The basketball team OF the Queer
Wheelmen is somewhat disappointed over
the result of the last game with the In
fantry which they expected TO win, and
one of the enthusiasts said: while the
Infantry won it is my. opinion that our
gingery players outpiayed the soldiers,
but luck was not on our side. We deserv-
ed to win on the merits of the game.
Talking about luck. did you see the lucky
rebound OF Shreve's free throw in the
first half and in the second half with the
score tie at 6 to 6 and only three min
utes more to play? The ball was directly
under the basket and a peculiarly lucky
play won for the Infantry Having de-
livered himself thusly, the enthusiast
wept.
The Queers were unlucky in goaling, for
they had chances without number. Buck
ley, Lotus and Campbell were the for
wards" who made it interesting for the
infantry defence and with Tierney as CEN
tire and Abel, Sears and Scheringham-
mer as backs" the team has few superiors
in the League. a. I s.aa
A complete reorganization of the Queers
will take place shortly. A number of ap-
plications for membership have already
been received. Under the capable man
agement of R. B. Clokey and l.. o. Slack,
the hustling managers of the basketball
team, the club will again assume the high
rank it held few years ago as one of the
most progressive bicycle clubs in the city.
1t is proposed to tender the basketball
team a big banquet at the end Of the
League season. The honor will be con-
ferred not only for playing such clever
game with all teams, but for the remarka-
BILE squirt which turned defeat into victory
in the game with the Corcorans.

4 special two-mile race has been ar
ranged for the Grant brothers and it will
undoubtedly be a sensational race. The
last time they met was last month in
New York in a five-mile race, which the

feet, about one stride, in a magnificent fin
ish. They will be here on March IL to par

Basketball League Standing.
During the lull in the Basketball League
series, caused by the occupancy of the In
fantry Armory by the cycle show. the
several teams will, during this week, put
in the time in hard practice preparing for
a reopening of the series on March s. At
this stage OF the game the Infantry stands
leader of the League with ten games won
and none lost, and so far has played
through three seasons without defeat ex-
cept at the hands of Yale. The Corcorans,
next nearest, are fighting hard to keep in
second place, with the CAROLS close up
and the rest all cleverly punched with the
exception of the Mount Peasants, who
have been most unfortunate and have only
one victory TO their credit.
The following table compiled from the
records of Scorer ]. B. Baker, one of the
most efficient officials the League has ever
had. is of interest just about now and in
shows in the last two columns the number
of points scored by each club and those
made by their opponents in the games

day evening last between the CAROLS and

Santiago Climate.

tFrom the Chicago Record
There is but little variation the year
around in the temperature of Santiago's
climate. 1t is always hot to the citizen Of
the United States, and during the summer
months the heat is almost uncomfortable 70
those reared in the North. The weather is
comparatively pleasant for six months. be-
ginning with November. The remaining
six months comprise the rainy season."
The heaviest rainfalIs are during the early
summer. Then it is that fever and pesti-
lence pervade the land and it is difficult to
see how any human agency can ever miti-
gate these conditions when the elements
are so conducive to them. The days OF
torrid heat are followed by agtumnal
nights. possibly accompanied by a de!uginz
rain. which would suggest a hails.orm
These conditions are aggravated by local
causes and it is pretty safe TO say that no
mortal power can free Santiago from sick
ness during the summer. OF course the
thorough renovation and cleansing of the
city. which is being pushed so Vigorously
by General Wood. will do much to lessen
the evil. Santiago is healthy during the
dry season and just now there is very little
sickness of any kind.
The deepening Of the harbor it Is
thought. will add much to the city's
health. This will be necessary to aeccmo-
date the increasing commerce When the
work is accomplished larger body OF pure
salt water will be admitted and the prg sent
two-foot tide will be thing Of the past.

Mexican Sign Language.


