JAPANESE TEMPERANCE LESSON.

There is more sound temperance ar
gument in the result Of the drastic
measures against alcoholic beverages in
the japanese army during the war by
which the percentage Of deaths was but
1 per cent and the health record of the
army unsurpassed than in all the tenn
perance literature OF the western world.
General Kurokl. who is now visiting in
America, sent out. the order that any
man found drunk while on duty would
be shot TO death, and IL is needless to
say that there was no drunkenness in
ms division There is a Spartan sim
phcity about the japanese method of
making good soldiers that IS wholly
effective.-Albany Argus.

HARDEST WOOD KNOWN.

Recent official tests OF the many vaiu-
able hard woods native of western Aus
tralia have made known the extraor-
binary properties of yate, believed to be
the strongest Of all known woods rs
average tensile strength is 24.OOO pounds
10 the square inch. equaling that OF
good castiron. But many specimens art.
much stronger, and one was tested up
10 seventeen and one-half ions to the
square inch, which is equal to the ten
sile strength of wrought iron. The sawn
timber of yate is probably the strongest
in the world. The tree grows to maxi
mum height OF 100 feet and has some
times a diameter OF two and a nalf or
even three feet.-Youth's Companion.

BIRDS STILL THE FASTEST.

1t puts a keener edge on the pursuit
of the perfect flying mechanism, the
long-sought aeroplane, the steering bal
loon, gas engine driven, to realize that
homing pigeons have covered 300 miles
at the average speed OF sixty-thrse miles
an hour and 400 miles at fifty-eight miles
an hour For one hundred miles the bird
record is more than eighty-five miles
an hour. which is far beyond the best
automobile record and ahead of any
railroad performance. Naturalists think
that some of the big sea birds can beat
the best homing pigeons easily. There
are students of ORTHODOXY who claim
that frigate birds can average one hun
dred miles an hour for a long time.
Certainly some gulls play with mile-a-
minute speed when they are in a hurry.

Professional Rowdyism.

''In 1871 I was instrumental in divid-
ing the baseball fraternity into two
classes, amateur and professional. by
assisting in the organization Of the
first National Association of Profess
sionaI Ball Players, which, in 1876. gave
way 10 the present National League.
You ask my opinion as to why it is
that our national game, in its profess
sional department. has been, and still
is. disgraced by a degree OF 'rowdyism'
foreign to the character of the game it
self. and costly to the magnates of the
clubs in the loss of patronage of the
grand stands which it leads to; besides
being a heavy handicap to the efforts
made to sustain the high reputation of
the existing system Of Organized pro-
fessional baseball, by the rulers OF the
'Neuonal,' and American baseball
leagues, and by those of the ma
jority government of the National
Association of Professional Baseball
Leagues

of the 7Os. when that curse of all field

with the evil in question until l drove
every crook OF the period out of the
professional fraternity. and then it was
that the baseball business began to earn
the splendid reputation it now possesses
OF being the most honestly conducted
sport or game there is in vogue. in which
professional exemplars take part But
of late years an abuse has been allowed
TO grow up in the professional baseball

evil of downright crookedness; and that
is the kicking evil, viz. the disputing of
the decisions Of the umpires in the game.
''Kiokers" and Blackguards.
During the past decade this democrat

The House of Chadwick has had two
titled members in recent years-Sir Ed
win, famous in his day as a sanitary
engineer. who lived to be ninety-three
and received a X. c. b. from Queen
Victoria in recognition of his services;
and Henry. his younger brother, known
wherever baseball is played as the
Father Of the Game, who reckons his
age at eighty-three. To be eighty-three
is something but Father Chadwick
doesn't look It. Like Peter Pan. he won't
grow up, and, despite his years. his at
titude toward the things he loves has
all the buoyancy Of youth. To see him
at his best in point of youthfulness. you
must see. him at the ball park. where he
is sure 10 be conspicuous by reason Of
his commanding figure and long gray
beard, and because OF the attention he
receives from the players and officials.
There his enthusiasm is contagious. He
still is. as he has been for twenty-six
years, editor OF the official Baseball
Guide. and is. besides. the recognized
American authority on cricket.
Cricket in New York
- When I was a schoolboy in Brooklyn
in 1887" says The Father of the Game,
the only prominent field sports in
vogue were horseracing and the old
English game Of cricket; the latter a
game which had been played in New
York city since the middle of the
previous century-it being on record that
a cricket match was played on field
near what is now Fulton Market as
early at 175l Running races were the
feature at the old Union racecourse near
Jamaica. and trotting matches at the
CenteTville course.
Though a form of baseball was
played by the old Olympic TownbaH
Club as early as 1881. the first regular
baseball club was not organized until
1916. aud that was the Knickerbocker
Club. which still chung to a form Of
townball. Our national game, as II is
now played. dates its existence no
farther back than 1857, the year of the
organization Of the first National Asso-
citation Of Baseball Players. 1 may add
that, up TO the decade of the sixties,
baseball was played entirely by ANA
teurs. all professionalism In the game
being barred by the old National Asso-
ci2tion rules. In 1865 the first profess
SIGNAL baseball team was organized IN
Cincinnati. and a team OF regular sala-
RED players took the field. the club in
question being known as the Red Stock
ings.
