Beeing the advertising possibilities therein the pawnbrok ter he had made the necessary repairs, placed the trophy in his window. Then he leaned Pon” against the trophy and the sign ‘This is the Trophy Won by Josh Devore of seid Giants.” A Josh came over trom Philadelphia Monday night with the rest of the Giants, dodced crowds of friends at the Braddock and went to bed early. He was in the land of dreams, knocking home runs over the Polo Grounds fence when Willie Lyons, the Harlem cut-up, happened to pass the pawnshop and no- tied a crowd at the window, Willie pushed his way through and al- most collapsed when he saw Josh Do- vore’s trophy.

The path led into dense woodland, where naughty. blackberry bushes pricked and scratched them as they passed. Sometimes, when the bushes were very thick, it would take a whole day for them to work thelr way through one clump. The squirrels found it much easter, because they did aot have to go through the oushes, they could go under them. But it was very hard for the kiddies, and when at last, after days of travel, they reached a smooth road once more both the Abate 2 and cis bedi were bly to Test. Bessie cried, too, because sne was all scratched and her little feet hurt, oh, so much! The poor little tots fell asleep while sitting on a big stone near the road and their little heads were full of pretty dreams as they nodded. Honk! honk! Toot! toot!

BRINGS A STRANGE DREAM TOCAPTAN “I've Seen Things Myself,” Said the Stevedore, “but Never Called It That.” John James Armond, captain of the British steamer Reigate, has ploughed the mysterious China Seas for ‘years, so it was only natural that he should encounter strange doings in the occult. The Reigate was docked in South Brooklyn a week ago and Capt. Ar- mond set foot on American soll tor the first time. He told this strange tale: “It was a dark and stormy night on WALL STREET Opening lower, to-day's Stock Market pursued a downward tendency that car- tied Steel, American Smelting, Copper, Union Pacific and St. Paul about i point below the final sales of yesterday.
