A PITY.

Thomas a. Edison does not believe
that the human soul is immortal. At
least he declares that there has never
been advanced proof which to him is
adeuate to prove that man lives af
ter death. II the years of toll and la
Dor which have made this man the
wizard of all things material have
taken from him the power TO believe
in the Immortality of the human soul.
then has he indeed paid fearful price
Tor his wisdom and his learning. Edi-
son admits that there is Divine In
telligence, but he does not admit tiat
the soul is immortal. This admission
and denial seem to form a strange
non sequiter TO be the child of brain
like his. To admit the existence of
God and to deny the immortality OF
the soul, is to say that God made man
merely for pupper. That lie gave
into this world things for mere waste
and TO accomplish no purpose. Il
presupposes Divine wastcfulnpss. Ii
SAYS that God has created the power
of thought and aspiration i'm men
merely for whim
Edison is a great man but he has
been hurt in the loss of the power TO
believe. There are many things which
demonstrate TO thoughtful men the
immortality OF the soul, and chief OF
these is the action of the mind Of
man. The mentality of Edison. colos.

functions of material Things. is GER

tainly an evidence OF the existence
OF something in man that is higher
and better and more lasting than the
mere body which is DESTROYED by
death.
Edison offers no statement that the
soul does not exist forever, but he
says that it's existence has never been
proved TO him. In the absence of his
ability TO disproye the Immortality of
the soul IN the absence of the power
to give man something in return for
the belief which he attacks. Edison
would better have remained silent

WANT a CHANGE.

The citizens of Medicine Hat, Can
ada, where all the weather trouble
is supposed 10 originate and which
holds a record for cold almost equal
20 the North Pole, are tired OF the
name of their town and want il
changed. They have asked the advice
of Rudyard Kipling I'm the matter. but
Mr. Kipling tells the Halter TO stick
to the Hat. He says the name is a
valuable asset, that it has the quail.
ties OF uniqucness and originality. Of
association and power. Mr.. llir"'
is eminently right That which we
call Medicine Hat by any other name
would undoubtedly be as cold and
would exercise the same weatherdis-
turbing qualities, but we are accus-
toned to Medicine Hat and the change
would get on our nerves.
II the name were changed il would
probably be changed to Prospcrity
Las Vagas, Beuna Vista, Summerland
or something like these, and when the
winter wind whistles through our
Yhiskers and the coal pile fades to
a memory, it would seem like a su.ri
iege 10 heap maledictions upon these
beautiful names. But old Medicine
Hat comes handy and we can cuss il
without compunction.

SCHEDULE ARRANGED
FOR CRICKET GAMES
Competitions This Year Will
Comprise Four Rounds
Instead of Two
By WILLIAM UNMACK

The schedule committee appointed at
the last meeting of the California
cricket association completed its labors
last week and the report will be placed
before the governing body tomorrow
night. An entirely new system of ar
ranging the schedule was inaugurated
and worked out successfully. Last year
considerable dissatisfaction was eX-
pressed by all the clubs a the long in
tervals between certain games, and
this was not the case with one club,
but with every club in the competition.
This year the schedule committee has
got over this trouble and the longest
stretch that any club will have without
a game is two Sundays. All the clubs
are TO play four games, or the compe-
tition this year Will comprise four
rounds instead of two as last year.
There are only five clubs taking part
in the championship this year instead
of six, as in the two previous years.
One difficulty this year is the ground
question. Some of the games had to
be arranged in such a manner that on
certain dates some of the clubs are
playing off their own grounds.
The schedule has been so arranged
that four veterans games are provided
for, one during the course of each
round No games were scheduled for
any of the holidays, nor were any
games between selected teams ar
ranged, as last year several of these
games were not a success. In the ar
ranging of the games each round was
drawn for and in this manner each
team had equal treatment.
B There are many cricketers in Califor-
MIA who can remember the days when
B. Kortlang was a big factor in cricket
in California. That was eight or ten
years ago. Kortlang can be called a
soldier of fortune as far as cricket
is concerned and he has now made
name and fame for himself in Austria
liza and is well on the way to being one
of the best cricketers in the land of the
southern cross.
Playing for his club (Essendon), he
this inning secured his place on the in
terstate team. He has played against
both New South Wales and Queensland
Against the former he made "a not out
in the first inning and Is in the sec
ond 1t was in the game against
Queensland that he showed his ability
to stop a rot.
Five of the Victorians' best batsmen
were out for Sc runs, when Kortlang
came in. He partnered Kenny and these
two both passed the century mark
Kortlang secured 116 and Kenny 164
not out. Speaking of Kortlang's 1I6 in
this game, one of the Australian critics
in the Sports Observer says: "Kort-
lang played correct cricket in the first
inning and his strokes were neat, but

Stages RULING A
BLOW TO STANFORD
Cardinals Chances i'm Confer
enCe Meet Hampered by
Eligibility Restriction
Especial Dispatch TO The Call

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, March 10.
Stanford will be SEVERELY crippled in
the conference meet at Chicago this
summer by the loss of several of her
most prominent athletes, if the inter-
pretation of Alonzo Stagg, coach at the
University of Chicago. as to the mean
ing of the conference rules is strictly
followed out According to a COM
munication from Stage received by DR..
+. Angell chairman of the faculty COM
mittee on athletics, any man is to be
debarred from competition who has
competed for his college for period
of three years.
BY Stages Interpretation an ath
lete is to be considered as having
competed for a year if he has been a
member of a college team during either
semester of a college year.
AS the communication does not take
cognizance of the fact that the coast
universities allow freshmen to take
part in varsity athletics it is not known
how the Stanford athletes will be af-
fected by the mule
If Stages construction is followed
strictly several of the cardinals best
men will be ineligible, including Scott,
track captain and holder of the coast
who is Stanford's best man in the
weight events. 1t is possible that ex-
ceptions will be made by the confer
ence committee in favor of Stanford
and California on account of the pecu-
liar conditions of athletics that pre-
vail on the Pacific coast.
The Junior prom Friday night marked
the end of the period of light train
ing for the candidates for the Stanford
varsity intercollegiate track team.
From now on II o'clock will be insisted
on as the hour of retiring, and dancing
is placed under the ban. All track
candidates who play basket ball, hand
ball or any such game have been re-
quested by Dad" Moulton to discon-
tinue these sports for the remainder
of the training season to avoid the pos
sibility of injury that would incapaci-
tate them for the race. Besides these
changes the usual strict rules of train
ing will he on forred
