The Athletic Association.

The mem bers of the Columbus
Athletic Association are much
elated over having won the hand
some library which was recently
given by local merchants to the
club or institution receiving the
largest number of votes. There
was a rousing meeting of the as
ISOLATION last Wednesday night,
at which time the following com
mittee on sports and amuse-
ments were appointed: Base
Ball. Messrs. Sydney Bluhm.
Emmett Mahon and Edward
Harris: Basket Ball, Messrs.
Frank Harris, VIM. Strauss and
J. Hodgkins; Lawn Tennis,
Messrs. Erskine Hopkins, Chas.
Hopkins and L. Goldstein. These
committees will look after the
three different sports named
above. The boys have been
practicing basket ball for some
time past. and two teams will be
organized and match games play
ed during the coming spring and
summer. A tennis court will be
laid out on the lawn immediate
ly west Of the club house, and
the members who are fond Of
this delightful and invigoratine
sport will have ample opportuni
. ty to indulge in it.
, OF cOure the most i'm pOrtant o
all the above mentioned com nit
tees is the one appointed to look
! after base ball. From presen
, indications Columbus will no
have professional team in th'
field this year, and our only de
pendence for base ball lies il the
t Athletic Association. There il
! plenty OF material 10 the assoc
iatiOn to organize a first claS:
t team. and this is just what the
} committee intends to do 1t:

An Even Hundred Dollars.

1t is the little things in life that
count. It's the odds and ends in
business which mark success or
failure. So it is with everything.
If the little things are carefully
looked after the greater things
will care for themselves.
Here's an example of what a
little enterprise com bined with
domestic pleasure accom- plished
last year. Mr.. Gid d. Harris is
a fancier of fine poultry. Last
year he had sixty White Leghorn
chickens. He kept an accurate
and careful account of their ex-
penses and their revenue and on
the first Of March he found that
his poultry investment had net
ted him ia the twelve months
preceding $1O2 90 This too.
without any great trouble or
worry or Sacf]uce OF blme.
What Mr.. Harris did, others
are doing. There are a large
mum Der Of poultry raisers in this
section and they find that it is
paying. The idea Of sixty hens
earning over ard above all OF
their expenses over a dollar and
a half apiece in twelve months is
an eye opener for many, and
poultry raising is rapidly in
creasiug and on a large scale.
There is an unlimited demand
for all poultry products and
every man who has the room and
the time should undertake poul-
try raising. It pays.

Repairs to be Undertaken.

At meeting of the Board of
Trustees of the First Methodist
church which was held last
Thursday it was decided to take
steps to Immediately repair the
damage which the church sus-
tanned from the heavy snow
which fell last month and which
melted and leaked through the
roof, causing extensive damage
to the walls, furniture and fix
lures in the auditorium and IN
the Sunday school room below.
The repairs will be thorough and
extensive. The building now
has parapet walls, which are
constructed in such manner
that it is impossible for water TO
run off the roof, and when there
comes a snow or a rain fall which
is too heavy to be carried off by
the cutters the surplus water &C
cumulates on the roof and leaks
through to the auditorium below.
1t is the intention Of 5he Board
Board of Trustees to have these
parapet walls torn away. and
they will be replaced by cornice.
which will not only enable the
water to escape from the roof
but will add to the architectural
beauty of the building as we'll.
OF course it will require quite
a large sum Of money to make
these repairs. in fact it is be-
lieved that it will be necessary to
expend about four thousand dol
lars to complete the work. The
trustees, however, anticipate no
trou bic in raising the money, as
the congregation of the First
Methodist church is one Of the
largest aud wealthiest in the
State. There are many mem
bers of the congregation who are
wealthy and these will give liber-
ally. while those who are not so
well off in this world s goods wilt
give as much as the condition Of
their finances will permit. The
money will certainly be raised.
and the officers of the church
hope and believe that it can be
raised quickly and with compar
atively little trouble.

LARGE FAMILIES PREFERRED,
Owner of Apartment Houses Says He
Welcomes Youngsters.

NEW YORK, April 17.-If President
Roosevelt were in the knighting BUSH
ness, it is safe guessing that about the
first person to get into favor when the
first gentleman of the land returns
from the west would be John Monag-
han of Bronx.
Mr. Monaghan is a man after the
presidents own heart. He has three
apartment houses, and refuses to rent
to tenants who are without children.
He is building two more houses for
families with children, and he hopes
to have eighteen apartment buildings
where children will be at a premium.
This is what the remarkable land
lord says of his unusual course:
1T may be a queer thing for a
landlord to invite families with chill
dren into his houses, but that s what
I am doing. Why nave seen SO much
suffering from this inhuman prohibit
ton against children in apartments
that l think it is time to act.
Il have five children myself. What
would I do if the landlord chased my
family from pillar to post, as though
we were infected creatures? I suppose
other landlords viii; say am eccentric.
1t isn't eccentricity, it is humanity.
Families with children are good
tenants from business standpoint.
They are not fussy and they are not
always asking for improvements. An
other thing: Families with children
stay long time. They are not always
moving.
1.-The question Of rent has nothing
to do with the children. 1 am not Of
fering any premiums for big families,
CIR any of that funny business. This
is serious matter

GIVEN PENSIONS; NEVER IN WAR
PennsyIvanians Never In Service Get
Money-Warner Gusts Officials,

PennsyIvanians Never In Service Get
Money-Warner Gusts Officials.
WASHINGTON, April 17.-Colonel
Vespasian Warner, the new pension
commissioner, mas gwen the pension
office clique a severe shaking up by is
suing an order on ten members of the
board of review to show cause why
they should not be removed for slip
shod methods in issuing pensions to
members of certain regiments who
were never in the service of the federal
government.
Colonel Warner has taken a decided
stand against such action and will in
sist that satisfactory explanation be
forthcoming or the ten men under
charges retire. The delinquencies were
in connection with the allowance of
claims from members of a Pennsylva-
MIA regiment that had never been in
the volunteer service.
The cases that brought about the
action of the commissioner date back
as far as May of last year. 1t appears
that in 1861, there was a regiment of
Pennsylvania company organized by a
Colonel McLane at Erie, Pa. At the
call for three months men the regiment
went into camp at Pittsburg and was
offered for service. The men arrived
too late to be accepted, however, as
the quota from Pennsylvania had been
completed.
Application for pension was made
some years ago by member of the
regiment, and the case was taken up
to the higher authorities and by them
decided that the members of that regi-
ment were not reasonable. Last
spring application was made for pen
sion by member of the regiment and
the application was granted.
1t was also found that two claims in
the First regiment of MERGERS brigade
Of the New Jersey national guard,
regiment occupying the same status as
the Pennsylvania regiment, mad been
allotted.
Commissioner Warner says that ne
is determined that such practices shall
be stopped in his term of office.

cept wives, and in the divorce courts
there have been cases of that even
But the disease Is not confined to men

On the whole, I'm not sure the sort OF
woman who progresses in her belong
ings, so to speak, is not more clever
than she VINO 'hangs on indefinitely.
The great idea is to get rid OF things
when they are going out Of style or you
feel you won't need them any more-to
get rid Of them at that very moment
and let the money go toward the new
things needed instead Of boarding use
less stuff. Some women make friends

their house; others regard him as their
natural enemy.
