lumbia and Cornell athlete, and Jones, Meikcljohn and Matteson are all from Brown university. wrenn was the crack quarter back of the Harvard football team of 1894, and the Brown university men aro all football players of note.
 Tho intercollegiate hockey team does not pretend to be an all United States team or to be the champion amateur hockey team of the country. The members make tho trip out of pure love of sport and with littlo idea that they can hold their own with the well trained, experienced hockey players of Canada. They are explained by Chacc and will play the crack hockey teams of Toronto, Hamilton, Kingston, Ottawa and Montreal.
 Hockey has long been one of the most popular winter sports in Canada, but 1t has never flourished to any extent in the United States. Shinncy, roller polo and rink polo, however, have been quite the rage at different times and in various parts of the country, and as thero is very littlo difference between these games and hockey the American college athletes will probably become expert hockey players in very short timc,
 Hockey is a variation of tho old Scotch game of shinty, which is called shinney in the United States. It gets its name from 
 of whacking their opponents over the shins if these worthics arc indiScreet enough to attempt to strike at the bail when they are of side. Tho well known warning cry of "Shinney on your own sidel' from player on ono team is usually the fore runner of black and blue shins in the op- posing aggregation. Shinney is played on the ice in the open air, and the opposing | teams are made up of two disorderly mohs of unlimited numbers of players, who use little system and have but a single object in view-tho driving of tho ball across the goal limo or between tho goal posts of the | opposing team. The ball Is placed mid way between tho rival goals, the players | line up on their side of the ball, and tEe ball is put in play by two rival players who scramble for it with their crude curved clubs each player endeavoring to send il 1 toward the encmy's goal. The moment the ball is in play a player may go any where he desires regardless of the fact that he is ahead of the ball. but when he strikes at tho ball his body must be to the left ot it and well out of tho way, or @ player coming from the opposite direction may | rap him across the legs with his club. When the roller skating craze swept over the country seven or eight years age | and every town had from one to half a dozen rinks, roller polo, u sort of shinney

The Zinc Cure.

A we'll dressed middle aged man was hobbling up Sixth avenue, near Four teenth street, with evident signs of pain at every step he took, when he was accost- ed by Q pleasant faced little old lady in widows bonnet, black dress and neat plaid shawl.
 Excuse my speaking, sir," she said, but I take 1t you are sufferer from rheumatismf"
 ''Indeed I am," answered the man, leaning heavily on his two sticks, and this damp weather makes it uncomfortable. II should not have spoken to you, sir, " said the little old lady, had not consid- cred 1t my duty to do so, just as consider 1t every ones duty to help those in dis tress My husband was an oyster dredger up at Port Jefferson, and he suffered hOr- ribly from rheumatism until an English sen captain told him to get m oblong piece Of zinc about by inches and wear | it at the small of the back.

 that my poor husband wore with such sue | cess"
 "Well, 1t is not often"-the man begaI
 when the pleasant faced old lady went
 chirping on:

 A queer, dazed look came over the man [
 face, but he handed out the quarter to th'
 little old lady, who thanked him witt
 quite a pretty smile and trotted of along

IT is a good sign that the Turkish gov ernment so far recognizes the force of public opinion in other countries as to make special efforts to discredit ths stories of outrages in Armenia. The latest of these efforts Is in the shape of an inter- view gwen out by the Turkish embassador at Rome who makes an elaborate state ment to show that the Turkish troops used lawful force 10 put down an Armenian re- volt, It is very bad sign. however, that the Turkish government refuses to let the S orieS be investigated except in it's oWn way and uoder its auspices.

GoSERNoR EVANS says that he will
ignore Judge GoFs injunction in the
matter of the shipment of liquor into
the State. While we regret that our
domestic troubles cannot be settled
among ourselves, the defiance OF a
Governor of the cannot be ap-
proved. Mr.. Evans holds the highest
Office in ths State, and If he treats an
order of the United States Court with
contempt, he ought not to be surprised
if some Of the humble subjects of the
State shall defy the enforcement OF
some of the obnoxious State laws.
The Governors course is not very
commendable, and his example IS not
calculated to inspire a very high re-
spcct for law and order. As we have
said we believe in the principle of the
citizens Of every State settling their
own domestic troubles among them
selves. Yet the constitution Of the
United States must be respected and
the Federal Courts have the right 10
construe that instrument and all citl-
zens must take the interpretations OF
the Federal Courts whether they like
it or not.

now are that there is going to be a
lively how-de-do if Gov. Evans car
ries out his intention of seizing liquor
after it gets into the State. There can
be little doubt as to his intentions as
he appointed ten new constables
Yesterday for the State and has sent
three additional ones to Charleston.
He says he expects food of liquor to
come into the State, but is determined
to seize every drop that may be dis
covered That is who the force was
increased. On the other hand 1t is
expected that whenever any seizures
are made the constables will be promp-
tly jailed for contempt and there will
come long series of legal battles up

A CURIOUS CALCULATION.
Around tho World 2O6 Times.

An eminent physician has made CURIOUS
mathematical calculation in giving the
workings of the human heart in mileage.
He shows that in lifetime of 81 years
the blood as it passes through the heart Is
thrown distance Of 5,l5O,SSO miles, which,
in continuous stream, would reach around
the world 206 times!
Keeping in view this constant strain on
the heart, and taking into consideration the
abuse it receives from over-exertlon, alco-
hoIc and other stimulants, is it any wonder
that it finally becomes affected, refuses to
perform its work, and causes death? The
fact can be readily understood that one In
four has weak heart, also the Importance OF
treating that organ as soon as its affected con-
dition is in the slightest degree manifested.
Reader, if you have any reason whatever
for believing your heart to be affected, you
should attend to it at once. Do not hesl-
tate. Many persons who die suddenly Of this
disorder have never suspected its presence.
