To-day is the anniversary OF the blrth
Of George Washington, the man who
spent the best and largest part of his
life in founding and maintaining this
republic and whose name, during all
the years of the nations history, has
been affectionately termed as the
Father Of His Country.
The celebration of this day by making
il a national holiday cannot fail 10
WELD a good influence in perpetuating
the spirit of liberty as we'll as cherishing
the memory of the man whose efforts
and life made possible this progress oil
the world. Washington was one Of the
very few who lived that not only
gained the respect and undivided love
of all parties of his own people, but
also the honor and reverence OF every
nation Of the earth. His name Is q
synonym Of patriotism and liberty ana
title of that which is purest and
great. There will probably never come
a time in the history Of the republic
as long as patriotism and love OF lid
erty reigns supreme. that this day Will
fail to be observed or the memory OF
the first patriot and the first citizen
will not be regarded with affection
and honor.
1t will be observed locally by the clos
ing Of the banks and the observance OF
holiday hours at the postoiiice. ms
evening the event will be appropriately
and periodically celebrated by eXer-
cises at the Bi-metallic hall, corner o.
Fourteenth and Market streets. when
will be decorated with the rational
cOlors for the occasion.
Col. w. w. Arnett, who has more than
a local fame for ore tory. will make the
principal address. and will De followed
by number of other speakers OF aDli-
ity. It is intended to make this a stir
ring event. and the general public is
cordially invited to be present and 90
honor to the memory Of the Father OF
His Country, and also enjoy the splen-
did oratorical bursts that are scheduled
to take place. II has been several years
since the day has been celebrated 10
cally by public addresses, and tonight s
event will undoubtedly excel similar
events in many years past.

SYSTEM MAGNATES KICK.
Say Their Clubs Are Handicapped by
the Arrangement of the Schedule.

There is not much chance of a wes-
tern club getting a high place in the
league race. They are handicapped
because the real finish is on eastern
diggings, says the Pittsburg Chronicle
Telegraph. They say that this is the
last year that a western club is going
to take the handicap of finishing in the
east for such an extreme trip. Presi-
dent Brush, of Cincinnati; Hart of Chi
cago; Pulliam. of Louisville; Won der
Abe, of st. Louis, and Robinson, Of
Cleveland, have all reached the same
conclusion, and when the time for the
next league meeting comes around
they will all be in line.
They assert that hereafter there are
going to be three trips Of each club in
stead Of two between the east and
west. There will be several advan-
tages to this, the chief, Of course, that
it will be an evener of conditions. No
club will get rooted to the home
grounds, and it will not make a great
deal of difference where the clubs go
for the last games, whether the close
comes in the east or in the west. At
the most no clubs'will be at home more
than three weeks at the close.

wheel Is a single bicycle rim, having a
four and one-half inch pneumatic tire.
The idea of the game is to drive this
play wheel from the center field,
through attack Of opponents, to goal
ahead, the riders using sticks made
especially for the game. The ends OF
the alley ways are the goals for the
respective teams. Players ride In sim
gle file and always circle to the left.
Thus the two trains are constantly
meeting and passing each other in op-
posite directions on the upper sides Of
the alley way. Experts only should
attempt this sport, excellence in which
can only be attained by those who are
thoroughly at home In the saddle.
