Noah sleeps the last sleep, It seems, on the summit of Jebel Judl, near by and overlooking the plains of Mesopotamia. Noah was a most plcturesque Individual. Despite the rumblings of threats against the present system of intercollegiate ath- letios. in the state of Towa, the spring season opens with fine prospects. Practi- _cally every (nstitution of higher learning will have frack and base ball teams and the quality of the athletic performances ‘will show a marked improvement over pre- 'Vious seasons according to the early indi- eations. | : ; Good track teams will represent the Uni- |versity of Iowa, Grinnell college, Drake |unlyersity and Ames, and these same four #chools will have stronger base ball nines /than in previous seasons. The schedules ‘of both track and base ball teams are more complete than ever before and the \number of ‘contests will undoubtedly i”"-. all records when the college aggre- gations disband ‘next' June after the last .game and the last field meet are held be- ‘fore ‘The ultimatum that intercolleglate ath- letics must be reformed at the University |of Towa, the lowa State Agricultural school |8t Ames and the State Teachers' college |at Cedar Falls will not stop the enthusi- (a§m this spring &t least. The athletes !locally are determined to make the most ot the coming spring season to make a [record that will be recelved by the educa- tors with favor. | Criticlsm has come from the state board that the rivalry between Ames and Iowa {has been 80 keen that much harm has been !done. That this strenuous activity against one another must stop s Its command. Bftorts will be made by codohes, players and students in both institutions to em- phasize the “Era of Good Feeling'' which has existed the last year, 50 that the [boll'fl may be impressed by the feellng oW existing between the two leading state institutions so fur as athletics are con- cerned. Track Coach Jerry Delaney will organize bla freshmen track squad next week, as the gume tonlght against Ottumwa ends the season for the. first year basket ball men. “I do not belleve in working the freshmen In both basket ball and track &t the same time indoors,” sald Coach Delaney yesterday, “It is too much to ask |; Of the youngsters. However, this coming Weel will seo the formation of a good sised freshmen track squad. I hope that we will get a chance to meet Minnesota WIth both freshmen and varsity track squads,” The base ball practios started in earnest this last week, with Commandant M. C. Mumma In charge. The cage was let down @nd the men given thelr first chance to Swing on the ball. Biforts will be made this coming week to increase the siwe of the squad. He was an exceedingly wise man In his generation, for he had sense enough to get in out of the rain when, according to the record, getting in out of the rain was all but universally considered extremely fool- Ish and fll-advised. Nevertheless, had he not shown his surpassing wisdom by act- ing faithtully upon it, he wauld not have ©ome to be known subsequently as the reai, genuinely authenticated world's champion oldest !nhabitant and the final appeal in all matters of anclent history. Noah—who surely must have been In the original edition Honorable Noeh or Colonel Noah—probably may safely -be set down as Exhibit A among prohibitionists. If con- gress had been invented during or before Noah's day, doubtless he would have Loen & member, and a shrewd and result-getting member at that. He knew how 10 play both ends against the middle most succoss- fully—a sure sign of the intuitive and prac- tical politiclan. He bullt and personally conducted the greatest water wagon expe- dition of all time, and yet it was known to Noah's closer friends and assoclates that he did not hesitate to laugh it to scorn on occasions and refuse to ride upon it quito fqunn-lll Astute old Noah! Amid a world wetness, he alone was able to find a place to get off! Of course, some of the spicler tales told concerning Noah may have had no real foundation In fact. They may have teen glven currency by the opposition, after- ward duly and truly swamped at the psych- ological moment, tighteously enough, it is to be hoped. It mist be remembered that Noah held an undisputed monopoly of the earth’s transportation business for a time, and probably was, In consequence, a par- ticularly engaging target for the muck- rakers and malcontents of the day. Anyway, whatever may have been Noah's shortcomings or virtues, and walving the Dossible preponderunce either way for the moment, his was a compelling persomality, and Inspires solemn contemplation and speculation even at this late hour.

