In World.


Besides the many features already
chronicled, the new White City man
ayers, Darcy & speck, have concluded
arrangements to bring here for the first
of the season the Aztec Twins, the only
ones in the world.
The free outdoor vaudeville bill will
open on Saturday with a troupe of
trained horses from Europe, including
Vinella's pugilistic equines. These
horses display an intelligence almost
human, and perform tricks that appear
impossible. The troupe is brought here
for a whole week at great expense, and
is only a forerunner of the many sem
sational free features that will be seen
at this home of wholesome outdoor
amusement this season.

You know the moral-hunting man.
He likes to preach and be preached at.
How often do you hear him say, with
conscious pride, 81 never read book
unless 1t Is instructive and elevatiny.
/ can't waste my time on high-f1own
fancies." He may be worthy citizen,
model neighbor, a good husband. brt
he is not the kind Of man you'd like
to go fishing with. And Just here is
where that Hall of Fame jury made
the mistake which has caused a pro-
test on both sides of the Atlantic. In
the rejection of Poe and the selection
of Whittier for honors in this lofty
institution 1t would seem that moral
character rather than literary genius
Is the essential qualification for un-
dying fame. Granted that man Is
as bad as his worst feelings. Isn't
he also as great as his greatest work :?
What is highest literature or truest
art but the clearest expression of man
at his best? The beauty which man
creates must first dwell in his own
soul. And true goodness and great
ness will sometimes thrive all the BET
ter in soil that Is not too sterile of
the human element. When Raphael
painted his master altarpiece it was
not moral enthusiasm-it was not de-
sire to teach purity and sanctity -
that inspired him to the work He did
not try to give faithful portrait OF
Mary, daughter of the house of
David. He saw the flower girl on the
street: the radiance of her counten-
ance so filled his soul that he could
not rest until he had perpetuated ner
lOveliness: and as we drink in the
purity Of expression. the wistfulness
of the far-seeing eyes, the tenderness
Of the whole character of the Sistine
Madonna, do we not perceive the be.

conception of wOmanhood and mother

and himself. Another Of the worlds
great masters, Robert Burns, failed in
many things, but his songs go straight
to the heart. They will live as long as
men live and love. And the best of
him lives in them. 1t was much the
same with Poe. His life may have
been a curse to himself, his family and
his friends. Yet those rare flights Of
genius which make him the tall pine"
in American literature reveal his
higher self in lightning flashes. A
mans work is the thing.

One Of the tests of philosophical
soul Is the reasonableness with which

treasured doctrines die without losing
faith in the whole scheme of things. A

magazine. She humorously protested
that she had beep thrown into state
of universal skepticism. The wise per-
son will not lose sleep or stop going to
circuses simply because the real mer-

leather. The person who makes up his
mind too resolutely never to be fooled
again will miss a great deal of intel
lectual serenity.

SHORT METER SERMONS.

God is not lauded by libeling men.
Bad news never spoils by keeping.
True blue seldom sees things blue.
The greatest art of life is that of
living.
Nothing worries worry worse than
work.
Sow small joy and reap a great
happiness.
1t takes more than diplomacy to de-
feat the devil.
He needs to wear wading boots who
takes short cuts to success.
The value of strong mans power
depends on his patience with the weak.
Better is it to- drive the gloom from
one heart than to dover it with gold.
1t Is easy to waste enough strength
lodging your duties to do them twice
over.
Bearing the cross does not EXEMPT
one from bearing a share Of the worlds
cares.
If some hearts should go to heaven
there would be hard frost there right
off.
Some people never feel good unless
they are making others feel the other
way.
1t Is the man who fears to soil his
hands who will worry least about his
heart.
The man whose voice browns the
choir in church sings small on the
street.
In sad world the only saints who
have right to sleep are the ones in
the graveyard.
Gods workers never have to wait for

their best.

ging" is contrary to the rules, the hir-
Ing of outsiders to play in college and
academy teams is forbidden, and va
rious other things are condemned. Yet
In spite of the rules, the conduct of
many players and their trainers sug-
gests that they deem 1t more important
TO win a game than TO play fairly
The decentralization has progressed so
far that college presidents have be-
gun to protest against the practice of
teaching the players how to violate the
rules of the game without being found
out. When matters have reached such
pass 1t Is time to call a halt. Col
lege and academy sports should be con-
Quoted in sportsmanlike manner. a
victory won by fraud or trickery should
be made so unpopular that the man
or team winning 1t should be forced in
very shame to refuse to accept the
award. The only way to bring this
about Is for those who believe in fair
play to insist upon it at all times. If
every high-minded youth who finds his
associates playing unfairly should re-
fuse to take part until the unfalrness
is eliminated, the reform would soon
be secured There are already encour-
aging signs that the high-minded stu
dents are asserting themselves. Those
in large academy in New York have
set an example by deciding to play no
more games with other schools. They
wish other schools to discontinue the
game, and thus cut off the supply of
material for the colleges, and thereby
force them to amend the rules radical
ly. The idea is good one, and is to

Privilege Is the root of all evils in

Oldest sources Of wrong in the world

shows that human nature is too frail TO

think of this particular game, thous-
ands of the older and younger gener-
alton keenly care for fair athletics be-
tween colleges.
While what we call athletics have
primarily to do with Drawn and mus
Gle, they are more than intercollegiate.
1hey touch the question of success or
failure in the worlds arena, because
their principles directly concern the
struggle of life itself. 1t is not idle
moralizing to say that athletics can
meet US in more ways than manly
sport. No athlete is worthy a great
football team who does not in self
abnegation sacrifice time, energy and
the habit of easy living to the rigid
discipline necessary for effective de-
velopment.
NO athlete can hope to win who does
not strive at utmost for practical skill
Nor can he what least, he cannot in
tootDall-without fearlessness, endur-
ance, perseverance, no matter what
may come. All the intensity he can
muster must be aimed at one end-the
earning of a victory which he knows
is to be hard fought.
But is not the mercantile world. with
It's difficulties and competitions. an
Ideal field for the application of these
great principles of strenuous athletics
the principles Of skill, pluck and per-
sistence? Such young men as treat
the duties of their clerkships or other
positions easily and lightly while read
ing enthusiastically the news of ath
letic vigor by others, seem not always
to comprehend the opportunity that
confronts them for demonstrating their
own manhood.
Too often they deceive themselves.
while admiring "go" in others, into
feellng certain share in it. very
much as Don Quixote felt in the ex

the acute contrast in their own char

or rough play at football and then
forthwith make false play in business

qualify, as he should their further

ment Of true athletics Is needed In the

What is thus pointed to as undenia
bly, true of the mercantile world is
just as true Of the conflict every man
has within himself which constitutes
his game Of existence. The internal
struggle is usually in secret, so that
even nearest friends know little of it.
Perhaps mercifully they can never com
prehend 1t to the full. Yet the man
himself knows keenly enough how real
