reign he undertook fifty-three impor-

of which were successful In the end
his rule extended from the German
ocean to the Adriatic, from the Eng

d'etat which strengthened his hand
for the task came when he was kneel-

the surprise of every one the Holy
Father placed upon his head the i'm.

was regarded as the successor of the
Caesars. He was a magnificent pa

GENTLY expert to take up athletics as
a profession. a
Hughie Jennings conceived it to be
the duty of the Catholic boys to hear
Mass on Sundays. On the long trips
through the South on training jour-
neys it was often difficult to get to
church. Perhaps the only stop the
special train would make on Sunday
would be for an hour or two before
daylight at some little wayside station,
but Hughie always studied the train
schedule carefully Often he found
that the special would be sidetracked
for an hour between and 6 o'clock
Sunday morning. On this occasion
he would telegraph ahead to discover
if it would be possible for the boys to
attend Mass while the train idled on
the country siding. And If so, Hughie
would make it his business to get all
the Catholic boys on the club up and
| off to Mass. In doing this, Mr.. ,Jen-
nings was not acting as manager. He
realized that he had no right to order
boys to church. He was acting as
companion and friend. He never
missed Mass himself nor did he want
his friends to miss.
| Hughie urged all the players, of
whatever denomination, to attend the
church of their choice. He was de-
vout in his own religion, but the most
tolerant of men. He wanted the
players to be true to their faith and
to themselves, because he believed
that man true too himself and his
church was not only better man but
a better ball player.
A well-known sporting writer, who
made many trips with the "Tigers,"
tells of one incident that illustrates
this trait of the retiring manager.
During one of the long spring trips
Mr.. Jennings discovered one Saturday
night, that the train would make no
stop the following day until late in
the afternoon and that it would be i'm
possible to attend Mass. However,
just as the sun was rising the follow.
ing morning, the train came to stop
in a little South Carolina village. Jen-
nings discovered that a wreck, some
miles ahead, had blocked the track
and that the special would have to re-
main standing in this village possibly
for two hours. Off in the distance he
saw the sun glinting on small cross
at the top of country church steeple

gether they trudged across the fields
over freshly plowed ground, steam
ing in the morning sun, until they
reached the little church An hour
later they returned to the train, each
carrying bit of palm. 1t was Palm
i Sunday.
! Thus Hughie made the most of the
accident which caused the delay OF
the train that morning, and proved his
ability to take advantage of opportu
nities-the characteristic that has
made him great baseball leader. He
truly bats high in the morality league

A NO ACCOUNT DOG.

This dog of ours said Farmer Gray;
Hes really of no earthly use;
He brings in dirt, and scatters loose
Hairs on our clothes and furniture
down, Hippo, down! Down, sir!
Down, sir!)
He really isn't worth his keep;
He's certain sure no good for sheep!
No watchdog he, for not bark
He gives at footsteps in the dark.
He amt no earthly good nohow,
Though kind and gentle, I'll allow"
But wise old grandma shook her head:
Hes very good to love-" she said
But Farmer Gray was obdurate;
The cost of living was so great
1t was decreed the dog should go,
And little did the farmer know
That he was planning thus to send
Forth from his home the truest friend.
ooh, where is Willie? Where is hep"
Cried everyone distractedly,
And searched in vain, below, up
stair
Then out the house they rushed to
o horrors!- their sweet three-year-
old,
His garments clutched in Zippo's hold,
Hung DER the well-curb in such way
The curb bent with his body's sway,
And had not watchful Hippo been
On guard, he would have plunged
within!
Oh, oh. the praise the good dog had
From everyone. all were so glad
That Baby Willie mad been found
Without bruise, but safe and sound!
We'll, Hippo" then said Farmer
Gray,
Il calculate you'll have to stay
Giving the dog kind caress,
Whose eyes were raised in grateful
ness;
And grandma stroked his rough brown
head:
I'm sure you're worth our love-" she
said.

Gently. Another manager, possibly
better, possibly not SO good, will take

walks of life, no man is SO great but

friend and advisor.
Hughie Is a devout Roman Catholic,
and possibly so per cent of the pro-

to the fact that not until recent years

we'll actually dispersed several Cath.
Ollie congregations which met to cele-
brate the birth of our Lord. On De-
cember 25, IT'S, James Stuart, the
"Old Pretender," landed at Peterhead
to make the desperate attempt to re-
gain his kingdom which so nearly cost
him his life. The Jacobites rose to a
man. In Scotland the Earl of Mar
led the revolt, in England the Royal
list forces were under Lord Derwent-
water. Catholics rallied about the
standard, but though the venture had
been begun on such an suspicious day,
it came to naught. English might
prevailed, and James fed to France,
and thence to Rome, where he quietly
spent the remainder of his life.
Sir Isaac Newton, the great scien-
fist, was born on Christmas, and John
Newton, chaplain to Charles II, died
on the same feast. In 1896 Kosciusko,
the great Polish patriot, was liberated
from prison, and, with party of
| friends and adherents, started for

A London Christmas.

4Nearly three hundred years later
London was the scene of a Christian
coronation, for William the Conqueror
was crowned amid such tumult as the
city by the Thames had seldom seen
William, son of Duke Robert of Nor
mandy, had turbulent blood in his
veins. With him might was right.
His will was law. For the most part
it was good will. He was man of
ability, religious, blameless in his pri-
vate life, a strict ruler, and in the
main just, though tolerating not the
slightest deviation from his own ideas
of what should be done. Promised the
English crown by Edward the Con-
fessor, he meant to have it, and deter
mined to conquer England. The Sax
ons thought differently, and upheld
their views with true Saxon tenacity.
They argued with lance and battle AK
and arrows, until at fatal Hastings
there were few left to argue. and Viii.
liam took his burning, plundering war
to London. There he was crowned in
Westminster Abbey in anything but a
holy calm, for the citizens raised such
a turmoil that the new king granted
them a charter, which no ruler had
ever done before.

There is grave danger that the sup

No Surplus
The outsiders from whom ice can
be purchased are few and far between
for a season of extreme heat has been
experienced and more ice has been
consumed by homes, restaurants and
stores than in many years past. This
increased consumption has been the
cause of the present shortage. There
does not appear to be surplus in any
part of the state
1t is most likely that ice can be pur-
chased next month to fill the demands
of local people, only from manufac-
turers of artificial ice, the nearest
plant being located at Minneapolis.
Price Higher
The price of this product is antici-
pated to be much higher than the nat
ural product and with the freight add
ed to its original cost, consumers will
be obliged to pay rate quite consid-
erably higher than the present. There
is but one consolation in this-it can
