| IN THE SPORTING WORLD, s
When the Carlisle Indians played
football last year, they aroused little
interest and were looked upon as freaks
of the Barnum order. The public soon
learned their mistake and began to ap
preciate the red men. “Old Eli’s” su
premacy was in danger when the Yale
kickers lined up against the Carlisle
boj's. Every mass formation attempted
by the eollegiaus was promptly check
mated. by the Indians, who bore back
their pale face rivals for substantial
gains. Metoxen, Cayou and Bemis
Pierce crashed through the Yale lino re
peatedly.
When at last victory perched on the
blue banner, it was only because the
red men were deficient in the finer
points of the game. In the simpler tac
tics and slow plays, or where Brown
would make the gain, the Indians could
not be surpassed, but they were woeful
ly lacking in knowledge of the intricate
formations that constitute the strength
of the college elevens. Their kicking
was miserable and would have been
beaten by almost any high school team.
This season all is changed, and the
Carlisle warriors will be on a level with
their pale face opponents. Bull, the old
Yale full back, and Vance McCormick,
another famous old timer from the
same institution, have been engaged to
coach the aborigines. Work lias already
begun at Carlisle, and from all accounts
the red men are proving apt scholars.
Bull will soon bring about a wonder
ful improvement in their kicking, and
McCormick is sure to smooth out the
rough spots in the line. Many of the
Yale tricks will be imparted to them,
and when Old Eli’s sons line up against
Carlisle this year they will have but
• little advantage so far as coaching is
concerned. Only one of last year’s elev
en has graduated from the Indian
school, and a score of lusty braves have
come forward to try for scalps on the
gridiron.—New York Journal.
Another Test Case.
The new residence rule of the Ama
teur Athletic union will receive another
test as a result of the swimming cham
pionship races of the Atlantic associa
tion held recently at the Wayne nata
torium. William T. Lawless, the cham
pion swimmer of Canada, was entered
under the colors of the National Swim
ming association of Philadelphia. W.
B. Curtis of the New York A. C. object
ed to Lawless competing from the Phila
delphia club, so he swam under protest.
Mr. Curtis thinks that he swam in
direct violation of the new residence
rule of the A. A. U., which reads as
follows: “No person shall be eligible
to compete for or to enter any competi
tion as a member of any club in tho
territory of any member of this union
unless he shall have resided within the
territory of said active member at least
80 days previous to entering for compe
tition. ” In this rule the word “mem
ber” refers to the district associations
of the union. The National Swimming
association. is not a club in the strict
sense of the term, but enrolls swimmers
from all parts of the country upon pay
ment of a small fee. Mr. Curtis says
that Lawless never resided in Philadel
phia for the required time and was
therefore ineligible. The Swimming as
sociation asserts in an attempt to justify
its position that Lawless was a member
of the-organization before the passage
of the nonresidence rule. The cases of
Wenck and Dickey will also be brought
to the attention of the national board
in November.—Exchange.
Athletic Golfers.
Athletes are turning their attention
to golf, and there were quite a number
who took part in the recent national
tournament that made reputations for
themselves on college teams. W. A.
Heffelfinger, the famous Yale guard, is
one of the latest to turn his attention to
the Scotch game.
One thing that shows the growth of
interest in the game is the number of
new clubs that are being constantly
formed. In every city of any size you
will find a golf club with links, and the
rapidity of their -growth through the
country is surprising. Four years ago
the number of clubs could be counted
on your fingers. Today there are more
than 1,000. —Chicago Record.
Not Likely to Meet.
Reports have been in circulation re
cently that Peter Maher and Tom Shar
key would meet in New York soon to
arrange another meeting or at least to
complete the negotiations that were be
gun before the heavyweights started for
Ireland. Both men are now in this
country, but fight seems far from the
mind of either. This much ip certain-

Ordinary Clearly Outclassed.
A trial of cycling speed between an
ordinary and a safety was made lately
at Charles River park, Boston. The rid
ers were Dr. Brown, the quarter mile
competitive record holder, and Geotge.
M. Hendee, ah, old time champioif on
the high wheel. The trial was for an
eighth of a mile against time, and the
safety clearly demonstrated its superi
ority. The time made was 12 4-5 sec

seconds by the ordinary. Both riders
were in perfect condition, and each thor

Forgeries.
This method of detecting forgeries
has been devised by Professor M. Bruy
lants, professor of chemistry in the Uni
• versify of Louvain The portion of a
document which is suspected of having
been altered is first moistened, and
then, after being dried, is exposed to
the action of vapor of iodine. The por
tion thus moistened, if it has been al
tered, assumes a violet tint, while the
other portion appears a brownish yel
low. This action is evidently due to
the removal of a portion of the starch
contained in the size of the paper. The
same process will even reveal the exist
ence of pencil marks erased by rubbing.

When a brother in the church wants
to marry a sister, he does not make his
wish known directly to her, but goes to
the minister and tells him his secret.
The minister, if pleased with the match,
carries the lover’s message. The sister
is usually surprised, as this is supposed
to be her first intimation of the young
man’s love. If the proposal is received
with favor, the negotiations are carried
on by the minister. The ceremony al
ways takes place in a church. No in
vitations are issued, but the banns are
proclaimed from the pulpit two weeks
beforehand. During this period the
groom is permitted to visit his intended
without the intervention of a third
party. After the wedding a dinner is
always served, after which bride and
groom go to their respective homes and
remain- apart for several days. The
marriages in the church are generally
happy ones, and there is no record of
any of the members ever suing for di
vorce.—Philadelphia Record.

