(AHi HT DAY work 5 DONE ! NOW. I MUST nrepMte for the big. DINNK TONIGHT! I'VE 0T ,T0 MAKE A SPEECH TOO! I KttCAT TUATf I7i RICHMOND POPULAR WITH THLPLAYERS Many Applications for Jobs on Local K. I. O. Team Are Received. Th subject of players was diacusad at the meeting last evening of the Richmond baaeball association In the office of Ralph Husson, treasurer of the organisation. Secretary Peck broached the subject when he reported that he had received letters from several players who desired to sign with the local team for this season. Young Corbett, who played with the Starrs last season, has asked for a try out with the Richmond team this year and It Is likely he will be given a chance. Corbett is now engaged In the capacity of coach for Indiana University. A rather well-known pitcher, whose name the secretary does not care to disclose at present, will probably be landed. Other players are also being communicated with. Members of the association reported that they had sold about $400 worth of season tickets. The advertising committee was Instructed to commence work of soliciting advertising for the score cards and fence. It wai decided at last evening's meeting to secure several games before the K. I. O. League season opens. The Lilly Brews of Dayton probably will be the first attraction before the league schedule is opened. A meeting of the officers of the various clubs will be held at Cincinnati within a few. weeks In order to complete the schedule and perfect other arrangements. Frank Crump, president of the local club, will represent the Richmond organisation at the league meeting. Prof . Russell's Class, 7:30 tonight.

NOW. LET'S SFF AHFM WHAT WILL 1 SAY THAT WILL INTEREST MCRCHEl AND MANllMCTtiereTT OH! I KNOW! Ill TALK AM FfnwrtMirci veo l GREAT NAVAL HERO

Remains of John Paul Jones, Founder of American Navy, Lie Six Years in Anjiapolis, Neglected by Congress. National Disgrace.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. "Republics are ungrateful." ! The United States notoriously so. See how we treat our heroes. The sad spectacle of Dewey. The lamentable figure of Hobson. Both these men rendered, at a critical period, unexampled service to their country. Their compatriots toasted them to the echo. Their appearances created a frenzy. Then, suddenly, one day, just because Dewey did what every chivalrous or more or less interested American does, namely, deeded his property to bis wife, he was derided and ridiculed from one end of the land to the other. And because a silly woman kis3el the" unguarded Hobeon one day and it proved, later, to have been a feminine relative his name became a byword and a signal for guffaws and cat calls. Thirteen years elapses before the Maine is raised. During that time it is allowed to remain in tbe harbor of a foreign city a national reproach, buffeted by the waves, a derelict, some of those who manned it burled in its wreckage heroes, martyrs to their country. Whose is one of the great names in the history of our country? Who was it came to the rescue in a critical hour and blazoned us a path of naval glory? Who was It that was later honored by the French and Russian governments, being made a Rear Admiral by the latter, and who received a gold medal from the Congress? Was It not John Paul Jones, a citizen of this country? And where, now, are the bones of this celebrated patriot? In a hallway in the United States Naval Academy awaiting action by Congress to appropriate a Bum for a mortuary chapel. ' In 1905, General Horace Porter, United States ambassador to France, after great trouble and at considerable personal expense, discovered and identified the celebrated American's remains and they were brought to this country for honorable interment in one of the nation's battleships. That was in 1905. It is now 1912. And tbe body of the famous naval commander, who was the hero of one of the greatest battles ever fought on the ocean, which gave this country prestige among the nations and made its navy another name for efficiency, daring and courage, still lies in an obscure corner of the Academy at Annapolis waiting, the while politicians squabble over the wool schedule and play politics in the national Capitol. When you pin it right down to the line, what the "dooce" Is it that Congress does anyway. To get it to accomplish the things it was especially'expected to do when it convened a time or two ago. President Taft bad to call an extra session and keep it for months. Congress acts like a country school. If we can't play leap-frog over the desks and make faces at the teacher we won't study. We won't get our lessons. We'll sit and sulk and talk back and kill time. If the country were given a rest from the sessions of Congress for five or ten years we'd never know the difference. What do they do anyway? Make a tariff bill and then unmake it. Fuss over the rules of the house. Quibble about technicalities of expression. "Sass" each other back. "Does the gentleman from Alabama insinuate" "The gentleman from Ohio lays himself liable to" "Order, order," cries the Speaker, who may be Cannon or Clark or anybody else, pounding with his gaveL "I move we adjourn," shouts a gentleman from some puce else. Tben they all go home for Sunday after voting themselves mileage. What has prevented Congress from looking after a tew Important matters? Why don't John Kern, in Instance, get op In the Senate some day and suggest .that the national treasury be depleted to the extent of some thous ands to build a suitable monument to John Paul Jones, whose body' remains above ground while he, and some oth ers of his Ilk. make solemn resolutions to Investigate other senator's records. Why Is Kern put on all the senatorial bribery investigating committees? Wiy doesn't be say something about these celebrated charges he made against bis own party when they sent

