New York Bun. Mt person have the Ida that the cheer leader, with hi corp of assistants, is comparatively a new thing In college sporta, but It ap pear from what an old Pennsyl vanlan has to any that lh habit of having a leader for eat cheering dates back li year. Thl la probably tne oldest eeiablUhed college system. Long before that cheering used to be a matter of class rivalry, and In 1888 an editorial In Tha Pennsylvan ia n says sneerlngly :It wa noticed that at least one of the clae who yelled so loud and long Monday morn In gafter our great victory over Wes ltyan had not a malt oa tn team who had scored. " It waa In 1894 that Pennsylvania be gan tha organised cheering grunt. Wagonhurst, a craw man, was ap pointed cheer leader, with several athlete and enthusiast a aawlatant. On of the assistant, Ho ranee Beck, took charge tn 199S and for three year led the yellers. He la re- fiuted to have pot more spirit and Sre nto tha cheer than almost any man since, After him Tom Donaldson held sway until 1899. K. B. Rich and John 8. Barnes were leaders in 1900 and 1961 and then came the greatest of Penn' cheer leader, ae be 1 call ed, Frank B. Tupper. He led cheer from 1902 until 190S, and It la a cer tainty that hi gyrations and contor tions stirred up great enthualaam.' Tupper' picture appeared In the newspapers during hi incumbency quite a frequently aa that of any athlete. John Brown, a craw man; Lloyd Jones, a track athlete, and Morton Gtbbons-Neff have held the plac in turn since. It ts a great honor at PeaMylvmnla end le eayorjr. gomht, SHOULD STAND FAT. Grnsboro Record Commmts on Electrical War Now In Progress In the Citr Tho Beet Policy. Tha Greensboro Record. It I none ef our business, but w cannot resist the temptation to say that the Charlotte Electric Railway, Lbxht A Power Co. la adopting the wrong course in dealing with the cut made by the Southern Power Com pany, the new concern just entering tho local field. Mr. E. D. Latta, w believe, la the owner of the home company. In our opinion he should make the fight just like the Southern Stock Mutual made Ita defense when the Southeastern Tariff Association made war on If by cutting rates. The bom company stood pat and demon strated that the only object was to run It out, after which the Tariff As sociation would put on the screws, compelling ths people to pay more than ever. Whether thl was true or not made no difference; tho public accepted It a a fact and stood by the Stock Mutual. The fight was long and somewhat bitter, but lt"Won out. . - Mr. Latta, ws presume, has been giving the people satisfaction, la v. htrh case they will standi by him If the matter, 1 put before them la tho right light, pf course, wa are not familiar with' the conditions in Charlotte; but If the people are ex pecting a cut rata to last they will get fooled, far -the cut was probably made to Induce Mr. Latta to sell out. expeatlng to force him, and If the plan succeeds, right then the public will have to pay higher rates SOLDIERS MORE CONTESTED. Improved Conditions Among- tbe En- nstea Men in tne army. Army and Navy Life. There la a growing feeling of con tentment end satisfaction among the enlisted men ot the service, within the past few weeks many old soldier who had taken their discharge from tha army after twenty or more years of service have re-enlisted, while the discbargee by purchase have very ma terially decreased, having of late been confined almost exclusively to men serving tn the, first and second year of their first enlistment. The Improved condition of the service end ita Increased attractive ness are Illustrated as far as ths army is concerned in the case of an old soldier who. waa drawing a pen sion ta the City of Washington, and who was employed on the local police fores, hi aggregate pension being about 10 a month. This man ha re-enlleted. He had served ebout twenty-three years, and two enlistment with al lowance of double time service tn the tropics would make him eligible tor eured In advance of being made a retirement, and as he had been -non-commissioned officer soon after bis new enlistment he ha every , reesoa . to count on retirement as - ev sergeant or first sergeant within a comparatively short time on- retired pay, wttii com mutation allowances; of about 854 e month., . . v Poo So Kxcluded.
