MUST PAY
TEACHERS
Rice Defends Claims
for a Living
Wages.
HCUSE-THIRTIETH DAY.

That the bill to provide for the crea-
ton of pension fund for retired pub
lie school teachers if passed would
provide those who are not in favor Of
raising the pay of the teachers to a
living figure with an argument against
the raise contemplated is the opinion
of Representative Rice, of Kauai who
is an ardent champion of the under
paid pedagogues. In consequence he
opposed the pension bill on its third
having it postponed until after the
appropriations carrying the teachers
increased salaries can be passed. His
contention is that it is much more to
the point to pay the teachers living
salary now than to wait until after
they have grown old in the service and
then pension them.
Long, the chairman of the Educa-
tion committee, who had introduced
the bill into the House, fought hard
for his measure, not so much against
the postponement of the third read
ing as against the evident desires of
some of the members to kill it al
together.
Principal among the attackers of the
bill was Sheldon, who leads the House
in the matter Of freak legislation and
whose particular stunt at present is
hr1r af h. va
porters on the floor and bidding them
do their worst. Yesterday he was not
contented with fighting the pension
bill while it was under discussion but
took advantage of nearly every time
he was on the floor to fling a gibe at
the measure, and he was on the floor
pretty often, so often indeed that Pail
made a hit towards the end of the
session by asking him to confne HIM
self to a reasonable time in what few
other remarks he purposed making.
In considering the vetoes of the
Governor on three Senate bills, the
House put itself on record in a peculiar
way, overriding the veto on one of the
Senate bills after the Senate itself had
sustained the veto. Castro, who made
the motion to override, announced
that he was not going to allow the
vote in any way and hoped that the
other members would feel like he did
in the matter

Morning Session.

Nakaleka broke the business ice In
the House yesterday morning by pre-
senting petition from A. X. Hutehin-
son, of Kalawao, which stated that at
the primaries for the last election he
had been duly nominated as a eandi-
date for deputy sheriff and had put up
his $25 accordingly. Conditions arose
which induced his withdrawal from the
contest but the Secretary of the Ter
ritory would not return the money,
referring him to the House for redress.
The petition was sent to the Finance
committee.

The lamentably bad luck of Pat
Donovan, the former Washing
ton manager, with the Brooklyn
team is causing a lot Of comment
in baseball circles. This is doing
Pat an injustice, for, outside of
Lumley and Jordan, the Brooklyn
team is composed of a most medi-
ocre bunch of talent, and why
ANYBODY should pick the team TO
finish TIP in the race is a mystery.
When Donovan took charge Of
the club last season it looked like
a minor league bunch. Under
Pats skilled handling Lumley and
Jordan developed into stars of the
first magnitude, but two stars are
not enough to put a team in the
first flight. Barring the two big
fellows, Donovan has nothing.
Mccarthy, Maloney, and Casey
are Chicago discards. Chance and
Murphy traded these three men
and some other useless baggage
for Jimmy Sheckard. One star
player is worth whole raft Of
ordinary players. Cantillon could
get a nine of second-raters for
Patten. But this kind OF talent
can't win ball games. The win
ming teams Of both leagues are
composed of high-grade men in
every department of the game
Donovan's troubles are the nat
tEal result of expecting too much
OF a man.

Baseball men predict that
Jimmy Collins will be in control
of the Boston American team
again before long.
Collins has struck his stride,
and is clouting the ball hard. He
started the season high in flesh,
but has managed to work off a big
slice of his surplus avoirdupois in
the last month. and is now re-
ported to be as trim as a grey
hound. This means that he should
soon be playing the same brilliant
fielding game that characterized
his work when he was the king of
third sackers.
When Collins comes into his
own, Bob Unglaub, the present
manager OF the Boston team, will
find himself up against it. Young,
Criger, Dineen, Parent, Tame
hill, Ferris, and the rest of the
Boston veterans are with Collins

SPORT BULLETIN

It looks as If the old baseball
fever is raging in the veins Of
Mike Donlin again. To see the
Giants battling on top has aroused
the former watchman of the cen
Ter field post at the Polo grounds,
and don't be surprised if you see
Mike in uniform before long.
Donlin cut loose a blue streak
of his inirnitable vocabulary in
Chicago the other day when some
one asked him if it was true that
he would appeal to the national
commission for his release from
the New York club. Now, Donlin
has never had such a thought, and
it made his blood boil 10 think
that the New YORK baseball popu-
lace should be led to believe that
he was trying TO get away from
Johnny McGraw.
I am in perfect condition just
now" raved Mike, and would
like to get a three-base welt at the
gent that started this rumor. No,
I'm not going TO quit the Giants.
And YOU can say this for me. Just
now | am doing very well in the
theatrical business. Yes. | am
making lots Of money; but, re-
member, | am a ball player, and
tell my friends that there is not a
day goes by that am not out
practicing. When I play it is
with Callahan's semi-professional
bunch.

