A convincing argument for the cot
ton bale theory of the defense in the
battle of New Orleans was discovered
in the cellar OF the st. Charles Hotel
yesterday. In the bottom compart-
ment of a moldy trunk that had prob
ably occupied an out-of-the-way corner
since the present structure was erect
ed, large water color birdseye view
of the famous battle was found by a
hotel employee.
On this particular map a line of
cotton bales is shown, reaching from
the river to the woods. A foot note
says that the line was 1000 yards long
and had prolongment extending 600
yards into the woods Recent his
torians have repeatedly declared the
cotton bale story to be myth.
Marginal notes attest the fact that
the drawing was made after the or
iginal plan of battle as drawn under
the direction of Andrew Jackson by
H. Laclotte, the military engineer of
the Army of Louisiana, The sigma
lures and pen sketches of five vete-
rams, Joseph st. Cyr, Jean Gervais,
Jean Lamothe, p. NJ. Lapice and
Charles Raymond are among the foot
notes.
The finding of the battle plan is
timely as it will be of service in stag
ing the battle of New Orleans. which
is to be one of the leading features of
the Exposition of Big Ideas. The map
will be loaned by the hotel to the ex-
position managers. - New Orleans

RANK HIGH IN SCHOLARSHIP
That Athletes Are Poor Students 10
Denied by Former Professor
In an Eastern College.

That athletics are practiced in n. ost
colleges do not detract the attention OF
students from scholastic duties Is
abundantly testified to by college pro-
fessors." remarked Dr. James Hlne>
man, former professor In one of the
eastern colleges DR.. Brlnker. the
president OF Lehigh university, de-
clared that the Lehigh football squad
had averaged higher In scholastic
standing than the students who did
not participate in college athletics LIE.
high Is not the only college In which
this fact has been marked. Cornell for
several years-and have no doubt
that II continues to show it--had foot.
ball and baseball teams the members
OF which led their classes.
Properly controlled athletics are as
necessary to successful mental train
ing as are professors. presume there
have been instances where members
Of college teams have failed in their
examinations and charges follow, as a
matter OF course. that these men are
not genuine students But the facts are
30 pronounced that the best men on
tho leading athletic teams In our
greatest colleges are men of big men,
tally that the suggestion that col.
leges have to hire athletes falls In It's

MADE HIM GIVE UP THE GAME
cacdie's Unfecllng Remarks Too Much
TOR Tender Feelings Of Dear
Old Gentleman.

A dear old gentleman. who had only
taken up the dear game very late in
life, spent some months endeavoring,
under the tuition of professional
and the care OF special caddie, to
hit the ball. When he succeeded in
doing 30 at all 1t was never more than
a few yards. and every bunker on the
course was his daily doom Still his
caddie, having an eye to the main
chance, always encouraged MIN to
think that he would soon be more a
player and the old man. with the
hope that springs eternal even more
In the hearts Of golfers than in other
people, firmly believed him. One day
it happened that his special caddy was
absent. and rufianly looking person
appeared on the first tee with the old
gentleman's clubs. He took his nor.
nal IA shots to the first hole, to the
unconcealed but unnoticed disgust Of
the caddie; but on the second tee the
miracle happened, and the old boy for
once hit beauty.
That was good one, wasn't it,"
he asked, turning to the bearer Of
clubs.
Good one? retorted the ruffian, in
tones Of the bitterest contempt. why,
] could play better than that with me
left fut."
This unexpected verdict SO upset
the poor old man that he walked
straight back home. and has never
touched club since.

NEW LIGHT ON SCRIPTURES
Russian Writers Satisfied That They
Have Found Proper Solutions
to Biblical PARALLELS.

Some years ago 4 Russian wrote a
fantastic (but none the less interest
ing on that account book In which he
set forth that the intervening years
between the boyhood of Jesus and his
appearance at the age of thirty years
were chiefly spent in India, and that
it was there that he obtained a knowl-
edge of which he made good use in
his ministry. Another Russian, Mich
olas Morosow, biblical critic, recent
ly published book on the revelation
of st. John, the sale Of which has
been interdicted by the Russian
church Morosow claims to have dis
covered all the mysteries in the
Apocalypse. He AYERS that all the
signs of the zodiac are discoverabe
in the book Of Revelation; that the
four cherubim are the four constella-
tons; the twelve gated celestial city
Is the armament. This author claims
to have discovered the actual day in
which the Christian prophet wrote
Revelation; that the writer thereof
was not the apostolic st. John, the
beloved of Jesus, but st. John Chrys-
ostoM. "the golden mouthed" patriarch
Of Constantinople and that the year of
the writing was 395 A. d. In this Rus
slams argument 1t is set out that the
representation of the heavens In the
Apocalypse corresponds exactly to
what it appeared from the Isle of Pat
1896. A. d., and the like appearance
has never since been witnessed on
this island
