The genius of the "Athenaeum," the famous Norman Mccall, gave him a friendly reception, too, but naturally he counted most on his connection with The Academy. Not in vain, either! That renowned literary weekly was then under the control of perhaps the greatest of its many distinguished editors. James Sutherland Cotton, who at present is honorary secretary of the Egypt ex- ploration fund. and who also has writ ten authoritativeiy on the subject of India.
 "He gave me the most friendly of greetings" said Bradley. "and exam ined me carefully on the subject of what I wanted to do and my qualifi- cations for doing it.. As the result he observed, drily.

 James Sutherland Cotton was ripenng, and when about a year later the older man wished to devote himself for time to work in connection with India, he arranged that Henry Bradley should, during that period. be editor of 'The Academy"
 That editorship," said Bradley, mat urally brought me in touch with many
 men of distinction whose acquaintance was valuable to me. Perhaps the best known of these was the late Dr. Furnival, and though our acquaintance started
 with a quarrel. it later ripened into a very warm friendship. The cause of this preliminary little unpleasantness was dis satisfaction on the great scholars part with my attitude asseditor of The Acad- emy to some of his articles (he was capable of making rather extraordinary statements), and our eventual friendship dated from the time I joined the Phil. ological society.

HAYNES ACHIEVEMENTS
 RECORD IS BARRED.
Claimed That Celtic Track Was Short The Finn Ran Great Race and De- serves Credit.

flames Kolehmainen will not be credited with record for the 15 mile run at the Monument games last Sum day, where he displaced the time made by Jim Crowley some years ago. The International Federation rules, which have been adopted by the Amateur Athletic union, made Celtic park a short track The old curb measure ment of IS inches inside actual still remains there, therefore no record ex- cepting made on the straightaways can be accepted unless the distance necessary to conform to the interna- tional rule has been added on by mak- ing competitors run the extra yards.
 The Finn's great run will not even go on the almanac as noteworthy performance. It lis regrettable that Koly has lost the chance to get a mark for that distance. He ran a great race and if the track had been correct, or if the officials had made him travel the extra distance, which would not have taken him over Is seconds, he would have been credited with making new figures for the distance. After the hard training he put in to condition himself and the great race he put up he was entitled to some honor.

Little Hope for Olympic Games.

Baron de Coubertain, president of the Olympic games committee, which recently chose Lausanna as it's inter- national headquarters, writes to say that according to the rules and regu- lations the fixed venue for the next Olympic games-namely, Berlin-can- not be changed nor the event post poned from next year.
 On the other hand, Germany has no authority to hand over the event to another country. Several towns in France and America would be glad to hold the meeting, but permission can not be granted. as the committee is hedged in with regulations formed many years ago. It may therefore be concluded that the Olympic games of 1916 will not take place.

In the course ! of the early decline, leading stocks | went as low or lower than at yester- | days close, but general improvement was shown in the final dealings the | movement being concurrent with semi official advices which suggested some reduction of the strain between Aus 1 tria and Italy.
 In the main todays operations were professional the trading element veer- ing from the long to the short account and back again with such rapidity as to make for frequent confusion of prices, eading and several other spec ulative favorites ref1ecting internit- tent pressure, and the movement else where showed a mixture of gains and losses.
