FRIDAY EVENING. OCT. IA
Tho unhumbIsd Valet.

The Duke Of Cambridge was once
about to visit Lord Stratford, who had
been appointed ambassador to Turkey.
At an early hour on the morning OF
bis expected arrival the ambassador
went, in slippers and dressing gown
to see IL the rooms were In perfect or
der. He found that the duks's valet
had arrived and was arranging his
masters trunks and portmaEteaus.
Stratford gave some directions how
they should be placed. The man left
OF working and stared at the intruder.
"I tell you what 1t Is" he said. Il
know how his royal highness likes to
have his things arranged better than
you do. So you just be of, will you,
old fellow?"
Lord Stratford left in a towering
passion. Calling one Of his attaches,
be ordered him to go In and tell the
man whom he had addressed In such
language. The attache returned with
twinkling eyes.
"What did you sayT asked the am
bassador.
az said to him, my lord, that the per-
son he had ventured to address such
language to was her majesty's repre-
sentative to Turkey"
"Ah, quite right And his answer
"He answered, my lord, that he
never said you wasn't with Lord
Stratford In the Crimean War"

Not What He Seemed.

Lieutenant General j. Nj. Grlerson
tells an amusing story of some maneu-
vers in which he took part. Only a
small body of troops were being ac-
tually employed, and skeleton forces
were the rule-in other words, small
bodies Of men represented whole diyi-
sions. General Grierson with his stan
was riding along lane when he sud
denly came upon one Of the enemy's
pickets sitting calmly by the roadside.
Quickly the general rode up to him and
said:
''You are my prisoner; you had better
surrender"
The man grinned and pointed to a
flag beside him.

nL.is4iana In Old Roma.

Religious persecution as such was
unknown under the Romans. The
Christians were regarded as seditous.
In denying the divinity Of the Gaze
sars and the Roman gods they were
guilty of high treason in Roman eyes
and were accordingly punished. But
their punishment had no religious sig
niflcance whatever The Christians
were prosecuted not because they were
Christians, but because, in the opinion
of the authorities, they were disturb
ers of the peace and safety OF the
state. Religious persecution was q
thought that never entered the Roman
mind.-New York American.

Wounds of the Heart.

In wounds of the heart itself the es-
cape of blood is never in large quaint
ty, and the lethal consequences are
due to the fact that the escape OF
blood from within its cavity or cavities
into the surrounding sac of the peri
cardium mechanically interrupts the
alternate contraction and expansion by
which its pumping action is maintain
ed. Accordingly the results of the
wound of the heart are usually identi-
cal with those Of gradual suffocation.

in the opinion of football men, make
IL every bit as effective and not so
dangerous.
Under the new rules the player
making the forward pass must be at
least five yards back OF the line OF
scrimmage. and the player receiving
the pass must not be over 20 yards
ahead of the scrimmage line. This
means that long passes up aud down
the field will be done away with. and.
by keeping the play closer. avoid toe
danger from flying and hard tackles.
Flying tackles are barred as is also
crawling with the ball, or pulling and
hauling the runner by his teammates.
A former pupil of Stages at the
Midway institute, and an athlete gen.
Ierally regarded as one OF the greatest
football players who ever donned the
moleskins, discussed the rules freely
"Of course. Just what effect they
will have on the game towards making
| II safer is problematical at this time
We can't tell anything about 1t until
the new plays are tried out. but to me
IL appears the committee has done its
work well.
Retaining the forward pass with
certain restrictions which limit the
zone OF action will make this play
much safer in my opinion. while II in
no way interferes with its effective
ness.
But the greatest innovation ant
the one for which the committee II
TO be commended Is limiting the game
to four periods OF Is minutes each anC
permitting players compelled to leave
the game for rest TO return. This
does away with an exhausted mar

dents have been caused by men re
naming in the game when they were
physically exhausted but refused tC
leave the lineup.
Limiting the onside kick to 20
yards is another good feature. But, OF
course. you must remember that the
success OF the rules. as good as they
now appear 10 be, cannot be deter
mined until the big teams have taken
them up and tried them thoroughly

lions made in the game will make 1t
