w" are frequently asked. why
does not the Business College have
Commensurate" This question Is
rather difficult to answer briefly,
but in order that the people may
know the main reasons, we desire to
say that our school graduates one
or more students, virtually, every
month throughout the school year,
SO that when we come tn the close
of our term, we usually find only a
few ready to graduate. Those who
! have finished their work and gone
out into positions, to St. Louis and
other cities, would find it inconveni-
ent as well as expensive to return
to participate in the commencement
program, and to ask few to bear
the burden of the work would prob
ably not be the best thing to do, as
ii would not give our school the
proper representation, since prob
ably ninety per cent of our graduates
could not be present to participate
in the exercises. Again, our courses
of study are of II peculiar nature, in
that we can scarcely tell a. much as
two weeks ahead who is entitled to
graduation. So that there would he
probability of some students being
classed among the graduates and
afterwards fail to pass their tests,
thereby placing them in Il very EN-
barassing position, or else cause the
school to make certain concessions,
which would be contrary to the high
plane OF moral right upon which our
school il conducted.

Newark Club Jumps in and
Cops Game from Rochester
Club.

Fresh from Canadian pastures where
they a partaken of the royal hastings
of Jimmy Casey's horde Stallings' 5
Tigers romped out on the battlefield at
Wiedenmayer's yesterday afternoon,
and showed their teeth to the Broneos
from Rochester In such a ferocious
style that the Broncos We're simply
backed off the local lair until, subdued
and cowed, they permitted the Stall
ings turnous to carry another victory to
the clubhouse. 1t was a glorious day
and a still more glorious game. The
fans, hungry as the proverbial wolf for
some morsel to their liking, turned out
in big numbers and gave the Tigers the
gla hand when they appeared after a
nights hard S00-mile jaunt from the
domain of Kings and Queens to the
land of the Stars and Stripes.
Not a Tiger but was glad to get back
TO his old corner, and the Broncos APP
peared somewhat hopeful because they
had a decent nights rest, while the
Tigers were penned up In one of Mr..
Pullman's patent tight air cars, known
In railroad circles as "sleepers."
But the journey had no apparent eff

NEWARK X. OF C.'S
CABLE HALSWELLE
TO COME HERE
Want British Athlete to Meet
Carpenter in 4OO-Metre
Race.

That the managers of the knights of
Columbus athletic meet. which is to be
held here next month, are leaving moth
ing undone to make it one of the largest
of its kind ever held in this State and
in this part of the country as well. be-
came evident TODAY. when Thomas A.
Brady. one of the directors of the meet
sent a cablegram to London. England,
inviting the winner of the 4OO-metre
race In the Olympia games to come to
this country and meet the man who
beat lin. but was disqualified because
of an alleged foul.
1t will be recalled that Carpenter, the
American. won the race against Lieu
tenant Halswelle. of the British army,
but the judges decided that Carpenter
had fouled his opponent by sticking his
elbow in his side when both were rum
ming neck and neck around the course.
The Americans present rebelled
against the decision, but Halswelle was
declared the winner and hat settled the
matter. With a keen foresight, for
which they deserve credit. the mana
gers Of K. of c. games have decided to
bring Hallswelle over here and to let
him and Carpenter fight 1t put on New
ark soil.
The following is a copy of the cable

1t would be the greatest achievement
of its kind If the Casey" men could
only get the English officer to come
over, and such a reception that would
be rendered to him would e the
lieutenant back home with a broader
view of American fairness.
But it is hardly likely tina Halswelle
will come over. He knows Carpenter
and he knows hat If Justice had not
peer gagged and blindfolded Carpenter
and not Halswelle would be the name
hung up as the winner Of this particu-
lar event. Halswelle may, however. an

GLIDDEN TOUR COST
OWNERS NEARLY S25O,OOO.

The six Great Arrow cars seen on the
tour, n occupied by Chairman Hover
and Charles j. Glidden, donors of the
trophies being competed for, as a pace
maker; three In the team representing
the Automobile Club of Buffalo, and
two in the competition for the Hover
trophy, arc valued at $4,000 The
G. n. Pierce Company having won the
trophy twice with Percy Pierce driving,
and having aided the Buffalo team to
win last year with two perfect scores
by Dey and Kumpf, has gone to i'm
mense expense this year In placing six
cars in the field or five in competition.
1t is roughly estimated that the great
tour entails an expense of at least
$25, 900 to this company alone, and that
the makers generally who have entered
the 81 cars in the regular competition
will be put to an expense of over a
quarter of a million dollars. The cars
used alone represent that amount.

way until the third inning, when Devore
started the powder works. On Batch's
missfVe Joshua took third and then
Demmitt. the former Oriole, drove ono
to far right, which Cy Barger sand
bagged, but DeVore was over the pan
with the first tally and Mr.. Henley's
balloon strings were cut and he started

three runs were I'D on the blackboard.
