CORNELL OR YALE ONE TO WIN
Harvard and Princeton Believed to
Be Hopclessly Out Of Race.


Philadelphia, May 29.-The pick
and pink of the athletes of all the
great universities and colleges of the
east and middle west congregated on
Franklin Field at the University of
Pennsylvania today for the prelimi-
nary events in the big intercollegiate
championship meet. Cornell or Yale
is picked as the winner by the ma
Joflty OF the experts, although it is
admitted that Michigan and Pennsyl-
Vanla have a fighting chance. Har-
ward and Princeton are believed to
oe hopeleSsly out OF the race. The
meet will be continued tomorrow,
when the big events of the program
VIII be decided.

Cartmell and Whitman of Pennsyl-

meets have been a very formidable
pair of sprinters and Cartmell has

the championship title for the 100
and 220 yard dashes in 1906 and
1907.
In April, Stevens, the Yale sprin-
ter, who in spite of an injured leg
performed so brilliantly against Har-
ward took Cartmell's measure and to-
day he looks good to repeat in the

BETWEEN TWO TEMPTATIONS.
b. the

(By the "ParSOn.)
The two dangers between which an
editor steers with difficulty are of an
| opposite character. The one tendency
is to withdraw from the merely hum
an activities of the world and dwell
in a mental reservation, spinning
~geometrical spider-webs of magma
tion from a self-centerd viewpoint.
This leads to preaching and the estab-
ploiting various absurd notions born
of too much introspection. Reporters
and active news writer's are not great
ly tempted in his direction. They
are more exposed to the other serious
temptation that bests the editor. This
one leads to an intense personal int
crest in petty and trivial affairs, such
as ward politics, the nomination of
candidates for school directors, the
quarrels between rival office-seekers,
to mix in any sort of a scrap hat de-
velops, whether in politics, religion,
education or business.
Somewhere about halfway between
these two temptations lies the proper
course for an editor. The reporter has
his troubles out with people, face to
face, the very next day-and is too
busy to remember such Incidents.
However, it does no good to cuss
either an editor or a reporter behind
his back-for three out of the five
men you are talking to will telephone
to the newspaper office or call in per-
son within an hour, and make
you said SO much worse that you are
forever afterward blacklisted.
A daily newspaper is manufactured
on the run. and has to depend upon
the statements of the public for O
of its news. The intention, SO far as
the news columns are concerned, is
always to treat everybody with abso-
lutte fairness, and play no favorites."
The editorial page usually is written
with a little more elaboration; but
editors are human, and the tempta-
ton to expose the cowardly. sneak
who knocks" the paper or goes
about whispering ISLANDERS, is always
present,-and turning the other cheek
is not an elementary principle of the
newspaper business. The reactio1ary
temptation to have nothing whatever
to do WITH the meddlesome busy
bodies and peanut politicians-to be
come a Pharisee and an egotist-does
nobody any particular harm except
the editor, since what may be written
along that line is hardly ever inter
esting to tempt other people into
reading it.

The Democrats of eastern New

connection it has been wisely sug-

Ebert Hubbard, in Philistine.
The person who plays pitch and
toss with you good name is not nec-
essarily your enemy.
Probably if you go t o him quietly
and ask a favor. he will be glad to
or to exert himself in your behalf.
His u1kind remarks are the result of
the Gossip7Habit. He talks to hea
himself talk-nothing is quite SO
pleasing to his ears as the sound of
his own bazoO, and to have others
listen to his vaporings is gratifying
to his vanity.
He dissects the life and belittles
the motives of anybody and every
body who is not present.
Should the person reviled suddenly
lappear pon the scene. the theme
quickly changes, and the newcomer
is treated with kindly Difference, and
is RECALLED by hearing the character
of someone else ripped up into carpet
rags.

He injuries no one but himself.
However, the person who m to

His action is u~nforgivable and unpar-
donable. He robs you of your peace
of mind.
The idle charges when told over

become realities.

"The mar that brings things to
pass is the man who keeps a cool
head under difficulties and directs his
men with precision. Such a man will
clear up difficulties on a busy day
and go home at night care-free and
happy; whereas, the hurryi1g man
labors in feverish anxiety until late
at night, then plods his weary way
home, where he carries an atmos-
phere of depression and darkens the
radiance of loves own beam. There
he passes a ~sleepless night, and in
the morning rushes back to accom-
plish a hopeless task. Thus his days
and nights pass in a ceaseless round
of crude endeavor, and the circling
years only add to his life's bitterness.