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16,

ITS FROM WkV A MESSAGE FOR ME? OFFICE FJfrlM WHO CAN IT MR.JINCLES AN, BE FROM? nx IS AN REMAINS UNBURIED Shiveley to the Senate Instead of him? Kern is a joke. In the "Harper's Weekley" of a re cent date appeared some lines by Don C. Seitz called "The Burial of John Paul Jones" which are a sardonic reflection on our national manners: Under a stairway, back in the hall, Waiting to hear his country's call, Coffin'd in lead a bundle of bones Lies what is left of the great Paul Jones! Found in its tomb by the merest chance, Borne with acclaim from the land of France, Brought with the pride of a Nation' guest To sleep forever in splendid rest! Here in the school where his trade is taught, Where the lads learn how a battle'3 fought, And how a hero's reward is paid In promises broken ere they're made! First to the air he tossed the stars, The glorious flag with crimson bars Who steer'd the Ranger across the sea. Beating the British to make us free. Deep in his debt is this selfish land Which pays the bill with a grudging ' hand; So bear him back to the rough North Sea Where the chalk Cliffs rise against the lea. Red are the waves where the Richard sank Deep on the edge of the Dogger Bank: Here is a grave made ready to hand, Better and braver than one on land. A couple of shot, a canvas shroud, A little thunder of cannon loud: The thing is over; secure in Fame, He needs no stone to mark his name! Lucky the Captains who heard the hail And went to the depths in fight or gale. Never neglected back in a hall, AwaiUng in vain their country's call! The whole thing, in short, is a mis erable shame. And a national disgrace. General Porter labored long and without assistance to locate the body of our first celebrated naval commander. Found at last, in an Obscure spot in Paris, it is brought to this country "borne with acclaim from the land of France," as Mr. Seitz's verses say and then Congress does nothing lor seven years. This is just one of the straws that explain why the political winds blow the way they do. This is merely an instance of the assininity, the uselessness, tbe selfishness and the utter superfluity of the national legislature. It does nothing but draw its salary, make speeches, send out tons of "literature" nobody reads under the franking privilege, grand-stand and "stall." If Hitchcock, by tbe way, would cut out these same tons of "literatnrc" that nobody reads and seeds that nobody plants, that celebrated deficit might be cut down without making the magazines the goat. What the country needs is government carried on on business basi. But. in the meantime, something should be done toward honoring the celebrated dead. Why doesn't someone take np the matter of the monument and chapel for John Paul Jones? An Obliging Doctor. "Doctor. I've tried everything and 1 cant get to sleep," complained the voice at the other end of the telephone. "Can't yoa manage to do something for me?" "Tea." said the doctor kindly.

I'LL Pent UP THERE GRBOEST PLAT I TOLD TO flush SMerfoii By TERRY TURNER, Veteran Inflelder of the Cleveland "Naps," and Who Is Rated as One of the Smartest of the Old School Players. It seems to me sometimes as if every fellow thinks that the plays made by his own teammates are best. Maybe one sees them closer and appreciates them more because he knows exactly what was planned and sees exactly what comes off. And it my be that we are prejudiced and that the play that saves or wins a game for us looks better than the one the other fellow makes that beats us out of a game. I don't think that either Is the case with me, for Lajole made the play, and he makes his great plays so easily that a lot of times no one realizes how great they are without stopping to study out how mucn ground he covers. The play that I believe was the greatest he ever made was one that scarcely was noticed in the accounts of the game. Everyone said it was a fine bit of work, bnt to me It was wonTerry Turner, derfoi. Larry made It in a game against Detroit and it was one of tbe few times that I ever saw anyone outthlnk and outplay Ty Cobb. The game was In Detroit a couple of years ago. and Detroit had been beating us pretty regularly. As a matter of fact this plsy was made in a game that we lost but we lost it afterward and in spite of the play which ought to have ssved (us. There was none out and Cobb was on first base when Crawford gave a bit and run signal, and Cobb was tearing down half way to second base before Crawford cricked Into the ball and sent It hard toward right field. Larry had started to cover second base when the ball was hit and his back was to the balL He stopped like a shot, whirled and leaped back toward where the ball was going.

an easy thing tor nun to voa -uie can up to first and put out Crawford, but Lajoie. although he could not have seen Cobb, knew instinctively that Cobb had turned second tase and was sprinting for third, trying to take two bases on Crawford's out. or score In case the ball went past Lajole to right field. He didn't even hesitate or stop to look, but the instant the ball hit his hands he whirled and fired the ball to third base, and Cobb was caught by ten feet there, and so rapIdly that he didn't have a chance to throw himself for a twisting slide. Cobb was tagged out and Crawford was left standing flat-footed on first base. The next batter singled and only advanced Crawford to second, and we escaped without being scored against in that inning, whereas Detroit would have scored one run, and perhaps more. If Larry hadn't thought and acted so quickly. He figured the play in his head while making that stop, and he made the wonderful stop and throw so easily that most of the spectators and writers were rather of the opinion that Cobb had blundered than that Lajoie had. pulled off a wonderful stunt.
