President Marti's Successor.

PHILADELPHIA, June 2S.-Word was
received in this city to-day from Cuba to
the effect that General Bartholomew Maso
in all probability had been elected provision
al President of the republic of Cuba, in
place Of the late President Marti. The cleo
ton for President was begun on June 25
and ended to-day. A vote was taken by the
men in the field and forwarded to General
Gomez as fast as the balloting was COM
pleted. Up until the time the news was
sent from Cuba ii was learned that a prac-
tically unanimous vote was being cast for
General Maso. Marti, prior to his departure
for Cuba, was also the head of the Cuban
revolutionary party in this country, with
the title of delegate" His death, there
fore. necessitated an election to fill that va
cancy. To accomplish this, a convention
will be held in New York on July 10, at
which time there will be fifty-two delegates
present from all parts of the United States.
In addition to the election of a delegate,
this convention will also provide for the
creating OF a loan to aid the insurgents. 1t
is expected that Senior Thomas Estrada
Palma, a son of the President of Cuba dur
ing the former revolution, will be placed at
the head of the party.

GAME OF THE FUTURE |
Football Will Hereafter Divide the
HonorS With Baseball in America.

Football will divide the favor of
Young America with baseball hereaf-
ter. 1t is just the same for a robust
strong young fellow chock full of vim
ana go, who finds II the best kind of
SAFETY valve for his redundant energy.
!. is not a game for weaklings, but
played according to rule there is moth
ing brutal about II. 1t is true that
players are In danger Of having an arm
broken, or rib cracked, or an eye black
ed once In a while, but what player
worthy OF the name would care for a
little personal disaster provided it aid
. ca his team to victory or even impeded
the triumph of his opponents.
The prime object of all athletic
games. and the one which should never
be lost sight OF, is to make men strong,
brave and enduring. All animals are
more or less competitive, but man is
their chief. and wise old mother nature
has made him the most combat tive of
all living creatures He needs in the
business OF life, In which competition
Is so KEEN all the various kinds of
training which tend to make him, both
IN mind and his body. healthy, vigor-
Gus, self reliant and pers avering For
young men or proper physique there is
no game better fitted to obtain these
devoutedly to be wished for qualifica-
tions for the battle of life than foot
ball.
On the memorable Saturday when
yale defeated Princeton and Harvard
downed the "Pennsys," IL is estimated
that within a radius of $50 miles of
the metropolis fully 200 games of foot
ball were played. Forty thousand peo-
pie saw the Yale-Princeton game, and
about half as many that between Har-
ward and the University Of Pennsyl-
venia. Estimating the spectators of
each of the other games at 500, which
Is low average, 1t will be seen that
fully 100000 people left their ordinary
avocations that afternoon to witness
football. 1t is perhaps fortunate for
professional baseball that the football
season follows it. instead Of dividing
public attention with 1t.
Several critics have cavilled at the |
fact that large numbers OF gentle la |
dies lent the sanction of their charm |
ing presence to these games and there |
have been some far-fetched compari- |
sons Of their conduct with that of the |
Roman ladies on the gladia torial con-
tests In the Coliseum. Oddly enough, |
the papers which made these COMPARE
sons devoted the most space to de-
scriptions of the games. They remind

be our motto. II is far better to be
beaten honorably than to win by trick
or fraud. Let us have a rule which
will clearly define amateurism, and
then let US live right up to it. Clubs
and athletes not willing to do this
should leave off masquerading as anna
tours.
In his speech at the Cardiff banquet
Lord Dunraven stated that on the first
day of the last Americas cup races
there was a fleet of 200 steamers in at
tendance carrying $4,000 people. BY
actual count made from the hurricane
deck of the Richard Peck, there were
only III. Nearly one-third of this num-
Der were steam yachts, steam launches
and schooner yachts in tow of tugs
which carried only their owners and a
few friends. Another third was COM
posed of the tugs of newspapers and of
private parties which did not carry 100
passengers each. OF the remainder.
about 10 steamers averaged $500 pas
sengers apiece. Altogether, 1t was es-
timated at the time that from 80 900 to
10000 people saw the race from the at
tending ffotilla. 1t is plainly evident
that Dunraven Is a rattlebrained sort
of person, not at all careful about his
facts. and not over scrupulous about
making assertions to bolster up his

