Decatur Review: Fans at the Hut
are swelling up over having a win
ming team and are now talking bet
ter league next year with a salary
limit of 81 900 a month instead of the
present limit. That means that De-
catur won't be in.
The Decatur Review says that no
one need worry about the Decatur
team not caring whether they win the
games, but how much money is taken
in, for that club will pull through
the season. This is gratifying to the
other teams, as this will mean most

SaItair Bather Wanted to Check
His Pants.

The chap who checked his pants is
one of the fellows who broke the dull
mOnotony of the attendants at Saltair
and proved that even that resort is not
free from freaks. He rushed up TO
young Mr. McAllister. who has charge
Of the checking Of the valuables; he
was attired in his bathing suit; he
stepped over the hot planks with the
grace Of a hip-locked Shanghai rooster,
and his bare legs, that would have ap-
peared perfectly at home in the water
caused many a modest maiden to rush
to the other side of the pavilion. He
had his pants clasped to his bosom
and he looked to the right and the left
as though expecting an assault. When
he reached the window he demanded
that Mr.. McAlHster check those pants.
L am sorry" was the polite reply,
but 1 can't check your pants for you"
''Why?" he demanded. Don't your
notices say to check our valuables at
the Office. and amt this the Office ."
.'Well, yes, that is true, but we would
hardly class your pants as valuables;
and. besides. they would not go into
one of our envelopes"
Then followed a long explanation as
to how things are checked. The man
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1901-08-28

finally unrolled his pants, surreptitious-
" took his valuables from the pockets
and put them into one Of the envelopes
Then he carried the pants back to his
bath room. The supposition is that he
did not see the notice as to checking
Yaluables till he was ready for the
water. The boys We're sorry afterwaTd
that they did not check the pants in
some way, and see what a figure the
fellow would cut after he got out of the
lake.
A day or two before this a gentleman
rushed up to the Office window. red IN
the face and very much excited. With
difficulty he wrote his name on one
Of the slips and showed it in to Mr..
McAiHster for the redemption Of his
valuab les- The polite official handed
him his envelope, but he did not take
it. A look of the most sublime relief
came over his countenance, and he
managed to say;
Il don't want it; I just wanted to
see if it was here"
He then went off and had a good
bath Like the Dutchman at the bank,
if his stuff was there, he didn't want
it; but if it wasn't there, he wanted it
awfully bad.
