A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT.
A few nights ago the writer witnessed
a magnificent sight in the northeast

about the size of the head OF -four

It's motion was not a smooth or regular
one but In places as that of an OBJECT

affairs upon more modern and BUSH

The Annual Football Sermon.

The season of the foot ball sermon is
with us once again. 1t is due when
the season of the sport is ended. when
hope of better things has opportunity
to assert itself and when the player is
in much the same condition of repen-
lance. what with his bruises and gem
eral soreness. that the convivialist is
when he wakes to a full realization of
the difference in the morning.
The game was entered upon this fall
with considerable assurance that the
most Objectionable features had been
eliminated, or at least modified, that
the crushing impact of flying wedges
and "mass'' plays would be less severe.
but now that the icy winds of winter
have swept the dust from the frozen
gridiron it appears to have also cleared
the eyes of critics and there is no
dearth of suggestion as to how the
game should be played next year. In
deed it is still said that more are killed
in playing football than in prize fight
ing and with truth, for one or more
fatalities in the former game have
been reported this year whereas no pu-
gilist has talked himself to death
within the memory of man.

All patrons of the national game will,
we feel sure. be delighted with the
news that a Princeton professor has
inveaited a gun that will shoot grape
vine curves over the plate without af-
fording the batsman the slightest hope
of securing first on balls. The delight
is not so much on account of this in
vention in and of itself, although with
dynamite for a propelling force it
might become a formidable factor in
the game, but for the possibility it
seems to prophesy that sometime in
the dim recesses of the future inven
tive genius may successfully grapple
with the problem of how to make UNI
pires to order. Nature has. all will
agree, been somewhat remiss in this
respect, at least has never given us
the perfected article. The qualities
essential in the perfect production can
easily be enumerated by all familiar
withthe game but for those, whose ex-
perience runneth not beyond that of
three old cats, we would simply say
that no inventor need apply until he
shalt.l have produced specimen that
shall.be as unerring in decisions as a
synchronzed clock. deaf to protests,
trumpet-toned in announcement. kick
able but indestructible, incorruptible
and Interchangeable. These seem to be
among the prime essentials but we
shall expect the genius needed to en-
compass the result to be able to sug-
gest others and do the filling in and
polishing off that shall be pleasing in
the eyes of the grandstand.

NEWSPAPERS IN RUSSIA.
Journals Of Age and Influence in the Cars
Oominions.
(From the New York SUM


Newspapers printed in the Russian
language are not circulated nor read
generally in the United States, and
any one who has ever made even a cur
sorry examination of a Russian news
paper printed in Russian characters
can see at a glance why, so far as this
country is concerned. they do not ''fill
a long felt want" In the naming of
Russian newspapers such journalistic
titles as Sun. Gazette, Press, Observer,
Star, Courier, Bulletin Advertiser and
Eagle do not prevail. but in place of
these more descriptive titles are used.
The humorous newspaper of ST. Peters,
burg is called The Weekly Schut, or
translated, The Fool. The medical
journal of st. Petersburg, published
under authority of the war office. is
the Russian Invalid. The official
morning newspaper of Moscow is The
Niedomosti Gorodskoo Politsii. other
wise The Police Gazette. The Russian
newspaper best known in this country
is the Daily Novoye vremya. or the
New Times, of ST. Petersburg.
One of the illustrated ST. Petersburg
weeklies is called The Neva, after the
river which flows through that capital.
and the two weekly newspapers longest
established in the city of Moscow are
the Boudilnik and The Krougozor,
otherwise The Alarmer and The Hor-
lion. For some reason which is not
very clear. the word 'wiedomisti' -
meaning news" is popular as a news
paper designation in the city; of Mos
COW. There are four daily newspapers
in Moscow having this title-The Rus
sian News. Modern News, Moscow
News and Old News. The Old News
is maintained for the republication of
articles from other newspapers. There
are, perhaps. some newspapers in the
United States worthy of being called
the Old News. but it is certain that
there is no newspaper in the United
States which formally and voluntarily
would assume that title.
The official newspaper of Warsaw is
The Warsaw Police Gazette. and the
word gazette" (gazeta) is as popular
with Warsaw editors as the word
news is in Moscow. There are the
Warsaw Palice Gazette. the Warsaw
Polish Gazette. the Warsaw Gazette.
the Warsaw German Gazette and the
Warsaw Gazette Courier. The Gazette
Courier makes a speciality of teleg-
raphic information. and is not. there
fore. properly speaking, gazette
courier. whose title comes from the
days of mail coaches and newspaper
deliveries by messengers on horseback.
