UP, GUARDS! AND AT THEM!
THE thrill of lighting nt the lhst ditch Is
granted to the Phillies today. They will
"be fighting at the last ditch If they win, and
they must keep on winning to keep on
fighting.
Consolations are not In order. The Phillies
are the gamest and bravest of teams. What
man can do they will do today. Not even
the Red Sox can do more.
As for taking three straight, which the
thlllles need for the series, why, that Is cx
:tly what Boston did. It's possible for the
hllllea to do It also.
f MORAL FORCES ARE INVINCIBLE
TTnOM the two neutral Balkan States, out
f. of the mouths of two former ministers,
save come strangely Interesting pronounce
ments. By way of Milan one reads that Tako
Jonescu, the former Rumanian Minister of
Jhe Interior, believes In the ultlmato partici
pation of his country In the war, not for
ho sake of aggrandizement, but because
Ve believe moral forces are Invincible." At
ne sarno- time Eleutherlos Venlzclos, de
mised Premier of Greece, declares his belief
lat the national soul of Greece makes war
tevitable.
"ynlcs may protest that there Is no such
k as a national soul, and that moral
,es are mere figments of the mtnd. They
ton without facts. In time of crisis. In
h of great victory or of great disaster,
'c.does emerge In every country a unity
tiling which can truthfully be called a
tonal soul. And when great decisions are
to made there is a perceptible swinging
he people to the side which expresses
Jrjrmer determination and their spiritual
coW justice. The recognized and estab
d sense ot righteousness ls a moral

It chief celebrants of yesterday's annl
sultary of the discovery of America were
eacilghts of Columbus and the Inhabitants
tjjjle Italy. The former are chiefly re
sole for the holiday; the latter might
Bcailngle gratitude with a certain pride In
EPcountryman. All of them aro good
trlcans and celebrate the day for Amerl
beasons. e surprising thing Is that so few others
d part In the holiday. It is still com
itlvely new, and has not yet woven lt-
Into the social and, what is equally Im

- THE NEW WAR SPECTACLE
.T REGULAR Intervals the war seems to
Xfall Into a rut of futility, when neither
&o advances and there Is no hope In the
decisive fighting of an early end. It must
' 4 realized that only a great victory for one
le or the other can decide the war. A
twn conclusion will lead not to peace, but
xi armed suspension of hostilities.
That Is why there Is some hopo In the
resent feverish activity on all fronts. In
ranco there can be only one conclusion
,awn from tho reports. Slowly, but with
eadly accuracy, tho Allies are reaching
lose lines of communication on which Ger
many's hold depends. The bitter counter-attacks
at Loos and Lahure have failed. If
Allied munitions and men hold out and no
reinforcements come to the Germans the
further German Invasion of France is
loomed to failure.
"Unquestionably the Allies will also make a
treat effort to combine two other fronts, the
jjlUMian and the Servian. For this purpose
)rand Puke Nicholas may be recalled and
placed In supreme command, Rumania Is
till not given over Xo neutrality. Her en
trance into the war would make the Austro
'tMiton drive to Constantinople a vastly
( re difficult project.
The Germans hold Franco not because
-Ijr yant France, but because they want
i jjKimttBOple. They hold Servia for the

enough to continue fighting n. long time. It
Is evident, also, that tho British citizen Ij
witting to pay whatever taxes the Govern
ment may levy. Ho Is rending tho budget
estimates with calmness and preparing to
pay the new taxes ns the price of success.
While the Germans are talking of victory
the British are preparing to spend their last
shilling before they will surrender. Their
ability to pay their sharo of the now loan
floated In America Is undoubted.
UNIVERSAL FREE TRANSFERS
TN CLEVELAND and elsewhere they have
been experimenting with threo-cent fares.
It Is In Philadelphia that there aro such
things as exchange tickets, whereby a work
man Is compelled to pay eight cents to get
home at night. A salient featuro of the
Taylor plan, therefore, In addition to Its
provision for high-speed lines to all sections
of tho city, Is Its arrangement for universal
free transfers In a forward direction.
