WHAT A BOY CAN DO.

These are some ofthe things that boy can DO
He can whistle 50 loud that the air turns blue
He can make all sounds Of beast and bid
And a thousand noises ever heard
He can crow or csekie, or he can ciuck
As well as a rooster. hen or duck
lie can bark like dog he can low bkt d cow
Aud n eat itself can't beat its meow.
He has sounds that are RULED. striped a'id plain'
lie can thunder BY as railway train.

He has all his poweFs in sneh command
He can turn right into full brass band.

COLLEGE ATHLETICS.

The professionalism which has crept
into college athletics, and which has
caused the public TO look with disfavor
on ths popular branch Of college life,
has at last apparently reached its turn
ing point.
Yale, which has always been in the
lead in athletics, has taken the lead In
the reform, and the other colleges must
follow. 1t is we'll known that all of the
colleges prominent in contests of the
ball field, the gridiron, the track, have
made such inducements to outside men,
not otherwise susceptible to the in
fiuences of student life to enter college
and under the pretense of studying
some trifling thing or other-"snaps -
represent the institution on the field OF
athletic contest.
Without question money has beer
paid to these men for their services,
and their personal and intellectual
shortcomings overlooked in the light OF
their athletic prowess. Faculty and
the more far-seeing students have tried
to prevent this unhealthy growth in
athletics, but to no avail, and like
all diseases it had to take its w time
for Its own cure.
When this true purpose Of colleges is
subordinated to the athletic interest
when the glory of a victory on the ball
field overshadows and cloaks the
methods which gained it, then it seems
that there is urgent need of reform.
To the first few colleges to break
away from this corrupt practice belongs
all honor, and to them succeeding
alumni will look for suitable institu-
tons for sons to attend.

DOING THEIE DUTY.

We are pleased to note that the Demo-
Gratis in the general assembly have at
last awoke to their duty, and seem now
to realize that they are sent to represent
the people, and il they cannot assist in
the graver business that comes before
the general assembly they can at least
amuse the people.
Nh. Owen essayed the role of enter
tainer yesterday with a success that,
while it cannot be called conspicuous
may fairly be denominated considerable.
His amendment to the bill introduced
by Mr.. Wilson was admirably calculated
to tighten the tedium of the session, as
well as to display the good temper of
the Democrats.
When grave lawmakers stoop to folly,
or unbend to hilarity, then indeed is the
time to laugh. Mr.. Owens effort de-
serves more than that ephemeral noto-
rriety vouchsafed by the news columns Of
our estimable morning contemporary,
and we therefore enshrine it here. .Mr.
Wilson had reported from the judiciary
committee of the house an act providing
for the constitution and organization Of
the general assembly. Mr.. Owen moved
to amend section 2 as follows:
Mr.. owen Of scituate moved to amend the bill as
follows IN section 2; Immediately after the cleo
tlon OF speaker no member shall be recognized by
the speaker unless he shall have the East Provt-
denee Wilson collar around his neck with the
number of the street where he lives engraved
thereon. the place where he was born, and. IL
born in a foreign country he shall file the certif-
cate of his naturalization with said Wilson at
least three days before the meeting Of the general
assembly and also that he isduly licensed and the
tax paid. and also shall have on said collar
n copy In plea type OF the corporation judiciary
bill. and also shall prove by competent evidence OF
at least 900 incorruptible East Greenwich Allen
II republicans 10 be named by that public purist.
Repr essen tative Allen, that he has paid a tax is of
sound mind, and was not elected through bribery.
Any person violating this section sha be fined
q ooo. 600. and be held under water for thirty days
by oder OF the Republican speaker. and forever
thereafter sh all be compelled to train with Repre-
seniatives Wilson. Allen aud Landers.
Mr.. Owen deserves well, we think, of
his party, and of his political opponents
as we'll. Whoever makes men laugh
benefits the world.

NO TIME FOR APATHY.

