Notes Of the Amateurs,


SEw1cKLEY will need an instructor In the
new order OF things there.
THE A. A. AS are at work fixing up Recre-
alton Park. Play will begin there soon.
WITH its bicycle club the East End Gyms
seem to be trying to monopolize the entire
field OF sport.
THE long list of Western University men
training for the intercollegiate field day
portends big tournament.
The West End Gymnastic Club boys de-
serve encouragement in their efforts to in
crease enthusiasm in that section Of the
city.
GARDNER and Smink Will be the wilkins
burg battery at the opening game of the
County League season at the East End Gym
Park.
The Western University will hold it's pro-
liminary field day May Il, to decide upon its
representatives in the intercollegiate
sports.
INTEREST among amateurs is ev1nced by
the great number OF improvements, new
clubhouses, grounds, etc, springing up in
ali quarters.
The East End Gymnastic Club took in
eight new members last month, and so far
this month there have been ten applications.
Quite u boom going on there.
The prospects of good boat racing on the
Allegheny this season will increase the In.
terest in. boating and should boom the mem
bership of the Columbia club.
LAWN TENNIS courts in the old 7. NJ C. A.
grounds in Allegheny will swell the mem-
bership OF the Three AS among the ladies.
Allegheny has long needed club furnishing
nrst-class facilities for tennis.
SEwIcKLEY will probably furnish some
strong competitors for honors among the
amateurs this sea ason. With the new club
house Sewickley's facilities tor producing
first class amateurs will be second to none.

expects to be mother, could tell her she
should have drowned, long, long ago. 1t
seems to me that many parents err in this
respect They are good, loving parents, and
try to do their best by their children, but
they lack discrimination. Many times they
bestow the greatest care and the most pains
upon the one child in brood of seven or
eight, which they should have sent down to
the branch by the hands of the hired man in
infancy, or exported in close tied sack, for
surreptitious and. non-reciprocal deposit
upon neighboring farm, before it was old
enough to find its way back.

mother must see how gravely she erred in
not putting that girl in a covered basket
the first time the boys went to town with q
load of wheat, and have them drop her over
the Usage hedge just west of Benson's lane.
1t would have been good for the mother,
better for the girl, and best of all, for the

Another Kind of Kitten.
Speaking of girls who give their mother
points on the training and culture OF chill
dren, reminds me of cat who took up his
residence with me last summer. He was a
Mark Antony cat, who beloved great
deal more than he fought. although he was
fighting most of the time he was awake.
His Distinguishing feature was an eye which
he didn't have. But he could see well
enough with the one he had to find his way
home from any point, no matter how re-
mote, to which he might be expatriated by
decree of the senate. His devotion to the
land Of his adoption gave me great many
heartaches and many hours of intense NOR
tifcation.
One Sunday evening, I enticed him into
respectable-lookins gripsack, and strolled
across the Bryn Mawr Hotel grounds, in
tending to bereave myself of him near the
hotel, where I hoped the dazzling allur-
ments of the society of cats with attractive
pedigrees, who wore ribbons around their
necks, might wean him from his attach
ment to his bachelor apartments in the loft
of an humble stable, whose only other occu-

Washington Has All Sorts, but They Are All

Washington has a variety of women's
clubs. There are the Wimod ,ughsis, the
Woman's Suffrage, the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union, the Woman's Anthro-
biological, Pro Re Nata and a number of
others. All of these clubs are formed for
self-improvement or for benevolent pur-
poses. There is not one organized for merely
social pleasure. Most of these societies OF
women will be represented at the federation
of clubs to be held in Chicago in May. The
Anthropological Club will send its Presi-
dent, Mrs. Landers; Mrs. E. NJ. Marble will
represent the wimodaughsis; Mrs. NJ. A.
Lock wood will express the sentiments of
the Woman's National Press Club; Mrs.
Lucia Blount, President of Pro Re Nata,
and Mrs. s. E. HILBERT, member, will go
to Chicago in behalf of their favorite club.
Pro Re Nata is the only club of its kind,
being organized for the study Of parliament

Q sum about equal to $40 of our money.

