SPORT
Mathewson, Giants' Star
Pitcher, Saving His Whip.
Photo by American Press Association.
Christy Mathewson, It Is said, is us
ing a different system oi pitching now
from what ho did formerly. Matty
realizes that ho cannot last forever, yet
he wants to stay as long as ho can;
consequently ho Is giving his arm all
the rest he can. Mathewson is saving
his mighty right arm. As ho grows
older Matty realizes that the tlmo is
approaching when ho will be compel
led to retire. For that reason ho doesn't
use great speed nt all times, but em
ploys methods that Ueep his fielders
away. It Is only when he finds him
self in tight places that Matty puts
smoko on the ball to bowl over the op
posing batsmen. Hcadwork rather
than brute strength Is the secret of
Mathowson's pitching this season. His
prcstlgo remains incomparable, nnd
tho moment ho appears on tho mound
the Giants' rivals seem to know they
aro up against a hard proposition.
Cruise of Great Lakes League.
Thoflrst annual reliability cruise
contest of tho Great Lakes Power
Hggt league for tho Commodore
Scrlpps trophy will start from Detroit,

dlstanco to be covered Is C42 miles,

tho yacht or motorboat clubs at the
different ports tho headquarters where
various entertainments will bo pro
vided. It Is expected that from twelve to
fifteen boats will be entered in the
cruise, tho entries being largely made
by tho different engine manufacturers,
as tho Intention of tho cruise is to
bring out practically all the good and
bad points of the different engines and
mako it tho Glidden tour of the motor
boat industry. Boats to bo eligible
must bo of the cruiser type, not under
thirty feet In length, and must havo a
speed of not loss than eight miles an

ered Is eighty miles a day.
Cornell May Row Navy Next Year.
There Is every reason to believe that
Cornell will row against tho Naval
academy crow at Annapolis next
spring. This Information has been
given out by Ensign Jonas H. Ingram,
who refereed tho recent race between
Harvard and Cornell.
Ingram, who was ono of tho best
oarsmen tho academy ever turned out
and who stroked tho eight at Pongh
keepslo, N. I., four years ago, stated
that tho Cornell rowing management
would very likely bring a large por
tion of tho squad to Annapolis so that
the crow could get on tho water earlier
than Is possiblo at Ithaca.
Joe Jackson's Career.
Joe Jackson, now with the Cleveland
Naps, has played In four different
leagues. In each organization he led
all hands in batting. Ho started with
Greenville, in tho Carolina league, and
topped tho field with a batting aver
ago of .840. With Savannah he led
with .358, and with New Orleans ho
was the pacemaker with .354. Last
year, with Cloveland, in twenty-sis
games ho led tho American league,
beating out Cobb nnd Lnjolo with .3S7
per cent Jackson's grand average dur
ing his short career is .302 per cent
Lynch a Disciplinarian.
Suspensions and fines are almost an
everyday occurrenco in tho National
league nowadays, whereas If memory
serves right not a slnglo player or a
manager has been punished in the
American league by tho chief execii'
tlve. President Lynch is doing his best
to preserve discipline, but apparently
lacks the support of some of tho club
owners.
i
Mors Keene Horses to Raoo Abroad.
James It. Keeno has decided to send
twelve or fourteen yearlings nnd fillies
to his stablo in England, which will
give him ono of tho biggest stables of
American horses now tn that country,
Major Dasgerflcld, who has charge of
,Mr. Koeno'a Costleton farm, tn Ken-
tncky, will pick oat tho moBt desirable
colts for tho trip to tho other side.
RESPECT FOR LAW TO
BE TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS.
National Educational Committee Rec
ommends Civio Course.
"Disregard for lnw is fast becoming
an American characteristic," was the
finding of a report made by the ciun
mlttce on a system of teaching morals
in the public schools at the first ses
sion of the National Council of Edu
cation of tho National Educational as
sociation recently in session at San
Frnncisco.
Declaring tho nineteenth century to
havo been "the marvel of the ages,"
"especially In the accumulation of
wealth nnd tho capitalistic centraliza
tion nnd control of the output and dis
tribution of tho comforts nnd neces
saries of life," tho report declared tho
chief problem of the twentieth cen
tury to bo "to control these gigantic
enterprises."
"Tho pernicious practice of giving re
bates and discriminating against ship
pers; the prevalence of graft, boodllng
nnd bribery; tho white slave tralUc,
mobs, riots and lynchlngs" were cited
as Instances of lawlessness. To meet
this situation, tho report said, "certain
elemcntnl virtues must bo inculcated
in childhood and youth." and a tenta
tive courso of instruction to this end
was offered.
This course begins with tho teach
ing In kindergarten of tidiness, obedi
ence and self sacrifice, considers in tho
grammar grades tho inculcating of in
dividual virtues, Hko patriotism, cour
age nnd determination, and concludes
with a high school courso covering tho
relations of tho individuals to society,
to a vocation and to tho state and the
study of the family as tho foundation
of society. The report was signed by
Chairman James M. Greenwood, super
intendent of schools, Kansas City;
Martin G. Brumbaugh, superintendent
of schools, Philadelphia; John V.
Carr, superintendent of schools, Bny
onne, N. J.; William Lowe Bryan, pres
ident of Indiana university, Blooming
ton, Jnd., and Clifford W. Barnes,
chairman of the committee; on moral
training, Chicago.

CHAMP'S IDEA OF HUMOR.
What He Thinks the "Funniest Thlnn
8ald In a Hundred Years."
"When Representative Alexander of
Missouri was speaker of tho house in
tho Missouri legislature he said the
funniest thine that has been said in
a hundred years," said Speaker Clark
tho other day.
"About fifty members wcro In front
of tho speaker's rostrum clamoring for
recognition. A man named Moore,
who possessed a mighty pair of lungs,
yelled Into Spoaker Alexander's face,
'Does tho speaker recognize, me? Tho
huhbub ceased.
" 'It seems to me,' eaid Speaker Alex
ander slowiy as if searching tho re
cesses of bis mind, 'that at eomo tlmo
or other I havo seen that ugly mug of
yours.'
"They still call Mr. Mooro 'Ugly
Mug" down In Missouri."
The Glory Worshipers.
A clergyman wbo was In London dur
ing coronation week says that lie saw
Americans paying 2.60 each .tor tho priv
ilege ot touching the seats where the king
and his court sat during the ceremonies.
The Clymer-Snobba ore home again,
Chuck full ot exaltation
Because they've seen
A king and queen
En route to coronation.
Puffed up? They are so high In air
We scarce can hold them down,
And common folks
To them ore jokes
Down here In Punklntown.
Why Mrs. Clymer-Snobbs she has
A paving stone, they say,
Dug from the Strand.
A peer bo grand .
Stepped on It on his way.
She wears It as a diadem,
Ab she might wear a crown.
Ten pounds it weighs;
But, then, she says,'
It staggers Punklntown.
Statins Tommy Rnobbs upon his brow
Still sports a bump he got
By being hit .
A little bit .
By a guardsman's rifle butt.
He's had It elided so 'twill lost
And nevermore go down,
And 'twill surprise
And dim the eyes
Of us In Punklntown.
They havo a cabinet full of things
A chunk of London fog,
A whisker pale
Sneaked from the tall
Of Lady PluESbugg's dog.
They cost so much they've got to skimp
Ana keep their meat bills down.
But what ot that?
It makes "eclat"
Stir them In Punklntown.

ed Is tho Invention of a Pennsylvania
woman. Tho seat of tho chair, which

soak Into the wood nnd loosen the bris
tles. Parsnips With Cream.
