ALL But TWO
GAMES CANCELLED
Eight Amateur Leagues Postpone
Contests To-day-Northern and
Sunday School to Play,

In all but two amateur leagues, games
scheduled for to-day have been post
poned, out OF respect for the sensational
work Of the Nationals, and in honor OF
the return of that team. The EorJEerH
and Sunday School being the only leagues
asking to be allowed 10 play.
The Capital City League is still a
league. notwithstanding the repeated ef-
forts to disband this circuit.
At the meeting Of the amateur commits
sion last night in Spaldipg's store, at least
seven motions were made that would
have disrupted this~ organization, but
one and all failed to pass muster.
This was about the most important mat
ter brought up at the meeting, and after
an hour Of wasted energy. the case stood
Just where It did a week ago. The Capt.
tai City League is still a league
Amateur Day was again discussed,
this time with the originator of the idea,
Boss Griffith, Of the Climbers, being pres
eRt at the meeting. Manager Grlflth
was greeted with a burst OF cheers upon
entering the store, and was congratulated
by all upon the great work OF the WASH
ington baseball club.
The constitutions have arrived, and may
be had OF Manager Klns, of Spalding's
store any time. They are printed In
book form, Of about thirty pages, aad

HOUSE BALL TEAMS

Few Members Who Are in Chicago
VIII Be Back Here for
the Contest.

Notwithstanding the fact that several
members OF the Republican baseball
team OF the House have gone to Chi
cago for the convention, Representative
c. B. Miller of Kansas. captain and
pitcher, is getting some good practice out
Of other members OF the team. He said
last. night that the men were doing
their twenty miles a day." and that the
game at American League Park next
Saturday with the Democratic members
Of the House for the beneit Of the play
grounds and Boy Scouts OF the District
would be some game"
Among the Republican players who
have betaken themselves to the Windy
City is Representative Kendall OF Iowa,
who is TO nominate Senator Cummins
for the Presidency. Others who are at
tending the convention are Representa-
tives Slemp Of Virginia and Porter of
Pennsylvania. Mr.. Miller said that he
expected all would be here in time for
the game next Saturday.
The Democrats, under command Of
Capt. Representative Webb OF North
Carolina and Manager Representative
Reilly Of Connecticut are equally conf
dent that victory will be theirs in the
coming game.
Representative Miller is a strong sup
porter Of the public Fairgrounds and

Nations that Come Back.

Frun the New York Pres.
The principle in the life Of individuals
whether they be prize fighters, authors
or prophets, that once they have passed
their best they cannot repeat or come
back level with their former power on
achievement seems TO be reversed in the
case Of races, though it has been Gus
tomary to regard some of the nations of
Europe as having survived their great
ness, as II the course Of empire on its
westward way had touched them in Sc
quence and then passed on to fresher
soil and younger peoples, never TO re-
turn. Evidences ar( pow cropping up
among the supposedly efrete or exhaust
ed nations Of Europe and Asia to prove
that when decadence has overtaken an
old civilization It is as II from its very
decay, as in the lower orders Of nature,
a rich soil were created out OF which
should spring, in due season, the vital
seeds of regeneration.
Italy is a case in point France IS an
other; and even Spain is beginning to
! show unmistakable symptoms Of a re-
Nuisance. And this is not all. For sew
eral decades Europe. as It looked toward
Asia has comforted itself with the
thought, so sptly phrased by Matthew
Arnold, that the East bowed low before
the blast in patient, deep disdain. She
let the legtons thunder past, then turned
TO thought again" But the East no
longer bows: Japan came up with a rush
out of a dead past TO take her place in
the front rank OF modern nations, and
China, asleep for a thousand years in a
senile decay, has astonished the world by
the quickest awakening in history
People who have visited Spain in re-
cent years are united In their various
impressions OF the revitaIized character
Of Spanish institutions and the Spanish
race. Thrown back upon themselves and
concentrated after the loss OF their en-
pire In South America and the final hu-
initiation OF Thea NSpanish-American war
Of 1885, the people OF Spain, old histor-
ically, but still young ethnically, are de-
yeloptng new and more vigorous life
The most recent instance Of this. re-
awakening is found in the active new
educational movement. less striking but
quietly more potent than military dem
onstrations or political upheavals With
the aid Of government subsidies hun
dreds Of Spanish students are now in
residence in foreign universities and
technical schools and many thousands
more, under the oversight Of the govern
ment, are prosecuting the same kind OF
studies in the various provincial SCHOOLS
and colleges Of Spain. The new and
vigorously practical education Is in the
interest Of national development, and
thus the work Of the schools and COL
leges and OF the students sent abroad
Is imbued with the flavor of construc-
tive patriotism.

A world-famous curiosity Is about to
disappear at Leipzig. This is Auerbac's
cellar or drinking place, which owes it's
special celebrity TO the fact that Goethe
located IN it the scene IN Faust In
which Mephistopheles. standing upon q
wine cast, takes his hight into space, to
the stupefaction Of the Drinkers
The old building in which the cellar is
found was built by Dr.. Stromer d'Auer-

worthy doctor began by putting there
the wine which he intended for hfs own
use Later, as the wine was good, he
conceived the idea OF selling II. aad IN
this way was established the tavern TO
which his name has since been attached.
From the earliest years OF the seven
teenth century legend placed in this cellar
the famous adventure OF Faust and
Mephistopheles. Goethe, studying at
Leipzig, from Ias5 to i76s. frequented the
cellar and there talked with friends Of

Golf Surely Has Features

Now that summer has really arrived
goIf is the subject Of conversation among
the levers Of that sport. Possibly there
Is no game In the world that offers q
greater diversity OF play than golf. There
Is but one game OF baseball, and the
national game is the same m Cuba and
the Philippines as It is in the United
States The rSllage team of the back
woods plays the game the same as the
worlds champions, with OF course the
natural difference that one might expect
IN the quality Of the play. Billiards are
billiards the world over, whether II Is
eighteen-inch balk or three-cushion
carom. Pool offers considerable diversity.
but to a great many people pool does not
appeal at all, ofttimes because Of the un-
pleasant surroundings
Football differs materially from several
years ago. but, save for the class, there
Is not much difference between the game
as played BY Yale in the East and Michi-
gan In the West. and Bowdoin up IN
Maine or Sewanee down South. Yost and
other great masters have introduced new
wrinkles that have spread all over the
country. yet the essentials are the same
as they were ten years ago.
OF course, with the true dyed-in-the-
wool golfer. the man who plays the
game scientifically and seriously and
whose name spells more or less fame
