The Earlier Yachts,

Yachting was but little INDUCED in
until about 100 years ago. Owing to-
the presence in British waters Of the
pirate cutters sailing small vessels out
OF sight of land was attended with
considerable risk and most of the ear
lier yachts carried brass cannon The
yachts built in England at the begin
ming of the last century were either
on the lines of revenue cutters or
smugglerS. The best of them were
built by Charles White. who would.
it is said. often lay down a couple of
clippers together. n for the govern
ment and the other as a smuggler. He
would thus be able to obtain n pre-
MUM from the government for max
ing the revenue cutter the faster ves-
sci of the two.

Waterproofinq Wooden,

A simple way to make wooden gar
ments waterproof is given in La Terre
Vaudoise. 1T was told to the editor
by an old forester:
Have two small tubs. In each put
eight or nine quarts of rainwater. In
one dissolve 1870 grains Of alum and in
the other the same weight of acetate
of lead. When dissolved pour one into
the other. y white p%recilitnte will

Not more laws. but the enforcement

learning the lesson.

Great credit must be given to Percy
Haughton. head coach of the Harvard
eleven. for the showing Of the team
this season. While it must be admit
ted that lsaughton was fortunate in
having many veterans left from last
years team. it was his splendid idea Of
the opportunities that the new rules
offered that enabled the Crimson elev-
en- to win the eastern football cham
pionship. Every day during practice
three squads could be seen ut work on
the new rules. SO good were Haugh-
tons second and third teams that the
head coach said several times that he
could have won the championship
with No. 2 or 3: With the wealth of
material for the 1911 team on hand
Harvard men think that they will cap
ture the iaurels next year.

The Battling Pursuit.

Pull off. put over or push through.
Discover, execute or write,
Attack or vanquish in a fight.
What can l aid or start or stop,
Advance or hinder, lift or drop,
That ] may soon be loafing round
On flames eternal camping ground?
I cannot grab a sword and fight,
Because there are no wars In sight.
Search for the pole I need not press
That's been discovered more or less.
1t useless is to rise and soar,
For that's been done. I find, before.
So how car I get in on the game
And win a small degree Of fame?
I can't a comet find or lose
They're getting common as old shoes.
I can't strike Billy Patterson
Or make the Kelley motor run.
! cannot write Bill Shakespeare's plays
Or even start the blue glass rag
Or sources of the Nile pursue
What is there left for me to do?

Or tear q lion limb from limb.

PERT PARAGRAPHS.

A DIVERSITY may be y good thing,
but when misfortune comes to us
IN the guise Of prosperity you can hear
us rejoice a mile away.
III you aren't in the procession YOU
are either above or below the average.
The MAJ who doesn't know is

knowledge hat he hasn't got.
The kind of hat a man wears isn't

He laughs best who laughs when he

There is often a %perceptible connec
ton between hot air and cold feet.
Trying to make connections with a
belated train Of thought is as exas-
perating as having Christmas weather

AS long as they say nothing about

1t is better to have an excuse with
out any use for it than to have a use
without any Xcu for it.

Maher to Become a Trainer.


The present racing season will see
the end of Danny Maher as a leading
figure in the saddle on English racing
tracks on the flat.
He cannot do less than 1876 pounds,
and this is almost a prohibitive weight
for any man who aspires to be a lead
ing jockey in England. The English
racing track will. however. continue
to know him as a trainer, and occa-
sionally he may be see in the saddle
in hurdle races and steeplechases.
For some time he has been looking
out for favorable training quarters in
Ireland where be will combine the
breeding Of high class thoroughbreds
with training horses for some Of the
owners who have so long and faith
fully patronized him for his skill and
integrity as a jockey.
He is at the moment in negotiation
for the stables on the Curragh. in Coun-
ty Kildare. which were at one time &C.
cupied by Richard Croker. But if the
deal does not 80 through he means to
build an establishment of his own
near Nenagh. in Tipperary.
1t is computed that at the end of the
present racing season Maher will be
/ 100000 strong at his bankers. so
there can be no question of monetary
considerations to interfere with his
scheme.

New Style Billiard Table.

New York amateur billiard club
players are practicing on a new style
table which is 5 by 5 feet instead Of
the regulation size-9 by AZ. On the
new table balk line billiards are being
played, and the square form does
away with the long drive. so that
there is no advantage which rail is
selected by the player. 1t has upset
the play of some of the cracks and
puzzles them when angles and force
are considered. The three cushion
shot is very difficult to execute. and
simple caroms. single cushion shots.
draws and follows are about all the
style Of shots any one but an expert
can make. Another innovation is the
use Of two red balls and one cue ball
in some games. Each player uses the
same ball and SO eliminates very large
~ the safety play. This game has
been popular in Paris for several
years.

ANARCHY IN CHINA.
Bodies In theStreets and Famine

Rebellion. brigandage and anarchy
prevail in the western half of Kwang

troops have been fighting desperately
to crush the rebellion, which is of a
serious nature.
WI Rum, educated in Japan, is the
leader of the rivolt against the Man
ehu dynasty Brigand chief, the LUX
of Shuntak, is at the head of a horde
of outlaws whose object is robbery
and murder. These combined forces
have thrown themselves with fanatical
disregard of their own lives against
the troops, and since the outbreak a
great deal OF blood has been shed.
Official advices received at Hong
kong from Canton say bodies of slain
lie in the streets of the latter city; also
that famine prices are asked for food
stuffs and shops gene ally are closed
In the state of affairs there have been
few attempts to bury the dead and the
stencil from debomposed bodies fills
the ali. The situation is truly terri
BILE and prompt relief is an absolute

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.

The opponents of municipal owner
ship of the electric lights are striving to
prejudice the issue by relating in paid
advertisements the shortcomings and
the failures, due to Encouragement, in
a comparatively few of the communities
which have operated public utilities.
For each failure there may be cited
scores of successes, but these are never
mentioned, for obvious reason, by those
interested in and allied with private
ownership.
Next TO water, light is all important,
and whatever be the proposed better
ment of the water supply and the of
fered reduction Of the price of electric
lighting, is due to the agitation and to
the efforts of few citizens.
1t is now being suggested that the
proposed municipal ownership of the
electric lighting plant be postponed until
six years because the city, as asserted,
is not ready for any such undertaking,
but in the same breath it is urged that
the city should take over the water
works plant for the simple reason that
such action may be necessary to protect
the health of the people"
Could there be more glaring incon-
sistency?
If the city is not ready this year to
take the election light" is it in better
condition, financially, to absorb and con-
troll the waterworks
AS to the waterworks and the water
it can supply, all that can be done is now
being done towards the improvement OF
the water supply.
Ii may be recalled that the city and
the waterworks plant did recently enter
into compact whereby the water is to
be supplied direct from Red river in
stead Of the bayou, and for this inn
provement the city is pledged to pay its
part of the costs attending this change
in the source of the supply of water.
The Caucasian, now as it has in the
past, favors the municipal ownership of
the public utilities, water and lights. and
is arm in the belief that such utilities
can be managed satisfactorily and for
the good Of the people, who should be
supplied through municipal ownership,
with water and lights at or about cost.
Il should be sufficient to say that the
citizens Of Shreveport who are not in
ferested in these privately owned plants,
viii not be nisled BY any statement or
report antagonistic to municipal owner
ship, especially when such statements OF
reports are suggested by the interests
antagonistic 10 municipal ownership OF
niihlic utilities.
