King SoIomon's Mines.

For half a century the search for
the Biblical gold land of Ophir has
gone on, and modern scholarship, as
represented in the archaeological and
historical researches Of Karl Peters,
has at last settled upon South Africa,
particularly along the Zambesi coun-
try, as the site of the mines whence
Solomon and Hiram secured their pre-
cious metals, says the Washington
Herald. Old ruins, and the remains of
mines discovered in Rhodesia, did
much to settle the claim.
But now there comes a new investi-
gator, DR.. David MacIver who, in his
book, Medieval Rhodesia," declares
that in Rhodesia he finds nothing of
Semetfc Of Egyptian origin. He thinks
the ruined mines in Rhodesia must be
the product of the middle ages. He
declares that in these parts, during the
middle ages, there must have existed
natives of Africa vastly superior in
culture and cultivation to any found
in later times.
This new line of investigation has
been taken up by the Germans. who
support DR.. MaoIvers theory with en-
thusiasm, and think previous investi-
gators all wrong.
The result is that King SoIomon's
mines seem no nearer discovery than
when Rider Haggard wrote fiction
about them.

THE HATPIN,

There's just a minute left to catch the
train they would be on
Her ticket fiutters from her hand and
through crack is gone:
His fingers cannot follow 1.-THE crack
is much too thin
So helplessly he groans-but she brings
forth long hatplu.
A couple coming from the show is
startled by the shout:
Hands up! Your money or your life!
Be quick! Dig up She'll out"
His trusty gun he's left behind, he
must give UP his tin
But at this very juncture she brings
forth long hatp;n.
It is dark and stormy night and late
at that whom he
Discovers they went visiting but left
behind the key:
All he can do is fret and fume and
growl out curses low
But she-O, what's the use Of telling
You already know.
And so for hours one might write on if
there vera any mead,
But this is all such verse that any one
one would care to read.
Yet keep in mind there's hardly any
fix" you might get in
Where Woman couldn't help You with
her true and tried natpin.

THE MERMOUNTAN AND COLORADO cATHoLc OCTOBER s. 1907

was preached there by Irish mission
aries that condition of things is what
would naturally be expected. Sur
mounting a grandiose fountain in the
great square between the station and
the city, is a colossal bronze statue of
the Irish missionary st. Kilian, ar
rayed in the robes of a bishop, with
mitre and staff, browning this splendid
fountain. Within the city itself a Sc
ries of memorials of him and of his
companions-Saints Coleman and Toll
nan-are frequently to be seen, and in
one of the great churches their bodies
are shrined in magnificent tomb. The
people, too, have adopted the names of
these saints, especially of St. Kilian, as
Christian names, and this is common
enough throughout Bavaria. When an
Irishman sees such evidences of the
work achieved by Irish missionaries in
foreign lands, and the honor paid to
them, he is likely to be affected with
pessimism. And the thought is borne
in upon ones mind today that, in all
probability, the warmth Of Christian
devotion and the strength of faith may
be largely attributed to the fact that
the foundations of the faith were laid
in this district, around the wide-fow-
ing Main, by Irish saints. They were
martyred, in the cause of Christianity;
but here, as in so many other lands,
the blood of the martyrs became the
seed of the church. And reading now
of the devotion Of the Wurtzburgers to
the church, and of their devotion to the
see of Peter, as evidenced by the pro-
nouncements of the great Catholic con-
gress just closed, it is but natural to
think that this is derived from the
Irish martyrs who planted here the
faith of St Patrick.

The UNDERGRADUATES.

Jolly good fellows who die for the death
of it,
Fight for the fun of it, live for the
breath of it;
Catch at the instant and drink of the
minute,
Thinking not, caring not what may be
in it;
Foolish good fellows (and all of us
know it,,
Wasting their midnights in being a
poet,
Giving I;,. their lives to the life of hui
Dreaming of fame-that extreme of
insanity;
Silly good fellows who labor for sci
Lighting the way for the races relf-
ance.
Bearing their burdens with mien of a
stole,
Dreaming of gratitude-myth unheroic!
All the good fellows who think not of
wages,
Foreign, in part, to the thing that our
age is,
Giving no heed to the weight of the
Golfer,
Taking what fate and not men have to
offer;
They and the like of them, here's
health to them!
Taint of our lower aims never undo
them!
They will survive us all, passed
through the portal;
Life often jests at what death makes
immortal!

some FAMOUS ATHLETES
OF FORMER DAYS.
Hale and Hearty In Old Age as a Re-
suit of Exercise.

