Europe. Later he was taken tc
Egypt, Greece, France, and other for
eign countries.
In the year of 1876 he entered
Harvard college where he was a real
bright student. He graduated from
Harvard in 1880. He then studied
law for while but did not practice
as he had inherited comfortable
fortune and didn't have to worry
about getting a living. Later he be-
came active in the Republican party
and was elected to the Legislature
of New York where he served three
terms.
AS he was not strong enough for
continuous indoor work he went
west to the Dakotas for while.
There he managed two cattle ranches
for quite a long while When he
returned he was appointed Civil Ser
vice Commissioner of the United
States. Later in 1890 he was elected
Police Commissioner OF New York.

city around midnight and see what
the police were doing. Later he was
appointed Assistant Secretary of
Navy. here he built up the Navy a |
great deal
When the war with Spain came |
Roosevelt raised a regiment called |
Rough Riders and went to the war
On his return he was elected COVER

was elected President of the United |
States and Roosevelt as Vice Presi-
dent. In the year of 1901 Mckinley
was shot and Roosevelt took the oath |
of office. In the year 1904 he was
reelected. Roosevelt then took ac-
ton on the Conservation of Natural
Resources. He saved forest lands,
waterfalls, minerals and other things
for the generation to come" as he
said He built dams and canals for
the irrigation of the western desert.
BY 1920 more than a million acres
of desert land had been reclaimed
The government then took action
against selling the forest lands to
the public. Then was really when
the first forest reservations were
made The stock grazers also had
to pay fine when their stock got
on the forest reserves. Towers were
built where men were on lookout for
fire days and nights. Roosevelt also
bought the canal zone to build the
Panama Canal. He did so without
the cabinet. In 1901 they

SOMEBODY'S HALLOWEEN JOKE

SOMEBODY'S HALLOWEEN JOKE
In coming to school Monday morn
ing we found that somebody during
the week end had prepared a sur
prise party for us. For all the text
books had been mixed up, put in
wrong desks and piled up on Mr..
Simpsons desk. The whole room
was in topsy-turvy condition. 1t
took considerable time and trouble
to get things in order again.
A few of the books had been torn
and some books will never reach their
owners. These will have to pay for
them at the close Of the school year.
A few unmarked articles such as
pens, pencils, notebooks, tablets and
rulers were lost also.
If the talk Mr.. Nixon gave us Fri
day afternoon had been taken to
heart this trouble would not have
been caused. 1t was probably done
on Halloween night. These people
were out for fun and did this with
out any fore-thought, thinking it
would be great joke 1t might have
been a joke for the classes but Mr..
Nixon expressed his opinion as well
as that of the other member of the
faculty towards it in a talk he gave
the high school Monday morning. He
plainly showed his disapproval.
We should take this as an example
and in the following years when we
are out on Halloween we should |
think about how much trouble our
jokes are going to cause before we
play them

Present indications point to an
Increased demand for silver, lead.

Newhouse of American Smelling &
Refining Co.
Conditions are favorable in In
dia now, and as long as they eontin-
ne so, the demand for silver will be
good. Europe is using large guam
titles OF silver for coinage.
Lead is in particularly fine
position at present. The demand has
been increasing and production has
remained stationary.
"The zinc market is better than
L has been in some time, and the
demand is picking up. On the whole.
conditions are excellent for the metal
industry for the new year.

