DIDN'T HAVE THEM.
Therefore the Local Ball Team
Will Not Miss Them.

A San Francisco paper that ought to
be better posted on baseball matters,
says the Sacramento baseball team has
suffered great loss in Meeney, Hughes
and Lochhead, and that Beckwith will
probably go in the box instead of
Hughes
Now it happens that Meeney never
was a member of the Gilt Edge team
and Hughes has been out Of it for more
than a year
The Sacramentos won last years PEN
nant without the aid of either one of
these players, so it does not appear why
their going East again this year should
cripple the team. AS for Lochhead, his
place can be filled, though he was a
valuable man.
The Gilts have however suffered a
loss this season in the person of Har-
vey, who pitched alternately with Doyle.
Either is the equal of Hughes, and if
Manager Kripp can get good run
ming mate for Doyle the other clubs Of
the league will find the Sacramentos the
same difficult proposition to handle
that they were up against last year.

Losses and Gains on the Turf.

It is estimated that as much as between
5000 900 900 and $3.50, 900, 600 is lost yearly on
the turf Australia is the largest loser.
No less than $100 900 900 changes hands
there yearly. If the money could be es-
timated which miserable people spend in
a vain endeavor to get health, it might
prove as appalling as the above amounts.
Hostetters Stomach Bitters has cured
hundreds of people who had spent small
fortunes trying to regain health. The
Bitters strengthens weak stomachs, and
thus cures as well as prevents constipa-
ton, indigestion, biliousness, liver and
kidney ailments, which indicate an over
worked or abused stomach. 1t is the only
medicine to take in the spring, and is
recommended by all honest physicians.

CONSCIOUSNESS.
Or. LlndIey Continues His Talk of Thurs
daV.

DIR. Lindley reviewed his talk of
Thursday and spoke on Consciousness
and, notion" saying in part: Reaction
is the goal of all activities. Johannis
Mueller said in 1874 that we could never
measure the time Of nerve impulse; but
within the same decade Helmholtz
found the time te be about 12O feet a
second In the human being. The sim
plest form of reaction is the time re-
quired for the sensation to go from the
sense organ to the brain and thence to
the muscle.
To illustrate this, the class Joined
hands and stimulus was given at one
end Of the line and passed on to each
person in order. The time taken to go
through the line Of II people was 6 sec
onds FIRST trial and seconds the last
trisl. Dividing the time by the num-
Der of people in the line will give the
approximate time for each individual.
II is found that reaction time Is faster
in ear reaction than eye reaction Mus
eular reaction is faster than sensorial.
because muscular reaction anticipates
the stimulus.
Reaction time differs in individuals.
and the effect Of disease may easily be
determined by its means. with the
chroncscope one may measure the re
action time very accurately.

RECENT EDUCATION.
Germany and France First Adopted Idea
of Capitalization.

of Capitalization.
Mr.. Sheldon spoke on Recent educa-
tion,'' and said in part: The medieval
universities were part of the church to
the extent that the professors were
immune from most of the laws. But
there was no great centralizing ten
dency to any great extent.
We must look to comparative recent
years to see Capitalization in education.
In Germany, France and England this
was shown first, and as in government
in France and Germany, it developed
out of the necessity of defense.
But even when the central go'ern-
ment took charge of the schools, local
organization was left to the locality.
The Capitalization advanced, however,
and took more and more of the power
away from the locality, leaving but lit
tie except the expenses on single
community.
The wiser leaders of Germany are
beginning to question if the centraliz-
alton and tendency to militarisnism
has not been worked for more than
they are worth.
In France education was under the
dominion of the church before the rev.
olution. And when Napoleon came to
the throne, he found almost all the
educational institutions wiped out. On
the clean slate he began to establish
schools, neither the primary schools
nor much of higher education, making
each school school of speciality. tend
ing to narrow men into one industry.
He placed all his stress on secondary
education, with the object to train
ND mil 10 ion iey11.
He decreed most centralized form of
school, making a sort of machine out
of the entire system.
AT the fall of Napoleon the militar-
ianism was withdrawn from the school,
but the same machinery was kept to
some extent There is now a tendency
in the direction of the free universities
of Germany and America.
At the opening of this century Eng
land was almost at the bottom of the
educational ladder The universities
did some good; it couldn't do other
wise; the secondary schools were of
very little value, and the only primary
schools were church schools and even
worse than the secondary.
English school system began with
the examination idea, by which the re-
suits Of the school was supposed to be
tested 1t prevents a certain amount
of superficiality, but it's results are de-
moralizing. The recent tendency in
England is against this system now.
The first public school system in
America began in New England. The
southern and middle states had nothing
much but church and private schools
After the revolutionary war the
other colonies began to follow the ex-
ample of New England. The struggle
in the middle states was long, and in
the southern states most of the schools
failed. In 1850, however, the develop
ment became more rapid, but there
was no centralizing at first. The result
has been that the localities in the
United States developed their own sys-
TENS. Soon after the establishment Of
the state school, the city school arose.
Some of the centralizing tendencies
in the states are the adoption of com.
puisory education, state examinations
of teachers, and some others not very
widespread, and seldom the same in
two states.