When Elihu Root contributed to the
news Of the hour the other day by
going up to William Muldoon's farm"
at White Plains to be put into better
physical trim by that ''restorer'' of
faded men, he inadvertently paid a
compliment to athletic training and its
benefcent results that might not have
been apparent at a first glance to the
casual reader OF the story of Roots
doings at the farm says the New
York Press.
The man the secretary of state
sought counsel of was no youth in
years, but a well fed hale and hearty
athlete who is just 81 years old, and
who even at that age can outrun, out
ride, outlook and outlaSt generally any
Of the much younger men who come
to him to be restored to physical
health.
Muldoon is only one of many men in
this section of the country who are
living examples Of the benefits of ath-
letic training and the outdoor life
when intelligently pursued the year
round. Few persons would think of
him being an old man, yet so far as
mere years go he is at a time of life
when strenuous physical exercise is not
considered as much of a part of a
mans daily routine. He is nearly a
score Of years older than FitZSimmons.
and yet the latter is usually alluded to
as an "old man" by sporting writer's,
a phrase which shows how soon a man
ages in the estimation Of professional
sport.
Owing to the conspicuous nature of
Muldoon's business, he is thrust into
the light Of publicity more often than
many other athletes Of quite as great
an age. Yet he is no more striking
illustrations Of the benefits of athletics
than are such men as Harry E Beur-
myer, Jim" O'Rourke, Mike" Dono-
van or Professor George Goldie Of
Princeton University.
Harry f. Beurmyer, whose name is
known the length and breadth Of the
land as an amateur athlete of nearly
forty years standing, is quite as re-
markable an illustration of the whole
some benefits Of a life devoted to ath-
letics and outdoor life, as a pastime, as
any one man in this country since Will
liam B. Curtis died.
Beurmyer who lives in Brooklyn is
68 years old, and he goes up to the
New York Athletic club several times

A German Irish Saint

A very important Catholic congress
has just been held in the city of Wurz-
burg, in Bavaria. The people of the
place, as well as those gathered here in
congress, are fervent Catholics, active
in good works. They have sent ad-
dresses of adhesion to the pope, and
have drawn UP plans of action for the
progress of Catholic expansion in the
future They also sent a very loyal
and enthusiastic telegram to the ruler
of the state.
One characteristic of Wurzburg is the
strong faith that prevails in it, and
when it is considered that Christianity

Mr.. John Redmond. NJ. P, paid a
visit to the grave of Isaac Butt before
he left Stranorfar a few days ago. The
grave has been well kept by tender and
devoted care. Butt had his desire full
filled that he should be buried in Irish
soil, and IN the very spot which he him
self had chosen. In this he was more
fortunate than Grattan, who, despite
his strongly-expressed wish to be bu-
ried in the churchyard at Moyanna, in
the Queens county. rests in Westmin-
ter Abbey, within a few PAGES, indeed,
OF Fox and Of Gladstone, but likewise
in close proximity to Castlereagh, the
wrecked Of Grattan's lifework and the
assassin Of the Irish parliament.

a week to swim, box and indulge in
other athletic stunts" at which he
can generally beat the average athletic
youngster. In a long distance tramp
out in the road there are few men who
can survive the long swinging stride
and pace he sets, and at the end of any
of his efforts he never is strained nor
short of breath, for he comes Of
school of training that differs material
ly from the style OF the present day.
Proof of this is furnished by his rec
ord in the years from 1858 to 1873,
when he wan one of the members Of
the New York Athletic clubs cham
pionship team, the virtual champions
of the United States. He made his
championship marks as a Splinter,

the tug-of-war, putting up dumb-bells
and handlifting, a combination Of
powers that is not shown today.

Ro1er-in-ordinary to President
Roosevelt,

There are few men who frequent the
New York clubs gymnasium who can
outlook Mike" or outlast him in any
| form of indoor athletics, and yet Dono-
van is 60 years old if he is a day.
So far as professional sport is con-
cerned, he is the most striking illus
tration of the benefits toward a hearty
old age of persistent and intelligent
devotion to athletic training we have
in this city.
1t is too general assumption that a
lifelong devotion to any one sport is
apt to make a man either one-sided or
to weaken his physique
A. G. Spalding, who now is at least
55 years old, was one of the finest ball
players in the country in 1876 and
1877. Now he is an ardent devotee Of
tennis and golf, at both of which
games he is still among the top
notchers.
George Wright of Boston, who was a
magnificent ball player in the early
'70s, now is a particularly we'll pre-
served man, who does not begin to show
his so years. He is one Of the few
among the older athletes of the coun-
try who have handed the torch down to
the next generation.
The mere mention OF his son, Beals
c. Wright, the tennis champion is
sufficient to show that the name of
Wright is still to be counted on as a
force IN the world of outdoor sports
A lifelong devotion to athletics has
been rewarded amply, both in it's finan-
cial and physical effects, in the in
stances of such men as Professor
George Goldie of Princeton, DR.. Sar-
gent Of Harvard, Charles Couraney of
Cornell, Ellis Ward and DR.. Hitchcock
Of Amherst. Professor Goldie is nearly
70 years old, and as the physical direct
or Of old Nassau he still can go into the
gymnasium and do stunts" with any
freshman.
DR.. Sargent is known as one of the
foremost authorities on physical train
ing in this country, is still an active
man in his work at Cambridge and yet
he is SIS years old.
Courtney's work at Cornell is known
the world over, and although both he
and Ellis Ward are on the verge of
old manhood, so far as years are con-
cerned, no one who has ever seen either
of them directing the crews at work
would ever think of them as anything
but the most active of men,
AS for DR.. Hitchcock, the physical
director at Amherst, there are few men
who can remember when he did not
hold that post, so many years has he |
been there. And yet the doctor is a |
spry and vigorous man in spite of his |
burden of many, many years
