Indoor Athletics.

People who are interested in athletic
exercises during the winter will find
that there is real boom in indoor ath-
letics in the east this winter. The
Knickerbocker Athletic club of New
York, under the management Of Harry
Cornish, has set the pace, and there is
already more indoor sport going on Mt
that club and at others of prominence
than there has been for years. Indoor
athletics during the winter should be the
great object of all athletic olubs--in
fact, there should be just as much en-
thusiasm shown in. this as there is dis
played in the field events during the
summer months. One is just as impor.
tant to the welfare of the club as the
other. Exchange.

NEW BASEBALL RULES,
Arson viii Suggest Them, but They May
Not Materialize.

Arson Will Suggest Them, but They May
Not Materialize.
Captain Arson suggests a few changes
in the playing code of the National
league, and he offers the wisdom Of his
mind thereon to the rules committee,
which will make its report at the Feb
ruary meeting. The most startling of
these proposed innovations to the exist
ing form of playing the national game
is rule which will permit captain to
remove player from his nine and put
him back again as frequently in the
same game as 1t may be deemed to be of
advantage. AS the rule stands player
once removed cannot be used again in
that game.
There is no captain in the National
league who whisks 80 many players
from his team during the game, nor so
frequently, and replaces them from the
reserve material on the bench as does
Arson. He discovers players tempo
rary weakness almost the minute it Is
developed, and he seldom loses time or
strains sympathy and sentiment in send
ing such player to the bench. Under a
new RUE SUCH as Nc suggests MI All
sons Colts would be shuffled around the
diamond like the figures of chess
board. Still, there is good sound sense
to back up the Chicago chief in his ideas
of what this rule should be, and it
might be well to give it trial.
Captain Arson also wants the trapped
ball restored to use. 1t was legislated
into Oblivion several years ago by max
ing an infield fly an out whether the
fly is caught or not. The rule was aimed
especially at McPhee and Pfeffer, who
worked the trapped ball to perfection,
whereas nearly all the other second base.
men and short stops failed frequently
when they tried it. The deadly advan-
tage which McPhee and Pfeffer had in
this play came when runners were at
first and second bases and fly went to
the infield. That put the base runners
'twixt the devil and the deep sea.
Should they run on the fly, the ball was
caught, and both would be forced before
they could return, but should they hug
their bases the fly would be trapped and
they were forced again. New York

AERIAL Ma CATION.
The Invention Made by Two San
Francisco Men.

The Invention Made by Two San
Francisco Men.
Leonard E. Clawson and Adam Beck,
cisco, believe they have solved the problem
Of aerial navigation. They have just made
application for patents on the device which
they think will overcome the obstacles
that have heretofore resisted the efforts of
inventors and are at work now on the
construction of an airship or flying ma
chine embodying the principles they have
studied out
The machine now in process of con-
struction consists essentially of four rods,
each twenty feet long, parallel TO each
other. working on ball bearings in a we'll
braced frame work supporting the motive
power and steering apparatus below. On
each of II ese rods is a series of double
wings constructed of a steel wire frame
work over which silk is stretched. These
are so arranged in relation to each other
that when one wing is rising open the
other Is de scending closed and also main
tains the balaEce of the machine; thus
half the wings are at every instant press
ing downward, while the other half are
rising but not pressing upward. Should
the motive power for any reason give out
the entire wing surface instantly forms
a parachute. ia
A machine twenty feet long and with a
bearing surface six feet wide, it is believed,
can be made to raise a weight of 600 pounds
and one occupant alone supplying the ,ac-
tive power. ,uzsr.

A DOUBLE SUICIDE.
Two STRANGERS Go - a Nebraska Hete

Two STRANGERS Go ~ a Nebraska Hetel
and Turn or the Gas.
A mysterious double suicide has occurred
at Grand Island Neb. Two .well-dressed
men arrived in that city from the east and
inquired for the best hotel in the city and
only one registered, saying one would do
for both. The name on the register is
very vague, evidently made so purposely,
but it looks like r. A Newcome. and the
residence as Billings, Mont.
About noon yesterday the two men were
found in their room dead. All the gas jets
in the room were open full. and one Jet
placed very high up and of which no possi-
bic use could have been made for lighting
purposes, was also open
Neither had any baggage other than a
small grip, which contained nothing but
two shirts and a few collars. They were
all new and bore the stamp of a Chicago
hrm- With this exception there Is nothing
to indicate whence they came.
The coroner's jury could obtain no light
on the case. and returned a verdict of sui
eide. Both are tall, fne-looking men, dress
ed In dark suits. One had a full beard, and
was of sandy complexion, and probably
five years the senior of the other. There
were no papers IN the pockets of their
clothes, though ashes in the toilet bowl
suggest that some papers had been de-
stroyed. A Baptist college student from
Scotia, Neb.. thought he recognized the
bodies as those of two merchants of that

Against American Flour.

AS an illustration of the unfair and con-
sc.enceless methods that a certain element
among British millers are using in the eff
fort to stop the growing importation of
American flour, United States Consul
Taney, at Belfast. has forwarded to the
Department of State extracts from Irish
trade papers making the broad charge that
all of the American flour is adulterated
According to this remarkable statement
the adulterant is cornmeal, which is so
finely ground to defy detection when
mixed with flour. The very whiteness and
purity OF our flour is cited in proof of the
charge for it is said that as the British
miilers can make only yellow flour from
Indian wheat. the Americans must add the
ccrnmeal. which is of blueish tint as a
corrective to make their flour white. The
consul says this sort of argument is used
In different parts of the kingdom with evil

Spirited Address of the Late President
of Union Seminary.


of Union Seminary.
After the meeting of the directors of the
Union Theological Seminary in New York
Wednesday afternoon, at which DR.. Charles
c. Hall of Brooklyn was unanimously elect
ed president to succeed Rev. DR.. Hastings
who resigned, DIR. Hall met the directors
and faculty of the institution at an infor-
NAL reception, held In the library OF the
seminary building, at which some interest
ing allusic1s were made as to the probable
policy Of the institution under it's head
After congIatulating the students upon
the election Of DR.. Hall, DIR. Hastings al
luded to the feeling on the part of the fac
ton in tfe church which had become op-
posed to the institution during his admin
istration. DIR. Hastings continued: '1f those
who oppose us think they are going to
gain anything against the Independent feel
ing of this seminary by the selection of
DR.. Hall, they will be mistaken.
DR. Hall has been with me all through
these years of conflict and trial. and
know that he has stood like q rock. If
there is anything that l hate 1t is a cow
ard. especially an ecclesiastical coward. 1
like to see men take manly stand and
think that people will see that have been
nothing to what DIR. Hall will be in facing
all enemies, whether 1t be a session, pres
bytery or even a general assembly.
THE church will find that We are all
right. They have got to keep their hands
means to govern itself in spite of any pres
bytery or general assembly"
The students applauded these sentiments
ard DR.. Hall said on being introduced that
he could say: Amen to all that Dr. Hast
ings had said. He denied, however, mean
ing to employ q beiligerent spirit toward
any individual or body Of individuals, and
said that the institution would be a peace
loving and peace-seeking one.
I'VE do not attack or disparage other
persons reaching conclusions differing
from our own in matter of doctrine or
life but what we shall welcome is sim
liar manifestation of Christian courtesy on
the part of brethren in the church every
