HITCH ON THE SCHEDULE.
The List of Western Games Is Not Yet
Ready.
SUNDAY GAMES DISCUSSED,
And the Conclusion Reached to Have
No Sabbath Contests at Sioux
City.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe
SIOUX City, To-, March 14.-The
schedule of games for the Western
Base Ball association is not yet COM
plete. A committee of managers of the
various clubs met at 10 o'clock this
morning and put in the time until noon
deciding whether the season should
consist of 1913 or 112 games. When the
noon adjournment was reached this
point had not been decided. At 2
o'clock the committee again met, and
by unanimous vote decided to play 126
schedule that had been prepared in adj
vance by Secretary Morton was SUBJ
mitted, and the Sioux City representa-
tiveS at once objected to Sunday games
here. because of the decided sentiment
against it and fears that legal measures
would be taken to suppress Sunday
games. A new schedule leaving out
Sunday games was demanded and
strongly opposed, but it was finally
decided to make the change. This work
proceeded very slowly, combination after
combination being tried, but without
avail. not even jump by locals from
home to Milwaukee helping matters out.
Finally, after going through the first
month the matter was dropped and
new schedule committee, consisting of
Morton, Rowe and Lord was appointed
and an adjournment till 10 o'clock to-
morrow taken. In the meantime the
new committee is hard at work on the
new schedule. but it will probably be
necessary to play some Sunday games
here. 1t is hoped to complete the work
tomorrow. Those present at the meet
ing, in addition to local representatives,
are S. G. Morton. Minneapolis; G. NJ.
Lord, st. Joe; ]. S. Barnes and A. NJ.

middle of the evening the stream Of
late arrivals met that of early depart
ures. the crowd ON that staircase was
something fearful to contemplate.
Neither had adequate arrangements
been made for taking care of the wraps,
and the court yard was strewn
thickly, at the close of the ball,
with opera cloaks and shawlS and over
coats of all styles and dimensions. And
worst of all, the floor of the great Galerie
DIES Glaces, where the dancing took
place, was not strong enough to sustain
10000 guests and threatened to fall in
during the entire evening. II never
drew an easy breath till the last guest
had departed" remarked the director of
the palace to friend of mine after
wards. Had such catastrophe taken
place the Prince and Princess of Wales,
the Crown Princess of Denmark and
various other royal perSOnages would
have met their doom in that sinister
abode of royalty.
TT MUST DE STATED
to the credit of Nine. de MacMahon
that, though she impelled her husband
to his Inflated resistance to the Repub-
lican majOritieS of France, she was the
first to advise him to retire from his I'M
tenable position. But the good-hearted,
wrong-headed. stubborn old soldier
having gotten himself into pickle.
resolutely insisted upon remaining in
it. IA republic without any Republi-
cans-Such is my Dream" he was wont
to say, and now that the whole affair is
over and he is definitely withdrawn to
the shades of private life, he is honored
by his cOuntrymen for his integrity and
StraightfOrwardness.
Nine. Grevy never was popular as the
lady of the Elysee. 1t must be con-
feSSed that she was in very bad style.
She did her best to fill the position ac-
ceptably, but she was plain and thin,
and was totally lacking in distinction.
1t is not exactly known who and what
her parents really were, but the highest
station accorded to her by public
report was that of a tanners daugh-
ter. There was, indeed, rumOr
afloat to the effect that she was
M. Grevy's cook before she became his
wife, but that, l think. was an exag-
geration. The chief trouble about the
daughter socially speaking, was, that
they we're excessively penurious, and
the elegance of the Elysee totally de-
parted in consequence under the
Grevy regime. The grand balls at the
palace and the presidential loge at the
opera were crowded with very dreadful
old women with the garb and manners
of cOncierges.
Under the rule of President Carnot
and his handsome wife much of the best
prestige of the official entertainments
of the ruler of the republic has been
revived. Nine Carnot is lady by birth
and breeding, as well as graceful, ele-
CANT woman. She receives well
and dresses superbly, and the
presidential family give largely
and interest themselves greatly in
all charitable enterprises. But in
one respect they lacked the hospitality
of their predecessors. No invitations
are accorded to the foreign embassies
for the strangers who may chance to be
in Paris. The Carnots very unwisely,
l think, in view of the vast sums of
money annually spent in Paris by the
Americans alone) do not entertain for
eigners. LUCY ii. HOOPER.

