The first game Of bail was an Aztee
game and it was played somewhere
on the mesas OF Mexico long be-
fore the Spanlards arrived in their
search FOR gold.
The sort Of ball that the Aztecs
played was very popular with the pub
lie. just as tie big league draws at
tention today. In II game they used
a ball of rubber or elestic rosin and
in another sort Of contest those made
of gold.
The ancient Aztec game was called
totoloque and was played In a court
known as a tlachco. not 50 large as the
present day diamond. The players
were clothed only in a maxtlat1 or
girdle around the loins.
There were pitchers. but no catchers.
and the helders were few. When
pitched the ball was struck by an up
ward movement Of the thigh or elbow.

struck the sphere. In order TO count.
had 10 pass through a hole In one or
several stone disks hanging just in front
| OF the wall II the court. The feat OF
! bunting that ball with the thigh and
sending il through one OF those holes
required a great Zeal OF skill, as might
be imagined. Agility was one OF the
| prime requisites Of an Aztec big
Lacquer. Any player touching the ball
with the hand lost a point.
The game with the geld balls was a
favorite OF Montezuma. II Is said that
when Cortez staged his little historical
skit known as the conquest OF Mexico
and took Montezuma prisoner the royal
! captive spent a great deal OF his time
in durance playing the game with gold
balls. He often challenged the Spanish
general TO a contest.
These yellow pills were thrown Al
targets OF the same precious metal
History shows that Montezuma had

have been in fast company had h'
delayed the date Of his birth a few
centuries. He could lean them againS'

larity. The Spaniards never eoult

sta ntfnople. signed the 2eth October.
1898 for the free navigation Of the

THE POINT AT ISSUE

And now as to Japan and China. Il
is In these countries that the gist of
the whole disturbance lies. 1t was
largely for access to their borders that
the great ditch was built. Ii Is in
these lands that the traders of all ma
tons have looked for their future ac-
t~ivities. But al the hour Of opening
of the ditch approaches how different
the situation from that which once
was dreamed. Japan now has her
W ships penetrating to every port in
the orient and reaching out to pracfi-
cally every important harbor on the
globe.
Japan also plants her credit banks
in the heart of China, In the midst Of
San Francisco. New York and London.
And. 10 cap the arch of her intentions,
she bestows a bounty of 100000 upon
every native mail ship that makes
round trip voyages 10 any country OF
magnitude.
Since Europe has gained such a grip
on South American trade and its pros
poets are big for future growth it is
only natural that the nations over the
sea will stick together where their
trade is ie~opardized by any act Of the
United States. especially as In tile case
in dispute at the present time. whore
this country will subsidize It's ships
that is. collect toll from them on n
end OF the canal and pay il back on
the other end.

will no doubt remain If the question OF
