the committee that the physical d.
rectors form and submit an opinion as

Their conclusions were.
That the gar Of football offers 20
a large number Of boys an opportunity
for organized play and sport not pos

game yet perfected.
That rugby football should not be
discontinued without Offering in its place

degree familiar and which brings into
action the many qualities Of mind and

Queer ,nitiassry Ordeal Of New AT
Students In Paris.

The most curious Of the many
practical jokes perpetsated by the
art students in the Latin quarter is
q kind Of initiatory ordeal which
the two newest corners Of class
are sometimes compelled to under
50 by their fellow students Of the
Beaux Arts. 1t is painters duel,
in which neither combataut, no
matter how small his experience
nor how great his nervousness, need
fear for a fatal termination.
The reluctant duelists are proyid-
ed with tall stools and seated oppo-
site each other at arms length.
They wear old clothes, and in the
hand Of each IS placed large paint
brush charged with color, the one
dipped in prussian blue, the strong
est and most vivid Of azure tints,
and the other in carmine lake,
which is fne rich crimson. The
word is given, and the two men
begin to daub. Being usually stran-
gers to one another and without the
least cause of quarrel, they COM
monty show at first great deal Of
caution and consideration, not to
say timidity, and do not make much
effort to intlict conspicuous streaks
OF to touch each others face.
Soon, however, one or the other
gets a smear which he does not like
and attempts to retailiate upon his
opponent. Then the contest wakes
warm. The spectators hasten to
take sides and urge on their favor
lite with shouts, cheers and encour-
aging cries. The tall stools totter /;
the wet brushes spatter; the antag-
onists daub more and more fercely
and furiously until frequently men,
stools and all go down together in
struggling red and blue heap upon
the floor. The duelists are then as
sisted to their feet, shake hands,
laugh at each others appearance
and adjourn to the lavatory, where
they good naturally help each other
to remove the traces Of the conflict.
The knight Of the red brush is
found to have smeared his adver-
sary until he might pass for hero
of the goriest field Of history, while
the victim Of the blue brush, if only
blue blood were q fact instead Of a
figure, might pose for q survivor Of
an equally desperate fight.
1t speaks we'll for the temper and
good comradeship Of the students
that SO rough kind Of fun ends
where it begins, in the mock duel,
and never, it is said, leads to resent
ment OF i'll will.-New York Press.

There had been an incessant
downpour Of rain from the carly
hours Of the morning, and still the
angler sat on the bank of the river
Doubtless he was fishing for his tea,
but success did not attend his cf-
forts, and his only consolation was
a small eel about the size of n worm.
Suddenly drenched urchin made
his appearance. Caught much?"
asked the boy.
Cant ysu scc." impaticntly re
Piled the angler.
"Yer'll catch nothing there, mis-
ter" Noreply. After slight pause
Il know where you can catch some
though"
.Where?" eagerly inquired tn,
ardent angler.
sUnder the bridge" replied tn,
aHow do you know"
because they allus go there i
keep out Of the rain"
The angler got up to stretch him
self, and The youth made hasty re-
treat.-London Ideas.
