Phases of the National Game.

There are two sides to almost any thing, and the national game is far from being an exception. From the standpoint of the baseball enthusiast "our town has club in the league. From the standpoint of the profession al player the league has club In each city. In the heart of the baseball pa triot our club is band of heroes, going, out to conquer other cities and uphold our honor Ill the mind of the mai; with soul so dead they are stock com panies-properly financed. To the eN- cited partisans at a game each player is an earnest contestant for his side To the man who is from foreign parts it would be an important fact that they are hired men, employees with salaries set by companies that all be long to the same corporation, and that they get their pay for playing and not for winning. To the public it is a game. To the president of the com pany it may be a good or bad per mance."-Century.

Women and Cards.

It seems that the passion for card playing among Jewish women is not of recent date. More than century ago Miss Rebecca Franks wrote:
 "The ladies of Philadelphia have more cleverness in the turn of all eye than those of New York have in their whole composition. With what ease have I seen Chew, Penn, an Os- wald or an Allen and a thousand oh CTS entertain large circle of bot, sexes, the conversation without the aid of cards never Tagging nor seem ing in the least strained or stupid Here Sn New York you enter room with 4 formal set courtesy, and aftei the how-dos things are finished. All is dead calm until the cards are intro duced, when you see pleasure dancing in the eyes of all the matrons, and they seem to gain new ife."-Hebrew Standard.

PreferreS to Die

Sir said the tramp, T have not tasted food for seven days. Another half an hour of fasting and must die!"
 "Then," exclaimed the philanthropist, you shall live Take this ticket. It will admit you in my stead to a sump- tuous banquet. course after course, meats, wines and dessert-a feast three hours long, glorious company-Alr. Talkforhours, MT. Toofew, MT. Long yarn and other eminent men,"
 Will there be any after dinner speeches:" asked the starving one
 Columns of 'em," said the philan- thropist.
 Then the tramp handed back the ticket and crawled wearily away into a silent timber yard to die.-London Globe.

Must Have Loved Him.

Many stories have been told of q Manchester man who is supposed to be the-well. to put it humanely-plainest man in England But we think the fol- lowing Is the funniest:
 Mamma" child was heard to say In an awestruck whisper after pro- longed survey of the peculiar features of the guest, that gentleman's mann ma must have loved children very. very much.'
 "Why so. my dear?" inquired the un- suspecting parent.
 "Oh," returned the child In the same audible whisper, "'cause she brought him up."-Strand Magazine.

The Difference.

"Waiter," protested a commercial traveller, with indignation, "I'm both cred if can ever see any difference between your roast mutton and your roast lamb"
 "Oh, sir,' the waiter rejoined, there is a difference! The roast mutton is q shilling and the roast lamb is one and sixpence." Mail.

The Great Danger.

"What do you consider the chief danger of wealth:' asked the solemn man.
 "That the other fellow will have it, responded a nearer inclined to flip pancy.-Philadelphia Ledger.

A Better Scheme.

'That house have taken from you" said the dissatisfied tenant, "is horr- bly drafty. When am sitting in the middle of the room my hair blows all over my head. Can't you do something for the windows?'
 Don't you think, sir," replied the house agent suavely, "it would be easier and cheaper for you to get your hair utT'-Philadelphia Inquirer.

RETAINING THE PHILIPPINES.
Serious Question whether We Could
Not Make n Better Investment.

From the ONO state journal.
There is quiet talk going on in Congress
sional circles upon the question of the
further retention Of the Philippines. 1t
has arrived at the stage of how TO get rid
Of them, and at the same time realize
somewhat of o,s. honest purpose toward
them. The questions Of protectorate
and of indemnity have been seriously dis
eUsscd on the cloakroom sofas and down
In the lunchroom.
A pr0tcctorate doesn't seem popular. Tt
Is too risky. We are having experience
Of that kind down i'm cuba, and il might
be worse ia the Philippines An indemnity
and two cOaling stations. one for this
country and one in England. has been
discussed. This would tend 10 unite
England with us. in protest against an
assault on the islands. This would have
the effect Of a double prOtectorate and
would do much in putting the FiHpinos
on their good behavior and all the world,
too.
The Philippines have cost this country
hundreds of millions of dollars and thou
sands of lives. and the drain keeps on
and is likely to. If we hold them. for many
years to come. This republic has i'm
proved them some. but it has been at
great cost. There is n serious question
whether We could not have made a better
investment.
tt is a delicate question, for the reten-
tion appeals to sympathy, which is awak-
ened by the patriotic declaration, Where
the American flag is unfurled there it
shall float forever" One likes that kind
of rhetoric. if it doesn't cost too much.
The Washington herald., 1907-02-27
George Washington University.

As Commissioner mcfarland so truly
said at the citizens meeting in the inter-
est of the endowment fund OF George
Washington University, the ease with
which nearly one hundred thousand dol
lars was raised was an answer to the
assertion that the citizens of Washington
lack civic patriotism. So far from that.
it Is probable that no city in the world
has men more appreciative OF the honor
and good name OF their city than this, the
Capital City Of the nation. and one Of the
institutions which is deeply identified with
the Efe the history, and the good name
of the city is George Washington Uni
versity. The list of its graduates in
cludes the names of many of the most
distinguished men OF our land: names
that resound in history and that are re-
membered with honor, and if there is one
need that would stimulate and make &C
tive the patriotism and civic pride of
Washingtonians. it is the need Of this in
stitution.
Something Ike 100000 IS needed by the
George Washington University 50 that It
may increase its usefulness and take its
proper place among the great institutions
OF this city That it viii be raised, 80 one
can doubt Then. with its new site and
the new impetus given TO it by the hearty
