MEYERS ON RUBE MARQUARD Indlan Catcher Thinks Glant South- paw Has Great Future Before Him—Has Everything. Big Chief Meyers, Indian catcher of the New York Giants, is an interest- |flelding by Ing character. Talk baseball to him and you are entertained. He studies the game. He has an opinion upon every question that arises. Talk to bim long enough and you are bound to be profited. This Indlan also has Ideas. One of his opinions is that Rube Marquard, the southpaw on the Giant squad, has the making of a great pltcher and that the day will come when the fans will applaud McGraw In advising his purchase at the tre- mendous price which was paid for him. “Marquard is destined to become. a | great pitcher,” sald Meyers. “The young southpaw has been pitching bet- ter baseball than he did last year. Even then Meyers was absolutely ce Chief Meyers. tain that Marquard would one day be & great southpaw. “The only thing that Marquard needs is age,” continued the Indian. “He i8 young. He doesn’t take bage ball serlously. Whenever he awakens to the fact that baseball is a business as well as a sport, he will become one of the greatest left-hand twirlers that the game has produced.” “Why?” the Indian was asked. “Because he has everything,” was the reply. “Marquard has wondertul curves. He has great speed. He has a change of pace. In a word, he has everything that a pitcher needs. The moment that he fully realizes that baseball is a serious proposition that moment he will begin to develop into a great twirler. This he is now beginning to realize. “Marquard today is a greater pitch- er than he was at this time last year. 1t is all because he is becoming more serious as he becomes older. His view- point is changing. A year ago base- ball wag a game, a sport, a pastime that he took pleasure in indulging in. But nothing more.” It is interesting also to talk to Mey- ers about Mathewson. Here is the one man who is the idol of this Indian backstop. If any man attempted to tell him that the game ever produced a greater twirler, then there would be an argument. The Indian is firmly convinced that the Ciants will lick the Cubs in the pennant race and that McGraw will be the manager of the Natlonal league team which fights for the world’s champlonship.

Many Ways to. Detect Staleness Be- sides Smell and Taste. It does not require a very discrim- inating palate to detect an old egg from & new one, says a correspondent of the New York Sun. The former has a musty flavor that the latter never has, and the mustiness may range from a slight taint to a very pronounced one. It is always motice- able In storage eggs. If any one wishes to verify the judg- ment of his palate, the following tests may be used: 1.—1It 1s almost imposaible to peel the shell from a fresh hard boliled egg without having some of the white come away with it 2.—A stale egg cannot be beaten to a froth. 8.—When a fresh egg is broken into a dish the yolk stands up and the white does not spread, whereas in a stale egg the yolk lles flat and the white secms watery. 4.—The shell of an egg after a cer- tain length of time loses its chalky appearance and becomes shiny. 5.—The air space in the large end of a newly lald egg is about_half an inch in diameter, and as the egg ages this space grows larger. In storage eggs 1t sometimes extends to one- fourth the length. An expert can very closely approximate the age of an egg by examining this space. This is known as candling and is done by holding the egg in a beam of light A simpler test is to hard bofl the egg and notice the relative size of the space.

A SULTAN'S SEVEN BEDS. Abdul Hamid Changed His 8leeping Place Every Night. An interesting reminiscence of Ab- dul Hamid, the former sultan of Tur- key, who was known as Abdul the Accursed and by several other more or less unpleasant titles, 18 given in the description of a visit to Yildix Kiosk by Colonel (Count) Gleichen in the: Household Brigade Magazine. “The house was a perfect labyrinth of small rooms,” he writes. “In no fewer than seven of these rooms were beds on which the sultan used to sleep—not ordinary beds, but large couches, sloping at a considerable an- gle from the head end downward, so that, covered with a quilt or two, his majesty could sleep in a semi-upright condition and spring up at a moment’s notice to be ready for anything. *“No one knew in which of the seven rooms the sultan was going to sleep, for he changed his resting place every night for fear of hidden dangers. Along the main passage which led past many of these rooms a most in- genlous arrangement existed for giv- ing warning of the approach of any one. The floor was composed of loose planks under the carpet, so that mere- ly to walk along it started a clanking sound which must invariably have waked a light and nervous sleeper.” That Yankes Dodge. The description of the first operation under ether in Europe as given by Dr. F. Wiliam Cook in the University College Hospital Magazine is repro- duced in the London Lancet, and the scene is referred to as the “most dra- matie ever enacted in which medical men grouped the stage.” The opera- tion was performed by Robert Liston on Dec. 21, 1846. *At 2:15 Liston en- ters, that magnificent figure of a man six feet two inches In height, and says, ‘We are golng to try a Yankee dodge today, gentlemen, for making men in- sensible,’ so Liston introduced ether to a London hospital” The subject was a man, thirty-six years old, whose thigh was amputated. The operation was successful, and Liston uttered the epilogue, “This Yankee dodge, gentle- men, beats mesmerism holler.” Marvels of India. What & wonderful country is India! There is only one India.
