When Amby took off his shoe the other day after being spiked his foot was covered with blood, but he gamely walked to the car without assistance after Tralner Buckner had cauterized the wou Genius and Appetite. Sir Francis Galton held that a good appetite is one of the attributes of genius. “Most notabilities have been great eaters and excetlent digesters on the same principle that the furnace which can rajse more steam than is usual for one of its size must burn more freely and well than is common.” Scott was of the same opinion. In a letter to Canning respecting an article promised to the Quarterly Review he advises him to break the neck of it after a hearty meal, “preferably of bolled chicken.” And he practiced what he preached, for, like Tennyson, Dickens, Thackeray and many other nineteenth century authors, Scott was an excellent trencherman. — London Chronicle. The Longest Fast. The record for fasting, so far as our best iuformation goes, is held by Graine, a French murderer, who de- termined to starve himself to death and from day to day after his arrest refused to eat. In spite of every effort on the part of his keepers, who first tried to tempt him to eat by placing the most dainty meals in his cell and ‘when that falled attempted feeding him by force, he held out for sixty- three days, at the end of which period hedled. With the exception of Graine’s case the longest well authenticated in- stance of fasting on record is that ac- complished by Giovanni Succi, who lived at the Royal Aquarium, London, for forty-five days without food.—New York American.

THE DAY WAR ON BASEBALL GAMBLING 8an Francisco Judge lIssues General Warning From Bench When Four Men Are Arrested. Judge Weller of San Francisco is- sued a general warning from the bench to gamblers who bet on base- ball games when the cases of the four men arrested at Recreation Park re- cently were brought before him. He was forced for lack of evidence to dis* miss the cases of Leland Kroper, Joe Barton, Joe Peyser and Walter, alias “Bpecs,” Smith, who were charged with betting on Sunday’'s game, but gave thg men a severe talking to. “Any time you gentlemen connected with the baseball management bring 8 case before me with proper evi- dence, I assure you that I will go to the limit of dealing with the men who bet on baseball games,” sald Judge ‘Weller. “Here is one game that the whole country is interested in keep- ing clean, and for the sake of sport only. Gambling must be shut out ab- solutely. You men brought before me charged with gambling on the games, have played the game at some time when you were boys and know as well as I do that the sport must be kept clean from gambling of any kind. Gam- bling has ruined other sports, and I am going to do all in my power to see that baseball is kept free from it.” The arresting-officers testified that they saw Kroper and Barton exchange money and saw Peyser and Smith making sigoals with their hands, but they did not hear the conversation that took place between the men. The Ban Francisco baseball manage- ment is determined to stamp out the evil and plain clothes men will con- tinue to be placed at the park to see that no gambling takes places on the games.

This is especially true of the pitchers. Many, many pitchers tell you that the old arm’ia as strong as ever. My arm feels geod too, this spring, but it i not as strong as ever. “If it was I wouldn't be in the South. ern League, and if the arms of those other pitchers were as strong as ever, they also would not be in the minor leagues.” Coffroth Gets a New Stand.

In some public schools where large halls are avallable an effort has been made to realize the meaning of a mil- lion. They secure 100 large sheets of paper, each about four feet six inches square, ruled in quarter inch squares. In each alternate square a round black wafer or circle is placed, a little overlapping the square, thus leaving an equal amount of white space be- tween the black spots. At each tenth spot a double width is left so as to separate each' hundred spots, ten by ten. TEach sheet then holds 10,000 spots, each horizontal or vertical row containing 1,000. One hundred such sheets . contain, of course, a million spots, and they would occupy a space 450 feet long in one row or ninety feet long In five rows, so that they would entirely cover the walls of a room about thirty feet square and twoenty-five feet high from floor to celling, allowing space for doors, but not for windows.

Queered Himself. “Absentmindedness is a dreadful drawback to success,” sald a promi- nent officlal. “I know a very absent- minded lawyer. The other day it was raining and blowing, and he engaged a taxicab. On the way to court he overtook the judge plodding along on foot through rain and wind and mud, | as! and he halted the taxicab and invited his honor to ride with him. The judge accepted the invitation, the taxicab duly halted at the courthouse, and the absentminded lawyer hopped out and ran upstairs to get ready the papers for a petition he was to present. But when the court opened and the peti- tlon was presented the judge, who had been so courteous in the cab a few minutes before, now repulsed the law- yer coldly and contemptuously. As the poor fellow stood stupefied a crier whispered to him: “‘Do you know what you did? You ran in and left his honor to pay for the taxicab.’ "—Washington Star. An lronclad of 1585, It is generally supposed that the first use of armor for battleships was during the Crimean war. As a matter of fact, the Dutch claim to have been the pioneers of ironclad building more than 800 years ago. During the fa- mous siege of Antwerp by the Span- iards in 1585, says J. R. Hale in “Fa- mous Sea Fights,” the people of the city built a huge flat bottomed war- ship, armed with heavy iron plates, which they named the Finis Bell, a boastful expression of the hope that she would end the war. An old print of the Finis Belll shows a four masted ship with a high poop. But the ves- sel steered badly and eventually ran aground under the Spanish batteries and fell Into the hands of thelr com- mander, the Duke of Parma. He kept the Finis Belll as a curiosity till the end of the siege. New Kind of Flute. A large musician with a larger vio- loncello hailed a hansom. “Drive me to King’s Hall!” he sald. When, after a hard tussle, he had ‘wedged himself and his instrument into the limited area of the cab, the driver cracked his whip and drove off. - They reached the hall. The musician alighted and took out a shilling. “What's this?” demanded the driver. “Your legal fare,” saild the musician. “Yes, 1 know it's my legal fare for carrying you,” retorted the jehu, with a direful glance at the bulky instru- ment, “but what about that there flute?—I 7Lake M¢Donald, conceded to be one of the riost beautiful water spots in the world, is located in Glacier National Park in northwestern Montana. This district was created into & National Playground by the- Sixty-first U. 8. Congress, and since that time has been given much pub- licity through the columns of the lead- ing newspapers and magazines as well as the Great Northern Ry. in its “See Amer- ica First” movement. Lake McDonald lies in the southwest- ern part of the Park, is 12 miles long Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park and 13, miles wide and is surrounded on all sides by high pine covered mountains. The principal accommodations in the Park at the present time are those located on this lake, and arrangements can be made at these hotels for one day, two day or longer trips through this wonder- ful region with competent guides at rea- sonable rates. This new Park sooner or later will surely come into its own as a big draw- ing card for tow Two Headed Symbols. Both Russia and Germany display two headed eagles on:their standards. Yet this symbol is considered by some heralds to be merely the result of the heraldic practice of “dimidiation.” This was simply a child’s way of im- paling two coats of arms on the same shield by the primitive method of cut- ting each in balf and taking the dex- ter half of one and the sinister half of the other and placing them back to back, as it were. Strange two headed beasts naturally resulted—as, for in- stance, when a lion and an eagle were halved and jolned' together.
