Matrimonial Dyspepsia, "Well, bow do you like married life?" inquired the friend. "Not at all." replied the man who had married money and was suffering for it "I'm a case of matrimonial dys pepsia." "Matrimonial dyspepsia?" "Yes. Slio never agrees with me; she's too rich." IN THE WORLD GF SPORT Billy Papke, Whom Middle weights Are Sidestepping. Since his disgraceful fiasco with old Joe Thomas, Hilly Papke. "the Illinois Thunderbolt," has made frequent and emphatic denials of any crookedness nbout the bout that went over the fif teen rounds by "mistake." Billy has declared up and down that he will show the California public that he can fight, and fight on the square. He picked Jim (Fireman) Flynn as his next opponent, but the bout was called off. Then he made a date with Jimmy Howard, and Jimmy has Just made it known that ho will not enter the ring with the "Thunderbolt." It looks as though mlddlewelghts were a little leary of tackling the husky representa tive of the Papke family lu his wrath. Cost of Running Baseball Club. Few people stop to consider the cost of keeping up a ball club. The ex pense goes on not only in the regular season, when the gates are working for the club, but it is a big proposition in the spring training camp. Man ager Hughle Jennings of the Detrolts recently estimated that the Tigers' ex pense a week while In training is Just I about $1,000. He remarked that that was only a beginning. "Wo have the hotel bill, the car to grounds, the baths and other like in cidentals to consider, and this makes the figures mentioned by me rather conservative when you consider that we have twenty-four men in the camp. "The Detroit club is liberal. It calcu lates on an outlay of from $10,000 to $15,000 during the training season. While the pay of the players does not start until April 15, the traveling ex penses, hotel fare and other Incidentals give a magnificent total and one that would appall were it not for the fact ' that a winning club is worth its weight In gold. - "This outlay is very nearly evened up in the first series of the league race, 1 but at that time the expenses keep running also. However, It Is not long ' before the spring debt Is rubbed out. "Our salary list? Well, wo pay out i about $100,000 a month for our play- , ers. Add that to the other large ex- j penses and you have some idea of the cost of a pennant winning ball club. ; A club has to take In somo pretty sizable crowds to get back the money I Fpent. And yet baseball Is paying In ! most towns." Playing Managers Now Scarce. There's nothing to It but that these are baseball's big. Important days and that Inside of n very few years there won't be a single player-manager left. Clarke and Chance admit that they've had enough that tho double work Is too strenuous for them. Uoth hope to go to tho bench next spring. It wasn't so many years ago that there were very few bench managers. Now tho majority of them operate from the coop to wit: McGraw, Lake, Dahlcu, Griffith, Mack, McAlecr, Donovan, Stalllngs, Duffy, McGuIre, Jennings and O'Connor. Ry the bye, notice there isn't a single 'player-manager In the American league. Manager Fred Clarke says that the slump his boys have taken Is some thing that comes to nil ball teams, and the team that cannot stand n Uttlo backwash now and then should never be classed as the real thing In base ball. ' Pessimistic Brown Fan Musings. What's the matter with tho St. Louis Browns? One St. Louis man replies: "They cau't hit. They havo no pitch ing staff worth tho name at present. They hare u first class baseman who is overanxious to make good. They have a star outfielder who reported six weeks late. They are demoralized through failure to get together at tho etart and through the fact that not a pitcher on tho staff can bold down the opposition. And if there's anything else you van think of you might in clude that too." Pitcher Vlckers Wants to Catch. Baltlmero may develop another Rog er Bresnahan. Pitcher Rube Vickers' dreams may materialize if the catch ing staff should get crippled. Ho has signified hU intentions along that lino nnd la patiently waiting for tho oppor tunity to don the wind pad and the wire screen. Like Roger, be may get his chance, and this chance may be the development of another pitcher, catcher. i DAMES AND DAUGHTERS. Mrs. W. G. Hoggs of Seattle.

