The pressure upon the administration
from people In the neighborhood OF Boston,
who object to the playing of base ball on
the military reservation at Fort Banks
Mass, has been too much to withstand
Up to within a week or two the War de-
partment has successfully resisted the
influences which have been exercised on
members Of congress and the president in
order to bring about the prohibition of this
diversion at Fort Banks. Hitherto the
War department has taken the position
that the general public could easily refrain
from attending base ball game held on
military reservation and that there was
always abundant opportunity for people
to avoid being shocked by any departure
from the observance of Sunday not in ac-
cordance with their ideas. Lately the
activity on the part of the New England
critics has been renewed with considerable
fervor of expression. 1t was asserted that
the Sunday base ball games at Fort Banks
constituted menace to the dignity, and
presumably the morals of the civilian COM
munity. Care had been taken at that post
to see that the games were not in any way
a disturbance of the day or an intrusion
upon the quiet of those in the nelghbor-
hood of the reservation. Now, 1t has been
decided that the playing OF base ball at
Fort Banks, at least, shall be suspended
until further orders"

Out Quicly and Cheap.
There were in Augustan Rome es-
tablished publishing houses which not
only turned out large numbers Of
books. but many editions Of them and
at an incredibly small price That
their arrangements were businesslike
may be Inferred from the testimony
of Horace He relates that when an
author failed to please the metropolis
the publishers shipped the entire edi
ton of his works TO the provinces. and
II he still failed as a writer they made
arrangements to bring them back again
and sell them as paper to the pastry
and spice shops
One great firm in Rome had over
1000 trained slave copyists. and their
work was swift and cheap. for Mar
tial writes that they had ready an edi-
ton of thousand copies OF his "Epi.
grams" In just one hour. to be sold at
10 cents copy. The exceedingly
large reading public which all this In.
dicates must have been many years In
growing. and one may assume that
Rome had long been n city Of readers.
Atticus. the publisher Of Cicero. had a
great many modern methods in the
conduct OF his business. and the fact
that Caesars Commentaries were
very quickly dispatched to the out
posts OF civilization shows that the
machinery OF distribution was also
well organized. Thus we may con-
clude that the advertising and public
lily department was in good shape

in the process. This peculiar little
rodent Is black and white and has
pink eyes. Its chief popularity is that
at time when baby mice OF other
species are just beginning to move
about this terpsichorean mouse is al
ready able to waltz.
Put together. these japanese dane
irg mice will waltz in couples. and at
times more than two will join In a
