DRYDEIi, BASE-BALL HUMORIST, North American's Star Sport ing Writer Has Been Describ ing Game Since 1HP.9. STARTED IN THE WEST. Has Been by Turns Sailor. Angler, Iron Moulder and War Correspondent. Among the special writers who pive The North American sport ing department its distinction none is better known than Chas. Drydcu. Mr. Dryden has been called the George Ado of base ball. His humor is as fresh and as sponta neous as that of the famous au thor of Fables in Slang. His in imitable reports of base-ball games are entirely characteris tic. Nobody writes like him, no bidy trots the same infectious twists and turns of merriment, and none of his imitators lias suc ceeded in reproducing the en tiro ly unforced effect. For the last thirteen years Dryden has class ed by himself in this particular braur-h of newspaper writing. In 1!) he mude his first essay as a base-ball wit. This was in Chicago. Ho wrote up a game in imitation of the stilted, archaic phrase of P.ible language. S(.'()lii:i) INSTANT HIT. It scored an instant hit, and iu a short time tdl the promim-nt papers of the West wore bidding for his services. For seven years he stayed West, changing be tween San Francisco and Taco ma. In 1MM, when W. 11. Hearst bought the New York Jorucal, he secured the services of Dry den. When he had been less than a yei.r in the metropolis he had his memorable quarrel with An drew Freed man. He was shut out of the New York grounds, but kept up a long-distance tire of raillery on the ecceutric owner of the Giants and kept not only New Yoi ic but the entire country convulsed by his clever quips. in liM-.ui The North Americau took a notion tiiat it wanted Dry den to round-out tho strong statT. Hearst was averse to parting with his crack sporting writer and made him exceptional offers to stay. Hut the proprietor of tho Jour nal was outbid and Dryden carne t' Philadelphia. Ho came back in I'.mjI, aud is now under con tract for the present season of 1903. HAD WIDE KXI'KKIKNCi:. Mr. Dryden is a newspaper writer of wide experience. He has had a varied career, having from time to time been a sailor, an iron moulder, fisherman and war correspondent. He repre sented a San Francisco paper in .Samoa when the rival kings were fighting for the throne. Tho other branches of sport are looked after by an ablo corps of specialists. A particular effort is made to get tho fullest rejnirts of amateur baso ball games. On opening days and impor tant events staff writers and pho- tographors are sent from tho of fico, and tho contests are covered with the samp caro that is given to reports of major league games. WORDS OF BIBLE COUNT ED. How, Where and When a Pris oner Found Their Number. It is well known that the num ber of letters, words, verses, etc., contained in the Hible have been counted, but by whom, when or ' where, is not generally known. ' Treat' publication, entitled lot tlio occurrence as being o r,P!in,sl1 origin, and that the i 1'i'inoo of Cratmda, foarinir usur- lwtio' "iuspd tho arrest of the! supposed would be usurper, and by order of tlie Spanish crown he was thrown iDto an old prison ) called the place of skulls, situat- 1 ed in Aiadrid, where lie was con fined for thirty throe years, with no other companion than the rats mice and other vermin that fre queuted his dismal cell. During his confinement lie counted the letters, etc., contain ed in the Hible, and scratched tho several numbers on the stone walls with a nail. When his work ! was discovered he was furnished I with writing utensils aud ordr I ed to make a copy of tho results : of his long and tedious task, and, on its being complete, ho finally I received his liberty. The follow I iug is a correct copy of his great work: The Hible contains 3,50(5, -10 letters, 773,740 words, 31,173 verses, 11(15 chapters and (50 hooks. Tho word and occurs 10,0-1 times, the word Jehovah ('5.S55 times and tho word reverend but once, which is in the ninth verse of tho 111th Psalm. The middle verse is the eighth verse of tho llftth Psalm. The twenty-first verso of tho seventh chapter of Ezra contains all tho letters of tho alphabet except the letter j. The finest chapter to read is tho twenty-sixth chapter of the Acts of tho Apostles. The most beautiful chapter is the twenty third Psalm. The nineteenth chapter of II Kings and thirty seventh chapter of Isaiah are alike. The four most inspiring prom ises are to bo found in the sixth chapter of St. John, thirty-seventh verse, and fourteenth chap ter, second verse; also eleventh chapter ot St. Matthew, twenty eighth verse, and the thirty-seventh Psalm, fourth verse. The longest verse is the ninth verse, eighth chapter of Esther. The shortest verso is the thirty fifth verse, eleventh chapter of St. John. There are ten chapters in the book of Esther in which tho words Lord and God do not occur. The eighth, fifteenth, twenty-first aud thirty-first verses'Jfif tho 107th Psalm are alike. Each verse of the 13Gth Psalm end alike. The 117th Psalm contains but two verses. There are no words or names of more than six syllables. It has been discovered by some person unknown that in Joel, third chapter, third verse, the word girl occurs, and in the eighth chapter of Zachariah, fifth verso, the word girl's is mention ed for tho only time iu the whole book. The eighth chapter of Esther, ninth verse, contains tifty-two t's. The word snow appears twenty four times in tho Old Testament aud three times in tho New. Hos ton Herald. DISASTROUS WRECK. Carelessness is responsible for many a railroad wreck and the same causes are making human wrecks of sufferers from throat aud lung troubles. But since the advent of Dr. King's New Discov ery for consumption, coughs and colds, even the worst cases can bo cured, and hopeless resigna tion is no longer necessary. Mrs. Lois Cragg of Dorchaster, Mass., is one of many whoso life was sav ed by Dr. King's New Discovery. This great remedy is guaranteed for all throat and lung diseases by all druggist. 50c., and 1.00. Trial bottle free. THE HARDY SEX. it is yet to bo proved that wo men who wear low shoes are more subject to colds than those who wear high shoes, says tho Chica go Inter Ocean. As yet, it is to bo proven that thoso who aro con stantly on their guard against what is called exposuro live long er than those who do not care. When women not only survive a fickle climate, but come out of its most trying changes in clothing of a weight that men would hard ly feel, it is difficult to seo iiow their health can suffer because thoy wear low shoes. Now, take a man take tho aver age man. He puts on five thick nesses of clothing on a cold day, He U not content if the tempe ra ture is below 75 In his office, lie I ;fAool Carding and Carpet Weaving H. H.

