Hal Chase’s resignation as manager of the Yankees was due, in part, to a bit of advice given to him last season by Napoleon Lajole, erstwhile pilot of the Cleveland team. It was during a game at New York, and Hal passed Larry while the Naps and Yanks were changing fields. “This managing job,” observed| Chase, “is a tough one.” H Things weren't going well with the New York team that day and the big left-hander had a grouch. “I know it,” replied Larry, “but I didn't know it for three years. I was manager for four years, and I am sat- isfied that a man can't play his best game and manage t00.” | Advocate of College Boxing. | Properly restricted and safeguarded | boxing might prove an acceptable form of intercollegiate sport, in the opinion of Dr. Willlam G.

In those days the team had a lot of smart pitchers, men who did things, and who used their heads all the time. Every time I saw one of them pull off something I made a sneak over toward the club house and tried it myself to see whether or not I could do it. I worked as hard in those days as ever a man worked in a mine or a mill. I was determined I was going to be a pitcher. Comiskey and Jones both coached me, told me what to do and how to do it, but they could not make me a pitcher.

The management of the Cincinnatl; baseball team has always been noted ' for allowing star players to get away and become most valuable members of other teams in the same circuit. In| fact, it used to be a saying in the National league that a player never had the O. K. stamp affixed until he had been released by Cincinnati.

One of the best hunting stories of the season comes from northern Wis: consin, where a prominent resident of Phillips, accompanied by a friend, slipped out of town one evening two days in advance of the legal opening day of the season for killing deer, His object was to hunt deer at night by the air of a strong reflector dark lantern. He ‘succeeded in a way far beyond his most optimistic hopes in killing something, but his overwhelm: ing surprise on first viewing the “game” may be better imagined than written, and his language was horrid, He drove his own team of horses, valued at $600, and some distance from town he turned into ar aban doned logging road, traversing for several miles. Then he tied up the team and prowled about in the woods for half an hour with his light. Suddenly he heard a snort, and the Ught revealed a pair of glaring eyes from some animal a short distance away. In his excitement he handed the light to his friend and banged at the eyes. Down tumbled the animal, and instantly there was a commotion in the same spot, and the light re- vealed another pair of glaring eyes. The hunter quickly fired and the sec- oud animal dropped. The hunters rnshed forward with their light, and to their dismay found that both their horses were shot and killed. They had circled about and confronted the team in their ram- blings, MORE DIAMONCS IN BRAZIL Excitement Caused By New Discevery of Great Field in the State of Goyaz. Newspapers just received from Rio de Janeiro show symptoms of excite- ment over reports of the recent dis- covery of a great diamond field in the state of Goyaz, republic of Bra- zil, in a little stream called the Gar- cas, one of the minor affluents of the Araguaya, which flows north toward the Amazon, The state of Goyaz is directly- west of the state of Bahia and lies near the center of Brazil. It is a wild and thinly settled region, the scant population about the dia- mond fields being composed of In< dians. The news of this find has already, 1t is sald, brought to the diamond coun- try a thousand eager “garimpeiros” (diamond hunters). The first finds in the fleld indicate that the stream of Garcas contalns prodigious riches which may be secured without ex- treme labor. The exact location and course of this stream are scarcely known, as it appears on few maps. The states that are even within three or four hundred miles of the field are now interested In exploring their own rivers in the hope of finding like dlamond deposits. - But In Her Case— Woman’s wit readily adapts itself to all places-and all occasions. A woman lecturer was delivering & practical talk on beauty and the beauty cult for the entertainment of the Woman's Professional league of New York at an interesting session one afternoon. In the course of her. lecture the speaker emphasized the point that cer- tain measurements were fundamental. ly important. Unhappily, however, the lecturer herself had a form—If her unusual bulk could be dignified by such a term—that was fashioned on anything but the lines of the Keller- mann type. e Proceeding with her dissertation on measurements, she held up a very fat, round wrist, and sald: “Now, twice around my wrist, once around my throat. Twice around my throat, pnce around my.waist. Twice around‘\my waist—" ~ “Once around Central Park!” ex- ploded an irrepressible young thing out in the audience, and the storm of laughter that followed was altogether Immeasurable.—Sunday Magazine. Pepsin. The introduction of pepsin as.a re- medial agent effected a complete revo- lution in the method of restoring to normal the ailments which in the old days were classed in a group as dys- pepsia. If physicians were to observe anni- versaries of the discovery of remedies wkich had proved a blessing to man- kind the entire profession would unite in remembering the fiftleth anniver- sary of the first manufacture of pepsin in this country. Just half a century ago the late John Carrick, the eminent physiological chemist and the father of physiological products in the United States, made possible a new epoch in ‘American medicine by producing the first pepsin. Pepsin had been made in a small way in Europe before Mr. Carrick’s .enterprise caused it to be introduced here, as it was originally suggested by Dr. Corvisant of Paris.

For some time there has been shown in San Francisco a plece of paper 13 inches by 7% inches, on which there are written 126,000 words. This writing is the work of Kobo 1,100 years ago. Before his time his countrymen used only Chinese char- acters in writing and he evolved the Idea of the Japanese alphabet. The writing on the paper is so fine that a microscope has to be used to decipher the intricate Japanese char- acters. It is an exact copy of eight books of the Buddhist Bible, and was written by the author as a sort of Denance to purify his spirit. It is the property of a descendant of the writer, and has passed as a sacred heirloom years. Every precaution has been taken to insure the safety of the document. In a case of white wood is & beautiful laquered box wrapped in green silk. Within the laquered box is another made of a very light porous wood that is extensively used in the manufacture of cabinets in which to store treasurcs. In this box is the precious writing. Apparatus for Finding Water. The hazel twig as a water finder has | been supplanted .by a remarkable in- vention, consisting of a simple ap- paratus. The principle on which the fnstrument works is the measuring of the strength of electric currents between the earth and the atmos- phere. These are always strongest in the vicinity of subterranean water courses, the flowing waters of which are charged with electricity to a cer tain degree. The apparatus takes the form of a box-shaped instrument fixed on a tripod, with a dial on which a needle is used to indicate the pres- ence of water. If the needle remains stationary it may be taken for grant- ed that no subterranean spring . ex- ists; the spot where the greatest movement of the needle is obtained is that where well bormg operations should be made, Think Taishi, a Buddhist of Japan, who lived | from father to-son for a thousand |* language.
