Relation of Sport to Work.

The enumeration of Herbert Glad stones favorite forms of recreation golf, cycling, shooting, fishing, yacht ing and occasionally cricket and foot balP'-which is made in connection with his elevation to the peerage. fur nishes an illustration of the higher value which the English put son the minor interests of a mans life.
 In the official biographies of public men in England a list of their amuse- ments and avOcations is included quite as much as a matter of course as the catalogue of the offices they have held or the books they have published. The fact that John Burns is devoted to cricket, rowing, skating and boxing; that Augustine Birrell is given to pe- destrianisrn, golf and book hunting: that Lord Beresford is fond of car pentry and cycling; that generals play polo; that poets and philosophers oc- cupy themselves with gardening; that a sculptor afmuseS himself with figure skating, yachting, golf, fly fishing, bill lizards and music;" that a lord mayor shoots rides, golfs and 'is a true bibliophile e'-these and other details of a mans recreations which with us re- ceive almost no attention in England obtain a serious recognition. Theirs is no doubt the better way. In this country progress has been made in the last quarter of century in the more rational adjustment of sport and healthful diversion to Work.-New York World =---

meet the situation Assistant Prosecu- tor Vickers has drawn and Assem- bIyman James has introduced bill providing that any corporation con- ducting a bucket shop shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and punish able by fine of s5.000. Individuals are liable to the same tf1I1e and to three years imprisonment besides.
 A bucket shop is virtually a gam bling place, although it is operated under the name Of brokers office
 The difference is that it deals in stocks instead of cards and chips Stocks are not bought and sold outright, but the dealings in stocks are on margins. This means that the bucket shop cus- toner pays so much for the chances that certain stocks will go up or down within a specified time. The broker takes the risk himself and does not execute orders on the New York stock exchange. It is betting on stock prices.
 Thus far no law applies to the busi- ness except the disorderly house act, and it is almost impossible to secure a conviction under that act. The James bill is similar to one passed in New York and seems to be what is needed fin New Jersey-to destroy the busi- ness root and branch.-Newark News

TEACHING SAILORS TO SWIM.
Only the Landfubber Cares for That
 Means of Protection from Peril.

Every deep sea sadlorman who sits at a desk in our beloved capital is ap- parently wrought up over the news that 2.50O men of the Atlantic fleet the fish can do that. What shall it profit us to have hundred Dread thoughts if our bluejackets sink like stones? Such is the gist of the de- spairing cry out of Washington
 The innocent cause of all the excite ment is Rear Admiral Schroeder. From the Atlantic fleet, engaged in practice manOeuvreS in Guantanamo bay, he has sent a casual report of the non swimmers together with news of in struction calculated to enable them to take care of themselves in the water. A likely condition and an obvious remedy. But what dust is kicked up in Washington, whence the hot wires spread tidings of the portentous facts ever could swim. Or if he could he kept 1t dark secret, a family skele- ton, to be concealed most carefully, and always suitably denied in public. to the trade. Swim? Why should a man? What are ships for, anyway? Have you learned to walk on your hands just because your feet may sometime go back on you?
 The landlubOber's notion of the thing Is plainly based on his own foolish fears and ss1udders. To him the sea is a voracious monster and he who goes down to 1t must arm himself with every >art of defense. Instead of which as every seafarer knows the good old sea is far safer than the dirty land, where there are rear-end wrecks, and murderouss automobiles, and woman, lovely woman, to confuse and kill. As a matter of fact, no man Is really safe and at ease and off his guard until the last shore lights have winked out, the nervous tumble of the shoals is past and the forefoot snores contentedly through an ever-lengthening roll
 Learning to swim is harmless amusement for the Atlantic fleet. But we trust its men will never admit their accomplishment. A sailor who could swim would climb through the lubberhole of the maintop and box the compass like drunken cook-NeW York Sun.
