.iting in Outing Mr Price Collier gives the following as his estimate of the value of sport to the nation:
 The nation which governs almost one fourth of the earths population, and upon the whole governs well, spends over $20o, 900 900 annually upon sport and has Invested in the same way even great CT sum. Perhaps there is no higher test of a mans all around abilities than his power to govern wisely; at any rate 1t is nection. that the governing races today are races of sportsmen. The people who play games are inheriting the earth per haps because it makes them meek. As a matter Of fact. we think it does just that. among other things.
 The French do not play games, and MT. Benjamine Kidd has shown how the pop ulation of France is steadily decreasing, the deaths having outnumbered the births there for several years past The Span iards do not play games, and travellers agree that their too mast salient charac- tedistics are over-weening personal pride and cruelty. The Chinese despise unnec- sary physical exercise and can scarcely be driven to fight, even for their country, and their lack of decision and their pulpy condition of dependence are now all too manifest.

In Wearing Veils.

From the New York Tribune.
 How many women are consistently ruining the bloom of their lips and the contour of cheeks and all pleasant ex- pression' by pinning their veils too tight- ly across the face" said a woman yes- terday. "Observe the women on the streets and you will see any number of them at frequent intervales 'pouting' out their lips so as to push off the pressure of the tightly drawn veil, and all uncon- scious that the peculiar action has grown into a fixed habit, or that 1t makes perfect caricature of their faces every time they do 1t, to say nothing of the irri- tating effect it has on the sensitive nerves of other people. Apropos of the habits why will people get into them? They are so difficult to overcome, once they are formed. And it is resented as an offense if any interested friend calls attention to some habit that is spelling and ruin- ing a womans appearance"

AL WAYS LOWED THE SOUTH

New York, Merch 3.-Charles Broadway Rouss died here today
 Mir. Rouss had suffered from heart ais. ease and dropsy. He was born at Woods boro, Md, in 1S36 He first engaged in business in Winchester, Va, served in the Confederate army and then came to New York in 1865. He had been in business here continuously from that time. He erected, at his own expense, a monument to dead Confederate soldiers In St. Hope cemetery, this city founded a physical laboratory at the University of Virginia at cost of $6O,OO0 and gave $1OOO0O for Confederate museum to be located at Richmond. Va. Some years ago MT. Rouse became blind. He offered $1,00O, 900 to anyone who could restore his sight, but the reward was never successfully claim ed
 A number of years ago he opened a store on Broadway and 1t Is said of him he woud give work to nearly any young man who really wanted work Of late years he conducted one of the largest apartment stores in New York City. MT, Rouss' wealth rapidly accumulated, and his estate is believed to be worth many millions.

 Friend of the South.
 MT. Rouss was a staunch Southerner. He loved Winchester, where he lived for long time, and made many large dona- tions to that city. He took the liveliest interest in the Confederate cause and frequently made large gifts to various veteran organizations. He started the movement to establish great Battle Ab- bey in the South, and offered to give $100,000 to this movement if the Southern people would raise a similar amount. This movement succeeded and after hard fight between Nashville, Atlanta, Mont gomery, New Orleans and Richmond for the location, the committee appointed by the United Confederate Veterans decided in favor of the latter place on the ground that that city was the seat of the Con- federate government.
 Proud of Southern People.
 MT. Rouss was very proud of the South ern people in New York. He gave ire quent dinings to the Southern contingent there, who gathered every Sunday after noon at his palatial Fifth avenue resi- dence to partake of his hospitality.
 He leaves several children.
