PULLAR & NIVEN GERMAN BEATS SWEDE | FOR POOL HONORS Hermie Schmarr Walks Away With Pool Honors in His Own Association —Mr. Egan Reads a “Pome.” Hermann Schmarr is champlon pool player of the Schmarr the game that gave Hermie the title was decided last evening, and proved to be the most exciting of the tourna- ment Entering into the last night's match found Schmarr leading the ‘“league” by a single game over Aaron Larson who was his opponent With plenty of “pep” Larson went after the “boss” and by a clever exhibition of cue manipulation succeeded in lower- ing the colors of Schmarr, score 100 to 91. It was decided to break the tie then and there, so a fifty point match was played, and amid the greatest of enthusiasm, Schmarr succeeded in “coming through”, winning 50 to 31, thereby gaining the handsome trophy for first place Larson secured a stein for second honors. The remain- ing players in the turnament fin- ished in the following order Third, Danny Fitzpatrick ;fourth, Otto Schmarr ;fifth, W. Campbell; sixth, C. Larson. To show his good sportsmanship and to continue the interest in pool play- ing, Mr. Schmarr turned the first prize back to the association, with the provision that four players who went | without honors play off for it. The games will commence this evening and defeat will mean dropping out of the play until the match simmers down to the last two players. After the series had ended last night and congratulations were being poured on the victor, a retiring sort of a gen- tleman strutted up to the mahogany rail (he didn’t order anything) and reaching into his inside pocket he brought forth a gem, and while silence reigned he let this fly: The Great Pool Match. Here's to Herman Schmarr, the cock | of the walk, Who played pool, while his opponents talk, Of the breaks, the misses, the kisses and balk, The caroms, they made while the chalk. Aaron Larson is Herman's brother-in- law, And when he plays, you can hear him jaw, About the shots, he easily missed, Which he would have made, if the balls had kissed using Otto Schmarr is Herman's brother, And they dearly love one another, If he would only unbutton his vest, I think he would come out second best “Yarlie” play, And probably will some fine day, But he will have to change his name, Larson thought he could Before he is sure, he will win a game. | Walter Campbell is a master dancing art, But as a pool plaver, he takes no part, In playing the game he seems to for- get, And thinks he is dancing a minuet. in the Danny Fitzpatrick is a silent player, How the game goes he does not care, 1f he would talk, just for a while, He would beat the others, by a mile.

Rockefeller, Jr., addressed today's cession of the International Conven- Young Men’s Christian Associations of North America, urg- ing a campaign to be called ‘“The Every-Christian-Man at Work Move- ment.” Many Time Markers. Multitudes of men whose names appear on the church rales as Christians are merely marking time, said Mr. Rockefeller, like soldiers parading the streets in dress uniform instead of rendering active service I'’ke the men in soiled and disheveled kh; “Christian manhood, like muscular or mental power, is only to be maintained by its use,” he said. “I call upon the ministers of this land to rouse to action that vast borde of Christian men enrolled in | the churches but seldom seen in the pews, who are only waiting for some which requires manly quali- ties in order to be again brought into active relation with the churches. The day for the preaching of a gospel looking toward the pre- paration of the individual for a pas- | «age to the skies on flowerly beds of ease has passed, it never return. and may Bring Classes Together. “The inactive army af Christian will be drawn to service the more quickly when they have come tc recognize the brotherhood of man as a necessary corollary ta the fatherhood of God. An interesting and unique argument recently ad- vanced for compulsory military ser- vice in this country is that the sons of the well-to-do families of our communities might thereby be thrown into close contact with the sons of the working people, so that the great gap which toa often exists might be bridged and as a result of daily association in common tasks these two classes of men brought to see that the difference between them is superficial rather than inherent. “As wé face the great industrial rroblems which are arising daily, it seems clear that the only hope of their permanent and satisfactory solution lies in the widespread ac- ceptance of the doctrine of the brotherhood of man. When men of widely separated stations are thrown together, come ta know each other, to admire the strong and manly qualities which they see in each other when they are working side by side tor the advancement of a common in- terest, then and then only does per- sonal distrust, hatred and misunder- standing give way to a spirit of fair- play, justice and a desire for the common good.” Tribute To Y. M. C. A, Mr. Rockefeller paid tribute to the success of the Young Men’s Christ- ian associations in having “done more throughout the civilized word than any other single force in helping to tring about cooperation between Christian men of different denom- inations.”” It was ta be profoundly regretted, he continued, “that Christ- ian men should spend a moment of time, an ounce of strength, a cent cf money in contending among them- selves in regard to their individual irterpretations of scriptual meanings, instead of uniting tagether under the common standard of the cross to op- pose with a solid front the hosts of darkness.” In launching the proposed cam- raign ta put every Christian man at work, Mr. Rockefeller proposed the appointment of a special secretary of the international committee of the Y. M. C. A. to have charge of the undertaking, and he outlined some of the general requirements of the or- sanization. “It is hard,” he said, “to cenceive of any single effort which would go further toward revitaliz- ing the churches of North America and reviving the interest of man in them.” BLODGETT BR AKS LEG, Yale Eleven Given First Scrimmage of Season.

Whitman Prepares Message for California’s Chief Executive New York, May 16.—The transcon- tinental air race for the Ralph Pulitzer trophy and added cash prizes, an- nounced yesterday by the Aero Club of America, will start from New York Sept. 2—the Saturday before Labor day. Plans for this National Aerial Derby, which may be varied from year to year as the Aero club decrees, made stronger appeal to official and scien- tific interest and to popular imagina- tion than any other aviation event since the infant days of flying. As a measure toward national pre- paredness the long distance flying classic was welcomed by all those who have wished that something might spur America to regain its place in the air. As'an event of sportsman- ship and a test of aerial engineering development, the transcontinental race came as the long awaited call Responses Surpass Expectatior The Aero club made sure of a rea- sonable interest in the proposed con- test before accepting Mr. Puli offer of a trophy that shall be the honor prize of an annual National Aerial Derby, but the nesponses to the first day's announcement surpassed all expectations of the club's most en- thusiastic members. Gov. Whitman, quick to appreciate the importance of the establishment of a national aerial highway, sent from Albany a letter of greeting to the governor of California to be de- livered by transcontinental aerial mail. Duplicates of his official note will be obtained by the Aero club for each flyer so that whoever wins the race may have the honor of delivering the governor's message. Gov. Whit- man’s letter follows: Hon. Hiram W. Johnson, Sacramento, Cal. My Dear Gov. Johnson: I greet you again—this time by even a more re- markable route than the threads of wire which have carried messages of good fellowship between New York and California so often this winter. A new era is marked by the carry- ing of this message by human flight across the American continent. May another link thus be established be- tween the people of Atlantic and Paciflc coasts. With kindest regards, believe me, Most cordially yours, CHAS. S. WHITMAR How’s This? We offer One Hundred Dollars Re- ward for any case of Catarrh that can- not be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.
