The Paw o. college Athletes.

The most difficult questions that
now assail the management of the
American colleges are how to pay the
professors larger salaries and how to
make the athletes work for nothing.
The latter question is the harder OF
The two. Mr.. Carnegie has helped
with the problem Of the professors
nav. and several of the older universe
ties are raising big funds to the same
end: but to keep the athletes from
drawing salaries is a more complicat-
ed matter. It is accepted in all the
colleges that players and contestants
in intercollegiate games must be
amateurs; players, that is, who do
not play, and have never played, for
hire Just as the Elkins law drives
the railroad lawyers to the concoct-
ing of devices whereby unlawful re-.
bates may lawfully be paid, and
drives freight.agents to dark trans
actions and unreveaded bargains. so
the acceptances Of the law of anna
teurs seems to drive the college law
yers and the team managers to de-
vices by which useful amateurs may
lawfully be hired, or may be paid
surreptitious wages without its COM
ing to public knowledge-Harper's
Weekly.

was purchased at public auction by
Robert j. Collier, of this city, is to be
restored and preserved. Mr.. Collier
said recently that he had not decided
exactly what course to pursue with
regard to the estate. It could be, he
said, turned over to the national gov
ernment and the farm counld be main
tained as a park. The surrounding
country is beautiful and the place is
not far from railroad. Perhaps one

would make it over to such an organi-
zation The cost of maintaining the
place should not be large.

Both Countries May Borrow.

New York, observation-disclosures
banking interests are Of the opinion
that the treaty of peace between Rus
sia and Japan will soon be followed by
a Russian loan and with another later
by Japan. The extent of the loans will
depend largely upon the provisions OF
the agreement between the two coun-
tries. Bankers believe that Russia will
make liberal compensation to Japan,
although this may be provided for in a
separate understanding. 1t is known
that Russia has made ell preparations
for placing part of loan here, and 1T
is well understood that Japan contem-
plates raising more money to pay in
ternal obligations.
