Following is 1 j an extract from tbe article: "Every morning at 10 we gather in ; | the club house. If the team is on the road, we meet in Connie's room in tho hotel. We are never in session less | than ten minutes or rarely more than i halt' an hour. But in that time the game to be played that afternoon is i J sometimes won.

(De layed in Transmission!.- -The orguniza tion ot' the American commission for the relief of Belgium was completed at the American embassy to-night. Cap tain T. P. Lucey and Millard K. Shaler will leave to-morrow for Brussels, where thev will take a census of those in i need. The Spanish Ambassador at London and the Spanish Miuister to Brussels have been added to the commission and their nationals will assist iu the work. The operations of the committee in the food market have disclosed that, owing to the desire of the British govern ment that the stock of food iu these islands should-not be depleted by ex port and to the restrictions placed upon such exports, it is extremely difficult to find even emergency provisions in Kngland, and the receipt of such sup- I plies from across the Atlantic become! more imperative, it is said, than was | j originally anticipated. I u Charleroi the food supply is ex ; hgusted and tho population is subsist ing on potato soup. A representative ot' tho local relief committee of Liege who reached I#oudou to-day reported that the people ire becoming restive over the non-arrival of supplies. He said it was practically impossible to ob tain any food supplies in Holland and that, unless supplies from America were sent quickly, .conditions in Bel gium would become desperate. The cotnmisisou learns that all food stouffs fron America must conie in neu tral bottoms. The oemmission already has purchased a quarter of a million dollars' worth of fodstufTs in the name of the American Ambassador at London and the American Ambassador at Brussels ahd the distribution will begin among the local branches of the Bel giau relief committee. m FRENCH AMATEUR AVIATOR WAS MORTALLY WOUNDED Paris, Oct. '.'3, 2.10 A. M.—France { has lost on the battle field one of licr; best knowu amateur aviators. Dr. Kmile ! Revmond, president ot' the National Aviation Commission and a member of j the French Senate. Ttie Havas Agency j gives the following account of his! death: '"There had been a very violent combat in the region ot' Verdun follow ing an attack by the French to rescue \ one of their aviators. Senator Kmile | Reymond, who ivn< wounded while 1 reconnoitering anil fell between the lines. The aviator was finally rescued and when brought back to the ambu lance was able to give a full and clear report of his observations. Afterward he was decorated with the insignia of the Legion of Honor by the general in i command in the presence of Minister of Justice Briand. Then he died. "When learned of the death of the aviator President Poincare sent a touching telegram of condolence to his widow, saying the death of Senator Reymond would prove a cruel blow to all his friends, but that his magnificent example of courage was an honor to the French parliament." FRENCH CRUISER DAMAGED IN STRIKING SPANISH SHIF New York. Oct. 23.—Officers of the Spanish steamer Telesfora, which ar rived here to-day from Buenos Aires j reported that the' steamer was in colli i sion with the French cruiser Descartes j in the harbor of Castries, St. Lucia, I on October o. The cruiser was badly damaged, according to the Telesfora's I officers, and had to be taken to Mar ] tinique for repairs. The collision occurred as the Teles fora was entering the harbor, her offic ers said. They did not see the Des cartes till the cruiser was a short dis tance dead ahead. Immediately, the steamers engines were reversed and she l let drop her anchor. Her momentum, however, was too great and sJic crash ed at high speed full into the warship. A boat was lowered from the cruiser and two of her officers boarded the ; steamer. They were very angry; the Telesfora's captain feared they would beat him. After a long and bitter wrangle the officers went away and the Telesfora was made to give a bond to make good j the cruiser's repairs before the steam er was permitted to continue on her | trip to Boston and New York. Injuries to the steamer were found j to be insignificant, her officers said, but ; the cruiser was badly hurt and was | leaking. She was taken to Martini ! que. The Telesfora is of approximately 2,70 ft tons. SIBILANTS AND SONG A Combination That Does Not Produce Satisfactory Results , "Writing verses for the printed page and writing "words' to be set to music and sung,'' remarked a gentleman who j has won laurels in both departments of industry, ""are two very different matters. You can take liberties in the first case which you cannot in the case of "lyrics,' as with these you have to consider the 'singableness' of the words used. "To avoid sibilants like a pestilence i and to use open vowels such as A and ' O wherever possible are the two gold len rules. English has been called an ; unsingable language, and certainly Italian and French are more liquid and easier to vocalize in. Open vow els are very important. Compare, for instance, the word 'thee,' which is breathed out between the teeth, with its plural 'you,' which enables the singer to open the mouth widely. The relative singableness is apparent at once. "An eicessive use of sibilants pro duces a ludicrous hissing sound. (Read the last sentence aloud, and note the effect.) Nevertheless a well known dramatist was once careless enough to give an actor a speech in which he described 'Dick sitting still as a stone and steering the horse splendidly.' " London Answers. A Chicago man left home because his wife play"ed irritating records on the phonograph. But perhaps his own record was none too good. When moved to tell your troubles to the world remember how you felt the last time you had to do the listening.

