HATEVER be the outcome of the strained diplomatic rela-| tions between organized baseball and the fraternity of ball . playera, whether there be a home run strike or no strike at | all, the controversy itself is opportune and interesting. It falls in| > timely with a popular discontent agaiftet almost everything in the | * daseball situation except the personality of the men engaged in it. | Great may be the advantages of highly organized professional | * ‘baseball, but it is clearly evident the managers have carried regulation * and domination to a point where attacks from without and revolts = within are inevitable. Loe This does not imply condemnation of the managers nor yet dis- * approval of the revolt. It means only that America is too big, the energies of its youth are too exuberant for monopoly organization to control any line of notable activity. The more firmly an organization is knit together, the more forcible is the opposition and the more explosive the discontent. Those on the outside wish to get in. Those . within wish to get out. The skyecraper built of steel may stand, but * any skyscraper structure in sport, business or politics fabricated of éuch unstable elements as those of human nature, is bound to some day explode, blow up and burst by the irresistible expansivencss of its | — own boom. ! LET WELL ENOUGH ALONE. | N the same day with the report of the promptness with which | the Workmen’s Compensation Commission is settling the claims before it, saving both the worry and the expense of litigation, came an announcement that the State Federation of Labor | protests against an alleged effort of employers to force employees to _ undergo physical examination as to their fitness for work, and also to discriminate against the employment of married men. It is further} alleged that a scheme ia in preparation to amend the compensation 3 Jaw out of existence at the next session of the Legislature, yns =: These announcements are the more serious because they are in Mine with one of our marked characteristic as a people.

RUBBING IT IN. , EST passengers on Coney Island travel should forget on Monday what was taught on Sunday, the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com- pany enforces the lesson by so arranging or deranging the | © service that every hour is rush hour and every trip a crowded one. } ‘This fact; of which all passengers have personal cognizance, was verified lye report in The Evening World of yesterday of a count made of the « mumber of care in the trains of the Fulton street line and the number | of passengers standing in many of the cars between 10.29 and 11.21 PA.

Incidentally, he was the great-great-great-great-great-grandeon of Pocahontas. He was John Randolph of Roanoke, Virginia’s magic | orator and one of America’s most famous etatesmem in a day | when famous statesmen were many. She was Maria Ward, a reigning belle of Virginia, glorioudy beautiful | and an heiress. They were engaged. Randolph, with his queer, lathlike | figure and his queer, shrill voice and his million eccentricities, was never- | theless magnetic enough to win Maria away from a score of handsomer and more norma! men. On the narrow sidewalk in front of Maria’s home one day he chanced to meet one of these disappolated wooers. The latter, trying to pick a quarrel, stood in the middle of the walk and growled: “L never turn out of my way for a conceited puppy!” “I do,” squeaked Randolph, stepping aside with mock courtesy. Maria accepted Randolph's heart, and for a short while they were happy enough in their engagement. Then he went North to Philadelphts to continue his law studies—a course he had begun at Columbia, in New York—and stayed away from Maria for some time, When he came back to Virginia he found that PPAAAALADL AAA 3) absence had not made the girl's heart grow fonder of A Mysterious 3 somebody else, She still cared for hin, Neverthe- Quarrel. less, very soon afterward the engagement was broken. Several possible causes for this have been guessed at, According to one historian: ! “Unpublished letters suggest an entanglement, if not indeed a marriage, in Philadelphia as the explanation of the rupture of his engagement with the famous beauty, whose later marriage to his cousin completed the tragedy of Randolph's private life." Others say that this cousin, Peyton Randolph, cut him out. Others, that Maria was as disgusted by his eccentrialties as she was dazzled by his brilliancy, The more authentic—in fact the probably true—reason need not be touched on here. At all events, one day John Randolph rode to Marin's home, tied his horse to a post and entered the house. He was closeted alone with Maria in the drawing-room for a half hour, At the end of that time he dashed, out of the house, muttering and ghastly pale, leaped to the back of his horse, and drove his spurs into the animal's sides, But, as he had neglecte to untie the horse before monnting, his melodramatic departure was changed’ ‘into farce-comedy, the fastened horse capering wildly around the hitching® post, to the grinning delight of several windowfuis of onlookers. The brenking of his engasement soured Randolph's whole future, It set him to drinking and It intensified all his eccentricities. Incidentally, it drove eaeaaamanaatl him into public life, where he rose like a meteor to Congress and to the Senate, and where he insulted and quarrelled with any one within reach, On every President of the United Stites, for exqmple, til the day of bis aked his embittered tem Here js the lst: hington, he arose, glass nington Be he d-—~l!" dent" or in any wey except ; ching letters.
