A man without legs pitched seven
innings in n baseball game at Standard
Park In Falrview, N. j.. recently. and
as often as his turn came around took
his position at the bat. This baseball
wonder was Van Cleef, formerly cap
tain of the Trenton baseball team who
two years ago lost both his legs In
railroad accident. The game was be-
tween the Electrics OF Englewood and
the Standard Athletic clubs nine. Van
Cleef pitched for the Electrics.
To get about the field the legless man
used wheeled chair. 1t was designed
to be propelled by himself. but there
were dozen small boys who were
ready to fight for the honor of wheel
ing him. Others found lesser de-
gree of glory in holding his red sweat
err while he was pitching
And 1t was good game of ball that
Van Cleef pitched, He has retained all
of his old curves and speed and the
batters found 1t extremely difficult to
hit him. He was continually ON the
alert and three times caught men nap
ping on bases and put them ont. While
small boy braced the wheels of his
chair Van Cleef put a fly into right field
and by proxy ran three bases, bringing
men home from second and third, lie
seems as handy with the bat rs If he
were standing on his legs.

A Successful Experiment.

A lady, who frca a generous heart
or miscalculation prepared too many
sandwiches for recent picnic lunch
con, was at loss to know what to do
with those left in her basket. She was
about to toss them out when a friend
suggested that she take them home and
cook them for breakfast. The novelty
of the experiment tempted her, and,
following the instructions to roll them
In beaten egg and fly, serving hot. she
had dish which All pronounced delic-
ious. You see the meat between the
slices OF bread was minced ham. and
while everyone knows that ham and
eggs and fried bread naturally go to-
gsther. few would have thought of the
above method of serving them.

ON MANY SUBJECTS
A NaturaI Fog HORN.

At the Farallones the erosive agents
have worked with queer caprice. This
rock being granite. has been acted up
on BY the sea at all levels, and through
out the long period when it has been
rising out of the water depths. Through
long, narrow hole. slanting and COM
municating with the ocean, there
comes at intervals terrific stream Of
air. forced by the spasmodic heaving
OF the waves against the lower orifice.
The government, which uses this island
for lighthouse purposes, inelosed the
upper end with the nozz.a OF fog
horn. and every few seconds there was
blown an ear-splitting brawl, which
waa heard far out Mt sea and above the
din OF the breaking rollers. II was al
lowed to roar only In foggy weather.
but II was eccentric in that 1t would
only sound at high tide. When the tide
was low, although the weather might
be very thick, the thing was silent
For lack of Its warning a ship went
ashore upon the island rocks. and then
1t was that the government abandoned
its location on the wind hole and erect
ed a steam siren or mechanical fog
horn, which has since very faithfully
performed the necessary service.

The bicycle thirst is admitted by all
wheelmen who have experienced 1t to
be the most intense longing for liquid
refreshment that they have ever
known. Wheelmen, and especially
wheelwomen, are the best customers Of
country drug stores and roadside inns
where soft" drinks are obtalnable.
The principal cause Of the bicycle
thirst Is the fact that nearly all riders
keep their mouth open or partially
open when on the wheel. This Is, of
course, In violation of the rule laid
down by athletic trainers that while
undergoing exercises a man must
breathe only through his nostrils. The
experienced wheelman does this, but
nine riders In ten breathe through the
mouth. The result is that road dust
enters. clogs up the throat, giving 1t
the sensation of dryness and oftentimes

SPORTING NOTES.

WheeIman's Advice to Wheelmen.
Be moderate Don't try to make
century run every day, and end up In
the undertakers quad.
Temper your zeal with judgment. III
the tires of your life-wheels are pump
ed up too tight, you Will find you have
a rough road to travel and will get
shaken up tremendously; If they are
fabby you will n axe poor Roadway
and spoil your tires.
Keep your bearings well fabricated
with the oil OF diligence and perseyer-
ance and see that every nut is screwed
home by the wrench of determination.
Always keep to the right and so
avoid collision with the wrongdoer and
the evil-disposed, and keep your eyes
open to see danger and avoid 1t.
Ring you bell vigorously when the
Prince of Darkness appears before you,
that he may flee from before you and
leave you clear road to a correct liv-
ing.
Keep yourself erect, that men may see
that you possess the full stature OF a
man. Don't run amuck through temp
tations, with your back in the air and
your eyes between your feet, or you
will surely be lost
