SHERMAN CRITICISES UMPIRE;
GETS RETORT COURTEOUS

Kansas Cty.-Becoming excited
over what he believed to be a bad de-
cision at first base in the game be-
tween the Kansas City and Minneap-
oils teams of the American associa-
ton here today. Vice President James
$. Sherman, who attended the game.
called Umpire Clarence owens to his
box after the inning was over and
protested against the decision. 1t was
the first thing the vice president had
done to show his interest in the
game.
"Mr, Owens" the vice president is
quoted as saying, 81 believe your de-
cision at first base on that man was
Incorrect. He was safe, and had he
been called safe it might have won
the game for the home club, Your
umpiring seems to have been good
outside of that, but believe that de-
cision was wrong"
"WelI, Mr.. Sherman, possibly l did
make mistake, but even an umpire
makes mistakes occasionally" re-
torted Owens with smile, II do not
suppose there are any errors in judg-
ment made in Washington, but here
we are liable to make all kinds of
errors. You know, baseball is a diff
ferent vocation from making laws of
the land"
Sherman was very much surprised
at the answer of the umpire and join
ed owens in hearty laugh.

DIR. SPOONER UNEARTHs
WONDERFUL PAGODA
Has Been Lost TO Human Sight Over
1000 Years-Finds Casket In Build
ing Below Surface of Earth Be-
lieved to Contain Ashes OF Buddha.

London-Dr. Spooner Of the Indian
Archaeological department, has un-
earthed in the neighborhood of Pesh-
awur. a find which has created i'm
mense interest in India, namely. the
remains of great Buddhist pagoda,
including n casket believed to contain
part of the ashes or the Buddha-
Hiuen Tsung, the famous Chinese
traveller of the seventh century, A.
D., described a wonderful pagoda and
monastery which stood in the capital
city OF Kanishka, the early Buddhist
emperor, and enshrined the sacred re-
mains OF the Buddha. Half a mile
from Peshawur and 80 feet below the
present surface. DIR. Spooner has
found the vestiges Of the great build
ing lost to human sight for over 1000
years.
In the smaller OF the two mounds
DIR. Spooner found the remains of a
pagoda. some 2S5 feet across. Its
most interesting portion was stone
burial chamber, the roof of which
has fallen in. damaging a heavy green
nodded bronze casket, seven inches
high by five across, is decorated with
figures Of n seated Buddha and wor-
shippers, a standing Prince and 9TH
ers. the sacred lotus design. and in
scriptions in the Kharoshth script.
The lettering is so corroded that the
finders as yet have made out little
beyond the name of the Emperor
Kanishka and the Greek craftsman,
Agesilaos, head engineer Of the pa
CODA.
The bottom of the bronze case was
loose. revealing the presence inside
of a smaller casket OF rock crystal
which was extracted with the utmost
care II proved to be hexagonal in
form. five inches by three, and to
contain three small pieces Of charred
bone-the relic of honor OF which
the vault and the great pagoda itself
were evidently built 1000 years ago.
Buddhist tradition asserts that the
remains OF the founder were distrib-
uted among various persons and
shrines and the British government
has hitherto recognized the claims OF
the Buddhsts to their own relies.
About a dozen years ago, when n por-
ton of what was supposed to be the
Buddha's ashes was found in stupa
on the Peptal frontier, the relic was
divided among the monasteries of
Burma, Siam, Ceylon and Japan.

The date of publication is three

RECIPE FOR LONGEVITY.

Chicago.-It is easy to live to be q
hundred years old-if you know how
declares Seymour Andrews, eighty
five years old, who attended the an
nual meeting Of the Western Associa-
tion of Pioneers at the Grand Pacific
hotel. Here is his recipe for a hun
dred-year life:
Don't worry.
Live a plain life.
Don't brood over the next life.
BE a moral man.
Drink whisky and beer, but be
moderate.
Use tobacco. Smoke cigars or a
pipe and chew the weed.
Eat and drink everything you care
for. Don't hurry through life.
Don't work too hard.
Eight hours sleep is sufficient.
Don't swear-that leads to other
evils.
BE careful of your health.
Take plenty of exercise.
Be good-natured, not a Crouch"
Isn't that a simple plan?" he ask
ed.
Look at me. am eight-five, but
there are no gray hairs in my head.
/ am still alive. younger, too, than
many who have not lived so long.
never have an ache or a pain, and
live comfortable life. But never
swore an oath in my life"
Other pioneers were somewhat per-
picked by Andrews argument. But
all this was soon forgotten in the dis
cussion of the early movement to
California.

UNIPIRES MUST BE
TRAINED IN SCHOOL

Chlcago--A training school for
umpires will be provided for at the
next annual meeting of the National
league, If President Charles w Muir
ply of the Chicago Cubs, has his way.
The Cub chieftain announced this af-
ternoon that he would introduce a
resolution at the meeting commit
ting the league to such a policy and
also providing that all aribtrators
shall get higher salaries.
Games of baseball nowadays
hinge on one crucial play" he said.
"If player is smart enough to out
wit the enemy and turn the tide in fa-
vor of his club he ought to get the
credit for it and not have the umpire
call him because the play was pulled
off when the umpire wasn't looking.
If the umpire didn't see the play he is
not capable.
"Where are We to get capable
men? l do not know, but at the next
meeting of the National league l am
going to make a suggestion in the
form of a resolution providing for a
training school under which the fol-
lowing test will be given:
First applicants for positions will
have their vision tested by competent
oculists to be paid by the league
Second, some examination pat
termed after civil service examination
to ascertain IL the applicant has ordl-
nary intelligence.
Third there should be some test
Of temperament to determine wheth-
er the applicant can control himself
