American Star and Clay blood. The

Judgment for horse recently directed
my attention to two very choice road

He wished to Illustrate by them the
merit of thoroughbred blood. They did
carry much of this blood; but | sur
prised him by showing that the sire OF
these horses was direct in male line from
Black Hawk, by Sherman Morgan, and

In the days when the SaXOns dominated
England, prior to the coming of William
of Normandy, the people were formed into
divisions OF hundreds. This was done
mainly for military purposes and the CON
vcnicncc of assembly upon the summons
of the powerful carls and barons to whom
the people owed allegiance. These hun
dreds usually consisted of ten families,
each family being computed at Il minimum
of ten persons. In time the families in
creased in membership, but did not lose
their individual identity nor change tho
designation of organization. In the nat
ural order o. events these hundreds cX
pHndcd into communities and ultimately
into geographical divisions and took on
geographical designations.
Some of the American colonists adopted
this form of geographical division, an,
thus we still have hundreds in Delaware
and Virginia. although in the latter STATE
that form of designations is but seldom
used. But in Delaware hundred is uniyor
sally used to describe the divisions OF I
county and * equivalent to the township
in Pennsylvania and other states.-Phila

Some months ago, when the football
mania was at,its height, we ventured to
point out,that as 1T was being pie yed es-
pecially at the leading colleges, foot ball
was not the wholesome athletic sport that
it was represented; that on the contrary,
it involved great risk to life and linn b,
subjected the player to a serious nervous
strain, and that oftentimes it's excite
lnent betrayed him into acts of brutality.
Immediately the undergraduate became
exceeding wroth : and took his pen in
hand to assure.us that We didn't know
what we were talking about; that foot
ball was really one of the most manly
sports in existence; that it was Won
derful developer of self control; that the
men who had broken their necks play
ing it were either men who had not
sufficiently trained themselves, or who
had neglected 10 put cleats on their
shoes; and that everybody who inyeighed
against football was either u very igno-
rant person or a very squeamish one.
Some of the parents caught the enthn-
sissm of the youngsters, and one wrote
to the PRESS that he encouraged his
boy to play foot ball to prepare him for
the battle of life" The season for out

The suggestion which correspondent
offers in another column to the effect
that by an expenditure of much less
money than would probably be required
to bring the Bath iron works to Portland
all the advantages of that project might
be obtained by extending the works OF
the Portland compa-.; is one worthy OF
much consideration. While we do not
want to discourage anybody who thinks
the Bath iron works can be brought here,
candor compels us to say that we regard
the chances of success as very small. 1t
is highly improbable that the Bath iron
works will be removed from that city to
any place which does not afford some
perm anent business advantage. We
question if Portland can offer any such
advantage The conditions for building
iron ships or marine engines are just as
favorable, so far as we can see, at Bath as
at Portland. III Portland should pay
every cent of the cost of removal the
Bath works would be no better situated
for business than now. If Portland can
offer some permanent business advant-
age, if it can show that the conditions
surrounding the industry will be better
here than in Bath, then the hope may
reasonably be INDUCED in that it will
come here. But not otherwise. This may
be possible, but as between the removal
of the Bath works and the extension of
the Portland conipany's works, the latter
appears the more feasible and promising.
At any rate it will do no harm for the
committees of the city government and
Board OF Trade to consider both
projects.
