quake as lasting half minute. Windows and

WHAT AFTER THE LAST SLEEP
Most Important of All Questions as a
Material Philosopher Sees
1t, Is Considered.

In considering our destinies beyond
the grave, we need have no reason
to lirgar too long over these appari-
tons or these revelations, even though
they Should really be incontestable
and to the point They would seem,
all told, to be only the incoherent and
precarious Manifestations of transit
tory state. They would at best prove,
IL we were bound to admit them,
that reflection of ourselves, an after
vibration Of the nerves, bundle. of
emotions, spiritual silhouette, q
grotesque and forlorn image, or, more
correctly, sort of truncated and up.
rooted memory, can. after our death,
linger and float in space where moth
ing remains to feed it, where it gradu-
ally becomes wan and lifeless. but
where a special fluid, emanating from
an exceptional medium, succeeds at
moments In galvanizing it.
Perhaps it exists effectively, per
haps it subsists and revives only in
the recollection of certain sympathies.
After all it would be not unlikely
that the memory which represents us
during our life should continue to do
SO for a few weeks or even a few
years after our decease This would
explain the evasive and deceptive
character of those spirits which, DOS.
sessing only mnemonic existence,
are naturally able to interest them
selves only in matters within their
reach. Hence their irritating and ma
niacal energy in clinging to the slight
est facts, theiy sleepy dullness, their
incomprehensibie indifference and
ignorance, and all the wretched alb
surdities which we have noticed more
than once.-Maurice Maeterlinck In

RULES REMAIN INTACT
Football Code Not Materially Al
tered by Committee.
Majority Of Changes Are Technical
and VIII Have But Little Effect
Upon the Game as PIaye
During the Autumn.

The intercollegiate football rules, as
promulgated by the football rules com
mittee in New York, show few changes
in the gridiron code for the season OF
1913. The majority of the alterations
are technical and will have little effect
upon the game this autumn.
The most important change is the
rule which permits the kicker to stand
at any distance from the line of scrim-
mage when kicking. instead Of at
least five yards in the rear Of the
scrimmage line. Under the new regu-
lations, it is expected that quick kick
ing from directly behind the forwards
will be a feature of the play during
the coming season. Walter Camp, in
outlining the work of the rules COM
mittee in connection with the revision
of the playing code, said:
THE alteration was brought about
by the fact that the player could not
be returned to the game after he had
once been taken out, except at the be-
ginning of a period. It-often happened
that an unexpected substitution was
necessary in the fourth period, and
there seemed no reason why an excep-
ton should not be made in this case;
but the rules forbade 1t; hence they
were altered this year to read: Play
er may be returned once at the begin
ming of any period, or at any time
during the fourth or last period
"A relic of the old time when the
ball was not always snapped back with
the hands had been eliminated The
rule which read by one quick con-
tinuous motion of the hands or of the
foot, has been shortened by cutting
out the words or the foot =
THE rule relating to forward
pass or a kick made from behind the
goal line, together with the rule re-
lating to dropping back linemen, has
also been rendered clearer by changes
in the wording A specific penalty has
been placed upon advancing beyond
the lines In case of punt-out. the
penalty now being that the puntsr's
angle be moved five yards away from
the nearest goal post along the goal
lines. If the punter-out makes a de-
liberate attempt by feint to draw
the opponents off side the referee ia
not to permit him to kick the ball un-
til the opponents have had time to re-
turn behind their restraining line.
I'm the rules regarding the conduct
of players after forward pass or
after a kick, insertion of the words
after the pass has been made now
makes it clear that players may in.
terfere with one another until the pass
Is actually made"

WHY MORRIS ,RATH LOST OUT
Little Inside Baseball Was Cause of
His Shift to Minors-UpheId De-
clsIon of the Umpire.

Wonder If Morris Rath, sent to
Kansas City by the White Sox, knew
that he really lost his job at Phila-
delphia during recent trip of the
Sox?
He'll probably recall the play and
the incident once it is called to his at
tention. Morris was coaching at first
base and Callahan was at third. Lord
was at bat. He hit bounder to one
of the infielders and as it was slow
hit he figured he could beat 1t out.
He ran with every ounce of speed and
strength that he possessed. The play
was mighty close.
"Out!" howled the umpire.
Lord figuratiyely hit the ceiling. He
threw his cap down and jumped upon
It, He picked 1t up and threw it down
again. He howled and he scowled.
He allowed that If there ever was a
blind umpire that he was working on
the bases that day. He assured the

Doy before them. In a small hot au

Grabowsky's dignity, the dignity of

yellow eyes held neither insolence nor
fear nor apparent pathos, only ia

tired, was incapable of connected
