and play as if life and death depended
on the result
At college any man that can play his
best in the tightest place, who can
play an uphill" game, is considered
the most valuable man. and il is the
same among boys of your age. Some
people viii say you can not put this
quality into a boy. that il must be born
with him. but I think If you watch
yourself. and get into the habit OF
playing tennis or other games with
better players than yourself. you will
have chance to bring out that quality
when il may be somewhere away in the
background of your character, even
supposing you could not actually put IL
into yourselfu Every healthy boy
has manly courage il he only lets
it come to the surface. BY play
ing better man than your
self you will be put on yoar metal;
you will be beaten very likely. but you
will at least have the opportunity OF
trying your ability to keep cool aud

1t is pretty safe to say that the boy
who can bring this peculiar kind Of
courage into play at the right time il
the boy who is most valuable on a
team or as a representative of any
club. The details Of any game are
more or less matter Of time, but the
faculty OF winning game from bet

Train robberies, and big ones, at that,

AIN ANECDOTE OF HERMANN.

A little group of Pittsburg club mem
bers were exchanging theatrical anec-
dotes after lunch yesterday, says the
Pittsburg Chronicle telegraph, when the
approach of Ed. L. Bloom suggested
the coming engagement Of Hermann.
Bloom said that one OF the aids to the
great popularity which Hermann en-
Joys is his wonderful ability TO create
great sensation whenever and wherever
he chooses. II remember one incident
which happened in Chicago when the
Board Of Trade was in the old Chamber
of Commerce building, corner OF
Washington and LaSalle streets.
Hermann strolled in one morning,
brushed past the doorkeeper, and
crowded right into the midst Of the
brokers. Somebody recognized the ma
gician and yelled, Hermann is here!
Look out for HERMANN Everybody
struggled to get look at the famous
wizard, and Hermann thrust his hand
into the waistcoat of the nearest man
pulling out Goldfish. The victim was
greeted with a howl of laughter, and
one man tried to grab the Goldfish. This
seemed to annoy Hermann, and he
turned on his volunteer assistant and
dragged live, sQuaking hen from the
inside of his coat. Hermann put the
hen into bystander's silk hat and
clapped 1t on his head. The man tore
of his hat, but the hen wasn't there.
Hermann reached for another mans
hat and took out of it handful of loose
$50 bills. Half dozen grabbed for the
cash in the conjurer's hands, but they
were too late-the tWenties had van
ished. BY this time the special police
man employed on Change TO preserve
the peace had forced his way through
the crowd. Hermann glanced search
ingy into the officers face, hesitated
moment, and then, with the exclama-
ton, Gentlemen, the law must be
respected" he voluntarily submitted to
arrest BY the time they reached the
door, followed by a storm Of applause,
the officer was smiling broadly, and at
the main entrance he released his pris-
oner, bowling him out with all the
suavity of a Chesterfield, and at the
same time quietly slipping into his
pocket shining $50 gold piece. Ten
minutes later the turmoil of specula-
ton was again in full blast and the
blue-coated representative Of law and
order took another sly peep at his
golden souvenir, but, great Scot! il
had turned into lead dollar with two
holes in i'll"

rHE NEW PENSION COMMISSIONERS,

THE NEW PENSION COMMISSIONER.
The appointment Of Judge LocHREN,
OF Minnesota, an old veteran, to the
Commissionership OF Pensions, means
the beginning OF that reform to which
all lovers of the soldier and OF the coun-
try have been looking forward with so
much anxiety and hope.
There is no doubt that ex-Mayor

townsman of Judge LocRREN, voices
not only that genteman'S sentiments,

had about made the system so unpopu-

Indeed there is little doubt but that
four more years Of the lndiscriminate
use Of the pension power, coupled with
the wholesale corruption and extrava-
