THE BEE: O THURSDAY, D WARD COMMANDS FOUR VOTES | Heydler Has Three, with Robison of St. Louis Still Undecided. DEADIOCK 1S 1IN PROSPECT| National League Directors Did Not N Fintsh Routine Matters and Blec- tion Went Over Until Today— | Hanlon is Dark Horse, | NEW YORK, Dec. 15.~Routine matters alone were disposed of by the board of di- | rectors of the Natlonal league of Profes slonal Base Ball clubs, which convencd here Tuesday, consequently the all important question of electing a president will not be taken up until tomorrow. The situation is apparently deadlocked, with Tohn M | Ward cbmmanding the votes of the New | York, Brooklyn, Chicago and Philadelphia clubs, and J. A. Heydler, the present pres- 1dent, sure of the support of the Cincinnaty, | Pittsburg and Boston clubs. Stanley Rob- | 1son of Bt. Louls holds the other vote, but he has not yet declded to who to vote for Base ball men now on the ground believe that the Natlonal league magnates, It Heydler and Ward each have four votes, will look around for a comnpromise candi date and that the man who has the best chance in this contingency is Ned Hanlon, former owner of the Baltimore O'Brien Not Candidate, Joseph D. O'Brien, president of the Amer- fcan assoclation, who hds been mentioned | as one of the dark horses, sald today he wi not interested in the National league presidential situation in any way. “I am a candidate for re-election in the American assoclation,” sald O'Brien, “‘and not look. ing for promotion.” The national commission will hold an- other meeting tomorrow morning, at which it will be possible to re-opon the case of the attempt to bribe the umpires in the ply off game In October, 1908, between New York ana Chicago. No important trades hetween major league clubs have as yet been negotlated but there will be a lot before the meot ing ends. It seems to be an that the New York American will get Catcher Criger from St. Louls and that Norman Elbertield, the Now York Ameri can's shortstop, will be sold to Washing. ton. Minor league managers have not as yet succeeded In geiting any material from the major league clubs, hut they hope to shortly.

The | directors, who concluded their delibera- | tiors today, dismissed the charges that the New York team had maintained a bureau to disclose the signals and’ signs used by opposing teams. In dismlissing the charges, however, the board resolved that any manager or officlal found Fuilty of operating & sign tipping bureau shall be barred from base ball for all time. This motion was carried unanimously. The Natlonal league directors did not get through with their work and will have to bave another session.

One can't stretch fingers into such shape, but one can hold the fingers In position 80 they seem longer than they are. This is done simply by bending the fingers from the palm knuckles in- stead of, as 1s common, from the mid- dle joint. To make the break In line in the middle is to foreshorten, and a stubby aspect cannot fall to result. So important Is the correct use of the joints for one who would have her hands attractive that I consider these exercises worth practicing: Par- tially close the hands by bending the palm joints, the little and next finger belng slightly closer to the palm than are the next two. This will make the hand appear slender by causing the width to be slightly concealed. The last two fingers are not really to be bent; it Is more exact to say that they droop a littlg, the smallest one Just a trifle more than the nest The middle and forefinger are not allowed to stick out. They, too, have a slight droop, but so little s it that only the fact they are not stiff at- tracts attention. The thumb must be straightened and pushed up from the bottom joint, causing it to appear ap- preciably longer.

It is Better to run one burner than to turn too low, as they frequently blow out Knowing how to arrange cooking probably the best way to reduce bills.
