| 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.

That $20,000 sham offer from iSan Francisco has given the heavyweights an exagger ated idea of their importance as an at traction, and it is doubtful whether the men will ever come together if they wait for an equally alluring bid.—New York Sun. 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 onds by the modern wheel and 17 2-5 seconds by the ordinary. Both riders were in perfect condition, and each thor oughly understood his mount McCracken’s Summer Job. McCracken, the huge weight thrower of the University of Pennsylvania, has spent a very pleasant vacation during the past summer. Everybody knows how pleasant it is to be an autocrat McCracken held down the position of sergeant of police at Woodside, Pa., and twirled a club and mustache instead of a 16 pound hammer during the past season )f heated athletic competition. Running sores, indolent ulcers and similar troubles, even though of many year’s standing, may be cared by using DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve. It soothes strengthens and heals. It is the great pile cure. 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. —Public Opinion. To Cuie a Cold in One Diy. Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

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- TflE HOME TBIBUNE, SUNDAY. OCTOBER 10. 1891. 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. —New York Sun. 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.— Hartford Courant. Arnold’s Bromo-Celery. The greatest remedy of the 19th century for headaches, lOcts.

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 a '.d regulate the bowels. For sale by curry-Arrington Companv Ga.