It is absurd, says "Davo" Lano, who se
lected Smith as a candidate for Mayor, to
suppose that there can ever bo a universal
five-cent faro In Philadelphia. Quito a pes
simist ho Is. Other cities, where tho tralllc
Is not in any respect so heavy, have a uni
versal five-cent fare. It Is economically pos
sible, as moro expert financiers than "Dave"
Lane have agreod. What "Davo" Lano
doubtless meant was that ns long as he re
mained City Chairman of tho Organization
and could "put one over" on the peoplo of
Philadelphia ho would see to It that a uni
versal five - cent fare was politically im
possible. But Is It? Not unless the people of this
city aro sound asleep and as thriftless as
Rip Van Winkle. The extra three cents
which many citizens aro paying would look
good In a savings bank. Men aro not likely
to 'vote ngalnst their pocketbooks, and there
aro not enough Jobs to bo distributed at
City Hall to persuade any great multitude
that they ought to throw away their money
In tho hopo of getting sinecures. No, the
only way In which tho people can bo
euchred out of quick transit and universal
five-cent fares Is by tho election of "Dave"
Lane's candidates.
There aro a good many Organization men
In this town who aro Just as opposed to tho
Lane tactics as other citizens are. They
resent the effort to force anti-transit men
down their throats. They are going to de
mand that tho candidates they vote for take
a transit pledge and stand unequivocally In
favor of tho comprehensive transit scheme
evolved by Director Taylor.
Lot tho obstructionists beware, no matter
on what ticket they may be. Philadelphia
Is determined In this matter absolutely de
termined. There Is only one kind of Coun
cils that will bo elected this year, and that
Is a transit Councils. There Is only ono kind
of Mayor and only one kind of City Solicitor
that will get to City Hall, and that Is the
transit kind.
The voters will attend to that.
COMBINATION VERSUS COMPETITION
BIGNESS Is not necessarily greatness. The
men who aro planning to unite the Medi
co -Chlrurglcal College with the medical
school of the University of Pennsylvania are
doubtless aware of this. But conditions are
now favorable for a union of these two great
schools to tho advantage of each. The city
Is about to take the buildings of one of them
to mako room for the Parkway, and it will
give for them a sum large enough to pay for
erecting a new group of modern buildings,
which, If combined with tho buildings that
the University has or Is ready to put up,
would provide ample accommodations for a,
school superior to cither.
"THOSE THAT ARE FOR AMERICA"
THE President's speech to the assembled
Daughters of the American Revolution
contained no more sympathetic and Incisive
passage than that in which he declared his
firm faith In the American citizens of for
eign birth or descent.
There has been far too much agitation
concerning the "hyphenates.1 They are few
In number and not too potent In Influence.
They are, as the President said, tremendously
vocal, Mr. Wilson Is right in declaring that
they should stand to one sldo and let "those
that are for America" stand on the other.
Pleasure In the sane view of the Executlvo
Is made even greater by the excesses of those
whom he criticised. On the cover of The
Fatherland of October 13 appears this legend:
"This IS a magazine for Hyphenated Ameri
cans." The Fatherland is confessedly pub
lished In the Interests of Germany, yet It
defends Itself by saying that 90 per cent, of
the American people are hyphenated, and in
sists that for this majority The Fatherland
Is published.
One wonders what Is the preclso degree of
pleasure taken In The Fatherland by Ameri
cans of French and English and Belgian
extraction. Then one Is consoled by the
thought that the President is right. The
Fatherland does not speak for German-Americans,
but for Germany. There can be but
one loyalty among us to America first, last
and all the time.
Good morrow 1 Has your candidate taken
the pledge?
The cold, intellectual atmosphere of Boston
does not agree with the Phillies.
Qbregon says that Villa will be dead
within 20 days; Just as If he were not a dead
one already,
Bishop Klnsolving, who says that the Ger
mans' in Brazil are armed and ready for an
uprising, might be described as an alarmist.
Mr. Lane Is doubtless In favor of tho same
kind of rapid transit that Mr. Smith wants
to see, and everybody knows where Mr. Lane
stands,
" i "
When a candidate resents blng asked
what ho jntends to do if elected, put It down
that if he has any Intentions nt all they are
bad ones.