Whenever the people of Newport
have been aroused and an approx
mately full vote secured the Repubh-
cans have always been in the majority.
In other words, while the Democrats
show nearly all their strength at every
election, it is only when questions OF
great moment and Importance are to
be settled that the Republicans show
their power and prove they are still in
the majority.
1t is for this reason the News be-
lieves that Mr.. Carry, the Republican
candidate for the house of representa-
tives, will be elected next Tuesday.
Under existing circumstances there is
the strongest incentive to a full turning
out of Republican electors. True, the
party already has a majority in grand
committee and will in all human prob
ability elect its candidates for state
offices; but even in the short space of
time intervening before the meeting of
the Legislature accident or sickness may
reduce that majority TO a minority.
The Republicans of Newport should do
their part to make such an unfortunate
condition of affairs impossible. This is
no time for apathy.

SEEKING THE IMPOSSIBLE.

1t is announced that perpetual motion
has at last been discovered, and that
the inventor has applied for a patent.
This latest striver after the unattain-
able is less mysterious and secret than
his fellow Investigators, for he frankly
states hat his machine is to be operated
by a series of cannon balls. 1t is to be
doubted, however, whether he will ever
amass a fortune unless he finds men of
money who are more gullible than the
average.
Kelley, who has been ahead of him,
has raked the field pretty clean, and as
all the returns the investors have 'le-
ceived for their money is a piece OF
paper representing stock upon which
assessments are regularly called for to
enable the inventor to live in luxury
while he pursues his Investigations,
there is little likelihood that the new
scheme will be received with much
favor.
Nor does the invention seem to pos
sess the essential elements of novelty.
wilkins, Jackson and Merlin endeav-
ored, long before Newton proved it inn
possible, to give perpetual motion to a
wheel by so arranging balls in cells as
to have the preponderance of weight
always on the descending side. If this
is the principle on which the inventor
POUNDS his claim for a patent and his
hope for wealth he need not be surprised
if he finds himself regarded as a sharper
and m~ountebank.
There is nor can be no perpetual mo-
ton in the strict meaning of the term,
but were natures laws SO changed as
to give eternal life to the book agent and
insurance solicitor the problem would
be solved and Newton's precepts over.
thrown. However, a wise Providence
protects human kind from such a dire
calamity.

WHENCE COMES THE MONEY.

This has been the banner week of the
general assembly. The amount of bust
ness done has been great enough to sat
isfy the most captious critic. How
we'll it has been done only time can tell.
The characteristic feature of the leg
islation, however, has been not more its
political than its financial tendency.
The two political bills relating to the
organization of the branches of the
assembly and the grand committee have
been fully explained. But the financial
developments Of the week can scarcely
be considered to be either entirely
creditable from a business or a partisan
point of view.
The leading appropriations have been
for a building at the state workhouse
s., 900; for expenses of the state officials
at the Worlds fair $40, 900; for the South
county court house 100000; for the
Pawtucket armory $4,000, and for the
Newport armory and Naval Reserve
station SEQ, 900. In addition to these a
resolution is in hand asking $500 0 for
q Providence armory.
Doubtless there is reason for the ap-
preparation of the $185, 900 for which
the state treasurer will be called upon
at a later time, but if so it has not been
sufficiently explained upon the floor of
the house during the passage
OF the various resolutions calling
for the above sums. 1t is
not necessary TO specify those in which
there is extravaganza and those in
which there is apparent reason, but
when the income has already been ex-
ceeded by the appropriations by 49,, 900
this year 1t would seem that a greater
degree Of conservatism and caution
should be observ ed than has been shown
this week in appropriating an additional
$165, 600.
The approximate income Of the state
is 81, 200, 600. That sum had already
been exceeded more than two weeks
ago, IL the most authentic reports
are true. IL makes little differ
ence what the needs Of 1.-THE state
are, the general assembly is not
only making itself lbs subject
of unfavorable comment but invites IL
when II attempts to provide for tho Sc
needs with money which 1t neither DOS

THE suggestion of Hon. Levi p. Nor

reason. Money is always acceptable in
a campaign, but personal following and
votes are better.
