HARVARD CALLS FOR
BASE BALL CANDIDATES

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, December 2S.-With
indoor varsity base ball practice starting
after vacation. the prospects of the 1907
Harvard nine are beginning to attract the
attention Of the undergraduates.
Capt. Dexter has already issued a call for
| material of all kinds to be ready, and, be-
sides that, has been out digging after a
head coach
Harvard athletics. and more especially in
base ball, that Capt Dexter is going to
have his hands full to keep his team run
ming smoothly. The material is undoubted-
ly there for an average good team.
But two positions are left to be filled
first base and pitcher. These gaps have a
surplus of material ready to enter the list,
and it's all good.
For the twirling department. G. F. Greene
'O7, sub pitcher on last years nine is per-
haps the most logical man. He is what
might be termed an Independent ball player
"a novelty at Harvard-and if his best
work doesn't satisfy the coaches in a game
he is satisfied to wait until they send for
him.
Lincoln Good Pitcher.
Carl E. Lincoln. 'Os. is another man who
will go after the position Lincoln has
fair speed a good spitball generally, and
experience on class and prep teams. D. o.
Slater, 'OS; N. X. Hartford, 90, and s. D.
Brush, 90. of last years freshman nine,
and D. c. Brennan, OF, are also possiuLi-
ties.
The other position to be filed is first
base, left vacant by Bart Stephenson. There
will probably be four men that will go
after the first corner, Frank Burr, "; Ar
thur Mccarthy, 'O7 G. F. Waters 'OS, and
Ben Stephenson, 90.
Arthur Mccarthy will probably go out
again for the sack. Mac Is the nearest ap-
proach to Fred Tenney that can be found
in this vicinity. and his batting last year
for eleven games was 81.
Harvard Has Fair Chance.
He can go into the field as well, but on
account of the usual Harvard Athletic AS
ISOLATION difficulties the EXPLOSION Latin
captain has been in and out of his playing
for year. The chances are that if Dexter
and a good coach run the team, Harvard
will have a fair chance.
"Al' Castles name has been put forward
as coach. Castle positively declines the
honor unless he can have the run of the
team and name the men who shall play in
the games.
Paul Coburn has also been put up. but SO
much internal warfare was waged last year
and particularly before the Yale games
that there is only slight probability of
his taking charge. Ed Grant, who was
has his Harvard degree. is another chance.
He also has his stipulations aside from the
mere name.
Capt. Dexter will make known his choice
at the end of the week.
The other positions on the nine will prob
ably be follows: E. p. Currier. 90,
catcher; H. Mccall 90. second base; J. w.
| Simonds. 90. shortstop; C. R. Leonard,
| third base; Capt. w. d. Dexter. '07. center
| field; c. w. Harvey. 90. left field, and ]. D.
Pounds, 'OS. right field.
| The schedule of games has not yet been
| selected, but Yale has Professionally held
| open June 20, %, and 20 for the annual
series.

New Jewish Colony Plan.

The Jewish World of London printed re-
Gently an announcement of a colonization
scheme which included a projected settle
ment near Galveston, Tex. The plan was
TO acquire land for settlement by Jews who
should be brought from Russia and other
countries. The scheme was said to have
the support of the Rothschilds, and 1t was
also said that Jacob Fl. Schiff had promised
to contribute 1900 if similar sum was
raised.
Mr. Schiff said yesterday that the matter
was in too crude shape to be discussed az
present.
From Chicago two weeks ago came news
that Mr. Schiff had discussed with promt-
nent Jews there a new plan to relieve Jew
ish congestion in large cities by sending
Immigrants west and south.