EARTH CURRENT8. Experiments to Show Effects of Eleo trlc Traction 8ystems. Interesting experiments havo been made at the Kow Obscrvntory, near Loudon, on the effects of the electric crrronts produced In the earth by the electric traction systems of tho Drlt- I Ish metropolis. The delicate magnetic Instruments of the observatory arc- affected by the currents, j Metallic plates burled in the ground I wcro connected with a photographic ! recording apparatus, and the tracings recorded by the Instrument formed a picture of the tlme-tnblc of tho Lon don Central Railway, although the nearest point of approach ot that line Is six miles from Kow. Even accidental breakdowns occur ring on the traction line were Indicat ed In tho photographic record. Ry connecting the earth-plates with a sensitive galvanometer, the effect of the movements of the tramway con trollers was rendered evident, and, a telephone bolng attached, sounds were heard at each controller move ment. Great Tunnels Projected. Two projects for the construction of rnilway tunnels of unprecedented magnitude are now under discussion. One of them, which appeals strongly to the Imagination if It docs not enlist much sympathy among practical men, Is Monsieur de Lobel's plnn for tun neling Bering Strait to connect Si beria with Alaska. The author of this plan explained It before a largo meet ing of the Nnvy nnd Military Club at St. Petersburg recently. Bering Strait Is about 38 1-2 miles broad and 107 feet deep, but It has two Islands so situated that the tunnel could bo di vided Into three sections of about 12 1-2 miles each. The other project Is older, and relates to tunneling the English Channel between Dover and Calais. French engineers have re cently been studying the enterprise anew. The distance is about 23 1-2 miles. The work would be relatively easy because the tunnel would run through chalk. Peculiarities of Submarines. Equilibrium is almost as difficult to maintain for a submarine vessel as for an aeroplane. With modern large submarines, says Sir W. H. White, the act of diving Is performed when the vessels have headway. The bow Is depressed by horizontal rud ders controlled by skilled men. and the vessel moves obliquely downward. The desired depth having been attain ed, the steersman must so manage the horizontal rudders that the ves sel shall practically maintain Its level, but, In fact, Its course becomes really an undulating one, up and down. There must be no movements of men or weights In the vessel without Im mediate compensation to restore and maintain the balance, else the sub marine may dive to a disastrous depth. Manual has been found better than automatic control. School Children's Attention. Prof. W. Phillips read recently, bo fore the Royal Sanitary Institute In England, a paper detailing his obser vations on the limit of school chil dren's capacity for attention. He con cludes that two Intervals of rest of 10 minutes each during an ordinary school session are more useful than one of 20 minutes. The attention wanes more rapidly In the afternoon, and consequently the studies which most severely tax the attention, llko mathematics, should bo confined to the morning hours. Professor Phillips concludes that gymnastics Is not of necessity a mentally recuperative agent. If the teacher Is a strict disci plinarian In gymnastics, the fatigue exhibited by the children may be of a pronounced character. Vienna's Crown of Green. The city of Vienna has recently un dertaken, at an estimated expense of $10,000,000, to surround itself with a belt of forests. The existing forests near the city are to be preserved, and others, together with broad green meads, are to be established In such a way as completely to encircle the city. Land Is being reserved for the now plantations, which aro to bo con nected with the celebrated Prater, which already forms a green border for the Austrian capital on the cast. This Idea Is enthusiastically urged for the beautifying of the suburbs of other cities, which are now, In many cases, not only unattractive, but often hideous. About Egypt. Tho total area of Egypt proper Is about 480.000 squaromlles, of which, however, only some 14,000 square miles aro arable. Tho population ex ceeds 10,000,000, tho density of tho settled part thus surpassing that of any othor land on earth, Belgium not excepted. The superiority of Egypt as an agricultural country Is owing to tho equable climate; the possibility of carrying on farmlpg all tho year round, a constant supply ot water and, as a consequence of the Nile overflow, a natural and perpetual richness of the soil, which does away with the great cost of fertilization. Growth of City Population. In 1780 only one-thirtieth of the peoplo of the United Statos lived In cities of 8,000 inhabitants and over; in 1800, one