Effect of the Sun on Monuments.

The perpendicularity Of a monument
Is visibly affected by the rays of the
sun. On every sunny day tall monu-
ment has a regular swing leading
away from the sun. This phenomenon
Is due to the greater expansion Of the
side on which the rays of the sun fell.
A pendulum placed inside, say, Mel
sons column, in Trafalgar square,
would be found to describe on every
clear day an ellipse of pretty nearly
half an inch In diameter.-London

roads on a place self consecrated ac-

Strict Women Who Love.

The strictest women are at times the
most loving. When this happens their
attachment is as strong as death, their
fidelity as resisting as the diamond.
They are hungry for devotion and
athirst for sacrifice. Their love is a
piety their tenderness a religion, and
they triple the energy Of love by en-
shrining 1t as duty.-Henri Frederic

uc pIlSOA tcdu SuucN CH0IT IOS-
ing streak last Saturday by defeat
ing Alton lila; both teams using
two boxmen. Carl, local first base
man, scored the first home run of
the season on home diamond. The
game was characterized by free
hitting and loose fielding. The in
clement weather. was no boubt
largely responsible for the latter.
The home team was much steadier
than in any previous game and it
was largely due to this that they
can attribute their victory. In pre-
vious games they have had as good,
if not better, chances from the very
break but failed to pull through; as
they lacked that all important es-
sence-self- confidence. Saturday the
fans were almost overcome with
despair in the first half of the open
ing inning because the visitors ran
up tally Of four through three err
rors on the M.S.P part, a pass and
a couple well placed hits; but they
very soon realized that the team in
action Saturday was intirely differ
ent from the one that had been pos
ing on the local diamond during the
past week or so, true. the personel
was the same. but there was an en-
tirely different spirit, confidence, or
sand, in every individual of the M.
SIP. lineup. The new and improved
showing of our boys iu their last
contest brings to us memories of a
little poem by Berton Bradley, en-
titled, Against The Dope" If I
remember rightly it goes something
like this:
''The Braves were sure to hiver, and
Alexander Couldn't do it,,
As was proved In facts and figures by
the ton.
They were absolutely hopeless, there
was Simply nothing to it,,
The dope was all against them, but
they won!'
Well, that was our position right
up to the opening of the game, nine
tenths of the fans had it all doped
out that the prison team simply
couldn't win; but they did, and
mark my words they will win good
many more games this season, and
while they have a very respectable
percentage at the present-555-
it will be well above this at the close
of the 1915 season.
The Alton ball team are a fine
gentlemanly bunch of sports and
put up a fine, clean game at all
times, the only accident in the con-
test occurred in the last half of the
third when Picullel. the visitors
mound artist, twisted his knee in an
endeavor to run down Carl bet ween
third and home. While the player
suffered no serious injury, it was
nevertheless painful and necessitated
his removal to the hospital. A.
Hedstrom, their center fielder, went
in the box, while Gordon replaced
him in the field. Hedstrom proved
to be an Al twirler.
The weather was the only disap-
pointing feature Of the days sport.
1t began to drizzle about noon and
kept it up for the balance of the
day, ending with a proper rain
storm about six o'clock, shortly af-
ter the completion of the contest;
yet despite the weather, there was
a fairly large crowd of outside fans
to witness the game.
In the first, Picullel raised one to
center, Bergie slipped and let the
ball go. M. Picullel walked, A

l have said that the presentation
of the news was the principal con-
Germ of newspaper; that it must
print all the news, without fear or
favor" as the country editors say.
Now the impartial presentation of
news depends upon absolute freedom
from interference, either on the part
of the Government or of extraneous
commercial influences. both of which
may be equally pernicious. The
struggle for political freedom of the
press has been long and slow one,
both in England and later in this
country. and it may, perhaps, be
said that papers are freer from res
traints in the United States than in
any other country. Scattered at
tempts, it is true, have been made
from time to time to curtail the right
of newspaper to print what it will,
but these attempts have been in the
main abortive. and the degree of
license with which a newspaper
may print the news has been on the
increase to the present day.
In the period following the Rev.
olution the Alien and Sedition Acts
marks significant attempt by the
Government to restrict the press in
printing political exhortations, but
this ended in a failure, the attempts
at regulation were for the time CIV
en- up. In the Wilson administra-
ton, two cases have come before
the public gaze where the admins
tration has tried to coerce the news
papers. One was the case of the
two New York Tribune men who
were arrested and charged with con-
tempt for refusing to answer the
court as to the source of certain in
formation printed in the Tribune
about the Custom House. Another
more recent case was brot to notice
when Mr.. Miller, of the New York
Times was arranged before the SEN
ate Committee in an attempt to for
ce him to reveal the hidden motives
which prompted the Times opposi-
ton to the Ship Bill. 1t may be
gratefully remarked that both these
attempts at Governmental control
failed, as they deserved to do.
More dangerous, indeed, far more
subtle and far-reaching than any
Government influence on the press
is that influence brought to bear by
the business interests. The infu-
ence of big advertisers in saying
what news shall and shall not be
printed is a condition which has
been made the theme of many a
magazine article, and it has been
most severely criticised by Mr..
Hamilton Holt and others. Corpor-
atoms who are enabled to buy up
news columns of supposedly reput-
able newspapers and fill them with
their own advertisements printed
precisely as news, as it is said rail-
road corporation did with certain
Massachusetts papers. in an at
tempt to make sentiment for the
railroads; the attempts of theatrical
managers to coerce the dramatic
critics to give them favorable re-
views by threat to withdraw adj
vertising, or by the refusal to ad-
nit to the theatre critics known to
be given to speaking his mind" de-
partment stores leaguing together to
boycott certain newspapers because
they print certain news detrimental
to the stores business interests, are
all instances of this tendency of