was fairly and squarely beaten by the
Defender. His charge that the Ameri-
can vessel was submerged below her
proper water line is not only false but
ridiculous. 1t is a charge against the
honor of the highest class of sports
men in America, made months after
the races: made, too, because its refu-
tation can only be made ex parxe, and
therefore will give its maker an ex-
cuse for his defeat which will be ac-
cepted by rabid English partisans. The
committee appointed to sift the noble
% earrs charges is not by any means
anti-English. Its methods
so far have been decidedly Anglican.
Its chairman has stated that the mat
ter before Ii is one that concerns the
New York Yacht club only, and he
does not intend assuring the public of
any of its proceedings or findings until |
1t reports to the club. Technically he |
is right. but / wish he had taken a
broader view of the matter. The honor |
Of America is at stake as we'll as that |

will naturally look with distrust upon |
methods which ignore their interest |

The Former Causes the Latter, So Says .
Chiropodist.
From the Philadelphia Times.
A chiropodist who numbers among
his patients many of the wealthiest and
most fashionable people. declares he Is
glad OF the spread of the cycling craze.
When asked why this was so. he an
swered:
I'm the first place the majority of
women ride in shoes entirely too tight
and too narrow for them, and this
causes great Irritation. Then they ped
al with the ball of the foot instead of
with the center, and their toes are
thrown out of joint. When ones foot
Is distointed IL Is just as painful as a
fractured arm, and you may be sure
that the sufferer is glad enough to rush
to chiropodist. If women would only
learn to ride in broad-toed, thick-soled
shoes a trifie too large for them, and
would bring their weight on the center
or the foot, wheeling would strengthen
their feet and ankles instead OF getting
them out of gear. / believe that after
a while this sport will bring about a
revolution in women's shoes"
When the chiropodist's ideas were re-
peated to dealer in shoes, he said:
bicycling has already caused one
department in women's footwear Wo-
men still cling to the pointed toes, but
they call for much thicker soles than
formerly, even in dress boots So far
that is the only change. but there is
no telling what others the bike and
time will work"

Drinking Men Live Longer Than Total
Abstainers In England.

Abstainers In England.
| From the Boston Transcript
We have not the figures at hand but It
was shown by life insurance statistics
| published in Great Britain a few years
ago that total abstainers from intoxi-
eating drinks were shorter lived than
the moderate drinkers among policy
| holders. and now comes the International
Medical association with statistics In the
same direction. but more startling. The
association has made careful inquiry into
5234 cases of deaths of persons OF IS
years of age and of all callings, which
were divided into five groops-total alb
stainers, moderate drinkers, drinkers who
were careful not to drink too much,
heavy drinkers, excessive drinkers. The
investigation showed that the age reach
ed in these five classes was always the
shortest with total abstainers: they were
shorter lived than the excessive drinkers
With regard to wine drinkers the results
were: Moderate drinkers, 60 years; heavy,
but careful. drinkers. IS years: excessive
drinkers, SO years: abstainers. 50 years
1t has been said that statistics can be
made to prove anything you want to
prove, but In this instance, as well as in
the insurance figures. they seem to prove
what collecting the statistics had no in
tention or desire to prove II does not
necessarily follow. however, that the use
OF intoxicants, even moderately, is con-
ductive to longevity. The statistics only
show that, with a good constitution at
the outset, one may attain a more ad-
vanced age than is reached by a person
Of feeble physique. though the latter be a
total abstainer but we think II will be
found from observation and inquiry that
a very large proportion Of the abstainers
are abstainers because they knew II in
early life that they were not physically
strong enough to wrestle with King Ac-
cohol, and another large class of nom
drinkers are the sons of drinking parents
whose sins. as well as their lettering ex-
ample, have descended to their children
and so shortened the latters' lives
The statistics quoted are misleading
as they do not show what the
state of the health OF each class was IN
early life. and especially because they do
not tell anything of the habits of the
parents of the individuals in the several
classes. A man may drink to excess.
