Cincinnatis plan to start the sea- son with an all-rookie infield went to smash when the Reds decided that First Baseman John Mize, hampered by an old leg injury was no bargain at $5O,OO0 and returned him to the Cardinals.
 Perhaps it is just as well that
 Sunny Jim Bottomley is in there at first base for there is no telling what the rookie quartet might have done without the steadying influ- ence of veteran big leaguer. Jim will supply the needed balance and afford the youngsters steady tar get.
 The Reds have spent in the neigh5orhood of $200,000 on rockies in years time. The team is com posed nearly two-thirds of fresh men" so it is evident that Cin- cinnati has definitely committed it. self to the plan of developing youth ful talent, both eyes to the future.
 In Billy Myers, the sensational shortstop from Columbus, they have one of the choice rockies of the 1895 crop So highly did the Reds management regard Myers that they honored him with the team cap taincy even before he had shown his wares in a Cincinnati uni form.
 Terry Passed Up Myers
 Billy came to the Reds by way of the New York Giants. Bill Ter " paid Columbus $30,000 for his release but in December sent him along to Cincinnati in exchange for Mark Koenig and pitcher Allyn Stout, when the Giants manager had an opportunity to buy Dick Bartell from the Phillies.
 Myers began his professional ca reer in 1928 with Waynesboro. Pa. of the Blue Ridge league. He was with the Cardinals for month or so late in 1883.
 Apparently the Reds have also picked up fine pitching prospect in Ray Davis, the big right handler from the Texas league. Davis won 19 games for Fort Worth, a seventh place club which only on the last day of the season managed to beat out Oklahoma City and escape the cellar

CARRY MORE INSURANCE

Minneapolis. - The average in
sured family has 80 per cent more
cash in the bank today than it had
in 1888, and has reduced the mort
gage on its home by 10 per cent in
the same two-year period, accord
ing to survey of 10000 policy
holder families by the Northwest
ern National Life Insurance COM
pany In Minneapolis.
An average reserve of 1856 per
family of cash on hand and in
banks, was reported as of. the
spring of 1898 in response to the
insurance company's questionable;
this compares with S464 per fam
lily at the present time, an increase
of S10S, or 80 per cent.
A reduction in the size of the
average mortgage from $3,464 was
shown in the reports. Approximate
ly 40 per cent of the policy hold
ers investigated were home own
ers; the average home valuations
was S5,301. Half of the homes
owned were clear Of encumbrances
the remaining 30 per cent were
mOrtgaged
The average amount of life insur-
ance owned per family was $7710
in 1888, and $3.50 in 1885, an in
crease of So per cent.
The average net worth of each
family, including the equity in
home, but exclusive of life in
surance, was S2,953 in the spring
of 1888. and had risen to S3,44O
two years later, the survey showed.
an increase in average wealth of
16 per cent The 10000 families
were selected at random from pol
icy holder lists.
A special survey of urban hous-
ing conducted in 81 cities by the
United States Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce showed
reduction in the average mortgage
on Owner-occupied homes of 800
per cent from 1888 to 1884. The
fact that the reduction for the two
years from '33 to 80 totaled 1922
per cent in the insurance company's
survey would seem to indicate that
the average family is paying off its
obligations at an increasingly
rapid rate, the report concludes.

OLD ROME PORT
REVEALS PAST
ExcavatOrS at OStia Bare
Many Ancient TOmbs and
Old Residences
MANY FINE PICTURES

Rome.-The excavations being
conducted at Ostia, the ancient
port of Rome. are beginning to
rival, at least in the popular fancy,
those at Herculaneum and Pom
peii. While the two Graeco-Roman
cities of the Neapolitan Campania
were almost entirely dedicated to
leisure and elegant life, Ostia
thrived with commercial life and
its people were principally manu-
facturers, merchants, small capital
lists, clerks and sailors.
1T was population always on
the move and alert" says the Agen-
Zia dItalia of Rome, "and having
dealings with merchants and brok-
ers and travellers coming from
every part of the ancient world.
Thls explains Ostia's appearance,
very different from Pompeii. with
It's large number of 'insulae,' which
in ancient Rome were the type
of houses used by the lower and
middle classes.
Ancient Tombs Unearthed.
THE discovery made a few days
ago in the excavations along the
southern side of Ostia, near the
new motor road going to the
Roman Lido, will attract especially
the attention of archeologists. It
consists of mass of tombs, some
Of which seem to 90 as far back
as the epoch of Augustus and ap-
pear to be very singular in their
type and structure These excava-
tions were made on an area of
about 100 meters on one side and
80 on the other.
"A road, Roman paved, shows the
beginning of the newly explored
area, passing along two rows of
buildings recently excavated. A lit
tie further on are some stairs at
the end of which is a square show
ing on the left side the molding
of a stone monument. on quad
rangular basis. almost five meters
high. 1t is one of the most char
acteristic Roman tombs of the
imperial epoch, Of style reserved
for wealthy families.
In the central part of the area
eXcavated. both on the right and
on the left. are cubicles, nearly all
built with curved vaults. with
inches of various sizes cut into the
walls.
Many Fine Pictures.
"On the walls are remarkable
paintings and stucco. One picture
is three meters wide and two me-
ters high and represents a lion de-
vouring the head of an OK.
Painted under the central screen
is another representing a crocodile,
boat with two pigmies rowing,
also two ducks. one with a pigmy
riding on its back.
Another picture, in a niche, rep
resents a woman sitting in front
Of a small table and a human fig-
ure with wings. On the right are
a peacock and some other birds
and on the small vault a bird look
ing very much like a crane.
These pictures are astonishing
ly like those of the Empress Lina's
'ninfeum' at Saxa Rubra. In a
enclosed in an urn, are
many animal bones, most probably
sheep bones, belonging presumably
TO animals sacrificed according to
pagan rites. Every tomb is COW
cred with inscriptions containing
the names of the dead"

SUDDEN DEATH OF
AMBROSE ]. RUTLEDGE


Ambrose ]. Rutledge, a corporal
in the U. S. Marine Corps, at An
napolis, Md, died in the Naval
Academy, on Saturday, the Balti-
more Sun states from an overdose
of laudanum. A letter written to
his mother and sister here the first
of the week stated that he was not
feeling well but hoped to be all
right in few days. Nothing fur
ther was heard from him until a
telegram on Saturday afternoon,
to his sister, Miss Hester Rut-
ledge, clerk in the postoffce, stat
ing that he was dead. The news
was Of course shock to her and
her mother, especially as they were
in the dark as to the cause of his
death. He left here five years ago
and had only reached his twenty
fourth year when he died. When
"a lad, before leaving here, he ex-
hibited considerable pluck to make
his way in the world through ad-
verse circumstances, and was a
strong hope to his mother. His
remains were brought on from An
napolis and inferred here yester-
day. Rutledge was a favorite
among the marines at the bar
racks. In his leisure hours he
studied law with James H. Hodges,
of Annapolis. He was about 25
years old. His mother and sister
here do rot think in any sense that
the death was the result of suicidal
intent. He has for years, they
say, been subject to neuralgia, suf-
fering at times a great deal Of pain
and to ameliorate this they think
he took more than he was aware
of. His time in the marine ser
vice would have expired in about
six months.