Special Letter to the Globe
comes to mind, "When the spring time
comes. gentle Anna," with more force
than usual just now, as the first days of
the month were so very warm and bright
with the sunshine as of springtime,
when one might get out into
the open air of heaven and enjoy the
hfe-giving sun rays after a winter of
.'shut-in-the-house" life, which is so
wearisome to many people-more par
ticularly to those who are growing old
in years, when winters are hard to
bear, because they cannot go out
as in the years that have passed
away and left their impression
Of the cold without, which brings a
SILVER with the thought of going abroad
at present. The snow has disappeared,
and the reign of ''slush' prevails at
the flower garden just now. The cata-
iogues are advertised as ready for deliv-
cry. which only adds to ones misery as
we go over the many improved old-time
flowers or the discovery of something
new in the floral line to tempt the lover
of the beautiful flowers into purchasing
some of the seeds or the plants that will
make the home or the grounds about
the house we inhabit more pleasant
and inviting in aspect during the sum-
mer or in the winter, which is sure to
come along before it's wanted. Now is
a good time to make preparations for
another long winter if one wants plants
that will give flowers without ceasing
from fall until spring. The most salts
factory for this purpose is the primula
sinensis, usually called the "Chinese
primrose" The seed is for sale by nearly
or quite all seedsmen that deal in flower
seeds. No matter where they are 10
Gated, these seeds can be obtained of
them, and should be purchased and
sown early to have them bloom in the
early winter and get the most out of
them when they come into bloom.
These plants require light soil, and
will bear less than too much water at
any time; il so fill an old pan OF anything

HOW IT FEELS TO BE EATEN.
Three Eminent Men Have AS
serted That 1t Is Not Painful.

ScFCcu IndC IL rs NOC fa1nIu1.
Manchester Courier.
Sir Lyon Playfair recently related
that he knew three men who escaped
with their lives after being partially de-
vOured by wild beasts. The first was
Livingstone, the great African traveller,
who was knocked ON his back by a
lion, which began to MUNICH his arm.
He asserted that he felt no fear
or pam, and that his only feeling
was one of intense curiosity as to which
part of his body the lion would take
next. The next was Rustem Pasha, now
Turkish ambassador in London. A bear
attacked him and tore Off part of his
hand and part of his arm and shoulder.
He also said that he had neither sense
OF pain nor of fear, but that he felt eX-
eesslvely angry because the bear grunted
with so much satisfaction in munching
him.
The third case is that of Sir Edward
Bradford, an Indian officer, now occu-
plying high position in the Indian
office. He was seized in a solitary
place by tiger, which held him firmly
behind his shoulders with one paw. and
then deliberately devoured the whole of
his arm, beginning at the end and end
ing at the shoulder. He was very posi-
tive that he had no sensation of fear,
and thinks that he felt little pain
when the fangs went through his hand,
but is certain that he felt none during
the munching of his arm.

but the question stuck in his throat, and
this is how she engendered caloric
enough to make him pop it. He brought
jeweled garter to her as birthday
gift. Deeply sentimental fellows do
that, Notwithstanding that stocking

times do wear them for

took it. Then he lifted it to his lips in
a burst of boIdness, and said: "You will

"Yes."

GuernSeVS.

We are asked about the merits of the
Guernseys, says the Western Rural.
They are good breed. They come from
the island of Guernsey. They are
larger than the Jerseys; are very quiet.
hardy, good feeders, and pay well for
what they consume. One of their admir-
ers declares they can rough it and
'hustle'' like scrub. but to better pur-
pose, having an unimpaired digestion.
They can stand cold, if necessary, or
heat if so circumstanced. Testimony
from Guernsey herds in Georgia and
the Carolinas, on the Atlantic seaboard,
on the Pacific coast. or in the cold
Northwest, is unanimously in favor of
hardness of this race. Some of the
most celebrated Guernseys inhabit the
bleak Berkshire hills, and others are
coddled in warm farms in temperate
