N COOLIDGE, Governor
publican candidate for Vices
President. In the past a nomi-
nation for this office has been fre-
quently used as a .means of side-
tracking a candidate for the more im-
portant polition, who is not approved
by the thrty bosses. It was thus with
Roosevelt lirhen he was made McKin-
ley's running mate. On other occa-
sions the candidate is chosen becalm
-he has great wealth and to induce
him to "dig deep." Sometimes It is a
reward for long service to the party.
there is always in mind the neces-
sity of nominating an Easterner for
the Vice -Presidency if thel Presiden-
tial nominee is a Westerner. But sel-
dom have the merits of the ca.ndidate,
his fitness to become President should
death remove the Chief Magistrate
before hie term of office has expired,
had much to do with the case. Calvin
Coolidge is an exception. He is not
a weathy Man, He is not quite a
Roosevelt, He had nbt strength
enough to force himself upon the
bosses whO controlled the Chicago
convention. But he will wird
strength to the ticket. There is ilttte
question that he Is of larger calibre
than Senator Harding.
He is an American of several gen-
orations'- standing. The first Amer-
ican Coolidge landed on this contin-
ent only twenty years after, the May-
flower's voyage, the family settling
in- Massachusetts. later the Caliin
Coolidge branch moved to Vermont
and in Vermont the future Governor
of Masschusetts was born. His father
was a, fanner and also kept a general
store. Money:vino scarce, and for a
long time it was doubtful if Calvin
would be able to have any better edu-
cation than the average farm hand.
He toiled on the farm and eventually

.father could spare, enabled him to en-
ter Amherst College, some years later

than the average freshman. Prom the
first he showed herself an exceptional
student, a hard worker with an orig-
inal, inquiring. mind. Iil his senior
year he won a gold medal offered for
the best essay on the principles of
the War of Independence, the com-
petition being open to undergrad-
uates of all colleges. In 1895 he
graduated with high honors and two
years later moved to Northampton,
Mass., and began the practice of law.
Whether he had natural taste for
polities or whether his environment
directed him to public life is uncer-
tain. The fact is, however, that the
legal firm of which he was a junior
had a great gift for office seeking,
one of the senior members being the
mayor of the town and another the
district attorney. After two years,
Coolidge became an alderman', and
the following year became city solici-
tor. In 1907 he was..elected to the
State Legislature. His career is un-
usual in that he never has been de-
feated in an election. He was twice
Mayor of Northampton, twice a mem-
ber of the State Legislature, three
times Lieutena.nt-Governor and t WIC°
Governor. This fact is all the more
remarkable because Coolidge, accord-
ing. to the experts, has violated every
rule of practical polilies._
He has the political disadvantage
ofbeing without a .nickname. His
Intimate friends call him "Cal," but
that .is as far as they go, He is no-
body's "old bean" or "old egg." He
is incapable of arousing such a
frenzy of affection as Roosevelt in-
spired or even as 'Bryan can com-
mand. Temperamentally he is more
of the Wilson type, rather reserved.
He is not an orator, especially in the
old-fashioned sense of the word, but
he has a gift of humor, and also the
rare faculty of being able to express
himself with admirable clarity in a
very few words.
Coolidge was unknown outside his
own state until last fall when an op-
portunity was given him to show his
mettle. Indeed, it is because of what
happened in Boston last fall- that he
was chosen at Chicago. The police-
men in Boston, following the baneful
example of the police in Toronto and
London, went on strike. They had
the Support of organized labor, which
is particularly strong in Massachu-
setts, and they had most of the -poli-
ticians scared. Coolidge, as governor
of the state, stepped in and provided
Boston with the police protection it
could not furnish itself. He announc-
ed that the policeman who ,went on
strike automatically resigned and
would not be reappointed. The fight
was bitter, but Coolidge won out and
attained such sudden ' fame as was
thrust on Ole Hanson in Seattle. He
won the fight, too, for every other
American city, for slime then there

