Chicago * suffering from cruel
famine famine of ping-pOng balls.
1t * Il famine that even riches will
not ameliorate. for in all the great
concerns where men and women bar
ter and trade not one of the precious
Ping-pOng balls * offered for sale.
Thousands of Chicago residents are
willing to be caught by the craze
that captivated London, but they
cant get in line. The manufacturers
Of the ping-pong balls are not equal

Yesterday there was one ping-pOn2
ball on sale in Chicago-and it wasn't
for sale. G. II. Whitney Of \. 6.
Spalding Il Bros. had the ball in his
pocket and wouldn't trust it out of
his sight. He seemed 10 he afraid il
would roll away. During the day
there were no less than fifty demands
for this precious ball. Orders came
by telephone, mail, and personal
calls. In some cases tears were shed
by the famished ones, but Mr.. Whit
ncy stceIed his heart to all cntrcaties
and kept the ball in his pocket.
Ping-pong made its advent i'm the
west four or five months ago. The
game is called parlor tennis here.
but in name only does il differ from
the London social craze. The sport
met. with instant favor and has been
introduced in hundreds of homes.
most of the clubs. and in other places
where the so-called innocent amuse-
monts are sought.
1t seemed that every one caught
the ping-pong fever at once. Thou
sands of sets have been sold i'm Chi
cago, and now. just as interest in the
game is intense. the manufacturer
throws shoe and goes lame.
The balls are made from waferlike
sheets of celluIoid and weigh little
more than nothing. The service to
which. the balls are put requires that
the material be seasoned for at least
three months before il is fit for use.
hence the process of manufacturing
them is slow.
During the last three or four
months between 10000 and $4,000 of
the ping-pong balls have been sold in
Chicago, and yet today half the peo-
pie who have worked themselves up

where the family of Mcdonald is
domiciled. The weapon used was a
long sharp knife. and it penetrated
the body of Mcdonald just under the
shoulders near the middle of the
back. Blood spouted from the cash
and the injured man was soon lying
in pool of his own gore. The police
were notified of the occurrence very
soon after it happened and the am
bulance took the wounded man to St
Luke's hospital. Reports today were
that fatal consequences were not eX-
pected, since the cut had been found
to he Il shallow one. The patient was
said to he resting quite comfortably.
According to the story of the affair
told by Il daughter of Mr.. Mcdonald
the stabbing grew out of the hostile
attitude of her father toward the
Italian, whom he had forbidden to
enter their rooms on the ground floor
of the building. Rocco escaped.

Society is Suffering a Ping
Pong Panic.

To a high state of enthusiasm over
ping-pong cant buy balls enough to
keep the game going. Tournaments
i'm progress at clubs and i'm social
circles have been seriously intcrferc1
with. and altogether the ping-Pong
players are having troubles of their
own.
The life of ping-pOng ball under
ordinary circumstances is about a
week. If there happens TO be Il man
or woman in the game who possesses
an asscrtivc temper it is less. This
fact has something to do with the
stringency i'm the market. The de-
mand has become so great that at
tcmpts have been made to substitute
cork for celluloid, but the expert
ments have not resulted satisfac-
tnrily. True lovers of ping-Pong re-
bcllcd at the mere thought.
I'VE are loo sets behind our or
dcrs," said Nh. Whitney yesterday.
Everybody seems to he ping-pong
wild. We have orders for at least
fifteen gross of the balls. AMI we have
just one ball in stock. That is i'm my
pocket. We have one man who does
nothing but stand at the telephone
and say:
'Ping-pong balls? No. mann; we
haven't any. Sorry, of course, but
you Observation-Disclosures that? / am
donkey? Very well, MAIN, perhaps
you're right. Good-by.'
