American League AmenabIe

CHICAGO, Feb. 1s.-"The American
league will not object to any minor
changes that the. National league may
make in the 154 game schedule" said
President B. B. Johnson of the Ameri-
can league. THE agreement reached
by the joint schedule committee of the
two leagues at Pittsburg is binding on
both schedules, but we will waive that
right to some extent.
Some time ago I advanced the plan
Of having the two schedules drawn up
by the presidents of the two circuits
with the third member of the national
commission acting as arbitrator. The
schedule adopted in this manner should
be binding on both leagues, and thus
all the trouble that the National league
had this year could have been avoided
Decide for I68 Games
CHICAGO, Feb. 1S-The Western
league schedule committee today de-
cided upon 168 games, opening April
% and closing October 8. 1t will be
submitted to the league meeting later
in the day.

RAIN MARS LONG
BRANCH CARNIVAL;
POSTPONE MASQUE
Fete Will Be Given Saturday.
Great ThrOng on Board
walk After Shower.
Especial to the Newark Star. ]


LONG BRANCH, Aug. ia pour
ing rain marred the pleasure of car
nival last night and forced the COM
mittee in charge of the masque to
postponed the affair until a more
favorable time. Saturday night has
been chosen as the date, and the fete
will be given in conjunction with tho
automobile and float parade.
In spite of the postponement, there
were between six and seven thousand
people on the boardwalk at $3.50. By
that time the shower had passed and
stars were shining. Though the roads
were ankle deep in puddles of water,
the revelers paradedi the walk and
pelted each other with confetti. Per-
haps the affair to them was all the
more enjoyable. because all official re-
straint was absent. There was not a
single instance of rowdyism to mar
the JOY of either the spectators or the
participants.
Many of the lodges and other or
ganized bodies in the city prepared to
parade in a body with appropriate uni
forms and few of these remained away
last night. Indian bands and cowboys
bands mingled In perfect peace with
lines of Puritans and early Dutch set
tiers.
At 10 o'clock the masque ball, which
had not been postponed. was opened
by the committee from the Board of
Trade, which had charge of arrange
ments. Chairman Philip Cohen, with
his assistants proved In the results
of their work the thoroughness of their
efforts. The huge dancing floor of the
Casino was a mass of swaying revelers
representing every conceivable manner
of costume. Their gaily -oolored trap

plates and helmets of Medieval type,

toons of draped flags

royal robes attended by her court.
She wore a white silk gown, trimmed
in lace heavily bedecked with jewels.
over her shoulders was hung the cloak
that formed her royal train. This was
of orange satin, lined in purple and
edged six inches deep with ermine.
Two pages carried her train, which
spread away eight feet behind her.
She took her place on the diaz, and
her court attendants, cabinet of
youth and beauty, surrounded her.
During the intermisslon, when the
maskers doffed their gay costumes
prizes were given for the best and
most grotesque among them G. M. L.
Sachs. in behalf of the queen, made
the presentations.
This afternoon the program will in
clude trotting events under the direc-
ton of John G. Sexton and committee.
Four events are scheduled-half-mile
for 2:25 class, half-mile for 2:18 class,

to get a peek at the injured men In

The photographer was thrown out
bodily, his camera badly smashed and
his feelings much ruff1ed. Later, when
it was discovered that he represented
a New York newspaper that wields a
great deal of influence in this section
of New Jersey, apologies profuse and
plentiful were rendered.

many that happened in the exciting few
minutes following the accident when

by the excited police officers and off,
cials, Brooklns was supported to the

has remained since coming to AsburJy
Park.
On the back seat of the big car was
Mrs. Brookins. wife of the injured
aviator, who had witnessed the fall
from the far side of the field
How are you, WalterT she asked
as Broolins was lifted into the car aR(

"All right" he muttered and tr
smile, but the pain caused b
broken jaws was too great and his

hastily handed him by one Of the
geons.
Then the big auto whisked away from
the crowd bound for the Fells home at
Bay Head.
Many of the crowd left Immediately
after the accident and the few that
remained were visibly nervous as Hox-
sey started--his fight at sos, just 30
minutes after Brookinss fall He re-
manned UP less than five minutes and
made three circuits of the field.
On his second lap, flying about 20
feet high, he flew over the grand stand
at almost identically the spot that
Brookins had been two seconds prior to
his fall that caused injury to eight

