SUNDAY RECREATION.

u
The playing of baseball in Baltimore on
Sunday has caused an interesting discus
aion in which Cardinal Gibbons has taken
part. His view is that the Christian Sunday
is not to be confounded with the
Jewish or even with the Puritan
Sabbath. 1t preacribes the golden mean be-
tween rigid Sabbatarianism on the one hand
and lax indulgence on the other. There is
little doubt that the revulsion in public SEN
timent from rigorous to loose observance
of the Lords Day can be ascribed to the sin-
cere but misguided zeal of the Puritans, who
confeuuded the Christian Sunday with the
Jewish Sabbath. and imposed restraints on
the people which were repulsive to Christian
freedom, and which were not warranted by
the gospel dispensation. The Lords Day to
the Christian heart is always a day of joy.
Bnt while the good Cardinal depre-
oates the closing of art galleries,
libraries, etc., on Sunday, and thinks that
any recreation that will contribute to the
physical, mental and moral benefit and en-
joyment of the masses should be encouraged,
he thinks that base ball is game that is in
conflict with the quiet deoorum and tram
guilty that should characterize the obssrv-
ance of the Lords Day, aud is too violent
an exercise to be conducive of such harmony.
But whatever may be the abuses arising from
Sunday base ball, he regards the base ball
players and observers of the game as far less
reprehensible than those who would utter
from the pulpit on the Lords day unchar.
liable statements about their neighbo
This is liberal enough. The Catholic
Church has always looked upon the "Sab-
bath" as made for man.

TWO RKFORWERs.

There are evidently two kinds of reform.
During Cleveland's administration we used
to hear a great deal about reform. One of
in the Patent Office. He appointed as COM
missioner of patents Montgomery, who had
no experience of the work or knowledge of
Its requirements. He appointed as assista mt
commissioner the brother of Democratic
Senator, whose qualifications were chiefly, II
not solely, political. The places which did
not require competitive examinations were
filed with Democratic politicians, and many
f these, having first been appointed as
skilled lsborers, were promoted to. .clerkships
by means of special examinations. The SER
vice, being thus tainted with spoils at the
Efficiency"
When President Harrison began to look
about him after taking Office he became con.
WINGED that he could improve on the reform
in the Patent Office made by Cleveland. He
was solicited to appoint men for partisan
reasons, but declined, and asked the lawyers
practicing in patent eases to recommend q
thoroughly qualified person. They recoms
msnded, and the president appointed Mr..
Mitchell of Connecticut. The Office of as
sistant commissioner was filled by promot.
ing one of the chief examiners. The Office
has been reorgsnized, the principles of civil
service reform have been strictly observed,
and there has been decided improve
ment in the efficiency of the Office
since the appointment of the
present commissioner. A committee of the
national civil service reform league says: In
the history Of this Office We see not only how
beneficial the civil service system has been in
giving increased efficiency In this important
Office, to the great advantage of the general
public, but also how 1t is possible, notwith-
standing the civil service law, for head of q
bureau who is not in sympathy with the
purposes of that law to 60 very far toward
demoralizing the bureau. This was done by
dlling the places above and below those GOV.
cred by law with political favorites, and by

the population at !, 1921, ,227. In 1860 the real
estate was assessed at 1904, ,551, 74o: personal
estate, $147, ,14s. .30S, total of $451, 200, ,04S.
The population at that time was sos, ,651,
making the average wealth per capita $500.
So that in thirty years, while the population
has only doubled, real estate values have been
multiplied by four and half and real and
personal values by almost three.
Kate Field has made the important dis.
covsry that George Washington not only
drank Intoxicating liquor himself, but drew
up an agreement with his gardener, Philip
Batter, arranging for occasional bursts of in
temperance on the part of the able gardener,
who seems to have been a favorits with
Washington. She says: "washington
doubtless valued Batter and wanted to keep
him sober. With this aim in view, the
agreement allowed Batter q dram in the
morning and drink of grog at dinner and
at noon.' Then Washington promised to
give Batter - at Christmas with which to
be drunk four days and four nights;' '$2 q.
Easter to effect the same purpose and Sc at
Whitsuntide to be drunk two days'"
If this thing keeps on, said map printes
the other day, "ws'll all have to go into
bankruptcy. We hadn't got our United
States maps fixed up with North and South
Dakota before the Brazil revolution knocked
South America endwise, and now Wyoming
and Idaho are turned into States. Africa has
to be fixed over every six months, and the
latest and most serious change of all is In
this German-English arrangement to knock
out Heligolaud from the British empire.
That isn't big change, but it's plenty big
enough to spoil all our maps of Europe. 1t
would almost pay the mapmakers of the
world to chip in and buy the nasty little
island in order to make a present of 1t to
England, and save the expense of getting up
new maps of Europe"

NOVELTIES IN NAMES.
Remarkable How Little Invention 10

at is remarkable how little invention peo-
pie display In selecting names. A hundred
generations Of Johns serve only to increase
the number of him In each new freshet OF
human beings," says q writer In the Detroit
Free Press. ''Novelists struggle to give their
characters new names unhesrd of before.
Occasionally one hits the popular fancy and
becomes the heritage OF our race. Now,
nothing could be easier than diversity in
Names and entire new ones at that.
"By change in syllables of letters any
common name becomes mine from which
new names are easily coined A whole FAM
lily might be named from Edgar, and nicely
named, too.
"Thus Edgar becomes Cared, Erdag, Err
gai, Degra, which would mark the boys in-
de,ibly, and Gerds, Regds, Redga would
label the girls for all time.
'sIf the mothers name were Edna, q slight
change In the order of letters and her sons
become Dane, Dean, Ande, Adne, Enad, and
her daughters Enda, Aued, Made, Media.
Different vowel sounds give wide opportuni-
ties for taste in pronunciation.

His successful brother and rival becomes
wined. With the aid of the sstrologer,
Wendi, and the verbose lawyer, Winde, he
might ALLEVIATE and divorce his successful
brothers wife, Enwid, and marrying the
fair devorcee, could name two of his heirs
very appropriately Wedin and Inwed. A
poor relation could pose as Newdi, while
Nedwi, Denwi, Diwen and host more de-
rived from Edwin could furnish the half
tints of the tale.
"Two thousand years of solid James has
only developed Jamie Jimmy, Jim and
Jeems, while the vast category of possibles

Ajsem, Amsei, Emjas, Esiam, Ejsam and
see if anyone branded with either could
escape the fields of fate.
