ABOUT AMERICAN POLO.
ing spirit i'm Introducing
the Game Here.

James Gordon Bennett, the proprie-
tor of the New York Herald was the
leading spirit i9introducing polo into
this country. 1t was he who dined, in
1876, at his own residence, which still
stands on the northeast corner Of
Fifth avenue and Thirty-eighth street,
New York city, the following gentle
men: Messrs. William Jay, William
b. Douglass, Charles G. Francklyn,
Winnie Thorn, Perry Belmont, John
Mott, Samuel Rowland and Lord
Vaudeville.
1t was decided to bring from Texas
a carload of COW porfies, and, until
within a short time, there was hung
in the Meadow Brook clubhouse, Long
Island, list of these ponies, distrib-
uted by lot among the diners, at an
average cost of $40 each.
The first game was played during
that winter in the old frame Dickel
Riding academy, where now stands
the Union League club, corner of Fifth
avenue and Thirty-ninth street, says
y. Willard Roby, in Outing, and play
was later continued at Jerome park
race course, at Fordham, in 1877.

SAVAGE COLONY IN INDIA.
A Tribe in Madras That Eats Game
Killed by Hunters without
Cooking 1t.

In the Nellore district of the
Madras presidency live the Yanadis,
a strange tribe, as may be seen from
n report which has been issued by
the authorities of the Madras Gov
eminent museum. The live in for
ssts, and that they are little removed
from savagery is Indicated by the
absence of implemefftal or monu-
mental material, the animistic ma
ture of their religion, the primitive
hunting and fishing methods followed
by many of the tribe, and the habit
of eating the almost raw flesh of the
game they kill after slightly heating
or scorching it. They are fearless in
catching cobras, which they draw out
of their holes without fear of their
fangs, and it is supposed that they
protect themselves against the eff
fects of snake bites by swallowing
the poison sacs of the snakes. Es-
pecially singular is the manner in
which they produce fire by friction.
For this purpose they prepare two
sticks, one short, the other long. In
the former a square cavity is made,
and it is held firmly in the ground
while the long stick is twirled rap
idly to and fro in the hole. Instead
of charcoal powder they use rags, or
even dried leaves, which they find
! little difficulty in lighting.

HENPECKED HUSBANDS.
morous Anecdotes aud Descrip-
ttous un the subject.

"Chnese humorous literature
abounds with reference to henpecked
husbands said Prof. Herbert Allen
Giles. of the University of Cambridge,
in the closing lecture of his recent
course at Columbia university. Then
he went on to tell Il sample story culled
from this branch of Chinese litera-
ture, says the New York Tribune.
"Ten henpecked husbands resolved
to form a society to resist the imposi-
tions of their wives" he said. "The ten
wives heard of the plan, and while the
meeting for organization was in prog
ress entered in body. Nine of the
rebellious usbands incontinently bolt
ed, but the tenth one retained his plaee,
quite unmoved by the frightful APP
parition. The ten ladies, merely smil-
ing contemptuously on the one man
left behind, returned to their homes,
satisfied with the success of their raid.
The nine husbands thereupon returned
and resolved to make the heroic tenth
the president of the society. When
they went, however, to inform him of
the honor, it was found that he had
died of fright.
women have a few privileges that
men have not" continued Prof. Giles.
"They are exempt from the bamboo
punishment; no woman can be bam-
booed. And a woman is a source of enx-
iety and misgiving to magistrate and
counsel in any case in which she may
be n party, for no Chinaman will enter
into an agreement with a woman-not
from any feeling.of chivalry at all, but
from rooted conviction that he VIII
get the worst of it,"
Prof. Giles continued to reveal mas
culine secrets by describing some
things which he said recently took
place at dinner at which n number
of high-class natives and important for
eigners were present. The host, ad-
dressing himself to the latter, in
quired:
"Do you fear the inner ones?"
Upon inquiry he explained that he
meant their wives, and added, with
unconscious pathos, that many China
men stood in constant fear of their
wives.
"Now, for example, he does" said
the host, naively, pointing to solemn
and rotund magistrate, who had i'm
pressed everyone as filed with sense
of his importance.
Atthis all the Europeans present burst
into uncomfortable laughter, which
rather surprised the Chinaman, who
had been seeking to acquire informa'
tion on what they thought were seri
| Gus matters.

