Cricket in the South Sea Islands.

The natives Of the South Sea
Islands have recently developed a
passion for cricket In FIJI,
Samoa and Tonga it has become
the custom f1r one tribe to chal-
lenge another, and as every men,
Der of the tribe insists on
playing, the matches are some
times sixty side, and run into
weeks, the defeated tribe having
to pay a forfeit of ten pigs. In
Tonga, the enthusiasm for cricket
led to the neglect of business, and
the Legislature at once passed a
law prohibiting cricket for more
than two days in the week. The
King of Tonga is an excellent
batsman. These Pacific Islanders
play cricket without pads, gloves
or any protection whatever In
the remote districts, where cricket
materials are difficult to obtain, a
tree serves as a wicket, cocoanut
as a ball, and a war club as a bat.

Sinbad has q regular old fashioned
garden. In il are sweet peas
climbing up an improvised trellis,
holly hocks and sunhowers stand
ing like sentries on guard, beauti-
full poppies Of every imaginable
shade that nod their heads in the
wind like butterflies, zinnias, pc
tunias, scabiosas, heliotropes and
q dozen other varieties, not to
mention couple of rows of to-
matoes and a sheaf or two Of corn.
In this old garden one might be a
thousand miles from prison or any
suggestion of il.
Amid all this profusion of sum-
mer blossoms, the cold days of
next winter are not forgotten. Last
week Sinbad set out S78 plants in
the rose house which will CON-
mence to bloom in October or
November. Among the different
varieties are Duchess of Albany,
Belle of Siebert, Liberty, La
France and others.

Hbsura Costumes.

A wager was made in 1906 in
the castle yard, York, England,
between Thomas Hodgson and
Samuel Whitehead as to which
should succeed in assuming the
most singular character. Empires
were selected whose duty it was to
decide upon the comparative alb
surdity of the costumes in which
the two men were to appear. On
the appointed day Hodgson came
before the umpires decorated with
bank notes of various values, his
coat and vest being entirely covered
with them. Besides these he had
q row of five guinea pieces down
his back, Melted purse Of gold
around his head and placard on
his back bearing the legend, John
Bull.
-
Whitehead came on the scene
dressed like woman on one side,
one half of his face painted and a
silk stocking and slipper on one
foot and leg. The other half OF
his face was blackened so as to
resemble negro. On the CORE
spending side Of his body he wore
a gandy, long tailed linen coat. his
leg on that side being incased in
half a pair of leather breaches and
. boot with spur. He wore q
wig of sky blue braided down his
back and tied with yellow, red and
orange colored ribbons.
One would naturally fancy that
he presented the most singular
and ludicrons appearance, but the
umpires must have thought differ

a witness against this officer also, and
that the investigators are only await
ing certain evidence of corroborative
nature, which time is pretty sure to
bring forth, to take the case before the
grand jury, 1t is improbable that the
murderer will ever be brought to the
electric chair, but that he and his ac-
completes will join Eddie Glennon in
Sing Sing. and that there will be a
great number of important vacancies
in the list of the West Forty-seventh
street police station before all is over,
seems increasingly probable.
A ludricrous feature of the case is
the action of a certain rival of the
World in the field of yellow Journal
ism. AS soon as this paper saw that
its competitor had the support and APP
prevail of the public in a case that is
one of the greatest public import, its
directors got together and said:
Here, we must do something to off,
set this or we'll be out of the lime
light completely"
So they resurrected the Florence
Burns case, which is over and done
with and out of the popular mind,
and which never involved any serious
municipal or political issues. as does
the McAuliffe murder and attempted,
by offers of reward for the real slayer
of Walter Brooks, to get the center of
the stage. The result is that the pa
per appears as an obvious and inept
imitator of the World and that every
body is laughing at it.
AS an example of the inefficiencies
of a fusion administration, Mayor Low
is at present a shining beacon. Every
body seems to be working at cross
purposes. There is no concert of ac-
ton and those who aren't criticizing
and contradicting others are laying low
and keeping still ''for want of some
thing better to say" of course the
principal difficulty is the same old ex-
else question. No plan of procedure
has been formulated and inevitable
confusion is the result. Here is Dis
trict Attorney Jerome telling every
body that unless the present law is en-
forced to the point of making the city
demand a new law which can be en-
forced without injustice or hardship.
the Low administration is doomed.
