The state educational association
is in session at Grand Forks, during
the period of time between the holt
days and the opening Of school for
the winter term, to give educators
the fullest opportunity to be present.
Among the matters Of interest dis
cussed at one of the sessions was as
to the problem Of the care Of boys,
and it was suggested that the girls
did not need so much care, as they
were more under the influences of
the home. While this may be to
some extent, true, the parents who
fail to exercise watchful and con-
tinuous care over their boys as over
their girls are neglecting their first
duty to their offspring. While not
all boys can, from the nature of cir
cumstances, have the best home
training, a great many of them can
have more and better training than
they get. The work of educators in
discipline and training of boys should
be supplemental to the work done in
the home.
The Twin City dailies have served
notice that all free copies are to be
cut off and that even newspapers will
be denied the privileges of exchange.
The advanced cost of paper is given
as a reason and the new order of
things takes place the first of the
year. This reminds us that North
Dakota now has half dozen papers
taking Associated Press reports-one
of which is the Tribune-and that
any one of these papers is complete
news medium, both for general news
and for local reportings. For long
time past the Twin City papers have
felt that North Dakota was a part of
their field, and while this is true to
some extent, it has been suggested
that North Dakotans should subscribe
to North Dakota papers, where they
may get news promptly, accurately
and at as much length as the aver
age subscriber cares to read.

Sold a Stolen Animal.

FORT MILL, February 3.-E. P. n
Nivens has been bound over to {
preliminary before Magistrate Beck
ham at Rock Hill, under $500 bond
on the charge Of knowin ngly disposine
of stolen property.
It seems that valuable horse wa.
stolen from Mr.. j. H. Wilson in Co
lumbia about 10 days ago, and in
few days Nivens bought the horse
from a strange white man.
It is alleged that Nivens, being
warned by friends that the horse hao
been stolen and that officers were
searching for it, took the horse acros:
the Catawba at night and disposed Of
it. At any rate, when the officers
reached Nivens' store, in the uppe,
part of the township, he refused te
tell where the horse was or to give
any information about it, although
it is said the owner offered to give
him back the cost Of the horse.
The officers crossed the river and
succeeded in finding the horse about
10 miles from Nivens' store. They Sc.
cured the horse and, returning to
town, had Nivens arrested on the
above charge.

LEGISLATOR or, Attorney?

Citizens of North Augusta made
certain charges the other day against
Representative Croft, fAiken, one al
legation beingthat thatmember Of the
house is in the employ Of liquor inter-
ests. Yesterday Mr.. Croft made posi-
tive denial of the charges. So there
that matter rests. But is there no
other legislator whose interests as at
torney in some case connected with
the edispensary, conflict with proposed
legislation regarding the dispensary?
The State has often said that one OF
it's chief grounds for complaint
against the dispensary is that its in
fiuence numbs the public conscience.
And that is true. Ethical obligations
are lost sight of; those that adhere to
formal law, after touching the great
moral institution, think they are do
ing pretty we'll.
Suppose that a measure should be
introduced in the general assembly
that would directly affect certain dis
pensary people or dispensary inter-
ests, and that those interests had as
attorneys members of the general as
sembly; and, suppose when such
measure came up for consideration
in committee or on the floor, that the
attorneys whose clients would be at
fected, should refrain from taking
part in the discussion and should ask
to be excused from voting, stating
that the bill materially affected cases
in which they were employed. That
would seem to be the most natural
thing in the world; in times past it
has been done; we trust it will be
done in the future. But with the dis
pensary it is different. Wetind that
work, active, insistent, persistent
work, is done by the legislative at
torneys for persons and concerns
directly interested in the proposed
legislation.
Is it wrong? tits palpably wrong.
It is indefensible. e.-Columbia State.

mitOrieS-NO Raise In the
State Tax Levy.
COLUMBIA, February 1.-The ap-
preparation bill has been completed
and will be presented to the house
probably Tuesday, when it will be
given its first reading by title, and
then printed. The second reading
will be given whenever Chairman
Banks, of the ways and means COM
mittee, deems Undesirable to take up
the matter.
Theappropriationslastyea amount
ed to little less than 81, 100000, or
to be exact, 81 1882. .374.39. AS the ap-
preparation bill now stands, the sum
carried therein is 81, ABE, ,222.77, and
it is likely to be larger than this by
more than one hundred thousand.
The sum named, 81, ,435, ,222.T, does
not include the contemplated ap-
preparation of $21, ,006for dormitory
at Winthrop, nor does it include any
thing for carrying on the work Of the
State House grounds improvement,
nor the appropriation asked for by
the University of South Carolina,
$50, 900, for a new class room build
ing. It does include the $50, 900 ask
ed for by he Citadel academy for i'm
proving the old police station. But it
does not include anything at all for
the reformatory at Florence.
The State house grounds commits
sion VILLAS for an appropriation OF
s25, 900 to complete the Improvement
of the grounds, which with the $24,-
600 for Winthrop and $50, 900 for the
University, and SIS, 900 for the refor-
matory will make an additional $4,
600, or to speak in round numbers, an
additional 100000, raising the total
appropriations to over one million
and a half dollars. That means a
levy of five mills. The appropriation
bill as it now stands means levy OF
four and three-quarter mills as
against four and one-half this last
year. However, five mills is not 50
terrible; in fact, it is now generally
recognized that a serious mistake was
made in reducing the levy from five
mills last year, as if it had been Left
at that figure the State would not
have had to borrow so much money
and would have been on a cash basis.
It will be noticed that there is no
disposition whatever to take up Gov
ernor Anseps suggestion for an extra
two-mill levy to put the State on a
cash basis, as it is generally recog-
nized that this entirely unnecessary

