While ice hockey, the great Cana
dian game, is probably the fastest OF
all sports, still there are few dull
moments in the game and these could
be eradicated with single change in
the present rules. The uninteresting
moments are those in which the OPP
posing centers face or at the start
OF the game and following each goal.
The present rules have 1t that the

up all spread out across the ice with
the opposing centers having : their
sticks close together 20 nook the puck

be TO have all OF the opposing players

SUCH AN UNUSUAL REQUEST

From Everybodys Magazine;
 It is the custom for the stage manager of all travelling theatrical companies to go to the theatre immediately upon the companys arrival In town and lay out on sheet ot paper list of the dressing rooms to be assigned to the various mem bers of the company.
 The stage manager of this particular company repaired to the "opry house" as soon as the troupe had landed in town. He made inquiry of an old man whom he found sweeping off the stage and who proved to be the manager about the number of dressing rooms, so that he could lay out the list for the actors.
 we have two dressing rooms,'' said the old man.
 But" said the stage manager. "I have star and 30 ladies and gentlemen in my company. How can I put them in two rooms?"
 We'll replied the old man. you can put the star in the little room and the 30 people in the big room" You don't seem to understand" said the stage manager. Besides the star | there are 30 men and women. How can 1 they dress together?" What's the matter?" asked the old man. "Ain't they speakin?'

UNDERWOOD FILLS THIS PRE-
 SCRIPTION

From the Atlanta Constitution.
 At the recent meeting of the democratic state executive committee of New Yorl, his keynote speech, We should elect safe and sane candidates, adopt a safe affd sane platform and make the tariff the paramount issue"
 Oscar Underwood comes nearer fulfill ing in every detail that prescription foI party success than any candidate now or the horizon.
 He is safe and sane. He does not pursue phantoms, keeps his feet on the ground and sfowns upon blue sky theories of 20 litical economy.
 With the tariff as the paramount issue, Underwood embodies the democartic atti- tude in that respect. since his name and the insignia of his leadership are stamped upon every schedule with which the party must appeal to the nation. He stands in the same relation toward the country wide demand for tariff revision that the twice victorious Mckinley stood toward the republican policy of high protection.
 The candidate who triumphs at Balti- more as well as the nominee who wins in the presidential election must carry New York state
 The requirements outlined by New York's chairman of it's executive commit tee fit oscar Underwood with tailor-made precision.

Panama Canal Tolls

There are many who regard the in- come of the Panama canal as of sec ondary importance. Those who take this view say the canal should be handled in way that will increase our commerce. There is but one way to do this-we must discriminate in favor of our own ships. If treaty stipulations, say these people, compel us to treat all vessels alike, no law or treaty can prevent us from refund ing tolls to American ships.
 And then there is another burning question. "If," says the Philadelphia Inquirer, i've want to hand the con- trol of the canal over to transconti- mental railroads, by all means let us charge toll upon all ships engaged in trade between the Atlantic and Pacific ports of the United States. If we wish, on the other hand, to provide for in dependent steamship service, let us prohibit the railroads from operating steamships through the canal and make the tolls free"
 These are two questions that Con- gress is struggling with, and they are both full of difficulties. How to in- crease the commerce of the United States, and how to keep the transcon- tinental railroads from monopolizing traffic in the canal, are each hard problems, and an easy solution of either is not in sight.
