One day as the Sage was sitting at
the mouth Of his cave and whiting
away at pine shingles, he was ap-
preached by Youth, who said:
ooh, wise man, but would add to
my store of knowledge, and l have
come to converse with thee
''Tis WE'LL" replied the Sage. "You
see my COW in the field yonder. Go
thou and lean up against her hind
legs.
The Youth climbed the f,rca and
performed the leaning act and when
he had picked himself up and limped
back he ruefullY exclaimed:
calais o man of wisdom, l have
been grievously hurt
"W hat haprened?'
''The COW kicked me into the mid
die of next week.
sThen thou hast learned wisdom
and may CO."
"But, O Sage, have travelled many
miles to seek this interview"
Il don't doubt it, and therein lies
the rub of the whole thing. When a
Teller can be kicked by horse at
home he is an ass to travel twenty
miles to be kicked by some one e'se's
COW, and you have found it out"

ment. If the club directors won't do this.
then steps will be taken to stop the
games"
While Mr.. Emmons is perhaps biting
on little more than he can swallow
when he talks about stopping profess
sional ball games, he is certainly right
in his contention that betting should
be stopped.
All the real scandal that has ever at
tached TO the national game has been
the result OF gambling on the game. The
practice of betting is not. or has not
until recently. been as prevalent in the
East as IN the West.
The biggest betting today is proba-
bly, done in Pittsburg. There was a
time when the bookmakers in ST Louis
used to do as rushing business on the
ball games as they did on the ponies.
Both the National and American
leagues have rules against betting, but
la many instances the club owners have
shut one eye on the evil so long as it
was not done too openly
Just at the present time the good old
game is at the zenith OF success.
The old sentiment. and there is more
real sentiment in baseball than any
other game on earth. has been aroused
once more, and the game is proving :
financial harvest for its promoters.
The practice of gambling. If it ISM
stopped Immediately, will kill this sen
timent quicker than anything else. Pc
lice Interference. however, isn't the
way to stop it.
If the various club owners will 5ut
enforce the rules they can keep the
gamblers away from their grounds.

WATER RENT SCHEDULE
SUBJECT OF DlSSENSl0h

The Commissioners are Ia receipt of
an exhaustive letter from George W.
King. in which he takes Colonel Biddle
to task In the matter Of the schedule
for water rents.
Some time ago Mr.. King took issue
with the methods adopted by the En-
gineer Department in apportioning
water rents. In answer Colonel Biddle
stated that the schedule was very plain
and admitted of only one construction.
Mr.. King replies with few pertinent
statements and questions which he re-
quests the Commissioners to answer
The first point brought out in the letter
Is that the schedule says Offices are TO
be charged according 10 figures. Not
withdrawing this. Mr.. King states that
Colonel Biddle informed him that it was
custom of the engineer ONCE 20
charge a uniform rate Of 50 for Offices,
whether any fixtures are installed OF
not. This. Mr.. King contends. is not au-
thorized by the schedule.

Birch Broom. a hardy little daughter
OF Ben Brush. was brought on from St
Louis few days ago to xin the Bright

strengthening qualities of pipe-cIay IN

Doc, ever mindful OF his illys hoofs
as important factors in the result OF a
race. refused to walk Birch Broom over
car tracks and through sand and dir.
SO he hired a horse ambulance and had
her carried through the city to the track
