The Days of Big Scores.
While the latter day crop Of base
ball fans have been educated to the
point where they prefer pitchers
battle to a batting bee. there are still
left many old timers whose taste in
the American pastime runs to the
fashioned game in which hits are
hard and frequent and big scores are
rolled up. To this type of fan the
classic baseball was one staged in
Buffalo just half a century ago to-
morrow. June 8, 1869, when the Nj
agaras defeated Columbus by a score
of 200 to 10. This was the largest
score on record in a game between
regular clubs.
In those days baseball game was
usually started right after dinner.
Beginning about one O'Clock iii the
afternoon. the game sometimes last
ed until sundoWn, and even then it
was not always possible to play nine
innings-or "endings" as it was Of
ten called. The job of scorekeeper
was no cinch, although he didn't
have to keep track of the minute de-
tails now considered essential
Even more onesided than the Buff
falo contest, although fewer runs
were scored, was a game between
Chicago and Memphis, in 1870, the
former winning by 157 to 1 In the
same year two Cleveland clubs, the
Forest Citys and Atlantics, played a
five-inning game; called on account
of darkness. which was won by the
first named club 1872 to !. In one
inning the Forest Ctys got SO runs,
and in another So.
On one day in 1855 the Philadel-
phia Athletics defeated Williamsport
in the morning 101 to s, and in the
afternoon triumphed over the DAN
Vile Alerts 1872 to IL, Having made
263 runs in nine hours, the Athlet-
les knocked off and called it a day.
| With the coming of professional
| ism in 1869 games with such tremen-
dous scores became less frequent, but
fessional clubs in America, the
delphia Athletics, ran up scores OF
! 81 and As, with the Athletics on the
short end
The biggest score in the Nationa'
league in 1876, it's first year, was
Chicago 80. Louisville Z. This bic
league mark was surpassed in 1882
when Chicago got 3 5 runs in game
with Cleveland. which put over four
The following year Chicago defeated
Buffalo 81 to z. The major league
record was set up in 1897, when the
Louisville Colonels fell before Chi,
cago, So to Z.

 Nor does the name matter It does not affect the .pitifuiness of the story. It does not make the facts less worth, the telling. Maybe 1t may do good by serv- ing as a warning to too optimistic artists or too coldly careful critics
 The story will best be told in three chapters. The first introduces us to the tragic retreat of the sSsr an nat.on ehsn overwhelmed by Bulgar and Austrian. ln those dark days the Serbs had to leave all they had behind-home and country, too The majority of them hard ly escaped with their lives. This Ser hian sculptor was one of them. He got away with his wife and family. His villa home were left to the ruthless foa But he managed to save valuable securi- ties and his beloved sculptures. How he managed to fly with all this I do no, know. but I do know that he at last reached the safe refuge of London. So in the second chapter we find him
 happily at home in the British capital
 All his troubles seemed over at last. His l securities were enoH gh for him to cer his wife and family in comfort Ou there in Serbia before the war he had been sculptor of <h' re'use H -or. was good. His art was everything tc him. London had just acclaimed the work of another Serbian sculptor, Mes. | trovics. Mestrovics was unknown tc England until an exhibition of his work

exhibition came just At the time when the heart of England was beating In sympathy with Serbia. The tragic trials of the great little nation had made every thing Serbian dear to England. And so Serbian sculpture, represented by the master works of Mestrovics, had an un- expected and undoubted success Mes srovics became a popular hero. The rug EednesS the bizar rsf-.A 4a AQs- city of his work appealed to a public sur feited with art conventions.
 This was the promising situation which faced the compatriot of Mestrovics 'I will have an exhibition" he said to his friends.

 The third chapter Is the story of tragedy of chilling silence. The poor artist did not know the strange ways Of publicity or popular crAzes He did not realize that there could not be two Mestrovics.

PRETTY ENGLISH TOWN OWNED BY
 YOUTHFUL DUKE
Tragic Romance of Lord Arundel, Son of Duke of Norfolk = King and
 Queen in ScOtland
By LADY MARY.

EDndou. September 1O.-(Special. )-This month Is often chosen by those who can not actually be tout of town" for the whole of September to go for weekend motor trips into the country. Unless one happens to be lucky enough to be able to join a shooting party on the moors or to seek some foreign watering place, this sort of pleasure jaunt Is particularly all turing. Last weekend, for instance, motored via Brighton to the wonderful little Sussex town of Arundel, that is owned by the Duke of Norfolk
 To the modern mind Arundel seems to possess many of the qualities of a feudal township over which the owner of the land used to reign 50 despoticaly. The great castle of Arundel rises majesticaI- fy on hill above the steep winding street and all the houses and the shops. the church, the graveyard, the bridge over the little river seem to cluster con- Sdingly under the shelter and protection of the splendid towers and turrets and terraces that are special features of this enormous ducai residence. It may be remembered that the father of the pres ent duke died within the past three years and in his place reignS the heir a boy of about IA years of age. The story of how the lad became a duke is one of those romances of the English peerage that make enthralling pages in history.
 Many years ago the late Duke of Nor folk who, like his present young suc- cessor, was Premier Duke of England and the head of the English branch of the Roman Catholic church, earl mar shal, hereditary marshal and chief butler of England (thess titles were created in 14gs), married a daughter of the Coun- tess of Loudoun. Shortly after his mar riage and before the birth of a son this poor lady went mad. The boy who was subsequently, born and who succeeded to

Practical Indian Educatiou

 To many 1t has not seemed wise tc sdvs- cate Indians out of their environment Nothing ever has besn CT wffsos gained in teaching a younger generation con tempt for those who brought them into the world. Nor has anything been accom- piished in returning young students to their homes aliens in speech, in dress and in manners. Bishop Thomas of Wyom- ing. therefore in his Arapahoe mission decided that the institutional idea should be put in the background. The school was to be a home It was to be an ln- dian school and home where improvement was to be the thing desired, not trans formed. There the effort should De, not to make white men out of the Indians but to make them Indians plus.

The workers limit themselves to the same conditions under which the Indians are obliged to live in- stead of teaching the girls to cook on huge kitchen ranges, such as they them selves will never have-for practically all our Indians today live in tents-they are taught to cook on little stoves such as are used in sheep wagons throughout the west They are inexpensive, portaoie' economical as regards fuel, and extremeiy efficient, just such stoves as our glris ought to use when they return 10 their own camps.
