Royalty Fond of Sport.

Another member of the British
royal family who has been taking a
keen interest in sport is Prince Albert.
He has lately been seen quite fire.
Quently at Walton heath, where he
plays golf with much keenness. In
spite of his enthusiasm, however. he
admits that so far he is-to use his
ow nwords-"a rotten player"
Princess Mary, whose love for hunt
ing has called forth much admiration,
fully deserves the title of ''the open
air princess which was once given
her. Young as she is, she can hold
her own in most sports. Her training
includes every game and athletic &C
complishment adjudged suitable for
her She can drive, ride, swim. cycle,
dance, play golf and hockey, cook,

OKAT0RY NEVER MERE TALK
Lord Brougham Has Pointed Out the
Great Difference That Exists
Between the Two.

The truth is that a certain prof.
cheney in public speaking may be at
tanned with nearly infallible certainty
by any person who chooses to give
himself the trouble of frequently try
ing it, and can harden himself against
the pain of frequent failures. Com
plete self-possession and perfect flu
ency are thus acquired, almost me-
chanically, and with little or no ref
erence to the talents of him who be-
comes possessed of them. If he is q
man Of no capacity, his speeches will
Of course be very bad; but though he
be man Of genius, they will not be
eloquent. A sensible remark or a fine
image may frequently occur; but the
loose and slovenly and poor diction,
the want of art in combining and dis
posing his ideas, the inability to bring
out many Of his thoughts, and the ut
ter incompetency to present any of
them In the best and most efficient
form, will deprive such q speaker of
all claims to the character of an ora
tor, and reduce him to the level of an
ordinary talker.-Henry Lord Brough-

Francisco wharf on their way to
death, waiting for scow, when they
turned upon their drivers, put them to
rout and leaped as enc ton of pork

them in the manner of whale fishers,
but the pigs could not be pulled
aboard, and they, on the other hand,
succeeded in pulling some of the sail
ors over the side. When last seen the
pigs were still swimming out toward
the sunset.

Straw Hat Season.

The exact date upon which man
may appear each year wearing straw

daring. Generally in the Pacific coast
states the early days Of May bring out

Alaska-popularly believed to be q

Many ball players have fads of one
kind and another. A brief list might
be- instructive.
Lena Blackburne, who has played
shortstop on many teams, collects PEN
nants from the various cities he
visits.
4 Joe Benz has an account of every
game he has ever pitched pasted away
in scrap book.
Dutch Leonard has a passion for
talking machines, and spends much
OF his spare cash purchasing records.
Strong for Flowers.
Eddie Collins is strong for flow
ers, and picks up a rose bush here
and new kind Of plant there for his
garden back in suburb Of Phila-
delphia.
A large number of players keep
scrap books. Ed Walsh has pile Of
them large enough to stock small
library. Few players have had so
many features written about them as
Walsh has enjoyed, and many day
he filed from one to four pages in his
book.
Ed also picked up pictures Of
himself in action. and has fixed up
baseball den at his home in Meri-
den, Conn.,, which is said to be
one of the finest Of its kind in the
country.
Eddie Cicotte is another who keeps
scrap book. His fondest hope is
some day to place an account of his
no-hit game in this volume. He has
nearly everything else.
