A Chicago Judge, waylaid by a couple
OF footpads, proceeded to knock them
down, one after the other, as fast as they
could get up. He had revolver and was
going to shoot them. "But | thought
that would be cowsrdly trick"
he says, "and / was having too much fun
as II was" The Bench must have It's re-
taxation. 1t is toe much to expect a judge
to be dPnified and studious on all
occasions, in court and outside. 1t is
well that no meddling Chicago police
man came along to interrupt the sport
Of TINS man OF judicial mind and ready
fists by gathering in or otherwise interfer-
ing with the footpads whose operations
formed the basls OF he diverting procet d.
ings.

The late Sir Richard Owen, the emf

identifying bones tested. On one occa-
sion his friend and neighbor. Lord John
Russell. sent him a specimen for this
purpose, and the professor quickly pro-
nounced 1t the thigh bone Of pig. This
explanation OF the query was subse-
Quently offered by Lord John; "PreG-
dent Buchanan had sent from America
to the English statesman the present Of
a choice bears ham, and the family had
breakfasted OFF it several times with
much enjoyment. Somehow or other,
however, suspicion was aroused, and the
bone was sent to their scientific neigh
Dor. with the result stated."-Cor. Pail

with dampened ardor, turns away, tell

''Teddy's Tots' will endeavor to win

Teddy needs game badly He is about
run out Of excuses after having been de-
feated three straight in Charleston. It
is case of do or die with him, and his
'Totlings." Ted will be in uniform. and
do the coaching from the third base line,

''Kalmazoo 4-l1-44, - etc. Ted never gets
mixed, but his players often do, and then
1t is as good as a circus.
One thing about Ted, though He is
always in the game, and won't stand any
nonsense from his men, consequently Wis
itors at the grounds invariably see a hard
fought game from start to finish. He
has with him this season a lively promis-
ing set of youngsters, who play game,
full of animation and ginger and this is
what the average base ball admirer
wants
Sullivan says he had streak of hard
luck in Charleston, but expects
to get two games from Savannah
OF course McCloskey does not pro-
pose that he shall do so. In
fact he says he wants all three himself to
make him secure in first place. Sui
ltyan protests vigorously, and will fight
hard to prevent such an outcome. There
is no doubt that all three of the games
will be for blood Neither team can
afford to overlook single point or not
take advantage of every chance offered.
Both teams are in splendid condition,
and the games certainly will be the best
of the season, up to this time. That the
park will be crowded, goes without say
ing, because, outside of the playing ex-
pated hard fought battles, Sui
livan is popular here and always
has attracted large crowds. He is the