Johnson May Meet Waterloo
It He Continues Attack
on Baseball Gar

CHICAGO, Oct. .1S.-When Bar
johnson. president Of the American
League. returns Monday from Ell,
celsior Springs, NO., many persons
look for q few hot remarks from
him concerning the Dolan-McCon.
nell baseball scandal.
The battle Of words between Presi.
0ent johnson and Judge X. M.
Landiss high commissioner Of base.
ball, Is expected BY them. to Iast
well along into the winter. John.
eon has already made some burnins
statements on the subject and may
make more, but Lands holds the
whip hand.
There are two items which were
subscribed to by johnson, among
others, on January 81, 1891. one.
tne major league agreement: the
other, the pledge to support the
commissioner.
Suppose that Judge Lands should
decide that certain Of President
Johnson's remarks were detrimental
TO baseball. Kindly observe section
;. article /, OF the major league
agreement, subheaded detrimental
In the case of conduct detrimental
to baseball by major leagues, major
league clubs, officers, employees or
players, punitive action by the com.
missioner may in any case take the
form Of a public reprimand. In the
case OF a major league club the
commissioner may impose a fine
not exceeding S., 900 for any one Of
Tense. In the case Of a major
league club, punishment may extend
to temporary deprivation OF repre-
Sentation in joint meetings held
under this agreement. In the case
OF any official or employee OF a
major league or Of any major league
club, punishment may extend to
suspension or removal. For such
conduct a player may be declared
by the commissioner temporarily or
permanently ineligible to play for
any club which is a party to this
agreement.
In other words, If by any chance
Judge Lands should so decide any
of Mr.. Johnson's remarks as con-
duct detrimental to baseball he has
the authority, under the agreement
as quoted, to suspend or remove
him, inasnluch as he is an official
Of a major league"
And so far as recourse is con.
cerned this is covered in section /,
article VII Of the major league
agreement as follows:
The major leagues and their con.
Stituent clubs, severally to abide by
the decisions Of the commissioner
and discipline imposed by him I'M
der the provisions Of this agree.
nent, and severally waive such
rights of recourse to the courts,
that otherwise have existed in their
favor
In view of all this it looks as
though there'l be no finish battle
between the moguls. Judge Lands
already has this one won and he
can win any other simply by drag
ging out the book and Observing
the rules.

TE REFUSES AS
OFFER FOR
MANUSH
Cobb Wanted Galloway and
WEIGH, But Would Only
Give Rigney

A recent deal which Connie Mack
tried to engineer with Ty Cobb fiiv.
vered because the .player-manaeer
refused to part with the men the
Athletics tall leader wanted.
This swap, said to have been sug-
gested to Ty by Connie not so many
clock ticks ago, was an exchange
of an infielder and outfielder and a
bit Of Athletics club coin.
Mack was said to have offered
Chick Galloway and Ourfielder
Frank WEIGH and some cash for In.
fielder Emory Rigney and F'Tychaser
Harry Manush, but this failed to
appeal to Cobb, and the deal fell
flat as blown,out tire.
Mack's desire to get Rigney caused
some surprise for Galloway, while
not the Chick of 1922 and 1923 last
summer, nevertheless played as good
ball as the Detroit shortstopper and
only hit fourteen points before the
Tiger.
Manush was no better than WEIGH
In hitting for the season, for they
10th finished at the ,.288 mark, but
the lefthanded Tiger played consist.
Ent ball for the Bengals all year
and also developed into a sensational
fielder.
Probably no pinch hitter met with
better success than did Frank w elch
this season. Forced out OF the
regular lineup by the acquisition IF
Ell. Lamar and the recovery of BinR
Miller's hitting eye, Frank had to
stick to the bench, and only got into
O box score when he successfully hit
for some weak mate.
There is little doubt as to Wclch's
ability as ball player. He is one
Of the best, but like certain PLAYERS
finds he cannot do his best when
pieying here, and is said to be anx.
ious to get away.
1t was said that Cobb was anx.
ious to land WEIGH, and liked the
idea Of having Galloway with tie
infield, but he baked at giving awoy
Manush, and this ruined the pro.
posed swap.
This move by Mack shows that
the quiet leader has alreaay started
TO tinker up his machine for tho
lSlo Quincy. The purchase Of Lefty
Groves from Baltimore for the 800.
oOO, ana which was said to have been
contaminated Some months ago, is an
mixing to what Connie Is going 70
do ~ an effort to get a winner.
The way the Macl1s finished this
year indicated that the team hal
the punch, but Mack must think
Inherently, for he surely would not
try to swap Galloway and Welch and
also hand over money besides for
the two Tigers.
1t is said that Rigney suffers with
the, same complaint as WEIGH. He
feels he cannot play his best hall
In Detroit and would welcome
change. Rigney is a good fielder
and hits well enough for q shortstop
to make him valuable.