FEATS WITH THE CAMERA Difficult to Snap Fast Moving Objects at a Given Point (•n!y an expert, nnd he only after much practice, can lake a photograph j 1 of a rapidly moving object at a pre- j determined point lor example, an ex i press u.iin with the cowcatcher just j at a white chalk mark on a tie or a baseball at the instant the bat strikes it. The reason for this is two-fold: hirst. there is a certain appreciable time between the mental decision to do a i thing and the actual doing of it; sec- j ond. it takes a certain appreciable time 1 for the impulse given by pressing the button or squeezing the bulb of n j camera to travel to the shutter and open it. The latter may in a very tine ' camera be only one-tiftieth of a sec- i ond, but even the fiftieth of a second j in a train going 100 feet a second I would mean a difference of two feet. I . 11. Claudy in an article in the | "Camera" says that not more than once I in tour attempts will even an expert 1 catch the precise instant he is seeking, j The average man snaps his camera at i the moment the ball is striking the club or racquet, and by the time his 1 shutter lias worked the ball has gone. ' A tennis ball traverses nearly a mile a ] minute when struck hard. That is ninety-six feet a second, so in a lag of one-tenth of a second between the pressing of the button and the opening of the shutter the ball will move nearly ten feet, and ordinary cameras work no faster than this. So one need not won der if the expert fails. Origin of the Word "Mustard" Our English word "mustard - ' is! traceable to the French "moiißtarde," I the origin of which is curiously given, j In 1352 Philip the Bold, duke of Bur-j gundy, granted to the town of Dijon frhe privilege of bearing his armorial ensigns, with the motto '"Moult me tarde" ("I wish ardently"), in return for a handsome contingent of a thou sand men furnished to him at its ex pense. I'lea-sed with the royal con- i descension, the authorities ordered the j device to be affixed over the principal I gates of the city. Time or accident at | length obliterated the middle word, and . the two remaining, moult tarde, were j printed on the labels which the mer chants of Dijon pasted on pots in which I they sent this commodity all over the I world. j When Seals Were Food The gray seal used to serve Cornish men as an article of diet. Stephen Hawker tells how he and a brother clergyman, having asked a landlady at Boscastle what she could give them for dinner, were told "Meat and taties." They tried to get her to particularize the meat, but "Meat, nice, wholesome meat, and taties." was the full extent of her information. When the meat was served it tasted like veal, but was unaccompanied by any vestige of bone that might have enabled the diners to infer its origin. Years afterward Haw i ker lighted on the nature of the "meat" when he read in an old hißtorv of Corn i wall that "the people of Boscastle do catch divers young soyles. which, doubtful if they lie fish or flesh, conynge housewives will nevertheless roast and do make thereof savory meat."—lxndon Globe.

SH ■ AUCTIONEER ■ ==s^ I BIRDS AND BRAINS The Canary Well Supplied, While the Poor Hen Is Sadly lacking Naturalists have arrived at the con* [ elusion that the brain in birds is large in proportion to the body. If it is ad mitted that intelligence depends upon the weight of the brain then the gold finch must be placed at the top of the list of birds. The brain weighs one fourteenth of its whole body. It must be remembered, however, that attempts to draw conclusions as to the intelligence of certain birds from a comparison of the weight of the brain with that of the body have been considered futile. In man the brain forms from one twenty-second to one-thirty-third of the whole body; in the canary, one-four teenth; the sparrow, one-twenty-fifth; the chaffinch, one-twentv-seventh; the redbreast, one-thirty-seeond; the black bird, one-sixty-eighth; the duck, one two-hundred-and-fifty-seventh ;the ea gle, one-two-hundred-and-sixtieth; the goose, one-threehundred-and-sixtieth; the domestic hen, one-four-hundred and-twelfth. By some the preternaturally cunning raven is supposed to be the most high ly developed of birds. His courage is so great that the eagle respects it, and his intelligence prevents him from get ting into unseen though suspected (ran gers.—London Spectator. How the fly would welcome a chance to mediate this swatting business.