DANE LOSES MATCH TO POLE 0| Sprained Ankle Puts Him Out After Hour and Eleven Minutes. BOTH FALL FROM MAT TO FLOOR Zbyszko Jumps Up d Down on Westergaard Until Pulled Off Dentes Intent of Unfaire neas, Jess Westergaard of Des Moines ‘:fl many additional admirers in Omaha by the magnificent, showing he made against Zbyszko, the giant Pole, In a match which was given to the Pole after an hour and 11 minutes, wrestling, because Westergaard was ‘unable to continue on account of a sprained ankle. 2 Westergaard had the better of the argu- ment all the way through to the finish and the Pole was not able to hook a hold on Westergaard which the Dane could not #hake loose. He put up the greatest ex- ibition of wrestling he- has .ever shown in Omaha and the much-vaunted strength: of Zbysako was of no avall against the superior knowledge of the wrestling game showfi by Westergaard. The Pole had the better of Westergaard in weight by, about % pounds. 3 The finieh came, after an exciting mixup, in which Westergaard was crowded through the north ropes to the floor with the Pole right after him and on top. When they hit the floor the Pole kept jumping up and down on Westergaard until he was pulled off by the police. The referee did mot think this Bufficlent ground for giving the match to Westergaard on a foul, ‘although these unfair tactics while out of the ring put Westergaard out of the rupning. Passing ‘up the Pole's rough work, which the referee says he did not see, but which those on that side of the arena say was very plain, there was noth- to do except to give the match to Ankle Weak from Sprain. Westergaard has & weak ankle from a sprain of a similar nature, received i a match two weeks ago at Minneapolls, but he was able to keep his feet away from thi reach of the Pole until they went off the Pplatform. Westergaard at times tossed the Pole’ around as ecasily as the Pole did the big Frenchman, De Rouen, In thelr match a couple of weeks ago. The Dane was be- hind ‘before they had wrestled a minute. He made a dive for the Pole's leg, and after the scrimmage was behind. He was not able to secure an effective offensive hold, although several times he had the Pole's shoulders started toward the mat. Every advantage the Pole was able to gain on Westergaard was soon turned fo the advantage of the Dane by some feat of skill or strength. The Pole was foreed to shake his head several times after fall- ure to make & half nelson work. Several times he had what seemed like a strong | hold on Westergaard, but he was not able to keep it long. ‘Westergaard was on the offensive nearly the entire time and seemed to be doing most of the hard work, and In spite of that he seemed In “better condition béfore the accldent than the Pole. Both were dripping with perspiration and the mat was stalned from their colored tights. Pole Tried to Be Fair. The Pole evidently intended to be fair and there were nome of the rough tacties which are always evident when the French- man Wwresties. Zbyssko did not make a bad move, unless it was when Westergaard was hurt, and that was visible to few. When the doctor was called the Pole seemed quite anxious to learn of Wester- gaard's condition and showed that he could speak a little English. He sald: “1 did not know We were not on the mat. I eould not help it. He pulled me off the mat." Bill Hokuf won In stralght falls from Policeman McCabe, the first fall in 10:37, with & half nelson, and the second-in 12:17, with & half nelson and bar hold. This was quite a lively mateh, with Hokuf the aggressor all the way through. An exhibition was glven by Jack Toliver and Anton Ruby, the tumbler, Tollyer at- tempted to throw Ruby twice In an hour, but was not able to accomplish the Peat. They gave a good exhibition of getting away from holds, with Toliver always on wital Jonah was on his memorable voyage.

The season has opened with greater promise than ever. Automoblle men are confideht of a great season’s business. The show was a grand success, Colonel Deright sald. Thousands ot prospective buyers saw the 1910 models. They listened to dealers explain every di tall of their cars' mechanism and they went home with catalogues galore. The glorious weath of the last week has whetted their appetites for machines, and the season may be said to be fairly on. Last week several dealers visited Sloux City's Automobile show. Roy Coffeen and Marshall Collins ‘of the Racine-Sattley company made a splendid show. The Standard company also made o display there. H. E. Sidles, 'sales manager of the Buiok agency in this section, came yp trom, Kan- sas City yesterday with R. H., Collins, Kansas City, local manager. They spent the day here with Manager Huff and left for Lincoln last night. Clad in a fur overcoat, with a cap to match, a stock: ralser from down the state strolled into.the Cadillac' booth at the recent Chidugo Auto show and asked, to see Mr, Cadillac. ‘When told that the gentle- man in question was not to be seen he in- sisted upon meeting him, saying that he had been running one of the tirst Cadillacs made for the last elght years and wanted to shake hands and pay his respect to the man that Invented it. It was finally ex- plained to Kim ‘that Mr. Cadlllac had nothing to do ‘with making the car that bore his name, but that the gentleman was a French explorer who founded the city of Detroit many ears ago and that the car was made in his honor. The visitor was finally convinced and went away satis- fled after shaking hands ‘with Mr. Henry M. Leland, the father of the Cadillac car Dick Stewart sald: “The other day a vis- itor to the Rambler factory wanted to know how Rambler quality had been at- tained. General Manager Jeffrey pointed to & man at work finlshing Rambler en- gine bearings and sald: ‘Before that man could qualify for that job he had to prove that he had had at least seven years of expérience in that special line of work, The difference between the work of that man With perhaps twenty years' of ex- perience, and the man with perhaps two years' experience is the difference — be- tween quality and inferfority.’ " C. H, Herring, for the Atlantic Auto company, sald: “Paul Hardin of Chester, S. C, 1s out with a challenge that has set the auto gossips busy In at least four of his neighboring counties. A few days ago W. C. Thomson agreed to buy & two- cylinder 1910 Reo on condifion that jt would run under its own power from Chester to Bullock’s Creek, 8. C., by Har- din. Thomson lives twenty miles from the nearest county seat where the roads are of a heavy red clay, which at this time of the yeer are impassable for a wagon in many places. The long trip was success- tully made by Hardin though the road was lost twice. Thomson is now the proud owner of the car and Hardin offers to bet any local owner of & car that cost twice the price of the 1910 two-cylinder Reo, one car against the other, that he cannot follow the Reo in & cross country rum to Bullock's Creek or over any other similar roads within fifty miles of Chester.

This is prob- ably due to the fact that the home of this type of car s in the middle west and in that section has been‘more fully exploited than in any other locality. Hav- ing been given greater attention by ths purchasing public because the sales force of each consern has been more persistent in the middle west than in any other section, the sales necessarily have been Breater. The far west is becoming edu- cated to the use of electric cars and in another season every state west of Illimols will bave & large number of cars. The east has been slow In taking up the elec- trio cars, the reason for which is problema- tical.” Speaking of the commerce of the Frank- lin factory, Guy Smith sald: “A tumn- table for convenlence in handling Frank- “The middle west | lin motor cars has been Installed in the repair shop at the factory In Syracuse. Just as a locomotive can run up to the round house and then on a turntable sent into its quarters on the proper track a motor car can now be run into the repalr shop and turned to be sent in any direction in the place. The turntable has a dlameter of fifteen feet, is of steel con- struction and moves on ball bearings.” The A. C. A. touring book for 1910 will be in the hands of all: A. C. A. 'members before May 1. It contains 500 routes and fifty large maps in colors. The main tour- ing lines are divided Into a half dozen di- visions as follows: No. 1 Hudson Valley (east) and New England; No. 2, Hudson Valley west, (New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania); No. 8, The Middle West; No. 4, The West; No. 5, The South; No. 6, Canada and the West Indles. ‘“There is no question in my mind,” says W. H. Wigman ot Fredrickson's, ‘but what people like to see how they look to other people when they are in an automobile. ‘When we are demonstrating cars, we notice that people are contlnually looking in shep windows to get a glimpse of themselyes. | Tt is human nature, just as it Is human nature for a man or a woman to look into shop windows when they are wearing a mew suit of clothes or a mew gown. There is a feellng of personal satisfaction that goes with the knowledge that you look neither too large nor too small compared with the car in which you are riding, which goes a long ways toward making the pur- chaser satisfied with his car.” 'PURE AR AS A CURE-ALL" Physicians Recount Benefits of Out- door Treatment, in Allments, Recent experiments in open air treat- ment of disease were declared to have shown astonishing results by Dr. Willlam P. Northrup In a lecture delivered at the Academy of Medicine in New’ York City. Dr. Northrup's address was the first of a serles of twelve on prevengion of disease, which are to be held at the academy under the Joint auspices of the public health edu- cation committee of'the Medical soclety of the county of New York and the hyglene commiftee of the New York Federation of Women's Clubs. Dr. Northrup declared that the generally accepted theory that foul air consisted of a deficlency of oxygen and a large surplus of carbonle acid caused by breathing was erroneous. \ “The famillar symptoms of headache, diz- slness, nausea, and faintness in crowded inclosures are caused by heat storing in the body,” he sald. “This heat storing Is due to increased molsture in the atmo- Sphere and its stagnation. In the Black Hole of Calcutta the vietims died from the Increased heat molsture and heat stag- nation, not. lack: of. oxygen." It is steam heated persons who catch cold, Dr. Northrup said, and he declared that If temperature of rooms was kept be- neath 70 degrees thero would be a great decrease in pneumonla and many other {lls. He sald thet outdoor treatment was now regarded as an almost certaln cure for pneumonia, measies and scarlet fever. “The poor should wear clothing in pref- erence of crowding In overheated rooms,” he continued. ““The body heat should be governed by coverings and not by over- heated air. “There fs no reason why children should not be as healthy in New York as in the country. Anaemic children are not made 50 by living In the city as opposed to the country, but because in cold weather they are huddled in overheated rooms.” Dr. R. G. Freeman, visiting physiclan of the New York Foundling hospital, told of having checked an epldemlc of measles and scarlet fever ip that nstitution by taking all of the' patients to the roof, wWhere they remained until cured, “When the ‘epldemic broke out” sald Dr, Freeman, “‘we expected to lose many bables, but, thanks to the open air treat- ment, there was not one death.” After the addresses Dr. Freeman do- clared, In answer to a question, that no baby was too young for the open air treatment, provided 1t was warmly | clothed. He also sald that cold baths were better for young bables than warm baths, If the baby glowed when taken from the water, “Just aip them In and take them right out" he sald. “You need not be afraid oven If the water s very cold.”—New York Herald.

