OUTDOOR SPORTS.
Varieties of Recreation INDUCED by
Famous Americans.
FROM the Phlladelphla Public Ledger

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Young men with iron in their blood note
that President Roosevelt and Former Pres!-
dent Cleveland are earnest advocates and
opponents of outdoor life. However diff
fcrentiated in other particulars, these two
great Americans lind common ground in
their devotion to Open-alr exercise. each IN
his own fashion. Mr.. Cleveland, since his
retirement from the presidency. has fire.
uuently given his follOwcountrymen coun-
sci in various matters OF moment. lie APP
pears now In the Country Calendar with
a brief in advocacy of outdoor sports and
recreation, and argues his case with the
rugged force ana irankneSS which diSt!n-
guish all his deliveries. He insists that all
of us should be made to realize that out
door air and activity. intimacy with nature
and mountaineering with BIRDS and ami
mails and fishes are essential to physical
and mental strength.
Anemic and cioiStered statesmen We're
probably shocked when the great chief JUS
tice, John Marshall found respite in pitch
ing quOits in the yards of country inns. but
the exercise doubtless contributed to the
strength Of his robust intellect 1t Is worthy
of remembrance that many American
statesmen We're great hUntsmcn and fisher
men. Fishing is 4 cOntemplatiVe sport,
which, in the case of Daniel Webster. has
been servlceable in the solution of knotty
problems of the law and Statecraft. 1t is
said that some Of his most sonorous pc
RODS We're composed while he was sitting
on 4 log beside some bdDbIilS stream. i he
brooks had a message for Webster unheard
by other knights of the rod.
The Sage of Monticello was another ardent
deVOtee of the out-Of-dOor life, and his
writings abound in praise of exercise. Il
give more time he says. Ito exercise OF
the body than of the mind. believing II to
be wholesome to both" President Roose-
Welt walked dozen miles one Of the
hot days of this week. Jefferson, who was
Il walker, held that a carriage is no better
than cradle for exercise. Here is a pas
sage that should delight Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Cleveland: las to the species of the
exercise | advise the gun. While this gives
moderate exercise to the body, it gives
boldncss, enterprise and independence TO
the mind. Let your gun be the constant
companion Of your walks"
This philosophic statesman believed that
exercise and recreation are as necessary as
reading. He recorded late in life that the
delight of his retirement was constant bod
lily activity. The great attention given to
outdoor sports in our day may disturb the
desk, but barring excess. they are whole
some for the national life. AS Mr.. Cleve-
land we'll says in the contribution from
which we have quoted, men may accumu-
late wealth and neglect the outdoor air and
activity. but they VIII forfeit far greater
boon than wealth.

TWO CoNTUMACIoUs NEGROES
Stirred Up Small Riot in George

Officer Johnston of the seventh precinct

burly negro about forty years old, in
Georgetown last night because the latter
endeavored to stir up a small riot and
made himself generally disorderly and
offensive to pedestrians. The scene Of
Grayson's operations was at the corner of
S2d and NJ streets northwest The real
cause Of the fracas grew out of the mans
limited consuming power for bad whis-

flask he stationed his proud personality

thirty Indians in to dinner Sometimes there
are more. seldom less. and on unexpected
occasion they all come. We never can tell
when or how many are going TO call for a
meal. They keep our Chinese cook on the
ragged edge of nervous prostratinu.
The heaviest strain on our hospitality is
right after there have been number of
deaths among the Indians. The hcreaved
Indian always gives away everything he
possesses to show his sorrow. and then he
comes to for food and financial lift
It's the sort of thing you must expect when
you lease Indian lands. The land We lease

Indians handsomely This year have

There are on the ranch 1000 head of cattle.

about $50 dozen. SO We are never pressed

For Uniform Game Laws.
From Field and Stream.

From Field and Stream.
Reviewing the work OF the legislatures
of the various states, ii Is noticeable how
widespread is the sentiment in favor OF
uniform game and fish laws. In the ma
jority OF cases they are advocated for two
or three states which are separated by a
large river or which, for some similar rea-
son, are closely allied respecting game or
fish interests. The movement Is spreading
year by year; the old practice of Quarreling
across the borders of states is giving way
to a friendlier feeling: more is heard of the
proposals to give over protection of fish
and game to the federal government What
the outcome will be Is not far to seek,
1t will never do to have uniform laws for
all states, or even for any large number
of them. But the future laws of the north
states will be made with more Difference
to the conditions in the south. and vice
versa. since III common interest in game
and fish protection Hill be found the solu-
ton OF any problems that have vexed our
sportsmen and will continue to vex them
until there are comprehensive changes for
the better.
