ing concert. The others will be Willy
Hess. Harold Bauer and Henri Marteau.
For the d'Indy concert no soloist is an

For many years Washington was one
of the cities where concerts by the Bos-

forts were not made to bring II back
again. and this year, through the energy
of Mrs. Katie Wilson Greene such in
ducements were offered the management
that the second series of concerts. which
have heretofore been given in Philadel-
phia. have been transferred to Wash
ington.
The sale of subscription tickets for the
five concerts will open at the ticket Of
flee of T. Arthur Smith, 1927 F street, on

Among the attractions which Miss

music public. While Miss Crvder has
made no further announcements relative

While in London she heard a number
of artists who rarely visit this country
among whom was Caruso, whom Miss
Cryder declares to be genius Twice

pany singers in recital of the famous
French woman's compositions. and later

SKULLS FOR CUPS.

BArbar0vs Custon of F1e1Oo Tribes
Of Northern Europe.
The barbarous custom Of converting
the skulls Of enemies into drinking
cups was a common one in ancient
times among the fierce tribes Of north
ern Europe and was not unknown to
the people Of the more civilized regions
farther south. The Italian poet, Ma
rino, causes an assemblage of friends
to Quaf their wine from the skull Of
Minerva, and in his wonder of
Kingdom" Torrent makes Darker say:
Would had ten thousand soldiers heads.
Their skulls set all in silver, ito drink

To his confusion who first invented war.
Thomas Middleton, dramatic writer
OF the early part Of the seventeenth
century. Is believed to be the origi-
nator Of the phrase, "A soldiers drink
Ing cup" as applied to human skull.
In THE WITCH" one of his most cele-
brated plays. the duke takes q bowl.
which he Is told IL a human skull,
whereupon he exclaims:

his product was shipped. When the
railroad hauled them it paid a rental
called a mileage charge to Armour
for the use of them, afterward collect
ing the full freight rate. This Is az
plausible and proper as sunsnine-pro-
vided. of course, we admit the right OF
private individuals to own railroad
rolling stock This rental varies IN
amount. being / cent a mile for every
mile the car travels in certain parts
of the country; three-quarters or
cent in other parts.
Now. it is plain that the farther the
car runs every day the more II VIII
earn. If it runs 800 miles it may earn
SO a day, if so miles only so cents. Inc
primary advantage of owning a private
car. then. is the mileage it makes.
Armour says with all the plausiblllty
of utter fairness to his scall compet1-
tors:
'"You have as much right to own prl-
vate cars as I have. Go ahead and get
them. The railroads will pay you the
same mileage as they pay me-"
Every word Of this is truthful-and
yet conceals the worst sort of a lie.
Armour's small competitor can own
private cars but he cannot make them
run. For that depends upon having
great influence with the railroads. Ar
mour can and does make his cars run.
Nothing indeed is more impressive in
all the methods Of the beef trust than
Armour's system Of keeping account
of his private cars. At the head OF
the Armour car lines is George B. Rob-
bins, the president of the corporation.
He works in closest touch with o. F.
Frisby, traffic manager Of Armour &
Co. The head office is in the Home In
surance building at Chicago, where
large force Of clerks IS employed,
There are connections with all the rail-
road offices by both telephone and tel
egrapn.
Let us say that Armour delivers IS
cars of beef-a train load-to the rail-
roads at o'clock today. The number
of every car is entered with the date OF
starting, on a huge tally sheet at the
central office. Say the train is bound
eastward by the Grand Trunk. At Els
don, Illinois, the first junction point, an
Armour man is at hand to report the
train At Port Huron there is another
Armour man. He fills out blank pos
tai card reporting the arrival there,
the time taken in re-icing, whether
cars are out Of repair, and so on. Other
Armour men stand ready at the Mag
ara frontier and at every other icing

An English Literary Prescription to
BE Taken During Recovery.
For reading during convalescence the
British Medical Journal prescribes lit
erature that cheers but does not in
ebriate, and warns persons recovering
from illness against writer's whose
style, like that Of George Meredith, puts
a constant strain on the understanding
Of the reader, or, like that Of Maurice

side splitting episodes which would
play havoc with the union Of parts.
For the same reason, in order that

absolutely interdicted.

ABOUT PUSH BALL.
How This Very Interesting Game II
Played.


Played.
Push ball is played on gridiron field
or floor 12O yards long by fifty wide,
with goal posts at either end twenty
feet apart and connected by cross
bar seven feet from the ground. The
mammoth ball, almost globular In
shape, should measure six feet In di-
ameter and weigh between forty-eight
and fifty pounds. 1t is usually inflated
with compressed air.
The ball is placed in the middle of
the field, and the teams line up as fol-
lows: Five forwards on the forty yard
line, two left and two right wings on
the twenty yard line and two goal
keepers on the goal line, eleven men
each. At the sound Of the referees
whistle both sides plunge at full speed
upon the ball, and then the fun begins
If the ball is caught fairly between
the two human battering rams there Is
q rebound from it's elastic sides that
sends the players sprawling like ten
pins.
1t does not take long, however, for
the entire twenty-five men to get
around the sphere, put their shoulders
to the Wheel so to speak, and push for
every ounce Of energy in them. The
heavier, stronger team will, of course,
have the advantage, but some trick
plays have been invented which lend
variety to the game and redeem it
from being featureless contest of
mere Drawn and muscle. - National
Magazine.
