pitcher Daub of Brooklyn, when in
Durham Wednesday, said: "Of all the

visited with a ball team, I have seen
nowhere the equal of Chapel Hill, for
grounds, climate and surroundings.
Mr K. S. Askew "JS left Wednes
day for his. home in Windsor, where
he' will spend some time. We trust
that he will soon recover his slumbering-
power, ttie loss of which seems to
be troubling him.
Mr. J. K. Pfohl spent Sunday in
D.iieirh, where he delivered an ad
dress bef ore the Young Men's Chris
tian Association of that city. All of
the Raleigh papers speak in most com
plimentary terms of Mr. Pfohl, and
there can be nothing better to say for
Mr Pfohl than that the crowd which
filled the Y. 'M. C. A. Assembly Hall
was highly pleased with his address
on "The Strong Man."
Dr. Linscott's Lecture on Zoroaster.
The regular semi-monthly Fac
ulty lecture was delivered Thurs
day night by Dr. Linscott on "Zo
roaster, HVs People, Language,
Religion."
His study of the subject was well
condensed, and each head received
such consideration as was necessary
to make it thoroughly clear to all
present. '
A brief life of Zoroaster, the
prophet and teacher of Iran, with
some conjectures as to his birth and
references to the wide extent of his
influence, made u p the opening
thought of the subject proper, and
following this was a discussion of
the Persian people, who were mem
bers of the- Indo-European family
and relatives of the Romans, Greeks,
Germans, Celts and lavs; of their
language, as we have it in the sa
cred writings of this great reform
er and teacher; and lastly of the
dual religion "which he taught and
with which he made kings b o w
down in humble submission.
Some concluding remarks were
made upon the offspring of Zoroas
trtanism in this age and time and
due tribute paid to their high mor
al character.
Dr. Linscott kept up well with
the standard set by those preceding
him, and was greeted by a good at-tendence.
Rooting as a Fine Art.
Rooting when properly consider
ed can only appear in its true light,
as one of the fine arts. And it must
be admitted, at least if the rooting
on last Saturday during the Vir
ginia game is a fair example, that
with us it is well nigh one of the lost
arts. ;
It is with some humiliation that
we are brought to admit in this
manner our deficiency as rooters.
For altho a melancholy and lament
ble fact, it is one meriting serious
consideration and cannot be well
suppressed. -
The success of the team during"
thegames with our visitors depends
much upon the manner of our root
ingi There can be little doubt but
that a timely expression of encour
agement and enthusiasm by the
wearers of the white and blue in
spires to more determined and
greater effort our heavy hitters and
swift base runners.
But at the same time there exists
serious disbelief that the discordant
and ill-regulated shouting of Satur
day 's game has at all this effect.
Ill-advised rooting of this nature is
equally trying to nerves and preju
dicial to base hits.
The bleachers and side lines on
Saturday constituted a point of van
tage from which were hurled
schrieks, prayers, Entreaties, hisses,
howlino-s and the what not ot high
vocal expression. The final pro
duct on a much grander 1 scale was
something akin to the confusion of
tongues at the tower of Babel.
This matter should be better
managed in future. Judicious root
ing is" a good thing. Well regulat
ed and uniform cheering helps to
win the game. Let us have, if pos
sible, more of it and to better pur
pose. This was written shortly
after the Virginia game and is now
thrown in to fill up. A aeciaea
improvement has been - apparent in
the rooting since inai umc ivu.j
