prevail that with regard to race track
betting no further legislation would be

repeal the Ives law and revive the old

An English doctor attached to the court
of a rajah made himself most indispensable
to his neighbors. He had, fortunately also
made a friend of the prime minister. On
one occasion his highness, being slightly
indisposed, had taken. by the doctors ad-
vice, a seidlitz powder. with which he ex-
pressed himself delighted. Its tendency to
boil and fizz ready to blow your nose Off,
seemed to him to scatter coolness," and
he seemed so much better after taking 1t
that the doctor felts himself justified in
joining in a hunting party.

The wonderful natural soap mines at

by the following theory, which has been
advanced by well-known western scien-
fist: The water Of the lake contains a
strong solution of both borax and soda.
In the water a curious species of grub
breed by millions. These grubs go through
their various transformations and finally
emerge as shOrt-wingcd, heavy-bOded flies,
very fat and oily. They live but a few
days, dying and falling into the lake in
such numbers as to be frequently washed
ashore in layers more than a foot thick.
The oily substance of the dead flies blends
with the alkali of the boraX and soda and
the result is layer of pure soap. CORE

Manifold essays, treatises and poems have
been written, with more or less success, to
describe the qualities which make up a
lust" man, a religious man and sym
pathetic" man. Moralists and philosophers
have managed to give pretty fair deflni-
ton of these terms but fell short of the
reality when they came to linn a good
man. Where Plato, and Seneca, and Boz
THUS failed, a vestryman Of Battersea,
named Turnor, has triumphantly succeed

officer about whose conduct some Ques-

NOT AIMED At RACING.
Purpose Of the New Constitutional
Amendment I'm New York.

Amendment i'm New York.
Mr.. Storms, who introduced the amend
ment in the New York constitutional con-
vention which prohibits bookmaking and
other gambling devices at horse races, sup
ports the view of Mr.. Elihu Root, recently
printed in The Star, that racing itself was
not aimed at. He says:
There was not the least intention to
prohibit racing or to interfere with the
br -eding of blood stock. In fact, before go
ing to Albany, l consulted with G. How
land Leavitt, president of the Queens
County Agricultural Society, and himself
a breo der and was advised by him that l
was on the right track, and to go ahead
1.-THE amendment was fully discussed in
the convention. Some of the members OBJ
jected to it on the ground that while 1t
would undoubtedly suppress such purely
gambling enterprises as the Flushing ana
Maspeth meetings, it might also prevent
legitimate racing, which, they stated, they
did not wish to do. Both Mr.. Root and
AIR. Choate were at first opposed to the
amendment, believing that its provisions
were too sweeping. When it was explained,
however, that there did not seem to be any
other way by which gambling that was
being carried on under the guise of racing
could be stopped, these gentlemen were
won over, and the amendment was adopted.
while the amendment states that the
legislature shall pass appropriate laws to
prevent offcnses against the provisions of
this section which relates to lotteries,

ENGLISH ATHLETES COMINu.
Prospects of Their Meeting the Ne"
A. e.. Next Fail.

N. T.. Next FuII'
The outlook at present is brighter than
ever for a series of international athletic
tournaments next season, says the ne"
York Sun. The scheme recently outlined
by the New York A. c. has found favor III
England, which was hardly expected 1t
will he remembered that the New York "A.
&, challenged the London A. C., giving the
latter the option of organizing a represen-
tative national team. Secretary Charies
Herbert of the Amateur Athletic Associa-
ton OF England writes by the latest mail
as follows:
IL fancy We shall be able to get a team
10 90 out In September but i. do not think
we can manage 1t before VI course we
must see your proposals as TO distances
and other details first. We will do all We
can to arrange a meeting. SO Tar as can
see YOU would win the 10 and SSO-yard
runs throwing weights, hammer and run
ming hgh-jump. l regard the hurdles ana
pole vault as doubtful, but l think We
might v i'm the lOO-yard quarterNmile one
mile and four-mile ruiis, long jump and
steepIechase. This makes things very
equal.
MY calculation, of course. depends on
whether We can get c. a. Bradley, +. e.
Bredin, Godfrew Shaw, w. L. Lutyens, F..
$. Koran, w. J. Nj. Barry, c. ID. Fry and "A
high jumper. 1t will be very difficult to gel
our best men to go so far ard be away 50
long. l shall do my utmost, however, to
organize the team. Our nine-event inter-
varsity program would be the best, l
think. better than the A. a. L. champion
ship"
The inter-'varsity program, which the
Englishmen favor, consists of the follow
ing events: 100, 4iO. SS0-yard, one-mile and
three-nlile runs, 12O-yard hurdle race, run
ming high jump, running broad jump, put
ting 16-pound shot and throwing 16-pound
hammer.
In the course OF his letter Secretary Her.
bert mentions that there is little hope OF
securing a larger or mere representa- tive
team than that named by him. Such
prominent champions of England as Bacon,
Horgan and Thomas are missing from the
list, but the choice is so good for such a
program as that suggested that there is
little room for improvement.
