OXFORD STICKS TO GREEK
Victory for Helienists When congreaa- tion and Not convocation Declines
 to Make Language Optional


 Humanity is not dead after all. OK ford sticks to Greek. It is a great vic. tory for the Hellenists, for it was con gregation and not convocation which declined to make Greek optional for all. No one can say that the country parsons did it, or that expert opinion all those who are actively concerned In running the university, were in fa- yor of the change and overborne by outside reaction brought up for the purpose. Greek must have equal rights with Latin The ordinary un- dergraduate should be made to know something of both and if he Is to be allowed to do with only one, Greek must have as good chance of being taken as Latin. This, as Prof. Gilbert Murray says, will save Greek at the public schools. For the specialist, the mathematical or science man, we have always been willing to let him off Greek; though in our judgment 1t will generally be better. for him if he Is not let off.-Saturday Review.

MT. Silas Pikweed steps into the long corridor of the Upthere building. He gazes at the row of elevator gates, squinting with some amazement at their iron bars. He glances apprehen- sively at the elevator starter, who, with star on breast and brass buttons on his uniform, is an imposing sight.

 "Yes-14s5,' answers the starter quickly.

4 Play Ball for John Bull.

! Play Ball for John Bull.
In spite of all our extra effort and
the fact that my salary had been
raised to $500, the Athletics did not
succeed in landing the championships
In the season Of 1874, or even in So
curing second place. The, Bostons
were again victorious and the Mutuals
OF New York followed them, this be-
ing the first time since the Professional
league was organized that the latter
club had climbed to such height up
the baseball ladder. Our disappoint.
ment was somewhat lessened by the
fact that although we were obliged to
remain in third place, our Philadel.
'phia rivals fell to fourth. The Chica.
go White Stockings, of whom such
great things were expected, could get
no higher than fifth.
Well, we were getting used to dis.
appointment, but l want to say to you
right here that something happened
that season that stung me to the bit

one of the biggest troubles that had
ever had put up to me. was SO
fused over it that l didn't eat or
sleep naturally for month, and final
ly went to our manager and told him
I'd about made up my mind to quit
the game. Gee, but it was relief to
have him call me blasted fool and
tell me that my salary for the next
season would be $500.
Once again the Bostons' splendid
team work had given them the vic
tory. They had played 60 games that
were counted as championship con-
tests, had won 43 of them and had lost
but II. l don't see how any fan can
look at that record and keep his seat.
The Athletics played 81 record
games that season, 81 to our credit
and 21 lost.
That season of 1874 brought the big.
gest boom in baseball that ever struck
the earth. Professional, semi-profes.
sional and amateur clubs sprung up
everywhere, and the interest in the
game was at white heat. Baseball
certainly had become the national
pastime, and the time had come when
missionaries were to be sent to set
forth the glories of the game on for
eign soil. The first to do business in
that line was the club of which was
q member, and our companion team
was the champion Bostons. 1t was
arranged that we should go over to
England on sort of campaign of ed
ucatlon-Ato show the cricket fans over
there that the Americans had better
game than theirs.
OF course was tickled to death to
tumble into srSp Of this kind. The
only regret had was that 1t would
take me out Of sight OF the young lady
who had taken first place in my af-
