IS OLD LONDON PLAYGROUND
Hyde Park Has for Centuries Been
the Scene of Amusements Dear
to Engiishmen.

In Hyde park, London, nearly every
has been practiced at one time or an
other. In 1850 the French ambassa-
dor hunted there with the king. In
1878 the Duke Casimir KILLED a bar
rem doe with his piece in Hyde park
from among 800 other deer" In the
reign of Charles l the park became
celebrated for its foot and horse races
round the ring, the dusty mill-horse
drive" as Lady Malapert calls it.
Shall we make fling to London"
wrote Richard Bronze, land see how
the spring appears there in the spring
gardens; and in Hyde park, to see the
races, horse and foot; to hear the
tockies crack?'
Racing in the ring was one of the
greatest attractions in the park, and
some Of the meetings were thought
to be of great Importance, as even
among the state papers there is pre-
served the agreement for race that
took place there. Charles l mixed
freely with his subjects ON these occa-
sions, but, looking on the royal park
as his own possession, he once ordered
the election of Berkshire squire,
whom he referred to as an ugly ras-
CAL" The ugly rascal overheard
the phrase. He went away. quietly,
but vowed vengeance, and gradually
embittered the whole of his country
against the king. He had, indeed, his
revenge, for writ large on Charles rs
death warrant was the name Of the
ugly rascal"

ARISTOCRATS OF
RUSSIA PEDDLERS
Once Naughty Officers eof OLD
Regime Are Now PenniIess
in Turkish Capital.
ONE TRAGEDY OF GREAT WAR
Every Street In constantinople 10
Crowded With Refugees From Rus
sia-Wives and Daughters in
Mental Occupations.

Constantinople.-Wh Russia was
the Slav dream to march into Constan-
tinople.
Well, the Russians in their thou
sands have reached this city, but their
presence means not a triumph. but one
Of the great tragedies of the aftermath
of the war.
The allies, and especially France,
backed and financed a number of at
tempts on the part Of Russians to
break down the Bolshevist government
and substitute one that would do bust
ness with western Europe.
The last of these mercenary armies
was the one led by General Wrangel,
who at one time was master Of the
Crimea.
But just as soon as the Bolsheviks
secured peace with Poland, they
smashed Wrangel to smithereens. The
Crimea witnessed one of the greatest
Fcrambles in history.
Soldiers and their leaders, civilians
and their wives and families, clamored
for ships to take them away before
the avenging Bolsheviks came in.
The vessels which were finally sup
piled for the refugees were damned
beyond human endurance.
Filled With Refugees.
Thousands Of the survivors Of this
page Of recent history were brought to
Constantinople.
Every street in Constantinople is
crowded with them. Near this city
you may see broad-faced Mongolians
and Kalmuck Tartars, who were once
in Wrangeps army, working on the
railway tracks.
In the city itself the Russians have
largely turned to peddling.
Their wives and sisters and daugh-
tiers have taken to waiting in little res
taurants or washing dishes or scrub
bling floors or doing family washing.
Many have been forced by sheer
want into immortality.
And there are thousands who have
no visible means Of support. They sell
nothing. They do not work. They SIM
Many of them have shirts, but no
coats If you see them with coats but
toned up to the neck, you may know
that they have neither shirt nor I'M
dershirt underneath. In this blazing
hot oriental weather many of them go
about with great, long, heavy cossack
coats whose collars and sleeves are
trimmed with thick astrachan.
Shift for Themselves.
Men who were once officers in the
czar's army and later in WrangeIs
forces still go about with their epau-
wicked-looking Russian officers dagger
at his side.
1t would seem that with this great
influx of one-time soldiers of adven-
ture, made desperate by want, there
would be great increase of petty
crimes. But the $500 Turkish police
have held crime in check.
For considerable period the French
authorities undertook to feed the 1OO,-
600 Russian refugees, the only stipula-
ton being that they should seek work
to make themselves self-supporting.
But work was the very thing that the
great majority of them did not want.
They seemed to think the allies were
under some sort of obligation to main
tain them In idleness. The result was
that the French felt compelled to with
draw all assistance and allow them to
shift for themselves.-Milton Bronner.

The quest has reached the acute stage

Mask. His escape, with lock and bolt
untouched, would mystify both mob
and sheriff. They would ascribe it to
the dread powers with which popular
fancy had invested his name.
But In the rabble that would curse
and clamor about the old Jail there
would be one pair of eyes that the
loosened bar would not escape, a pair
of eyes that would find it as sure as
the morning came, and read the riddle
at glance. And they would be ewes
capable of finding trail-and follow
ing it. Much as it went against him.
therefore, he turned his steps east in
stead of west and plunged in among
the clumped underbrush that grew
along the top of the cliff.
Crossing the river road was the
problem. Choosing place where the
grass came close to the track on each

pain leaves 1t at the turn, he leaped
across, and using considerable care to
hide his trail, picked his way down

The picture dissolved. A breath he-

was on on the long, lanky Jog. The
memory had brought half longing to
traverse the path again, but prudence
warned him to keep away. The sharp.

SYSTEM IN REGULAR SAVING
Money Should Be Made Easy to De-
posit and Then Comparatively
Hard to Withdraw.
(TO BE CONTINUED,

"The only way for man regularly
to save money, unless he be one of
those individuals possessed of an ex-
traordinarily unrelenting character"
according to Samuel Crowther, writing
in System, the Magazine of Business,
"is for the money to be passed into the
savings account before it reaches him
that is. to put him in the position,
once he has made his resolution. of
having to make another resolution to
quit saving in order to stop the process.
FINALLY, take the convenience of
withdrawal. A man will rightly hesi-
tate about going into any system of
saving which locks up his funds for
any long period of time. The average
worker has no great. margin between
income and outgo and he has to be pre-
pared for rainy day-for q birth, for
death, for long illness. He cannot

AS a means for giving Macs pitch
ers a workout under conditions ap-
proximating those encountered in. a
real battle, the affair was more or
less of a success. Five OF them saw
service. Schacht, Zachary and Acosta,
who officiated on the mound for the
Nationals, each travelled three rounds.
Al allowing two hits. Jezebel, three. and
Jose. none.
Erickson started for the visitors.
and as long as he fingered the game
was close, the one tally obtained on
him being due to strong-arm heaving
by the youngsters behind him. The
collegiate fingers who followed him
were both wild and ineffective, the
Griffithian recruits piling up tallies
in punches.
Brower was lent to the visitors
in the seventh and was found for five
bingles and as many runs. but the
hits were largely due to the brand OF
support he was accorded.
Aside from the work given the
earnest and well-meaning scribes by
the collegians. who shifted positions
frequently and batted in whatever or
der suited their fancy. there were no
features save, possibly. Goebefs base

first on FIVE of his six appearances
and never failed to score. streaking
around the bases like scared rabb:t.

only appearance at bat.

forenoon being excused from work after
