DISCUSSING FOOTBALL.
Al Sharpe Says Game Is Worth All it costs-Many Deaths Only a coinei-
 dence-Yonkers Man Says Abolish Present System of Interference.

In the discussion over football aroused by the large number of fatal injuries this season. two gridiron glad iators whose achievements a decade ago thrilled the lovers of the sport, including Dr. Albert H. Sharpe. fla nous in Yale football, and Layton M. Schoch, formerly a Cornell star, took a part at the banquet of the Saga- more club in Philadelphia on Satur- day.
 Unanimous regret was expressed by Dr. Sharpe and the other speakers for the 29 deaths that have occurred among the players engaged in the pas time this year and the hundred or 70 severely injured. ''f
 Dr. Sharpe made this emphatic declaration, and he was vehemently applauded:
 There is no question: he said, but what if you abolish it there will be no more deaths from football. The ques- tion is as to whether it is the kind of game we want to play and have played in our schools and colleges. Person. ally. as a coach of schoolboys in foot ball, l feel that if the boys arc prop erly trained and cared for physically it is the very best game there is to develop real manhood in them.
 Tt is the only game in which a gentleman can get into a fight. We simply have got to have such game. We cannot afford to let our young men go to bridges and dances and all that sort of thing, and grow up to be SO soft that they are afraid to take their bumps when their turn comes later on in life.
 '"The present outcry against the game is due to the fact that one man was killed at West Point and another met with a terrible accident at Am napolis. Heretofore such accidents have happened every season in foot ball. but they have not occurred in big institutions, where the men are care fully looked after as regards their physical condition. Before we did not believe that such accidents were pos sible when the men were properly trained. But I feel that their occur renee in the same season was due to coincidence rather than to any fault in the game, and although they are big sacrifices to make to any game, believe that the game is worth it.
 50 does every lover of football. and the game will go right on, bee cause the young men of America de- mand it as the one best game in which to develop their fighting qualities. So slight changes will be made In the rules by us. fully believing that the accidents this year were due to COG incidence rather than to any unneees- sary roughness in the game"

"MATUSHKA VOLGA."
Melody Of Sorrow Heard In Prison and
Palace In Russia.

Palace In Russia.
There is an air SO popular in Russia
that it is even more familiar than their
national anthem to the people Of that
great, mysterious empire. have heard
1t in all parts Of the cars dominions
from the Baltic sea to Bering strait
and from Archangel to the Caspian, In
the glittaring palaces Of Petersburg
and in foul prison dens Of Siberia.
1t is a simple melody in the minor
key. suggestive, like most Slav music,
Of sorrow and unrest, and 1t is called
"Alatushka Tor Mother) Volga," as for
some cryptic reason every Russian. be
he noble or nihilist, is taught from
childhood to regard this great river III
the light of maternal relative. Yet
the river is full of sad associations,
for convicts formerly travelled a por-
ton of the journey to Siberia along Its
broad. sluggish stream.
l can never forget the haunting
sweetness of "Matushka VOlga" as !
heard it sung on a prison barge one
quiet summer evening by party Of
fettered politicals banished to the
great lone land Of exile, for Mother
Volga" was their last link with home
and the loved ones they might never
meet again.
Fortunately the condemned are now
sent into Asia by the Transsiberian
railway, and the unhappy exile is
spared at least one bitter parting-that
from his we'll beloved Mother Volga.

This stage carried the mail. and 1t had
to 90. When the roads were so mud
dy horses could not pull the stage q
double yoke of oxen took their places.
1t was slow travelling, but they got
through. The steamboat fare from
Glasgow to st. Louis In the early If
ties was 81. That included stateroom
and meals, and If the boat was held
up week or two on sand bar the
accommodations went on without ex-
ira charge. The steamboat owners
never believed the railroads could sue
cessfully compete with them. The way
they looked at it people wouldn't be
willing to travel 100 or 200 miles tied
down to one seat in small car when
they might be enjoying the freedom Of
big and handsomely furnished boat.
"Then how are they going to find room

place to eat or drink; no room to move
about; just sit still all day long on a
little wooden bench. Why, it's down
