Pershing he was the fourth man to hold that coveted title in the army of | the United States. The other three were Grant, Saeridan and Sherman. A Captain at 40 As late as the time of the Russia- | Japanese war in 1904, Pershing, over 40 still was a captain in the regular | army. His associates say he never grumbled, but always kept plugging at his job, Reams and reams have} been written about how he took a! prominent part in the pacification of! the Phillipine islands and how Presi-| dent Roosevelt made him a brigadier! general jumping him over the heads of exactly 862 other men who were senior to him on the service roll. When Pershing took the punitive expedition to Mexico after the bandit Villa, he became the only living of- ficer in the American army who had commanded any body of troops so large as a brigade in anything ap- proaching action. It is true that in late General Funston commanded more than a brigade on the Vera Cruz expedition but Funston’s troops never | got into action Was in Indian Wars. From the time Pershing graduated from West Point in 186 he had his full share of active and valuable ser- vice in the army. Like his class- mates he immediately was plunged into the Indian wars. He entered a campaign against the great Apache chief Geronimo who for many years had kept the great southwestern coun- try almost closed to immigration by hig skill and bravery. It was in those campaigns that many of young Amer- ican army officers received that spe- cial training evolved in combat with the wily savages which proved of pe- the German drives of 1918 of Oxford when the Britis of doughboys. n appearance General Pershing hasn’ 1 mu ne the dav of the Villa expedition, when as brigadier general he rode into Mexico (see the picture above on horse).

It is recorded cfficially of Persh-! ing that the beginning of his career, for instance, he was complimented by General Miles, his commander-in-chief in the Geronimo campaigns, for “marching his troop, with pack train, over rought country, 140 miles in 46 hours, bringing in every animal and man in good condition.” Until he reached command rank Pershing al- ways was a cavalry officer and the| records of the War Department show more than one honorable mention for his conduct during his ten year’s ser- vice.in. the Department of Arizona. In the Spanish War as an officer of the Tenth Cavalry he was promoted for gallantry at the battle of El Caney to be a major in the Volunteer army and after a short detail in Washing- ton in the Bureau of Insular Affairs was sent out to the Philippines as adjutant general of the Department of Mindanao and Jolo. That was the turning point in Persh- ing’s career. He began to take his profession of arms more seriously and to display the powers of concentration ' upon difficult problems that stood him in good stead in the great campaigns that were to follow in Burpe. At- tracted by his earnestness and sol- dierly qualities, General Leonard Wood, who was his superior officer at the time, selected Pershing to or- ganize and conduct a campaign against the Moros who for centuries had suc- cessfully resisted all attempts of the Spanish army to subjugate them. | Up to that point something of a parallel may be found int”he careers fo Wood and Pershing. Each had made brilliant reputations as Indian fighters and each had been picked by President Roosevelt for extraordinary promotion because of their high prom- ise of military ability. Roosevelt had made Wood a brigadier general in 1901 and he made Pershing, then a captain, a brigadier general in 1906 to the absolute consternation of the old line of the army because it in- volved the “jumping” of both officers over many hundreds of their seniors. Bismarck was defeated yesterday af- ternoon in the great American pas- time in a torrid contest by the Wilton coalers to the tune of 8 to 6 and one umpire. It was another example of that well of, “If.” “If” Roy had pitched a little tighter : ball, we would have won. “If” Wilton’s hurler had fewer strikeouts to his credit, we would have won. “If” Bismarck’s sluggers had spread} out their slugging beyond one inning, ve would have won. “Te” the ump had not made such a rotten decision on Peoples in the ninth, we Would have won. Rut it was a good game anyway, end the largest crowd that h. et appear- ed witnessed the slugfest. Lots of frenzied fans right up to the last out. And then the frenzied fans tried. to! get the frenzied umpire, but he fl vered away before any material dam- age was done. That was the closest decision of the day. Wilton put the game on ice in the first inning—for one inning. Singles by T. Manley, Flynn, Cunningham and Chicosky’s life on Pagit’s error at first produced three runs. The second inning found in the lead. Peoples got a pas rst, stole second and pulled up at third. When Snider singled over second, Yeoples scored. Nordlund struck out, and Roberts bunted down third base line, Snider taking third and Wilton’s| pitcher glaring at the ball not know- ing what to do with it. Snide# scored on a passed ball, Roberts toking third: Pagit was also passed and stole sec oud. Rockford bunted, Roberts scor- ing. Pagit was caught between third and home and scored when Flynn hit him in the back with the ball, Molly reaching second during the insurrec- tion. Roy doubled to center, Rockford scoring. Hanson singled to center, Roy taking third. Churchill fouled to first for the second out, Hanson stealing second, Peoples up for the second time in this inning was given another base on balls filling the bags, Snider tried his best to knock the ball out of the HANDS OF WILTON’S PITCHER DEFEAT AT y succeeded in flying to In the third, Wilton climbed back into the lead. Donnell flied to Snider, who dropped the ball when Nordlund ran into him. Cunningham flied to; Nordlund. Chico: singled to center. gled to right, Donnell and \s scoring. H. Manley singled to left. W.

T, Manley flied to he pitcher’s box and Pagit, Rockford d Roy all started after the ball and then decided to let the other fellow doj it with the result, that no one did it. . Manley, thinking that the “million dollar infield” had been misnamed, |tried to sneak home, but Roy recov- ering from the tempor: jhurled the ball to Hanson who gently {tapped Manley before he reached the plate, Four runs. Bismarck got another marker in the seventh when Wilton’s shortstop drop- jbed Hanson’s hard fly and Churchill doubled to center, scoring Bismarck’s catcher, Then Cunningham tightened up and struck out Peoples, Snider and Nordlund in succession. Churchill never aveled faster in his life than he did when he made | that» two-bagger. His shoe laces were smoking hotl For a faster mgn ft would have been a triple. Wilton‘s run in the eighth was made on Bushar ingle to right, T. Man- I double s ing Bushard. Snider made a wonderful catch of W. Manley’s hard fly in this inning, catching it in jone hand while running backward. | dlud also pulled one out of the ies in the eighth when he caught lynn’s tentative homer. The second stanza, \ inte! 1 of the ninth was sting. Hanson Was an easy out on fly to W. Manley. Churchill then igled to left. But Churchill’s shoe- laces were still smoking from the hard iun they made previously and Ro- lerts Was put in to run for the heavy- weight, However, Wilton thought that was a little bit too easy and insisted | that People should be the one to run, and not Frankie. Some judgment, that. Peoples stole second and had to slide jinto the bag to make it. Boehm pinched hit for Peoples and was‘ safe on a hit to third, Peoples being out on a throw to second. The decision was — the old time raspberry. Snider then flied to center, who dropped the ball, Boehm reaching third, but Nordlund culy hit the pellet as far as. short and was an eagy out at first. Hanson made good, only two men trying to ‘steal second while eight {Colts pilfered the keystone sack. Snider covered the outfield in fine shape. Cunningham had‘ eleven strike-outs and five bases on-balls. Nothing con- sistent about that. . Pagit (2), Peoples (2), Roberts, Sni- der, W, Manley, Chicosky.
