WHY BE AFRAID7

Why be afraid Of death.
As though your life were breath?
Death but anoints your eyes
With clay-O glad surprise!
Why should you be forlorn?
Death only husks the corn;
Why should you fear to meet
The ,Thrasher Of the wheat?
Is sleep thing to dread?
Yet sleeping you are dead.
Till you awake and rise
Here or beyond the skies.
Why should 1t be a wrench
To leave your wooden bench?
! Why with happy shout
Run home when school is out?
The dear ones left behind
/ O. foolish one, and blind!
\ day, and you will meet;
"A night, and you will greet.
This 10 the death of Death
I. TO breathe away a breath,
And know the end Of strife,
And taste the endless life. II
And Joy without a fear,
And smile without q tear.
And work nor care to rest.

AN IMPORTANT STEP.
Tho Formation of What is Known as
Tho Ozanam Association.


IMPORTANT in its bearing in the work
Of the Roman Catholic church in New
York City is the formation of the Oza-
nam association, which is to found a
series Of clubs for boys on the plan
employed in the Young Mems Chris
tian association and in various settle
ments. says the Chicago Tribune.
Thomas M. Mulry, president Of the
Irish Emigrant Savings bank and who
for twenty-five years has been inter
ested in philanthropic work. is the
founder, and its spiritual director is
Mgr. James H. Mclean. rector of St
Peters church, in Barclay street.
Although Mr.. Mulry has had the
idea of starting such an association
under consideration for several yeas,
interest in the project was stimulated
by the growing influence of certain
college settlements which We're con-
sidered by Catholics as having a ten
dency toward PROSECUTING. The con-
troversy between the Rev. Father Cur
ry and Jacob A. Riis was one Of the
incidents which caused Roman Cath
Ollie laymen to consider more strongly
the advisability Of founding chain
Of clubs which would combine relig-
ious instruction with features Of so
cial life.
There have been clubs here and
there in the Catholic parishes, of
which one-the most successful one
for boys-is that directed by Father
Curry himself; but they have nevAc
attained as great results as 1t was
thought they should have reached. be-
cause they were not managed under
some common policy The Ozanar,
association will aim to help boys wro
have no place to go in the evenings.
1t will especially direct its energies
to finding out what can be done in
aiding the, boys in tenement sections
OF the city whose homes are not as
attractive as they should be. These
boys are peculiarly liable to come un-
der the evil influences of the pool
rooms and billiard halls. and at an
cigaret smoking and Of drinking which
=. impair their vitality and stunt their
growth. The association plans to give
them gymnasia, clubrooms, games, and
some religious instruction The mair,
object, however. is to bring the youths
into touch with healthy and normal
i: influences.
In It's general outline the plan fol-
lows the principles on which is con-

agencies for good. He and seven fe,-
low students in Paris founded the So

devoted to visiting the poor in their
::homes and to giving relief to those in

Next viii come Ottawa university.
Ottawa has not had date on the
Washburn schedule for several sea-
sons. but in that time the team has
shown great form and will give the
dams will be the next attraction and
the Redskins will prove a hard
match. Last season was the hrst 1or
the Indians in some time and with
the stars of last season as a nucleus
trouble can be expected: october -,
the Blue will battle the st. Marys
team on the latter's grounds. The
Catholics have a hard team to beat
on their own grounds and last season
the Quigley bunch suffered but one
humiliation at home.
The big game of the season VIII De
with Drake university, october 81.
Drake was the champion team OF
Iowa last season and most of last
seasons men will be back. This VIII
undoubtedly be the hardest game
for the Blue this season.
A week later Will come the Kansas
university game, perhaps not as nara
one, but just as important on ac-
count of the rivalry of the two 1nstl-
tons. Washburn won the game quite
handily last season, but the JayhaWkers
are determined to get revenge.
But three more games Will be played,
but they will be hard ones. Paramount
will be the next and the rival Congre-
gational institution always gives Wash
burn a run for her money. Then the
Aggies come to Topeka. During the
last two seasons the Washburn men
have been unable to score more than
five points on the Aggies.
The season will close with hard
struggle on the local grounds. Bonnie
Owens and his plucky Sooners, who
gave Washburn such a battle last sea
son will be here again, and as this Is
the hard game of the Oklahoma sche-
dule, look out for trouble
All the games of the season will be
played in Topeka with the exceptions
of the st. Mary's and K. U. games
The Paramount game may be trans
ferred to Wichita, but that town isn't
so much on football, and a better
crowd is assured if the game is. main
tanned in Topeka.
Everything is in readiness for the
opening of the season. For the past
two weeks men have been at work on
the gridiron, putting sod on the bare
places and otherwise fixing the field IN
the best shape. Men are working or
the fence today and by the time the
season opens a week from next Satur-
day, Washburn will have the best park
| in the state.

his life as practicing physician in the
city of New York, gave ali of his spare
moments to the study Of the hair and

more about the hair and scalp and the
pathology Of badness than any man
before or since his time. The problems

that he attacked with ali the FIRE and

subject. He left to posterity an un-
railing means Of restoring to gray hair
color, and the means of arresting abb
solutely premature badness. and in
many cases of badness restoring the
hair, although he has left among his
papers a statement that hereditary
badness is not disease. therefore not
durable, but that contributory badness,
or badness that is the result of indis-
erection or faulty living can be in most
cases cured. or benefited greatly.

DONOVAN AGAIN TO LEAD.
The Detroit TwirIer Has an Excellent
Pitching Average.

Detroit, Sept. 15.-Although he has
been saved up for the times when he
was right, wild Bilr' Donovan of the
Detroit club, bids fair to lead the
American league in pitching again this
season. He has worked in 20 games,
Is of which he won, making his aver
age $50. Old Cy Young, of Boston.
backed by a second division club has
won 20 out of 20 games. Walsh of Chi
cago has taken % out of Al games and
is third.
Charley Chech leads the list of Cleve-
land fingers. Chech won 10 and lost
6. Three OF his victories were shut
outs and in one game his club was
BANKED. The control of Cy Young
marks the veteran as remarkable
pitcher. Although long past the age
when most box men retire he issued
only 25 bases on balls in the 20 con-
tests he worked. Walsh gave AZ in Al
games. which is wonderful control for
spit ball pitcher, Joss gave q in 81
games.
