THE sOOR0HBR is SELFISH.
So Says the Rev. Claude Rabofeau in
n Sarnan

The Rev. Claude Raboteau preached a
prelude on the bicycle Sunday evening.
1T is remarkable" he said, shat in
these fin de steele days that we find some
who oppose the fascinating recreation of
the wheel. But such conservatism is
rare and entirely out of place. However,
with all the advantages and blessings
contributed by the wheel there are a few
evils which demand immediate attention
and a successful remedy. Among the
reputable riders of the bicycle an ele-
ment has crept In from the street loafers
and rowdy element. Undoubtedly the
right to ride the wheel belongs to all
regardless of social station, but ruffian-
ism on a wheel lhastbecome a menace to
the order of the community.
1.-THE scorcher is the auintessence of
selishness; he is a mean, inconsiderate
ruffian whom the police should serve as
he deserves. If the law was strictly en-
forced there would be less rowdfes ON the
wheel. 1t has become dangerous for a
cyclist to wheel alone in some sections
of h Boulevard for fear of being at
tackled by footpads and sneak thieves,
who, under the guise of scorchers, knock
the unWary bicyclist down, rob him and
escape before assistance comes. To run
these human hyenas Town demands an
immediate patroling of these outlying
sections with mounted police.
THE profanity and swearing issues
from the lips of these rowdies like lava
from a smoking volcano. A father would
shrink to have his daughter, or a hus-
band his wife, come across the path of
these profane DULLES; but yet the only
thoroughfare of our city is infested with
nh aGn 1nW horn apn1f ~ O Tha
should demand that the Boulevard be
and children may enjoy to their hearts
content the fascinating spot that God, in
his goodness, has permitted US to pos
sesS.
1T is not mine to say whether you
should wide on Sunday or not, but if
you must ride, and can't ride any other
time, don't hurt your soul 50 that it
can't enjoy the sanctuary, or weary your
bodies SO that 1t can't discharge your
obligations the mex day. We nave not
only the Sunday newspapers as a foe to
the prosperity Of the church, but we have
the Sunday wheel. a far more dangerous
one. God intended man to rest one day
and not to wheel To wheel thirty or
forty minutes IS not rest. So while the
churches have Slim congregations to hear
the gospel of The Son of God, the Boule-
ward, lanes and roads are thronged with
young and old who ought to be at church.
1t is better far for the wheel to go than
to forget our duties we owe the church.
1t is to be feared from the way some peo-
pie use the Sabbath that they wished It
had never been made.

Athletics In the West.

The college track-athletic season is just
about opening in the middle West. At
Wisconsin, and Michigan and Minnesota
particularly there is increased activity
this year. and indeed never before has
there been such widespread interest shown
by. universities, colleges and high schools.
At the head there is the Western inter-
collegiate A. A. A., and behind it many
lesser State and interseholastic leagues.
Yet the need of a few energetic officials is
apparent. The trouble seems to be hat
the administration is entirely in under
graduate hands, and is therefore despl-
tory and incompetent. The colleges menu
bering the w. /. A. A. A. have been so
busy watching one another tina the Off
Gals of the Association, in the two years
of the latter's existence, have failed to
rise superior to college ~partisanship, and
legislate on a broad basis for the good
of Western track athletics. Perhaps,
as the sportsman's spirit grows stronger,
this defect may be remedied without re-
sorting to the extensive graduate advisory
h%ureaux, which have become %ponderous in
the East, without invariably disposing of
schooi-boy squabbles and methods.
AT present, however, undergraduate

THE SUICIDE BURNED NO MONEY

It having been decided that there is
not a sufficient quantity of the ashes
suspected of coming from money burned
by Griecheimer, the Noble street
suicide, to subject it to q test, the son
of the deceased has now come to the
conclusion thai his father burned no
money. but if he had any sent it to his
sister in Germany as he had frequently
threatened to do. It was several months
ago when he drew $500 from the Green
vile Building and Loan Association, n
no one knows how much of that he
spent, and the story of his drawing $500
from the bank lacks confirmation.
The members of the family are settling
down to the conviction that they know
as much about his disposal of the none

49,
A large attendance saw the game on
the st. George Cricket Grounds, Hobo
ken, yesterday, between the Fultons, am
ateur champions Of Brooklyn for a num-
Der of years, and the Hobokens. The rep
utation of the visitors was sufficient to
awaken a strong interest. and everyone
expected a lively game. They were in a
measure disappointed. The Fultons are
very much overestimated or else the clubs
of Brooklyn are very easy. as the Hobo
kens outplayed them at every point, and
beat them by a one-sided score, coming
within one of shutting them out. Don
Clare, the we'll known pitcher, lis the
captain of the F%ultons, but he played or
first base yesterday, and allowed Wig
gins to do the twirling. off whom the
Hobokans made eleven hits, which aided
by five bases on balls assisted the Hobo
kens to make fourteen runs. The bat
ting Of Moorehead of the home team was
the feature. He made a hit every time
he went to the bat. The Hobckens start
ed in with four runs in the first inning
and tailed in every inning but two dur
ing the game. Terry pitched a wonder
fully strong game for Hoboken and only
gave three hits. He did not give a single
base on balls. He gained fine support in
the field, only two errors being charged
against the team. The score follows

Lacrosse League a Hard One.
The lacrosse championship of the In
tercollegiate Association was won Satur-
day at South Bethlehem, Pa, by Lehigh
University over Stevens Institute OF
Hoboken. 1t was the greatest game ever
played for the trophy, and the success of
Lehigh was gained by a evry narrow mar
gin. Stevens started the practice season
in poor condition, and there was much
encouragement among the member of
the Athletic Association, but the improve
ment in the players was remarkable, and
never has a team shown greater persever-
ance than the Stevens eleven in their
work. Every Instruction of the profess
sional crack was followed out, and from a
very weak team less than five weeks ago
the players have become the strongest ag-
gregation in this part of the country.
They have won over such teams as Har-
yard and Johns Hopkins Universities, and
played a tie with Crescent A. C. of
Brooklyn. The Stevens boys expected
to beat Lehigh but failed by one goal,
after making one of the strongest attacks
OF any team upon the Lehigh field. Over
5.000 people saw the game, many of whom
lar the trip from Hoboken. At the end
OF the first half the score was a tie, two
goals for each team, Lehigh made a
great effort early In the second halt
ana scored two goals in quick succession.
stevens o~utp1ayed them after that and
scored a goal, but although they kept
Lehlgh on the defensive, the Stevens boys
We're unable to get the ball through the
posts, and the game esulted in a score
OF four goals to three in Lehighs favor.
