NO PLACE FOR A BULLDOG.
A Man of Peace Doesn't Want One ii
 His Front Yard.

Man of Peace Doesn't Want One in
 His Front Yard.
 Rev. Dr. w. H. Faunce, president of Brown university, in an address at the Mohawk Arbitration conference, spoke in part as follows;
 The athletic field is, perhaps, the clearest expression of the temper and genius and character of the school or the college; there it comes right to the front. It is a student enterprise man. aged by the students, and expresses most clearly their attitude and tone and temper, but they are accustomed in every one of those contests to see every disputed point as referred to these judges, supposed to be. impartial, and no decent callege man would ever be found kicking, as they say, against the decision of an umpire.
 "The athletic field is training, not only in endurance and courage and loyalty, but in every principle of arbi- tration; it is a declaration-the entire athletic system and the intercollegiate system in general-a declaration that only he has his quarrel just who is will ling to submit that quarrel to the im- partial judgment of his fellows, and that applies just as truly in interna- .tional affairs as in intercollegiate con- tests.
 T think it Is most interesting, too, that to-day the most attractive sub- jects in most universities are to be found in social and political science; there is nothing to which our students so flock as into courses in social sci- ence, in civics, in government; in inter- national ethics, and international law. We remember all of us, twenty-five years ago, how it was physical science with its dazzling triumphs, drawing the majority of our yiung men; how a little later biology to unravel the se- crets of human life; later, psychology, thinking it would explain the basis of our mental life; but to-day it Is the study of family, secrety, social institu- tions, development of the village com unity, the city, the state, the nation our international relations, information al law that is most attractvie to large percentage of our students.
 put Sucldl SClelce mas no patience with the old drum and trumpet histo- ries of the past; it finds more interest in the cabin of the peasant, in the live lihood of the farmer, carpenter and mason, more interest in the struggle and uplift of the laborer than in the man on horseback, and the modern in- vestigator in social and political sci ence finds far more of interest in com mercial and industrial and internation- tl development than in the parade of the cavalry or the clash of swords.
 T do not believe we shall be able to make college men take much stock in the old fallacious adage that in times of peace we must prepare for war. I thought that fallacy was dead long ago, but find it is coming to life here and there. thought we had gotten long past that time.
 "I would rather say that in time of peace prepare to make war impossible. What do they mean? They mean when England builds a Dreadnaught

UNLUCKY PAPER MONEY.
Racing Men Clip off Corners of Two
 Dollar Notes Before Betting.

Racing Men Clip off Corners of Two
 Dollar Notes Before Betting.
 Large number of clipped twodollar bills have reached the Treasury De- partment at Washington for redemp- tion in the last three years. These bills are all cornerless. That is, all four corners have either been torn off or neatly cut off with scissors or knife. B,gs
 The officials who interest themselves in tracing such things quickly ascer- tained that a superstition of racing people lay back of the eornerless two dollar bills. It was found that some years ago the pikers in the racing game developed an antipathy to the two-dollar notes, considering them un- lucky.
 The Baltimore. Sun says their me thod of exercising the devil of i'll luck clinging to the two-dollar bill was to tear or cut off the corners before putt ting it into play. The idea spread. It infected the bookmakers, and some bookmakers who received large numbers of two-dollar bills in the course of a days operations fell into the habit of clipping with scissors the corners of such notes as they couldn't unload upon their associates.
 Now 1t is reported that distrust of the two-dollar note is becoming gen eral and that tue cornerless notes are appearing in many places Very late ly they became especially marked at Atlantic City
 (Which shows" said a layer who makes book in the cheap fields of the New York tracks, how little seed- let will grow into something that casts a big shade. I believe I was present at the birth of that two-dollar note su-. perstition.
 Three years ago, at sneepshead Bay, there was a talky roughneck of a Mulligan waiter from some Beef steak Jacks on the Bowery who made all of his bikes in my cheap-fleld book He never had more than a couple of bones when he hit the grounds and these couple of acerinos

An Ind. woman solved the food ques- ton with good sound reasonng. She says:
 "Foralnnost ten years suffered from noor health. which was plainly the re- suit of improper food.

 "Yet I did not realize the real cause of my trouble until recently. have given Grape-Nuts and the exercises in the little book, "The Road to We'll vile" (which I found in the pkg) a thorough trial, and they have worked wonders for me.
 q noticed a change from the begin ming. My headache disappeard and at the end of the first week my stomach did not trouble me so much.
 Now, in less than a month, my nerves are strong and begin to have some ambition to do things. l have gained six pounds and feel full of life.
 "Grape-Nuts food, with cream, makes a delicious dish and I never grow tired of it.

instance, a few months later l was with friend who was buying hat He got a two-dollar bill as part of his change from the salesman, and he gasped when he saw it and refused to put his hands on 1t.
 [" None of those boys if you please, he said to the salesman, pointing out the two-dollar bill. A couple of ones or silver. If it's only dimes, or even hatful of the copper junk-but noro of that stuff. I'd break leg before going block if had one of those Jonah slips In my kick
 And the knock against the two spots Is everywhere new. A great many fellows refuse to take them in change at all, and those who consent to take them promptly tear or clip the corners off before sticking them into their nankeens with the rest of the bank wad.

N1cKNAMEs FOR ROYALTY.


