The Impression at COlumbiA Ia that the
other teams will gain in strength because Of
the abolition OF football. The men who would
come out for this sport can be used In other
lines, Il is expected. The training In football
has been a drawback to some OF the men who
wished TO take part In other games. Their
time was 20 much taken Mp In the fall that
their college work suffered and they we're In
many cases unable to get out In the spring
because Of conditions.
The greatest hopes are entertained by the
track team. To III up the gap In the fall
work Capt. Brodix plans q series Of fall COM
petitions OF all sorts, with pri1ss to be given to
induce the men to compete, Aside from that

plan is on a larger scale than ever before and

A SNOWMAN IN AFRICA.
Natives on the west Coast Entertained By
IN Enterprising Belgian.

Mr.. lie Boutillier In q Belgian Snowman
who works the West African circuit. He
got the idea while clerking for a rubber and
palm oil trading company.
II seemed 10 him hat there would be
money in catering Il the African craving
for amusement. His wages were only $50
francs a month, but he was sure that hts
modest savings would finance the UNDER
taking. So he launched II two years ago,
aud lie Boutillier In the whole enterprise
for he has had no temptatiOn to reorganize on
a syndicate basis.
He has a tent in which about $50 natives
may find seating Accommodations o the
ground. His only white assistant stands at
the tent ZAP and gives admittance to any
one who has copper coins or a bit Of silver + o
the value Of about 8 cents. Cowrie shells
and native produce are not legal tender,
and the range OF lie BoutiIlier's educational
and moral show Is thus confined to those
parts of the coast regions between Dnkar
and Lagos where coins are current.
The entertainment IL entirely pictorial
and musical. The mainstay il q large
se-ies Of stereopticon views thrown on q
screen by kerosene illumination.
Some Of them are comic pictures Of q kind
10 apreal 10 the native senss OF the ridici-
LOUIS. but the most are scenes from life In
European countries, such as cities and ham,
let's, shipping In the harbors, the domestic
animals, farm laborers in the fields, crowds

story to tell about all his serious rictures.

for Ie Boutillier talks all three. Some OF
the information conveyed through these
native mediums Is probably OF Q wonderful
aort. but the Snowman insistR that the pic
lures and lecture combine edilcntion with
entertainment in a high degree.
The ~stAreopticon views are divided INTO
sections by the musical performance which
Ia evoked from a number Of music boxes

this town, the fats remain to large extent
as they were. They are being remodelled
gradually and while the Transformation
there is slow it ia bound to be sure. From
Fifty-ninth street to Warrington Heights
and beyond the new flats are going up with
the attachments Of luxury that are %
regarded as neceesities.
For the very rich there are the high riced
apartments on Riverside Drive and Central
Park West and upper Broadway. The
cross streets and the lofty places Of the
upper Harlem district provide the situations
for the more moderate priced houses, with
conveniences practically equal to those
that the very expensive places provide.
Down in the valleys the ordinary apartment
house IL found, the n with very moderate
rents but with all necessary conveniences,
sven IL there are many stories to be climbed
for those who dwell near the top.
There are no more rookeries to he found
anywhere and the result Is that New York,
considering it's climate, taking into account
its peculiar geographical conformation, its
means Of transit, is one Of the most COM
fortably housed places in the world, with
the rents not greatly in excess OF what they
should be and with no place in the world
Offering 80 much for the rent paid.
Real estate experts look for still cheaper
rents In the next five years. Transit faoili-
ties are making 1t possible for the persons
Of moderate means to live in other bOruughs
Than Manhattan and reach their places Of
DuBlneSH IN the OlO OlJy III u FcdSOfldDle Time.
It viii probably be ten years before ade-
quate transit facilities are provided for the
The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten
Island. Year by year more people are
moving to what might be called the suburbs
inside the city and the movement is bound
TO increase for one most potent reason.
Commercial life Ia Manhattan Is increasing
40 rapidly that II is' only n question OF time
when il will demand a large part Of the
town ND TO Fifty-ninth street. or course
the great hotels, the large apartment houses
will remein, but wheu the march OF com
meroe demands Il the other buildings. will
have to go, Just as they nave disappeared
except in spots, below Twenty-third street.
The newer apartments Of the upper West
Side are bound to remain for many, many
years and the increase In comforts will
continue, so ~ to Offset the migration to
the other borOl;chs that is likely to increase
az the transit facilities increase. TIL out
look therefore for the fat dweller, whether
he Is the p~retentious or the moderate kind
Of a man, Is n Of attraction. He will
continue to I've in comparative luxury. and
u il the opinion Of real estate experts that
the limit Of high rents has been reached for
a good many years.
SO the annual hun begins this coming
week. There are more desirable apart
nents to be found than ever before. One
doesn't nave to seek far in the hunt. The
advertiseme uts in the newspapers are a
satisfactory guide. Every taste can be
satisfied. There will be no difficulty for
every man TO find what he wants in the
dwelling house line.

his rent money, even II 1t Is a little higher
than the economists say he should spend
rightfully.
II Ia less han FIVE years since the man
died who Transformed one OF The ugly old
brownstone front dwellings and made
the FIRST fiat in this city. Up TO twenty
years ago the average apartment house,
call them nements or fats az you please,
was OF the cold water variety. II you
wanted hot water you bad to heat it your
self. You had to burn your own coal in
yonr kitchen range. You had one or more
dark TO rms. Sometimes the Railways were
unlighted save on the ground floor. Rarely
were the Railways kept In good condition.
Sanitary dangers lurked In the entire build
ing. The apartments for people OF moder-
ate means were only a slight degree re-
moved in comfort from he old tenement
house.
Then came the new laws OF the Tenement
House Commission. The result II that the
| old time type Of fats Ia no longer being
built. Now every family il assured Of
plenty of light, plenty Of fresh dir. Dark
inside rooms are a thing OF the past and
the buildings are healthful.
Rents now run from about 50 to sI3 a
month q room for the great masses Of the
people. IL seems pretty stiff, but what
do they get7 Take an upper West Side
apartment house, for example, one with
an elevator, a seven story building. You
can get apartments OF from five to eight