Last year the "Babe" made 29 'widely, spoke several languages and
had a valuable gift , of guiding a
conversation along lines that nught
prove profitable by reason of an
unguarded remark, She dressed ex-
pensively, lived at the most fasion-
able Of New. York hotels, spent her
money freely, and was by no means
difficult to become acquainted with.
Madame Victoria, of course, was
not expected to go out and -with her
own pudgy hands plant a bomb or
wreck a ship. Her 'field was chiefly
literary. She corresponded regu-
larly with German agents in the
United States and in other foreign
,countries and also with the German
Foreign Office. She was handsomely
equipped and upholstered for this
duty, for she bad, perhaps, the most
elaborate outfit of secret codes, inks
and other haberdashery that ever fell
into the hands of the secret service
mensin the United States.' Most of
her messages were written in secret
codes and also in secret inks, so that
if the writing were discovered the
words would he meaningless unless
the- cipher too was read, but as there
is no cipher that eannot be solved
if enough attention is given to it
and enough knowledge brought t�
the task, so it happned that the
madaine's most secret communica-
tions have found their. way into the
pages of the newspapers.
The secret ink she used was given
to her at the Berlin Chemical Insti-
tute and was carried in two silk
scarves or mufflers. These articles
had been saturated in the invisible
fluid, and when the spy wished to
have some ink she had only to soak
a piece of one of the 'scarves and
the fluid would appear. Madame
would then write what appeared to
be an ordinary letter in ordinary ink,
and later on write the hidden mes-
sage with the invisible ink. From
time to time the inks were ehanged
and also the cheraidal preparations
which were necessary to develop the
writing. The codes also were alter-
ed, and it would seem that the Ger-
mans had done all that the utmost
care could suggest to make absolute-
ly certain that there would be no
damaging leaks: -
Stip another precaution taken by
those Who,desired to communicate
with her ,'Ittia to address letters, in
triplicate, arid somethnes even in
quadruplicate. Each letter would
be mailed to the spy amder a differ-
ent name at a different address for
she changed. both her. hotel and her
name quite frequently. If she re-
ceived the letter marked No. 3, and
not letters marked 1 and 2, she
would come to the not unreasonable
conclusion that Nos. 1 and 2 had
been tampered with, and that the
addresses to which they had been
directed were no longer safe. Be-
fore leaving Berlin she had memor-
ized one secret _code, and this from
to time was varied. In many
cases the.ordinary A B C code was
used with changes agreed upon
among the -conspirators. The ad-
vantage of using this code was that
the code books are to be found in
banks and ether places of business
and messages could be promptly de-
coded. Before 'madame was appre-
hended, she found it almost impos-
sible to get money from Berlin and
had to depend upon German Amer-
ican patriots to supply her with
funds. Her last patriotic angel gave
•her $1,000 a month, but after she
had enjoyel-this bomb rnoney for a
short time, the detectives rounded
her up and she was interned.

1 home runs, more than had. ever been
made before. This. year he has made
44 up, to date, and he is likely, as
they say, do bust anther any min-
-ate. In .faet, it is morally certain
that he will make 54 before the sea-
son ends, and it is quite within the
bounds of passibility that he will
rnak,e twice ads many as he made last
year. This one man is making more
home rune than. many of the whole
teams in the, major leaguew When
he began to "hit 'em a mile" early
in the season, critics said that the
ballhe pounded were livelier than
before and that on. this account he
wart making an amazing record.
But the other players have a chance
to lean against the same balls, and
as remarked, there are whole teams
of them who cannot make as many
home runs as this lone "Babe."
Members of the famous Orioles, in-
ducting -such stars as Joe Kelley,
Wilbur Robinson, John McGaw, and
Hughey Jennings, all noted .gures
in baseball, adMit that Ruth is the
greatest batter, of all time.
This ought to settle all disputes.
It is the first time the Orioles have
ever agreed to hand any champion-
ship to someone who was never an
Oriole. Their former arguments
have always raged found the per-
sonality of the Oriole who was the
'greatest player and the noblest km-.
man, being in history. The fact that
Babe Ruth was born in Baltimore
ma.y have something to do with this
eemarkable eoncession on the part
of, the old. Orioles. Aleo he played
on the Orioles of the present gen-
eration, andl most of our readers
who go to baseball games have seen
the redoubtable "Babe,". before he
was so famous,. playing against our
local heroes at ' the , Island. Park.
-How he entered on this world is not
quite clear. Some say he was a
foundling, and that he was named
by the Christian Brothers, M whose
school at Baltimore he was brought
up. Mr. Ruth himself, in some re-
cent autobiographical sketches, does
not confirm this impression. In fact,
he is a good deal more vague on this
point than he is about meeting the,
baseball on the nosed
Babe Ruth was sold to the Boston
Redl Sox two or three years ago,
the purchaser being a former citi-
zen, of Toronto, to wit, Ed. Barrow.
With Barrow he broke the world's
record for home runs, and when an
effort was made to have him sign
a contract for the present year, he
declined. Therefore, the rightto
sign. him was sold to two New York
gentlemen, -Messrs. Ruppert and
Roston, the owners of the New York
Yankees. How much money Babe
is getting we know not, nor would
we dim his fame by mentioning it
if we did. Certainly it is not nearly
enough, although it satisfies the
"Babe," a man of reasonable temper-
ament and modest tastes. His owners
have made a small 'fortune out of
Babe Ruth, for he has become the
greatest attraction in baseball, thous-
ands of people turnin6 ' out every
day he plays in the hope of seeing
him make a heme nth. He is bound
to disappoint sometimes, but never-
theless, though he was a world
beater last year, he has done better
this year than most people expected.
Everybocily who knows, much about
athletics knows that very often a
real star on a team is a detriment
to that team. Too often. he wishes to
reduce his fellow players to the
status of scene shifters or "supes"
while he revels in the central glory.
This cannot be said of Itabe Ruth.
He is not jealous. He will not sacri-
fice a point for his team in. order
to secure a point for himself. On this
account it has been said that besides
being the greatest of b'aeters he is
the most useful playir a baseball
team ever had. This may be an ex-
aggeration; but if we say he is
the most profitable player, the opin-
ion will be confirmed. Ruth is a
baseball marvel because; he is a phy-
sical giant, and because he lias a
sense of "timing" that never can be
taught; that must be born in .a man
and without which he never can be-
come a Ray, a Wilde, a Tilden or a
Ruth. He loves baseball. He is not
unduly in love with himself That he
is a clean liver is proved by his
record.
MADAME VICTORIA, THE
GERMAN SPYETTE
Mme. Victoria, who died in New
York a few days ago, was the best
known femaia. spy in the United
States; and: is said to have been the
only woman despatchedi to that
country by the German Foreign Of-
fice. She was active enough to
get herself arrested and interned
and no doubt she played; a part in
the destruction of many of the
munition factories and 'ships that
were carrying supplies to the Allies,
but we cannot find in a review of her
career that she accomplished any-
thing of importance off her own bat.
She wrote • letters in • invisible ink
and spent large sums ofmoney in
esciarm g information. Perhaps
some of the latter was ilseful to the