In most cases he would not venture out without his muf fler and overshoes. And take that man's wife. She wears two or three thin thicknesses of cloth iug. She doesn't mind the weath er. She will meet the blasts rf wiuter with unconcern. In her home, she will follow a caller to the door, out on the veranda, and talk and talk, entirely unmindful of wraps. Her husband takes colds all kinds of colds every kind that is going, lie wouders why ho takes cold. His wife is good enough to wonder with him and tells him he must bo more careful of himself. Maybe she will insist that in ad dition to all of his other precau tious against exposure he shall wear a chest protector or a por ous plaster. Hut she takes no colds. That is, she seldom does, and, if she does, she attributes the cold she takes not to careless ness, but to the fact that she has inadvertently undertaken to bo too careful of herself. If she or any other woman finds greater comfort in low than she does in high shoes, why blame her for wearingtlieforiuery Even if she wears low shoes and openwork stockings from puro vanity, why blame her? Ars not the women of America healthy? Are not they strong? Aro they . i 1 .i: ii .., uou uiiruier man ine men as a rule? Then why not let them have their own way about low shoes, openwork stockings and everything else that gives them comfort or pleasure? COST OF GOOD ROADS. Local Advantages to be Derived From Sproul Bill. Wilmer Atkinson, editor of the "Farm Journal'" has been figur ing out the exteut of the local ad- vantages to be derived from the Sproul good roads law, just enact ed. Ho finds they will not be suf ficient to warrant any township in easing up in its own effort to im prove tho highways. Mr. Atkinson applies his calcu lations to Upper Dublin township Montgomery county, in which he resides, and sets fortfi the result ' in an article published in the Am- bier "Gazette." This is what he says: "The first year $500,000 is to be distributed among the different counties, if applied for, the coun ties to distribute their sharq among the townships, if applied for, and all conditions are com plied with. It is not likely that all the townships in the state will make application, but if thejT do, not many miles of roads will be built in a township the size of Up per Dublin, which is. about the average size in tho county. "There are said to be 10,000 miles of roads in tho state, the 10,000 miles available in the first two years would servo to macada mize 250 miles not more. Up per Dublin's share of the funds would cover loss than SJ00 feet. "There aro 52SO feet in a mile. Of tho whole $0,000,000 to bo appropriated our portion, provid ing all other counties claim their share, would enable our township to macadamize one milo of road. If we aro ablo to do' more than this it will be because other dis tricts do not apply for state aid to which they are entitled. The ex tent of such default no one can do more than guess. 'So the idea may as well be dis missed that the township aban don tho present strenuous move ment for good road and wait for state aid. We will trot our share of Btate 'aldt but the amo.Jnt of u during tho season. Thankful for a continuance of the same. Your Column.

An Oklahoma man once told an Indian that a desoerate white ,naii was after his scalp, says the Kansas City Journal. He-smiled and shook his head. "A few days later," continues the narrator, "wo were talking to the white mau, when the Indian came up to joiu tlie group. He had spot ted the stranger and knew him by sight. Without saying a word to him he walked up within arm's reach and struck the white man in the face with a rough, heavy glove. He paused for a few sec onds and hit him again. 'Ugh!' he exclaimed as ho wheeled around and walked away. The white man looked at the Indian in amazement, but made no show of resentment. Later in the day, when we asked tho Indian why lie didn't follow up the insult with blows, ho told us the white man was a coward. In explain ing how he knew it, he said the man's 'jaw dropped when he struck him in the face the sec ond time with tho glove, and that this with the Iudian was an un failing sign of cowardice." Nothing has ever equalled it. Nothing can ever surpass it. Dr. King's Now Discovery ForQS' ONrMFTION SOLUM 1 1 imi ... Mcill.M A Perfect For All Throat and Curej ; Lung Troubles.
