And now comes the discouraging news
that Delehanty is out of the game with
an injured leg! Ducky Holmes filled in
yesterday, and covered his position quite
acceptably. Game legs have become an
epidemic in Senatorial ranks of late, and
already three of our players are out of
the game, suffering from similar af-
fiction.
Unfortunately two of these indigents
are the highest salaried men on the
team. DeMontrevilIe draws $500 a
year. while Delehanty's salary is $4,000
per annum, which, together with the ST.

The Value of n vacation.

A vacation pays as much from the
standpoint of character as from any
other point of view. Just as every
man is n rascal when he is sick" so the
best intentoned man in the world may
be a brute when he is worn out phys
ically and working and planning o'
trying to do so with a tagged weary
brain. The brutal qualities in mans
nature come to the surface when he
has drained his vitality to the dregs
He loses his self control and his pas
sions get the better of him. He does
things which in his soul he condemns
and says things for which he after
ward hates himself and all because he
lacks physical stamina. The long strain
of the year has made him 50 irritable
and exacting that the merest trifle up
sets him lie goes all to pieces over
little things which he would not even
notice if he We're in good bodily condi