The court has wisely decided that the mer
fact that a man has repented of his bargain

THE PITCHERS'
HALL OF FAME
Slab Artists Within the Memory of
the Oldest Fan What Became
of Them When Their Dia
mond Days Were Over
By THEODORE EDWARDS
WHAT bocomoi of all tho great pitchers
who thrill tho baseball populace for a
day? That depends upon the ago In which
thoy lived. If a man won his fame In tho
period from 20 to 40 yearn ngo, ho prob
ably went back penniless to manual labor
whonco ho came, else ho found nn early
gravo from dissipation and drink. But If ho
was fortunate enough to make his baseball
famo within tho last scoro of years, he may
still be drawing a good salary from some
club treasury. Or he may bo enjoying pros
perity n n successful dentist, physician,
teacher or business man. Some of tho heroes
of tho mound wo have even sent to Congress,
ono ft) nn cx-Govcrnor 'of our own State,
whllo those who have been elected to munic
ipal olllcoa nro too numerous to mention.
A. G. Spalding when ho died, a few weeks
ago, was head of the great sporting goods
house which still boars his name.' He was
ono of the few men who won nation-wide
famo on tho diamond ln the earlier period,
wai absolutely unspoiled by "it and then fol
lowed It up with even greater famo In tho
business world. Spalding Jumped Into tho
limelight us a 17-ycar-old boy with the Rock
ford, III., Club, wav back In 1867. Talk about
tho endurance of tho modern twirling giants!
Even Alexander tho Great couldn't duplicate
Spalding's performances. Just consider what
this original Iron man did In tho early '70s.
During that period ho was a member of tho
Boston Nationals, and he won tho league
championship for IiIh team four years In suc
cession. Ho was Boston's only pitcher and
he twirled every game tho team played,
though In those days games wcro scheduled
only every other day and tho season was
shorter than It Is now.
Eighteen Straight Games
Old timers lovo to dwell on tho prowess of
Charles Radbourne, who shono with quite as
much brilliance as Spalding until consump
tion cut short his career, about 26 years ago.
There wero contract Jumpers In those days
Just ns there aro now. Radbourne was a
member of tho Providence team, and when
Charles Sweeney deserted that club In mid
season only Radbourno was left for slab
work. But that didn't bother Radbourne,
for ho not only Jumped right In and did all
tho pitching, but he made a new world rec
ord by winning 18 straight games and tho
championship for Providence. This game
ness, however, cost Radbourno his life, for
his health broke under the strain, which was
generally credited with having caused his
consumption.
From day laborer to the world's premier
pitcher and then back again to digging
trenches Is, In brief, the history of Amos
Rusle, who from 1S89 to 1894 thrilled tho
baseball world. Ruslo had a narrow escapo
from being cast Into the utter darkness of
oblivion beforo he could get started. The
first day ho entered the big league ho was
weighed by Bancroft, the manager of the
Cleveland team, and found wanting. After
watching him pitch ono game Bancroft sent
him nwny on the next train out of town.
But John T. Brdsh, owner of the Cincinnati
Club, had faith In this youngster, gave him
his chance and suddenly the recruit blos
somed forth Into tho greatest pitcher of
his day.
But prosperity and the applause of tho
unthinking crowd wero too much for Rusle.
Old John Barleycorn attacked him, too, and
soon this man with the unhlttablo curve ball
dissipated himself down and out. Until tho
present year, when tho Seattle, Wash., club
found him and gave him a Job taking tickets
at their baseball park, Rusle was Just a com
mon day laborer, glad to earn a living dig
ging trenches.
It was drink, too, that ruined Charles
Sweeney, who had his fling during the period
intervening between Radbourne and Rusle.
In 1894 this man Jumped from organized
baseball to the outlaws. Then ho further
ruined his career by trying to prove that a
man can play winning boll and patronize tho
bar. Always an uneven contest, drink won,
and Sweeney died becnuso of his dissipation.
A Veteran "Rooting" Now
Then there were Tim Kcefe and John
Clarkson, about whoso respective merits the
fans aro still divided. In 1888 Keefe won 19
straight games for New York, while in 1899
Clarkson pitched 72 games for Boston, win
ning 46 of them. These two men, whoso ex
ploits were heralded from ono end of tho
country to the other, were radically different
In temperament. Clarkson utterly ruined his
health by dissipation and died In nn Insane
asylum. But Tim Keefe, thrifty soul that ho
was, retired with money In the bank, and Is
spending his old ago In Cambridge, probably
rejoicing this day that Boston has tho edgo
on tho Phillies.
