The American Sporting Spirit.


"'Sport' has become German
word" says a Dresden letter. 1--WE
borrowed it from our English speaking
friends when we began TO follow their
example in regard to the various
healthful pastimes which come under
that name. AS we advanced the word
became so we'll known that it ceased
to be foreign and finally it crept-no,
it golfed, cycled, tennised, footballed
and baseballed-into our vocabulary.
We still lack the spirit which goes with
it in America. Last summer we saw
in New York a great thoroughfare
made impossible by throng Of thou
sands Of men and boys. We thought
we had come to the edge Of riotous
demonstration. But the multitude had
assembled only to hear or see by show
cards the result of game Of baseball.
Similar crowds, we heard, were assem-
bled at the same time in other parts Of
the city, and at the scene of the con-
test over 10000 people had paid 2 to
20 marks to see the sport. We may
have the word, but still lack that sp1r-
it."-New York Tribune.

SELECT CULLINCS
Savinu the Criminals.

Henry Carter in the Worlds Work
tells Of some work done by the Parting
of the Ways home. established two
years ago In Chicago.
When a prisoner whose conduct mas
indicated that he is not hopeless is dis
charged from the Bridewell, Super1n-
tendent John L. Whitman gives him
besides the inevitable nickel card OF
introduction to Mr.. Mcbride and d1-
rections for reaching the home. When
he arrives at the Parting Of the Ways,
Mcbride shakes hands and says: Il
will feed you, sleep you, clothe you
and get you a job, and it won't cost
you a cent After your first pay day
If you do not care to accept charity
and really want to show your apprec1a-
ton Of the home you may settle with 1t
at the rate of Is cents a meal and bed"
In the old days more than 40 per cent
of the discharged prisoners found their
way back to Jail simply because after
being broken by their prison expert
ence they were not fitted to take up the
battle for existence on the outside.
Since the Establishment OF the home,
however, this percentage has been re-
duced by more than half.

FIGHT ON WESTERN
Rates IS BEGUN

Chicago.-A gigantic struggle be-
tween every railroad operating in the
western part of the country, scores
of commercial organizations and thou
sands of shippers In cities and towns
throughout the west began in Chicago
Monday at a hearing before George
N. Brown, chief examiner of the Inter
state Commerce Commission. The is
sue, which involves millions in freight
rates, is whether the roads shall be
permitted to put into effect on Feb
ruary Is next long list of changes
in what is known as the western
freight classification.
It is charged that the rail carriers,
by shifting hundreds of classifications,
are seeking to achieve the same re-
suits, so far as advancing freight rates
are concerned, that they attempted
to obtain in the big freight rate pro-
ceeding decided adversely to them by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
year ago.

DR.. John Fremont Hill of Maine, the
new chairman Of the Republican ma
tiOnal committee, has been the acting
head Of that body since Frank NJ
Hitchcock retired to enter the cabinet
Of President Taft as postmaster gen
eral. He has long been prominent in
the political activities Of the Pine Tree
State, having twice been elected gov
ernor as we'll as serving in both
branches of the legislature.
The new chairman is a native of
Maine and has just passed his fifty
sixth birthday. Though a graduate of
two medical colleges. he has devoted
little time to the practice Of medicine
For more than thirty years he has been
engaged in the publishing business, in
which he acquired large fortune. He
is also largely interested in electric
railroad development and in various
industrial and financial enterprises in
his native state. His home in Augusta
is considered one of the finest in Maine

a Political Possibility,

The United States senate may choose
the next president Of the United
States. If that should occur the per-
son selected will be, in all probability,
the man nominated for vice president
by the Republican national convention,
as the Republicans have a majority
in the senate. A popular third ticket
in the field next year, with strength
to carry enough states to prevent an
election by a majority of the electoral
college, would bring about such a re-
suit. When no candidate receives a
majority Of the electors the choice
devolves upon the house Of representa-
tives. but the house, in spite of the
large Democratic majority Of members,
could not elect a president, because
neither party has a majority Of the
states by delegations. Then the vice
president would become president, and
he would be chosen by the senate

The Actor In China.

IF the new regime in China sue
ceeds in abolishing class distinction in
civil administration it will have ac-
complished a difficult task. Hitherto
three classes of population have been
esteemed by the Chinese Lowest Of
the low" these being actors, BARRIERS
and chiropodists. These and their
children are barred from becoming
mandarins. Their grandsons, accord
ing to the letter Of the law, are per-
mitted to hold government posts, but
this permission has seldom been grant
ed. Some years ago a grandson Of
Cheng Chang Keng, the most famous
Picking actor in his day, was appointed
one Of the secretaries Of the Chinese
legation in Berlin. The appointment
aroused a storm Of protest among Off
cial circles in China and but for the
support Of the empress dowager would
have been revoked.-London Chronicle.

Lincoln Cents,

II have discovered" says a person of
artistic bent, "a pleasing thing about
the new Lincoln pennies-they increase
in beauty with age. This new penny
has a rather wide faced rim, whose
edge rises on either side considerably
above the face Of the coin. This rim,
as l understand, makes it a coin diff
cult to stack, but as the coin grows
old in use that wide rim helps greatly
its artistic appearance. The deep
sunken parts Of the face, not subject
ed to rubbing and wear, darken with
age, while the embossed raised parts
keep bright with wear Take a Lin
coin penny that has been compare
lively long in circulation and you will
find In 1t the characteristics I have
described to you, particularly on the
side showing the Lincoln bust''-New

DEVELOP ING

Plans for the re-establishment of
racing in Lake and Porter counties
are now being actively pushed by the
Gary, Hammond, East Chicago and
Chicago promoters mixed in the deal.
Whether the racing is scheduled to be-
gin as soon as Governor Marshall goes
out of office the first of the year re-
mains to be seen.
Near A. r. knotts' Farm.
The palmy days of Roby and
Forsyth are to be revived by the old
crowd. Advantage of the state law
which permits racing 80 days in each
county will permit of a sixty-day cir
cult in this part of the state by having
tracks in Lake and Porter counties.
One track, it is said. will be at
Porter near Attorney A. +. Knots
farm and summer resort at Mineral
Springs. Just where the-Lake county
track is to be cannot be learned but
Roby or Black Oak in southwest Gary.
A conference was held the other day