Tho Green Color in Candy.

Many persons avoid candies that are col
ored green for fear some deleterious SUBJ
stance may have been used in the coloring.
The fear is groundless. The coloring mat
ter used to give green tinge to the candy
is generally from one or two sources; it is
either the juice of the common garden spin
ach or that of the pistachio nut. The former
gives green tint, but it is by no means
clear, while the pistachio nut green is won
dertully delicate in hue and very pleasant
to the eye.

Doubtless all the cranks and fans of the
national game have noticed so far this sea-
son the wonderful good work done by the
veteran" pitchers such as Mullane, Keefe,
Clarkson and Calvin. There is, indeed,
something remarkable in the form displayed
by these men so early in the season and
after all of them had been more or less pro-
nounced "played out" There is something
in their work upon which those who like to
investigate methods of conditioning and
training can with profit bestow some
thought
Our friend sTony" Mullane has really
done some very great work and 1 wonder
what those who had Tony out of the arena
some time ago have to say about it. Keefe
has evidently regained his old form and if
he has, what loss New York has suffered
and what gain Philadelphia has made. If
Keete can sustain his present form it is one
more proof OF the folly of releasing an e1-
perienced player simply because somebody
has come to the conclusion that he is ''has
been" No baseball pitcher of renown
should be disposed of when he is out of
form without the most careful considers
ton. Time and time again we have proofs
OF the mistakes that personal feeling and
lack of consideration cause in the baseball
business.
Calvin and Clarkson are also starting out
well. and altogether these veterans" sug-
gest the question, are the arms of the young
men of to-day made of the same stuff that
the arms of the young men of some years
ago were made of?

SUICIDE BY ~CRuCIFIXION.
Attem pit of an insane italian to Die on
Cr0ss.

Attemp pit of an insane italian TO Die on n
Cross.
An extraordinary attempt at suicide was
that OF an Italian p%aranoiae, who deter-
mined to cruelty himself for the sins of the
world. He deliberately set about the man
ufaoturs of a cross and all the adjuncta
necessary for oruoifixion. Perceiving that
il would be difficult to nail himself firmly
to the cross, he made a not. which he fas-
tened to il, securing il at the bottom of the
upright beam, a little below the bracket ne
had placed for his feet, and ut the end OF
the two arms.
The whole apparatus was tied by W
ropes, one from the not and the other from
the place where the beams intersected each
other. These ropes. fastened to the bar
above the window, were just long enough to
permit the cross to lie on the floor OF the
room. These Preparations finished, he put
on his crown OF thorns, some of which en-
tered his forehead. Stripping himself
naked he girdled his loins with a white
handkerchief. Then he introduced him
self into the net. and seating himself on the
cross drove a nail into his right palm by
striking its head on the floor until the point
appeared on the other side.
He placed his feet on the bracker, ana,
with n mallet drove q nail through them
both, entering a hole he had previously
made to receive it. and thus fastened them
to the wood. He then tied himself to the
cross by a piece of cord around his waist,
after which he wounded himself with a
sboemaker1s knife in the left side, but
failed to iniure any important organ. He
had to make several scratches on his breast
to determine the place of least reslstanee.
This knife represented the spear OF the
crucifxion. This was lone in his room.
In order to show himself to the people no
placed the foot of the cross upon the win
dow sill, which was very low, and by press
his fingers against the floor he gradually
drew himself forward until the foot of the
cross overbalanced the head. the whole ma
chine tilted out of the window and bung by
the two ropes fastened to the beam.
He then nailed his right hand to the arm
of the cross, but could not succeed in fixing
the left, although the nail by which it was
to be fixed WAS driven through until half of
it came out on the other side. After hang |
ing thus an hour he was noticed, detached
from the cross and put to bed. He recov-
erad from the wounds. |
