T. Is H. the Swiss that we owe our
tbanks for the musical box, medley
Of sweet sounds that came into fashion
long years ago.
Al that time it was a long, narrow,
ugly-Ioo1ing affair in walnut without
vestiea of ornamantation, with but
limited number Of tunes and OF a price
eNorbitantIy high.
Now. like everything else. this de-
Iightful instrument has fallen into line
with decoration, SO that new creation
has superseded the old. with variety
of surprising effects as cases, improve
menJs made in its machinery, such as
the harp, either and safety check, CIV
ing as tunes ali the popular music OF
the day. selections from the principal
A0peras. ballads, hymns, all ideal IN
1heir way.
Among the peculiar attractions OIL
fered TO the public there is a small re-
ception chair in gilt. furnished in a
pretty scheme Of rose satin. You sit
down. and presently are entertained by
soft. low music, which seems to be
near Vet you cannot tell where. III
naIly the discovery is made. for under
meath your seat is gOOd-sized musical
box which plays some two or three
tunes. requiring a winding up only once
every half hour.
Another pretty affair is a rosewood
work box in table form. with all the
sewing paraphernalia SO comfortable 10
women Al one side is a delicately
carved square receptacle, for the hold
ing Of linens and silks. By reaching
your hand under this small top the key
is turned and the popular air Of the
season bursts forth in all its touch and
go charm.
As q gift for father, brother or hus-
band. there is d smoker-a smoker in
polished oak which is undeniably a find.

ter attraction generous sized cigar
box for the holding IF pipes, and the

part. the key is fitted and an aria from
Carmen charms your ear And you

and vile cigars such a melody should
come.

Queer wheelmen Athletes.

Queer wheelmen Athletes.
The two basketball leagues have fur
nished a number of surprises this sea-
son and aside from the general interest
in the sport the development of new
teams and their advancement have been
the topic of much discussion.
One of the greatest surprises has been
furnished in the rapid rise in the cham
pionship race in the old District. League
o. the Queer Wheelmen team. This Is
only its second season in the game and
from the very obscure position of a tie for
last place in the last years race it has
this season risen to the prominence of
third place team and very hopeful of
something better. All this splendid show
ing is owing in Il large degree to the
energetic hustlng and careful manage
ment of Ed. Neumeyer. jr., who has the
team in charge this season. 1t put up
a remarkably fine game with the Eas-
terms on Wednesday, and the defeat was
no disgrace to the Wheelmen.
The accompanying is Il picture of the
team which includes the following play
ers: James V Tierney is the captain and
is well known as one of the best and
cleanest players in the League. He plays
equally we'll as forward" or as 4
back" or at center which position he
now fills with great satisfaction TO the
management. He is quick to tap the ball
and is a sure catch of a pass and his
general work has helped the team mate
rally. Hopkins Burgess, left center. is
one of the fastest players in the League

ROOF FELL IN.
Man Had Fortune in His Hill, But
Didn't Take 1t.

A farmer in Kentucky had a six foot
vein of coal cropping out of hill on
his farm and used to take out a little for
his own use, but when he tunneled in
short ways it caved and he abandoned
it because the roof wouldn't stay up"
The man who bought the farm, cleaned
out the mouth of the tunnel, put strong
timbers in so that the roof remained in
place and he took out over 5000, 900 worth
OF coal.
The first owner had a good and valu-
able thing in his hand but failed to ge.
the good because of his inattentiOn and
lack of application. The good things of
this world come to those who use their
reason and common sense to develop
what they have. Many a man who needs
the strong nourishment contained in
Postum Food Coffee. has been driven
from it because the Postum was served
weak and unpalatable and he quickly
concluded ii was the fault of the Postum.

er on the team and one of the youngest
in the League. He is new in the game
but bids fair to equal the best. His
speciality is goal throwing and his one
hand overthrows have been features of
several games.
Michael Buckley is another fast and
strong player who is one of the main
stays of the team. He is a cool player
and good goal thrower.
Schwinghammer the left back. is one
of the best backs in the League His
speciality is blocking and few players of
rival teams have scored against him.
Egbert Pitkin is another very popular
and very excellent player. lie has few
equals playing at home goal and is par
ticularIy strong at defensive work
Won Boeckman is one of the best all
round athletes and probably the
strongest amateur in the CITY. His
many remarkable feats of strength are
wen known to club members everywhere.
II is hardly necessary to say that he is
one of the best right backs in the city.
His clean playing is a feature of every
game.
Albert Becker is a nervy little player.
He is expert at goal throwing and is a
fast clean player. /. Slack and J. Buck
ley are the two clever substitutes of the

Light Infantry Athletes.
All interest in athletics among the
[ Light Infantry members is centered in
the game to be played by the Infantry
and Eastern Athletic teams on next
Wednesday. This game will decide the
league championship, the winner OF which
will become the owner of the beautiful
silver loving cup presented by the local
Eclipse bicycle management through
Mr.. j. d. Ladsley. The Infantry has not
been beaten in a League game in four
years. and hopes again to land the
championship If it wins again the cup
will be presented to it at big smoker to
be given at an early date.
In the coming game the Infantry will
be somewhat handicapped by the abseuc ,
of two of the best players. Ernest
Schafhirt. who has left the city for =
month. and Chapman, who has gone to
Philadelphia to accept Il position. The
( corps regrets very much to lose these
! two very popular members, both of whom
