SOUTH ORANGE OPENS
THE AMATEUR LEAGUE
SEASON ON HOME GROUNDS.
Games Tomorrow.
Staten Island F. c. at South Orange.
Commonwealth at Montcls

Staten Island F. c. at South Orange.
Commonwealth at Montclar
Everything is in readiness for the
opening of the third annual tournament
for the Amateur League cup tonlor-
row. All the six league baseball teams
that are to contest for the trophy this
season have completed their prelim-
mary practice.
Perhaps the most important reason
for all is the fact that the South Or
ange Field Club has now won two
straight legs on the cup and needs
only one more victory to own the
trophy permanently. Other clubs in
the league have felt that the only way
to stop South Oranges winning career
was to do all they could to strengthen
their squads. This all the organiza-
tions claim to have accomplished after
the most active recruiting work In
years.
In seeking new material Montclair
Athletic Club, Ehglewood Field Club,
Staten Island Field Club and the Cres-
cent Athletic Club have, as usual,
turned to the ranks of the college
stars.
Another element of interest is the adj
vent of the Commonwealth Club of
Upper Montclair in the tournament,
bringing the series back to the six
team race that prevailed for years I'm
til the New York Athletic Club with
drew in 1910.

The case of Mrs. Vermilya. the
Chicago woman accused of being
a "pepper-box Borgia," has fea-
lures that call to mind some of
the famous cases in the annals of
Icriminology.
The fine cunning that the use
of the pepper box charged with
arsenic bespeaks and the obsession
lof the accused in regard to
Icorpses-her morbid love of see
ing and handling the dead-are
features of the case that make IL
of particular interest to the Grim
inologist.
Passing over the case of Luz
crezia Borgia, the much aligned
italian lady whose character has
recently been patched up by the
her propensity for poisoning folks,
we find in criminal annals many
cases that go to substantiate the
assertion of LON broso, the great
italian criminologist, that though
females born criminals are fewer
than male they are often much
more ferocious."
History has recorded the
mingled cruelty and lust of wom-
en- who have enjoyed royal or pop
lular power" he says.
"Amestris, to revenge herself
on rival, begged Xerxes to hand
over to her the rivals mother,
whose breasts, ears, lips and
tongue she cut off and threw to
the dogs, after which she sent the
mutilated woman home.
"Parysatis, the mother of Ar
ItaXerXes, caused the mother and
sister of rival to be buried alive,
while the rival herself she ordered
to be cut to pieces.
Taxi, the mistress of the En-
peror Cheon-Sin, plunged him into
vicious excuses, and when a rival
appeared on the scene she had her
killed and sent the body, cut into
pieces, to the murdered woman's
father, whom she also caused to
be- assassinated.
IN. R., case described by OF
tolenghi, was thief, a corrupter
,of youth, a blackmailer, and all
this at the age of II. When only
IL she robbed her father. At Is
she fled from home with a lover
whom she left almost at once for
a vicious career. She was extreme
lily vindictive-on one occasion she
conceived such violent hatred
for a rival that, enticing her into
cave, she poisoned her coffee
and thus caused her death"
Lombroso Is merciless in his
analysis of the feminine traits.
What is the explanation" he
asks. I'VE have seen that the
normal woman is naturally less
sensitive to pain than a man and
