THE consumption of meat has
fallen off to a great extent every

cities. In Philadelphia and New
York many of the retail dealers have
been compelled to go out Of business.
a number of them whose sales here
tofore would run from $50 to $780,
per day have been of late selling

many of the well to do people have
curtailed their supply number OF

HARVARD COACH FOR W. 81.
Means Change in the Style Of Play
Next Fall

WASHINGTON. Pa, April 81. - Man
ager w. x. Craig, OF the Washington
& Jefferson foot ball team, this after
noon announced that the team next
fall will be coached by Harvard
man. He is Elbridge Fl. Greene, the
big two hundred pound centre OF last
years lineup, that sent the strong
Yale team down to defeat to the tune
% to 0. The choice of a Harvard
man is significant, in that it means
that the style OF play (Princeton)
which has been 10 vogue at w. Il j.
for many years will be changed, and
instead OF open style play, the mass
system, as practiced at Harvard, will
be used.

VX yHEN grow weary with the
w conventions of religion and
'1 sick in my soul from feed
ing upon husks that the churches toe
often offer me in the shape of elaborate
service and eloquent discourses, so that
in my sickness doubt and doubt, then
90 back to the communion in Block
Rock and the days preceding it, and
the fever and weariness leave me, and
! grow humble and strong. The simp-
licity and rugged grandeur of the faith,
the humble gratitude Of the rough men

radiance Of one sanity face and recall
me.
Not lis most enthusiastic apologist
would call Back Rock a religious COM
munity, but it possessed in n marked
degree that eminent Christian virtue of
tolerance. All crced,, oil shades Of re-
lgioUs opinion, were allowed, and it
was generally conceded that one was
rs good IL another. 1t is fair To say,
however, tina: Black Rocks catholicity
was negative rather than positive. The
only religion Objectionable was that in
sisted upon as necessity. 1t never
occurred to any one to consider reli-
gion other than a a respectable if not
ornamental addition to life in older
lands.
During the weeks following the max
ing of the league, however, this neg
tive attitude toward things religious
gave place to one Of keen investigation
and criticism. The indifference passed
away and with it in large measure
the tolerance. Mr.. Craig was respon-
sible for the former of these changes,
but hardly in fairness could he be held
responsible for the latter. Ii any one
more than another was to be blamed
for the rise of intolerance in the vii
lage, that man was GeOrdie CrawfCtd.
He had his "lines' from the f,stab-
lished Kirk of Scotland, and when Mr.
Craig announced his intention of hav-
ing the sacrament Of the Lords supper
observed Geordie produced his lines
and handed them in. As no other man
in the village was equipped with like
spiritual orct entails, Geordie constitut-
ed himself k nd of kirk session charg-
ed with the double duty of guard

and of keeping an eye upon the theo-

As was to have been expected, the
charge made by Rev. j. l.. Withrow,
of Boston, that society women swear
like troopers, has resounded like .

leaders. "There are some women,
of course, not in the best circles,
who think it fad to swear, though
in reality 1t is only species of out
rageous vulgarity." This, as you will
observe, is n hard one for Rev. With
row. According to the Philadelphia
view, he thought he knew about So
ciety women, but in fact he only
knew about women who, "of course"
did not belong to the best circles.

Cecil Rhodes has by HIS win pus
rather puzzling question to posterify.
rs. TIN. co,,.. He insists that
those who are to
enjoy the scholar
ships he has established shall be good
all-round men, and shall not be judged
by prominence in studies only. This,
1t may be said, is not according to the
ordinary collegiate standard, when
proficiency in studies is practically the
only merit considered in grading stu
dents. Mr.. Rhodes, on the contrary,
insists upon more than this, so that
the pure "diggers" have little chance
of capturing any of his lavish gifts.
Mr.. Rhodes specifies indeed that can
didate for one of his scholarships must
he judged by the following: QD His
fondness for or success in manly out
door sports, such as cricket, football,
and the like. (2) His qualities of man
hood, such as truth, courage, devotion
to duty, sympathy for and protection
of the weak, kindliness and fellowship.
(3) His exhibition during school days
of mortal force of character and in
stincts to lead and take interest in his
schoolmates, for the latter attributes
will likely in after life guide him to
esteem the performance of public du-
ties as his highest aim. As matter
Of fact, it would probably be found
that the men thus equipped were the
really successful men after leaving
college, and if the dead Colossus does
nothing else he will serve to broaden
the narrow collegiate standard which
has heretofore held almost universal
sway. Mental, moral, and physical eX-
cellencc go toward making the most
perfect men, and he judged rightly
that If he attempted to reach the men
who would be foremost in after-col-
lege life, he must get away from the
congregation Of ploddcrs whose final
distinction in life is apt to come at
graduation time.

The crusade in many American
cities against eXpectoration in public
places is being watched with much
interest by the London health au-
thorities. \ medical Journal has
called the attention of the municipal
authorities to sense of their re-
sponsibiIities in regard to this source
of danger in public health. In Lis
bon, Portugal, Il peculiar feature of
an ordinance regarding splitting in
public conveyances is that the fine is
to be imposed on the conductor, who
is held responsible unless he can
prove that he has informed the po-
lice of the infraction of the rule. The
local authorities in Italy are also
proceeding against the evil. In Flor
ence notices have been placed on the
walls prohibiting splitting in mu-
seums and galleries.

The latest plea for the irrigation Of
the arid lands of the interior states
and territories is that the consequent
wetting of the dry surfaces would pre-
vent the desert siroccos that now blow
eastward, scorching the vegetation in
more favorably situated states. From
this it would appear that the arid at
mosphere as well as arid land is to be
irrigated.

Literary Notes.

Unusual short stories unusually well
told, all complete in each number. are
' the lines on which The Black Cat was
founded. and its phenomenal success is
due to its progress along these lines. In
these days OF perpetual IN )tion, when
people want TO make changes about so
often. il is really remarkable that the
publishers OF this magazine haven't de.
parted hairs breadth from their course.
They haven't added pictures, they
haven't added poetry, they haven't
added miscellaneous matter And the
five stories in the July number, three
OF which are prize winners are proof OF
the fact that The Black Cats stories
continue TO be unusual and unusually
well told
To such of our friends as wish TO make
proposal Of marriage and do not kaow
exactly in what words TO frame it, the

fered for the best proposal, and several
other prizes for such as may be of ex.
cellence, but fall below the very first
grade. To people that could find words
with which to propose several times, il

might be if one were repeatedly rejected)
there is very good chance to make
