Something of the snap that high-claSs

Of the White Sox and ex-star of the

was telling Of the experience he and

little team al Einsdale. n. II.
Although the town had only 800 inhab-
itants it paid Ruelbach s1z5 a week TO
pitch FOR its team@.:le pride Of the town.
That proved to ne only ''necktie money"
with Ruelbach, for he made even more
wages by receiving on the side $3.50 for
every man he struck. out and $50 for
every time he pitched out of his turn.
AS Hinsdale met many hard teams RueI-
bach pitched about two extra games a
week, and in one game struck out eight
cen of his opponents, so that his extra
compensation for that game alone
amounted to s45 for strike-outs and $50

As feeling ran high in games between

there was considerable speculation. and
when Reulbach was cartied to pitch he
usually backed himself with as much
money as he could find takers for.
Reulbach made so much money with

COLLEGE SPORTS
SHORTEN LIFE?
Statistics Refute Widely
Popular Fallacy.
INVESTIGATIONS AT YALE
Show Better Expectation of Life Than
General Average of In
sured Lives.

According to DR.. William G. Anderson,
in his article on Making a Yale Ath-
lete," in Everybody's Magazine for July.
the college athletics tend to prolong
rather than to shorten life.
The hostile criticism says Dr. An
derson, that athletes die young has
been so often made without definite
refutatien that it passes for truth
among those who mistake rumor for
fact. An investigation of the health
and longevity of college athletes must
be exhaustive to furnish trustworthy
data.
Realizing the Importance of such sta
tistics, Prof. Franklin B. Dexter. the
librarian of Yale, has recently COM
pleted the task of collecting the records
of 761 athletes who competed in inter-
collegiate events and won their 'Ys on
the eleven, the nine, the crew, and the
track team between 1856 and 1904. This
material was gathered for a prominent
life insurance company, and later given
to the director of the gymnasium. The
main deductions are as follows:
Real Statistics.
.'Of these 761 athletes, 81 have died
since graduation. The causes were:
consumption. II; pneumonia. 4; drown
ing, 6; heart disease, 2; suicide, 2; war
and accident, 8; died from unknown
causes. or disappeared. 10; from various
diseases (fever, appendicitis, cancer,
diphtheria. paresis, dissipation, etc), H.
"Of these 81 men. is rowed, 16 played
football, IL were track athletes, and s
played baseball. The ages of those who
have died show these extremes and
averages:
Average ages
Sport Extremes of age. at death
Crew ...-....... 20 to 6S years 41.7 years
Football 1890. % to 81 years 30.3 years
Baseball 49,. 20 to SO years 2S3 years
Track q tot33 years 25.4 years
Living Examples.
Turning to the 10 living athletes;
those who have passed 40 may be thus
grouped: 112 men are between 20 and 49
years of age; eighty-six men are be-
tween so and So years of age; twenty
two men are between so and SO years
"Of the Yale athletes in their latter
years, fourteen are between SO and 65,
one is 65. three are 66 one is 81, two are
6S and one is SO. In brief. barring vfo-
lent deaths. only forty of these 761 Yale
athletes. in a period of nearly fifty
years, have been lost from the ranks of
the living.
II have been assured by life insur-
ance expert that college athletes, bar
ring the track men, show better
average expectation of life than. their
non-athletic classmates, and much bet
ter than the general average of insured
lives

PUT LINCOLN IN OFFICE.
Only Two Survivors Of the Illinois
Electors.

Only TWO Survivors Of the Illinois
Electors.
AS the Hon. William Pitt Kellogg.
former senator from Louisiana. and
Judge Lawrence Weldon Of the Court
Of Claims, gave each other cordial
greeting in the lobby of the Shore
ham yesterday, the interesting fact
was recalled that these two men are
the only survivors of the Illinois cleo
tors, who in 1860 were chosen to cast
the vote Of that state for Abraham
Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin.
YES" said Gov. Kellogg, Judge
Weldon and | alone are left of the
eleven, who in that historic campaign
delivered theyyote Of Illinois to Lin
coin. The full list of electors from
our state was: Leonard SWEET, John
M. Palmer. Allen c. Fuller William
B. Plato. Lawrence Weldon, william
P. Kellogg James Stark, James c.
Conklin, II. P. H. Bromwell, Thomas
G. Allen and John Olney. Several OF
these, notably John M. Palmer and
Leonard Swett, became famed after
ward throughout tho nation.
Gen Palmer won fame In the war.
and led the Fourteenth corps In the
Atlanta campaign. He was also gov
ernor' Of Illinois from 1869 to 1873,
United States senator in 1892. and in
1896 was the candidate Of the gold
Democrats for president.
This same year of the Lincoln
campaign continued Gov Kellogg In
further reminiscent vein. Richard
Yates was elected governor of Illi-
nois. As war governor he gave
Grant the opportunity that made him
the; greatest general in history. Yates
was Reelected to the gubernatorial

Jewels in Bed 100 Years.


A young chauffeur, who had lodg-
ings in a hotel in the Rue Boccador,
Paris, France, had recently been com
planning to the hotelkeepers that his
bed was so uncomfortable as to pre-
vent him from sleeping. In vain they
changed the mattresses and pillows;
the feeling of discomfort persisted
until the young man started to inves-
tigate for himself Feeling that the
bolster contained something hard, he
ripped it open and found wooden
box. Inside he discovered ten gold
watches of the time of Louis XIV, and
several other articles of valuable jew
eiry, with newspaper clippings bear
ing the date Of 1897.
The police on investigation found
that the bolster had been bought by
the hotelkeeper from his predecessor.
and that the jewelry and watches had
probably been hidden in the bolster
during the troubles following the
French revolution, and had remained
for more than century without an
owner. 1t is probable that the chauf-
feur will be allowed to retain the
treasure.

For Holding Bottles and Cleansing.
As the nursing bottle is an essential
feature in the average household, the
wonder is that appliances for its eff
ficient and convenient manipulation
are looked upon as scuriosities and
luxurles, instead of being considered
necessities. The only explanation Of
this phenomenon is apparently found
in the inherent trait in woman that
induces her to go through life with
out adequate tools and appliances,
compelling her to resort to the much
maligned hairpin It is to the credit
Of womankind, however, that the bot

Teaching the Young Idea.

"One day at st. Louis. said drum
mer Il saw three little savage child
ren stabbing into tub Of water with
daggers. A man stood over them and
when one gave the water an unusu-
ally clean stab the man would emit
a grunt Of appreciation and pat the
ycungster on the head.
"A guide told me that these child
ren were learning to handle the dag
ger-and that the use Of the dagger
was always taught among the tribe
that way.
HE said that a child practiced and
practiced till he could stab wates with
out making a splash. Then he was
promoted to stabbing the carcasses OF
dead animals. Then he stabbed live
animals that were in motion.
Il took one Of the daggers and tried
to stab the water cleanly myself I
couldn't do it. With every stroke
made tremendous splash. The lit
tie savages laughed and their mentor
igrunted scornfully.'