WHAT IS NEEDED
TO PLAY
THIRD
by Jimmie Collins.

Philadelphia, April 3O.--Tell the
youngsters how to play third base
sure | will If there is anything
like to do it is to help the young fell
lows just breaking into the game or
the kids who play ball after school,
and if anything / can say will do
them any good. count me in.
In the first place, a third baseman
must be active, unusually so. He
ought to be set on steel springs. ready
to bound in any direction on short
notice. grab the ball and put it where
it will do the most good.
Third base is considered the most
difficult position to play by many, be-
cause the distance from the plate to
the position usually occupied by the
fielder is shorter than to the second
baseman or shortstop
The third baseman must be on the
job all the time for hard line or
ground hits. or an unexpected bunt
down the third base line. When men
are on bases he must be alert to
cover the bag and at the same time
to gather in a bunt if necessary. Like
all positions in the game, thought and
execution must be instantaneous in
the man who expects to shine.
| advise young players to study the
demands upon them constantly. Let
them figure out for themselves where
they will stand during the various
changes in the game. A third base
man with powerful throwing arm can
play deeper than one who does not
possess this valuable qualification, and
can therefore cover more territory.
1t is essential that a third baseman
should he able to field balls upon
either side as well as those which he
meets dead In front. Once the ball
is in his hands he must get ii away
without the loss of a second. and
must know when he gets the ball
whore it is to go.
The third baseman who can come
in fast on bunts. spear the ball quick
ly and accurately and get it away
without fumbling or stumbling, is an
asset which any team may be proud
of. And he is not any too numerous.

WASHINGTON, April 30.-The monl-
tor Arkansas will attack the monitor
Florida with shot, shell and torpedo
in the Chesapeake bay about May 10.
Not since the historic battle OF
Ericson's Monitor and the Merrimac
will the placid waters of the Chesa-
peake have been the scene Of such
savage onslaught of one war vessel
upon another.
Every portion of the Florida will
be searched by the guns and tor
pedoes of her sister ship There Will
be made a complete and adequate
test of the resistance of her armor
plate above and below the water line,
the efficiency of her bulkheads and
of her fire control and of the effect of
the shot and shell upon her super
structure 1t will be the first time in
the history of the United States navy

made to determine the actual effect

the bunt that is intended to sacrifice
the runner to second. A thorough
understanding must exist between the
pitcher catcher and third baseman
on this play to prevent mixup.
If the man on first at this time Is
unusually fast, or a daring runner. the
third baseman will do well TO hover
in the vicinity of his station, or the
spectacle of a man going from first
to third on a bunt will be witnessed
with the third baseman in the role of
goat, because he overlooked an oppor-
tunity.
Getting the ball and putting it upon
the runner and at the same time look
ing out for spikes keeps the third
baseman busy Runners go into third
base in a manner different from that
used in stealing second, and the sack
guardian must Oe on the job with
hands, eyes and feet to make the out
and avoid danger.
A quick eye and brain, extreme
speed, good judgment, first-class ply
sical condition and nerve are re-
quisites of the successful third base
man, but / know of no reason why
the ordinary American boy who as
pres to the position should not, with
practice, make good on the off cor
ner.

precision, such as marks the work of
that wonderful player, Bill Bradley,
of the Cleveland club. is Of the great
est value and increases the effective
ness of the infield.
Hard hit balls go to the third base
man like bullets, whether they clip
the grass or go to him on the line.
He has no time to think What shall
do?" He must jump at the crack
of the bat to the right spot, grab the
ball out of the air or off the grass
turn and throw it to the first base
man, without a false move or loss Of
time
On the perfectly constructed in
fields of today the ball as a general
thing bounds more truly than on the
skinned diamonds which were so COM
mon . few years ago But at that
one gets bad ones often enough to
keep the senses alert and expecting
the unlocked for constantly.
As a general proposition, when no
runners are on the bases, the third
sacker plays deep, leaving the pitcher
or catcher to take a possible bunt, un-
less he has reason to believe the man
at bat intends to lay one down and
take a chance at beating it out.
With a runner on first and no one
out, he will play in close, to handle
