HUMAN BURRS IN THE WORLD
Unwlse People Who Bore Thelr
Friends With Their Display Of
Lack Of Tact.

Do you ever encounter inquisitive
people who are really annoying-peo-
pie who have not the least interest
in your affairs, but simply want to
know" out OF idle curiosity2 A great
share Of Americas reputation for rude
ness may be laid entirely to the charge
of their rillng questions. Equally un-
desirable Is the person who confdes
her family troubles to all her friends.
paddock on the closet door where the
family skeleton turks, some women
shamelessly drag II out and parade
in the public eye.
The too.frlendly individual who runs
in at all hours without ringing and
offers her services upon every occa-
sion, and the woman who monopolizes
or tries TO monopolize all the time
and attention OF her friends Is like
wise to be avoided. "Dearie, II you
are thinking of going shopping this
week, let me know and III go with
you. Stop for me II you go to the
matinee on Wednesday"
It never occurs to them that their
company might not be appreciated.
But just as the burrs OF the field make
US appreciate the flowers more than
ever, so do the human burrs teach US
to rejoice In the pleasant, considerable,
sensible friends that fall to ones lot
for the latter outnumber the former
many, many times.-Exchange.

ht-iCS OF THE BRONZE AGE
Remarkable Find Of Prehistoric
Weapons and Ornaments Made In
karst Mountains.

remarkable find of prehistoric
weapons and ornaments has been
made in a cavern at st. Kanzion, in
tn Karst mountains, not far from
0Ablazia. The cavern, which is known
as the Gave of Flies" from the num-
Der of insects which, apparently breed
ing there, issue forth at certain times
of the year, Is subterranean cham
Der with a perpendicular depth OF
one hundred and fifty feet, the only
entrance to which Is by hole In the
roof 1t was recently explored by
some climbers with the help OF a long
rope ladder. A Roman helmet, dating
from the beginning of the Christian
era, which the owner had apparently
dropped down the hole, was first
found. Encouraged by this the I'M
perial museum sent men to dig into
the earth and stones which have fall
len from the roof and sides and form
the floor of the cavern, and at g. depth
of three feet they discovered over a
thousand articles of bronze, including
two hundred lance heads, number Of
swords, axes, clasps and vessels. The
last named had all been burned
through by fire. The date OF the arti-
Giles is estimated at about 1000 b. G.
Since 1t appears impossible that men
In the bronze age should have lived at
the bottom of such a deep and mac
eessible cavern archaeologists believe
the weapons and vessels must have
been thrown down the hole as a sacri-
fee to some subteranean deity.-Vien-

Arsenic Found in Vegetables.
Arsenic has been found as normal
constituent in man and animals, and
now Drs. Jadin and Astrug, two
French biologists, show that 1t may be
derived from edible plants and fruits.
They examined thirty-nine vegetable
substances, and obtained arsenic from
all, the quantities ranging from 0.03
part per million in the leek to 0.26
part per million in almonds and beans.
Other vegetable matters, containing
arsenic are the common cabbage, the
turnip, the potato. cultivated mush-

There at least in the cold solitude of

JACK JOHNSON IS

Chicago. Jan. 1o-That Jim Cor

York was the direct result Of the box
ing game being stopped In the eastern
metropolis was the answer of Jack
johnson to the criticism of the former
champion in g. recent article. The
champion also asserted that Corbett,
since his retirement from the ring, had
done more to hurt boxing than any
two other men now connected with the
game.
In the article which caused john
sons protest, Corbett asserted that the
negro champion 10 ''stalling." doesn't
want to fight and hat he Is fraid of
McVey. Langford and Jeanette. Cor
bett stated that Johnson's e%xorbitant
demands for large purses is proof
enough Of the fact that Jack wants
to hold on to the title as long as pos
sible. johnson claims Corbett is sore
because of the kidding he received aft
ed the Johnson Jeffries fight, when he
was criticized severely for saying that
Jeffries would win in a walk.
The champion said he would start
light training today at O'Connell's. He
intends to box a few rounds, besides
skipping the rope. punching the bag
and doing other gymnasiu mexercises.
He has signed for a weeks engagement

Count Way dc Vaya. Lord Abbott of

the title OF The Shepherd of the
Seas" because he spends his life and
wealth his talents and his strength
in ministering to poor emigrants seek

lands. A nan of lowlier birth, and
n bred amid scenes of squalor and
suffering might so spend his life with
out creating wonder that he should
seek to help those who are his equals
and intinlates.
Count dc Naya is one of the richest
and N of the most influential men in
hungary. This wealth he is using to
help the poor emigrants from his
country and from other countries. and
he has forsaken the ease and comforts
that his riches would bring to sail with

Fargo. N. D.. Jan. 1o.-sixty-six to
nothing. This tells the story Of the
first game Of the season played by
Fargo college with Concordia. Aside
ron the fact that 1t gave the fans
an opportunity to size up the situation
at the Hill school there was nothing
unusual or interesting about the game.
The college made the first basket
with the opening of the game and
rolled up a total of forty before the
half was over. In the second half the
second team was put in and they
brought the score up to sixty-six.
Twelve men played for the college in
different parts Of the game. and the
fact that the score constantly in

from which Coach Watkins will pick
the varsity five.

he will do some great work before

BROWN FIRST OF
OLD ONES TO QUIT
Question Arises As to How
Long Other standbys
wiu1ast

Philadelphia, Jan. 10.-Across the
country .hummed the startling infor-
nation q few days ago that .Mordecai
Brown, the great three-fingered pitch.
er Of the Cubs. wa to retire from
the national pasttnne.
At once this gave rise to the inter-
esting thought. how long will some OF
the present stellar twirlers last? When
will they retire and seek the seden-
tary pursuits Of business away from
the glamour Of the game? e
How much longer can Mathewson
last? How many more years has Ben
der? When will Cy Young quit? Can
Eddie Walsh go on forever? These are
the things that crowd ones thoughts
whenever the news comes humming
across the wires that some star has
sought retirement.
Plank Hears Call.
Eddie Plank, the dean of the Ath-
letic CORPS. says that he ha heard the
call Of time. Back in last season he
promised himself that he would work
for the worlds champions but one

Pleasant and round out his life as q

with the finish Of this season Plank
will have been twelve years a major

champions. His team mates say that

Of Mount Pleasant Is sincere. He will

better than for years past. If this be
true then Matty surely has q half
dozen years Of effective work left in
his brainy head and cunning wing.
Eddie Walsh. the man who has been
identified with the fortunes of the
Chicago White Sox for eight years:
the man who has pitched more games
young generation of boxmen: the man
who always bears the brunt Of Comis-
keys battles-how much longer can

How About Bender.

that he needed q weeks rest between

But he fooled the talent and the
Giants when he pitched the last game
Of the series with q few days rest,
and turned one Of the neatest tricks
Of the series. .,
Basing calculations on that form

New York Times: The illness of
Jim Sullivan. for years the fountain
head Of amateur athletics in this

Olympic team at Stockholm at heart,
not to say everybody who takes n
interest in athletics of the amateur
stripe. Jim has been in charge of the
A. A.. U. for some years. and. while
he is now blu secretary of the body.
it is his influence that is largely re-
sponsible in shaping its policies and
destinies. Sullivan sometimes has
made mistakes. but he has given his

amateur athletics and to keep the
stain of professionalism away from the
body in which he is such a central
figure.
