GOSSIP.

An interesting visitor at the Yale
club of New York recently was Harold
Pape of England, who is widely known
on the other side of the Atlantic as q
steeplechaser, amateur horseman, and
gentleman rider. He w&s one of a
party of English gentlemen accom-
panying Lord Turnour, whO arrived
here on the Baltic. They were enter
tanned by Brinton Buckwalter of the
Yale club, where they will remain
Tor few days prior to going to Mexi-
CO. Mr.. Pape taleed entertainingly Of
steeplechasing on this and the other
side, and spoke enthusiastically of the
proposed international horse show to
be held in London in June, in which
Americans are to take prominent
part. While as far as am personal
ly concerned l have never gone in ex-
tensively for horse shows, l have the
sportsman's and the horseman's in
tereSt in them. Racing is my game,
but l come into contact with those
who are promoting the show at Olym-
pia, and can say that they are Nigh.
ty keen for the International show.
There is no doubt that it will be of i'm
mense benefit to sport on both sides of
the water, for l do not doubt that you
have as much to learn from us as we
certainly have from you Certainly
international events of the kind are
sure to be beneficial. The reason,
no doubt, that 1 take no personal part
in showing horses is that hunters and
steeplechasers in which I am keen
ly interested have so small a part in
the show ring. 1t seems to me the
competitions held on these lines are
mighty poorly conducted in England,
and I hope we can improve them by
contact with your methods. After all,
though, racing is the real sport of
horse interest. In steeplechasing and
hunting meetings we have never had
a better year than last year. Both
classes of contests have been i'm
mensely popular, and 1 think are
growing more SO every season.

Jay Gould, the 17-year-old son OF
George j. Gould, has outstripped all
other court tennis players of his age.
He is phenomenon at the game.
Gould is the amateur champion of
America, and has gained international
distinction in the game by taking sec
ond prize in the contest for the BRIT
ish amateur championship. Young
Gould presents remarkable contrast
to the usual run Of rich mems sons.
He is just a healthy, clean minded
American boy, who has had more adj
vantages, perhaps, than the average
American boy. He is stepping into
manhood unspoiled by luxurious sur
roundings. To Frank Forester, pro-
fessional at Georgianccurt, belongs the
credit of having developed this new
star in the tennis world. Jay was an
Indifferent player when Worcester took
hold of him. His progress under For
rester's tutelage has been marvellous.
Within a period of four months last
year young Gould passed from novice
to amateur champion. He is now re-
nowned throughout the court tennis

Being so well pleased with Canada
We wish my father and brother to

reading matter on Canada.
We have been here nearly a year
and are delighted with this country.
We have lived in Illinois, Iowa, and

bright sunshine all winter so far, only

HE WAS TARIN1 A BATH.-Sidney
Dallas of Melborne told a. group Of
reporters in fremont temple, Boston,
this temperance story: "A Melbourne
husband stayed out till about a. m.
This man, when he got home, thought
that he would go boldly to the bath
room and take a bath. That would re-
move from his wife's mind any suspi-
cion as to his condition. 1t would
show her, in a word, that he was all
right. So he undressed, filled the tub
and plunged in. Hot and enfevered as
he was, he enjoyed the bath. AS he
splashed, and scrubbed and puffed, he
heard a slight noise. and, looking up
saw his wife in the doorway. His wife
was regarding him with an expression
of unspeakable contempt. He was
rather amazed at that. But he said
nothing. He lowered his head and
went on scrubbing. We'll, what are
you doing?' she asked. Can't you see
what Pm doing?' he answered. He
rubbed on some more lather. I'm
taking a bath She shifted and said
as she turned to go: Why don't you
take off your underclothes, then?"

SIZING UP PEoPLE.
An Essential Quality of a Successful
Man.

An Essential Quality of Successful
Man.
The art of all arts for the leader Is
the ability to measure men, to weigh
them, to "sizs them up." to estimate
their possibilities, to place them so as
to call out their strength and elimi-
mate their weakness.
This Is the epitaph which Andrew
Carnegie has chosen for himself.
Here lies a man who knew how to
get around him men much cleverer
than himself" People wonder how a
Morgan, a Hartman, q Ryan, a Wan
amaker can carry on such prodigious
enterprises. The secret lies in their
ability to project themselves through
a mighty system by being able to
choose men who will fit the places they
are put in, men who can carry out
their employers programme to the
letter. Men who are capable Of sue
ceeding in large way are shrewd
enough to know that they do not
know 1t ALL" shrewd enough. to en-
ploy men who are strong where they
are weak, to surround themselves with
men who have the ability which they
lack, who can supplement their weak
ness and shortcomings with strength
and ability. Thus, in their combined
power, they make an effective force.
The trouble is that many men, be-
cause Of their inability to read human
nature, duplicate their own weakness
es in their employees, thus multiply
ing their chances Of failure. The lead
er must not only be good judge of
others, but he must also be able to
read himself, to take an inventory OF
his own strong points and weak points.
Men have often been elected to high
office or to fill very important positions
at the head Of great concerns because
of their recognized ability, who have
disappointed the expectations Of those
who placed their hopes in them, SIM
ply because they could not read peo-
pie. They may have been we'll educa-
ted, we'll posted, strong Intellectually,
may have had a great deal of general
ability; but they lacked the skill to
read men, to measure them, to weigh
them, to place them where they be-
longed-Success Magazine.

back Of the town. However, at its

had its origin in the walls that surround
a valley known from many little
streams that pour down, as Silver Bow
basin. This basin is the scene Of min
ing activity, including hydraulic op-
erations. The stream has created quite
a delta, which has spread and extend
ed, almost uniting the main land with
Douglas island.

have board sidewalks with plank road
way between. Down their slopes the
finest coasting Is afforded when snow
covers them in winter The moonlight
coasting Is one Of the winter delights

that the moon does not, like the sun,
get low on the horizon, and as a con-
