Talbot Heaves Discus.

Talbot Heaves Discus.
In. one of the field events there was
really a fine, performance. That was in
the discus throw. Lee Talbot, who
used to go to Mercersburg. Penn State
and Cornell threw the instrument al
most a foot farther than ii has ever
been heaved before. Besides winning the
discus throw. Talbot was by far the
best hammer thrower on the field, he
winning that event rather easily.
While the University of Illinois run
ners led in the one-mile championship
race for colleges nearly all the way, il
looked for a while as if Pennsylvania
would nose out the last runner on that
team Lippincott made a grand squirt to-
ward the end and did brilliant bit of
work. but the distance he had to make
up on a very fast man was TOO much.
The only relay race won by Pennsyl-
yania of the three for the collegiate
championship was the four miles. There
was no other team in the race that was
the equal Of the Red and Blue mile run
ners and they could probably have won
the event much more easily than they
did

II Found Relief In Practical JolSes
Upon the Clergy.
Some thirty odd years ago a young
man came to New York from England
q have forgotten his name, and for q
year or so he posed as a very ardent
churchman. He had a mania which
seemed to be the making Of trouble
for other people, with no particular
object except that and certainly with
no advantage to himself, as he very
naturally remained 'incog"
AS illustrative, he would send out a
hundred or more postal cards address.
ed to as many different plumbers in
New York, asking them TO call on a
certain day, at given hour, at the
residence of the Rev. Dr. Morgan Dix,
rector or Trinity church. Another
time it would be an army Of bakers,
and so on. On one OCCASION he sent in
vitations to a dozen Of the clergy to
dine with DR. DIX on a given date.
Imagine the good doctors consterna-
ton when his unexpected guests ar
rived:
One OF his bits of funny" work, in
which he used the name of the late
Bishop Jaggar. was as follows: DR..
Cornelius B. Swope was the vicar of
Trinity chapel, in Twenty-f1fth street,
ct the time, and DR. Horatio Potter the
bishop of New York. DR.. Dix had be-
come so exasperated as hardly to
know what to do, and one day he went
to consult DR.. Swope and to ask his
advice as to what could be done, tax
ing with him one OF the cards that he
had received. On looking at 1t DR..
Swope said:
"I recognize that handwriting be-
cause I received a card some time ago
La the same hand, which I have kept
Us curiosity"
This was the card:
Cincinnati, Ohio.
Dear Cornel-It Is runored out here that
you would like TO be a bishop. II this is
true please let me know at once. I have
great influence with Morg Dix and VIII
see old Potter about II, So
II you would like to be bishe
And with the bishops stand,
A miter on your forehead
And a crozier In your hand
please write me Immediately. Faithfully
yours THOMAS JAGGAR,
Bishop of Southern Ohio

The Third Hand.

How often the little things in life
make impressions that Iinger in our
memories long after the larger events
are forgotten. Several years ago l was
making n visit in a family where there
were several daughters. One of the
girls brought hat into the sewing
room one morning and prepared to
trim it. Before doing anything else
she took a hatpin and pinned the hat
firmly to her skirts at the knees, so
that she had both hands free and held
the ribbon and flowers in place with
her left hand while she sewed them
with her right.-Philadelph North
