"a scholastic standing requirement,

"a scholastic standing requirement,
for all athletics.
y This should be the one rule to gov
ern who and who shall not play. If
the: freshman athlete can play football,
baseball or work on the track team,
and keep up in his studies that should
end it. It will catch the ringers just
as effectively, as the ringer is usually
a bone-headed individual who could
not keep up with any class. 1t would
weed his kind out in hurry. 1t
would also open up athletics for fresh
men who can keep up in their studies
and play on the teams.
Just SO long as the rulemakers meet
annually and pile Ossa upon Pelion in
the way of adding new heights of eli
gibility for athletes to climb just SO
long will there be clever evasion and
deceit. If the scholastic requirement
alone is used it puts the deceit out of
the hands Of the athletes and into the
hands of the various faculties. 1t will
do away with the charge that athlet-
les are distracting and will put the
academic profs in a position where
their every complaint is answered. IT
will mean more brains and less of
sheer Drawn in athletics. 1t will take
a chap with some balance and ability
to carry athletics and keep up with
classes. .r...

The Boston National league club
was not sold to newcomers at the last
report, altho several parties managed
to get a little advertising out Of the
old club. Finding that the owners
would take nothing less than $275, 900
for the plant and club, several parties
offered much less to get turned down,
just as they fully expected. Had the
owners accepted the offers made the
chances are three to one that there
would be nothing doing. @
A theatrical show hit the town last
week and got a few press notices out
of the club by having the star open
negotiations with President Soden,
who nibbled and gave the actor man a
chance for popular notices. The story
was that fifty actors would put up
S., 1000 each and make up a pool to buy
the club. Old man Conant scratched
his head when he heard Of the offer
Fifty real actors around with So 200

umvire, for only the syndicate man

A small army of people would like
to get the club if the owners would

Boston, Jan. 27.-Over-feeding kills
off more ballplayers than accidents or
hard work on the ball-feld. The
Fletcher system should be taken up by
the veteran ballplayers without delay.
In fact. the rules of eating should be
laid down by the management of every
club.
The late Harry Wright was about
:; watch over the players during meal
time, and constantly insisted that they
indulge lightly before dressing for
an afternoon on the ball-feld.
"Just a plate of soup. That's plen-
-. ty,' would be Mr.. Wright g cry as the
iplayers filed into the dining-room for
lunch. The greatest athletic perform
tances on the field have been accom-
plished On practically empty stomachs.
AS the players grow older they sleep
sup and fail to show enthusiasm over
:. the early training until their ball play
ing is affected and the fans soon size
up the trouble. When the hot weather
comes and the players fall to drinking
!: beer too freely it s plain to see them
! slow up and cause them to grow dis
! +gusted. when they, have any leather
; chasing to perform.

Some players naturally will keep
thin under all circumstances, but the
imajority will take on flesh as they grow
elder and, finding it a tough job to re-
duce weight in the spring, will soon
. become marks for trades to minor
league club. Then it IS two to one the
# same players will wake up and work
g like sailors to get into shape for the
: purpose of getting back into fast COM
tpany when it's too late. The two big
leagues are full of just such, players

= I have known of least half a dozen
. good ballplayers being passed up in
Boston on account OF paying no heed
to the managers advice about over
loading their stomachs. Frank Selee
! was just as much of a stickler in this
line as was Harry Wright, and both

I managers. The manager who does not
pay especial attention to this end of
the players life must lose out, for his
team will be unable to, keep up fast

AS TO.RAcE SUICIDE"

The com mon view is that
fecundity is quality of first i'm.
portance to the race, and that q
decrease in fecuLdity is neces-
sarily an evil. This view is
based on theory of man as a
collection of separate animals,
with his maintenance and i'm
proyement dependent most on
animal reproduction; and is as
incorrect as its foundation.
Humanity lives ia a species of
animal, and that animal must be
replenished like any other; but
the maintenance and improve
ment of a civilized race depends
lar more on quality than on
quantity; and on social gains
than on physical. This IL readi-

BARN AND CONTENTS BURN

On Monday night the heavens
east OF town were Illuminated
and the reflection Of a fire as il
shown against the black clouds
was noticed by many people.
1t was Peter Knudson's barn
which burned with nearly all
its contents. MIR. Knudson was
in town on Tuesday and told us
the story of his misfortune:
The fire Started FROM a
lantern. Mr. Knudson was
doug his chorse and hung the
lantern on its usual hook IN the
barn and went short distance
for basket of corn. He was
not absent longer than three
minutes and upon his return
discovered smoke and fire coming
from the barn door. He gave
the alarm to his wife and went
in and with his pocket knife cut
the halter straps on three of his
horses and in the excitement
dropped his knife and after d
time succeeded in getting his
fourth horse united. He manag-
ed to get out of the barn but
was considerably overcome by
smoke. Mrs. Knndsou tried 10
drive the cows out of the ad.
joining shed but she was only
able to get one out and the
other three burned. Every
thing was consumed To ashes
in a very short time.
800 bushels of curn. three
cows, and all of the farm ma
chinery except caltivator,
were consumed. The loss is
estimated at $1,000. The barn
was owned by Geo. James, who
