PROFESSOR FAVORS
SUNDAY BASEBALL
Chicagoan Says 1t Is Harmless
Amusement.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2e.-Prof. Henderson,
OF the University of Chicago, a noted
authority on prison reform, in lecture
before the students advocated the play
ing of baseball on Sunday. as well as
golf. tennis, and kindred sports of an
outdoor nature.
Prof. Henderson held that outdoor
sport was much preferable for a normal
human being to lying around the house
in a state of torpor induced by an over
loaded stomach from big dinner.
Prof. Henderson is a Baptist clergy
man. and his remarks created a great

less the man referred to. but he must
go through the process OF evolution be-
fore he can hope TO command attention
enough to make him a worthy opponent
for Jefries. This plan is now being
worked out by other hands.
McVey is TO fight Denver" Ed Martin
within month at Los Angeles, and ar
rangements have already been concluded
for Jack Johnson to meet the winner.
Johnson has decision to his credit over
McVey, and has beaten Martin, but he

Jeffries would like TO fight again this

Manager McCary, OF the Century Club
at Los Angeles, is trying to induce Jack
Munroe to take another chance. Since
Munroe has been issuing challenges

He has also injured Jeffries' peace OF
mind by claims that do not set right in
the champions system. On last Friday
evening one more def was read from
Munroe. and Jeffries' patience became
exhausted. without wishing to appear
anxious on the surface, JEFF is wild to
get another rap at Munroe. and has In
structed McCary to make the match IL
possible. The champion has never
fought in his home town, and the match
would, therefore, be immensely pleasing
to the Southerners.

>An,,,aI suDeratitiona.

There are many animals that the su-
perstiious consider it unlucky to Kill.
Among them may be mentioned lady
bird, q martin, a robin, a stork and a
money spider, while to kill a wren
means that you will break bone be-
fore the year is out. Many animals are
also supposed to herald death, and su-
perstitions in this direction are so nu-
merous that only few can be men,
toned here. The most commonly
known is the clicking or tapping Of
the beetle called a death watch, which
is reckoned as an omen Of death to
some one in the house.
The bowling Of dog at night near a
house is supposed to predict the death
of q sick inmate, as also the setting of
a white pigeon on house BODIES death
to some one in the house, while, again,
an old saying among the superstitious
runs, mo person can die on bed or
pillow containing the feathers Of a
white pigeon"
That the gnawing Of furniture by
rats presages death is also n common
superstition. To meet certain animals
is considered lucky, while to meet 9th
ers is the reverse. For instance, to
meet a sow with litter of pigs is very
lucky, but it is unlucky if a SOW
crosses a travellers path. To meet a
weasel is lucky, but should hare run
across the road in front of you it
augurs bad fortune.
