One OF those two story cottages, as

Spanish life the special advantage OF

dropping tender nothings down through
the Stats OF the shutter to some maiden
lurking within
The nothngs were so tender that you
could not hear them drop. and, besides,
they were Spanish nothings, and 1t
would not have served any purpose for
the stranger to listen for them. Once
afterward we saw the national court

Loft Handed Stone Sinners.

The right hand doubtless owes some
thing OF It's prominence to the Bible,
The Hebrews singled it out for special
honor, and the Scriptures contain quite
a hundred references in which 'the
right hand" is made the type and sym
Dol Of everything noble, pralseworthy
and desirable 1t is worth noting, how
ever, that the tribe OF Benjamin once
boasted TOO left handed singers who
"could sling stones to a hairs breadth
and not miss" and that among the
mighty men and helpers" Of King
David were many who could use both
the right hand and the left In hurting
stones and shooting arrows with the
bow."-London Standard.

Ia the matter Of the washing OF

was practically a sinecure, while it
seems within the bounds of possibility
that In those days she did not exist
at all. There were, insooth, few gar
ments which would stand washing,
and the dyer was driving a brisk trade
before the laundress was even thought

In the days OF the Tudors and Stu

which were permitted to find their
way into the buck pan"-as the wash

and far between. The wealthy OF the

spectator" Argues That Rule
May Be Modified.
WOULD HURT TRACK TEAM
Publishes Letters Protesting
That Indoor Work Is In
furious to Runners.

Dissatisfaction at Columbia over the
ruling of the university committee on
athletics barring Columbia athletes from
non-college contests during the academic
year took more emphatic form yester-
day, when 'The Spectator" the students
daily paper argued that the rule be modi-
fled so as to permit Columbia men to run
in indoor meets during the winter. pro
vided they represent Columbia.
The editorial was followed by n letter
from a student, who claimed that the re-
suit Of the intercollegiate track meets last
May showed beyond doubt that indoor
running was not as injurious TO an athlete
as the Columbia committee would have
the student believe.
AN athlete who represents Columbia
should not be allowed TO compete in out
side meets and wear the colors of a
club" said The Spectator" "There is no
valid reason. however. why a Columbia
man should he prohibited from running in
meets held outside the university's juris-
diction 80 long as he does not represent
any other institution or athletic organiza-
ton.
"SuCh interference with the freedom Of
athletes seems to us unwarrantable and
wholly uncallod for. It's as absurd as
telling a man that he may neither walk,
run nor swim, unless he represents his
alma mater, The ruling should be mega
tived as speedily as possible"

ARMY STORING SUPPLIES
To Establish Emergency Depots
Throughout the Country.
From The Tribune Bureau.1
Washington. October


PART OF PREPARATION FOR WAX
PLAINTIFF War Department is complet-
ing plans for q series of emergency stor-
age establishments at various places
throughout the United States for the &C
emulation of medical and subsistence
supplies. clothing and other personal
equip ncnt, arms and ammunition. Each
year such sum as the army appropria-
tons permitted has been set aside with
view to acquiring this ese.ge stock ana
there is now a considerable accumulation.
II is desired to have on hand such articles
Of equipment as would not be readily OBJ
tainable I'm open market in time of war.
There must be an initial resource to
keep an army supplied until regular
sources Of supply can be arranged. IN
some cases, as with food stuffs, there
will be no difficulty IN acquiring all that
is needed In the open market. Subsistence
is limited, however to the purchase OIL
emergency supplies and these, it Is feit'
may be purchased without fear OF de-
terioration Certain OF the medical sup
plies and much Of the clothing must be
acquired in advance TO as great an ex-
tent az possible Special difficulty nat
urally attaches to the acquisition Of arms
and ammunition in an emergency.
The Secretary of War desires to in
crease some OF these supplies as far as
possible notably field artillery material,
for which the ammunition and armament
estimate amounts to 100000. 1t is pro-
posed. however, so to divide this sum as
to have one-half Of it carried by the army
appropriation bill and the remainder by
the fertilization bill. The increased esti-
mate for quartermaster's supplies VIII
amount TO between 100000 and 100000,
and will offset the administrative saving
already effected by the consolidation Of
the auartermaster, subsistence and pay
departments.
The depots which have been established
are under the chief of ordnance, the sur
geon general and the cEiei Of the quarter
master corps. and are situated I'm the lead
ing cities possessing ample facilities for
transportation. so that the material may
be shipped without delay 10 any point OF
concentration either within the United
States. where troops are being moblized,
or 10 a seaport where t.e troops are being
embarked for transpol tation over seas.
The whole arrangement has been co-or-
dinatod recently by experts at the army
war college and forms one Of the impor-
tant features OF the departmental prep
aration for war.
