Sunday BaIl-PIayinE,

A boy who works for his living has been
writing to a New York paper to ask
if there is any vacant lot or field in the
city where boys are allowed to play ball on
Sundays. He says that in the neighborhood
where he lives there are many open fields.
but the police arrest all boys caught throw
ing or batting a ball on Sunday. in any OF
these places. The paper answers the
letter with a protest against a state Of
things in which poolrooms are allowed to
remain open on Sunday. while vacant lots
are tabooed to ballplayers
The criticism is entirely Just. In New
York. as in most other cities, there are
thousands Of young men and boys whose
only time for recreation is Sunday All
the rest of the week they are obliged to
work indoors. often at conining and un-
wholesome occupations Even IL they go
to church Sunday morning they still have
the afternoon for purposes Of healthfuI ex-
ercise- Under the present system II ap-
pears that the New York boy must pay
twenty-five or thirty cents car fare before
he can find place where he is allowed to
play ball. The great metropolis is peeuI-
iarly clrcumscribed by its natural posi-
ton. and in other cities it is probable that
there are ball grounds in the suburbs
which are accessible. But why, in the
name Of common sense, should IA, vacant
lots be used for gymnastic purposes? Why
not set the police to keep order in the
crowd hut frankly sanction the playing Of
The evening times., 1900-04-26


innocent and heaithful games in these
lots. at any and every time?
The oId-fashioned boy in the Sunday
school book was content to take a lorg
walk on Sunday afternoon and enjoy the
beauties of nature. IT, indeed, he did not
put in his time at mission scaool. But
the real boy needs all the vigorous exsr-
else he can possibly get. especially IL his
work is indoors six days out OF the seven
Long walks are good. but they are rot as
beneficial as lively exercise OF all the mus
cles of the body. The gymnasium is a fine
thing. but it will never take the place of
open-air activity. II the boy of the future
is to grow up strong. sane, and healthy,
he must have a fully developed body. The
city boy, if he is born of well-to-do par
ents, may get his QUITO door life during
his summer holidays, when he will be sent
TO the mountains or seashore, or to his
grandfather's farm. The boy who has no
relatives in the country, and must leave
school at the age of twelve or fourteen
and begin to work, cannot spend three
months of every year outside of the city,
nor can he take a part of every day for
athletic training. 1t is much better that
he should play ball or any other out-of-door
game on Sundays than that he should
grow up entirely without such exercise
There is great danger that in the rapid
development OF the modern city. and the
complication and specialization of our in
dustrial system. the city population may
come to be specialized as we'll as its ma
ehinery, and a race Of lean. understood,
preeoeious, near sighted and more or less
vicious youngsters be produced through
over-develOpment OF the wits and lack
of proper physical advantages In short,
given homes unventilated, dark and cheer
less. monotonous work and conditions
which call for continual alertness, there
might easily be evolved sort of human
rat, with most of the vices and few of the
healthy virtues OF normal humanity. In
some large cities a type very like this has
been produced. We DO not want it here In
America. The city may. with care and in
telligent enterprise, be made as healthful a
place Of residence as the village 1t ought
to be. But without proper attention to the
physical well as the mental and moral
needs of the community. this cannot be
done and when Sabbatarians declaim
against Sunday excursions. pienies, and
other amusements. they overlook the fact
that an abnormal physique generally
makes man either a saint or rascal and
that the chances are much in favor OF the
latter development

AT GEORGES CREEK.
The striking Miners Favor a Set
f1ement.

FROSTBURG, Nd. April 26.-After a
general canvass of the sentiments of the
miners of the Georges Greek region on
the strike situation, a number Of leading
miners held a meeting in Frostburg and
arranged for full meeting Of delegates
from all the mines in the region. This con-
vention will provide for 2 call Of the en-
ployes of the various mines in the region
to hold meetings at their mines for the
purpose of electing representatives to Feet
the operators The miners have come TO
this conclusion owing to the refusal OF the
operators to recognize the union in lie
present contention.
The miners will not ask unreasonable
terms in discussing a settlement of the
present differences. They feel that the
operators will not decline to meet them on
a fair proposition to terminate the suspen-
sion- 1t is not only fourteen days since
the strike began. and this determination on
the part of the miners to bring about a
settlement in so short a time is unknown
in the history of strikes in this region. The
miners are nos going TO take hold OF tre
matter outside of the union. and union and
non-Union men alike will confer ON the
arrangements to meet the operators -rhe
miners are very much composed and snow

OF course one must wait for a conclusion
of the negotiations before deciding upon
what this country has gained by its splen-

As far as appearances go just now the
situation is not ali that we could wish it.
Abdul Hamid is mad, the missionary So
eieties are mad, the money is not forth
coming or likely to be. and 1t is not i'm
possible that our Mohammedan empire
may be melted to rebellion. The Admin
istration has been obliged to recall its
bluff of armed force, and to explain for
Russia's benefit that it never thought of
going to war. If it ever contemplated
sending Sampson to Smyrna no one here

Imagination could consider that intention
as hostile in the remotvst sense

The Senate Committee On Revolutionary
Claims to which was referred the bill for
the relief OF the heirs of Benjamin Wilson,
deceased, and the petition OF Rachael VIII
son. his daughter, have made the follow
ing report:
The bill Is the same one reported IA
vorably in the Thirty-fourth Thirty fifth,
and Thirty-sixth Congresses. and is a bill
to pay the heirs in general Of Col Benja-

services as an officer Of Virginia Militia,

col Benjamin Wilson was evidently
man OF great prominence and value or the
frontier. He was a member of the con-
yentiOn OF Virginia which ratified the Con-
stitCticn OF the United States in I78S. and
several times member of the General
Assembly of Virginia About the begin
ming OF the Revolutionary war he removed
from the Valley OF Virginia west Of the
Allegheny Mountains TO a point near the
present city Of Elkins nox in Randolph
county W Va. where he constructed a
fort for the protection of settlers against
Indian incursions. and from that time on
on what was then the extreme western
frontier, he served his State. and when
called upon by the Federal Government he
served his country In the most dangerous
and trying and useful way
The amount Row recommended is the
same as then recommended. for the same
period OF service in 1871 and 1892. and has
been calculated by direction Of the Pay

HANNA's VOTE AGAINST QUAY
The Ohio senator Says IL Was on
Constitutional Grounds

COLUMBUS, Ohio. April 26.-In an in
terview with Senator Hanna he was asked
why he voted against Quay. Purely en-
constitutional grounds" replied Senator
Hanna THE action of the Senate was
based purely upon a constitutional ques-
tion. 1t was not a political question and
had no political aspect attached to it. On
personal grounds l have nothing against
Mr.. Quay. and We have always been friend
ly.''
j Those who saw Senator Hanna's exuIta-
tion yesterday when the news of Quay's
defeat was announced never saw a man
so happy over victory on purely con-
stitutional grounds
Hanna was asked whether or not the
action Of the Senate in the Quay case re-
fleets the disposition of the Senate on the
Clark case.
There is a difference. Quay had not
been seated, and the question was on seat
ing him. Clark has been seated and the
question is as to unseating him. But I
would rather not be quoted with reference
to the Clark case"