We broke to pleces Howe's sewing machine as an invention calculated to ruin the working classes; and we did the same thing to the harvester and the binder, We scorned the typewriter as a plaything. We gathered together in mass meotings of indignation at the first proposal to In- stall elcotrie trolley lines, and when Dr. Bell told us he had invented an instyu- ment by means of whith we might talk to one another across the town we responded with accustomed ridicule, and only the reckless among us contributed to its being. ~Atlantic Monthly, 9REATEST DF_QAME STATES Preceminence of Maine as Natural Game Preserve in the Unio the The report of the fish and game com. missioner of Maine covering 190, 24th year since Pemaquid was founded, reminds us that the little state—little by comparison with many others, being thirty-sixth in area—is one of the great- est natural game preserves in the union, With difficulty the Investigator will find any other state in which 80 many deer are killed In the open season In one year. This is perhaps a very conservative way of putting the speculation. In Okla- homa, admitted as a state in 1907, deer are found here and there In rough coun- try, but their number is small and rap- idly diminishing. In some western states there is no need of an open season, for there are no deer left. The south has ceased to be a great hunting ground. In the Pacifio slope states the deer and bear familler are well rrpl‘“nlid still, but no longer can gamefbe called abun- dant. In Matne, with ita land area of 2,8% square miles and water surface of 2,800 square miles, wild lite possesses the forest depths and invades the cultivated valleys, and in spite of stringent laws and a short open season game is really plentiful. A census of beasts of the chase, if not of birds, might indicate a &ain rather than a loss since the colonial period. Bangor is the ohief clearing house for game in the state. During the late open son 3,266 deer, 176 moose, and forty-four bears were shipped through that city. The Somerset rallrosd reported 1,86 deer, severf moose, And nine bears, and the Bandy River raflroad 519 deer, six bears, and two moose. From 150 Mcensed hunters and trappers the following returns of fur-bear- ing antmale were received. Righty-five bears, 512 foxes, 4 raccoons, 68 mink, 127 sable, 97 otter, 321 fisher, blackeat, of 39 beaver, 2,06 muskrats, 348 107 skunks, and 23 wildcats. We should like to know whether any other state could make such a diversified show- ing, and the returns are by no means com- Plete, for 366 licenses were lssued to hunters and trappers of fur-bearing animals. The number of guides registered was 2,057 resi- dents and 28 nonresidents. Of these 1,726 reported that they had conducted parties comprising 3,007 hunters. ‘Her¢ again the returns are not all in. In spite of the army that annually pursues the wild animals of Malne and the recurrent slaughter, their number never seems’ to grow less. And It will be 80 as long as the greater part of Maine is a wilderness. Ten years ago It was estimated that there were 23,700 square miles of forests or woodland in the state, or T per cent of the whole. In 1806 the standing feet of spruce alone were cal- culated as 21,239,000,000. There seems to be no pressing forestry problem in the Dirigo state.—~New York Sun. WHoO WANTS A BLACK ROSE? A Triumph of Botanieal Chemistry that is Useful Only as = Curiosity. The inventor ot a process for growing black roses naturally takes pride in his achlevement. The black rose is new in florioulture. Naturé, within the knowledge of man, has produced o rose of that color, and the black rose, If it 1s & shapely, full- grown flower, will be cordially received. If it have the perfume of the garden rose ita value will be greater. Some of the most esteemed roses of the florists’ shops are almost oderless. The inventor of the black rose ls to be congratulated. Black |dia- monds and brown ones are esteemed far above their intrinsic value, Mr. Burbanks' horticultural hybrids are highly prized. It will not do in this scientific era to con- demn the gardener or agriculturist for using his wit and art to produce freaks in deflance of nature. The freakish tenden- cles of nature are now too well understood. The cunning of man cannot outdo them. Only nature has