The question what is whisky" has
been agitating the government experts
for several months. but the answer has
not been published. A British expert
says: Whisky is a spirit obtained
from distillation from mash of cereal
grains saccharifed by a diastase of
malt" Why not let it go at that and
add; That it is responsible for more
headaches, crimes and sorrow than any
thing ever invented. Look not upon il
when red or any other color.

Passing of the CobbIestone.

From the Baltimore American.
 Baltimore has made such strides since the great fire and the city has been con graduating itself so on its great progress that the application of an injunction to engineer from paving street with cob blestones comes as a jolt to municipal pride to remind us that we are not free from some of the trammels of antiquity And of these the worst is the cobblestonc Appropriately enough, in the last year of the nineteenth century-lS99-an .ordi- nance was passed that cobblestones should not be used in future in paving streets of the city. So the twentieth cen tury began In the gladstone hope that this anomaly in @ modern community would no longer be extended and what was left of 1t to afflict the sight and make sore the feet would be removed by the gradual process of elimination. Hence the jolt when it is announced that tho city is preparing to pave a street with the unsightly cobbles and hence the in- junction of patriotic citizens and dis gusted property owners to prevent a res urrection of past-century methods. Smooth, we'll paved streets are among the prime requisites of a modern up-to- date city. and the cobblestones have ab- solutely nothing to serve them as an ex- cuse for being. They are unsightly blot on civic beauty; they lose time and create labor In travel; they are a source of ridicule to visitors and of modification and discomfort to natiyes-aftogether they belong to the past, with its watch men, its lanterns, it's horse cars and It's other evidences of a primitive village period. !

Guild of Play.

From the NeW 1Ork 1Orld.
 A Guild of Play has been organized in Chicago to promote efficient leadership in the playground movement.
 The plan is to have periodical meetings, when the players, that is the workers, play games, learn folk dances and dis cuss the psychology of play and other playground interests. The purpose is to revive the play spirit and furnsh the Guild members with "a definite and va ried repertoire of games and plays for all ages and occasions" The leaders of the movement are resurrecting amuse- ments and inventing new ones. The membership includes settlement work CTS, kindergartners and others engaged in what is called social service. It Is noteworthy that most of the members up to date are college graduates.
 Begun as an experiment, the movement has already taken hold of the public fancy. Mothers send to the Guild for in structions to teach them how to play with their children, and, of course, the effects are visible in the many play grounds in Chicago.
 The movement is national in extent. We should expect St. Louis, where the in terest in playground work is active, to adopt the idea and work it out. Certain ly there Is no more important work to be done than to bring the old habit of play which is natural to all children to the little ones of the lower quarters of the city. where conditions discourage the spirit and activity of childhood. It might be extended prof1tably to older children, who have forgotten how to play-children from 40 to 70 years of age.

PRIZE FIGHTERS.
Lands From Whence the Champions
 Come.

The fact that England, the country where prize-fghting originated and where pugilism has always been encouraged. has not produced a fighter of any. inter- national importance for number of years, is brought out in '"The Interpre- ter's House." in the American Magazine. The author says:
 q won't attempt a defense of public prize-fghting It is, from certain points of view, indefensble, like war. early marriages and rapid eating. It Is a de. plorable manifestation of the instincts that haven't been civilized out of us. Laws and fashions put 1t down, but 1t as the blood of Irish or English ancestors flows in our veins. And even the Ital- ians-have their champions.
 "The northern Jews have historical proof of their valor and f1nesse In the ring. but in recent years the Jews from southeastern Europe, who are popularly supposed to settle their personal differ. ences by pulling each others hair and weeping, have produced many clever boxers. But who would expect Italy to take a hand in this great northern game? I have been there 20 times and I never once saw a blow struck with the fist. Yet there are so1ne very competent Ital- ian fighters h is hardly possible to go to an entertainment at the club with out seeing Wop, as ne IS caileo py tne votaries of the game, matched against bruiser from the native land of John l.. Sullivan. The other day an Italian dis guised as Kelly was beaten by a Slav called Papke, who had previously been beaten by a Pole named Ketchell. So universal Is the taste and aptitude for fighting. Even the Germans have their champions-not great thus far, but ex- hibiting the fine national traits of stub born courage and ability to take punish ment And they get plenty of 1t. All na- tionalities are represented in pugilism in this country except the English. In fact

The rooms had neither bed nor chairs, and il was unheated The food was thrust in through a. little hole in the door, so arranged with double lid that it could be done without admitting the light. After the door was closed upon me the darkness was such that it could be felt. There was not ray of light any where, and I was decidedly relieved on being let out.
 In the Workshops.
 Leaving the cells, the director took us through the workshops. Until now no labor of any kind has been done in the prisons. Here every man learns a trade and all sorts of things are made to be sold in the stores. The first shop we en- tered was devoted to saddlery and shoe making. This is about 100 feet square. and scores of these gray-gowned, pig tailed Manchus were laboring in 1t. Some sat on low stools before shoemakers' benches, begging and sewing; others were cutting out the fat boots used by the army and third group was working on sewing machines, joining pieces of leather together. 1 walked over to them and eX- amined the machines. They were all marked Singer and had been imported from America. In another factory was a gang of carpenters and cabinet makers, and in a third about two dozen convicts were spinning and weaving. The spin ners sat upon the floor, turning their wheels with the hand, and the weavers were using looms worked by the feet.
 In another place they were weaving car pets and rugs, some of the latter being 20 feet sqpare Such rugs are made on great framework which stands upright in side the room. The weaving begins at the bottom, and as the rug progresses the men have to use scaffolds upon which they sit while they draw the threads in and out. All the work Is done by hand. and that in designs of oriental patterns composed of many-colored wools. One of the rugs now on the frames Is to be IA feet wide and 20 feet long. It Is being made for the American Tobacco com- pany's new building In Mukden.

ASHES OF BUDDHA FOUND.
Discovered In Casket In Mound Near
 Afghanistan Frontier.

London Cable to the New York Times.
 Excavations conducted by the archaeo- logical department of the Indian govern ment near Peshawar, the British strong hold near the frontier of Afghanistan, have resulted in the discovery of an an- cient Buddhist memorial mound, contain ing a bronze casket, within which are some of the ashes of Gautama Buddha, the founder of Buddhism. They are in- closed in a wrought hexagonal rock crys- tai receptacle, sealed with the royal seal of the Emperor Kanishka, who was rul- ing in Peshawar at the opening of the Christian era.
 When the Buddha died in 4S2 B. c. his body was cremated and the ashes divided in eight parts among his disciples" said Dr. l.. D. Barnett, keeper of the Oriental books In the British Museum. "One of the vases containing these portions, known as the Piprahwa vase, was dis covered a few years ago by the govern ment survey"
