London, July 1.-THE British Olympic
Association has concluded not to decide
the championship of the nations compel
ing in the Olympic games held IN LIN
don, this year. and the same decision ap-
plies to the sports now going on. at the
stadium at Shepherds Bush. the, orig
inal idea was to offer trophy Tor the
country securing the greatest number OF
points in all games those held In the sta-
dunn and those played at various CLUBS
such as the tennis at Queens CErb, which
was won by Jay Gould and the rifle
| matches as Bisley, but the difficulty OF
arriving at an equitable method OF allot-
ting the points was SO great that'the idea
| has been dropped. The committee work
ed out several schemes but each wal
| open to so many objections on account
of unfairEess to one nation or another
| and the attempt to reach far basis
having been found quite impossible, the
British Olympic Assn. had to decide re-
luctantly not to offer trophies of any
kind, excepting the gold, silver and
| bronze medals in each competition.
Capt. w. Jones, assistant secretary of
the association gave out this information
which has not yet been announced mere
He concluded his statement as follows:
1.-The newspapers of the different coun-
tries will have to decide the matter to
their own satisfaction. America. probab-

1t is rather amusing to read the
comments that have been made by
some the papers turnout the state,
concerning the University matter.
Perhaps we ought not to stir the mat.
ter up again, but the adverse criticism
of the action Of the trustees in dis
missing Mr.. Tisdel, reminds us very
much of Mark Twain's description of
the Indian crow, and his propensity
to deliver opinions. Her it is, and
it fits some of our editorial brethren
like a glove.
II lever saw such a bird for deliv-
ering opinions. Nothing escapes
him; he notices everything that hap.
pens, and brings out his opinion
about it, particularly if 1t is a matter
that is zone of his business. And it
is never a mild opinion, but violent
violent and profane-the presence
of ladies does not affect him. His
opinions are not the outcome of re.
Election, for he never thinks about
anything, but hoaves out the opinion
that Is on top in his mind, and which
is often an opinion about some quite
different thing and does not fit the
case. But that is his way his main
idea is to get out an opinion, and if
he stopped to think he would lose
chances"

The young men who assembled
here last Thursday and Friday to
take the civil service examination for
forest ranger we're a fine sample of
the kind of men now growing up in
this western country. They were a
strong, well-made, healthy, clean lot
of young fellows, all of them with
fair educations and all of them we'll
versed in the ways of western life.
They are just the kind of men that
are needed in the National Forest
Service, where brains are needed and
where discretion is called for every
day in the management Of this i'm
portant branch of the government
service. There is a constant and
growing demand from the National
Forest for the best young men we
have here in the West. This branch
of the government service is increas-
ing in importance every day and it
really offers the best kind of work
for young men, who are ambitious to
enter Uncle Sans service, to find
permanent employment. The pay is
not large at first, but if the mar is
worthy he is advanced as rapidly as
his qualifications will permit and his
salary soon becomes lucrative and
satisfying.

Recollections Of Last Night.
Communicated }

A %glittering mirror, a polished bar,
Myriad glasses, straws in a jar,
A kind young man, dressed all in
white,
Are nv recollections OF last night.
A side walk narrow, far too long.
A sloppy gutter, a policeman strong,
The slamming doors of a jolting
hack,
Are my recollections of coming
back.
The steps were slippery--hard to
climb,
Rested often, had lots of time,
An awkward key-hole, a misplaced
chair,
Informed the folks that l was
there.
A heated interior, an aching head,
A sea sick man. a revolving bed,
Cocktails, fzzers, drinks galore,
l emptied them all on the bed
room floor.
And in the morning came bags of
ice,
So necessary in this life of vice,
And when the ice had eased the
pain.
Did | swear off? Not yet--got
drunk again.

AND HE SAW THINGS.

And the blow almost killed YER
non.
That is too near the truth. 1t was
an awful strain on his constitution,
this attending a republican primary
and being compelled to swear in his
vote. When he walked up to the
vote-taker, at last Tuesdays repub
lican primary with his soft, cat-like
tread, and rendered his little billet
to the ote-taker, his vote was chal,
lenged on the ground that he was
not IA republican. He turned pale,
reeled slightly and was showed gently
toward the chairman who was ready
With the oath that che was IA republi-
can and in sympathy with the party
holding the election and promised,
on his honor, to support the nomi-
nees of the convention, ETC."
AS he raised his hand to take the
oath his little frame shook with
emotion, blood oozed fromhis sears
and nostrils and his breath came in
short ~''pants." He had just strength
enough left to hand his vote in and
then stagger toward the door. Ev-
erybody was interested in the strug-
gle. 1t was the first time they had
ever seen an anarchist under fire.
When he reached the corner of the
building he stopped to rest and lean
ed his head thoughtfully against the
structure. "My vote challenged!
What an outraged And the man who
did it lives and breathes still"
Then he was heard to murmur, half
under his breath, "My thoughts on
awful things do dwell, damnation
and the dead" His mind was wan.
dering. Then he started up %convul-
sively and made for the river with
unsteady steps. "He is going to
commit suicide" flashed through the
minds of the onlookers and a ~fervent,
but silent, prayer went up to heaven
that his purpose might not waver.
Just as he got to the waters edge he
stopped, turned round, threw up his
bands aud exclaimed tragically:
Pauline, Oh! Pauline, why did you
desert met" From here he took Il
waverlng course back to the street.
He mechanically reached into his
pocket, took out IA plug of tobacco,
bit off "A hunk the size of "a spring
lamb, chewed it refectively for a lit
tie time, then leaned over and. as he
spat out "A quart of tobacco juice, said
in IA determined "Ill do it.
Pm forever damned in the estimation
of this community by this attempt to
appear as ii republican and | might

am demented. The air is filed with
old political buzzards and the ground
is covered with green eyed vipers.'

Wyoming is certain to send an in
structed Taft delegation to Chicago.

one should oppose an instructed del

ance of power, and her people were
divided as to first choice, then there
