Men of the present day are living at
n greater tension than those of any
other period Of the worlds history.
THIS, of necessity, demands great
haste. which is the natural enemy of
politeness. It logically follows that IN
an highly civilized countries, especi-
ally in the United States. the strict
rules of courtesy and etiquette which
were enforced by our grandparents are
steadily falling into disuse, particular
ly in business life.
The manners OF the present day
have. despite a great deal that may
be said AGAINST them, a certain merit
THAT is all their own, the merit of
franlfness and honesty. which have
taken the place of the show and de-
ception which characterized the
customs of former times. They suit
the first part of the twentieth century
much better than if we masqueraded
i'm the elaborate manners of our an
cestors. who were more sentimental,
more given to idealizing than we are.
and whose etiquette was not influenced
by the constant necessity of rushing
past great crowds of people 10 catch
trains. The theory that formality is
necessary to good breeding is slowly
but surely. dying out. Our -directness
ofmanner may be impolite. but it mas
this advantage: You know on what
ground you are standing. t
One very noticeable change of eti-
quette is in the form OF address. II
is no longer considered necessary or
even the right thing to say, Yes,
Madam or. mo. Sir" The simple
YES or mo" certainly sounds a little
startling IN the mouths Of small chill
dren when addressed to their elders.
but it is a pity to bring up children
to use forms of expression that are
fast becoming obsolete, and if from
earliest infancy a child is trained to
speak thus, there seems to be no dis
respect to age in doing so. After all.
81" Is only short for "sire," a title
savoring strongly of monarchies. and
madame" or my lady" is hardly
more desirable in these .days when the
word lady" has been So abused that
those who perhaps have the best claim
tosl use it but little. preferring the
broader term.
another custom in which we have
improved on the ways OF our fore
fathers IS that Of allowing each person
TO pay for himself. whether in public
conveyances or at the theatre AMI
other places Of amusement In this
case especially. the formality IS dis
appearing and frankness is steadily

HATS DOUBLE IN

Tailormade gowns offer endless var
iety and are so smart and vet so SIM

last reached perfection. not only in
plain tailormades but in those for
dressy wear Indeed, I should say the
latter was more easily found. No

there are styles for all, and dresses

WOMANIKIIVD
By S. LLOYD Franklin.

taking its place. The theory that a
lady should never be allowed to pay
anything for herself even in a street
car. is certainly passing out Of favor;
q gentleman should offer to pay for
lady on such occasions. but he should
not insist upon doing so. 1t is no
longer good form" for two persons to
vie with each other in politeness.
It is often said that the girls and
women in our cities are not treated
with the respect shown to them in time
past; that we, as boys and men, are
not ready TO give a lady our seat. or
to speak to her in a courteous manner.
This. like many other points of etl-
uuette. is influenced by the time in
which we live. To-day there are more
business and educational opportunities
offered to women than ever before. and
so they are coming more and more
TO be on a par in business life with
their husbands. sons and brothers.
Therefore the men have come to look
upon them less as the weaker sex, %
and more as their equals, as persons
not needing attention as much as
formerly. For this reason they ne
glect MANY small courtesies, the omls-
sion of which years ago, would have
been an inexcusable hlunder.
Manv more instances might be cited
which would show the change. or. we
might. say. the evolution in the realm
Of courtesy and etiquette but, when
all has been said on this subject, we
come to the conclusion that the change
has reallv been brought about by a
growing instinct in the man of to-day
to attend strictly to his own business
and all that tends toward his wealth
and happiness. and to have little or
no concern for what is going on
around him. At the same time there
is innate in every gentleman the incli-
nation to treat all women with re-
sDect and courtesy either in the busi-
ness world or in everyday life. ard
while the stateliness is lost the true
courteous feeling does and always viii
remain in the heart Of every real
gentleman.

