One Curious Break That Even the Um- pires Did Not Notice. Baseball's champion foolish play was made in a game between Washington and the White Sox in 1907. In that battle Larry Schlafly was captain of the Washingtons and also played sec- ond base. At the end of an early inning Schlafly went out to telephone or buy a goat or something and was delayed so long that the Senators had three men put out before his return. The Sox came trotting in for their tirn'at bat. Washington took the fleld, with only eight men and nobody on second, and the game went on that way till Fielder Jones hit one straight- across second. Then, and not till then, was it discovered that there was no- body on second base. Incredible as it may seem, ninetéen men—seventeen players and two um- pires—had started the half inning' in this fashion and not one of them got wise till Jones’ hit shot over the empty station. Schlafly reappeared at this juncture, and the umpires decided that the hit was illegal when made with only eight men in the field. Jones had to go back and bat over.—New York Sun.

In the office of Benjamin Russell, an ardent Repub- lican editor, hung a map of the state as newly subdivided by Gerry and his men. Gilbert Stuart’s ready pencil whimsically added to the outlines of a grotesque district the wings and tail of a dragon. “Ha!” he said when he had finished. “How’s that for a salamander?” The Republican Russell growled, “Better call it a gerrymander.” And American politicians have taken his advice. Barley Water. Sometimes the doctor orders barley or oatmea] water for baby. When such is the case prepare as follows: Add two tablespoonfuls of washed pearl barley or of oatmeal, as the case may be, to a quart of cold water. Boil this down to a pint, cooking slowly for about two hours. Then strain while hot and add a sufficient quantity of cold boiled water to make a quart of the fluid. Keep cool in a covered jar. Jellyfish, The :bay of Naples abounds in me- dusae, or jellyfish, often growing as large as two feet in diameter and weighing fifty and sixty pounds. Some of them shine at night with a greenish light and are known as “noctiluca” (night lanterns) by the natives.

One a Ninth Inning Crisis, the Other a Dinner Table Climax. I heard a prominent (‘ambridge man tell of the two most tense moments of his life. But the tensicn in each case was different. “I doubt if I ever shall forget either occasion,” he said reflectively. “They were big moments. “The first was when I was in col- lege. 1 was captain of the baseball team that year. \}e came to the end¥. the ninth. We needed one run to tie the 'score and another to win the game. Two men were down and two on the sacks when I came to bat. And for once in my career I did it. I lined out a three bagger right over the railroad track. When I felt it go—well, that Wwas one oc¢casion. “And the other.” He chuckled, but \ a slow flush crept over his cheeks. “It was thirty years ago, soon after I college. I went over to see a girl thought was pretty nice and to mk\ her folks for' the first time. I went op. a Sunday. All the men were away. And they had duck for dinner.” He stopped. “Ever carve a duck?” he asked meaningly. “No, neither had I before. Nor have I since.” His flush deepened. “I never even went to see that girl again,” he added plaintively. —Boston Journal. Sure.