Old residents tell a story about an
Indian who, on being presented with an
old fashioned, heavy, cast iron stove,
which he thought could be sold at a
foundry, packed it on his squaw’s back
to be transported thither, he carrying
their child and marching beside her.
Soon he became tired of the child and
shoved it into the stove on his wife’s
back and then continued his way to the
foundry. —Portland Oregonian.
Bristles From Abroad.
Almost all the bristles used in this
country in the manufacture of brushes
are imported, and notwithstanding the
increased production of pork in this,
country the supply of American bristles
is now even smaller than it formerly
was. Hogs are fattened and killed young
in this country, and with the constant
and widespread improvement of the
breeds here the hogs have run less to
bristles. Some extensive packers collect
bristles, but the American supply is
probably less than 1 per cent of the con
sumption. The longest American bris
tles areabout 4)£ inches in length.
Imported bristles come from various
parts of Russia, but most largely from
Poland and north Germany. Some finer,
soft bristles come from Franco. The bulk,
of tho supply comes from cold countries,
where , the hogs are well protected by
thick coats, and many of the bristles
are those of wild hogs. Tho hogs shed
their coats as many other animals do,
and there are men who gather the bris-

ties of wild hogs, knowing their haunts
and where the bristles are to be found.
Other bristles are collected in the usual
manner when the hogs are killed. The
bristles are subjected to various proc
esses of, curing and preparation before
they become commercial bristles and
ready for the market.
Imported bristles range from 3% to
inches in length. Various vegetable
fibers are now used extensively in the
manufacture of • cheaper brushes, but
for many uses bristles are indispensable
and their importation continues steady.

A Matter at Spenma.
It is one of the curious facts that
many of the brightest writers spell
atrociously. That in itself goes a long
way in the practical demonstration that
illiteracy does’ not connect itself with
the art of spelling. Au excellent article
that recently passed through editorship
in this office contained the words “vil
liage, ” “Chineese, ” “prarie,” “par
alell,” “failiure,” “Portugese” and
‘ * loose’ ’ for ‘ ‘ lose. ’ ’ It was an admirable
paper of choice literary quality, and
yet had it been printed as it was -writ
ten the proofreader would have been
open to summary discharge for obvious
and hopeless incompetence.
That humble minister would have
been declared too illiterate to read proof.
Going backward one step, the copy
reader that let such manuscript pass
without alteration would also be open
to discharge. Why? For illiteracy. And
yet the literary quality of the illiterate
ly written article was fine and evident
People are very sensitive about their
looks and their spelling. Next in grav
ity to the charge of being homely is the
charge of being unable to spell. That
seems to carry with it a sort of proof
that bad spelling is discreditable. And
yet the people whom the charge most
hurts are those of Whom it is truest. To
be able to write without being able to
spell is like being able to run without
being able to walk. Those who do it
are a wonder to those who look on.—

THE TRUE ART
OF OSCULATION,
Probably very few young ladies or
gentlemen in Rome need instructions in
the osculatory art, but to . the uniniti
ated the following recipe taken from an
old scrap book may prove a guide to
soothe the troubled flow of true love.
“People will kiss. Yet not one in a
hundred knows how to extract blis,
from lovely lips, any more than they
know how to make diamonds from char
coal. And yet it is easy, at least for
some. First, know whom vou are going
to kiss. Don’t make a mistake, although
a mistake may be good. Don’t jump like
a trout for a fly, and smack a woman on
the neck, or in the ear, or the corner of
her forehead, or on the end of her nose.
The gentleman should be a little the
taller. He should have a good face, a
kind eye, and a mouth full of expression.
Don’t kiss everybody. Don’t sit down to
it. Stand up. Need not be anxious about
getting in a crowd. Two persons are
plenty to corner and catch a kiss; more
persons would spoil the sport. Take the
left hand of the lady in your right; let
your hat go to—any place out of the
way; throw the left hand gently over the
shoulder of the lady, and let it fall down
the right side Do not be in a hnrry;
draw her gently, lovingly, to your heart.
Her head will fall gently on your shoul
der, and a handsome shoulder-strap it
makes. Do not be in a hnrry. Her left
hand is in your right; let there be an im
pression to that, not like the gripe of
a vice, but a gentle clasp, full of elec
tricity, thought, and respect. Do not be
in a hurry. Her head lies carelessb on
your shoulder. You are heart to heart.
Look down into her half closed eyes.
Gently, but manfully, press her to your
bosom. Stand firm. Be brave, but don’t
be in a hurry. Her lips are almost open.
Lean slightly forward with your head,
net the body. Take good aim; the lips
meet; the eyes close, the heart opens;
the soul rides the stoims, troubles, and
sorrows of life (don’t be in a hurry;)
heaven opens before you; the world
shoots under your feet as a meteor
flashes across the evening sky (don’t be
afraid,) the heart forgets its bitterness,
and the art of kissing is learnt ! Nofnss,
no noise, no flutter and squirming like
hook-impaled worms. Kissing don’t
hurt, nor does it require an act of Con
gress to make it legal.”
Small precautions often prevent great
mischiefs. DeWitt’s Little Early Risers
are very small pills in size, but are most
effective in preventing the most serious
forms of liver and stomach troubles.
They cure constipation and headache
