Our Natienal Game. “The raw Aunerican citizen,” says Ellis Parker Butler in Success Maga- zine, “who takes his seat at a ball game for the first time feels as ke would should he drop into the Metro- politan Opera House and find himself hearing Wagnerian opera from a seat in the midst of seasoned German opera goers. He hears’a language that is new to him. The man at his right can tell more ibout the first baseman’s peculiarities than he could tell about the manners of his own wife. The man at his left has trouble remember- ing the size collar he wears, but He can name every man in every club of both major leagues, tell the age of each, give the complete table of bat- ting records offhand and recite, item by item, every feature of every game played on the home grounds during the last five years. That is why baseball is our national game. We love the game not because we are Chicagoans and the Chicago nlne wins nor be- cause we are Pittsburgers and the Pittsburg niue is winning, but because we are educated in baseball and llke to see a good game played by the best "l men in their field that can be found in the Rented Wedding Cakes, There was something wrong with the cake,” the baker said. It looKed all right, and it smelled all right, but his artistic sense told him it would not taste all right. “Then fix it up with an extra coat of icing and we will keep it for a renter,” said the proprietor. “Who in the world would rent a cake?’ some one asked, “Wedding parties,” said he. “They want a big cake in the center of the table for show, but a cake of that size good enough for a wedding would cost more than they can afford to pay, so they order fine cake put up in individ- ual boxes for the guests and use the bride’s cake just as an ornament. They don’t buy it; they reut it. Sometimes a cike is rented a dozen different times. After each wedding it is fresh ened up with a new coat of icing and looks as good as new for the next oc- caston. A good renter fetches about $3 a wedding.”—New York Press. Sarcastic Cabby, A certain nobleman, who may be called Lord X., bhears the reputation of being somewhat stingy in ‘money matters. On a wet afternoou he hired n cab to take him to Victoria station Arrived at the station, he handed the cabman a shilling and of course was met by the inevitable demand for an extra sixpence. “Certainly not,” said the other promptly. “You came the longest way as an excuse to extort money. Why dido’t you go through St. Jaies' park?” The cabman saw he had uo chance and said sneevingly: “Cos St. James’ That's why “Nousense.” said the other sternly. “It’s right. though,” was the grave reply. “They say that Lord X. dropped a shilling coming across the park last evening, and the gates are closed until they hnd it."—London Tit-Bits. park is closed Shut Her Up.

There 1s no court in Europe more tenacious of its etiquette—which was inaugurated several hundreds of years ago—than that of Spain. It is said that King Ferdinand VII. once made a minister resign because he'had ac- cidentally touched his band. One of the quaintest ceremonies is the closing’ of the royal palace gates at Madrid every night. Electric light has been in use in the palace for quite a long while, but nevertheless every evening at 11 o'clock the officiating gentleman In waiting appears, accompanied by several servants, who carry ancient lanterns, to demand a huge key from' a higher official to lock the doors of the palace. This is all the more amus- ing as the huge key does not fit the modern keyholes. The key is then re- turned to a third official, and every night gentlemen in waiting have to patrol the corridors of the palace, though sufficient guards are about, to watch over the slumbers of their Toyal master. Paiil the Tyrant. Paul 1. of Russia was very deaf and also very tyrannical. One day an-aid- de-camp, intending to please him, ap- proached and cried in his ear, “I am glad to see, your majesty, that your hearing is much improved!” “What is that you say?’ growled the czar. Raising his voice, the aid-de-camp said, “I am glad that your majesty’'s hearing is so much improved!” “Ah, that's it, eh?” chuckled the czar and then added, “Say it once more.” The aid-de-camp repeated the words, whereupon Paul I. thundered: you dare to make fun of me, do you? Just wait awhile.” Next day the aid-decamp was on his way to the mines of Siberia. The Major's Tip. When Major Banks was the best known figure around ‘the race tracks of Cincinnati and the middle west he ‘was extremely generous in tippivrg off his friends to ‘sure winners.” One man who enjoyed his ‘confidence and played.the horses according to the ma- Jor’s advice lost all his ready money and finally succeeded in reducing him- self to the point where he had to sell out his grocery business. One afternoon, following the placing of his last ten dollar note as the major advised, he caught Banks by the arm’ and said tragically: “Major, you've made me lose my last cent. I'm'a pauper, and"my. wife and family are practically starving. I am now about to go down to the river and drown myself. It's all over for me.” “All right,” answered Banks, “but in the event you change your mind meet me here at 3 o'clock tomorrow after- noon. I tMnk T’ ll hna Somiething good " Kongo Ts ttooing.

TELLS OF NEEDED CHANGES Says’Americans ‘Are Patriotic, but an Unorganizéd ‘Force of Fighting Men Is ‘of Little Value—Endorses the Hobson Bill' Providing for a° Mili- tary Council of Defense as a Step In the Right Direction. Washington, Dec. 28.—That the United States is not prepared “for real hostilities with a first class nation” is the testimony. of Major General Leon- ard Wood, chiéf of staff of the army, before the house committee on mili tary affairs. General Wood appeared during con- sideration of the army appropriation bill. He explained his plan for re- habilitation of the army militia. “There is no use talking about our patriotism ‘and about our fighting qual- itles,” he said. “We have got them, but we must remember that this cap- ital was lost to a force less than that opposing it; it was abandoned by our forces, with the loss of less than 100 killed and wounded and that our forces were composed of men living and fighting within a generation prac- tically of the Revolutionary war and that they were brave troops, as was sliown elsewhere, but they were unor- ganized troops. “In the Spanish war we lost a little over 200 men from the volunteers killéd in battle. We buried something Hke 4,000 who died of disease.” No Field Artillery. Regarding ‘the artillery he said: “It we were called to -arms tomor- row we are without fleld-artillery and without field artillery ammunition. The subject is of tremendous impor- tance. Sea coast fortifications, unless we ‘have a reasonably mobile force, are practically useless because you can walk around and get behind them. You hdve to have a mobile force near them to prevent the position they cov- er from being turne General Wood heartily endorsed the Hobson bill, providing for a military council of ‘defense and declared that some such system was necessary. “At the present time we are abso- lutely in the air,” he said. “I belleve ‘we should strip off all the unnecessary things and come right down to men, gune, powder and shot.” The Old Fashioned Woman. “What caused your sudden blowing in?” asked a veteran in Shade Land of a woman who just arrived.
