ACADEMY TRACK MEETING.
Postponed Games Outdoors Were Not
Specially Notable.

The Academy boys had their winter
track athletic meeting, Monday after
noon, upon the outdoor board track.
The games were to have taken place
Saturday afternoon; but, on account of
the rain, they were postponed until Mon
day.
Comparatively little interest was man
ifested in the various events, as there
was no class championship, or anything
Of that sort involved in the meet, The
races. for the most part, were poor. But
the team race between the freshmen and
junior classes was closely contested, and
brought out about the only concerted
cheering of the day.
stiff breeze blew across the track,
which told against the men in the dis
tances. In the 4O-yard dash, run off on
the short board track in front Of the
srandstand, the wind was at the back
of the contestants thus enabling Duffy
the winner, to cover the distance in So
seconds, a new Academy record for that
distance.
The team race was the next to the last
event upon the program. The two teams
were '0l, Hills, Kinsley, Abercrombie
and Duffy; SO, Edmands, Brown Cros-
by and Wells. On the first of the 9O0-yard
relay Hills got lead of about Is yards
IN the TWO laps, and Kinsley opened up
still bigger gap over Brown. The third
relay consisted of Abercrombie and
Crosby. For lap Abercrombie held the
lead his predecessors had made, and
then Crosby came on with a squirt and
cut it down 10 yards The '99 men staked
their faith upon Duffy to beat Wells
and he did the trick, although Wells ran
by far the faster relay and had the dis
tance been few yards longer the juni-
crs would surely have been defeated.
The field events were held in the GYM
nasium Friday afternoon. The result Of
the track events was as follows:

Kimbrough Is ft), I'd; Spear Is ft9, Sd.

AN ANNUAL RACE.
High School Grew May Enter
Ten Year Agreement,
And Row the Harvard freshmen Crew on
Lake G oIins'g mond Local Alumni
to Offer the Trophy.

Now that the crew promises to be as
much of a fixture in high school ath-
letics as either the interscholastc track
athletic team or the foot ball eleven,
those who are most interested in the
crews welfare have been looking about
for some crew in the high schools class
with which t2 arrange a permanent, an
nual race,
Up to the present time it has been
kept pretty quiet Nevertheless, some
good work has been put in, and it is
now believed that in the course of
couple of weeks the details of arrange
ment can be made public
If present plans do not miscarry, the
Worcester high school will have as It's
annual antagonist the freshmen crew of
Harvard University The two crews
rowed last year, and, while the college
men Won it was no walkover, and the
high school lads made them row every
foot Of the way. Ii is likely, too, that
the crews will come together on the
Maters of Lake Quinsigamond again
this year.
AS was announced in the Spy Monday
morning, Capt. Frank H. Bigelow of the
Harvard team is to consult with the
rowing authorities at Harvard relative
TO this years race. In addition. he is
also one Of those interested in carrying
through the annual race scheme
OF course, if an annual race is ar
ranged, it will be for term of years;
and, to stimulate interest, some trophy
TO become the permanent property of
the crew winning it the greatest num-
ber of times in the stipulated term of
years. would have to be offered.
Provision for this has already been
considered. 1t is the scheme to have
the Harvard freshmen and the high
school enter into a ten years agree
ment to row a 11a-mile race each year
some time during the month Of June
upon Lake Quinsigamond, The trophy
for which they will compete will be an
elegant silver loving cup to be presented
for competition by prominent high
school and Harvard alumni in this city.
Whether the agreement will go into eff
feet for the race this year. or not until
1899, has not as yet been decided.
In case the agreement goes through
without a hitch, it would do much to
stimulate rowing at the school, and
should add considerably to the schools
already strong athletic prestige. The
high school crew already has its shell
and rowing machines, so the cost of
maintaining the crew from year to year
would not be very great.