As Hoxsey came sailing toward the

WARNED ;'t;il ,G[;E.iIt,

Since the change in postal regula-
tions which now permit the use of
stamps to the value of 10 cents in
place of the special delivery stamp,
the amount of such mail has ma
terially increased. 1t is due to this
increase that peculiar features of
the service were brought to the at
tention of the postoffice department
officials.
So frequently has complaint been
made recently that an investigation
resulted, which brought to light
the fact that a large percentage of
special delivery letters contain
valuables. An official stated that
fully four. out of five persons believe
a special delivery stamp on a letter
means security. ,..... ...'.'
He points out that the practice
of sending money or valuable papers
in special, delivery letters has been
INDUCED in so much recently as to
make the letter less safe than one
with only the 2-cent stamp affixed.
Since there are dishonest men among
the three-quarter million emloyes
of the postal service who handle
mail just as there are dishonest men
in all walks of life, the thief has
learned to look for valuables in the
special delivery envelopes.
The special delivery letter is
handled as is the other first-class
mail. 1t is only when it reaches
the Office of delivery that the ad-
ditional stamp means anything to
the postal employee. This explains
why such large percentage of
special delivery letters go astray,
as compared with the amazingly
small percentage of other mail.
The only remedy is publicity, and
change in the habits of those
persons who use the special delivery
instead of the registry system when
sending money or other valuables.

There Is an extremely good.natured
Yankee merchant near Southampton,
Mass, who has for years sustained the

TO his bodily ailments.
One day neighbor had O, erheard

which he was being taken care Of, re-
criminations that had been met with
perfect equanimity by the long.suffer-
Ing merchant.

adopted, will lose representation in
congress through a dimunition of
population during the last ten
years. while others are certain of
an Increase, due to the growth in
the number of their inhabitants.
The present ratio of apportionment
is one member for every $4,000
Inhabitants. The present house
constitutes 391 members.
If congress were to adopt for the
present census the ratio of ap-
portionment observed in 1900. the
house would be increased by GO
members. This would bring the
total membership up to 400. 1t is
not expected, however that this
ratio will be maintained.
. 1t is expected that when the APP
portionment bill is considered, the
number of members of the house
will be fixed at one for every 1885,
600. This would mean that the
house would remain practically at
its present figures. "A hard fight
undoubtedly will be, made against
the adoption of such-a large ratio,
especially by sparsely settled por-
lions of the country and by those
who fear that emigration futher
will reduce the population. The
more thickly settled states prob
ably will raise no objection to a
proposition of this kind, and in
deed, would be inclined to favor it
since it would insure a relatively
large representation.

FOURTEEN ERRORS OF life


An exchange says the ID mistakes
of. life are:
To expect to set up our own
standard of right and wrong and
expect everybody to conform to it.
To try to measure the enjoyment
of others by our own.
To expect uniformity of opinion
in this world.
To look for judgement and ex-
perience in youth.
To endeavor to mold all dis
positions alike.
Not to yield in unimportant
tri1es.
To look for perfection in our own
actions.
T.. To worry ourselves and others
about what cannot be remedied.
Not to alleviate if we. can all that
needs alienation.
Not to make allowance for the
weaknesses of others. .....
To. consider anything impossible
that we cannot ourselves perform.
To believe only what. our finite
minds can grasp.
To live as if the moment, the
time, the day were so important
that it would live forever.
To estimate people by some out
side quality. for it is that within
which makes the man.

PLATINUM FOUND :.
IN CLARK COUNTY

At the Key West and Great East
ern prospects in the Copper King
mining district in this county,
platinum occurs in peridotite bikes
of the enstatite-mica-p icrite variety.
The properties are situated in the
rough foothills of the Virginia range
at an elevation of approximately
$500 feet and are eight or nine
miles from the Virgin river. The
rocks in the immediate vicinity are
gneisses, probably of pre- Cambrian
age, and are intruded along the
planes of schistosity by basic dikes
which contain, in addition to
platinum, primary pyrrhotite (proi
badly -. 'bikelifferous). -. magnetic,
chalcopyrite@ and pyrite*ar Beside
the periodotite dikes there is also
present. a typical hornblendite dixie
which shows upon analysis a trace
of platinum. Alteration and con-
centration of the sulphides in the
rock by solutions seems to increase
the percen tage of platinum and
nickel, one analysis showing the
presence Of 0.55 of an ounce of
platinum per ton and over five per
cent nickel. The bikes as exposed
upon the surface vary from 10 to 80
feet and are about 100 feet long.
One car 'oad of ore has been ship
ped from the Key West workings.
