TROUBLE WITH WASHINGTON.

What makes follower OF the Wash
ington team particularly sore Is that
it gives every indication of being a
run getting organization, says the De-
troit Journal. 1t has swatters or
marked ability and these shining lights
have been hopping upon the opposition
pitchers with force and enthusiasm
that has resulted I'm enough runs to
win the ordinary ball game. Long.
long did the fans complain that WASH
ington had a few good pitchers of the
Case Patten or Walter Johnson type,
who could hold the enemy in check
but that their efforts were wasted be-
cause the team behind them could not
score. Now the boot is on the other
sg and II beats the Dutch to account
for the switch in luck. The 1910 bunch
is doing quite as well on the ofense'
but its twirlers have caused all the
good aggressive work to go for nanght.

Examination by Physician Re-
veals Many Interesting Re-
suits to Men.
NO OTHER SERIOUS RESULTS

The usual physical examination OF
the ontsstants i'm the American Mara
thon, which was conducted by the
Boston Athletic association recently
shows many interesting results, and
the report made by the physicians is
as follows:
The weight before and after the race
mas taken. and of those finishing the
weights before and after the race We're
obtained i'm So of the runners. In some
instances the runner had food and
drink previous to being weighed. so
that in all cases the loss does not rep
resent the full amount.
There we're S5 runners weighed i'm at
both points. Total difference i'm weight
in these SO runners, 56h pounds; av-
eraged weight lost per runner, 6 Al
pounds; largest amount lost by any
one runner (weighing 1873 pounds at
start and 121 pounds at finish), II lbs:
smallest GOO pounds to 90 pounds. /
pound; weight lost by winner. pa lbs;
weight lost by oldest runner (Petcr Fo-
ley, so pounds; weight lost by young
est runner Darius Allaise). 1 pound.
No contestant was prevented from
starting in the race. and all that fin
ished were in good condition. AS far
as can be learned there have been no
serious results from this contest.
The youngest contestant, IS years
old, did not finish So far as could
be learned none of the contestants used
alcoholic stimulants during the race.
A few years ago it was not uncom-
mon for them TO do so. but i'm most in
stances the runner soon became un-
conscious and could not continue. The
deslrability of abstaining from alcohol
during the contest has now been suffi-
GENTLY impressed upon the minds of
the trainers, and it is gratifying to see
the much better condition of the run
ners on an average than when alcohol
was quite freely employed

POLE WILL AVOID ROUGH
TACTICS With CHAMPION
Zbyszko will Wrestle Entirely on

That Zbyszilo, the Polish chamnion

championship Of the world i'm Chica-
60 Memorial day, has already map-
ped out the plan of his campaign
which he will follow out in his bout
with the holder of the title, is well
known to some of Zbyszko's friends
who are i'm his confidence.
During his recent visit to Detroit,
ZOyszko expressed himself freely on
the match and gave very broad hint
as 10 tho tactics which he will endeav-
or to pursue. i'm the bout.
Don't think for a minute that Zbys-
zbo Is going to stay on his feet and
let Gotch bull him around as he did
Hackerschmidt," was what one of the
Poles friends remarked after long
tan; with The foreigner, in their ma
tive tongue.
"Zbyszko means to be on top when
he and Gotch hit the floor. But, If
he finds himself unable to upset the
champion he won't allow Gotch to
keep him standing while he butts him
with his head. as he did Hacken-
schmidt. When the time comes, Zbys-
zko will go to the floor voluntarily and
let Gotoh go behind, relying on his
strength and wrestling knowledge to
get him the advantage later on.
II don't think that Zbyszko wants
TO match anything but wrestling abil-
ity with Gotch. He will try TO avoid
prize-ring tactics and unfairness just
as much as he can. and he is going to
have some say about the appointment
CT a referee who will prevent the use
of the tactics employed by Gotch in
the Hackenschmidt bout"

