CR|CKKETERS PAY TRIBUTE ID HAWKE Chosen to Head Governing Body of British Club A NOTED SPORTSMAN In His Long and Adventurous Career He Has Travelled Over 15O,00O Niles-Thirteen Tigers
 in One Haul
A NOTED SPORTSMAN

London, June 27.-(Special.)-On of the most genuinely interesting men and most luminously popular heroes In all the Brit ish empire has just been paid Il great and, all admit, well merited honor. The man in question is Martin Bladen, seventh Baron Hawke, the famous crlcleter, traveller and big game hunter who comes down in a direct line from the doughty old sea dog of the same name who thrashed the French off Belle Isle in 1759. and the honor that has just been paid him consists in his elecuon as president of the M. c. C., or Marylebone Cricket club, which, as everyone who knows anything about cricket is aware. is by far the biggest cricket organization going and the governing body so far as British cricket is concerned.
 Comparatively few Americans, of course, do know anything about cricket, and the majority of us care less But you simply can't help being interested in the personality and record, especially as u mighty hunter, of the new president of the M. C. C., who, by the way, is far from being a stranger in the United States, and who, in the course of some 90 years of adventurous wanderings over the earth's surface, is estimated to have

hairs fall out and are replaced by un- pigmented or white ones. The appearances of gray or white hair is therefore at tributable to the formation of a new hair coat rather than by the alteration of the old one Completely pigmented hairs never turn gray. they fall out. It Is nevertheless observed that the process of pigment formation may cease during the development of d hair. In that event tho tip will remain pigmented though the base appears white.
 How are we to harmonize these state ments with the many published records of hair having turned white suddenly as the presumable consequence of fright or other profound emotion? A careful study of the reputed instances has invariably shown that they were mythical. It is popularly related that Mary Antoinette grew gray during the night after she was condemned to be executed. It is true that at her death her hair was gray, but her hiographers all record that her hair had been gray long before the time of her death. It Is also quite possible that the change in her hair while in prison was due to the fact that she did not have access to hair dyes and other toilet prep arations This may serve to illustrate the value of hearsay evidence and popular tradition.
 The conspicuous changes which tho color of the fur of certain species of afai- mals undergoes at different seasons of the. year. becoming white in the winter months, affords an opportunity of in- vestigating this pronounced transforma- ton seemingly so closely related to what is seen in advancing age in man. The studies of Sohwalhe have demonstrated that here, too. there is no alteration of the color of the summer fur. The dark hairs fall out as the season advances and white hairs grow fin their place. No sudden changes are found when accurate observations are instituted.

father. in 1887. at which time, by the way,
 he was playing cricket in Australia. He explained Yorkshire for nearly 9 years, and how he is thought of in his own coun- ty is well illustrated by a story that is told concerning a dispute at a village cricket match.
 The umpire had given a decision which considerably enraged a batsman The latter declared that the umpire could not
 have been paying proper attention to the game, whereupon spectators and players
 settled themselves down in keen expecta-
 ton of a fight.
 What dost thou know of cricket?' asked the umpire at last.
 Here, indeed was 0 point. but the man
 with the bat was equal to t. Drawing
 himself up proudly, he replied, T know
 more than you do, at any rate.' Then,
 curling his lower lip with sublime disdain, he added, "Aven't I shook 'ands with Lord 'Awke? That's more than you ever did; so there"
 This reference to Lord Hawke settled it, and the umpire retired beaten man.

i actual wedding, which usually takes place week later, is spent by the future hus-
 band and wife in vigil, without which it Is thought that great i'll fortune would follow. Next day the happy couple with their parents and friends, appear before the priest, who duly unites them. The procession then returns to the house of the bride, where another big feast is held.
 At the close of the day two old women conduct the bridegroom to the bridal
 room, where, on a huge bedstead. amid a multitude of pillows holsters and cover lets, sits the bride For three days and three nights the old women stay with
 them. The couple are hardly allowed to speak. and any advances the bridegroom
 may make are, according to etiquette, left
 unnoticed by the coy bride After this somewhat trying ordeal the old women discreetly retire and the happy pair are left alone to take up the threads of their new life.

Japanese Marriage Lengthy Ordeal


 From the World Wide Magazine.
 A marriage among the Javanese is quite a lengthy ordeal. Such thing as court ship is practically unknown. The parents choose partners for their children, al- though the latter are consulted and their consent obtained. The parents discuss among themselves the terms of the mar riage. and then the girls parents give a betrothal pledge to those of the bride groom, who soon after offer the purchase price for the bride in silver, jewels, stuffs, food and so on. Each of the girls par ents also receives some special personal gift. On the day when the presents are delivered all the relatives and friends on both sides are invited to a series of fes- tiyities and banquets which last several days, being furnished first by one side and then by the other. The eve of the

Has Done Much for Game

No man living has done more for the game of cricket than Lord Hawke, who in fact, has been a sort of missionary for the national sport of these islands hav- ing popularized it in many strange and far-of lands. A few years ago, his lord ship was presented with a national testi- monial, which he didn't in the least win. in recognition of his work in this connee- ton.
 Enthusiastically too, Lord Hawke. who is now 54, has done his best to bridge the social chash which, in this country, yaWns between the amateur ano the professional cricketer. This chasm Is wide one, and no mistake, as one indi- cation of which it may be mentioned that When reporting cricket matches the news papers are careful to discriminate be- tween amateurs and professionals by painstakinsly printing the initials of each players name in the case of the anna teurs, and refraining from doing so in the case of the pros" At all cricket grounds, too the amateurs leave and enter by one gate and professionals by another. but Lord Hawke. since first he began play ing, the game, has made a point of using the professionals gate little act of courtesy that has not lessened his person. al popularity.
 Cricket matches have taken him to Aus tralia, New Zealand and the West Indies, twice to South Africa, twice to India, and twice to Canada and the United States. At Ottawa he played a match in the snow, and in America he had the unusual experience of being soundly beaten by a native eleven. At Eton, he shone in every form of athletics. from leap-frog to sprinting but it is as a big game hunter that he is only less famous than as a knight of the willow" He has hunted in both tho Rockies and the Andes, and, in 1906, went on a hunting ex- petition with Col. W. F. Cody, in the course of which the whole party nearly lost their lives, being showed up amongst the mountains.
 Big Game Haul
 Lord Hawkes. biggest sporting trip, however, was in the spring of 1892, when he lived in camp for four months at the foot of the Himalayas, shooting every day. The encampment comprised no less than 40 elephants and 20 camels and the "bag" included IS tigers, two leopards, swamp deer, cheetah and other ferocious denizens of the jungle. On another expe- dition Lord Hawke got nine tigers all to himself.
 Trophies of the chase. accordingly. are numerous at his Yorkshire home, Wighill Park. In the entrance hall a white bear, shot by his lordship in Nepaul, serves as a card stand. The staircase walls are hung with the skins of five tigers, one d iu-Iooter, ana nere, too, are the antlerS of three stags. one a royal, killed by Lord Hawke in one days stalking in Glendee forest. Cricket souvenirs are still more numerous. They include photo- graphs of all the teams Lord Hawke has explained and all the eevents he has taken to different parts of the world. Here, too, is the ball off which his county scored SS7 runs against Warwickshre in one inning in 1896. Four centuries were made in that inning, and Lord Hawke was one of the scoring quartet.
