BISMARCK AND STANTON ENIOY. ~—ANEVEN BREAK 800 Fans Witness Two Unusually Thrilling Games on Local Diamond MERCER METROPOLIS IS STILL ONE TO THE GOOD Bismarck, 11-3; Stanton, 9-4 Eight hundred enthusiastic baseball fans, keyed to a high pitch, enjoying good baseball and fine baseball weath- er, witnessed erday afternoon of the fas d most exciting game that have y been pulled off in the new Athletic club grounds When the game wv ‘alled, at 2:30, it found the bleach filled, the grand stand crowded and every available inch of space back of the foul lines taken up with 's. It was a holiday crowd in a holiday mood, and under such’ in- spiration Bismarck and Stanton got away on the tops of their toes and they played baseball every minute of the thrilling doubleheader. The sixth, with Shanley’s smashing homer that drove in two men. ah of him, followed by a brief asce! upon the part of the visitors allowing two others to scamper home, saved the first game for Bismarck, although the game was actually won by two well earned runs in the eighth, up to which time the Champs’ margi was too small for comfort. Shanle homer was not only timely, but it was _ the first four-bagger driven out on the home field this season, and Tom had just preceded it with a three-sacker in the fifth.

These have required to be produced, to be tested | trained for using them. | Comparing the present war with | that of 1870 between Germany and France, General Robertson observed | that “in the 1870 war armies were | counted by the hundred thousand, and | at the battle of Gravelotte, where the | heaviest losses were incurred, the to- | tal casualties were only about 33,000 i meron both-sides, while for the whole | wi were less than half a million. “In the present war the killed alone can be counted by the million, while ; the total number of men engaged amounts to nearly 24,000,000. In fact, this war is not, as in the past, a war merely of opposing armies, but a war mother. She said man or woman in the empire who is} not doing, something either to help or | to hinder the winning of the war. .A man of great distinction told me the} other day that he estimated the weight | of purely military effort at only 25 per cent of the whole, the remaining 75 | per cent being, strictly speaking, of a nonmilitary nature, and made up of many elements—ngriculture, food, shipping, diplomacy, ete. I think he is probably not far wrong, and when peo- ple ask me, as they sometimes do, how the war is getting on, I feel inclined to reply, ‘Why ask me?

But while the employment of Japa- nese forcé as an argument with Rus- sia is quite unthinkable there has been} | a renewal of the suggestion that Japan’s magnificent army might yet | require to be employed in some way in! the European field.

The conception of this war as a war of the whole world has been strength- j ened very greatly since the beginning } of the present year. It is looked upon by the western powers now as every- body’s war, a war in which everybody has not only an interest but a duty to perform. That conception has affect- ed the attitude of remote and detached peoples to a striking extent. For ex- ample, among tribes in Africa which would not be presumed to know any- thing about what is happening in Eu- rope it is said that there is a very con- siderable interest and a desire to-help the western-ngtions. + __ Baby Drank Coal Oil and Died.
