HIS Letter of Introducti0.

One day tall, gaunt stranger from
Arkansas cornered Opie Read at the
Press club. He began fishing about in
his pockets.
"Got letter of introduction to you
hyarabout some'ere. he said
Had the darndest time findin you, I"
he continued. "Got into town yester-
day afternoon, and last night i started
out to look you up. | thought probably
the folks at the telegraph office would
know you, but they didn't. And the
hotel folks didn't know you nuther
Then | went to a newspaper shop and
they sent me over here.
By this time the visitor had found
the missing letter Of introduction. 1t
was written with lead pencil in q
schoolboy's hand and the spelling was
decidedly phonetic. Opie scrutinized the
signature closely.
"John Scruggins, he said musingly,
"John Scruggins. l don't recall Mr..
Scruggins. F."
"That's my boy" said the visitor
proudly. Hes been to school in Little
Rock all winter, and so when l got
ready awhile ago to come to Chicago
told him TO write me letter of intr'-
duction to you, and he did it. What's
the matter with the letter? Amt it writ
all right?"
"Oh, yes, it's all right" said the
novelist.
And it was. for the man from Arkan-
sas spent pleasant afternoon at the
club. -Cbicago Times Herald.

The days of the crack base ball
twirlers are numbered, and that i'm
portant factor of a club will soon be
relegated to history. According to
the Scientific American Prof. G. H..
Hinton has patented a mechanical
base ball pitcher which answers all
the purposes of a human pitcher. The
ball is shot out of gun made for
that purpose and can be made to take
any curve desired. If this should
come into practical use the loss of a
game would have to be shouldered on
some one else beside the pitcher and
ought to be great relief to them.

wise:

Minnesota has over 445 creameries
and some 81 skimming stations. The
product of last year amounted to
100000 pounds of butter, that

brought to a uniform grade, the state
would reap greatly increased value
from it, But the step that has been
taken in the improvement fAom the
dairy product to this is of vast value
to the farmers of the state, but it rep

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
Turkey Decides That 1t is Impossible
for Her to Evacuate Thessaly.

LONDON, June 10-The Constanti-
nople correspondent of the Standard
says:
AT Tuesdays conference of the EN-
bassadors for the decision of the terms
of peace Tewfik Pasha was present,
armed with categorical instructions to
persist in the retention of Thessaly,
given him by the Sultan personally.
When the conference ended the Sultan
summoned his Ministers to a special
council at the Yildiz Kiosk, which sat
until o'clock in the morning of We'd
nesday. The decision arrived at was
that the evacuation of Thessaly was.
impossible, but there was no necessity
to precipitate action. Being in pos
session. the Porte, it was urged, was
able to wait patiently and even indefi-
nitely while discussing point after point
with the Powers. 1t was also decided
to continue actively the preparations
of war;
LONDON, June 10-The correspond
ent of the Daily Mall at Athens says:
Extraordinary rumors are current as to
the attitude of Germany. It is alleged
that the German Government seeks to
overthrow the Greek dynasty and to es
tablish a rigorous control of Greek
finances In order to attain this double
object, Germany wants a continuance
of the war and to have the terms of
peace finally dictated at Athens itself.
The settlements seem scarcely worthy
of credence but it is probable that Ger
many will continue to press for finan-
cial control.
