British Experts Decide That It May
BE Played While Life Lasts.
DR.. T. G. Allbutt, regius professor of
physics at Cambridge university, re-
Gently gave out the dictum that the
law ought to forbid any man to begin
playing the game before he is thirty
five years old, until which time he Is
capable Of more vigorous athletics.
DR.. Allbutt, according to a London
cable dispatch to the New York Sun.
left it to be inferred that golf should
only be regarded as kind of last re,
sort for those lettering down hill to-
ward senility.
The presentation Of the golf problem.
In this form led to inquiries among the
best known opponents and amateurs
Of British athletic games. AS a result
the following table was compiled, rep
resenting theories as we'll as practice:
Cricket should be abandoned at 40
years; football, 80; hockey, IS; lawn
tennis, by women, IS, and bV men 60;
rowing, 60. The age for quitting cy-
cling was not definitely fixed.
According to the table, golf should be
played while life lasts, but should not
be begun too young. Scotlands ice
sport, curling, alone takes no regard
for time, but looks forward to eter-
nifty.

LYNCH TO BE GUARDIAN
FOR INDIAN MINORS

The department has arranged that
Agent Jay Lynch shall act as guardian
for minor Indian children on the reser-
walton, says the Yakoma Republic.
This arrangement is one that Mr..
Lynch has been urging for a long
time past, and one that will be of
great benefit to the Indian children
concerned. 1t affects particularly the
leasing of Indian lands. Where these
lands belong to minor children of a de-
ceased Indian, the only way they could
be leased was to go into court and in
the regular way have guardians ap-
pointed to transact the business. This
was very expensive, and in some cases
the cost was so great that it was not
practicable to try to lease the lands
at all. Now, without expense. the
agent will be authorized to execute
the leases.
There Is probability that the agent
will also be given authority later which
will enable him to sell such lands as
guardian under proper restrictions.

Fender Saved a Dog.

AS a car came hiking down Eighth
street yesterday afternoon at lively
gait the value Of the fender which
reaches out in front of the car, was
clearly shown. A gOod-slzed dog
started angling across the track in
front of the rapidly moving car and
would have been ground under the
wheels, but the motorman let down
the fender at the critical moment and
picked up the bewildered animal In a
manner that caused the onlookers to
laugh outright. The speed of the car
threw the dog up in the air but it fell
back on the fender, bounced again
and alighted outside the course of the
car without a scratch.-Boise Capital
