time defeating the Dartmouth
Freshmen Reserves" on Vail field
Tuesday afternoon. The visiting
collection of first year men from Han
over had probably never played to-
gether before and probably never
will again, and about all the game
amounted to was little try-out for
the locals.
After the first inning the contest
was one-sided to the end. In the
second the locals scored ten times,
Manager Howes leading the process
sion, and more runs came every in
ming.
Wyatt pitched his usual good
game, and likewise felded his posi-
ton in first class manner.
Rogers was put up behind the
bat and appeared to make good on
his first appearance.
The locals used the stick elfec-
lively and everything in the shape of
hit counted a run.
Fitzmaurice, another new player,
also showed up finely at second base
and batted well. He stole enough
bases to last season, all of the To-
Gals showing up well in maneuvering
for position.
The first battery put in by the
visitors made a bad job of pitching
and catching; the second was a
change for the better and might
have cut out some of the tragic fea-
lures of the battle if it had been
brought up to the firing line earlier
in the engagement.

WERE CHRISTIANS IN PoMPEII
Symbols Of That Religion Unearthed d
During Excavations,

Newly discovered evidence that the
Christian religion was known in the
city of Pompeii before its destruction
by the eruption of Vesuvius in the
year 79 runs counter to the accepted
theories OF the archaeologists. OF
course the proof may be disputed as
not being conclusive. But the terra
Gotta lamp of common Roman pattern
bearing the symbols of Christianity
which had been unearthed in the
course Of excavations by the Italian
government is stubborn fact. Stu
dents OF antiquity have frequently
constructed elaborate theses on film
sier foundations.
There is nothing inherently improb-
able in the idea that followers of the
Christian faith existed in Pompeii
Twenty years before its destruction
the Apostle Paul had reached Rome.
The Christian sect had already gain
ed foothold there and Paul was al
lowed to continue his preaching un-
| harmed for some time. When he was
brought back captive to the imperial
capital and sentenced to death in the
year 50 the Christians had plainly be-
come numerous enough TO be regard
ed as a dangerous influence in the
state. In fact, five years earlier Nero
had laid the burning of Rome to the
Christians, whom he afterward cruel
ly prosecuted. Short of positive proof
what more plausible presumption
does history offer than in the twenty
years following Paul's arrival in Italy
the Christian doctrine should have
been heard at Pompeii, only a days
sail from Rome on a much travelled
route?
So far less than half of the buried
city has been explored. What secrets
about the life of the people remain
concealed under the ashes of Vesuvi-
us no one can say. 1t may be that
further research will establish beyond
doubt that Christianity was an ac-
tive religion in Pompeii in the days
when the elder Pliny perished at the
spectacle of its ruin.

ABOUT GOO COO" EYES
FORBIDDEN IN HOUSTON, TEXAS.

Defined by Judge Of City court-In.
clude stares, Winks and osIins
with intent"-No Sane Man Safe
If the Girls Are Pretty.
Texas has furnished the country
with definition of the much-used and
little-understood term "goo-goo" eyes,
1t appears that the city of Houston
not long ago passed an ordinance for
bidding the making OF this sort of eyes
and the question that naturally arose
In the minds of innocent young men
was what they really were.
The Judge of the corporation court
OF Houston, after having pondered pro-
foundly among his dusty tones and
consulted the stale authorities of his
bloodless profession, has delivered
herself OF this opinion: "a stare is
'goo-goo, IL 1t Is committed with in
tent; wink accompanied by intent
Is 'goO-goo'; likewise the cooking OF
an eye, ogling, making wide eyes, all
come within the broad sweep of the
term 'goo-gOo' If accompanied by in
tent"
1t appears that the offense depends
entirely on the intent Of the "goo-goo."
Intent being a necessary concomitant,
then 1t must follow that a seeming
"goo-goo" is really "goo-goo" IL the
stare, wink, ogling or wide" eyes
whatever that may be-is unaccom-
panied by intent. One may stare like
dead fish at pretty face in Houston
without breaking the law of man, but
let even the faintest shadow of sus-
picion of sympathetic intelligence light
up the offending orb and to jail he
goes. 1t is left to the prosecuting wit
ness to say whether certain optical
acrobatics are accompanied with in
tent. And she must guess at it. Who
ever heard of woman having the
least suspicion of what a man means
when he stares, winks, ogles or makes
wide" eyes at her? Poor, innocent
dear, she isn't supposed to know. Yet
the men in Houston are made victims
to the caprice of these innocent charm
ers who confessedly are not experts in
discriminating between the ''goo-goo"
courteous, the ''goo-goo" with circum-
stance and the 'goo-goo' direct.
The girls in Texas can fiirt all they
want to, but the moment a mans eye
even glistens in the sun the object OF
his adulation can have him sent to the
rockpile or drawn and quartered, or
whatever punishment is considered to
fit the crime in Houston.
After this opinion no sane man is
safe in Houston unless he is blind or
has dyspepsia. or the girls are less
attractive than in other parts Of the
state. The moment he steps from the
train he is in danger. If pretty face
confronts him and he gazes at it a
trife longer than he would at garb-
age cart. then there is intent, of
course, and it's bad day for him.
II a girl should smile at him, and in
stead of dropping his eyes and running
away he should commit The flagitious
crime of smiling back. it would mean
solitary confinement, at least. What

KNOWS SECRET OF DIAMONDS.

ITALY TO BE REckoNED WITH.
Continental Trade Condition Liable
to BE Overlooked.

Italian cleverness in machinery Is
one of the continental trade condi-
tions which, it is pointed out, Ameri-
can enterprise sometimes forgets
when rating European manufacturers
who have been in the field longer
than themselves and have some oppor-
tunities superior to those of the Yam
kee. The Italian ability to copy ma-
chiAAry made in other countries IS
remarkable. The Italians are keenly
alive to the fact that they might not
only supply their own home markets
from their own workshops. but that
they may enter the export trade as
one OF the strongest competitors of
America. The greatest thing for
Italian trade this year has been the
success OF the pair of Italian ma
chimes in a series Of motor car races.
In Milan and the country round there
are about a dozen factories capable Of
competing in the manufacture of au-
tomobiles. paper bags, wrappings,
tools. engravings and engraving ma
chimes. electrical and other machines
and their parts. and of many other
articles. 1t is these and all of Ameri-
cas- other strongest European COM
petitors that will exhibit in Milan's
exposition next year. The American
consul there advises Uncle Sam to
send his best goods thither. lest by
failing to do so he lose much business

Balance Of European Power.

1t is q sound maxim that the proper
function Of diplomacy is not to make
war but to make peace and secure its
continuance. Certainly no public ser.
want can be more usefully employed
than in the preservation of good neigh.
borhood between the nations. The
maintenance Of immense military ar
maments by the great powers, how
ever, proves that they have not yet
reached the stage of perfect mutual
confidence. 1t has been the policy of
European statesmen generally Tor
some 400 years to secure by "bal-
ance OF power" immunity against the
aggressiveness of any one dangerous
