THE NEXT ANGLO-AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL SPORTS.
Captain Rice of the Harvard trick team, in an interview reported in an American dispatch, says that the retum series of international sports between English and American Univers sities has been arranged,
The place where the games will be held is not yet decided on. They might compete on the Columbia University track, but the most. satisfactory arrangement would be to have the games held on either the Yale or Harvard fields.
The joint team will be as strong as it was last year, although Harvard will lose Quinlan, the sprinter, Burke, the quarter miler, and Fox, the hurdler, Yale will lose Palmer, the two mile runner; Fisher, the quartermiler, and Spitzer, the one-mile runner, Oxford and Cam bridge will not lose a man who won a point. Theirabsentees will be Adair, the high jumper, Danson, the distance man, and Thomas, the sprinter.
While Captain Rice did not give any solution as to the grounds the game would be held on, there is no reason to suppose that there will be any difference in the method of settling who will have that say. Heretofore the winners of dual games have selfied all such questions, and it is at least likely that the same method will be used this year.

The people who write so glibly about the decadence of England, says a writer in the Pall Mall Gazette, are not likely to look for scientific support for their wishes, and if they did, might have difficulty in finding it; for the English at present exhibit none of the chafac teristics of a decadent nation. But few things: are more obscure than the causes which lead to the more or less complete offacement of a people, and the anthropological theories on the subject do not derive much support from his tory, Thus, M. Topinard, one of the most cautious and soundest of anthropologists, considers-that-prominent among theso-causes te the importation of new diseases, change of habits, the impossibility of adapting oneself. to new conditions, and, of course, foreign con- quest, which often includes some of the others. This view is apparently borne out by the history of people like the Esquimaux, who are gradually dying out of North America from the increasing severity of the cold; or the Tasmanians, who were practically exterminated | by our own colonists; or the Caribs, who did ---not-dong survive the coming of the Spaniards But more highly organised" communities seem able to resist such influences for almost un limited time, and they certainly had but tittle-Fischter, Miss C. hand in the extinction of the great nations of Foster, M.

Then came the extraordinary conquest of the then known world by an army of the same.

These kings soon began to make war upon one another, with the result that Greece became so drained of blood that she who drove back Asia was unable to protect herself against Halertet, H. what was still a petty European Power: She Hope, F.

The fact is that war, when excessively pro-Helin, Capt, C. tracted or merciless, attacks a nation in Its mast vital part. Instead of removing, as does pesti lence or famine, the very young, the weakly, and the decrepit, it takes away the most vigorous part of the community, who are better fitted than their neighbours to bù the proge: nitors of the race. So our Wars of the "Roses | Hosenbloxen, F. practically extinguished among us the Nor man blood which had given the nation, a' weight in the Crusades and the early French wars out of all proponion to our territory or numbers; and the Napoleonic wars are held by many to be responsible for the stationary condition and perhaps) tersporary eclipse of France in our own times. Fortunately for Europe, the comparative bloodlessness so far.
