CAREER OF C. 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.

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

would not thinkof stopping across
tho street without putting on his
overcoat. 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?

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.

INDIANS KNOW A COWARD.
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.
