was not worth living.

who achieved Worldwide fame By
his defense of Port Arthur against the

to seek financial aid from well-known

report was refused at the office of the

THE SIMPLE LITE.

Discussing the discussed theme in many phases the Charleston News and Courier says most frequent mis- take in the quest after the simple life is that it can be attained by attention to eXternals alone, forgetting that lives often that approach an ideal of sim plicity are lived in palaces. The News and Courier thinks that whatever the complication of social and other sur roundings which often can not be al- tered one should strive for candor and simplicity in all that concerns the in ward life Having, it is to be hoped an unwavering faith in one's spiritual welfare, it continues:
 Then it should be our constant eff fort to free our minds from the slight est duplicity or pretense in our deal ings with our fellow beings; not cher ishing petty distrust of their sincerity in their intercourse with us. If we meet others with frankness and sim cerity, and with a feeling of interest in what concerns them and of sympathy in their troubles, we shall seldom find lIldl lHCli lOA uo IS HOl SHn- uine, or that we have been mistaken in the confidence we repose in them. There is a wonderful amount of real goodness and kindness in the world if we only take the trouble to look for it. and the exception is when we find any human being who is, s,entirely de- void of it, no matter how harshly and bitterly they may express themselves Sometimes the trials and disappoint- ments through which one has passed have made one take so warped view of life that one can not see the best side of any action or of any character but under all the carping and fault finding there is always enough heart left to be touched by kindness and sympathy.

Trenton Almost Springs Surprise On
 New Haven Bowlers.

On Wednesday evening at Johnson's academy the opening game of the In terstate league will be played between the New Haven team and. the Trenton aggregation.
 This announcement will come as a surprise to the bowling enthusiasts of this city in that it is in itself sur prise to the bowlers themselves. It was thought that the league did not open until December, but 1t was learned yesterday accidentally that this is un- true Billie Ford went down to New York to show his new score book and went into the New York alleys. Here he saw notice of the opening of the Interstate league. He asked of the proprietor when does New Haven play. The answer was Wednesday evening. Billie did not faint, but just rolled to the telephone and announced these un- expected tidings to Charlie Johnson Since the call Charlie has been hust- ling around looking up the team which is to be picked from the following men: Morgan, E. Swift, George Col lett, G. Weber, Frank Beeeher, c. Johnson and Janswick.
 This team is a good one, but they have not practiced together The In- terstate league is the biggest league in the country and the interest in 1t is almost world wide.
 The game tomorrow night will start at 8 o'clock The State league bowlers will go to Hartford tonight.
