Ball a Girls Game.

Of all the games ball seems to be
peculiarly a girls game throughout the
ages. The Roman girls used to strike
balls with the palm of the hand to
keep them bouncing or would fling
them against the wall to drive them
back on the return or would pass the
ball from hand to hand in the ring or
in a row. The ball of the olden times
was much like the one 10Y in use. It
was soft or hard, as occasion demand
ed; it was plain with painted or en-
broidered cloth; it was a hollow large
balloon or a small light sphere. The
German poets make frequent allusion
to ball as a,girl's game. 1t was de-
scribed as a first sport of summer
One writer observes. when 1 saw the
girls on the street playing ball then
came to our ears the song of birds"
The game was a favorite one with
youths and maids. who would contend
for the ball, that the II who gained
it might throw it to the one loved best.

Mental Medicine.

treated an old woman for typhoid, and
on each visit he took her temperature
by holding a thermometer under her

recovered the doctor did not bother to
take her temperature, and he had
hardly got 100 yards from the house
when her O called him back.

willie RICHIE A
REAL CHAMPION
His Defeat Of Rivers Makes
Him Worthy Of the Title
CROSS IN LINE FOR HONORS
New Yorker Whipped Anderson In
Mastery StyIe-May Be Matched
With Richie Shortly - Battle Be-
tween Pair Would Be a Good One.
BY TOMMY CLARK.

By TOMMY CLARK.
That Willie Richie has shown him
self to be a champion worthy Of the
name will be a good thing for boxing
in general. or late. in some quarters,
It has been thought the proper thing
to sneer at all present day glove
wielders.
The photographers. who, in their eff
forts to show their wit. are careless of
exact fact, have been neglecting no
opportunity to hold them up to ridi-
Guile. Even those who try to be fair
and just have been forced to admit
that the supply of real champions is
limited. All this adverse comment has
hurt boxing. If Richie proves to be
as willing as he is capable he can do
much to refute the skeptics and revive
interest in the game.
There was much doubt before the
Ritchie-leivers bout as to the fitness Of
the champion for the position he holds.
At that he figured to beat the Mexican.
who had often shown himself to lack
the determination and courage neces-
sary in a high class ring man.
Rivers raj true to form. In many
respects his work was a duplicate Of
that in his last bout with Leach Cross
in New York. In that affair Rivers be-
gan well. He tore in with straight
lefts that seldom missed. He took a
big lead. and it looked a certainty that
he would win. But Cross. who had
been trying in vain to land his noted
right. suddenly changed his tactics.
He began to lead with his left. The
blows were not very hard. but at once
there was n change in the Mexican's
work. He still dived in without ces-
sation, but with this notable difference:
1t was merely for the purpose Of OBJ
tanning the protection of the ensuing
clinch. His nerve had gone. To pro-
tect himself vas his main thought.
Although he was winning so easily
during the first half of the bout, he
was outgamed and %outfought in the
second.
Pretty much the same thing hap
pened in California recently. Rivers
did we'll AS long as he was in front,
but the moment he was stung all the
fight left him. But for this. failing
there might still be hope for him. but
the probabilities are he will never be
so prominent again.
With Rivers out of the way Leach
Cross is now the foremost contender.
according to the Los Angeles fans who
thought decidedly otherwise before the
New Yorker met Anderson. Cross al
ways did have many followers in the
east who believed him to be of cham.
pionship caliber. and if Richie decides
to meet him the sporting world will
pay strict attention to the match.
Those who are acquainted with the
New Workers. strong and weak points
will hardly give Cross more than a fair
chance Of winning. Against a polished
boxer Cross fails to make much head
way, although he is bad medicine for !;
rushing slugger. Still Cross is a hard
man to figure. He usually does the un
expected.

LASKER MAKES MATCH.
Chess Champion Agrees to Play Rub

DR.. Emanuel Lasker, chess champion
Of the world, has at last consented to
play a match for his title. His oppo-

deserves the honor. The work Of this
young player for the last year has been
the most remarkable exhibition Of
chess ability since the meteoric career
of Paul Morphy.
DR.. Lasker's gameness in selecting so
formidable an antagonist will do much
to restore confidence in the "old mas

lis unfortunate quarrel with Capa-
blanca. Indeed. the Cuban has hardly

CREATING NEW STATES.
Work That Congress May Do, but
Once Done. Cannot Undo,

work mat Congress May DO, bur,
Once Done, Cannot Undo.
Several times it has been proposed
to make two states out Of the state OF
New York. In fact. resolutions have
been introduced in the state legisla-
ture once or twice. but have died in
committee. The purpose has been to
include all of the present state south
of Westchester county in a new state
to be called Gin one instance) the state
of Manhattan. North of the Bronx
district the name of New York was
still to be retained. The surrounding
islands of the south-all those Of Long
Island sound, Long Island complete
and all Of the counties comprising
New York city-were to be embraced
within the new state of Manhattan.
The creation of a new state confers
a right that cannot later be abrogated
and in this respect is unique in the
establishment Of political areas. After
the people of the district in question
ing out of a new state is desired. o n
gress passes upon the application. Up
to this point congress is supreme.
Once. however, congress agrees to the
new state creation and the new state
becomes an established fact. then no
power Of the republic a undo what
has been done by legislative act. No
repeal can revoke the privileges Of a
law abiding sovereign state. New

Legends of an Elusive Warrior of tho
Twelfth Century.

Twelfth Century.
The famous if somewhat phantom
rersonasH Prester John. who for two
or three centuries occupied so promi-
nent a place in the historic annals OF
Europe and in the minds Of Europeans,
was, from the most reliable accounts.
a Christian conqueror of enormous
power and great %splendor. who COM
bined the character Of pri,Nt and king
and ruled over vast dominions in the
orient in the middle ages. He had, il
was related. established a powerful en-
pire either in Asia or Africa, and Won
derful stories We're told Of his victo-
ries, his riches and his power.
His mode of warfare, which was
unique and entirely effective. indicates
an intimate acquaintance with eX-
plosives and combustibles. He pos
sessed an army Of life sized copper
soldiers mounted on brazen horses,
which were charged with explosive
materials, projectiles and poisonous
gas. This formidable array was mar
shaded to the front and spat forth its
deadly fumes and dangerous projec-
tiles with horrid effectiveness. making
havoc in the ranks of the enemy.

HOW LITTLE BOYS DEBATE.

Says Senator McCumber: This tariff
bill is especially endowed with tooth and
talton for the injury and destruction of
the American farmer. You are about to
commit a greater crime against the
American farmer than has ever been per-
petrated by any political party against
any class of people during any period OF
recorded history"
1t is for the sake Of this kind of tommy
rot that the senate keeps the country
waiting two months. The Tariff debate
is bankrupt Of ideas. On both sides it
descends to that frothy violence of
language which is a sure sign that the
debaters have run out of rational argu-
ments. Senator Thomas is not content
to absolye the Wilson tariff of 1894 from
responsibility for the panic OF 1898. He
must say concerning the panic: There
can be no denial of the origin and pur-
pose of this frightful calamity. MIR.
Cleveland and the New York banks
conspired to wreck the progress and
prosperity of the nation that they might
be rid of an anwelcome law"
Little boys debate that way: MY pa
is forty times as strong as your pa"
Eyre a liar. My pa could take your pa
in one hand and break him in Two"
The new tariff bill, as reported to the
senate. proposes to take the top layers off
the tariff wall, reducing average ad-
valorem duties by one-fourih That
will endow the nation with a new free
dom, open a wide door of opportunity to
every worthy man, and spread a thick
uniform layer of economic sunshine from