CURIOUS CAREER OF MARK
HOPKIN'S MONEY --
Arthur T. Walker, formerly an On-
tario school teacher, 'got his name in
most of the newspapers in the United
States and Canada a few days ago
when it was announced that he had
been made the chief heir of the late
Edward F. Searles, by whom he had
been employed for some years. It
was said that he had inherited $50,-
000,000, hut the probability is that
the fortune is much less than this..
People began to ask who was this
Searles. and where had he accumu-
lated all the meney that he left to a
humble clerk, and when the story was
.told it was a remarkable one. The
last chapter of the Searles' romance
is yet to be written, for his nephew,
Victor Searles, an artist of some
talent, who was cut off with a beg-
garly ,$250,000, threatens to contest
-the will in an effort to prove that his
uncle was of unsound mind. If he
goes to law, and fails to succeed, he
will forfeit the quarter of a million,
and our own idea is that he ought to
forfeit it, for Mr. Victor Searles is
fortunate in inheriting a quarter of a
million dollars which he never earn-
ed, and no dollar of which his uncle
earned. The money is not really
Searles' money at all. It is Hop-
kins' money.
Edward F. Searles was a New
Englander by birth, and had hard.
hoeing in his ydunger days. About
his chief asset was a fine presence
and a highly dignified exterior. He
had nice taste also, and an ear for
musie, which probably explains why
he did not enlist in the Civil War,
for which he was highly eligible but
moved to another town and began
to teach music. Eventually be adopt-
ed the profession of interior decora-
tor, ote as his enemies said, he got
a job as a paper hanger. In the pur-
suit of this calling he went to San
Francisco. The West was still
rather crude in those days, and Mr.
Searles' dignified appearance/smooth
manners and good looks brotight him
cuetomers. 'One of them was Mrs.
Mark Hopkins, widow of Mark
Hopkins, one of the original Wars,
who tad laid the foundation of his
fortunes by a -partnership with Col-
lis P. Huntington in the hardware
business. Mark left many millions
to his widow when he passed on,no
children surviving. At the time
when Mr. Searles became acquainted
with Mrs. Hopkins she was employed
in the decoration of her home on
Nob Hill. Mr. Searles gave her
tactful advice, and as time went on
established himself as a friend.
In fact, Mrs. Hopkins became his
sole customer. Having exhausted
the decorative possibilities of Nob
Hill, Mr. Searles was commissioned

-Money in Great Barrington. All this
time the affections of Mrs. Hopkins,
toward Mr. Searles, and his dignified
emotions were showing signs of be-
ing not wholly indifferent to Mrs.
Hopkins. When it became plain to
her that this was no mere boy and
girl ronumee she opened her heart
to Mr. Searles, and after considera-
tion he accepted her. Later on she
changed her mind, but soon after-
ward his ardent pleadings melted her
heart completely, and they were
married. Mr. Searles at that time
was 46 years old.
They lived together happily for a
short period and then Mrs. Searles
died, leaving- her whole fortune to
her husband. He was not permitted
to enjoy it undistributed, but was -im-
mediately attacked in the courts by
Timothy Nolan Hopkins, nephew of
the deceased Mark, who declared
that. Searles had unduly influenced
his bride. The matter was settled
out of court, Mr, Hopkins receiving
a couple ed million, so it is said, and
Mr. Searles keeping the remainder.
The lawsuit, however, had embitter-
ed him, for it had dragged into pub-
licity many details that he would
rather, have kept secret. He admit-
ted that when he married Mrs. Hop-
kins, money had something to do
with his decision, hut declared that
the dominant factor was love. The
diary Mrs. Searles kept during
her honeymoon and after, was pro-
