Australia to Honor Memory of
 Lea Darcy

The recent sudden and sad death of Les sDarcy was shock to all in Australia and general regret at this sudden termination of great and promising career was expressed in the land down under.
 Two nights after the news was flashed across the Pacific a con test was held at the Sydney Stad- ium between Jimmy Clabby and Dave Smith, and prior to the an- nouncement of operations the an- nouncer asked those present to stand for a moment with bowed heads as token of sympathy to the bereaved ones at his home. This was carried out in complete silence.
 A movement is on foot to raise a suitable monument in this great Australian bOrers memory It Is probable that public fund will be opened for the purpose.

President Tom Hickey has an- nounced policy that should please American Association fans. It is that players who start rows will not be put out of the game by the um- pires, but will be assessed fines. If after the first $25 penalty they fail to shut up and go in and play ball, another $25 will be added on, but they will have to stay in the game. Hickey's idea is that the fans pay to see athletes play. wheth- CT the weather be hot or cold, the team winning or losing. q

How Prussianisrn is Worked

From h American Review of Reviews.
The executive government of Prussia is
wholly in, the hands of the king, whose
council Of ministers is appointed by royal
decree. The Prussfan law making body
has two Chambers the upper one which
is made up OF royal princes. territorial
nobility, and a number Of magnates named
by the king, with a few burgomasters OF
large cities. The lower house, which has
443 members. is elected blythe great body

total extent OF one-third of all the taxes
paid. constitute the first class and exer-

stitute a second amount equal to a third
Of the whole, form the voters of the Sec
ond class, and they in turn nave a third

first class in Berlin has 50.times as much

bounds to say that one voter of the first
class has as much voting power as 50,00o
