Play in the intercollegiate Lawn Tennis
Associations twentieth annual tournament
started yesterday morning on the courts of
the Merton Cricket Club at Haverford. Pa,
under somewhat disappointing conditions
An entry list in every way representative
of the associations true strength had been
confidently anticipated, but when the time
of starting arrived 1t was found that only
six of the members of the organization had
representatives present.
Disappointments. however, did not cease
with the Indifferent number of entries-the
absence of two of the most important play
ers In the intercollegiate world was the
cause OF more sincere regrets. Beals
Wright of Harvard. whose chances for the
championship were Of the brightest, could
not arrange matters to the satisfaction Of
the crimson faculty. and Wylie c. Grant.

had entered, was not permitted to COM
pete by the Columbia faculty.
In the absence of these two men the sin

each one can estimate for himself what
the cost would be, In his own case, OF

In 1896, Al lambs were sold. Each
averaged "A days in age, weighed 40
pounds, and dressed 20 pounds.
They sold at $3.50 each, or $l56.45 In
all.
In 1897, 4S lambs were sold, averag-
ing 76 days In age; live weight, 55
pounds; dressed weight, 26.5. They
sold for 1897 each, or $192.35 in ALL
In 1898, 40 lambs were sold, averag-
Ing 106 days in age, 60 pounds live

total Of $140.

total yearly income Of Sl97.93, or 1896
per eve. The ewes were sold at the
end of the experiment for little more
than they cost, 30 there YVES no loss in
that respect.
Here are some items that can be es-
timated in the expense Of these ewes
as follows: The ewes were kept in
the corrals and fed hay after about the
first Of November. AS soon as the

was sold, When on hay alone, tho
ewes ate about Ave pounds Of hay per
head per day and decreased 30 about
four pounds when pound OF grain
was added, The lambs ate a pound OF
hay and pound OF grain after they
were 80 days old until they were sold.
This makes So pounds OF grain for
each eve and rs pounds Of grain for
each lamb, or 40 pounds OF grain for
the eve and lamb, costing US on an
average Ga cents, Each eve ate 7lB

NOT ENOUGH PROSPERITY.

Ex-Gov. Boutwell,, of Massachu-
setts, In letter to the Boston Globe,
says some sensible things about the
lessenlng Of working hours which has
taken place within the past two or
three generations. 1t Is usually as
sumed that workers are better off
now than formerly, that Is, that they
do not work so hard, because they
work fewer hours. But Gov. Bout
well takes 4 different view. Arguing
Tor the greater need Of vacations now
than formerly, he says:
Today the hours Of labor for the
average mechanic may be much less
than formerly, but the kind Of labor
that he performs is greatly more ex-
acting and wearing than the work of
mechanic was so years ago. A man
laborlng In a shop or factory or on
the farm today must keep his mind
constantly ON his work and must do
everything with greater care and Skill.
II he works only eight hours a day the
work Is steady and uninterrupted, and
II demands an expenditure OF consider
able intellectual effort. When was a
boy, a farm hand, for example, went
about his tasks leisurely, stopped to
talk and to rest frequently during the
day, and insisted on an occasional draft
OF rum. His hours Of labor may have
been from sunup to sundown, but his
actual time OF labor was much less
than that of a farm hand today. Fifty
years ago 1t was the same in every
other kind Of occupation. A mechanic
went about his work without any serse
OF hurry. Nobody seemed to hurry In
those days. The business man had
fewer cares and lighter responsible

PUT YOURSELF IN THEIR PLACE

Imagine that in our revolutionary
times France at war with England had
brought us an army and feet and had,
without any definite compact, co-ope-
A.ted with us as an ally and led uS to
believe that she did this without any
mercenary motive, and that, in case
Of victory, our American colopSes
would be free and independent.
Imagine, then, that after the FGlt-
ish surrender at Yorktown, the kink Of
France had extorted from the British
king treaty which ceded for S20, ,0t0,-
600 the sovereignty over the American
colonies to France and that the king
Of France then coolly notified General
Washington and the continental con-
gress to give UP their idea of independ-
ence and to surrender unconditionally
to France, and to be 'benevolently as
similated.'
Imagine, further. that upon the
