BOYS SUMMER CAMP
To Be Run by George Bonhag This
Year at Lake Annabessacook.

George Bonhag, whose name has
been before the public for the last 10
years as one of the greatest athletes
that America has produced, will open
a camp for boys this summer on the
shore of Lake Annabessacook, VIM
throp, Me.
At Columbia University Monday af-
ternoon Bonhag said it was his aim to
bring boys back to the city better
fitted physically to carry on their work
at school. In this connection" he
said, Il wish to emphasize the fact
that training for athletic events of any
kind will not be encouraged.
From my experience and observa-
ton 1 have learned that for boys who
wish to become professional in any
branch of athletic activity requiring
special preparation the best results are
obtained if their training period is
deferred until the boys are more fully
matured.''

Sporting Gossip Of the Day
HEADWORK

(By John H. McGough, in Science
tady Union-Star.)
There was a man in Gotham
And he was wondrous wise,
The Federal League saw he was
great
And sought to grab the prize.
His name was Christy Mathewson:
They knew that name would
Therefore they up and offered
The earth and something more.
They offered him the Brooklyn
- Bridge,
Broadway and Herald Square;
They said they'd give him Central
Park,
And then elect him mayor:
Or make him chief of Tammany;
Or governor OF the State,
II he would merely leave McCraw
And share the Federaps fate.
He could have had the Waldorf
If with Gilmore he wou.l roam;
They'd move away Grants tomb
for him
1 And there build him a home.
They'd pay his income tax for life,
Give him radium mine,
In fact there was no limit
IL If Matty'd only sign.
But though his speed is dying out,
As seasons onward roll,
There's one thing Matty always
has;
Most excellent control.
So while the mention of big coin
Stands others on their heads,
The grand old master keeps quite
calm
And doesn't join the Feds"

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealing In All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, March 1.-THE strength of
the preceding session was lacking In the
stock market today and fluctuations were
irregular Attempts at the outset to ex-
tend the rise were checked by large sell
ing of American Sugar and the Eastern
railroad shares. Sugar fell to the lowest
and New York Central developed heayi-
ness. The whole list softened under the
influence of this selling.
Pressure diminished in the latter half
OF the day and among the tndustriais
there were numerous points of strength
Railroad shares, however, exhibited fur
Their weakness and the movement as
whole was an uneven one: Rock Isia ne
collaterals at 40 touched new low records
Western Pacific SIS, one Of the weakest
of the Gould securities, dropped four
points to low record at 50.
The Improvement among the industriais
was helped on by good reports from the
iron and steel trade. Low priced copper
increased demand for the metal. following
publication of the strong monthly state
ment of the producers association. Beth
lehem Sters annual report showed an In
crease of SO, 638 600 in gross profits. The
weekly reviews of trade authorities, how
! ever, said that current business in fin-
! ished steel was slow, the amount of
bookings in the first half of the month
having fallen considerably below expec-
| tations.
American Sugars recent decline was
explained by the sharp decrease In earn
| ings shown in the annual report The
gross profits for 1918 were s3,303,000 under
the preceding year. Gossip of a possible
cut in New York Central dividend rate
at this time was ended by the declara-
ton of the regular dividend, on which
the stock rallied sharply after an early
slump.
Selling for foreign account was resum-
ed here. Offerings were comparatively
light and only about 10000 shares were
disposed of on cabled orders
Bonds were irregular. Strength in inn
portant issues was offset by weakness of
speculative bonds Total sales, par value
81, 200 0o0 United States rs registered de-
clined on call.
