An old gentleman some time ago had
occasion to engage a gardener One
morning he had two applicants for the
position. One was a very decent look
ing man, while the other was much
less prepossessing In his appearance
and manner
After q moments hesitation the old
gentleman chose the latter applicant.
A friend who was present eyinced a
good deal OF surprise at the selection
and asked, "Has that man worked for
you beforeY'
"No," replied the old gentleman. "As
Q matter OF fact. I never saw either of
them until today"
Then why did you choose the short.
er man? The other had a much bet

"Facer exclaimed the old man IN,
disgust. LET me tell you something.
When you choose a gardener, choose
him by his breeches. IL they are
patched on the knees you want him; II
they are patched on the seat you don't
want him."-Baltimore American.

The manner In which the metropolis

with by many able chroniciers. The
most trustworthy and at the same TINA
the most plausible story In M follows:
After the Dutch had ceased to be

member or one or the English families
that had gained influence In the rapid

traded oxen with d neighbor and on
his way home stopped I'm front OF q

front yard. and one Of them cried out:
Hello! Those amt the oxen you
used to have"
NO. replied the owner Of the cat.
tie I've got a new yoke"
New yoke at once became a COM
mon phrase and was soon adopted as
the name Of the city. IL was an easy
step from that 70 New Yawk," the
present name Of the place.
The naming Of Chicago came about I'm
Q curious way. Shortly after the build
Ing OF the nrst few huts near the
banks OF the river one Of John Kin
'xie's boys caught two crows, a male
and q female, which ne tanned and
taught TO speak the English language.
The Kinzies had at that time a young
Indian maiden. who did plain sewing
and other household duties, and she
became very fond Of the pet crows.
One day the female crow managed
somehow to get out Of the cage In
which the birds were kept and at once
new away. The Indian girl chanced 10
see- the crow make It's escape, and,
greatly excited, she rushed into the
dining room. where the various mem.

STECKER OUT OF IT.
Y. N. C. A. Captains Physical Con-
dition Bars Him From Long Races.

The Y NJ. c. A. team received a shock
last night from which it will take quite
a time to recover, when it was learned
that Capt. John q. Stecker WAS disquali-
fed from competing in tomorrow's mara
thon. According to the rules of the run.
every contestant must pass stiff med
ical examination before being allowed to
compete, and this examination for all
local entrants was held at the local asso-
citation last night. Much to every ones
surprise, the examining doctors declared
Stecker physically unable to take the
run. His friends state that he is q little
run down on account OF being over
trained.
Stecker is without question the premier
distance man Of Washington, and many
looked for him to bring home the bacon
I'm tomorrow's event. He has run any
number of good races and was always
to be depended upon to finish well up
among the leaders in every event in
which he competed.
The Y NJ. c. A. won the team trophy
for this run last year and was counting
on repeating this year, but Stecker's loss
will make q gap which cannot be filled
and will probably prevent the associa-
ton team from winning.

CREWS MAKE FAST TINE.
Georgetown Fights Go Over Two
Mile Course in High Wind.

Grasping an opportunity to try out his
crews under weather conditions very
much like those usually prevalent at An
napolis, Coach Dempsey yesterday sent
his three Fights over the two-mile course
in q time trial. During the whole race
the wind was high and the river was
churned into a choppy roughness, but
despite this handicap all Of the boats
managed to keep good keels.
The start yesterday was made at the
Hen and Chickens and finished at the
bend. The Ireps and second crew had a
length handicap on the varsity. but this
was soon overcome, and for a mile above
the Aqueduct bridge the three Fights
contended on nearly equal terms. Shortly
before reaching the bridge the varsity
began to let out and gained steadily on
the second boat, having a lead OF three
lengths mt the finish OF the race. The
preps dropped out at the bridge. at which
point they were still holding their own
with the second varsity.
Although the time taken was not Of
ficially given out 1t was rumored that for
the two miles it was far better than what
Harvard made in defeating the Middles.
The men bore up we'll under the fast pace
and kept their form consistently to the
end After the race they took a five
mile paddle, going to Long Bridge ana
returning to the boathouse
