Passenger Pigeons Gone
Tho tiuestlon has been nsked, "Do you
think there Is n passenger pigeon In ex
istence?" to which the answer "no" Is
given. The countless millions of theso
birds, which onco shut out tho sunrhluc
by their numbers In flight In various
rectlons, hac been so wantonly dcstioyed
that not a slnglo bird is allvo today.
If he Is he has not been discovered,
though reports from time to tlmo have
been received ftom various sections that
n bird resembling the passenger has been
seen, nieso reports nave been run to
earth by many prominent ornithologists,
and so far not a bird has been discov
ered. There is a standing offer of great
valuo to the person who finds a nesting
pair nnd captures them. Up until a com
paratively short tlmo ago a passenger
pigeon was onef of the curiosities In tho
Cincinnati Zoo.

A pot In the average mind wears flow
ing tie an" rags behind an' eats one meal
a week. WV think of him as somo cpieer
brand of nut whose soft an" Illy hand Is
'femlnate an' weak. It's hard to even
think at all of any poet playln' ball. Ye
gods, that couldn't be! An" If thero was
one, would you dare to siek him In the

George Morlarity Is the gent the poet
In the Jennings tent. An' he's a good
one, too. An' yet to see George work
at third a feller wouldn't b'llevo a Woid
of what I say Is true. This handsome,
six-foot athlete writes a lot o' rymln' Junk
at nights an' when tho ol' snow flies. Ho
writes as if he had long hair, but when
the springtime comes ne"s there to beat
out bush league guys.
George ain't a Cobb at battln", but he
plays four hundred with his nut the
whole nine Innings through. An' ficldln',
he has pep to burn. Around thnt final
homestretch turn there's few stunts lie
can't do. Ho broko In with the Cube -naught

up before he'd big leagued very long, it

Pennsylvania'-) football squad starts
from scratch this year in the big Inter
collegiate gridiron race. While all of
their rivals have had a hnndlcap of from
one to two weeks' start In the matter of
preliminary practice, the Quakers are
the last to get under wav. On the
fields of all the other inembeis of the
"Blrf Six" by which wp mean Harvard
Yale, Princeton, Cornell, Dartmouth nnf
PenniyPMnla conrh" hae bni-n testing
new and old candidates. It was not un
til today that Coach Gorge II. Brooke
and Captain Albert Journeay had a
chance to meet and sb.'j up the athletic
youths who hope to wear the red and
blue.
Some of the big universities have rather
mer, or a too-long extended, preliminary
fallen from grace In tho matter of ob
serving the unwritten rule agnlnst sum
practice. There isn't any Intel colleglat
agreement respecting thli practice, but
by common consent It was discontinued
several years ago by virtually all of the
big universale-! of tho East on the theory
that It was not exactly fair. But grad
ually all tho others have been advancing
the dntc for calling out candidates, and
although not one has begun as early a."
September 1, several have come perilously
near It. The colleges of the M'ddle West
met the Issue by a signed agreement not
to begin preliminary practice more than
two weeks In advance of the opening of
their universities.
This year Pennsylvania li the only
l adhered to the old understanding. Las'
ear, wnen the Quaker coaches shw that
their rivals were calling out their randl
l dates before the middle of September
George Brooke asked for perm'ssion V
. call out his candidates at the end of the
first week In September. But the Penn
sylvania Committee, under the chairman
thlp of T. Tru.Ntun Hare, peremptorily re
fused this request on the ground that It
was not fair The same position way
taken tlilt year although all of Pennsyl
vania's champioii-hiT, rlals have the ad
vantage of an can) stai t
Philadelphians to Vie With
Others in Tests of Skill for
Fame and Glory Lasts
Entire Week.

Not satisfied with casting his bread
upon the waters of tho Federal League,
John M. Ward Is now said to be supply
ing Weeghman's restaurants.
The Giants now have Smith, Erlckson.
Huenko and Bralnerd. They are classed
as recent purchases. That doesn't meun,
however, that McCraw lost his put chase
In the league race.
It was a big drop for the Orioles to
land in Wilmington after having been In
Baltimore so long. In fact, a true knock
out drop.
Joe Jackson Indignantly resents being
called "Shoeles.i Joe," which Is ample
proof that the story Is true.
The) do say that Lnny I.ajole Is going
back. It looks the other way round to
us. Ho has just moved from second to
first.
The Xatlonal Commission has made all
arrangements and has given the details
for the approaching woild's fcerles vith
tho exception of the betting odds. It is
understood that the voting on that aues
ion was not unanimous.
When William Penn made his treaty

Look Ahead
The Old-Type Car is Passing
Ideals have changed on motor cars, and the old
type cars are never coming back. Bear that in mind
in choosing a new car now.
Men wi)I not go back to Fours"
Nor to over-prices
Nor to overweight.
All the over-taxes which HUDSON engineers
have ended will soon disappear for good.
Moderation Now
The HUDSON Six-40 typifies the new ideal in
cars. Modest in size, yet with ample loom for seven.
Light, yet immensely sturdy. Good engineering
and costly materials have eliminated 1.000 needless
pounds.
It is so economical that on all sides you hear
owners talking of the wonderful nrleage they are
obtaining on a minimum of gasoline, oil and tires.
