QUIZ NATIONAL SPORTS.

The American people love sport about
as well as any other nation on the face
Of the globe, and one particular anuse-
ment does not prevail. We all love
sport from the most fastidious down to
the poker player. But have you ever
noticed how some people will condemn
one innocent amusement while they
indulge in another? For instance, you
will talk to man who thinks base ball
players ought to be in Jail. and you will
generally find this individual occupy
ing a prominent position at horse race
or shooting match. You will find an
other curious being who thinks 1t Is
waste of time to try the speed Of horses,
and he will sit down at some pond and
fish all day without getting bite. The
next fellow will say that walking
matches are brutal, and he will walk
twenty miles day over the toughest
country he can find to shoot little
squirrel Another will object to boat
rowing and billiards, while he is the
best whist player in town. The fact OF
the matter is, that We are a nation that
loves sport, and if any man has his par
ticular game or way of enjoying HIM
self, he should not condemn his friends,
who happen to differ. with him. If
some fellow wants to get his nose ex-
tended all over his face by striking at
sand bags, that's his business; if an
other wants to wear out his shoes play
ing base ball, that's his business; and,
If We indulge innocently in any sport,
that's our business, and those who are
continually trying to show the evil OF
some particular sport only show their
own weakness to overcome some little
temptation connected with it, or have
desire to make themselves obnoxious.
We believe in sport, and plenty Of it,
too, just so long a. it does not interfere
with our business. it is better for
man to enjoy himself than to sit down
and fade away like the paper on the
wall of kitchen. But "there is time
to laugh and time to cry" and time
for sport and time for business, and
we must be the judges. You will gen.
orally find that the person who is con-
tinually waging war against some inno-
cent amusement crank, who would
not spend ten cents for little sport if
he knew it would cure his govt or dys-
pepsia. We believe that it is right to
encourage all sports that are honorable,
and all sports are honorable unless the
indulgers themselves make them dis
honorable. Nothing in this world is
perfect, and simply because some men
bet their money on these sports, that is
not criterion that the pleasure in itself
is evil. The average American will
work and attend to his business, but
the minute you try to cage him after
business hours, that minute will you
find that you are among the wrong
class of people. They will not he

" ESTERN JUSTICE.

Western tourists will not be wholly
charmed with the report of a stage rob-
berry in Montana. A considerable gap
still remains between the two ends of
the Northern Pacific railroad in that
Territory, and across it trave'ers be-
tween eastern and western points must
pass in stage coaches. 1t appears that
the stage was attacked, recently, near
Boulder Mountains, and that the eight
passengers were robbed of all they pos
sessions, while the treasure box was also
taken away. Offenses OF this kind have
been so infrequent of late that when
they do occur they make something of
a sensation. The despoiled passengers,

The REGISTER must assume that
all the people who oppose fireersckers
and fireworks on July fourth will leave
the city, and that those who believe in
the traditional JOHN ADAMS way ofcel-
ebrating Independence Day will stay in
it. Since, therefore, no annoyance will
be given 10y Young and Old America
intent upon patriotic noise. THE REG
IsTER thinks that the youthful mind
should be allowed to express its joy with
3 big noise.
Noise is natures method of empha-
sizing her delight. When the surf
dances, when winds gambol i'll forests,
when rain in drenching showers de-
lights the grass, when the lightning
plays and when earthquakes make
sport with cities Nature always pro-
duces huzzaing noise.

AGRACEFUL SEQUEL.

We often hear, nowadays, of acts of
courtesy passing between men who,
during the civil war, were savagely

sword and pistol, as trophies, attesting
personal proves. Vivid are the incl
dents of that deadly strife these relics
recall, but let it be hoped that, like
ncle TOHN'S "reminiscences, all rancDr
has been eliminated. 1t often happens
that there comes Il graceful sequel to
these martial chronicles. Some day
the weapon has suddenly disappeared,
and then it comes out that the captor of
this bit of steel has sentimental turn,
and he tells how for many year he
has been trying to find out who might
he the relatives of the man who, as a
brave soldier, lost his life on the battle
field, and that, having discovered to
whom the sword belonged, it has been
sent to those who had the better right
to it. And then the grace of this act
makes a pleasant conclusion to what
must ever remain as one of the most
treasured of family annals. All this is
more than pleasantly recalled when we
learn that on the Fourth of July next
the cadets OF the Virginia Military In
stitute will visit New York, and will re-
store to the city flag which once be-
longed to the Sixteenth New York In.
fantry, and was captured in one of the
most terrible battles of the war by
RossER'S Brigade. There Is something
very touching in an incident of this
character. 1t helps more than anything
else to make us forgive each others
errors. 1t cements closer together
North and South, for it appeals to the
noblest sentiment man possesses.
