Baseball fans will be given a rare treat
In the history Of the national game to-
day Both ST. Louis teams will be at home
to-day and will play double-headers.
The attraction at League Park will be
the famous Pittsburg Pirates, who have
twice landed the bunting and are now. lead
Ing the National League. Patsy Donovan
commander general of the Cardinal forces
stated last night that he looked for his
youngsters to get at least an even break
with the much-touted Pirates, and says q
double win for st. Louis would not sur
prise him.
For the purpose of winning. Donovan has
been carefully grooming Eddie Murphy. the
giant Hght-hander. who won SO easily from
the Chicago Colts on his last appearance
In the box.
Murphy Is booked to pitch for the Card.-
nails in the first tilt while Sam Lever. the
famous pitching schoolmaster. who per-
formed the remarkable feat Of pitching
thirty-four consecutive innings early in the
spring without a run being made of his de-
livery. will twfrl for the Champs"
In the second tilt ..Plucky' DunIeavy will
oppose Deacon PHILIPPE. who is at present
pitching the best bail Of his career.
HOFFMAN TO PLAY.
To add additional interest to the game the
Pittsburg management intend to let Arthur
Hoffman, the ST. Louis boy who is with
them. play in both games Young Hoffman
win take Sebring's place in right field. In
last fridays game Sebring was hit on the
wrist hy one OF McFarland's shoots and ts
badly famed as a result.
When SebrinE was hit the blow panied
him considerably. but he finished out the
game. Friday at the hotel he reported to
Hans Wagner, who is now in charge OF the
Pirates. that his arm was SO badly hurt
that he would probably not be able to play,
Wagner. who has been carefully watching
the work OF Hoffman. Immediately decided
to give the youngster chance. Hoffman

 Frank and Boss were like timorous girls at first. and after wetting their toes would run back on the sand. But 1they soon got over it, and began to founder around in great glee. Betty grew envious of their freedom and in sisted that her rider dismount, but Pro beseu stuck on. She swan out forty yards from shore, and, filling her trunk with salt water, sent a regular geyser | into the sky. But Probescu was not to be washed off like fly. ts5..s
 Betty looked around and then filled her trunk again. This time she swung it straight back toward Probescu, and before he knew what had happened a torrent of water struck him in the face l and sent him over backward into the surf. He struck out for the sands and Betty swam out toward diving float. Suddenly she changed her mind and swan for her jungle home in Africa. She steered straight for the point of Sandy Hook, and her vigorous kicks sent mighty waves rolling on the shore, just as if an ocean liner had passed close in

LA FRETTE.
A Quaint Little Village in Which They
 Speak Bad French.

Speak Bad French.
 It seems hardly credible that not
 more than thirty minuest from all the
 noise and hustle of Paris there lies a village that is so quiet, so peaceful and so old-fashioned that one you'd imagine
 oneself at least 100 miles away from the gay capital.
 Here, at this village, La Frette by name. and about fifteen minutes walk from Comedies, preparations for mid day and evening repasts have to be made very early in the morning, for no such thing as good shop is anywhere near and the walk to Comedies is one which one considers twise, before talk ling, for it is up steep and rough roads. So daily butcher, baker and green gro- cer pass this quaint little place, and the villagers gather around the various ltradesnen and make their purchases for the day. They also buy their clothes | in this way, and have often seen them trying on bonnets, dresses and boots in the middle of the street.
 From a scenic point of view all ar l lists have agreed that there is no place to equal La Frette between Paris and Havre. To the left of the village Is the | park of Maisons Latfitte, and facing the | park is Sartouville,, while opposite lies the forest of St. Gernlaiil in all its green splendor. To the right is Herblay, quite an important place, whose church is visible for miles along the Seine.
 La Frette itself has the quaintest vil- lagers possible. Many of them speak worse French than those of the Midi, and it is an event, indeed, when one takes Journey up to the capital. They are the thriftiest of the thrifty. Only short time ago one of the peasants
 gave his daughter no less sum than quarter of million francs on her we'd I ding day, and another is to receive the same amount on her approaching mar riage. And yet this man, who must be worth four or five millions of francs at least, lives in a patched-up old house and digs in the fields from early morn | ing till late at night.
 La Frette boasts of church which | is so decrepit that it has to be plastered lup from time to time to keep it from absolute ruin. Here mass is said once a week-on Sunday mornings at 10, The villagers appear on these occasions in their best clothes. No sooner is mass
 over, however, than they rush home and take them off, except when such an event as premiere communion takes place, such as was the case a few Sum days ago, when they spend the best part | of the day in church, and in the evening dinner parties are given on a, sumptu- ous scale in several of the cottages.

