EDGAR STREET

"HE original street plan of early New
Amsterdam is still preserved in many
parts of lower Manhattan. The shortest
street in New York Edgar street, is one of the
most picturesque of these SurviValS linking the
busy modern city with the past. In the very
early days when the Hudson River extended to
the present line of Greenwich street this short
thoroughfare probably ran from what Is now
Trint. place to the Waterfront.
\ little to the north of Edgar street was
the West India Company's orchard and garden
extending as far as Broadway. To-day
towering skyscraper occupies this site and
elevated railroads bound either end of this
short thoroughfare What was once stately
mansion has long stood on the northern side of
Edgar street: many years ago il fell from its
high estate and became hotel frequented by
foreigners.
The street is named after the old Edgar
mansion in Greenwich street. where in 1884
Daniel Webster made an address to the people
on the inauguration of Cornelius W. Lawrence,
first elected Mayor of New York. To-day the
buildings in the vicinity bear almost without

THINGS ALL OUGHT TO KNOW

AS Christian Bible Students-The Sat

Evil"
One of the questions which comes to
nearly every thinking mind today is.
"Why does God permit evil?' AS we
look about us in the world we observe
that it is filed with sorrow and trouble.
sickness and pain and every trial we
could enumerate, and we cannot help
wondering WHY GOD ALLOWS IT.
We realize that He is almighty and
that He could prevent 1t if He wished
We read in His Word that He is more
willing to do for His children than
are earthly parents for theirs. and we
know how much that means: yet of
tentimes 1t seems that those who try
to do and live right have the most
trouble. This question is made very
clear in a book entitled. THE Divine
Plan Of the Ages" Every statement
is backed by Scripture, and shows that
while God does not sanction evil HE
HAS HAD A PURPOSE IN ALLOW
ING SIN AND DEATH TO REIGN

OYSTERS LIVE AND DEAD.
And the Big Difference 1t Makes When
They Are Eaten Raw.

They Are Eaten Raw.
Speaking about keeping hotels, Sine
on Ford, who won fame and fortune
in that profession, had this to say
about the s%ucculent oyster:
People have come AND sworn to
me that we had the finest oysters in
the world. Now, that was all tommy
rot. We had the same oysters any one
else could buy, although we always
bought the best we could. But there is
this about the oyster: When be is good
he is very, very bad.
There is a whole lot of difference
between a dead oyster and a live one.
When an experienced opener puts his
knife into an oyster he can tell in a
second if the oyster is really alive.
He can even tell by the resistance
whether the oyster is in prime condi-
ton or only fair. If the oyster was
not just right our men would throw it
away and they used to throw away
about one oyster in every four that we
bought.
"a dead oyster isn't fit to eat raw.
But the live oyster that is opened
right in front of you and stays on the
plate just long enough to squeeze a
drop of lemon IN, he goes down your
throat a juicy and a palpitating treat.
That's only possible when you stand
up to an oyster bar.
why, in some of our gilded palaces
they begin to open oysters after break
fast and you get them for dinner. Well,
you get them, that's all, and they're
dead! A corpse is a corpse, even if it
is kept on ice."-Henry NJ. Hall in New
York World.

OUR NATIONAL GAME
Baseball as Now Played Is Essentially
American In Origin.

American In Origin.
Some authorities trace baseball to
IN old English ball game called round
ers,'' which dated from the eighteenth
century. "Rounders' was played in an
open field marked out by a five sided
figure, the points being called bases,
first to fourth and home bases. The
feeder" (modern pitcher) stood in the
middle of the pentagOn; the bats
man ran the bases and scored a run if
he made the circuit without being put
out, but he was retired if a hit ball was
caught on the fly or on the first bounce
or when he was struck out by having
the ball thrown at him while running
the bases.
"Rounders' was played in this coun.
try before the Revolutionary war and
baseball possibly was an outgrowth of
it, but if so it was a long time coming.
The game as now played is essentially
of American origin, through the differ
ent stages of two old cat, three old
cat, four old cat, town ball and bull
pen.
The Washington Baseball club, the
first known, was formed in New York
in 1S43, and the first regular code of
rules was drawn up in 1916 by the
Kn~ickerbOcker Baseball club of New
York. The first national association
was organized in 1853, and the first
convention Of baseball ~financiers and
managers was held in Philadelphia in
1867, about 500 organizations being

Livinq or a Salary.

Living on a salary is a more or less
precarious form Of existence, but it is
not always wise for every man to go
into business for himself. Some men
are not fitted for that responsibility,
and there are a great many failures Of
men who strike out for themselves
without sufficient backing of capital or
experience. However, if you never
save any money out of your salary you
will never get ahead financially. You
always will be the tail of another

steam in the boilers of somebody else's

The statement made in the Gunnison
Republican of last week that County
clerk, =. j Hurley received $4,000 last
year as his salary is plain lie 1t can
be proven to be lie by any careful
examination of the county records. No
mi n can prove or can show that he re-
ceived that amount. and Mr. Hurley
says that he will defy any man to show
that he has received any more than he
is allowed to receive under the law.
Some of the Republicans seem TO be
trying hard to dig up something which
will cast discredit upon the present Of
flee holders, and they have gone so far
that they are willing to publish false
statement in order, as they believe,
that they will gain some better chance
of electing their candidates.
II we are not badly mistaken, they
will come out in the last issue of the
Republican with choice lot of scandal
and charges of graft They will make
use of the last issue for their prize
stories because they think then that it
will be too late for their opponents to
show up the real truth.

The excellent qualifications of Miss
