Our Sportsmen Abroad.

# The one fact Of greatest interest IN
the meet between the picked men of
Harvard and Yale and the athletes Of
the English universities at the Queens
club, London, is that the Englishmen
won a score Of five events to four al
most wholly on their staying power.
In the running contests, particularly in
the mile and great three mile matches,
this was plainly demonstrated. The
weakness of the Americans in this re-
spect may, in part at least, be ascribed
to not being acclimated. The lesson to
our college boys is that they cannot
cross the Atlantic and in short time
expect to overcome the climatic condi-
tions in favor Of native athletes in con-
tests at distances requiring both speed
and endurance The speed at both a
quarter and half mile is so high
that it makes short call on the heart,
and the greater distances prolong the
call so that only thoroughly acclimated
organs can respond. The next interna-
tional meeting between college athletes
should be held in this country, where
the climatic conditions will favor the
losers in the last struggle Turn about
is fair play.

The recent lease of the Boston and
Albany railroad to the New York Gen.
tral and Hudson River Railroad COM
pany is for term Of thousand years.
or rather, to be explicit, 900 years.
When the term expires, there will be
very few of us living, very few indeed,
but the road in some form or another
will doubtless be operated, and there
will no doubt be alive lessees and lessons
to pay and receive the rentals. Quite
in line with this idea of keeping an &C.
count with the remote future is the
suggestion Of bonding municipalities
for 100, $50 or 200 years at small rate
Of interest for vast municipal improve
ments-parks. water supply, public
buildings, boulevards and the like. It
is argued that the present generation
would be privileged to enjoy these i'm
provements, while the future genera
tions, which would have them already
provided for their enjoyment, could
well afford to pay for them, as the fu-
ture will be richer than the present, as
the present is richer than the past.

Commissioner General Peck has a
very perplexing problem on his hands
in the allotment of space at the Paris
exposition to American applicants.
Though the United States was treated
quite generously by the F'renchmen in
the matter of space, it is now found to
be wholly insufficient to accommodate
those of our countrymen who desire to
make exhibits at the fair. Applications
for space aggregating many times the
area allotted to this country have been
fled with Mr.. Peck. Undoubtedly
American exhibitors will be greatly
cramped and hampered in making what
they consider adequate exhibits. and
there is need of the exercise of a large
measure of patience and forbearance on
the part Of those who are not getting
what they expected.

In view Of the rapid growth of West
Indian and South American commerce
and the considerable emigration to
Cuba and neighboring islands which
our present relations with them will
bring about, the important questions to
be considered are those Of acclimation
and immunity from tropical diseases to
which people Of cooler climes are espe-
cially subjected. The ''white man s
burden" is not so much one of arms as
Of sanitation. Joseph Chamberlain was
right when he said the other day that
''the man who shall successfully crap
pie with this foe to humanity and make
the tropics livable for the white man
will do more for the white man and
more for the British empire than the
man who adds a new empire to the
wide domain Of the queen. What Mr..
Chamberlain says of Great Britain is
true of our present and prospective re-
lations with the tropics.