twenty-fifth; in 1830, ono sixteenth; In 1840, one-twelfth; in 1850, one-tenth; in I860, one-sixth; In 1870, one-fifth; In 1880, one-fourth. It Is safe to say that to-day more than one-third of the people of the nation live in cities and towns, with the tendency steadily growing. If the present paco continues, by the middle of the present century the rural popu lation will become extinct Spinster's Strange Will. An extraordinary will has boon loft by an elderly unmarried lady who re cently died In Vienna. Her proporty, amounting to about $250,000, Is to be divided between her three nephews, now aged twenty-four, twenty-reven and twenty-nine, and her three nieces, ngod nineteen, twenty-one and tneuty two, In equal parts on the. follu.ving conditions: The six nephews nnd nieces r.-.ust all llvo in tho house formerly Inhabit ed by their aunt, with tho executor, a lawyer. None of the nephews Iz to marry before reaching his fortle'h year, nor tho nieces before their thir tieth; tho share of the one so mnrry lng will bo divided, Further, the six legatees nre admonished never to quarrel. If one should do so persistent ly tho executor Is empowered to turn him or her out of the houso and di vide the share. The executor Is him solf forbidden to marry or to reside elsewhere than In the house with tho legatees. Tho old maid Is said to have made this peculiar will because her nephews nnd nieces continually worried her by asking her to give them money to en able them to marry--requests she al ways refused. Vienna Correspond ence London Express. Value of Antitoxins. During the course of diseases caus ed by bacterial Infection, certain poisons (toxins) are developed in the blood by the bacteria, or exist In tho bodies of tho bacteria. Nature, In com bating tho disease, produces certain principles In the serum of the blood of the patient, called antitoxins, which antagonize the action of the toxins. These principles have not been isolat ed, but they are used to combat dis ease artificially by Injecting blood se rum which contains them Into the tissues of a person suffering with the bacterial disease to aid him In neu tralizing the toxins resulting during that disease. Antitoxins combating the poisons of snake-bite, pneu monia, tuberculosis, yellow fever, bubonic plague, cholera and oth er ailments have been prepared and used. The one most often employed is the diphtheria antitoxin, which is called simply antitoxin." Human Antiquity. The credit of Inaugurating the line of research which has resulted in de monstrating the existence of the hu man race on this earth for tens if not hundreds of thousands belong to the French scientist, M. Boucher de Per thes. Possessed by the energy and enthusiasm of a truly scientific spirit, he devoted himself from 1836 to 1S41 to a thorough exploration of certain an cient caves, pat-mosses and deposits in the vicinity of Abbeville and in the shape of arrowheads, (lint axes, knives, hammers, etc., which started the Investigation that was to knock the accepted chronology to pieces and establish for man a record for anti quity of which the world of this day had never dreamed.

Dene-Holes. Thcso curious well-like excavations, found In Kent and Sussex, aro popu larly supposed to belong to the tlmo of the Danish rule In England. They are Invariably nbout 3 feet In diame ter nnd seldom" less than CO feet deep. Ingress nnd egress were provided for by means of rude ladders or ropes. Various explanations have been offer ed to account for their existence -somo supposing them to havo been places of refuge, others that they were connected with secret forms of worship, still others that they were dug for tho extraction of chalk and places of refuge, others that they flint Mr. A. J. Philip, In a recent study of the subject, ndvocates the view that the holes were made to serve as silos, or granaries. They are found closo together In groups, corre sponding with the habit of various tribes ot clustering In restricted areas. Dogwood. The Industrial value of dogwood la probably but little appreciated except by manufacturers and users of bob bins, shuttles and spindles employed In cotton and woolen-mills. These aro made of dogwood or persimmon wood, and hitherto the supply has come from tho Southern Stnte3. The Forest Service now calls attention to the fact that the supply In that part of the country Is nearly exhausted. Fortunately dogwood abounds In Ore gon, Washington and California, and large plants for the manufacture ot spindles have recently been erected In the Cascades In Oregon. In the East an attempt has been made to substi tute the wood of the mesqult and tho tupclo for dogwood. The mesqult Is very hard, heavy and close-grained; the tupelo Is heavy, but less hard. It has the valuable property of wearing Bmooth by friction.
