six feet high
and four feet in diameter at the base.

San Francisco.-A tablecloth feet

Judge Graham as the last will and
testament of Mrs. Helen Scott and was
rejected by the court, not because of
its size, but because Mrs. Scott forgot
to date the will when she wrote it.

time she was estranged from her hus-

will find money in the bank to pay all
expenses. Put my black~dress on me.
Love to all. HELEN"
The will was offered by William M.

THE GERMAN CRIMINALS.

The ex-cfown prince of Germany,
Wilhelm, he styles himself in cable
this week, offering himself as substi-
tute for the other 900 Germans de-
manded for trial by the Allies, makes
himself sorry spectacle in view of
the circumstances surrounding his
case. The Allies have demanded these
900 men for trial on charge of brutal
murder in most caSeS-or other crimes
not allowed under the rules of civilized
warfare. They have offended humani-
ty and hence are subject to trial as are
other men who violate the law. A trial
of the ex-prince as one man in place
of the other hundreds would never suf-
fee as a satisfaction for justice. 1t
may be that these demands will never
be carried out, but that does not alter
the Offense against the world, society
and mankind Men have been tried
and convicted before for war crimes,
and German criminals should not be
spared any more than others.

FORT LEE HIGH SCHOOL.

Announcement is out that another
try at getting action from the people
on high school building is to be made
shortly. The last effort was an abOr-
tive one in that the number of votes
cast was far from representative.
Scarcely more than 200 votes were cast
in all, and only six or more votes were
needed to change the action of that
meeting and make it effective. This
small number would have made 1t a
minority action, if it had been carried
favorably. 1t is difficult to get an &C
curate expression from the people on
a matter as important as this school
question. If all the men and women
who are entitled to vote at school
election at least 5000 votes would be
cast in getting a decision. But if 1000
or even 500 votes could be gotten out
the real feeling of the people on the
subject would be known.
Everybody is interested in the school
facilities of the borough, and so every
effort should be made to get out as
many voters as possible when this mat
ter comes up again in the near future.
Whatever decision is reached it should
be taken gracefully by all and no
threats made to Overturn the board be-
cause it might not happen to suit GER
tain interests.

THE SALARiED MAN.

Before the war prices on nearly all
as possible. Then every dealer wanted
to see how low they could sell mer-
chandise. Today the general rule is to
see how high everything can be raised.
There is no longer any doubt about
profiteering. 1t exists as an arbitrary
rule under our noses. Wherever we
go we see the general tendency. No
article of every day use, from a paper
Of tacks to an elephant, but what is at
least doubled in value. This state of
affairs has been made possible because
of the great amount of money in circu-
lation. Wages have never been as high
as now in every line The greatest
Spenders are wage earnerS. The clos
est buyers are the rich. The people
most affected by existing conditions is
the clerk, the bookkeeper, the salaried
man or woman in general. They have
been the unwilling victims of high
prices, but are not in position to help
themselves. Giving up a job even in
prosperous times is not always the best
thing to do. People generally think
twice before going out of what was
formerly good paying position. So
they have remained at their posts, hop
ing that something might turn up
something in their favor 1t is this
class that is going to stand for the
present state of affairs just so long.
One of these days, if things do not
change, they are sure to revolt. 1t will
not do to say that they will find hard
shedding. They no doubt will not find
easy going, but their time is coming.
They are going to be heard from. And
when they speak it will be in thunder
Gus tones.

AGE-OLD BUILDING MATERIAL
"Pise," in Use for Many Centuries, Is
Merely Simple Form of
Concrete.

What is pise? The word, which in
, its complete form is written pise de
terre, betrays a French origin and,
from it's general appearance, might
well suggest some affinity with the
world of art. These preliminary i'm
pressions, however, will be found mis-
leading. There is nothing peculiarly
are common enough in some parts of
France, and reference to them abOunds
in French literature of the eighteenth
century.
The word itself, traced to its Latin
origin, apparently means nothing more
artistic than "battered." Perhaps the
simplest definition of pise is provided
by Pliny the Elder, who calls it
"earth battered between boards"
meaning by boards a form such as may
be used for concrete in construction
work.
The Roman sage adds that it was an
old and well-tried system of building
and remarks that Hannibal used this
material for watch towers on the tops
Of hills in Spain during his campaign.
Who knows whether it was not also
in use when CheOps built his Great
Pyramid; for there are prehistoric
pise buildings in New Mexico and Ari-
IONA which, some say, date back al
most to that period?
Certainly history cannot trace the
system to its origin, and the pise
dwellings now visible in France, Spain,
America, the British colonies and
elsewhere may give no complete indi-
cation of the extent to which this ma
terial was employed in other centuries.

A LITTLE COMMON SENSE.

"We seek earnestly and prayer
fully for methods lesSening future
wars and will go far indeed in an
honest effort to that end" Thus
spake Chairman Hays, yesterday, in
the act of sounding the Republican
"keynote" for 1920 If this he said
10 be a trumpet of uncertain sound,
in behalf of party supposed to be
almost a unit in opposing the League
of Nations, it is only in accordance
with the actual situation of the Re
publicans. What they are now ear
nestly and prayerfully seeking is some
form of compromise on the League
which will let them out. The air to-
day is full of talk about so changing
the plan that Republicans can gladly
accept it. Reports of amendments
that will makeHthe document accept
able come thick from Paris, from
Washington, from Boston, from Mime
apois. For some Republicans it
would be enough to take out few
commas and put in Il sprinkling of
capital letters. Others will ask that
the "Wilsonian" features of the draft
be altered. 1t would be the easiest
thing in the world to make those
features look Smutsian or Cecilian or
Taftian or even Rooseveltian! The
thing Republicans are begging for is

INDIANS TRIBUTE TO MOTHER
Red-Skinned Fighter in World War
Proves Worthy Descendant Of
Race of Chiefs.

Wounded With Many-Arrows is an
Indian living in South Dakota.
According to an Indian custom. the
first thing an Indian mother sees or
says after her child is born may be
chosen as the infants name. The
night of his birth, in April, 1891, the
mother saw q warrior who had been
wounded by many arrows; hence the
name given to the newborn child.
Entering the world war in the
armies of the great white father at
Washington, the first thought OF this
copper-skinned descendant of race
of chiefs was of his mother, whom he
named as the beneficiary in his $1O,-
600 government war risk insurance
policy.
The mothers name is Susan-Loves-
the-War and she lives at Wakpola, s.
d. She was proud that her son was
among the first to respond to the call
of the United States for soldiers to
fight for their country; she was glad
when he came back, unframed, full OF
wonderful stories of the adventure
through which he had passed. And
she realized that he had, by allotment
of pay and by his insurance policy,
demonstrated that all he had was hers,
as everything he was he owed to her.
Wounded With Many-Arrows might
be called Indian-Good-to-H Mother.

JAPAN HOLDS ON TO COTTON
ing of Yarns and Tissues Out
of the Country.

Tokyo.-The Japanese government
has decided to prohibit the expectation
of cotton yarns and cotton tissues in
order to check the advance Of prices.
Owing to the shortage of supply
against the ever-increasing demand,
the price of raw cotton has gone up
1877 per cent.
1t is alleged that this is in part due
also to speculative dealings of cotton
yarn brokers, who have taken advan-
tage of the buoyant market and the
fast falling supply to deal in futures.
The government has decided also to
exempt from cvstoms duty cotton
yarn and cotton tissue imported from
abroad. Several large spinners in
Osaka and elsewhere have ordered
cotton yarns from the United States
and China and many Japanese cotton
mills will augment their manufacture
ing capacity with spindles and other
machines imported from the United
States.
