ATHLETIC NEWS AND NOTES.

The local Y. NJ. c. A. has decided not
to hold its annual cross-country run this
year. This will be rather sad news for
most Of the distance men Of this locality,
who have been in active training for this
popular New Year event. This run has
always been one Of the classiest held in
these parts, and each successive year has
drawn a larger and faster bunch Of en-
trants. From the hustle and hustle made
by the men in the South Atlantic Asso-
citation in preparation for this run this
years event would have been no excep-
ton to the rule, and the decision of the
local association has caused general dis
appointment not only among the ath-
letes, but to the athletic enthusiasts,
hundreds Of whom had looked forward
with enjoyment to the day for the long
grind.
Within the next week or so most of our
local athletes who have been away to
the different colleges will be with US
again. Among those who are expected
back for the holidays are Will Dick from
Michigan. Bobby" Fleming from Cor
nell, Jack Sterrett from Princeton, JACK

MAY FIGHT IN PHILLY.
Short Go for Moran and Ad
Wolgast.

PHILADELPHIA, December 10.-It Is
reported here that Moran and Wolgast
may meet in a six-round bout in this
city. Moran has already declared him
self willing, and Wolgast's consent would
clinch the match. AID has not engaged
in an important bout since he beat Mel
son, and must fight soon or forfeit all
claims to the lightweight title. Moran
very rudely declares that he can punch
Wolgast's head off in six rounds" Tho
men will be asked to post a substantial
forfeit as a guarantee of good faith.

great club, called the Maroons. Comiskey
succeeding Ted as manager OF the
Browns Sullivan put the ST. Louis /, nio.
club together, but made it so strong that
it made a runaway race in that league.
Last year Sullivan's Texas friends gave
him a five-year lease on training
grounds at Mineral Springs, Texas, giving
him the choice to pick whatever team ne
wanted to train there. He at once gave
the Sox the first choice, which Comlskey
accepted From all accounts Mineral
Wells. with it's different kinds of water
and baths. will put the SoX in winning
position for 1911
In final, Ted Sullivan stands alone and
in a different position from any man that
was ever connected with the national
game. He is Independent FROM any reve-
nue. from base ball, but, being booster
of the game all his life, and figuring in
it so conspicuously, it looks as If he VIII

lives. A remark often made by Comiskey
is: lied Sullivan is in no class. as he
stands alone in one made by himself

Central Highs base ball nine will have
another base ball game with the team at
Mercersburg Academy next spring. Ar
rangements have practically been COM
pleted by Manager Minnix of the local
combination, and, barring the unforeseen.
the game will be played at MerceIrsburg,
Pa. early in May.
Last spring. it will be remembered. the
Washington boys gave the Academy play
ers the real scare of the season, when
they played 'em to standstill for eight
innings. only to lose out by margin of
single tally, scored in the final chapter
as a result of an excusable slip-up by
Capt. Macdonald. The Mercersburg au-
thorities appreciate the strength of the
local team, and lost little time in arrang-
ing return game for next spring. Capt
BOteIer of Central feels confident that,
with an even break of luck, his team will
come out on the long end Of the score
this time.

POSSIBLE CHANGES IN RULES
Many Suggestions Appear, But the Intercol-

Limit of Expansion.

ably have followed changes in playing
conditions. 1t is the coaches and players
who make the conditions. Therefore, 1t
is the players who are responsible for the
most frequent criticism directed at the
game the past season. that there are too
many officials. and too much officiating
by the officials. If the players do not
commit fouls officials will not interfere
by applying penalties. distinguished
analyst at Princeton attributes the fall
ure of the Orange to defeat Yale to the
application of d penalty, and an equally
distinguished analyst at Harvard goes a
step farther by assigning the Crimson's
inability to accomplish the same object
to an indiscreet application of a penalty.
The part which fouls and penalties have
played during the past season In eXaS-
perating spectators and forcing back the
players may be realized by a glance at
tabulation of the subject in a few OF
our major games:

Because of the invaluable services
which the All-Star team rendered the
Athletics in preparing them for the strug-

with the Cubs, the members of the

a handsome diamond-studded watch, of

There was d time in the history of this
game when the penalty for an intentional
foul, such as off-side play, was disqualif1-
cation. There also was a time wnen
coaches strove. to the utmost in their
strategic studies to win by tactical for
nations that evaded the rules in spirit
if not in letter. and taught their players
to thwart officials and outplay their op-
ponents by secretly holding and other
methods Of sharp but forbidden play.
To-day it may be asserted generally that
fouls are the result of impulsiveness and
an excess of zeal, rather than of willful
LAY. Nevertheless. the time has arrived
when the ideals of craftsmanship demand
that no evasion or disregard of the spirit
Of plavirg rules shall be considered other
than dishonorable, and that the commits
sion of a willful foul shall be deemed dis
honorable, unfair and a cheat

CAPITOL LAND SALE

! There was small sale of capitol

was not sufficient to awaken the
speculative public to the fact that
the capitol commission took its du-
ties seriously
In Douglas county more than
1000 acres of the best agricultural
land in the Big Bend country will be
up for sale next month. 1t is expect
ed that spirited bidding will mark
the<sale of this tract The remain

| is timbered
Though the capitol commission was
appointed and organized immediate
| ly after the adjournment of the last
| legislature, little effort has been
made by the commissioners to dis
pose of the property under their con-
troll. The commission at the outset
counseled delay, but pressure became
so great that the members finally
agreed to begin a recruise and sale
of some of the timber tracts.
Roughly estimated, it is conceded
that the capitol grant now exceeds
100000 in value. The outstand-
ing Indebtedness, which annually in
creases at extortionate interest rates,
represents about 20 per cent of this
total. Offers have been made to
take the entire capitol grant at fig
ures high enough to retire all out
standing warrants and build a per-
manent capitol building, but as the
lands must be sold to the highest bid
der such an offer cannot be enter
tanned.

 Him.

Rome, April 26.-The Pope gave an audience in the Consistoria1 Hall to sixty American and Canadian pilgrims led by Bishop Lenihan of Great Falls, yesterday. The Bishop read a, Latin address of homage and devotion to the Holy Father. The Pope in his reply thanked the pilgrims for coming to see him and praised their loyalty to the Holy See. He recalled their visit to the Holy Land some time ago. The Pontin entrusted them to bear mes sage to the Americans to the effect that he loved them and that although they were the most distant from Rome they were nearest his heart. He gave his hand to the pilgrims to be kissed and then blessed them.

 Sir-In regard to the suit brought by Emily Page Hsnnon against Wise, Smith & Co. and North End Coal & Feed Co.,, an account of which was published in your paper, kindly permit me to state that the names of Emily Page Hannon and Robert c. Hannon are not among. the membership of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, Bos- ton, Mass. the Mother Church of the Christian Science denomination. The evidence taken in this suit con tains statements purporting to be Christian Science which are entirely out of accord with the teaching and operation of Christian Science as found in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures'. by Mary Baker Eddy, the textbook of Christian Science.
 It might also be added that the name of Mrs. Augusta E. Stetson. whom MT. and Mrs. Hannon claim to have been their teacher. was dropped from the membership roll of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston, Mass, for not teaching and practicing Christian Sci ence.