Probably moro printers' Ink was used to
tell of the exploits of tho eccentric "Rube"
Waddell than any other baseball player that
ever lived. Rube was always good for a
story no matter what ho did. On tho dia
mond this man was forover breaking records,
first In Jumping from one team to another
and then by making now Btrlko-out records.
Probably his greatest feat was when ho
called In all tho outfielders and then retired
the side In order. But last year consumption
finished his broken-down constitution.
Cy Young belongs to a different school of
pitchers. He was a shining example of base
ball longevity founded upon clean living.
This marvelous man, who broke Into major
league baseball In 1890, pitched every season
for 22 years, a record still unequaled.
NOT ASKING MUCH
A million years how that thought staysl
I'd love to walk in these same ways
A million years, and years, and years!
Why there'd be music for my oars
That they would bend for even then.!
To hear the mocking birds again.
To hear the whlaper In the trees,
To hear the booming of the bees,
To hear the laughter of a child
Why, all the music that Is piled
In m'isle racks here, everywhere.
Holds not a note which can compare
For, one small moment with the notn
Of gladness In a baby's throat.
And so I love these Texas ways, ,
Her perfumed nights and golden days,
I love the children I have known,
Whose hearts I've tried to make my own.
In all the coast and Inland towns;
I lovo the babies' tousled crowns;
I love the mother as she croons
In the dim light the by-lo tunes;
1 love the men, big and strong,
With truthful eyes and hearts of song
Who, whn ttr crop or price fll
Do not ti a sorry wall.
But buW t try anew!
A rsllWen Lord, grant m two!

HENRI FABRE, THE INSECTS' HOMER
Best Read Man in the Book of Nature Was Born of Uneducated
Parents, But Became One of the World's Greatest Scien
tists and a Poet in All His Writings
By C. F. KINGSLEY
IN ANOTHER two months "the venerable
anchorlto of Serlgnan," 'as Maeterlinck
called him, would havo como to his $2d
birthday. A friend who visited him on a
recent birthday speaks of "the magnificent
spectacle of an old
man of whom the
soul remains young,
the mind clear and
from whoso lips you
hear no word that
resembles a com
plaint and who now
takes the road to
the end without re
grets and with se
rene resignation."
It was Maeter-
wwwwwpww i nii-rv. iuu, v uu fio
Fabre the appella-J-HENRIFABItB
t , n the ,MecU.
Homer." Homer, If wo mistake not, was a
poet a poet of both the homely and the
heroic. So Kabre sings us the Iliad of the
insect world, a world so unllko ours and so
Btrange, says Maeterlinck, "ono would think
that It was born of some comot that had
lost its course and died mad In space."
If Maeterlinck's publicity work for this
scientist and poet of a little village of Prov
ence did much to spread the namo of Henri
Fabre, a service had already been "rendered
In the opposite direction, .for 4to Fabro tho
younger man owed a great deal. At least
It Is certain that Maeterlinck was Irlsplred
to write his "Life of tho Bee" by his talks
with Fabre. With this book ranks tho tat
ter's "Life of tho Spider." To tho few Fabre
was known many years before his popular
fame. Darwin called him "the incomparable
observer." For the scientific accuracy of
his Investigations and writings was as
marked as the grace and dellghtfulness of
his literary style.
The Boy His Own Teacher
How ho came by his love of learning, of
literature, ot nature, of science, Fabre him
self never knew. He was born of very poor
peasant stock. Few of his Intimate forebears
could even write their own names. His
father at one time had a Httlo farm, but
neglected It and finally went to keeping an
humble cafe in one small village after an-SJ
other. Heredity Is hard put to it to account
for Henri Fabre. Ho was born at St. Leons,
In Vezlns, and was Provencal only by 'his
later adoption. He received nothing but the
most haphazard education In the rustic
schools which he attended as a tiny boy.
Mainly by his own Initiative and effort he
learned to read. He learned also a little
arithmetic. A year or two later he obtained
free Instruction In a secondary school, In
return for his services as an acolyte In
church, but principally he taught himself.
Finally he secured a position as teacher of
mathematics In the College ot AJacclo.
Fabro was endowed with a positive lust for
work. During his 20 years as assistant pro
fessor of mathematics at Avignon he es
caped on Sundays and holidays into the
country to prosecute his observations on In
sects In the open air. His genius became
recognized. He was sought out by such men
as Ylctor Duruy and Pasteur, He corre
sponded with Darwin, and made a number of
experiments for the English scientist. He
was dragged to Paris, much against his will,
presented to the Emperor Napoleon III and
decorated with the Legion ot Honor.
