 Catch From the Washington Monument
 In game of baseball played last spring between the New York and Princeton teams an instance was furnished of an ed ucational contrast between college players and professional players as the rank and flo go. A fly was batted by one of the New York men back of first base Phil King, the Princeton's captain, started for bhe ball and called out: Keep awayl I have it." In the next inning similar fly was sent to Shortstop Fuller of the New Yorks, and he yelled; Look outl got itI'' Syntax, as rule, outs little figure in the professional baseball players abilities. He may know all the tricks of his trade, but he is as barren of original remarks as @ sand bank.
 am reminded of this fact forcibly by the frequent use on the coaching lines of that hackneyed expression after bats man has a strike or two called on him: i'Never mind that, old man. It only takes Dne to hit itl" Besides being ungrammat-

.cal the phrase is as common as the crow ing of a rooster Some coacher should vary the cry by shouting: Don't get discour- aged. You have another chance left Or: tThat's only two. Take your third brialr' ''Watch it close. You'll hit the ball next time it comes over," or a dozen different expressions meaning the same as ''it only takes one to hit it.
 It is astonishing to see what little orig lnality there is among baseball coachers. Arlie Latham, however, is bright excep- lion. He is a man with a remarkable gift of gab, " and he never lacks for some thing to say apropos to the circumstance or the occasion. What is better, he seldom srepcats," and it is all the more wonder ful that he docs not because he is continu- ally chattering from the time game be- gins till it ends Latham is natural wit, and whenever he is in the game the audi ence Gan audience indeed on such occa- sions) is constantly on the qui vive for Arlie's funny comments and remarks l have seen "the clown, as he is sometimes called, make his own comrades laugh un- til tho game was interrupted thereby

ley Rowing association. The ease with which he defeated Fred Hawkins and oth- CT fast men in minutes and 47L sec onds proves him remarkable oarsman.
 Koenig has been rowing about five years and is a pupil of John Teemer, the well known professional. Teemer was so talk en with Koenig's rowing that he guaran- teed that If the young St. Louisan would follow his instructions and train faithfully he would win the national single scull championship within two years
 Koenig's list of victories is long one for so young an oarsman He won his first race in the pair cared shell in Detroit in August, 1891 He was also one of the junior pair and senior pairs which were victors at the Mississippi valley, North western and A. R. A. regattas in Detroit in August, 1891. He also pulled an oar in the winning barge crew at the same re- gatta.
 On July 4,1s92, in St. Joseph, Mo-, at the Mississippi valley regatta he won his first single scull race-namely, the junior single. At Austin, Tex, in June, 1898, he defeated McDowel, champion sculler of Chicago, and also worsted James Tender son of the Catlin Boat club at the annual regatta of. the Mississippi Valley assocla- ton in August, 1893, at Lake Minnetonka After the Minnetonka regatta Koenig went to Detroit to try for the national scull championship, but could not do better than fourth.
 Teemer considers him the fastest quar- ter of mile sprinter in the country He has won in all about 30 races and las fully that many medals, besides a hand some silver cup. The cup just won at Saratoga is valued at $1, 500 and is em- blematic of the senior single scull cham pionship of America.

"Although the Eskimo are dependent upon the sea for everything they eat and for the clothes they wear none of them knows how to swim," said Lieutenant G. L. Tanner, an ex-navy officer.

HelmhoItz's Remarkable Brain.

In order TO satisfy scientific men as to
the real cause of Professor Helmholtz's
death, says the London Telegraph's Ber-
lin correspondent, a post mortem exam
ination was made at tho desire of his
relatives, the chief results of which are
as follows: As consequence of the par
alytic strokes the left portion of the
brain was considerably softened, while
the right portion was perfectly normal
and sound. The brain displayed unusu-
ally numerous cerebral situations, such
as are known to be generally observed
in the brains of persons of very great
intellect The physicians and patholo-
gists who conducted the examination
were extremely interested in what
they saw, and a cast of the brain was
Immediately taken. Other organs Of
the body showed some signs of disorder,
but i'll his lifetime the deceased had not
experienced any Inconvenience there

But what is all Of that,
You know each day little sewing
Adds u little to the mat.

For there's plenty of them here,
They are tripping around quite gayy
For they like this time OF year.
And the cheerful grassi fadeing
And the leaves have gone, on, where?
Soon he bowling winds of winter
Will shake the white down in the air.
Then to church they go quite often
And to parties every night,
On the way they will talk and ponder
While gazeng o'er the glossy white.
Now when the boys their girls they meet
And their loving words they mingle
Is when the snow begins to fall
And the bells begin to jingle.

A MILD ORIENTAL.

If yoN consider the circumstances of
the case it was the only thing that he
could do. But Pambe Ssrang had been
hanged by the neck till he was dead,
and nobody cared whether he was right
or wrong.
Three years ago, when the Elsass-
Lothringen steamer Saarbuck was coal
ing at Alden and the weather was very
hot indeed, Nurkeed, the big fat Zanzi-
bar stoker who fed the second right
furnace 80 feet down in the hold, got
leave to go ashore. He departed a
"Seedee boy" as they call the stokers.
He returned the full blooded sultan of
Zanzibar-his royal highness Sayyid
Burgash-with a bottle i'll each hand.
Then he sat on the fore hatch grating
eating salt fish and onions and singing
the songs Of far country The food be-
longed to Pambe, the serang, or head
man Of the lascar sailors. He had just
cooked it for himself, turned to borrow
some salt, and when he came back Nur-
keed's dirty fingers We're spading into
the rice A serang is person Of i'm
portance, far above a stoker, though the
stoker draws better pay. He sets the
chorus of "Hya, hula! Heeah, lieh, "
when the captain S gig is pulled up to
the davits. He heasves the lead, too, and
sometimes, when all the ship is lazy,
he puts on his whitest muslin and a
big red sash and plays with the passen-
gers children on the quarter deck.
Then the passengers give him money,
and he saves it for an orgie at Bombay,
Calcutta or Pulu Penang.
"Ho, you fat, black barrel, you re
eating my food" said Pambe in the
other lingua franca which begins where
the Levant tongue stops and runs from
Port Said eastward till east is west and
the sealing brigs of the Kurile islands
gossip with Hakodate junks.
Son of Eblis, monkey face, dried
shark liver, pig man, I am the Sultan
Sayyid Burgash and the commander OF
all this ship! Take away your garbage, u
and Nurkeed thrust the empty pewter
rice plate into Pambe's hand. Pambe
beat it into basin over Nurkeed's
woolly head. Nurkeed drew his sheath
knife and stabbed Pambe in the leg.
Pambe drew his sheath knife, but Nur.
keed dropped down into the darkness Of
the hold and spat through the grating
at Pambe, who was staining the fore
deck with his blood
Only the big white moon saw these
things, for the officers were looking
after the coaling and the passengers
were tossing in their close cabins CAL
