"Man in No. SO wants some patlor
matches. He says these eight.day
sticks are q COMPOUNDED nuisance" the
bell boy said to the clerk in one Of the
hotels yesterday.
ssTell him he'll have to got along
with the old.style match" answered
the clerk. "The insurance companies
don't allow parlor matches in the
eooms."
s'Yes, that's a fact," he continued,
in answer to a surprised questioner.
Insurance policies Of nearly all com
panies prohibit the keeping and use
of parlor matches in any part Of a
hotel, but they are generally kept in
the Offices because they are in greater
favor and more convenient than the
sulphur match, and the requirements
Of the policy is to that extent over

issuing company. There isn't much
chance for an accidental ignition Of q
parlor match to do much harm in q
hotel Office, but they r dangerous

tains or stray paper are liable TO catch
fire from them. They are not only
more easily lighted by accident, such
as stepping upon them, but, as Is not

You may Judge how easily this is liable
to happen by holding q bunch OF them

been made to the French Academy of
Science by N. Lsgneau. He demon.

France the average of life is forty

enormous mortality among newborn

recently, and considerable apprehen.
sion is felt that their frequent recur.
renee presages a great disaster at no
distant day. The study Of seismology
is not quite an exact science, but
enough data have been gathered on the

c~onclusively to the San Francisco

grounds as an addition to Trinity college
we're first talked of, the same objection
was raised, it being urged by the croakers
that the students would give more atten
ton to football than to mathematics, and
make greater progress in field ethics than
in moral science.
But progress in education, as in other
things, had gotten too strong a foothold
in this particular live and growing city
for such stuff to go, and the modern idea
of more muscle, more brain, t%riumphed,
as it should.
And so it happens that athletic games
at Trinity park, participated in by stu
dents of other institutions and witnessed
by hundreds of visitors from other cities,
have come to be an interesting feature
not only of the college, but of the town,
and a valuable one, since they bring
people to Durham and help to advertise
the city.
While baseball and football may not be
the best way to promote muscular devel-
opment, and while 1t must be CONCEDED
that the same beneficial results could be
secured in apparently more profitable
pastime, yet it is a move in the right d.
r~ection, and as such should be encour-
aged. The day has gone by when a
dwarfed body is taken as an index to a
giant mind. People have learned that
the body is as much a part of themselves
and as we'll worth developing as the brain
which derives its nouri5hment from it.
In other words, that a strong mind can
do twice the work with a strong body
back of it, and that it is no less a part of
education to develop the muscles than
the reasoning powers.
And so THE GLOBE says, let the boys
kick, and let the people Of the town see
that they are encouraged by their pres
ence.

AN AGE OF

The growing popularity of athletic
sports in our schools and colleges has
called forth much criticism from the
curved back and narrow-chested old time
educator, who, believing that intellectual
growth was only to be obtained at the
expense of the physical, kept school,
ten hours a day and spurred the tagging
ambition Of his ~listless and exhausted
pupils by a rigidly righteous and vigor-
oGsly vicious application of the rod, to
which he confidently looked for inspira.
tion whenever the mind showed evidences
of dizziness or decay. The idea that the
more Latin and Greek that could be
crammed into the head of a boy, the
greater his chance for usefulness and
possibilities for distinction, made the
average school room Of fifty years ago a
sort of inquisition in which children
were tortured for the good of their minds
And the fallacy is not yet exploded.
Notwithstanding the fact that all the
leading educational institutions of the
country have demonstrated by daily
practice the absurdity and evils of such
a sS stem, there are still enough of the
old fogies left to make a prodigious kick
against what, in their prejudice and
short ,sightcdness, they are pleased to
term the degeneracy of the times, pre-
dieting, as the result, the speedy decline