duty to give all the glory to God. This
is the trumpet call of Oliver Cromwell.
IN the hour of victory and it is the
clarion's note that rings divnely sweet
in the harmonies of Milton's verse
The story was then told of Satan's
fall from the position of the first arch
angel through all the various stages of
the two days battle i'm heaven; his fall
ing flight THROUGH chaos: his
nine days in the burning lake;
Of the Stygian council and the
debate in Pandemonium; of Satan's
attempt to find the new world; Of his
success; of the ruin of our first parents;
of his return to Pandemonium and of
his conversion with all his crew into
kissing serpents.
The grand characteristics of Satan
were then described His pride, hate
full as pride is among men, in him is
drawn in such colossal proportions as
to be grand. His anger is superb. The
three characteristics of jealousy envy
and revenge are drawn in Miltonic pro-
portions. He has rompunctions of con-
science. and would repent but one of
the noblest characteristics Of humanity
stands in his way Satan was loyal to
his friends, TO those who had put their
confidence in him, and he would not be-
tray them. HIS most attractive char-
acteristic is his courage, but his cour-
age is satanic It is not Ike the cour-
age Of the Seraph Abdial. One is based
upon perverted will the other on deep
convictions Of right.
The moral Of Paradise Lost is very
simple. It is a great sermon on the
text. "The soul that sinneth it snail
die" and proclaims the great truth.
that no strength, be ii satanic human
or angelic, can come to a knowledge of
the truth without God; that sin is weak
ness and engenders greater weakness
until even the angelic becomes a brute
physically, Intellectually and morally.
Do you ask me who the hero OF the
Paradise Lost is? 1t certainly is not
the ruined archangel who became the
emperor of hell, and by progressive de-
terioration, a kissing serpent nor is it
the "Filial Godhe3d" nor our great
Progenitor Probably Milton never
thought of a hero for his heroic song.
If he had been asked he would have
been not a little surprised, and would
have replied in the words that Oliver
Cromwell sent to the speaker Of the
house Of commons from the battlefield,
announcing the great victory at Nase
by: Sir, this is none other but the
hand of God; and to him alone belongs
the glory"
The lecture was Illustrated by ample
quotations from the descriptive parts of
Paradise Lost, and the speeches and
soliloquies of Satan.

OF FOOD.
English Arc Adopts in the business
Especially of Sauces
and Jams.

From time to time n reads so much
In the newspapers concerning the
adulteration of American food, says
an eminent New York analytical chem
ist, that the average consumer might
be tempted to believe that this is the
only country in which such fraud and
deception is practiced. But this Is far
from being the truth, for during a re-
cent visit to England l had occasion to
test the quality of various eatables
there. and the result was that found
they contain a much larger percentage
of deleterious matter than Il W
products possess.
For instance, bottled fruits are in
England colored green by the addi-
ton of copper in the form of the sup
phate C"bluestone"). y knife blade
Immersed in the juice of the fruit Will
RAPIDLY become coated with a bright
deposit of metallic copper. The Eng
lish have not adopted the simple n
harmless plan which the French have
of giving an apparent green color to
their preserved fruits and olives by
the use of bottles made of green glass.
Sauces, potted meats and fish are con-
stantlv adulterated or coiored by
means of Armenian bile. This is done
partIv from custom, but chiefly to con-
zeal the dirty appearance of the pastes
and sauces. The British public VIII
have its anchovy red. The I'M
| colored sauce is unstable, though the
| superior to the red abomination, the
filth being removed from the former,
while in the latter it is merely con-
| cealed by the Armenian bile. Jams are
adulterated by the mixture OF inferior
fruits. Marmalade frequently contains
! epple pulp or even turnips. Colorlng
matter and artificial favorings are
freely used.
An ingenious industry goes on large
" in London which is wholly unsus-
pected by the public. Raspberrles, or
anges and other fruits are purchased
by the wholesale chemists and the
mice extracted. Then the pulp IS
bought al a low price by the manu-
facturers of cheap jams for fiavorlrg
and placed upon the market as "fine
new season jam" or marmalade. Mus
tard is adulterated with -four and
tumeric; pepper with husks of seeds
and anv kind of dust that handy
to the dishonest vender. So that the
business of the drug grinder offers just
as much temptation to the adulterator
in England as it does in America

ANSWERED.
Several Witnesses Testify In Answer -
Charges Made by q signal
Corps Patient.

