With the country still buzzing over Germany's unsympathetic reply to the "antepenultimatum," the Monthly launches a little manifesto, "On the Guilt of Error," by A. K. McComb. The pacifists of today, we learn, are the successors of the opponents of religious persecution in the sixteenth century.

In the second inning, A got its other run when Fripp singled and took second on Whitney's error of Reed's hit. When Bothfeld missed Mahan's grounder Fripp scored...
