WATERTOWN BOY UNABLE TO RUN

Middlebury, Vt, April 28.-The Middlebury College trackmen are to compete in their second meet of the season against Williams at Williamstown, Saturday.
 Since this is the first week that any intense practice sessions have been possible for the Partners on the cinder track and in the outside jumping pits, Coach Brown expects 8 decided improvement in his team over last Saturdays showing at Wesleyan.
 Both teams appear to have a concentration of power in the run ming events with comparative weak ness in the field events. The chances for the repetition of last years Middlebury victory seem somewhat dubious, although the teams are quite evenly matched.
 Captain Kenneth MacFadyen, Worcester, Mass, is expected to come through for first in the mile run, and John Williams, Fairhaven, to repeat his victory of last year in the hundred yard dash, although the low hurdles are conceded to Moore of Williams.
 John Cridland, Johnstown, N. r., in the hammer throw, and Randall Hoffman, Middletown, N. r., in the pole vault are other probable first place winners for Middlebury. Close contests will be waged for the half- mile with Paul Cushman, Barre, rep resenting Middlebury, and for the broad jump and shot-put by Paul Guarnaccia, Wakefield, Mass.
 The most noticeable weak spots on the Middlebury squad with no im- mediate prospects of repair are the javelin, high jump, and high hur- dies. Donald Westin, Proctor, star javelin thrower of last year, and Paul Foster, Watertown, Conn.,, col- lege record holder in the 440 yard dash, are both temporarily unable to compete.

Heinrich, the youngest Yankee at 21, couldn't make the Zanesville, O., Grays in the spring of 1884.
 From that Cleveland farm club the kid outfielder was shipped to the MOnessen, Pa., club of the Class ID Pennsylvania State League. for which he batted .326 and hit 15 home runs in IDA contests. He cl0uted the ball for the circuit the same number of times in cOmpil- ing an average of .337 in 115 games with Zanesvillc the following cam paign, and hit .333 in finishing the grind with New Orleans.
 Heinrich blOssOmed into star dom playing all fields for the Pelicans last season, leading the Southern Association in total bases, and batting .346. Once more 15 home runs was his maximum and he coupled them with 16 triples and AS doubles.
 A hard Ieft-handed hitter and an accurate left-handed thrower, graceful and fast, Tom Henrich looks the part of the picture ball player that scouts and southern critics raved about.

JAPANESE 4. CABINET CRISIS

lsselo oThesi Japanese government requires
that a senior army officer on the active
list shall be Minister of War. Whenever
the Army group is against Premier all
that is necessary, to bring about his fall,
or prevent the formation of cabinet, is
for the army officers to refuse to serve.
The threat of such action has been
sufficient in the past to upset japanese
governments but the Army has never play
ed its hand more boldly than last week.
The formation of government was de-
layed, if not thrawted, by refusal of of
ficers to serve the man ordered by the
Mikado to form a government. 1t hap
pened that he was a general but this made
no difference with the Army
Just to imagine such a condition in
the United States demonstrates the differ
ence between the two countries. How
ever, Japan appears to be making prog
ress toward parliamentary form of gov
eminent that will be responsible to the
people. Other nations might watch their
chance to help the work along by being
considerable of the problems that confront
liberal governments in Japan.

FIsHY FOLKS

Down in Butler County, Alabama, &C
cording to the Greenville Advocate, is a
colored preacher who has a keen insight
into human nature, particularly as applied
to sizing up the members of his flock. In
recent sermon he likened various types
of church members to certain species OF
fish, somewhat as follows:
Some he said, are like a trout, always
jumping from one church to another.
Others were likened to the sucker easy
to catch, but quick to spoil. Then he mem
toned the founder, which can see only
one way--he sees the faults of the preach
er, but never sees his own. Another type
was compared with the catfish, which
hides on the bottom of the creek until a
freshet arouses hin-the church member
who warns up when a revival is going on,
but lies dormant at other times. Another
type was likened to the eel-a slippery,
slick fellow, hard to handle. And SO on.
While the good colored brothers SER
mon was bit droll, it included observa
tons which might appropriately be ap-
piled, not only to the peculiarities OF
church members, but to those of humanity

kets, where it is sold in competition
with the coal produced by the owners
of the coal lands.
The legitimate operators naturally
find it difficult to meet this COMPETE
ton because the bootleggers. having
no taxes or bond interest to meet. can
undersell the legitimate product. AL
ready the annual 3ltput of the boot
leg mines amounts tc about 5000. 900

The bootIeggers, it should be real

coal mines and stripping the culm

the coal lies near enough to the sur
face to make its extraction by priml-
tive methods feasible. When timber is
needed the bootleggers do not hesi-
tate to take it from the lands belong

Though the state of Pc .nsylvania
has strict mining laws that are in-

I'm THE HEAVENS

Things are happening in the heavens,
according TO responsible astronomers, who
tell us that four exploding stars have been
discovered in the past twelve months and
warn us that if bright star, like the
North star, should suddenly explode it
would dazzle the heavens.
Exploding stars are so-ea1led because
for some unknown reason they suddenly
increase in brilliance, sometimes to many
thousands times their former brightness.
1t is reassuring to remember that
stars are far away and that light, moving
10000 miles second, takes years to
reach this globe. However, man begins to
understand the marvellous balance of the
universe when he realizes that in spite of
vast distances, some happening in stellar
space might, some day, blast the world
and scar the life of all living things.

The bootleggers have become so
accustomed to the existing slate Of
affairs that they ere beginning to
look upon the stealing Of coal as a
vested right; in fact an Independent
Anthracite Miners Association, which
claims membership of 5000. has
been formed to defend their rights
One naturally wonders why the
duly constituted legal authorities do
not take steps to terminate this THEW
ing. The reason seems to be that the
bootleggers are not only numerous
and well organized. but they enjoy the
sympathy and support of many peo-
pie, including local business men who
are profting from the illegal activi-
ties.
The coal companies, which are UNI
popular. have found that local grand
jurieS will not ifdIct the men ac-
cused of stealing coal, or if they do
return an indictment, local petty
juries will not convict. The local poll
ticians, who are quick to gauge the
state of public opinion, thus give their
support to the bootleggers. The conn
panies, of course, might bring indi-
fAAOd1 SuAt1 LII itGSRdoo VI dSh Tie
courts to enjoin the illegal activities
of the trespassers, but under the cir
|cumstances, such measures do not
offer much hope of relief
It might still be supposed that the
coal companies could get protection
from the state officials, but this has
not proven to be the case. The Gov
ernor of the state takes the position
that the local authorities have not
asked for help, and until a1ey do he
will not interfere.
A state of anarchy thus exists in
the state of Pennsylvania but the
duly constituted authorities do not
propose to do anything about it.
Even the Federal Government must
accept share Of the responsibility
for this illegal condition. for a large
percentage of the bootleg miners are
also on the relief rolls. The Govern
ment is thus paying relief to people
who are openly engaged IL thleving
operations.