not yet produced a black rose. and the first of its kind will surely command & high price in the market for ourlosities. The utility of a black rose is question- able. It will never matisfy the eye like the red, yellow or white rose; a new poetry of roses must ba made to fit it; no lover will come to use it as & symbol of his passion. At its best it will seem a thing of mys- tery. A bunch of black roses carelessly laid on thé rail of a parterre box at the opera will not necessarily charm the vision of the unfortunate lookers-on in the stalls. The near-sighted ones may fanoy that the principal ocoupant of the box is displaying her overshoes. A black rose in a lovely woman's hair will resemble a rosette of |/ silk or velvet. As & gift the black rose, after its first novelty has worn away, will fit only funeral occasions. Even then s oddity and the extravagance its pres- ence implies will serve to make it seem un- suftable. The advent of the black rose will be an event, a triumph of botanical chemidtry, a subject for learned discussion and some more or less tedious frivol. But, after that —~What?

DIVORCE, REMARRIAGE MIXUE Specimen of the Family Confession . Wrought by Chicngo Di- vorce Mills, He Jarvis Hunt, a Chicago divorcee, -nf Howard G. Cole, also of Chicago and divorced, were married in Florida a few days ago. Two interesting developments followed in the Chicago end of the discon- nected families. Mrs. Cole is now seeking from her former husband & substantial financlal settiement for their children and Mrs. Hunt shortly before her marriage to Cole is sald to have relinquished all right to the custody of her son and daughter. After the Cole divorce case was tried be- fore Judge Dupuy in the supreme court a decree Was entered granting Mrs. Cole all- mony amounting to $600 a month. This sum. is now regarded as insufficlent by Mrs. Cole, In view of the fact that the four children are in her care, and she ls de- manding that Cole place.a lump sum in her control for the benefit of all the children. Mrs. Cole declined to discuss the subject, but it is understood that she s requesting her former husband to set aside $100,000 for the financlal assistance of his children, Mrs. Cole directed her logal advisers sev- eral days ago to open negotiations with Cole along this line. She has repeatedly asserted that she has no desire even to threaten him with Jegal proceedings be- cause of his action In remarrylng within the prohibited statutory period, but it Is be- lleved by her friends that the possibility of this weapon belng used will have a persuading Influence on Cole 80 far as & settlement on behaif of his children is con- cerned. Attorneys connected with the Cole divorce suit asserted some time ago that if any action was taken against Cole it would remain for his former wife to begin proceedings. The arrangements whereby Mrs, Hunt- Cole relinquished control of her children, it was learned, were completed shortly before she left for Jacksonville, Fla., to wed Cole. The children, Jarvis, jr., ahd Loulse, were given Into the custody of their mother last October, when Judge Blusser of Dupage county granted Mrs. Hunt divorce, Bodl children have been for some time with thely paternal grandmother, in Vermont. It ls sald that the grandmother will move to Wheaton, Iil., within a tew months, wherg she will continue to supervise the rearing of the children, “Mrs. Cole s willing to let her jausband pursue his own paths in life hereafter, but 8he belleves that he ought to set cside a substantial sum for the benefit of his chil- dren,” said one of her friends. “Two of the children by his first marriage and two who were born after his second matri- monlal venture are in the custody of Mrs. Cole. Now that he has married & third time she belleves that he ought to set aside & part of his ample fortune to take care of his offspring. A beginning has been made in the way of negotiations, but they are far from complete. It remains for Cole to do the right thing by his former family, Allmony 6f $000 a month is all right for Mrs. Cole, but the future of the children must be considered.'—Chicago Record- Herald. * P — | Persistent Advertising Is the road to Big Returns rr—— ' 4 Iuvooations, Talent, let me rely on thee—for I have ene talent apd no napkin to hide it under.
