TOO FASCINATING GOLF.
A London Authority Says the Game
Is Apt to Lead Players Into
Over-InduIgemce.

If "the healthy mind in the healthy
body" is truism much employed by
our profession, so is the equally OBJ
vious proverb, Enough is as good as
feast" Too much time is spent over
golf and men bring to bear on the
game an industry and devotion to de-
tail which ought to be expended upon
more serious things, says the London
Lancet. This kind of enthusiasm for
form of recreation cannot be re-
garded as merely struggle to main
tain the standard of physical health
on which mental health depends. 1t
must rather be looked upon as immod-
crate attention to a fascinating sport
and must be guarded against like any
other form of excess.
1t is an admirable thing in golf
which we admit to be an excellent
game, even while we desire to say a
warning word against its cult-that it
cannot be played carelessly and that
assiduous practice is required after
the position in the handicap list that
is somewhat contemptuously de-
scribed as domestic twelve" has been
reached, if a higher standard is to be
attained. 1t is exactly here that golf
proves, to our thinking, a pitfall to
many men--some Of them of. our pro-
feSsion.
Whatever is worth doing is worth
doing we'll is an axiom that every med
ical man and every thinking man must
cordially indorse. AS no one can play
golf really well without the sacrifice
of much time the working man Is
sOon brought to a parting of three
ways Shall he leave off playing the
game in which he can only excel by
much expenditure of time? or shall
he continue to play moderately game
in which he feels he could, and he
would, play much better? or shall he
give more thought than is right to
what, at best, is but laborious idle
neas3
We hope that all our readers will
take the middle course Let them reap
the undoubted good that Isl offered to
them by break in their round of toll
and by brisk exercise on open hill and
heath, and let those of them who are
not brilliant exponents of golf recog-
nize chserfully that excellence can
only ceme by the neglect of more i'm
portanf things

In the grocery division of a big de-
partment store a young woman was
making an exhibit of new prepara-
ton of wheat. On the counter in
front of her were little plates. These
she filed from time to time with
freshly cooked samples, Which she
passed out free to customers who
wished to try them.
One man, lean, dyspeptic looking
person, had emptied his dish with
evident relish, and the young wom-

him with her most engaging smile

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

Now Trenton will be putting on
more airs because it is million dollar
city. The taxpayers, however, will
not enthuse very jubilantly over the
fact, because it means an extra pull
on their purse strings. With the New
Jersey Legislature, the Interstate
Fair and three theatres to open the
coming fall, Trenton is certainly get
ting into the swim among the cities
of the State if not of the country. =
Camden Courier.
When the Legislature convenes next
winter it should create the Office of
"chaser" and appoint to it man
capable of following every measure
introduced in either the Senate or the
House from the time of it's introduc-
tion to the point of it's disposition.
There were altogether too many sins
of omission committed by the legis-
lators this year and the year before. =
Trenton State Gazette.
There is movement on foot in
Elizabeth to compel the saloonkeepers
to raise their curtains on Sunday SO
as to give a cleariview of the interiors
of the saloons. what's the use? The
plan was tried in Trenton, but it did
not work. According to report, some
of the dealers merely moved the sup
plies into a back room. Trenton

une.

'Well, | was sent to report a funeral
day before yesterday, which was at

how many distinguished citizens were

the occasion as solemn as possible. The
funeral began promptly, which struck
me as worthy of special mention, so [

ing this fact After it was finished I
inwardly congratulated myself with
having written an excellent article, and
the next morning turned over the
paper to see first of all how that fu-
neral looked in cold, black type.
"The introduction read like Carlyle,
and then l felt my heart in my throat.
This is the way the second paragraph
began:

and lovely women, with eyes dim with
grief, stood about the coffin, and the
fun began promptly"
"What!" shouted the roommate.

the answer, "but the compositor did
not see the ring around it,"
"You ought both of you to be dis
charged for tampering with such a
word," said the prospective physi-
clan.

man, as he called to mind what the
editor said when he suspended him for
a week. 'Yes, what you say is good
advice, but see that you follow it
yourself, my boy. When you become
doctor, don't abbreviate funeral"

MUSCLE AND VITALITY.
Athlete Points out How Development
Of One May Result In De-
strOying the Other.


It is the custom during the early
summer afternoons and evenings for
men interested in boating to wander
along Harlem Heights and watch the
crews getting in trim for their annual
contests. Among this number lately
was man who was once the best all
around athlete in the east and who has
now attained eminence in the medical
profession of New York. His opinion
of the men in the various boats, as ex-
pressed to a reporter for the New
York Times, was that the appeared too
eager to sacrifice vigor for muscle.
'The popular notion is" he said
'that the bigger and more conspicuous
an oarsman's biceps are the more
vigor he has. AS matter of fact the
relation between the size of mans
muscles and his vitality is not nearly
so close as is generally supposed
Some of the strongest athletes have
known have gone under at critical mo-
ments because of insufficient vitality.
They had built up tremendous and
powerful muscles on the exterior of
their bodies at the sacrifice of the
power within the body that we call
vitality.
at is comparatively easy thing for
any ambitious athlete to develop large
muscles and do it with such success
that he will almost ruin his staying
powers. Certain exercises carried on
moderately that tend to build up mus
cular tissue will also build up vitality,
but it is an indirect and not direct
relation. If you will notice some of
have sunken eyes, drawn cheeks, and
show very clearly the effects of the
vital strain under which they are prac-
ticing. If mistake not, many of them
will be compelled either to take a
good rest or drop out before the final
contests.
"The same thing is true" he con-
tinued, ''of men in business life. When
a man comes to me for nervous treat
ment I usually find that he has been
working too long. But it is more diff
cult for me to get him to shorten his
hours than it is to induce him to take
| medicines. The hardest and most dis
agreeable prescription to some men is
rest The men of greatest force in
the world are the men of greatest
vitality. A man who takes care of HIM
self and does not overwork or over
stimulate will resist disease where
another man, under precisely similar
circumstances, will succumb to it.
eve all know busy men who are not
sick, but who have comparatively little
| physical power. They lack vigor and
they cannot stand the strain of hard
work. Professional baseball players
and men who play golf are not neces-
sarily men of muscle; but they are
men of good vitality. There, have
been preaching a little sermon from
Harlem Heights; but if some men will
take a hint from it and develop the
vitality that will surely avail them in
time of unusual strain, mental or ply
sical, shall not have talked in vain"

