GIRL IN The MOON

She's charming.
A real little beauty.
In fact as pretty as picture-and
prettier.
The Girl In the Moon!
Have you seen her? The chances are
you haven't. Who discovered
her no one knows. Whether
some acute scientist, who, resting.
his eyes for moment from long searching
into the starry depths, suddenly tumbIed
upon the developing profile Of the dainty
face In the moon--whether some ordinary
chap, who, gazing dreamily at the blank,
unintelligent countenance of the Man in
the Moon, caught a sudden glimpse of the
bewitching little Girl in the Moon and
then tried again until he had caught her
and held her long enough TO tell where
she was.
At any rate the acquaintance of the
Girl In the Moon isn't widespread.
Indeed, it is a privilege to see her. Not
that she isn't there all the time, because
she is. Only il is a bit difficult to catch
her and sometimes hard TO hold her after
you have caught her.
That's the way with all things that are
worth having.
And after you have discovered her you
will have no further use for the Man in
the Moon. He won't be in it.
Where is she?
Well, 1t is pretty hard to describe her
exact location. THE NEWS artist was out
looking for her last night with view to
making a sketch OF her but he couldn't
discover even the tip Of her little nose.
She is on the left hand side OF the moon
as you face it. Her pretty features
are cut out like cameo. The features
are all fine - small nose, betwitching
mouth and catchy chin. 1t is a piquant,
round little face, and the hair is in a
heavy mass over her low forehead.
The Girl in the Moon is fascinating, but
she is fieeting. She Is best seen before
the moon gets too high in the heavens.
She is worth catching and holding.
After you have seen her yon will want to
see her again. She is enhancing. Judg-
ing from her face she can't be more than
seventeen years of age.

BASEBALL ROW
Over Scrantons Joining the Eastern
League to Be Settled Today.


NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-A meeting OF the
board OF arbitration OF the National Base
ball League was held in tho Fifth
Avenue Hotel this morning TO consider
the charges brought by the Pennsylvania
State league against its sister organization,
the Eastern league. The duty of settling
the squabbles OF the minor organizations
devolved on President "Nick" Young,
Mr. soden of Boston, and Mr.. Byrne OF
Brooklyn.
The charges on which these men were
to sit in judgment were made by Presi-
dent Diddlebock OF the Pennsylvania
State League against President "Pat"
Powers OF the Eastern League.
Mr.. Diddiebock alleges and does SO In
formidable documents that Mr.. Powers
by cajoling and coercing induced the
Scranton Club to leave the Pennsylvania
state League and enter the Eastern
League.
The action of Powers, il was charged,
was in violation of the rules OF the ma
tional agreement, and caused the dis
ruption OF the Pennsylvania State
League. Since these charges were
filed with the natianal board "King"
Kelly OF the Allentowns has jumped
from the Pennsylvania into the Eastern
League. The board went into session
about II O'Clock.
President Powers when seen said he had
no doubt but that the decision would be
in his favor.

THE POWER OF THE HUMAN EYE.
It Subdued Cast Iron Bulldog, but Not
the Man Who Owned Him.

the Man Who owned Him.
A family druggist In North Chicago hap
pcned TO look up from the tub of fruit
sirup he was compounding and was as
tonished to see the shattered wreck Of a
man enter and throw itself upon chair.
The wreck was in an awful condition,
bleeding, like Colonel Marco Bozarris, at
every vein.
"what in the name Of Sir Walter Scott
has happened to your" cried the druggist.
Pour few quarts of arnH,a on me-,
responded the wreck wearily "and I'll
tell you"
The druggist stitched him up and soaked
him in healing fluids and listened for the
story.
Il live on Clifton avenue" said the
wreck. Il have lately been reading up
on lion tanners, and came TO the conclu-
sion that the human eye would subdue
any beast that walks. tried 10 on all the
animals in the neighborhood, and IL seemed
TO work all right. For two or three weeks
/ went around subduing things with my
eye. Then got into an argument with
neighbor on the question. He held that n
really fierce animal didn't care red cent
for the human eye. l offered TO bet $40
that he couldn't produce an animal that
couldn't conquer by looking at. "
Il can guess the rest" said the drug
gist "He trotted out a big mastiif with
mouth as large as the arctic regions, and
you tried TO subdue IL, and 1t wouldn't
subduc TO amount to anything, and In tho
really grand symposium that followed
the dog tried 10 make a record Mt plain and
fancy chewing and succeeded"
"That sounds reasonable enough, re-
piled the wreck wearily, but It wasn't
the way it happened My neighbor took
me into strange yard by moonlight and
asked me To hypnotize big sorrel bulldog
that was sitting ON the porch. Several
strangers wero there 10 see the experiment,
and went to work. 1 stared into the orbs
OF that beast for IL minutes, ana it didn't
seem To move muscle. Then, TO show
that IL was thoroughly subdued, I went up
and placed my hand ON Its head. 1t was
cast iron bulldog and was subducd when
~ first came from the foundry. While the
spectators were laughing I sailed into my
ncighbor. determined To whip him all
round the block and up and down an
alley, and you see the result. 1wish that