Admission, Ala, Oct. 25.-Replyins
to charges made by a signal corps pa
tent in the Chickamauga hospital, DIR.
Drake said he had seen maggots on
one occasion in a box in the hospital,
but never on patients. Often the men
caIne there lousy, but they did not re-
main so. Replying to charges con
corning the furloughing and shipment
of members of the Eighth and Four
teenth New York regiments, he said
the men of the two regiments had not
wanted to travel together, and tina
the delay in shipping those OF the
Eighth had been due to the fact that
after he had secured transportation
for them over the Pennsylvania line, a
major in their regiment changed b
order so as to secure transportation
over a more circuitous route.
Regarding the i~nsinuation that he
had tried to favor the Southern rail-
road because he had been the chief
of that line, he said he had
not been connected with the road
since 1897.
Maj. Joseph Heatwole, chief COM
missary of subsistence, said the quail
ity of the rations had been excellent.
AS for the quantity, a man would v
to be a gormandizer to eat it.
Gen. Pogue read a letter from DIR.
Suman, of New York, who was before
the commission in Washington, in
which he corrected an error in his tes-
timony. He stated that he had re-
ceived only the regular army rations
for the convalescents on the steamer
OLDHAM from Porto Rico to New York.
He says hat such supplies as had
been received up to the night previous
to sailing had been received from the
relief societies.
During the night" he continued,
"the hospital ship Relief arrived, and
early the next morning 1 boarded the
Relief and personally secured without
any requisition the additional supplies
named in the receipt signed by me.
Until my conference Sunday with Maj.
Bradley 1 believed these supplies, like
many others, were bought by outside
organizations and were not army
supplies"
The letter is dated October 16, and
is directed to the surgeon-general OF

WILL NOT BE E~XTRADITED.
A Defect in the Law May Save Mrs. Bot
kIn's Neck IL Guilty of the Muir
ders Charged Against Her.

San Francisco, Oct. 25.-Mrs. o
della Botkin will not be extradited to
the state of Delaware. If she is to be
tried for the murder of Mrs. John L.
Dunning, the trial will take place in
this state. Such was the conclusion
reached by Superior Judges Cook, Wal
Iace, Seawell, Trout and Borden Apon
the writ of habeas corpus sued by Mrs.
Botkin's attorney. The decision was
rendered yesterday.
There yet remains the question
whether or not Mrs. BOtkin a legal
" be held for trial here under section
20 of the penal code, which gives,
among persons liable to punishment
under the laws of this state, a per-
sons who commit in whole or in part
any crime within this state" Upon
the construction of this section, Judge
Carroll Cooke alone will near argu-
ments. So no final order was made on
the writ yesterday. Judge Cook mere
ly ordered a continuance until Satur.
day.
With regard to the section named
uDOn HIS HOIiOI . uCSAoAOA "A
Mrs. Botkin's fate, so far as a trial
here is concerned.
The five judges, in holding that Mrs.
Botkin can not, under the law, be ex-
tradited, simply decide that the legis-
lature has unfortunately omitted to
provide for just such cases as that OF
| Mrs. Botkin. Under the law as it now
stands, she is not a fugitive from JUS
tice, having never set foot in Della
ware; nor is there any way in which
she can be extradited. The judges
say that this omission can be rectiied
by act of congress, but until this is
done the law must be held to be de-
fective in this respect.
All parties interested were in court
when the decision was given. The
opinion of the court was written by
Judge Cook and concurred in by all
his associates. Judge Cook read the
decision.
