The place assigned athletics in the
Naval Academy routine is something
entire unique, play ing part as it
does in one of the most important
phases of academic life. The right to
carry the colors marks the company
rceiving it as being the most efficient
in the qualities which go 10 make up
a naval officer. and in this the differ
ent branches of athletics have almost
as much weight as the purely profes
sional branches The infantry and
artillery drills, small and great gun
practice, seamansnip and the other
practical exercises are all assigned
large coefficients in this system of
marking, but so are football, baseball.
fencing, rowing, etc. Gymnastics.
boxing, wrestling and such lines are
also given due weight and these marks
are being determined by the contests
now going on.

proposition has been made by the
baseball management of the Naval
Academy to that of West Point that
three games be played at the Naval
Academy this season instead of the
one contest which has heretofore set
tied the baseball houors for the year.
West Point has sent no reply as yet,
but it is known that the matter is be-
ing considered there with some favor,
because St Johns wrote for a game
on the Friday before the game with
the midshipmen and we're told by the
military cadets that the game with
the midshipmen was being considered.
Ii the three games are settled upon
the first will be played on the after
noon of Friday, May 20, and the sec
ond ON Saturday morning If each
team has won one game, the third will
be played on Saturday afternoon.
The scheme has in its favor that the
better team is more likely to be the
one to win a series of games, whereas
sometimes the inferior aggregation
gets the jump on the stronger and
manages 70 get the single contest.

During the week it has been settled
that the Academy and st. Johns
will meet in three regularly scheduled
games-on March 2S and May 10 and
II. The first date was made possible
by the cancellation of the game be-
tween the Navy and Gallaudet College
by the latter, the second date is the
regularly scheduled game and the
third is an extra date which has been
selected While, of course, St Johns
cannot expect to rank with the mid
shipmen in all lines Of athletics, yet
for sevreal years they have had teams
which gave the Navy the hardest kind
of time TO win.

The United States has now aoouts S4.-

from being Americanized. There Is room
for serious reflection as to the conse-
auences OF adding over q million aliens
yearly to the unamalgamated mass
q An unequally distributed immigration
of such magnitude as the present. must
have political consequences which per-

New York, 20 per cent. In Penlsyl yante,
Il per cent. each In Illinois and Massa-
