new FENCING
RULES FRAMED

AS a result of the experience gain
ed by our American swordsmen in
the recent Olympic meet at Stock
holm. rules governing fencing in this
country have just undergone changes
OF the most radical character in years
The recommendation of the men who
made close study of European meth
DDS met with such high favor among
the members of the controlling body
here that almost without exception
they were adopted unanimously at the
annual meeting of the Amateur Fenc-
ers' League of America in New York
recently.
The action of the league eliminates
practically all the salient points of
difference that have existed between
the American code and the interna-
tional rules that governed the COM
petition at the Olympic gaines. 1t is
practically an embodiment of the for
eign regulations. Sc

ants will have to hold the strip until
one or the other has gained a total of
five touches: Under the old rules
a majority of seven touches decided
0Gut. In addition the Olympic
scoring system was adopted. whereby
ties in the number of matches won
are settled not by a series of fence
off bouts, but by comparison of the
aggregate number of touches made
throughout the tournament. Score
boards at all tournaments will be
compulsory hereafter. The custom OF

The Expanderst faced the task Of
taking three straight to tie with the
leaders in the fnaf match of the
series. They have been going strong
OF late, and fully believed that they
could turn, the TRICK. but the Cherries,
playing safe, tooK advantage of their
opponents over anxiety, getting the
first game and the championship after
a hard fight. The next two were
easy, the Expanders- having nothing
to win, and losing interest. Once dur
ing the season the Expanders caught
the Cherries on an off night, and ad-
ministered a three-straight defeat, so
they had some grounds for believing
that they could turn the same trick
last night. At that, the Expanders
rolled way below their usual form. as
the scores Will testify.
For the Cherries, Swain was high
man with 213,a and RaSeman high
average, 176. Haney was high score
for the losers with 209, and high aver
age, 1876. He rolled a fine game.

Our prosperity, our history. the great

THE great problems of past ages were
problems OF deficit. Our problems are
problems of surplus. In the old days

Absurd would be Mr. Shaw's assertion
that there is so much sham about So
clety' if by reference to society he had
in mind the general and proper meaning
of the word as given in ''Webster's Die
tionary," namely. the more cultivated
portion OF any community in its social
relations and influence The natural as
sumption is. however, that he intended
this term to include merely that class
domiciled in our social and commercial
centers commonly known as the -four

It is undoubtedly true that the morals
OF many women lin society have become
so warped by false social standards that
they have permitted social and material
ambition and lust to overshadow their
true motherhood instinct to such an ex-
tent that they neglect proper considera-
ton of the men into whose hands they
give the future happiness of their daugh-
ters. The imputation. however. that the
average American mother would wit
tingly be guilty of such neglect. is with
out the least foundation in fact. No
love can compare with a mothers love,
and her daughters happiness. both pres
ent and prospective, is ever her one and
only consideration. A true mothers hap
piness is dependent. in a great measure,
upon that of her children, and it is alb
surd to say that any American mother
would willingly encourage her daughter
in marriage without first taking every
precaution to the end that the man was
one that would make her happy, for
the mothers negligence in this respect
might not only result in the unhappiness
OF her daughter, but jeopardize her own
future happiness as well.
Personal attraction of woman to man
is the divine gift of all womankind. Were
1t not thus, the nations of the earth
would soon depopulate and this fruitful
land revert to a barren waste. Attract
is synonymous with entice, and It Is
under a custom which renders 1t proper
for the man only to make advances with
matrimonial intent, that any question is
raised as to the propriety of American
girls enticing men into marriage. So

Bernard Shaw presents only one side Of
the question, and that the worst He
may and may not believe what he writes,
but his is a dangerous philosophy for
the young, the unthinking, or the unrea-
soning mind. for It depicts in a plausible.
attractive, and insiduOus way what really
exists but which il practiced would dis
rupt homes and result in social chaos.
Everyone knows that there are shams
in all walks of life, that among those
whose wealth enables them to crafty

companions of ennui and idleness, that
the women of this class, having moth
ing to do but have their own way, care
FULLY weave a web around the most desir-
able men, for unless they have enough
money to lift a poor man up to their
financial footing and are willing to make
him Independent, they are not likely to
leave luxury for the privations that lie
before them and be satisfied with love
and proverty. These women are the
exception. A woman of the great middle
class does not consider money when
she loves. Nothing affects her loyalty
as long as she has confidence in the OBJ
ject Of her affection and the idea Of en-
ticing a man into matrimony is as abhor-
rent as marrying for money. Mothers
Of this class are deeply interested in
the future of their daughters and do
not exhibit them on the bargain counter.
Naturally they are anxious for them to
get good husbands, but they do not offer
them for sale to the highest bidder.
Mr.. Shaw appeals to the morbidity
that is always looking for the speck on

ivory. the rift within the lutte" He digs
up unwholesome truths and makes them
haunting ghosts to disturb the peace and
harmony of existing conditions; he
fiaunts depravity in the face of respect

deny it?'
There are low, vicious, and immoral
people in all walks Of life, but they are
the small minority. and while 1t Is i'm
possible to weed out evil completely, the
trend Of public opinion is reflected in de-
termined official effort to curb and re-
press all forms of depravity. While
Mr.. Shaw's writings present the worst
phase of pictured life, the rebuttal of his
argument saves the situation when it is
proven that the world is steadily sdvanc-
