 Although poor people do contrive oc- casionally to spoil their children by in- diligence, by making great sacrifices this business is not carried on whole sale. as it is among the rich Poverty is a severe.yet kind stepmother. In n large family. not very well to do, the older children care for the youneer sones and exert more influence often in their own way than their parents in teaching self denial and common sense.
 Self control is the one thing spoiled children never learn They must have everything they want and have it without delay. The child who kicks his nurse, bullies his mother and his younger brothers and sisters develops into the passionate, dissipated young man..
 The spoiled girl becomes an exact ing. disagreeable woman. The world must wait upon her. she makes every body around her unhappy and all be- cause she was q spoiled child. Her husband is a martyr to her whims and caprices. and her children are made wretched by her irritable and fretful disposition. and all because her early training was not what it should have been.-Boucuet.

Star Riders and Track Owners Talk of FOrminp Nav RacinD A ASSOciatiOu

Forming New Racing Association.
 Boston, March 29-A break in cycle dom that will be more far reaching ill its effects even than was the move ment that resulted ill N. c. A. organ ization, is threatened. Alreadyva num- Der of racing men who are training here, as well as many track owners, have announced readiness to jump the N. c. A. and go into a new racing as SociatiOn.
 Speaking of the project yesterday q well known pacemaker said.:
 II do not see any reason why a new association would not be a success from the very start, and it would sur prise many to know the number of tracks within a fifty-mile radius of Boston that could be induced to join There isn't a rider who is not more or less dissatisfied.
 ''Take my case, for instance. A cer- tain we'll known manager owes me q piece of money. I have appealed to the N. c. A. in vain. It is only recently that they have done anything in regard to the matter. They now inform me that they have suspended this party from all track privileges as a manager or trainer, and yet 1 see by the papers that he is not only signing contracts for his man, but is around the track even, on motor.
 'Why, even in the old L. A. w. days it was better than 1t Is at pres ent. They got your money, but you got protection in return''
 Another well known pacemaker said :: "A great many of the boys are kicking because they are compelled to pay S2 a year for the privilege of earning a livelihood. This seems to be unreason- able, and the majority of the Nlers seriously object to it, for they are of the opinion that if the N. c. A. made or, to be nice, received-$9. .OOO last year in revenues, it is too much money for small and select coterie to be spending travelling about this country and in Europe.
 eff we got any insurance or possible protection from this $2 fee we would not kick, but the fact is we are liable to be suspended for life if We open our mouths to object. In Europe the riders have an association as we have here but if track owner or any one else owes q poor pacemaker money he has got to pay or the riders will not mount a wheel in a race.'
 Tine pacenllkerS are not the only l ones that have kicks coming. Track owners who have, thousands of dollars invested are, told by few in control ' l day or that one because Mr So and. So. 1 who owns such q track. is going, to i hold meets in those days or evenings. 1 ''ft would be far bctter.' said q track owner yesterday,"if the N. c. A would do away with the giving :, of , sanctions to certain people and permit track owners to get: together and con fer and settle amongst themselves what day they will hold meet. and on which one they will visit the others | track aud see the races. 1. F.-An example of how business is done in Boston. where the Charles River park has the exclusive right te hold meets on April 19, May 30. June IT. July and Labor day, the only lioIi days ill the year~tllat are any good fol cycle racing. Mailman cannot hold q meet on any of those days. and why; It is simply because the owner of the
 track was refused a sanction.'

 The absence of all papers or docu- menfS Of value at the Gilman resi- uence leads the administrator to be- Iieye that they are either kept at some Ne" Aork deposit company, or were taken away from the mansion after Mir Gilman's death by those who would be benefited by their possession. As soon as the inventory is completed the house will be closed up and the five servants discharged. The hostlers will be kept in charge of the stable until such time as it is decided to sell the horses by auction or private sale.

BASE BILL BRIEFS.
Law Suits Have Begun For the Services of some of the Players


 Both Leagues-Hartford Is Yet to Be Harl from in the Eastern League. President Benjamin F. Shibe, of the Philadelphia American league club, said last evening that the suit brought by Mir Rogers will be met promptly and fearlessly. Yesterday MT Shibe retained Attorneys Richard c. Dale and William Jay Turner to look after the interests of his club in the suit, and he says every point raised by the National league in their bill will be dis puted The American league, he said, desires a decision from the bench on the questions in dispute, and he eN- pressed himself as confident that the National league contract will not be sustained by the court. Manager Con- nie Mack-Cornelius Magillicuddy, as named in the suit-expressed senti- ments similar to those of President Shibe. He said his club had antici- patel MT Rogers's present move. and for some time had been prepared to meet it. AS to the outcome of the suit he said he felt certain that when the championship season opens Lajoie and the other players named as defendants will be found playing on his Ameri can league team.

FOR AMATEURS ONLY.

Albany. March 29-Assemblyman M. E. Lewis. who was the author of the bill that knocked out the Horton box ing law last year. has been won over to approve of the Brooks amateur box ing act. He came to this conclusion upon the amendment of the measure in the assembly codes committee to- day. The committee inserted in the text a specific provision that no pro- fessional should under any circum- stances be permitted to engage in any exhibition conducted by amateur ath- letic associations 1t was claimed that the way iIl which the bill was worled in tho original text 1t permitted the contestants to be professionals so loEg as they did not compete for purse or hire. Now Mir Lewis is satisfied that four amateur Marquis Of Queens bury rounds may be fought in fifteen minutes and no great harm be done. The bill, it is now thought, will be passed. It was recommitteu for re- printing.

London, March 29.-Delay has been caused in the building of the Shamrock II. through the failure of some Of the aluminium deck plates to stand the strain of the severe testing to which they were subjected. A dredge has been working for weeks between the channel of the Clyde and the slip lead ing from the shed where the Shamrock is building. but it has been found i'm possible to clear q passage to deep wa ter. Resource has therefore been had to an ingenious adaptation of the pom toon system for launching the yacht. A huge watertight box is being built around the under water body of the boat. inclosing the fin and reaching to the ordinary water line. It is cal clated to float the yacht about six feet higher than her water line. She will thus be able to pass through the shal
 low water into the channel. where the pOntoon will be knocked away. The crew of the yacht will number thirty seven men, but several amateurs will be aboard of her during the races.

There are not few people in vari-
Gus sections of the country, not direct
ly interested in the work of irrigation,
who recognize that every reclaimed
acre of land means a stimulus to bust
ness, and an eventual benefit to the
country-means more crops, increased
population, advanced civilization, new
needs, and consequently greater vol
ume of business. What Congress has
to guard against is schemes to benefit
mere private enterprises at public ex-
pense. A project so guarded will be
beneficient, and the people of every
section of the country can consistently
approve it.-Sprinqfeid III. Register.
