FRIENDLY RIVALS IN SPORTS.

At cricket and at polo, and perhaps in some
other fields of sport British cousins may
excel us. But the American champion of lawn
tennis has defeated the masterful expert from
England R. F. Doherty, who has been crowned
with so many wreaths of wild olive on both
sides of the water. SO Yankee Doodle sticks
another feather in his cap.
Nevertheless, he is not unduly exalted or
swelling visibly with pomp and pride. He

be done at the wickets he may be little better

Channel. He was in the water for more than
twenty-five hours, and was within a mile of
Dover (having started from the French COAST
when he became SO exhausted that it was inn
possible for him to struggle longer against the
tidal currents.
He is surely plucky fellow and is not readily
discouraged. But even if he tries again. and
succeeds he will only do what Captain Webb
did many years ago, and will gain no world

he will sail over the silver streak in an airship

THE MISUSE OF FIREARMS.

There has been so much promiscuous shooting
in Kentucky in recent years that even the con-