 Kairser We'll supplied-How Other Rulers Are Sometimes Referred To.
 There is scarcely a member of our royal family who has not got at least one nickname, says London Tit-Bits, while some have answered to many. It is said that even King Edward himself is often referred to by the nickname of Edrex, very obviously derived from the familiar Edward: Rex" As a boy and young man, how ever his Majesty was always called by the pet name of Bertie, and for long time prior to his succession to the throne he was generally called the Guv'nor" by the princes and princess es, and it is hardly likely that he raised any objection, inashmuch as he himself has literally bestowed nick names upon R1is most intimate friends
 Probably the German Emperor possesses more nicknames than any other living monarch, though he may not be aware of the fact; indeed his various feats and accomplishments suggest so many new nicknames that it would be difficult to keep count of them Gondola Willie, Ajax. Frederick the Greatest and the Captain are a few of the nicknames most frequently applied to him, the latter having been suggested by the famous cartoon in Punch, which represented his Majesty as the captain of a ship watching Bis marck, the pilot, descending the gang way.
 The Czar is still referred to as Nicky, the name given him when he was quite boy. The late King of Den mark was commonly called the Father, just as King Francis Joseph is known as Father Francis, and King Leopold of Belgium has for many years suf- fered patiently under the unflattering designation of the King with a Nose.
 The Little Signor as nickname is made to fit the King of Italy, whose father, the late King, was referred to as Don Moustaehio on account of his of his father, and one which the pres ent King has inherited to some extent.
 At one time in his frolicsome boy hood. the Prince of Wales was known to the royal family and his fellow rnidshipmen as Sprats, and at a later period he had the nickname of The Pickle forced upon him, For a brief period after his return from his long 1 tour around the colonies, however he was often referred to as The Alarm Iih consequence of his famous wake Up, England" speech delivered at the Guildhall which reminds one that the Herman Emperor was given the same Ipractice of testing the readiness ot

were usually in the form of a two-dol- lar note,
 For long time he had to stand for the daily nudge out. Nothing whatever doing for him.
 He'd make an ein-bone bet on the first4ra he liked, slipping me his two-spot and getting buck in change and the horse would run for Brian Boru, Then he'd poke me the other ace and stand for the shred of that, too. This went on for weeks.
 "One day he showed up with a souse, It was long before the first race when he got over the neighbor- hood of my stool. His bun was a good natured one, and his chaw amused the crowd. He had his usual grimy two-dollar note in his mitt.
 "I ain't never had no luck with these boys, he was telling the bunch around him, as he held out his two- bucker. q haven't got nothing with one of 'em since the Big Wind. They run for the books. Relar layers stiff. I'm going to fix one of 'em and see if l can't make him run fir me"
 
 Then to the further amusement of the bunch listening to him and watch ing him, he deliberately tore the four coners off the bill. Then he swayed up to my stool and handed me the cornerless two-bucker, naming a 2O- to-1 shot on my slate
 "What, the hull two on that one?' I said to him.
 "'The hull two,' l1e replied reckless ly. It's going to hop fir me this time, bo. I've put the squee-doozle on it., and it's going to fetch a hatful of its , partners home,'
 And 1t did The 2O-to-1 shot copped something easy.
 T know'd it. howled the rough neck, tossing his battered lid into the air. I gotta system now all right. It's to take the pizen out O them two spots. That's what's been hanging the can on me them hoodoo double aces. Now I gotta to take the sting out of 'em.'
 There were five two-dollar bills in the $40 winnings paid out to him by my cashier, and he tore the corners off all of these, a grinning but decidedly impressed crowd of pikers looking on while he did 1t, and then iae slouched up to my stool again, with the five | cornerless two-d dollar bills in his hand. l He named 10 to thing on my slate as his pick and showed In the five clipped two-dollar bills In that one.
 Tt came home alone. The gang in the ring who had been watching the moves of the waiter took the bunch. The waiter put $1,10O dent in me that day, and graduated then and there to the big ring, where he con- tinued to do we'll till the end of the season, when he disappeared, and didn't show up again at the beginning of the next racing season.
 And that's what started the clipped two-dollar thing. The pikers in the cheap field who had noticed the luck of the waiter with his corner-torn two-dollar bills instantly went to the gag themselves, and, luck following most of them at the outset, the thing became a habit,
 Tt quickly spread to the main ring, and it wasn't long before lot of the layers hated to see the cornerless two- dollar notes fitting along. Some of the hunohy bookies fell for the super stition themselves as soon as they found out about 1t, and they took to cutting the corners of all the two-dol- lar notes that came their way.
 Tt wasn't long before in all sorts of places, I began to near about the unluckiness of two-dollar bills For

 Her Royal Shyness Is the nickname which the Queen of Norway, who is even better known as Princess Charles of Denmark, bestowed upon her sister, the Duchess of Ff, onR ac- count of her very retiring disposition. The Queen of Norway herself was al- ways known to her relatives and most intimate friends as Hary. Almost up to the time of her marriage Princess Henry of Battenberg was called Baby within the royal family circle. Pussett was Queen Victorla's nickname for the late Empress Frederick, and Allie for the late Duke of Saxe-Coburg! and during the latter part of his long life the late Duke of Cambridge was fam iliarly referred to as George Ranger, nickname suggested by his office of Ranger of Ricamend Park.
 One of the strangest nicknames pos- sessed by the Kings intimate friends is that of the Marquis de Several, who for some reason no one seems able to explain, is known as Blue Monkey. Very appropriate is the name Vof Pocket Adonis which we believe the King himself bestowed on Lord Buch- an. It was his Majesty, too, who nick named Lord Ribblesdale The Ancestor, because of the old fashioned style of dress lordship favors.
 The Marquis of Londonderry is all most invariably referred to in the briefest of fashions as c, though that is hardly any briefer than O, by which society knows Lord Ormonde is meant, and the present Marquis of Salisbury was known as Cranberry while he was Lord Cranborne.
