ARMY AND NAVY GAME.
Proposition to Abolish Free Tickets to
Big Foot Ball Contest.

Ever since the annual foot ball games
between West Point and Annapolis have
been resumed in Philadelphia there has
been a wholesale contention over free
tickets says the Ledger of that city Rep
resentatives. senators, politicians galore
have seized upon the occasion to pay social
and political debts AS result the laity
have been forced to take the few that are
left or else buy at premiums from some I'M
scrupulous MILDLY. cadet or favored poll
tician who sought to make the occasion one
of profit
The annual game of foot ball between the
midshipmen and the West Pointers seems
to be regarded by the athletic associations
of the two branches of the service a per-
manent affair. and they are now consider
ing the future policy and conduct of these
interesting events.
The detail of the arrangements which
seems to give the management most trouble
is the disposition of the tickets of admis-
sion. and the suggestion is now made that
the trouble be ended by selling them instead
of by giving them away, as heretofore.
Commander w. F. Halsey secretary of
the naval association, has sent to the MEM
bers circular asking for postal-card vote
for or against the plan of selling tickets.
The game all know, has in late years
taken place In the athletic field of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania at Franklin field.
For the use of the field the university re-
ceives one-third of the tickets GID, and
the army and navy each the same number.
At first all were complimentary, and the
demand for them has been so great that 1t
was found impossible to crafty even a
large proportion of 1t.
In 1903 the university. finding it impossi-
BILE to give satisfaction I'm the free distribu-
ton of its allotment. determined to sell its
tickets. and to devote the net receipts to
charities of the army and navy. This plan
has worked so satisfactorily that the two
service associations seem to be in favor of
adopting it.
Their annoyance has. indeed been greater
than that which the University of Penusyl-
vania experienced. because the politicians
come down upon them. Members of Con-
gresS have made extravagant demands for
tickets. and because they could not be graft
fled have threatened to hold up the games,
and 1t has been feered that they would
vote against the naval bill.
The difficulty has been increased by the
growth in the number of midshpmen who
have to be supplied with tickets, leaving

NEW ORLEANS RACES.
Only One Favorite Managed to Get
Home in Front

1t was disastrous for the talent at the
New ORLEANS track yesterday afternoon.
Only one popular choice managed to arrive
home on schedule time. This successful
favo-ite was Diplomat in the opening event.

quite a number of Withdrawals from the

The worst upset occurred in the mile
handicap, which was the attraction of the
afternoon. Phil Finch, who won the Oak
land handicap on Saturday in gallop, was
made even money favorite despite the
fact that he carried 120 pounds and was
giving away weight to every other horse in
the race. Phil Finch could not keep up

easily downed by Careless. the pacemaker.

Local Scraps Tomorrow.

frankie Hogan of Philadelphia and Eddie
Lutz of Washington, who are to meet in a
twelve-round bout at a club house near
Washington tomorrow afternoon at $3.50
o'clock. have ceased active training and
are doing more than enough to keep on
edge for the scrap. Each boy has trained
with unusual care, as there is big side
bet up, and the loser will have his troubles
explaining things to his friends. Lutz will
weigh about 124 pounds and will have
about two pounds advantage over the Phil
adelphian. but Hogan has been In more
lights and has had the advantage of spar
ring in the big Philadelphia boxing camp
in which Philadelphia Jack 'Brien, Tommy
Love, young Erne and various other boys
noted for their speed are preparing for their
various bouts. For this reason Hogan is
somewhat of favorite In the betting, but
it is thought that when the men enter the
ring they will be at even money.
The semi-windup will be between Tommy
Ward and Rube Carter, two local boys, who
have been looking for each others scalp
for long time. They will go on for four
rounds, but If the work is close two more
rounds will be added. There will be an
other preliminary between two local lights,
whose names have not yet been an

Sullivan and Erne Draw.

Kid Sullivan profited by his superior
strength 10 get draw with young Erne
at the Washington Sporting Club, Philadel-
pEia, last night. Erne's speed would I'M
doubleday have landed him a victory if
the weights had been equal. for he was all
over his opponent, and landed frequent
hard jabs to sullivan's face. Sullivan even
ed this UP by his aggressive work in the
clinches. His kidney blows took lots of
speed out of the Philadelphia man. and at
one stage 1t looked as though Sullivan
might finish the bout with a knockout. The
first round was clearly sullivan's. but In
the second Ernei began to find him
self and gave as good as he receiv-
ed; in fact. bit better. In the third Sulli-
van cut loose. With one terrific body blow
he put Erne half through the ropes. and
the lanky boxer had to cover up and stall
in order to fight himself out of danger. The
fourth round still showed Sullivan with
an advantage. but Erne came back strong
in the closing rounds, drawing blood and
landing three blows to his opponents one.
Both men were cheered at the finish.

SOMETHING ABOUT SALT.

Salt, which Is an article in daily use
in the humblest homes. has a number
of interesting facts concerning it.
The Romans believed that II the salt
put on sacrifice fell off it presaged
disaster. Hence the origin Of the bad
luck" attendant on salt spilling.
Salt is used all over the world much
in the same way as water, animals and
human beings alike craving for it. In
some parts OF Africa children will eat
1t in preference to sugar, and on the
Gold Coast handful Of salt will pur-
chase two slaves.
The Germans call salt "the gift Of
God" and used to believe that prayers
were better answered when offered near
salt. In the east salt is considered sa-
cred; all oaths taken over 1t are inviol-
able. and when an Arab offers salt to u
guest he guarantees his safety.