 Der with his feet stuck up on the porch railing, he toyed with a glass of amber colored liquid. Out West, he went on, two outlaws caught a tenderfoot one day who had wandered away from camp alone. They tied the unfortunate one to tree and politely went through his pockets, taking everything of value. They left him still tied up, with the ad- vice to not worry, as somebody would
 happen along and release him. Sure enough, some one did happen along, and, attracted by the cries of the victim, stopped his horse to question the stranger as to how he came in such a plight.

EMPRESS OF KOREA BORN IN
 WISCONSIN 5ss

Born in the backWoods as the daugh- ter of an itinerant missionary and at forty the empress of an Oriental king dom and mother of the heir apparent to the Korean throne is the story of Emily Brown, born on Appleton, and now the Empress O1n of Korea.
 Last January Vi Houss, emperor of Korea, celebrated the fortieth anniver- sary of his coming to ths throne, and on the same day Miss Brown, who has long been the light of the ennperor's ha- rem, was crowned Empress of Korea and her son declared heir apparent to the throne Up to the time of her coro- nation Miss Brown was known as Lady Emily Now she is the Empress Om, which in English means dawn of the morning. Es
 Emily Brown was born in Appleton about 1860, her father, the Rev. Herbert Brown, being Presbyterian missiona- ry, who liver here only a few months and her mother remarkably beautiful woman When Emily was about fifteen years old he'd father went as a nission- ary to Korea, and is said to have been luS DIStIIOlCSluill " SCItiC in the capital city of Seul. His wife and child went with him.
 Emily sang in the mission church, and learning the language rapidly, came to be used as an interpreter in church dealings with the government. Her beauty kas reported to the emperor, and he commanded her to enter his harem, which she indignantly refused to do. About two years later she concluded to accept the emperors protection and went to live in the palace after secur- ing from the emperor solemn prom ise of marriage when affairs of state would permit. This promise was kept soon after she bore the emperor a son.
 These facts were learned here by re- cent private correspondence from To- kio, Japan fom American missionary sourcesAp Appleton (Wis.) Correspon- dence of the Chicago Record Herald.

1922 Madison Ave, New York City, Writes of the Virtues of
 cuticura.

"To-day am thankful to say my boys are hearty and strong as any chil- dren in the city, but had my fair share of care and work when they were babies. An infants skin is so delicate and fine that the least thing will hurtit. For chafng, for all eruptions and out breaks on the skin, for roughness and chapping, I always used Cuticura.
 :" If my boys all passed through baby- hood without any serious or alarming skin trouble, I attribute that circum- stance to the prompt and free use of Cuticura when the first sign of disease appeared. Ishould add thatwe always used Cuticura Soap in bathing, the chil- dren. It seems to get all the impuri- ties out of the skin, and If there is g single ingredient in it that can possibly do harm, have never found trace of 1t. Sometimes I read in papers of babies who have been allowed to suffer long time with a terrible disease be- fore their mothers started to use Cuti- cura. I think such cases as strange as they are sad for by this time everybody ought to know about Cuticura and nobody ought to wait for weeks and even months to pass before resorting to this remedy.
 T wish every mother in the world could learn what splendid thing Cuti- cura is. Then we should have vastly fewer sick, disfigured babies and vastly fewer parents tortured with anxiety"

Relation of the Vice Presidency to the

 It doesn't pay to argue with wo- man. The other night when arrived home found that my wife had bought a new hat which may have fitted her head all right, but which was several sizes too large for my pocketbook, My previous experiences should have taught me wisdom, taught me better than to discuss the matter, but the tri- als of that days business had made me irritable and felt like complaining about something, and so I naturally complained of my wife's extraya- gance.
