Russia That has not been done since
Napoleon made kings of his relatives,
dukes and princes of ''nobodies," or at
least not since Woodrow Wilson set
up various little countries in Europe,

John J. McGraw, baseball player of
renown, is dead, only sixty. A fiery
baseball fighting man, McGraw won
victories in the line of throwing a ball,

mapping out really belongs to Eng

part of three large sectors around
the South pole" that belong to Britain
because she saw them first.

poles require 1900 years to make a
complete sweep of the heavens, and
the day is far off when today's South

with President Roosevelt to restore
prosperity, instead of swapping and
snarling at the Presidents heels."e
Senator Reed, who knows politics,
will study this statement thought
fully. This country is really begin

its own government. The good old
party label. with its pointing with
pride and viewing with ALARM" has
lost its importance.
Washington agrees to let Spain send
US 100000 gallons of wine and Spain
agrees to buy about 100000 pounds
of American tobacco.
Port wine is recommended for the
old, in small quantities, when they
are no longer able to assimilate claret
and other, lighter acid wines.
But California produces excellent
port wine, sherry also; and it is well
to give American producers as much