Hugh Jennings, the clever
manager Of the Detroit Tigers,
believes in playing the game for
all that is in it. Speaking of the
accident to Ed Walsh in Satur-
days game, Jennings said:
Accidents cannot be avoided.
Schaefer escaped with a terrific
jarring, and has been expectorat-
ing blood ever since.
Fatalities on the ball field are
few and far between. | received
many a terrific knock when play
ing short for the old Baltimore
club while taking throws at sec
ond base. ! tell my men TO play
for results all the time. A PLAYER
running for a sack has no chance
to step aside or slow up. A man
takes just as much chance doing
either as he does going into the
bag at full steam. have known
young players to pull up for fear
of a collision. turn an ankle. and
put themselves out of the game
for the rest of the season, if not
for good.
Few, if any, PLAYERS attempt
to cripple another man, although
I presume there has been cases
where some men retahate on the
ball field for personal grudges.
It's risky business, as the man
who attempts to cripple another
player stands an equal chance of
injuring himself. Baseball is a
strenuous paStine, but not neces-
sarily brutal.
Hard knocks are dealt out oc-
casionally, but the players are
conditioned to stand it, and the fact
that millions Of Americans get
their chief recreation and exercise
playing the game is the best indi-
cation Of the fact that it is here to
stay until something better is in
vented to take its place. .

The New York State League
opened its twelfth consecutive
season last week, with indications
pointing to the most prosperous
year ever experienced by this
compact and thriving organiza-
ton. After several weeks of train
ing the various teams are report
ed to be in excellent condition for
the hard battle for the pennant
that is sure to follow. Managers
of the teams report that they have
secured the best talent possible
for a Class B league, and predict
that the race will be close from
opening to closing Of the season.
Three changes have been made
in the management of the clubs.
Henry Ramsey is the new head of
the Scranton team, champions Of
last year, succeeding Manager
Ashenback, who is now directing
the St. Paul team of the Ameri-
can Association. Charles Dooley,
who has had years Of experience
on the baseball diamond, succeeds
John Lawlor as manager Of the
Utica team. Abe Lezotte, a vet
eran. will pilot the 'Nilkesbarre
club, succeeding Mike Donovan,
who will hold down third base for
the Troy team. NJ. 7. Doherty
will again manage the Albany
team; Howard J. Earl, Amster-
dam, Johnstown, and Glovers-
vile; Robert Drury, Bingham
ton; T. c. Griffin, Syracuse; John
]. O'Brien, Troy.
The league has adopted salary
limit of S2,25o a month, and, &C
cording to John Farrell, president
of the organization, this limit will
be lived up to. Mr.. Farrell, who
is also secretary of the National
Association of Professional Base
ball Leagues, has been its presi-
dent continuously since its incep-
ton.

Peach" OF War Story.
Humor is not associated with the
bloody days Of Kentucky in Revolu-
tionary times. But bit OF fun OF the
grewsome kind is recited by Lynn Tew
Sprague in the Outing Magazine in an
article entitled General Isaac Shelby,
First Governor Of Kentucky" The In
cident follows:
"A patriot soldier of the neighbor-
hood named Culbertson, who subse-
Quently became a captain, was at the
time acting as scout to Shelby's COM
mand, and while gathering informa-
ton before the action he came sudden
~ upon British dragon, far from sup
port, who was eating a peach. Both
were startled by the meeting. and the
Pritisher swallowed the fruit, stone
and all. and reached for his gun. A
shooting match ensued. The Dragon
persisted in the duel and was hastily
buried by the scout in a shallow hole.
Visiting the grave next year, gilbert
son found peach tree growing from
1t, and he boosted Of living to enjoy
fruit rooted in British soil and ferti-
lied by his adversary. The story, we
may add, is Culbertson's very own,

When You Are Bilious.

The only salvation for the person
with torpid liver, according to What
to Eat, is through changed system of
dietectics, combined with exercise In
the outdoor air, calisthenics and deep
breathing. The person with a bad
liver should habitually practice deep
and long breathing, filling the lungs at
each inhalation. The curative dietary
must consist principally Of nerve or
brain food, including fish and a reason
able amount Of beef, with generous
quantities Of cereal foods and the
fruits that are rich in acids. In warm
weather it is best to abstain from
milk altogether. Butter and vegeta-
BILE fats, olive oil. boiled rice, baked
apples, baked potatoes, graham or
whole wheat bread, soft boiled eggs
all constitute safe and nourishing
diet for the bilious person. AT the
first symptom of biliousness squeeze
the juice Of half a lemon in the water
you drink just before breakfast and
before going to bed at night.

1t seemed to Travers that life really
began for him when he came to Lester
to superintend the building of the cleo
trio works, for until then life had been
uneventful, and he had not known Of
Ada Knowlton.
Even now he merely knew of her,
Tor Travers was not q ladies' man. He
was too terribly in earnest to shine In
society, and. though he had been In
Lester for nearly two months, he seem
ed as far from his goal as ever. Every
Sunday he went to church and sat
where he could watch the choir where
Ada sang, the stained glass forming a
background for the shapely golden
head. The Rev. Josiah Rumford watch
ed approvingly the expression Of rapt
interest that was upon Travers' face
all through the sermon. He could not
notice that the keen blue eyes of the
young contractor were upon the choir
rather than upon the pulpit, and he
felt gratifed that he should hold his
auditor 80 well
So 1t happened that the Rev. Josiah
stopped at the new factory one morn
ing and extended an invitation to
Travers to join a church picnic the
following week.
1T is almost a family affair" he ex-
planned as Jimmie's hand went down
into his trousers pocket. II am not

ton and only for the members Of the
Sunday school, but thought that per-
haps you might like to meet some of
the young people and get acquainted"
Jimmy beamed upon the kindly old
man as he thought Of Ada Knowlton
and accepted the Invitation with an eff
fusiveness that caused the minister to
wonder at certain comments he had
heard regarding the unsociability of
the newcomer.
HE is most cordial" he told his
wife. II am sure that he needs only
to get acquainted to be decided addi-
ton to our little society. l am sorry
that did not look him up earlier
