NOTES—BY “WIN.” Joe Collins made his first appear- ance in the game this year and the table shows that he was very much in the game, in‘fact, Joe is playing a better and faster game than last year. ‘ Grant, the new southpaw, made his first appearance and he will do, mak- ing ten strikeouts an dholding the heavy hitters from Halliday to six hits. He has made good and has won a place in the hearts of the fans. Farmer, for the visitors, pitched a nice game, but errors back of him at critical times were disastrous. iA good deal of wranjfing was in- dulged in over decisions of the um- pires, who were very rank in a great number of the decisions given, one side getting about as much of it as the other. At the begigning of the fifth in- ning IL. Wasem, the catcher for the visitors, received a pitched ball on his ungloved hand, which split the fleshy part of his haand between the first finger and thumb, making a bad wound. At this point Ellis went in to catch and Gardner went to center field.

NOTES—BY “WIN.” It was by far the most exciting: game that has Yeen pulled off on the local diamond this year and the roar of the big ‘bunch of fans could have been heard down town if one had been listening. The grandstand and ‘bleachers were packed and cars were out around both foul lines. Goldie was certainly on the grounds with the goods and delivered them in fine shape; three hits were made off him and two of these were of the very scratchy order. Halliday could not get next to him at all and there his head was not working. His ex- hibition of pitching in this game was of the very best. Little Roth, at second, had five chances and some of them were of a two-bagger and scored Collins. -Af- ter this everything was of the one, two, three order. But one of the vis- itors reached the third station and but one reached second. They’re going to fine players’ in the American Association $25 for’ sassing umpires. But what player in the A.

Seven St. Louis Drowns are on the sick or injurey list. No wonder Fielder Jones is a perpetual grouch. Four Brickley brothers have joined the colors.

And Griff's friends say he hates to lose an argument about as much as he dylikes to drop a ball game. Washington recently lost a game to Detroit because of a close decision which gave Cobb a base on ball. O'Loughlin was the umpire.

July 23.—Fielder Jones, manager of the St. Louis Amer- icans, considers George Sisler, his youthful first ‘base star, the “perfect ball player.” “Sisler can do anything Cobb or Speaker or any’ other player can’ 6,” Jones said. “He can hit as far™as anybody, field as fast as anybody, ‘and is a dash of lightning on the ‘bases. ‘What more can you add?” They say that: Sisler is the most modest player in.either major league.

Friel was a player for this organization. Indications point to, a record entry of amateurs, profes- sionals and women shots. More than $1,400 in prizes will be awarded. The tournament will terminate on July 24, when Wisconsin amateur marksmen will compete for the posi- tion of winner or runner-up, entitling entry in the grand American handicap to be held at Chicago on Aug. 20-24. * * # Racine, Wis., July 23.—Joe Burman, the Chicago bantam, who won fame and fortune in eastern rings, made his first. appearance before his “home folks today when he met George Thompson, the Pacific coast cham- pion, in a 10-round contest.

Since his experience as an umpire, Friel said he became aware of a few things he didn’t know existed in the old days: “It’s against the rules for a baseball player to be fair with an umpire,” Friel explained. “A player doesn’t want to know that an umpire was right; he doesn’t want the public to know it either.” : “After I became manager of the Milwaukee club, a friend. wrote me, asking if | was going to jump on the umpire.

Franklin told us how to outwit the beef trust, save money, improve our health and enrich the brain all at one stroke, . As nobody else could possibly tell it so well as Ben himself, I quote him, writes Girard in tle Philadelphia Ledger. “When about sixteen years of age I happened to meet with « book, written hy one Tryon, recommending a veget- able diet. I determined to go into it. My brother, being yet unmarried, did not keep house, but boarded himself. and his apprentices in another family. “My refusing to eat flesh ocensioned an inconyenience..and I was frequently chid- for my singularity. 1 made my- self acquainted with 4"ryon's manner of prepariag: some of ‘his dishes, such as boiling: potatoes or rice, making hasty pudding.and a few others, and then proposed to my brother that if he would give me weekly half the money he paid for my board, | would bourd myself. He instantly agreed to it, nnd I presently found that I could save-half what he paid me, “This was an additional fund for the buying of books, but I had anoth- er advantage In it. I'made the greater progress from that greater clearness of head and quicker apprehension which generally attend temperance in éuting and drinking.” And he kept on thinking so clearly that he was one of the most active sreators of the constitution of the United States when he was eighty-one years old. SUPERSTITIONS OF THE MOON Luck Depends Upon Various Lunar Stages, According to Many Popular Beliefs. It Is considered unlucky to see the aew moon for the first time through glass. To see it outdoors over the eft shoulder is lucky; over the right shoulder is unlucky. Letters asking a favor should be written in the full ef the moon. Ia fact, the full of the moon is lucky for all events. A birth or marriage in a full moon is indicative of prosperity. It 's considered unlucky to have the 2yelushes cut during the wane of the noon. They will not grow well, but will grow awry and fall out. To have them grow long they should be cut while the moon is on the increase. Animals born when the moon is orescent-shaped will be weak and short- \ived; those born at the full of the moou will be strong and long-lived. Trees are thought likely to decay when cut during a waning-moon. The gacon of a hog killed in ja waning noon is also said to waste much in the cooking. “i = % OO OHT HOH SHHOOH OOD @ AMERICAN ASSOCIATION. 3% POOH TEOOH SH OOO OEE Club— Indianapolis Louisville .

How the Tornado “Works.” Pages of magazine and columns of newspaper space have been devoted to graphic and vivid, if not lurid, deserip- tions of the tornado in action, séys the Kansas City Star, But William, Soda, a farmer who never “writ” a line of literature in his life, expressed it all in a single short paragraph, in a per- fectly clear and understandable way, when he was asked by a reporter about the twister that had made a complete wreck of his home: ‘, “How long did the storm last?” “Feller,” he replied, “I don’t believe she worked more than two minutes, but while she worked she worked like the devil.” j Any American can get that without a diugram. No Hurry. The telephone bell rang with anx- fous persistence. The doctor answered; the call. “Yes?” he said. “Oh, doctor,” said a worried voice, “something seems to have happened my wife. Her mouth seems set, an she can’t say a word.” 7 “Why, she may have lockjaw,” said] the medical man. “Do you think so?
