the church. The knights were sup
posed to be gentle. bold and brave,
but often the reverse was true.
Chivairy began to decline in the
fifteenth century. The same causes
which led 10 the downfall of Feud-
tiism led also to the downfall OF
Chivalry.-namely-the advance Of
civilization. and the changes in the
mode of warfare; such as the inven-
ton OF guupowder, which rendered
the common footsoldiers ds strong
as the mail.clad Knight. Chivalry
has left some good results to civili-
cation, such AS respect for woman
hood, and the courtesy, kindness,
and generosity for which the nations
of today are noted.

The medieval history class in the
high school has just finished the
study OF feudalism and chivalry.
These topics are very useful and in
teresting to study.
Feudalism was a special form of
government and society based upon
u peculiar tenure Of land. A noble
who mad IA large tract of land par
celed 1t out to others, on condition
that they be loyal to him and serve
him in warfare. They in turn could
parcel it out to Others on the same
terms, etc In theory this WAS a
splendidly organized body; but in
reality it amounted to very little.
Feudalism was at its height during
the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth
centuries.
Chivalry was an outgrwth of feu-
dalism. 1t was composed of an or
der of knights, pledged to defend the
oppressed who needed their help, and

THE DIAMOND.
GREAT IS
 SPRINGFIELD
Shut Out the Champion H0lyokes in Their Last Game at Home-Seven- teen Inning Game in Bridgeport.

Springfield, Sept. S-Holyoke still sticks on the baseball map, but the bold, black letters are slightly blurred. Yesterday in the last game of the sea- son on Hampden park, under Connec- ticut league auspices, Springfield came before the public in all the har- diness of early season strength. Score Ponies 3. Champions c.
 Hours before Dan O'Neil knew that a loving cup was to be presented to him by Mayor Dickinson and that Cy Miller was to be sturdily upheld in his show of pitching finery the Spring field manager said: I'd rather win this game than the pennant' Spring field players gave Dan O'Neil, the public and themselves a day which will always force itself to the surface in recollections of truly great base ball farewells. As the last game of a snappy series there was public in terest in the proceedings. In winning Springfield evened up, according to official records, in the inter-city argu- ment, each team having won eight games. The Holyoke owners, having refused to either play off the game ordered to be disposed of in such manner, by the league directors, or enter into a post-season series, now appear before the baseball populace as champions who are painfully dis erect in guarding honors already cor nered.
 Steamer Flanagan who was making his last appearance as a Pony, sailed into one of the most gorgeous fare
 wells any young player ever did. A home run hit by Steamer over right field fence in the fourth scored the l first Pony run. For this husky effort
 Dan O'Neil handed Flanagan S6 which he had within easy reach, and the | Springefild portion of the crowd which
 seemed to be in power at the time. | cheered Steamer all the way around | the bases and then forced him to ip- cover his head on the way to the | bench.
 Flanagan's good-by was even more practical than his long swatting et- fort would suggest. A piece of f1eld- ing by the outfielder saved Springfield
 from being scored on by the cham
 pions. During the eighth inning.
 while there was a man on third and
 but one out, Hoffman hit into foul
 ground toward the front of left-field
 bleachers, where a flock of watchers | huddled behind the rope. Flanagan
 Nagel and Altizer were all In the chase for the ball. When Steamer I was a few feet from the inclostfre irt
 extended his right hand and the bal
 settled in his glove. The crowd cheer ed continuously and Flanagan was
 obliged to appear before the spectators
 as a fielding hero. Whether Flana'
 gan, the spectators. or the players
 with whom the recruited star has
 been associated, enjoyed the brilliant farewell most. couldn't be decided in
 one glance. Dan O'Neil was boyishly
 happy. Flanagan and all the Spring
 field players stepped lightly about the playing patch and the public settled back and drew it all in with joyous
 appetite. The score:

TERRY MARTIN WON.

At Manchester, \. H., Terry Martin of Philadelphia beat Peter Sullivan of Fall River in fifteen round bout on points on Tuesday night. It was a hustling mill throughout, neither side losing any time in scoring. Sullivan looked like the winner in the first three rounds. He went to his man with a lot of vim. doing considerable Ifamage. After that, however, Martin showed his hand and kept scoring point after point. By the end of the fifteenth he had such an excellent lead that there was no doubt about his victory. Mar tins showing was big surprise.

BEACH RACING THE SAFEST.
New Courses at Cape May and At
 lantic City for Speeding

New courses at Cape May and At
 lantic City for Speeding.
 Beach racing bids fair to become very popular now that speeding on tracks has come to an end because motor ears have grown too fast for the turns. Although not so long as the beautiful course at Ormond In Florida, the stretches of beach fhaf have come to light at Cape May and Atlantic City on the coast of New Jersey, afford every opportunity for fast work with power driven ma- chimes without the dangers that are present on the road and track.
 The beach at Cape May is about two and half miles long. and affords a good mile stretch with a slight turn and an excellent kilometer dash. Over 1t an automobile has traveIed a mile in 3S seconds, which has only twice been excelled. and then only on the beach at Ormond.
 A trife more than three miles of good beach is supplied at Atlantic City, which gives a little longer start. although all races on 1t are limited to a kilometer or a mile. At both places there Is about POO feet of riding surface at low tide, and the beach is so hard that only a slight impression is made when heavy cars pass over if. Both the beaches are two or three seconds slower than Ormond, whose fourteen mile course Is composed largely of coquina clam shells, which when mixed with sand and water. forms a sort of cement that is proof against an Impression from the heavl- est racing cars.

NO REFEREE
 YET CHOSEN
Jim Jeffries on the Grounds and May Be the Choice
 Enormous Advance Sale of Seats For the Fight.

San Francisco, Sept s.-Fully deter mined to referee the Britt-Nelson con test next Saturday, James J. Jenries l,gs arrived from Los Angeles ssk nave accepted the offer of si.ooO to referee the contest between Britt and Nelson, and | will be the third man in the ring when the men meet, and that IS all there Is to it." said he. T understand that Nolan fears Nelson will not get a square deal. But the public has de- manded that officlate, knowing VIII give both sides square deal. If | suspect that the least bit of crooked ness is going on 1 will call the nght off in an instant"
 1t is now the belief of the sporting fraternity that Manager Nolan will be compelled to lay aside his objections and agree to Jeffries as a referee. It is further expected that the deadlock which has existed will be fully broken at the meeting of the fight managers and the referee to be held to-day.