aroused IN Washington by the publl-
cation of statement of General
Woods administration Of affairs in
Cuba in which 1t is shown that when
the General turned the affairs of the
island over to the present admlnistra-
tion there was in the Cuban treasury
a balance Of $I,S3o,ooo while reports
from Havana indicated at the time
that the treasury balance 10 which
President Palma fell heir was ap.
proximately $4,000. What became
of the difference is the embarrassing
question which is being asked. Did
it disappear as did that famous hand
some furniture which was "looted "
from the palace. at Havana' There is
every evidence about the report of
the Insular bureau of desire to make
the best possible showing for the ad-
ministration of General Wood but
when it comes to the actual figures
there appears to be discrepancy
which is unaccountable. While the
report goes into great detail in regard
to reforms, which it is alleged General
Wood inaugurated in Cuba, it fails to
touch upon any of the details which
were asked for by Congress. No
statement of the expenses of the
palace is TO be found in its pages.
Neither is there any statement of the
amount spent by the General for the
''education of public sentiment in the
United States" OF course it is in
conceivable that these figures will be
absolutely suppressed in the face Of a
demand for them by Congress, but
they will, In all probability, be with
held from public scrutiny until after
the elections and will then be un-
earthed at a time when public atten.
tion will be occupied with watching
the national legislature.

cured during the administration oi
President Roosevelt than the dis
charge of Miss Taylor, an employee
of the War Department, which took

SMALL PAY FOR HARD WORK,
Women in fhe Government Treasury
Department who Are Poorly
RecOmpenscd.

In the great printing office at
Washington where the government
paper currency is prepared for cir
culation there are some very skillful
women who receive only small pay.
This is notably true of those who
inspect and count the sheets of bills
as they come from the presses, says
the Chicago Chronicle. Every sheet
contains four bills, each of which
must be perfect. If there is ever so
small spot or flaw in the printing
the bill is rejected. These women
have to be experts who have served
in all the capacities from printers
assistant up, until they can detect in
an instant flaw which would not
be seen by the unframed eye. They
inspect and count 10000 sheets of
bills day, and their compensation
is $500 year; they have to pass
rigid examinations before they can
get into the service at all.
Persons who suffer from the heat
in summer should be comforted
whenever they lick postage stamp,
material upon that stamp are in a
much warmer place. During the av-
erage warm day in Washington the
thermometer stands at 40 degrees in
the big room where the govern
ments stamps are coated with glue
The sheets of stamps are run
through long boxes filed with very
hot air in order to dry them thor
oughly, and these heated boxes raise
the temperature of the room in spite
of open windows and many electric

CULTIvATING A CARRIAGE.
We Are Advised to Carry n weight
on Our Heads IT We Would
Stand Erect,

A STOPPING figure is not only fa-
miliar expression of weakness or old
age, but it is, when caused by careless
habits, a direct cause of contracted
chest and defective breathing. I'm
less you rid yourself of this crook
while at school you will probably go
bent to your grave. There is one good
way TO cure 1t. Shoulder braces will
not help. One needs not an artificial
substitute, but some means to develop
the muscles whose duty it is to hold
the. head and shoulders erect. / know
of only one bull's-eye shot, says
writer in Halls journal Of Health.
1t is to carry weight on the head.
A sheepsltin or other strong bag filed
with 20 or 30 pounds of sand is good
weight. When engaged in your morn
ing studies, either before or after
breakfast, put the bag of sand on your
head hold your head erect, draw your
chin close to your neck and walk
slowly about the room, coming back
if you please every minute or two
to your book or carrying the book
as you walk.
The muscles whose duty It is to hold
the head and shoulders erect are hit,
not with scattering shot but with a
rife ball. The bones Of the spine and
the intervertebral substance will soon
accommodate themselves to the new
attitude. One year of daily practice
with the bag, half an hour morning
and evening, will give you noble car
with your studies
