Q8CAR STRAUS, LATE OF College , Men Will Figure Prominently In Coming Big Meets. GOOD MEN FOR "HUNDRED." With Hebner, Whithington and Chambers, . Nw Marks Are v Expected. 8hryoek , Intercollegiate 220 Yard Record Holder. ; The collegiate indoor Swimming season has begun, and from now on collegians will be very much in evidence In all the big open meets. The men representing tbe athletic clubs will in future have to look to their laurels, as the college swimmers are doing better than ever before. f The new A. A. TJ. idea of confining Indoor racing to the sprints favors the colleges, which have but very few good distance men, and it looks as if the district and even the national championships would see varsity- stars returned winners, st least of places. The list of indoor events will contain this year 00, 100, 220, 600 and 1,000 'yard swims, breast and back stroke races, plunging, fancy diving and : four man relay, races, ' each to swim 100 yards. - For the shorter sprint there are dozens of students who will give the best In the country a run for their money. H. J. Hebner of Notre Dame 'Is credited with 254-0 seconds for the distance, Wheaton Chambers and E. Denniston of Princeton have done 26 seconds flat; and Paul Whitblngton of Harvard, Karl Schmitt of the City college. Edward Eichards and Otto Schwars qf Yale and Shryock of Pennsylvania have all broken 27 seconds, while men able to go better than 28 seconds are found in almost every college. . ".':".;."' At a hundred yards we find Hebner, "vYhltbington and Chambers with under one minute practice marks, and all three have beaten 61 seconds in competition, times that only Daniels and Rich have equaled among club men. Richards, Shryock, Stoddart and Dalrympie have to their credit centuries between 1 minute 2 seconds and 1 minute 3 seconds, and there are several 1 minute 4 seconds men. The furlong is a harder distance for collegians, and on last year's performances they would seem to be rather backward, John Shryock of Pennsylvania leading the Held with a record of 2 minutes 48 1-5 seconds. Still, much has happened since then, and there are many who believe that Whitblngton, Dalrympie, Shryock, Stoddart, Schmitt and Hebner will all be able to travel under 2 minutes 45 seconds and one or ir ill II I i 5 JIM 5 St MassJ3 oomr sebtock. nrrxBroi.ijraiATB' S30 xabs UCOBO HOLOII. two of then heat .2 minutes 40 seconds.

ROOSEVELT CABINET.

Champion Buq Goodwin in tne quarici mile metropolitan championship by Karl Schmitt shows that one man at least developed very rapidly after tbe closing of college last spring, and just its he advanced so may bare others. Hebner is said to be able to do 5 minutes 50 seconds for 440 yards, which would give him a place in the championship, and Shryock, Stoddart, Whithington and Dalrympie are all better than 0 minutes. There has been no chance to judge of these men at a thousand yards, and they would hardly train for such an event when the longest distance on the intercollegiate schedule is the furlong. Nor will collegians figure in breast and back stroke swimming, for these styles are not practiced at all at the universities. ' Southern Swimming Championships. The South Atlantic association of tbe A. A. TJ. will hold a championship swimming meet Feb. 12 and 13 at the Baltimore Athletic club in Baltimore. The winners of tbe many events which are scheduled will be awarded gold and silver prises. The events are 100, 220 and 440 yard races, an eighty yard back stroke and a breast stroke of the same distance. A 160 yard relay race will prove an Interesting affair. Med: ale will also be awarded ' for fancy diving, plunge and polo. THOUGHT STRIKE HAS BEEN AVERTED Anthracite Mine Leaders Hold a Meeting. Wilkesbarre, Pa., March 5. The leaders of the anthracite mine Workers went into session today at noon to discuss the arguments which are to be presented to operators at a forthcoming conference which, it is understood, President Lewis has arranged for. It is now believed that the suspension of work will be averted. PROF. RICHTER IS A SUFFERER Feared He Has Serious Bone Disease. Prof. Joseph RIcbter of St. Andrew's parochial school, has to walk with the aid of a cane and a part of the time with the aid of a crutch. It is believed that he has tuberculosis of the bone In one of his knees. Considerable i anxiety is expressed by his friends regarding the seriousness of his trouble. It may be necessary to amputate the member. Prof. Richter, when in college, injured his knee, but never thought much about the trouble at the time.

LUNCHEON WAS SERVED At tbe annual roll call meeting of tola lodge Knights of Pythias last evening, the members invited their families and following a very short business session of the lodge, the time was spent in entertainment. There were about 275 persons present including about 100 members. The membership of the order numbers 23? persons.

Lunch was served in the lower hall and several responded to toasts. The upper hall was used for dancing. BUNCHOFHARD LUCK Smallpox Follows Fall of Lit tie Helen Owens, Which Fractured Her Skull. ORIGIN IS .A MYSTERY Just as she was recovering from injuries received two weeks ago, including a fracture on the skull four inches in length, Little Helen Owens, the eight year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Owens, 32 North Tenth street was taken ill with the small pox. She had been confined to her bed since sustaining the injuries two weeks ago and it is perplexing to the authorities as to where she contracted the disease. Her father is a railroader and there are also several boarders living in the house. Sanitary Officer George Young has fumigated the property thoroughly. AFTER DEATH. Largs Parts of th Body Ratafn Life For a Tims. To the unscientific citizen it Is something of a surprise to learn that large parts of tbe body are alive and useful after the phenomenon popularly known as death has taken place. - Few of us suspect, for example, that our kidneys and hearts after we have died . ourselves can In most cases be resuscitated and that if by some surgical miracle they coujd be transplanted Into another body they would quickly resume their . functions. This, bowever. Is a well demonstrated . medical fact. The human heart .has been re-' moved from the body more than thirty hours after death and . made to beat again. Dr. Carrel himself has taken tbe heart from one dog and Inserted it In tbe neck of another, connecting the aorta with the carotid artery of the new heart and tbe vena cava with its jugular vein. In a few moments tbe live dog bad two hearts rhythmically beating, one recording a pulse of eighty-eight and the other a hundred. Science has yet framed no precise definition of death.- The human body teems and quivers with life, only a small part of which becomes a part of individual consciousness. The healthy man hardly realizes the numerous and complex activities of his Internal organs. The alimentary canal is the abiding place of millions of micro organisms, the activities of which only occasionally influence our dally life. Bodily tissue everywhere Is constantly breaking down and constantly building up. snd'yet it Is only in the last few, years that even science has begun to understand the beautiful chemical reactions Involved ' in the process. McClure's Magazine. THE COOK'S INJURY. Painful to Her and to the Dinner Guests as Well. There was company at dinner, and the platter In front of the host contained a fine roast of beef." He drew the sharp earring knife across the ringing steel a few times, just because that is a way carvers have., drove the fork deep into the steaming beef, described a scalping knife flourish in the air and gracefully began operations. Two nice and tender slices clear across the roast had resulted, and be was turning off tbe third when the blade struck a skewer, made a sliding upward motion and came out at the top, with a result that the proposed slice looked like a frost bitten leaf curled up by the sun. . .
