A WORLD BEATER.
Martin J. Sheridan in First Place as
an AIIround Athlete

The most brilliant success among
the victories won by American ath-
letes at the Olympic games at Athens
was achieved by Martin j. Sheridan
Of the Irish-American Athletic club,
New York. His record, including
firsts in free-style discuss throwing
and shot putting. seconds in the stand
ing high jump, and putting the stone,
leads good judges to pronounce him
the best allround athlete in the world.
His triumph at this great internation-
al contest wa sail the more TO his
credit because he was hampered by
an injury to his leg which compelled
which he might have won more points.
The whole meeting was a triumph for
the representatives of America, who
took eleven firsts, six seconds and
FIVE thirds out of twenty nine events.
in many of which, however, Amerl-
cans did not compete. The Mara
thon foot race, the classic event of
the meeting, was won by {. Cara

A LESSON IN TACTICS.
The Sergeant Wanted to Be Sure the
Powder Was Dry.

A volunteer sergeant, in charge Of
Auad of recruits, was waiting in front
of the Dog and Gun tavern, expecting
the arrival of his commanding Off
Ger. Getting rather impatient, the
worthy "non-com." resolved to make
himself more comfortable. Calling his
men together, he told them that he
intended to occupy the time in teach
ing them outpost duty
"You three men," he said, pointing
to sturdy trio, will go to one end
Of the street. Three more of you will
guard the side streets and turnings.
The captain is supposed to be the en-
envy. The Dog and Gun will represent
the camp or fort. When you sight the
enemy raise an alarm, fall back to-
wards the main body, that's myself
and whatever you do, guard against
a possible surprise"
Where be we a-going, then, SER
geant?" one of the men ventured to
ask.
'Tnside the fort you blockhead, to
look after the ammunition" beloved
the worthy instructor.

NJ. Clemenceau, the minister Of the
interior, is the idol of the hour. Slow
ly the populace have recognized that
he is Frances greatest politician. His
speech, in that magnificent political
duel in chamber last month, has
been printed in pamphlet form and dis
tributed widecast throughout the prov
inces.
The speech is everywhere recog-
nized as not merely reply to NJ.
Jaures, the leader Of the Socialist
party, but as a singing rebuke to the
whole party and a defeat of the as
pirations Of its leader.
Clemenceau is the most representa-
tive Radical-Democrat the country has
seen in long time. He is in favor Of
many Of the Socialists tenets, but
draws the line at anarchy and victory
of any sort gained by violence. Ernest

WILD GIRL IN A PARK.

There is no city in the world which has so many institutions for the friend less girl as New York. Consequently, when we read that a young German woman of the name of Mazda Carten- sen, only T years old. lived in the bushes of Mount Morris Park two weeks and fed herself on the crusts which were left in the park by the children, with the occasional luxury of a bottle of milk stolen from the door ways along Madison avenue, it seems to be high time that a girl of this char acter should be thoroughly taken care Of and an investigation made as to her sanity. In the meantime We would like to know what the police in charge of Mount Morris park were doing these two whole weeks.-New York Globe.

TOO MUCH CIVILIZATION.

"The advanced state of civilization in the United States is responsible for the surprisingly large amount of surgery performed by American physicians. Railroads. automobiles and high build ings are the causes of most of the ills that flesh is heir to here. Life is more worth living in China"
 This is the impression of American life which will be taken to China by Gin Wa Chan, a medical student, who left Chicago recently to assume an in structorship in surgery in the imperial university of Pe6in. He was the first Chinaman to pass an examination be- fore the Illinois state board of medical examiners. Chan was sent to this country by the Chinese government at the instance of the empress dowager.- Chicago Dispatch.

" None Are So Blind as
 Those Who Won't See. J

There's no truer saying. There are those who won't see simply because they won't wear glasses. They see but half what others see. Neither do they see the danger of letting defective eyes go uncOrTeCted.
 Others see well, but do so by an overdraft of nerve and muscle force. Especially is this true in children and young people. The result is headache and many other aches, all of which, when caused by eyestrain, may be re- moved by using proper glasses.
