Two Very Funny Books.
BY JOSIAH ALIENS WIFE.
samantha at Saratoga

samantha at Saratoga; or Racin' After
Fashion, was written under the inspiration
of a summer season mid the world of fashion
at Saratoga, the proudest pleasure resort of
America The book takes off Follies, Flirt-
ations, Low-necked Dressing Dudes, Pug
Dogs, Tobogganing, and all the extremes Of
fashionable dissipation, in the authors in
imitable and mirth-provokng style. The
story of Samantha tower" to Saratoga, ac-
companed by her ''wayward pardner," will
make you laugh till your sides ache

''Samantha Among the

samantha Among the Brethren; or, The
Upholdin' of the Meetin' house" was written
to exhibit the comic side of the mems argu-
ment against women 'a-settin on the confer

Newman says of it, 1T is irresistably humor-

New Baseball League l. Expected 10
stir Things Up.

Chicago. sept is.-Anairs OF the neW
base ball league assumed a more serious
aspect today. with the arrival OF one
Eastern representative. Frank Hough, OF
Philadelphia.
The delegates got down to business. can
vsssed the situation. figured Up what
financial power they could command and
discussed their circuit At present the
circuit. they announce. consists Of s.
Louis. Chicago. Milwaukee. and either
Detroit or Buffalo in the West. and New
York Washington. Phiia6el phia, and eth
Ct Baltimore or Boston in the East
In St Louis tne new league promoters
have park which the Schaefers control,
ana they claim good financial backing.
In Chicago their strength s. not known,
further than that Arson is the king pin.
Buffalo and Detroit are doubtful quaint
ties, and tne league says Il Will take
Wh.e newer is the most promising in
finances and grounds.
In New York ID was broadly hinted the
new league would Play either on Man
haitian field or on a new park which they
have in sight. In Philadelphia they say
they have a park and good backing.
In Washington they say they expect 70
use the old baseball park and there, too.
they assert they nave good backing. The
fourth city IN the east Is either Boston or
Baltimore, with the probabilities Ia favor
Of the last named.
McGraw and Robinson will engineer the
new league club. If the organization de-
cldes upon Baltimore. II is said Arson
viii be the first president Of the new or
ganiZation.
Reports were current tonight that the
leaders in the new association and the Ma
tional League had proviniciaily deemed IL
best to work on q basis OF harmony in
stead Of antagonism. These reports are
strongly doubted
John #. Brush, a power in the National
League announced that he favored a mod
ihca,ion Of the draft rule-a concession to
the Western League evidently launched
with a view 20 keeping the support Of that
organization in case Of emergencies.
General admission will be placed at .
cents instead OF % cents, the latter price
prevailing in the National League.

bly, consider tina. there IS a difference
somewhere in his legs. II may be that one
leg IS longer than the other. but il is more
probable that one nip IS higher than the
other, or one leg flii%, 50 that il takes UP
the trousers more. and thus gradually
raises the bottom more. Il would be a
common thing If men were seen with
their waisrcoats OF. to md suspenders set
at uneven nights The variation in the
suspenders might be required. 10 be sure,
by difference in the shoulders, and not
in the legs.
II is common 10 find mems arms of diff
ferent lengths. The difference may be so
slight as to require no special attention in
the making Of their clothes. but it is fire.
quently necessary 10 make the coat-sleeves
Of different lengths.
The fact appears to be that there are
not many perfect men. that is, men Of per
feet harmony Of development and perfect
symmetry Of proportions. in which respect
man is like all things else in nature. ike
horses. for instance and trees: but in the
greater number of men these defects are
within such limits that they might be de-
scribed as variations. rather than as sub
stantial defects.

Too Much TO DO.
Atlanta. Sept. 1s-Gov. Gambler this af-
ternoon received an urgent telegram from
Gov. Joseph D. sayres Of Texas. who IS
in st. Louis, for him and Attorney Cen
eral Terrell to attend the antitrust con
vention. The Governor replied. however.
that IL would be impossible for either him
self or the attorney general to attend on
account of pressing official duties Cot
Terrell told Gov. Gambler he could not
possibly attend, as he had ten cases be-
fore the Supreme Court, which would re-
quire all Of his time and attention.
As he cannot attend, Gov Gambler said
to-day he might embody the recommended
tons Of the convention in his annual mes
sage 10 the general assembly. if they meT
his views, but before committing himself
he wanted to see what they would do.
The Governor regrets his inability 90 go

IS to his state. The trips to Macon and
Savannah will cali him away from his Of

MANS PHYSICAL OBJECTS.
Uneven Shoulders, Arms, Legs and
Hips Are Numerous.


Hips Are Numerous.
From the New York Sun
man can be measured to the best adj
vantage, tailors say, away from a glass.
Standing before mirror he is almost GER
tain to throw out his chest, if he does
not habitualy carry it so, and take an
attitude that he would like to have, rather
than the one he commonly holds; whereas
the tailor wants him. as the portrait paint
er wants his subject, in his natural pose
and manner With the man in that at
ttude the tailor can bring his art to bear
if that is required-in the overcoming of
any physical defect and produce clothes
that will give the best attainable effect
upon the figure, as they will be actually
worn.
The physical defect most common in
man, is uuevenness of the shoulders. One
shoulder is higher than the other, and
this is a defect often encountered, though
the difference in the hight may not be so
great as to be noticeable except by one
accustomed to taking note of such things.
This is a defect that is easily overcome
by the tailor, when it exists in a compare
lively moderate degree. Ii is done some
times simply by cutVng the coat TO fit on
each shoulder, the perfect fitting coat car
rylng with it the idea and the appearance
of symmetry. Sometimes, and this is COM
monty done in cases of more pronounced
differences, symmetry Is attained by the
familiar method of building up or padding
the lower shoulder. The influence of the
lower shoulder extends down on that
side of the body. so that sometimes it is
necessary below the arm to cut that side
of the coat shorter. Next to unevenness
of the shoulders, round shoulders are, per-
haps, the commonest defect.
A very cofOTnOn thing 1IravappeeS
the hips. A difference of half an inch here
would not be at all remarkable; it is some
times much more. If man finds one leg

while the other clears it, he may reasona-

THREE SERIOUSLY WOUNDED.
An Alteration in Richmond Had a
Troublesome Ending.

Troublesome Ending.
Richmond. Va, Sept. 18.-Late this aft
ernoon at Charlottesville, Va, shooting
ARRAY occurred on the main street, in
which Police officer l. S. Hall was shot
in the shoulder, Officer F. H. stratton was
shot in the wrist. and Charles z. Josephs
of Batesville was seriously wounded in
the region of the heart.
The shooting grew out of an alterca-
ton between J Frank Kelley, the su-
perintendent of the telephone exchange,
and officer Hall, which resulted from the
formers obJecting TO the latter's visiting
one Of the ladies in the exchange during
business hours. Later Kelley and Jo-
sephs were driving down the street in a
buggy, when Hail assaulted Kelley, strik-
ing him several times. Kelley drew his
pistol and commenced firing, Wounding
Hall and Stratton, who came to Halls
assistance, and Hall, in returning the
fire, shot JOsephs.