Anti-spitting ordinances, laws and

alleges the National Association for

report. While most of the larger cities
of the United States have such laws
on their books, in the great majority
of cases they are ignored or over
looked. The report covers in detail
the enforcement of the anti-spitting
ordinances in so of the largest cities
in the country. During the year 1909
in these so cities, 3,421 arrests were
made for violation of the laws regard

The Fear of spinsterhood

By thousand daily suggestions the
power of wealth is SO emphasized that a
sudden transition to a married life of
comparative poverty, no matter who the
man, becomes unbearable in thought.
This is usually the fault of thoughtless
parents, said Robert Haven Schauffler,
in Success Magazine. Thoughtless because
few parents would remain utter material
lists in these matters who had thought
out the logical implications of such an
attitude, and had come fully to realize
the bald truth of Professor Thomas
words: ITO the extent that women make
finery and luxury dominant IDEALS and
provide themselves with no charms of
mind and character, they are putting
themselves, and marriage as well, in COM
petition with the prostitute class, in which
these are the dominant and sole deals.''
This tendency fosters another cause of
low ideals by severely restricting eligible
men to the financial elect. The society girl
is held inflexibly within her own small
sphere. In her young days one of the
present investigators was asked by a
matron of her own set why she tolerated
a certain man. "Why. because I like
him. she answered; ''he interests me-"
"Oh," was the retort, but you shouldn't
be wasting your time on such men. They
aren't marriageable, you know" 1t de-
veloped that ''marriageable" was to this
lady a synonym for successful" That
was 10 years ago. and since then the

words have been growing more synony-

The wonder Is when society ostracises
principles-w ithout-peace, setting dollars
above character and tempting its young
men to grasp wealth at any moral sacri-

should not sink as low as the ideals of
the masculine market place Of which they

The fear of spinsterhood is apt to be
compelling in inverse proportion to the
population. Several of the smaller towns
have been studied where SO many of the

The chief reason. however, for the So

stearning hot, into a tumbler of chopped
ice, adding more ice from bowl as 1t Is
needed. IT, however. ice is scarce and
you must make a small piece do a days
work, brew your tea some hours before
you will want it. and stand the pitcher
containing it near the ice to grow
thoroughly cold. You will get almost
as good result with much less waste of
the precious ice.
To make ice tea In the first way, have
your water boiling, but not having boiled
for some minutes, Put the tea into a
cheese-cloth bag. and pour the boiling
water on 1t. Let 1t stand, covered for
ten minutes, and then pour over the ice.
Use enough tea to make the brew quite
strong, as the ice dilutes 1t. Have ready
to serve with this tea plenty of lemon
sliced very thin and powdered sugar.
Straws may be used as for lemonade.
To the second method of making the
rules apply, up to the point of pour
ing the tea over the cracked ice. If you
are to use the tea later, let 1t stand the
same length of time, then take out the
tea in the cheese-cloth and stand the tea
pot where the contents will grow cold-in
a breezy window perhaps. Later, put II
against the ice until needed.

Iron Fishing

From the London GLOBE
The bottoms of many Swedish lakes
are covered to thickness of six or
eight inches with fragments of iron ore
of the size of peas. This lake ore con-
sists chiefly of ocher, or hydrated oxide
of iron, clay, sand and other impurities
and yields pig iron of very good quality
The ore is obtained by very primitive
methods In winter hole is cut in the
ice, scraper attached to long pole
is inserted, and all the ore within reach
is collected into heap beneath the hole.
Some of the mud which has been scraped
together with the ore is removed by
stirring the mass with poles. and the
ore is then scraped into bags which
have been sunk and Is hauled up. In
summer this curious mining operation Is
conducted in a similar manner from RATS
anchored in the lake. Two miners can
bring up about four tons of ore in a day.
Steam dredges have recently been In
stalled in a few places. About 30 years
after the removal of the ore a new layer
Of the same thickness is found to have
been produced by natural chemical pro-
ceSseS.
