Hanson Denies He Signed. * Crookston, Minn., July 19.—State Senator A. L. Hanson of Ada, whose name appeared on the third party call for a state convention, says that he was surprised to see it there. He had said that if all the delegates signed the call he was willing to, and would not hold out, but that otherwis¢ he had .not authorized the use of his name. Further than this he did not care to make any comment for the present. “Cover the Lid.” In an article on baseball “fans” in the August American Magazine, Hugh S. Fullerton tells the following story: “One of the quickest things I ever heard was a remark from a Washing- ton fan which upset Frank Isbell, the veteran, completely. Isbell’s head is as bald as a concrete pavement, and usually he kept his cap plastered tightly on his head to shield himself from the gibes of crowds. This time he tried to steal second and made 2 desperate, diving slide around aad under the baseman only to be called out. He was so enraged that he ran at the umpire, grasped his arm, ar- gued and raved and finally in sheer anger, jerked off his cap, hurled it on- to the ground and jumped upon it. His bald head glistened in the sun- light and the crowd roared. Then, above the roar came a voice: “ Put on that cap. They pirched Mary Garden here for less than that.” NOTICE.

AT “LOST AND FOUND” DESK Absent-Minded Women Make Much Trouble for Clerks of Blg New York Hotels. A woman hurried up to the lost and found section of the office desk of the Waldorf-Astoria. She held up a gold- mesh handbag. “I saw § woman who had this bag in her hand sit down in the corridor,” she sald. “She got up a few minutes later and went away, leaving it. I thought she might return, so I kept my eyes on it for a while; but now I have got to go, and as she has not come back I thought I had better turn fthe bag in to you.” A few minutes later another wom- en came up to the same place and asked whether anything had been heard of a feather boa, which she was sure somebody had stolen. After a search the clerk produced the boa and she went out of the hotel. Fifteen minutes afterward a taxicab driver entered and turned in at the office a feather boa which he sald a fare from the hotel had left in the cab. To the clerk it looked familiar. He examined it carefully. It was the same boa that had been claimed only @ quarter of an hour before. Only a few minutes had passed when a third woman rushed up. She asked the clerk please to tell the hotel detectives or the police or the news~ ‘papers, or somebody, to find a valu- able fur muff which had been stolen om her. She was positive she had eft it in her room. The clerk listened pttentively to her description. Then the ducked under the counter and sol- emnly handed her the muff. “Why, where did you get this?” she lemanded. + “It was picked up in the corridor, madam,” was the reply. She signed her name in the receipt ook and then went away in the same jhaste she had come. When the clerk looked up from the book he found she had left her pocketbook on the counter.—New York Sun. Mats Made From Straw Matting. In days gone by nearly every one mused straw matting on their sleeping Toom floors, but this is the age of bare floors and mats. I have made some nice mats from some matting fthat I had once used on a floor. I se- lected the best parts and cut them in lengths varying from one yard and three-quarters to two yards. I ravelled the ends about four inches and tled them in a double knot; that keeps them from fraylng any more and makes & kind of fringe which I think s much nicer than hemmed ends. I wash mine with salt and water, which freshens them up wonderfully. These mats are especially suitable for sleep- ing rooms or for a strip for a hall They are very easy to handle they are 80 light, and they are easy to sweep. They look well on a hardwood floor. The parts of my carpet that showed slgns of wear I converted into piazza mats, so nothing was wasted. Mat- ting makes excellent doormats for the outside doorstep or outside entrance and you will be surprised how much less sand gets tracked in. Painless Disjointment. ' Me, Little, in his book on Mada~ gascar, tells an amusing story of a friend, who, on a journey from the coast to the Interlor, was much trou. bled by the curiosity of the natives. Being a fine looking man with a flow- ing beard, he excited the admiration and amazement of all. Natlves crowd. ed the doors of his hut and jostled one another to get a peek through convenient chinks, giving him all the time their opinion of his eyes, nose, and general appearance. In vain did he shut the door of his hut. They crowded back again, and at last sat down In rings outside the hut to dis- cuss his want of good manners in sending them away. At last the stranger could stand it no longer. It was a bright moonlight night. He puddenly rushed to the door of his hut, threw it open, and with a loud shout gprang toward the natives. At the same time he drew from his mouth two rows of false teeth and waved them in the air. The natives took one look at the dreadful sight, and then fled in horror from the presence of “a ‘Two wonderful pitching stars of last season are not showing the class they displayed last year. Both were first- year men in 1911, and their brilliant work was the talk of the country. One was a right-hander and the other & southpaw. The right-hander is Grover Cleveland Alexander of the Phillies, and the southpaw is Vean Gregg of the Naps. “Alex” has been having a tough time of it this year, and when he does win he needs a i Brooklyn has asked an option on ~ramer and Giddo, the crack battery of the Frankfort team of the Blue Grasa STAR PITCHERS NOT IN USUAL GOOD FORM.

Gregg has been a little more success- ful than Alexander, but he has done little better than an even break on his games so far. George Chalmers, an- other find of 1911, has also been hav- ing his troubles, though he injured his shoulder in training and never got over it. “Slim” Caldwell is the High- landers’ contribution to the list of 1911 stars who find the going hard this year. George Mullin says he is willing to work In any city but St. Louts. George can get plenty of sympathy alon those lines. if = McGraw Makes Prophecy. New York first, Pittsburgh second, and Cincinnati third—is J. McGraw's ultimate guess anent the ultimate fin- Ish. The Giant leader believes that when Adams, O'Toole, Camnitz and Hendrix hit their stride the Pirates will forge forward. as runners up in the N. L. debate. He conceded Mr. O'Day a place in the first division, but the ‘highly repugnant idea of being beaten out by an ex-umpire is no longer troubling his mid-day dreams. One Catcher for Both Teams. At Yazoo City, Miss., one catcher was behind the bat for both teams for sixteen innings in the Cotton States league between Columbus and Yazoo City. In the second inning of the first game the Columbus catcher ‘was hurt and there was no one to take his place. The Yazoo OCity catcher volunteered to keep the game going and it was so agreed-by all in author- ity. Yazoo City won both games.
