In case any fastidious ball crank
should ever insist on nine made uI

White or Brown by hue, but there are
few others. The Whites of pro
fessional baseball last season were

shifting a couple of them, could put
up an awful battle as family team.

The bills which have been intro
duced, but about which no definite
action has yet been taken, cover a
wide range. Agriculture, taxation and
education seem to be popular ques-
lions with the delegates. and a number
of bills relating to each of these topics
have been presented. There is bill
providing for compulsory education,
one requiring that native languages
be taught in the primary schools, one
providing for the further establish
ment of manual training classes in the
schools, one providing for an agricul
tural college in each province, one to
establish industrial schools, one COM
polling the teaching of English in the
barrio schools. The state of agricul-
ture in the islands is evidently on the
minds of many delegates, half a dozen
bills on this subject having been in
troduced. One provides for the free
distribution of agricultural imple-
ments under certain conditions, an
other provides for the revocation of
land sold under failure to pay certain
taxes. There Is bill to abolish the
death penalty, one to permit Chinese
immigration under restrictions, and
one to prove the insular waterways.
Fortysix bills apply to revision and
amendment of various laws. Six of
these propose amendments to the
election law. A bill provides for the
corpus. One provides for the erection
of insular government buildings in
Manila.
Apart from it's legislative efforts, it
is interesting to note some effects
which the assembly is having upon the
general political state of the islands.
Thomas F. Willard, the New York
Times correspondent, says on this
point: Il have just returned from a
trip about the provinces, and l am
convinced that the sentimental effect
among the people is very great. At
any rate it has provided a diversion.
People, and consequently the poll
ticians, no longer discuss with the
same interest what the Americanos are
doing or intend to do; they are talk
ing about their own assembly. What
is the assembly doing? What is the
assembly proposing to do? Have you
read Queson's speech? All, yes; but
do not agree with him. Osmena's
reply was much better. The land law
should be revised. Yes; let us write
to our assemblyman. And SO on
throughout the islands,

WILD RIDE IN A BALLOON.
Woman Describes Her 3oo-MiIe Trip
in a Storm.

London-Hon. Mrs. Assheton-Har,
bord, who, accompanied by ]. F. Pol
lock, left Battersea in the balloon VAL
kyrie on Friday night in an attempt to
win the Northcliffe challenge cup,
landed, after six and a half hours, in a
forest near Verdun, about 800 miles
from London, as the crow flies.
"At 1920 we encountered a violent
squall," says Mrs Assheton-H arbord,
in the course of a thrilling narrative
of their voyage, and the car swayed
to such an extent that we had to hold
on to avoid being thrown out"
It took 81 minutes to cross the chan-
mel from Dungeness to Boulogne, and
subsequently strong vertical currents
of air caused the balloon to shoot al
ternately upward and downward very
rapidly.
There was a good deal of sheet
lightning, and the car seemed illum-
mated as if by electric light" says the
woman. "At two o'clock we encoun-
tered a terrific snowstorm, which
half filled the balloon"
The balloon later shot up to an alti
tude of 5000 feet, and then descended
rapidly, crashing down on some trees
with great force.
The envelope Of the balloon was
torn, and all the scientific instruments
carried were smashed, and the aero
nauts were compelled to get out Of
the balloon as best they could and
wait in pitchy darkness till dawn,
when they found themselves at the vii
lage of Handiomont, near Verdun.

The costumes of the young women,

ETY., though unfamiliarity with the
fine points Of masculine attire led
some of the characters to appear in
suits that were either too roomy or
snug to the point Of bursting. The
young men arrayed themselves in a
manner which spoke loudly for artistic
taste in matters feminine. They
were provided with tickets and passed
the doorkeeper without question.

overheard the comment, bore the It'd

cided that as the performance was
two-thirds over and the remaining
numbers were. quite commonplace, the
easiest way out of the dilemma would
be to let the young men remain.
An incident not on the program
caused the youths to flee. The mas
terly performance Of THE Whirlwind
Jugglers" was initiated by fair clowns,
who introduced lemons instead of the
regulation spheres, and finally in dis
dain threw the fruit into the audience.
The first lemon brought up against
the nose of the ''by jove" youth, and
the next struck his COMPANION. The

Much fear has been expressed in re-

Smiths, who have done so much in
baseball, should die out and pass away
from the game. Wrong idea. Even
though Alec Smith has skidooed, there
are enough Smiths left to flood a