Mexico is land of many tongues, but
above the Indian dialects and Spanish
there is one universal language-the Ian
guage of signs. 1t is the most expressive
of all; the Mexican eye and hand are co
quent members. 1t is capable Of infinite
variation; its shadings and suggestions are
beyond all translation. But there are GER
tain gestures that have fixed meaning, a
Specification well understood by every ma
ton and every tribe from Guatemala TO
Texas.
A general upward movement of the body,
shoulders shrugged, eyebrows raised, lips
pouted and palms outspread, varies in
meaning from Il don't know and l don't
care" to a most respectful Really, sir.

The index finger moved rapidly from

THE SOLIDARITY oF NATIONS.
Inventions of the Century Make the
World One state.

(From the St. Louis Globe Dcmoerat)
The interest which is taken throughout
the world in the question of the choice OF
a President of the French Republic which
is to be made today. shows the intimate
connection which each nation holds to
every other at the present time. In every
country the death of President Faure was
the leading topic of discussion yesterday.
In all OF them the question of the effect
which this would have on the relations CT
France to the other nations was consid-
cred. This was not only true of frances
ally in the dual alliance. Russia, and
Frances old enemies, Germany and Eng
land. but also of the United States, which
in the ordinary view, is not liable to be
affected in any direct way by the change in
Frances executive head.
Telegraph, steamboat and locomotive
have shortened the distances to such an
extent between nations that, in the larger
view. the entire world is now merely a
single great state. century ago the life
OF no potentate except Bonaparte was OF
much consequence outside OF his own coun-
try. A century and 4 quarter ago the
death of George III. would have excited
very lively interest in his American col
onies. but in no other part of the world
except the British Empire itself would
that event have attracted much attention
in that occurrence would have been pure
ly historical. The social and economic
ties between the nations were far less in
Innate then than they are today. The
knowledge which each country had of tbs
others was far less close than it is at
the present time. The number of news
papers in each country was much smaller
in proportion to the population than it is
now. and the space which those papers
gave to the affair of the other countries,
or even to those of their own. was incom-
parably less than it is in this age. The
boundaries between nations. which were
real barrier to the close contact of any
one of them with the others at the be-
ginning of the present century, are mere
ly ideal lines now. like the parallels and
meridians on the maps. \ new and larg-
er fellowship between the people of the
different nations has sprung up in the past
fifty or seventy-five years, and this will
fix the worlds attention on the transac-
lions which are to take place in France

Columbia Athletic Club.

The bowling team of the Columbia Ath-
letic Club is again. through the courtesy
of the Y. NJ. C. A, bowling the games
scheduled for it upon its old alleys, and
the players familiarity with the famous
rollways is helping them to keep up their
position in the League ranks. They are
now in third place by a fair margin and
are likely to finish there unless there is a
great slump. Stitt is again in shape and
doing good, steady work at anchor" Won
Boeckman and Pitkin. too, are doing we'll,
both playing consistently.
The next set scheduled for the C. A. C.
is with Carroll Institute on March S, and
these games will be played on the Y. NJ.
c. A. alleys. BY the way, the League
will more than likely be strengthened by
the Y. NJ. C.. A. team next season. The
Association has large number of bowlers
from which to select a strong team, and
the desire to enter League competition will
no doubt be gratified.
The last home" game scheduled for the
C. A. c. is for March %, with the Saen-
gerbund. The team, in company with the
Saengers, made a splendid showing in Bal
timore on the 22d inst, against the Gem
tlemen's Driving Park team, the two teams
winning eight out of the eleven games

A Flag o, preeiou. stone.

A New York ieweier has combined
patriotism with very fine advertise
ment by making a copy of the Stars
and Stripes, which is probably the
mcst expensive flag in tie whole world.
It is quite small. only I inches by 1
inches, but is worth at least 1850.
1t is entirely composed Of preeicus
stones. 1t has thirteen stripes aad
forty-two stars. The white stripes are
of small diamonds, 500 Of which go to
make them up. The red stripes are
rubies, the same in number and size
as the diamonds. For the blue field
there are about eco sap7hires. with
forty-two large diamonds for stars.
This uHique flag is displayed in the
jewelers. window on Broadway, and
attracts a coEstan. crowd,
