WuE MADE the amende honorable,

This is an idea we frequently see
clothed in the language indicated, the
Implication being that the person re-
ferrea to, having in some way Offend
ed, did whatever was required Of him
to pacify those he had wronged.
The amende honorable might be
public admission of false accusation,
coupled with an apology and retrat-
tion. 1t might be acknowledgment of
injury unwittingly done and compen-
sation therefor.
\ Curiously enough, this significance
Of the expression is quite reversal
from the trend of its original mean

DR.. Phelps Anti-DoR Weapon

When took my first bicycle tour In
Germany, I noticed that the German
wheelmen carried whip in a recep-
tacle attached to the handlebars. Up
on inquiry, it was for dogs. I carried
no whip, for L found a more excellent
way. When chased by Infatuated dogs,
which happened three or four times
every day, waited till the monster
got close. Then leaning over, l spit
in his eye, becoming with practice ua-
cannily accurate. The animal invari-
ably retired. 1t wasn't the heat, it
was the humidity. - William Lyon

Roaming Buffalo Once
Looked Jnon as Pest

New Zealand complains that it has
too many deer and wild pigs and not
enough hunters. Red deer imported
to the country have retired to noun
tain Businesses, multiplied rapidly and
now descend on farms and grazing
lands. The government, to afford
some relief, has sent out shooting
parties one of which got 700 deer and
another 500 deer. The hides Of these
animals were sold at 81 each, but no
mention is made of the destination OF
the venison.
What the deer overlook the wild
pigs root up. So great are the raw
ages of these descendants of docile
British porkers that the government
pays a bounty of 25 cents for each
snout turned in, but the farmers COM
plain that there seems to be no
diminution In the numbers Of the
wild pigs.
Perhaps it Is merely clever adver-
tisement of New Zealand as para
disc for hunters. 1t has that attrac-
tive sound. But If there is situa-
ton as bad as pictured, the New Zea-
landers should not give up hope of
early relief. Just recently W. A. Hoy,
veteran of the Civil war, who has
lived in the Black Hills since the
early '70s, was complaining of the
buffalo in the early days. eve were
held up three days and three nights
going through one buffalo herd and all
the time we could either hear or see
buffalos." That was fifty years ago
and now the only buffalos in the Black
hills are those in the state park for
the tourist to gaze at. Fifty years
hence New Zealand will be urging
conservation of game and passing
laws for closed seasons.

Early Episcopal Bishop

The first Protestant Episcopal bishop
to be consecrated in the United States
after the break with the English
church was Samuel Seabury, who was
sent to England to be consecrated
bishop of Connecticut, but the English
bishop found a difficulty in consecrat-
ing one unable to take the prescribed
oath (Which includes fealty). There
upon Seabury repaired to the nonjur-
ing bishop Of Scotland and was conse-
Grated November, 1884, at Aberdeen,
Scotland, by Bishops Robert J. Kilgore,
Arthur Petrie and John Skinner. La

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Nov. IL John Shibe, president of the Phil adelphia Athletics and part owner of the Portland Club of the Pacific Coast League; Tom Turner, presi- dent of the Portland Club, and Robert Schroeder, secretary of the Athletics stopped over in San Fran cisco the other day on their way to Los Angeles, where deals are pending for the sale of the Portland franchise.
 Shibe and Turner admitted thas two parties, Oscar Witt, manager of Hollywood, and Bill Essiek, for mer Vernon manager and now a scout of the New York Yankees are interested
 Witt has two business men of Oakland backing him, while William H. Mccarthy, former president of the Mission Club and of the Pa- cific Coast League, is said to be interested
 Essick has Lou Anger and Joe Schenck, motion picture magnates, ready to put up the cash, also, it is understood that the Yankees will assist EJsick in financing the deal if the proper terms can be secured.
 Turner wants around S750,o0o for the Portland franchise, which in cludes two foreign pieces of proper ty valued around $400,000.
 The price asked for the fran chise is fair, but so far the deal is held up by inclusion of outside property.

 My one and only first-hand op-
 portunity to make a comparison
 leads me to the belief that they
 (the boys and girls) are more inter-
 ested in whether Rudy Vallee is
 about to be ushered down to lead
 the Yale band than they are in who has the ball and where he is going.
 The thought struck me that if someone had spread companion rumor that Frank Butterworth or
 Ted Coy or Foster Rockwell was walking down an aisle, the question
 from anyone about us would have
 been: "Yes, but who is he?"

AS an example of how things car grow in football, take the touchdown from the kickoff with which young MT. Austin Downes of the Univer- slty of Georgia shocked the boys ir blue at New Haven one October Saturday.
 As Q detached anI unbiased ob- server, occupying a dollar seat in preference to making delayed off tackle thrust for the press shed I spotted Downes as he scooped up the pigskin just inside his own 3c-yard line, hesitated long enough for interference to form and then spovted forth from mass of white jerseys into the clear.
 In short, the nimble legged Geor- gian scampered slightly over 70 yards for the one and only touch down ever scored against Yale on the opening kickoff in the cele- brated Bowl.
 It was somewhat amazing to read the next day variety of accounts in which the run of Downes was described as being anywhere from 65 to 83 yards No two experts agreed. There was no official box score of the proceedings and your guess is as good as mine.
 In Texas paper fortnight lat CT I found a paragraph referring to the same play as ''90-yard dash by Dewnes The farther the story goes the longer the run becomes.
 Of course this has nothing to do with the personal ability of Austin Downes, who on this particular af- ternoon gave a much more polished and successful performance at quar- terback than the celebrated Little Boy in Blue, Albie Booth.
 The point that it seems to take us several paragraphs to emphasize concerns the inaccuracy of football reporting or exporting. By now . it seems pretty generally acKnOWl- edged, even by the experts them selves that it's impossible to pick 'em. It's too easy for a couple of long passes or a few blocked kicks { to upset all the dope. Yet it would seem comparatively simple for any set of trained and experienced ob- server to spot any conspicuous play and agree on the essential facts Of location, distance covered, etc. These features should be clear even if there is plenty of excuse for being hay about who has the ban and who, if any body, tackled him. I have yet to encounter any unanimity on anything except the final score and nowadays one can't 2 even be too sure of that, if an H. ! legal touchdown or so happens to be concealed in the days preceed- ings.