ONLY PART ARE RUNNING.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 20.-AE the
mill in town that were run
ming last week started up
this morning in spite OF the vote
of the weavers' association to take a
vacation, but according to the
reports received only about thirty per
cent. of the looms in the city are running.
There are about sixty thousand looms In
all over 1900 are reported running.
1t is the general belief here that the
weavers vacation will become general and
abe mills will be forced to shut down or
that the vacation will end within week.

CARED FOR BABIES.
Little Ones Boarded Who Have No
Homes of Their Own.

Josephine Agnes Anderson, James
Francis De Mars, Christopher McCorliss,
Hilda Munsey, and Ernest Bernard are
the names of four babies cared for by an
elderly colored woman named Susan j.
Noyes, who lives at the corner of Wey hos
set and Winslow streets. The woman
says she does not run "baby farm" but
simply cares for the babies out OF kind
ness OF heart. She knows positively that
two Of the babies are legitimate children.
Whether the other two are or not she
does not know, for when babies are
brought to her she asks no questions.
All the babies except the Bernard boy are
white.
A NEWS reporter called upon tho Noyes
woman this afternoon and found her in
the midst of her adopted family. He was
properly introduced to each baby. jose
phine Agnes Anderson was footing toy
horn, James Francis De Mars was pull
ing away at nursery bottle, the rest were
kicking up their heels and having gen.
eral good time.
The reporter was informed that $1.50
per week was paid for caring for Jose
phine, 81 for keeping Christopher, the
same for the care of Hilda, and either 81
or si.50 per week for the care Of
the De Mars baby, as much as the
friends of the boy could afford
to pay. The boys, father who
it was said, some time ago, mortgaged
furniture bought on the credit plan and
was obliged to fee to escape being held to
account for his act.
The woman who acted as Godmother to
to Christopher pays his board. II was
not stated who the woman was. Appar-
ontly nothing was known about the
other babies.

NO CUTS YET.


LOWELL, Aug. 20.-Inquiry at the Offices
OF the various mills this forenoon by a
representative OF The Associated Press
disclosed that for the present no attempt
will be made by the manufacturers to cut
wages. The agents admitted they were
watching the outcome OF the New Bedford
strike and would be governed largely by
the result.
This means that should the manufac-
turers in New Bedford succeed in their
efforts to enforce a cut down the agents
here will inaugLrate q similar cut. III the
strikers win the probabilities are that
for the present no effort will be made to
reduce wages.

FOR AND

A funny incident occurred the other day
on Dunmore suburban street car which
caused ripple Of fun and clearly fore
shadowed the coming woman. A bright
manly looking miss hailing it sprang on.
The jaunty hat, immaculate shirt front,
the perfect four-in-hand tie, completed u
most striking tout ensemble. And the
pulled down vest was, as the boys say,
'out of sight, There was plenty OF
standing room inside the car. There were
the usual number Of tired looking men
sitting side ways with faces buried in tho
evening paper, and the same sprinkling OF
callow youth gazing into yacuity. The
lonely strap hung invitingly. The bright
miss looking in, took in the situation, and
coolly planted her natty body firmly
against the door jam on the platform. The

One Magnificent Investment.

The next two months will be months

1t requires the utmost care and many
facilities to successfully bring the wee
ones through this heated term. Many
mothers, oppressed by poverty and the
cares Of large household, are unable
to give to their infants the indefatiga.
BILE nursing that is necessary to their
preservation. Even where some
mothers have the time to watch over
their babes, financial considerations
prevent the giving Of needed atten-
tions, such, for instance. as trip to
the country and sojourn out in the
fresh air.
This, however. Ia an opportune time
for charitably inclined Scrantonians to
remember those local agencies which
supply facilities for the proper nurture
of infants and which make a speciality
of providing free summer homes for
the little children of the poor. There
are a number OF these benefcent agen-
cies in successful operation among us.
One, the ST. Stephens summer home
at Dalton. is familiar through its ad-
mirable ministrations that have re-
suited in untold good. Before going
away on his annual outing the well-tO-
do Scrantonian ought to write out a
nice check and mail it to the treasurer
of the Dalton home fund; or, better
still. he ought to write out number Of
checks and mail one to each of the
treasurers of these various local insti-
tutions of summer relief, all of which
are pursuing a noble work
