ABOUT SUNDAY BASEBALL
Dreyfus Gives Vent to His Opinion on
the Subject.

Cincinnati, Jan. l2.-President Drey-
fus, OF the Pittsburg Club. does not
believe In rovolutionizing Sunday ar
rangements as 10 playing Sunday
baseball in the East. While this was
being discussed Mr.. Dreyfus said:
Such departure would not only
kill the Saturday attendance, but Il
would hurt business during the week,
so that on the whole nothing would
be gained. The people Of the East
have been brought up to oppose Sunday
amusements, and Sunday baseball
games could not be forced upon them
think those Eastern teams would do
wise thing II they gave up the idea
Of playing Sunday games at home. II
/ could / wouldn't play Sunday games
In Pittsburg. Our Saturday and week
day patronage, as in the East, is such
that ] would not care TO jeopardize Il
by a change
President Hermann, of the National
Commission, expects no trouble over
the proposed invasion of the Brooklyn
Clubs territory by the New York
American League Club. He stated to-
day that he thought the matter eventu-
ally would reach the National Commits
sion for adjustment II the New York
Americans insisted in playing SUNDAY
games at Ridgemood Park and the
Brooklyn Club continued its opposi-
tion to such an arrangement. What
the outcome Of the controversy IN this
event would be Mr.. Hermann declined

Taboo Chewing Gum

There has begun in Boston a cru
sade against the teachers of that euri-
dite centre who chew gum. The intel
lectual world at large was shocked
when the painful fact became known
that Boston school teachers actually
did chew gum. The crusade was be-
gun by a member of the school COM
mittee who was stuck to a chair by
gum while visiting a school.
A canvass of the schools reveals that
scores of Boston teachers are gum
chewers, and upon inquiry twas learn
ed that most of them came from Maine
or New Hampshire. the spruce gum
producing States, where they had early
acquired the habit. The committee on
hygiene If the school board will con-
slider at its next meeting the advisa-
bility of posting a circular In all
schools prohibiting the chewing Of
gum by either teachers or scholars.

For the PIayroon1

It is astonishing how children enjoy
the wall papers designed nowadays es-
peclally for the nursery and showing

tales and other nursery lore. A paper
Of this sort seems ever new to the little

The very newest thing is the North
American Indian motif, stenciied on a

lustrate Indian legends. most Of which
are characterized by precisely the inn
aginative charm which fasclnates chill
dren. Most of the figures arc symbolicai.
One design, "The Elements" is taken
directly from the altar Of the Antelope

village in Arizona. The color scheme

Vogue of White

So many different varieties of white ma
terial are TO be seen in the shops as to
make Il quite certain white will be FASH
sonable again this summer. The white
linen and pique gowns of last year will
be copied this season, and white corduroy
that was SO popular last summer is al
ready in great demand now. Long coats
are, so tits said. not to be so fashionable
as short jackets. and yet the leading tail
ors are making up long coats dn pique,
linen and corduroy on exactly the same
dimes as last year. OF course, there are no
end of smart little jackets as WELL but
the long coats were very useful, so be-
coming and so smart it would lie quite inn
possible to eliminate them from the COM
plete outfit
Heavy white silk costumes will be very
smart. and these are made either after
the long coat model or in some fancy de-
sign Of short Eton bolero or peated jacket.
The latter must be carefully made go that
the pleats viii not get out of pace when
the coat is laundered or cleaned; for the
rule is that a white frock shall always be
Immediately fresh, necessitamng constant
trips to the laundry or cleaners.
White muslin gowns of organdie, null
or lawn will be as fashionable as ever
and that means they viii be constantly IN
demand. The more elaborate the style ol
frock the smarter. and the amount of lace
embroidery or handwork that can be pul
on a so-called simple white muslin gowr
IS overwhelming. In heavier muslins there
are many new and charming designs will
figures or dots woven into the fabric
These will not require so much lace ol
embroidery. but all the same are made VI
in most intricate fashion.

Punto tagiato Is new and fascinating
variety Of embroidery, which does not
resemble lace or drawn work or embroid-
cry but is a blending Of all three. The
stitches are taken on the material, and

back of the stitches, leaving a filling OF
openwork lace designs on a solid founda-
uon. The work Is done with silk on linen.

only for home decoration, but for per-

stitch, and the skilful needlewoman may
invent stitches Of her own, the work is re-
iieved Of monotony and the worker has
plenty Of scope for originality.

My Lady.

She walks unnoticed in the street;
The casual eye
Sees nothing in her fair or sweet;
The world goes by.
Unconscious that an angels feet
Are passing nigh.
She little has of beauty's wealth;
Truth will allow
Only her priceless youth and health,
Her broad white brow;
Yet grows she on the heart by stealth
1 scarce know how.
She does q thousand kindly things
That no one knows;
A loving woman's heart she brings
To human woes;
And to her face the sunlight clings
Where'er she goes.
And so she walks her quiet ways
With that content
That only comes to sinless days
And innocent;
A life devoid of fame or praise,
Yet nobly spent.
