SChOVL Glttks AThLEEESs
 The Schoolboy Athletic League move nent is spreading with commendable ra- pidity Tn many States. but Newark is first to raise the banner of chivalry and plan a meet which will give the girls chance 10 show on track and field that they. loo. have fieetness, agility and endurance. Ten grammar schools have been organ ized in league whose first contests VIII De held in June. The Newark prin- cipals obs ,rved that the girls were in- clined to be peevish over their ungallant exclusion from the program of sports, and inasmuch as young women of Well lesley, Vassar, etc., arc able to make a brave showing in organized athletics. 1t was decided to prepare a program for ths exhibition of feminine prowess. So each grammar school Is to send two teams to the meet, and the girls are to have their own set of officials, championships ana trophies. The principals are still pug sling over the program of events for the feminine aspirants, and show. a dispos,- ton to dodge the stern responsibility and call in the women vice principals and teachers to handle the problem in an ad- equate manner
 Throwing a baseball for distance will be one of the features. if the men have their way. for the alleged reason that fun has been poked at the throwing ability Of womankind from the days of Rameses, and 1t is high time they learned better. The girls on the other hand, are not unanimous in approval of this event, fcaring that their efforts win be derided by a lot of top-lofty and unfeeling boys. A seventy-five yard sprint will be in- cluded. and also a 100 yard run, with a spec on and an egg in 1t. Practice at cocking school is expected to furnish some measure of proficiency in handling eggs without scrambling them in the scramble for the finish. Without taking any frivolous view of the project, the innovation is a wholesome and promising one Girls of the grammar school age are as active and energetic as their broth- CTS. and can often outrun them. System atic encouragement of exercise in the open air Is better than the cut and dried work of the gymnasium, and 1t is going to make the girls study, for scholarship is going to play a part in the selection of the teams-Illustrated Sporting News

MARINE LOSES His LIFE
FIRST SERGEANT BILLOU DROWN
 ED IN PENSACOLA BAY.
Boat CapsiEing, But His Companions Hang on Until Rescued by Mem bers of the Life Saving
 Crew.

Pensacola, Fla, May 16.-(Special.)-- First Sergeant of the Marine Corps Bii- lou of the Pensacola navy yard, was drowned from the capsizing of boat in Pensacola Bay late Saturday night. Gun ners Sergeant Kohoe, with Privates Houseman, Dillon and Moore, who were in the same boat, were thrown into the water and only by clinging with death- like grip to the gunwale of the over turned boat were they able to save them selves until the crew from the Santa Rosa Life Saving Station, under the command of Captain Robert Broadbent, saw and re- | aized their plight
 No second orders were needed to man | a surf boat and in short order the four men were hauled safely to land and given dry clothing. When the men were re- | vlved, one of them informed Captain Rroadbent that there was an unsaved
 man. the first sergeant A crew was de-
 tailed to search for this man. For over an hour the men pulled over the vicinity
 where the saiIboat had capsized, but no
 trace of the man could be found. His | body has not yet been recovered. The l five men started out from the Marine
 Barracks at the navy yard Saturday
 night intending to spend the coming day on Santa Rosa Island, where surf bath
 ing is unexcelled. When Iie boat was at
 a point opposite the Life Saving Station
 side wind caught the sail, filled it up
 suddenly and threw the boat over on It's
 side. Sergeant Billou was thrown far
 from the overturned boat and he was un-
 able to reach 1t again.
 1 The other men had the presence of
 mind to take hold of the gunwale at once
 and their existence today Is attributable | alone to the good work of the life saw | ins crew. who have before been the
 means of placing many a man out of l danger.
 | As soon as dry clothing was given the | frightened naval men, they were taken
 back to the navy yard and an official re-
 port made of the matter. Search was in-
 stituted for the body of Billou, but this
 so far has been unsuccessful. It is the
 opinion that the then receding tides car
 rted the cadaver into the Gulf of Mexico.

ADJUSTMENTS.


1t is claiming a good deal to say
that there has been a new idea in
volved in stage life, but that claim
is certainly substantiated in the
play "a Devils Lane" The cheer
full picture of real life, the sweet
ness Of pure affection and the love
OF the domestic hearth, all brighten
ed by the sense OF the comic rather
than the tragic. It would be fitting
for the opera house manager to put
these words above the door, "Aban-
don care, all we who enter here, /"
when this bright, joyful comedy
comes to town. "A DEVILS Lane"
tells the story of a family quarrel Of
generations standing, and how the
worthy and otherwise genial feud-
lists endeavor to live up to their an
cestral partisanships, and how a
funny Terrible Kid" unconsciously
leads them all merry chase through
tangled ways and out into the sun
shiny open of glad understanding.
A pretty love story runs natural.
ly through the excitement which
eliminates in happy climax.
This delightful comedy, once seen,
never forgotten, will appear at the
Bedding Opera House on Monday
night, Sept. II.

Yours sincerely, HARRIET TAYLOR UPTON.

The Status of woman marks the Degree of a Nations Civilization" Dear Madam:-A bill is now pend ing in Congress which so vltally at- fleets the interests of women in the great Southwest that We believe that you and your organization would like to protest aga.nst the injustice there n threatened, our sisters.
 The bill proposes to unie Oklahoma and Indian Territories into one State under the nane of Oklahoma, and to combine New Mexico and Arizona Territories into a State under the name of Arizona This measure has passed the Lower House of Congress, has been read twice In the Senate and is. now in the Senate Committee on Territories, of which Senator AL bert J. Beveridge is Chairman, and the following named Senators are al so members: William P. Dillingham;, Knu.e Nelson, Thomas R. Bard. Hen Y E. Burnham, John Kean, William B. Bate, Thomas M. Paterson. James ,P. Clarke and Francis G. Newlands. Now is the time to amend, while the bill is in Committee.
 The portion of the bill threatening 10 the women in the proposed new States is found in paragraphs 5 Of sections 3 and 21, which would al low these States, when organized, to disfranchfse minors, criminals, luna tfcs, 'nchsresidents, ignoramuses and wornen ~ This part of the bill reads as follows:
 .Fifth-That said State shall never enact any Jaw restricting or abr.dgirg the right of suffrage on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude, or n-,account of any other conditions or qualifications save and except on account of illiteracy. mi nority, sex, conviction of felony, men, tai conGstion,s CT residence; provided, however, that any such restrictions shall be made uniform and applicable alike 70 all citizens" .
 There msy be o:her objections. to tits part of the bill, that Congress gratuitousiy interferes to forbid negro disfranctisement, or disfranchisement flor any other conditions or qualif- cations" which later will prevent dis;