Youngstown, Ohio. Dec. S.-Jimmv Nc
Aleer thinks he got all the best OF the
recent trades pulled of by him. despite
the opposite opinion held by critics all
over the American League circuit. Nc
Aleer secured Ferris. Williams. and Hof-
man in exchange for Glade, Niles. and
HemphII.
It is the intention Of McAleer to use
Jimmy Williams at third. Wallace at
short. and Ferris at second Tom Jones
Will play first unless better man can
be secured. Jones is none too popular in
st. Louis. and McAleer would like tc
start next season with a new face at

Boston Americans. are possibilities. 1t is
more probable that some deal will be
fixed up with Detroit whereby St. Louis
will acquire the services of Charley Carr.
The work OF Carr in the American Asso-
citation last season makes him look like
the best man for first base.
When asked what he thought about tie
poor opinion most of the sporting writer's
held about his trade. McAleer remarked:
Unless l thought / was getting the

the trades through
While it is generally believed that Nc

thinks this end OF the deal a stand

his favor McAleer always has, and still
believes. that Ferris is one Of the great

He regards him better now than Niles

never be the same player he was before

Thus he figures st. Louis has all the

worth many times. In exchange he loses
Fred Glade, one OF the best pitchers in
the league. Glade. however. is a bad as

is liable to quit the game for good at

SUMMER BASEBALL DOOMED.
IntercOiieg giHte Association VIII At
tempt to XIII Practice.

New York. Dec. s-The plan for the
coming meeting of the Intercollegiate Ath-
letic Association of the United States has
been formulated by the executive COM
mittee of the association and announced
by President Palmer E. Pierce and Sec
retary Louis Bevier. jr.. in q letter to the
various colleges throughout the country.
The particular object Of the coming con-
vention. aside from the work already be-
gun. will be to settle the question of sum
mer baseball. The pernicious influence OF
summer baseball has, perhaps. been
longer felt than the evils OF football.
which called for such drastic reforms two
years ago. and ii Is expected that the
campaign 81 the association against the
summer playing will be as successful as
the football reforms. for which 1t was
largely responsible.
The executive committee of the asso-
citation has made extended investigations
relative to summer ball playing covering
all OF the past year. Data has been col
lected TO show its prevalence. and the
methods employed and suggested for its
control. The success of these methods in
particular institutions has been examined
and the committee has formulated what
1t believes will be a means to absolutely
end the practice. If IL can accomplish
this work it viii do great and lasting
service TO college sports.
The executive committee will oepn the
convention with its meeting on Friday.
December q. and the formal convention
VIII be called on Saturday morning The
baseball question will be called up at the
afternoon session on Saturday, when the
proposed measures for its suppression
Will be acted upon. There will be other
reforms suggested at the same time.

players Of Cleveland in consequence OF

He writes as follows: You viii prob

States cruiser Tennessee. We had the
game scheduled for last Saturday. and
every American and Englishman in Rio

they insisted on another game Sunday.

Gamcness Questioned.
Opinions will vary as TO who VIII be the
winner when Burns and johnson come to-
gether in the ring The question OF clever
ness can be set aside, as il is in john
sons favor by large margin. In hitting
powers. the colored man would probably
have the advantage. as he hits straight.
and the straight punch win win in the ma
jority OF cases. Il is likely that the con-
test will narrow itself down 10 a case Of
.aggressiveness, endurance. and gameness-
Burns will probably be the favorite as
far as the first point is concerned. In
the question Of endurance, il Is open 10
argument as TO who can stand the most.
not only from his own exertiOns. but also
from the punishment received from the
other man.
Now as 20 the willingness 10 take pun
shment, most betting men would favor
the white man. Burns early career as
an athlete has not only showed that he
was daring and game, but his experience
as a lacrosse player has served 20 de-
velOp that spirit No man who is a
Weakling or a coward viii continue long
as a lacrosse player. The game IS a
rough and many times brutal one, and
no man who is afraid Of a bump or a
punch or a crack from one Of the heavy
sticks used in playing lacrosse viii ever
remain long as a member OF a lacrosse
team. Burns career in the ring has
shown that he can and will take i Cruel