Nevertheless, he lost his Job.- Ills trans
lator, Alexander Tetxelra do Mattos, -tells tho
story as folows: "There Is no doubt that
Fabre Is a supremely Christian philosopher
and that his quarrels with the evolutionists
are due in no small measure to his belief
that they are prono to leave tho will of God
out of their reckoning. Now the Irony of
fato brought about that Fabre himself, be
cause he talked to his pupils pt tho beasts
and the flowers apd the stars and all the
wonders of nature, became looked upon, by
the narrow-minded Inhabitants of the pro
vincial town where he resided, as a 'danger
ous and. 'irregular person. It also happened
that at this time he had lost his protector,
Duruy, who had himself fallen Victim to the
persistent attacks of his obscurantist adver
saries. The opportunity was trelzod to form
a local cba against Fabre; and his enemies
'made tool of two maldwi tedtoa, a pair of
elderly aptaotetw wit own the bous In

which Fabre lived, and Induced them to give
him a month's notice to quit. Ho held no
lease, had ndt tho least scrap of a written
agreement to show, was without remedy of
any kind; and hehad to submit and go."
A Friend in Ilia Need
Fabre was then so poor that he had not
sufficient money to remove his belongings.
His salary had always been small, and he
had spent It all in support of his family and
In carrying on his observations and experi
ments. In his distress he turned to John
Stuart Mill, then a member of the British
Parliament, with whom ho had lived on
terms of intimacy In Rome. Mill imme
diately sent him 3000 francs, asking no ques
tions fcs to security or repayment. Fabre
shook the dust from Avignon off his feet and
went to llvp in Ordnge, and later In Serlg
nan, In Provence. The debt was discharged
within two years. Though many are tho
tales of Fabre's poverty In his old age, they
aro much exaggerated. A son and a diugh
tcr wero living with him at the time of his
death.
Of Fabro's philosophy he himself wrote
In deep humility:
"Because I have stirred a few grains of
sand on the shore, am I In a position- to
know the depths of tho ocean?
"Life has unfathomable secrets. Human
knowledge will bo struck off tho archives
of tho world before we possess the last word
of a gnat.
"Success Is for the loud talkers, the
Imperturbable dogmatists; everything is ad
mitted on condition that one makes a little
nolso. "
"Hypothesis is succeeded by hypothesis,
tho theoretical rubbish heaps up and tho
truth ever escapes us. To know how not to
know might well bo tho last word of
wisdom."
THE GREATNESS OF A CITY
The Philadelphia Dvenino Ledoeh has a
short editorial on "What Makes a City Great "
and this Is tho way It answers the question:
The greatness of this city, blessed with a
location unsurpassed among Inland cities of
the world, can never surpass the greatness of
tho living men who aro in charge of Us de
velopment. Why handicap It by putting
little men In power, who could not do great
things even lf.they desired?
It Is tho men wlio make a city. A grand city
cannot be expected from men of low Ideals. A
stream rles no higher than Its source. If you
are to have a good city you havo to have good,
tlean, upright, courageous men devoted to Its
aeyelopment. We don't gather figs from thistles
neither In nation nor In society or Government
I a?, Sr lU6"'", Bld Henry aeree. and that
should be the platform of every true citizen
Men are wanted who will not waste themselves
n pleasure, but who will devote themselves to
the happiness of the people. Let neither party,
sect, society nor church Interfere with tho
practical application of this tdea.-Ohlo State
WAR AND CUSTOMS
It Is curious to observe how the war news ts
linked up with social customs. Semendrla for
example, on the Servian frontier where there
has been heavy artillery Hrlng, has quite a con
vlv al, connection. The town is believed to stand
on the site of a noman setUement, and tradlUon
ha. it that the famous vineyards' which $
nudapest and Vienna with some of their Shest
table grapes were planted by the EmoSrer
Probus In the third century of th" ChNstfcn
era. Twelve centuries latej- the Servian Prince
George Ilrankovlch became lord of Tokay in
Hungary. He there planted vines from Semen,
dria, and from them the famous Tokav wln
takes lis name. London Chronicle