Boston, Nov. 2S.-Bedbugs, although they kept a family from sleep and ruined furniture, could not save Wil- liam C. Stafford any part of his rent for apartments in the Hotel Iverness. Beacon street, in the fashionable Back Bay district. Judge Forsaith gave judgment for the amount in dis pute, SIP, and refused to consider a counter claim of s2,00O made by Saf- ford for loss of rest and damage to his chattels. None Of the insects was introduced as witness, but friends of Stafford testified that bedbugs were numerous in the hotel. A professional exterminator admitted the Iverness was on his list. and Saf- ford told a pathetic story of the sui fering Of his family and the cost ot renovating his furniture, but to no avail. He was told to pay the sum due On his lease, but will appeal.

Bisbee daily review., 1903-11-29

The Mining Journal of HUushlOn, Michigan. in a recent issue. contained an interview with Graham Pope. pres ident of the Houghton Deyel )piacn. company. in which Bisbee is severely criticized. The interview was re- produced in the Review. and the cause of Bisbee is taken up by q sub scriber. and MT. Pope's remarks re- sented with an implied threat that the Review is liable 10 lose a valua- ble and old subscriber. While Il re- aizes that words can hurt no aody. the Review dislikes the prospecr ot losing MT. Cowan's familiar name on its books. so it is hoped these gen tlemen will continue to fire ar each other at long range. As for MT. Pope's remarks, We fully believe with Mir. Cowan, there may be a number of gentlemen in Michigan. who from Sei'- tember to June. dislike to thrust their bodies through a hole in Michigan ice to acquire the bathing habit. And also that it is not the custom for miners in this district. (well 10 do as they are to go down to their vo~k Tn full dress suits and a fresh shave cv- cry evening) Still they get along pretty well here in this greatest min ing camp in the country and We bc. lieve Mir. Pope simply had on his Jok- ing uniform. feeling so good over what he saw while here. Now Will MT. Cowan please not discontinue hls Review and we are satisfied IS VIC know he will be. Here is MT. Cowsn's letter:
 Bisbee, Ariz.. 11-22--02. Editor of Review. Bisbee. Ariz.-
 Dear Sir-I simply wish to call your attention to that article written by one Graham Pope. Of Aougllton, Mich igan,.
 Now it is evident that Pope is one of them cheap screws who would like people to recognize him as mining man of some importance, but he goes at it the wrong way
 He speaks of the town Of Bisbee being filthy and some Of the buildings being built in the streets sc. Also of giving a man who had a few claims to sell dollar to 20 and take bath. The chances are hat he did not have the wherewith 10 buy the mans claims, any way l think he is the last man on earth who would give a prospecto- a dollar to go take a bath
 
 or get a meal. The fact is 1 own fourteen claims not very far to the northwest from | the holdings of the Houghton Devel- | opment company. they are trying to l develop a mine out there by means of | two little grass root tunnels such as any old pros;y;ector could do if he were foolish enough.

ENTERS HOSPITAL TO DIE.
Man Refused Admission Three Times
Ends His DAYS There.

new city hospital scandal has de-
veloped in Minneapolis. George Ster-
rem died at that institution this morn
ing, as alleged, from a blood eliot on
the brain, causing paralysis of the
lower limbs. Sterren made several APP
plications for admission to the hospi-
tai, and on each attempt to secure ad.
mission to the institution he was turn
ed away by the physicians, who assert
ed that he was drunk. He was three
times hauled to the hospital in a pa
troll wagon, and each time sent away
again because of the insistence of the
hospital doctors that nothing allied him
except drink.
few days ago his case was report
ed to the humane society, which or
ganizatiOn sent a doctor to examine
him. The doctor reported that the
man was seriously i'll and in need of
medical attention. On this Showing
the city hospital authorities agreed to
receive the patient
After Sterren had been admitted to
the hospital, the physicians still in
sisted that he was shamming and I'M
der the influence of drink. But after
a consultation it was decided to keep
him there several days SO that his case
could be studied. It was realized too
late that Sterren was suffering from
paralysis and that it would be difficult
to save his life. He died yesterday
morning, after becoming totally para
lyzed. tn
Sterren is the man whose name was
supposed to be Spain. Attention was
attracted two weeks ago to his efforts
to gain admission to the hospital, and
much comment was excited in the
newspapers ct that time on account OF
the determined attitude of the hospital
authorities.
