THINKS THINGS.

AL AuicIlCttu WHICH, Wiz hA'sS-
reached the age of maturity with
out having witnessed a game OF
baseball, or becoming
familiar with the rules governing
the playing of same would surely
be rarity. In Canada, however,
such deplorable lack of knowl-
edge might be easily excnsable for
there much less interest is taken
in the great American game. The
national game Of that country is
lacrosse, game first played by the
Indians and which is older than
Canada itself. It would be hard,
indeed, to find youth in that
country who is not familiar with
tins game. A lacrosse is among
the schoolboys first and most val
ued possessions and the regulation
games are always attended by both
young and old.
AS compared with the American
baseball game, lacrosse as played
today, is beyond doubt the rough
er of the two games. But If play
ed scientifically and with strict re-
gard for the rules it is not such.
The financial side Of the two games
presents strong contrast. The
regulation lacrosse players of the
big league clubs receive no snch
enormous salaries as the average
American baseball players. The
teams are for the most part COM
posed Of local talent. Players are
sometimes imported fr Q IN other
cities, but usually some induce
ment is offered other than t h e
wages they will receive for their
work on the team. Many OF the
players, especially i'll / h e small
towns, have regular employment
at good salaries, a t which they
work when not playing the game.
Such positions are always available
among the better class Of patrons
Of the game who feel an interest
in the home team and are therefore
anxious to retain the players serv-
ices with the club. Many OF the
clubs pay their players a percent
age of the gate receipts, though
occasionally a certain fixed sum
for each game is paid instead.
| Under the latter system a good
player may command fifteen or
twenty dollars a game and some
times more.
! The principal Winter sport on
the other side Of the line is hockey
las is also played In this country.
The interest in this game is no less
than that taken IN the popular
Summer game, above mentioned.
There is nothing more entertain
ing or exciting than a closely con-
tested game Of hockey between
two evenly matched teams. Sc
rious accidents are not uncommon
among the players of this game
and still the sport continues N
high favor among all classes and
important games are always large
ly attended.
Other sports, such as fishing and
hunting may also be enjoyed to a
high degree in Canada. Especial
ly the former as the fishing streams
Of that country have long been all
, attraction to the anglers Of both
countries. In Western Canada
} large game is still to be found,
though not as abundantly as in
former years. For many years the
,, large for trading companies have
operated in that part of the coun-
try with the result that the large
game Is thinning out, or being
driven far inland. The lover OF
outdoor sport will, however, find
no lack of amusement in the broad
domains on the North.

PHILADELPHIA. March 2S.-
This is what they are selling on
Anthony Comstock, noted purity
agitatOr. Anthony must be some
cut-up, indeed.
He was invited to address the
Presbyterian ministers of this city
on his widely known work, and he
did so. In the course of his re-
marks, which We're entirely infor-
NAL, he produced a red covered
book which he said, with some dis
play of emotion, he had picked up
in New York, and which was fair
sample of some of the stuff that
was being sold there. He handed
the volume to the nearest preacher,
and others craned their necks to
see what the title was. The preach
er lost no time in opening the COW
ers, and as he did so there was a
sharp explosion like that of parlor
match. and everybody jumped. That
was all there was to it. 1t was a
trick book.
After a gale OF merriment pro
voked by this stunt, Mr.. Comstock
became serious, and told some de-
tails of his warfare on vice.

NO PLEASURE IN DRINKING

BOSTON, Mass, March 2S.-
Next car passes this saloon in
three minutes-just time for an
other round, gentlemen" is a famil-
lar cry in all Chelsea cafes and
bars today, the new liquor license
law going into effect March 20.
Under the regulations of the IL
censing commission each saloon
must employ an announcer to cry
out the next time car will arrive
thus gently reminding the patrons
that time is flying and dinner may
be waiting. The rules, which are
the strictest in New England, also
provide that only one line of men
may stand before a bar, and those
in this fortunate position may not
pass back drinks to the others who
are unable to get one foot on the
brass rail.