with the completion of a high school
course of study. 1t should be the be-
ginning. rather than the end Of mental
endeavor." He expressed the hope
that the work which had been so faith
fully and honorably done during the
last four years was but a stepping
stone to college and to wider and
broader intellectual culture.
Visions" declared DIR. Rankin, have
been of almost inesumable value to
humankind and have resulted in giving
to civilization some of the greatest
blessings that we enjoy" He gave ex-
amples of people who had striven for
twenty or thirty years to. attain the
visions which had actuated them in
their life work and had at last glor-
iously succeeded. Visions have
prompted men and women TO under
take great things, and by perseverance
they have accomplished wonders little
short of the miraculous.
Visions might easily lead one to
dishonorable ends, but, when they are
used as a synonom for laudable am
bition they subserve a useful purpose
and stimulate men and women to noble
acts and useful lives. The greatest
thing in the world, according to Dr..
Rankin, is character. There are many
qualities which we should cultivate,
but above and beyond them all is
character. II is worth more than all
the money in the universe: is more to
be desired than glory or fame, for it
is imperishable and indestructible.
DIR. Rankin's baccalaureate sermon
last Sunday was one of the most help
full and masterful discourses of the
kind ever heard in Canon City, and
added new laurels to the fame of his
oratory.

The college which it is proposed to
establish in this state under Presby-
terian auspices will have the SYM
pathy and cooperation of educational
leaders in the East and will have a
recognized standing from the start
There are millionaires in the East
who have great interests in Colorado
south of the divide. Some of them are
Christian people, earnestly favorable
to Christian education, particularly
that with the Presbyterian brand upon
it, and they will lend the contemplated
institution every encouragement with
in their power, assuring its success
from the start.
Canon City, with characteristic West
ern hustle, has already been getting in
its fine work to secure the location of
the college there. And other places are
looking at the prize with covetous eyes.
Canon City, free from the distracting
allurements of a city, yet of sufficient
size to AFFORD suitable college environ
ments, and what, say some leaders, is
most desirable, having no saloon,
would be an almost ideal site for the
institution. But, they argue, while
Canon City might be an almost ideal
location, Pueblo is confessedly the To-
gical place. As in former attempt
to locate a Presbyterian college in
Colorado, Pueblo was not backward to
come forward with convincing finan-
cial arguments, so it will be now. But
it will need to get itself busy right
away.

assault. BY this Archimedian wit the
poor man hit on a strategem which
saved the city and though his service
was so signaled and the few men in it,
must have seen the poor man every
day. yet no man remembered this same
poor man. Wise as he was his wis
dom did not bring him bread nor
riches nor favor. Therefore. says the
writer. wisdom alone is not sufficient
to secure success. But wisdom is pro-
fitable to direct.
Wisdom. true wisdom, directs a man
to think and cultivate habits of
thoughtfulness. Power To think and
think well is the result of every edu-
cation. The man who can think is
a success. whether in the hay field. the
carpenter shop or the professors chair.
The end OF all wisdom is in God. The
truly wise man is not wise in. his
own conceit. but wise in the wisdom
that comes from God" The wise man
is the man who has learned his lack
OF wisdom and who has gone to the
Great Teacher.
The wise man is the one who whets
well his scythe before entering the
field. Soiomon's wisdom stood him in
good hand. think he was naturally
a base man. naturally an immoral man.
He sinned grievously. but his wisdom
held him always TO God and out of all
his sin, trial and doubt God brought
him. want TO take a few proverbs
not in the Scripture which Solomon is
supposed TO have written:
The house that does not open to
the poor will open TO the physician, e
teaching kindness of heart and char
ity. Commit a sin twice and you will
begin to think it is quite allowable ''
The reward of good works is like
dates - sweet. but ripening late
When the righteous dies IL is the
earth that loses; the lost jewel is still
a jewel. but he who has lost it,-well
may he weep" Again, Who is wise
He who is willing to learn from all
men who never forgets his God. Who
is strong? He who subdues his pas
sions. Who is rich9 He that has pur-
ity and honor Who is foolish and
poor? He that hath lost these" Then
some proverbs which teach by satire,
witty epigrams: The sun viii go

When the OK is down many are the
butchers" The camel wanted horns,
so they took away even his ears. -

woe to the pitcher: when the stone
falls on the pitcher, woe to the pitcher:
whatever happens, woe to the pitcher"
Look not at the flask. but at that

full OF old wine, and old TASKS which
have not even new wine in them"
Such are the teachings OF the proverbs.
