THEY PLAYED ELEGANT BALL.
Hot Springs Captured Two Games and
Loses One to Spcartisl,.

Hot Springs Captured Two Games and
Loses One to Spearfish.
The base ball season opened in Hot
Springs last Friday in a game with
Spearfish Normal School. The weather
was quite unfavorable which prevent.
ed a large number of people from see.
ing the opening game, nevertheless a
good attendance witnessed the con-
test. At $3.50 o'clock Mayor Harry
Clark pitched the first kall, and the
base ball season in Hot Springs was
on. The base ball lovers in Hot Springs
missed treat if they we're not present
at the opening game for both teams
played with dash and vim hardly
witnessed at the end of assessor. The
features were the splendid! pitching of
Hoye for Hot Springs aud the support
given him by the catcher, Coe, and
the stick work of Coe, who made three
hits out of four times at bat. The
Spearfish Normal presented a first
class team, and the Hot Springs team
found their pitcher very hard to hit.
The result was a close, clean contest
with a final score of Hot Springs l to
Speartish o. Following is the score by
innings.

The next day, the second game of
the season was played by the same
clubs. Ted Hummel pitched innings
for Hot Springs, Cheatwood finishing
the game. Owing to the threatening
weather the ATTENDANCE was small.
The feature of the game was in the
first inning that Cheatwood pitched
only nine balls and three men we're
struck out. The game resulted by the
visitors winning by score of6 to ,.
On Sunday Hot Springs crossed bats
with the Deadwood team and a large
number of fans witnessed the game.
In the third inning the game was
nearly stopped by rain and snow, but
it afterward cleared up and Il close
and interesting game was played.
aoye pitched an excellent game for
Hot Springs and was ably supported
by the entire team. The features we're
the battery work of Hoye and Coe and
Cheatwood's batting. A home run drive
by Cheatwood with two men ON bases
in the third inning settling the game
for Hot Springs, and Deadwood never
headed them after that time. There
is always a strong rivalry betwee1
Deadwood and Hot Springs over base
ball and when it became evident thai
Hot Springs was to win, the fans Went
wild. The final score was Hot Spring!

hibiting stock from running at large
should be vigorously enforced, as we'll
as the ordinance relating to dogs being
kept in the city without Il license.
l believe that all supplies purchased
for the city, and all labor of any conse.
quence should be done under contract;
and that we should spend, in careful
and judicious manner, as much money
upon our streets as we can spare for
the purpose. That instead of putting
down plank crossings, it would be more
economical in the long run to put down
sawed stone of sufficient thickness to
prevent its being crushed by heavy
loads being driven over it. We could
probably get reasonable price on this
stone by asking bids from the two quar-
ries which have saw plants.
1nasmuch as the town is practically
supported and kept up by the tourists
who visit us, it seems to me that we all
ought to devote ourselves to doing
everything possible to keep the town
looking bright, clean and inviting.
think the proper committee should
be provided with authority and money

check of the books OF the treasurer, as
those of the auditor, so as to start them
out with thorough and comprehensive

make to the council at the proper times
an itemized statement of all receipts

would be advisable for the city to either
buy, or hire team by the month. Ii

kerchief is then laid over the plain one,
and the two are stitched together on
the line of the hem. Ribbon bows are
attached to each Of the four corners,
and ribbon hanger to the edge at the
opening with full bows at each end.
Another equally charming gift that
can be made from handkerchiefs is the
bureau cover. For this three or four
are required, according to size, and
they can be as simple or elaborate as
desired. White embroidered kerchiefs
are always dainty, but there are aleo
many novelties in color that can be
utilized with good effect. But to get
the best results, the edges should be
plain.
Whatever the number and whatever
Me style, each handkerchief should
have lace insertion at the ends, and
then all be Joined together to form a
strip by means of beading. Around
the entire edge Of the cover is a frill
of lace, which forms a finish.
A still further decorative effect can
be gained by threading all the beading
with colored ribbon. terminating in
bows of many loops. Fine plain hand
kerchiefs with embroidery of small
flowers in color are exceedingly, dainty
and attractive, and many other varia-
tons can be made.-Kansas City Star.

1mnrovised Clothes Closet.

AS my sleeping room had no clothes
closet. I obtained a board IL inches
wide and four feet long. This was fas-
tened securely to the wall by means of
brackets, just high enough for me to
reach conveniently. Into the board I
screwed about two dozen hooks-the
kind made to fasten into the under side
of shelves. This made ample room for
the clothes that were needed most, and
has an advantage over hooks put up
against the wall, in that the clothes do
not crush nearly so badly. Some pretty
curtains reaching from the shelf to the
floor we're used to drape the closet

Scuttling a City.

The ancient capital of Korea, Ping

the dispatches these days, is called by
the natives "the boat-shaped capital"
having been built on these lines. No
one is supposed to dig for water any,
where inside the walls. as that would
be cutting through the bottom and
sinking the ship. For this reason wa.
ter is carrier from the river even to the
most distant quarters, and the peculiar
gait of the water carrier is one of the
oddities of the streets.-Philadelphia

SOME NOTABLE CHILDREN.
The Richest Baby and the Youngest
King, General and Professional
Organist.

The richest baby in the world is said
to be the little son Of the late Harold
Brown, of Providence, r. I. The death,
within few days of each other, of his
father and his uncle left this young
ster the possessor of a fortune which,
according to the New York Sun,
is estimated at between 100000, 900 and
$50, 100000.
The youngest general in the world is
Sultan Ahmed Mira, youngest son of
the late shah of Persia. and brother of
the present shah. He was born in
1891 and is. therefore. only 13, but he
is a full general in the Persian army,
and has a regular staff. He holds re-
views of the troops and plays soldier
with an army corps for plaything.
The youngest king in the world is
Daudi Chua, king of Uganda, who is
now about eight. He holds his court
seated on scarlet throne with leop-
ard skin mat under his feet. and bear
ing in his hand a toy gun. The British
exercise a protectorate over the young
king and his kingdom, and have estab-
lished for him sort of parliament,
which he opens regularly with much
pomp.
Little Daudi Chua speaks English
and gives state dinners, at which there
is a curious mixture of African and
European foods and customs. though
the royal table is supplied with fine
linen, cut glass and silver brought out
from London. At these banQuets the
chief duty of the prime minister is to
see to it that his royal master does not
eat enough to make himself sick.
The youngest professional organist
in the world is Kathleen Mills. who
presides over the great organ in the
Catholic church at Ongar, Essex, Eng
land The regular organist falling ILL.,;
little Miss Mills took her place and
played for several Sundays with such
skill on the instrument that all the
people were astonished when they
found out that child of II years was
presiding over the keys and stops.
The youngest master Of fox hounds
in the world is Lord de Clifford, who is
IS, and has been master of the Dalgan
pack, in County Galway, Ireland, for
two years.

IT IS WORTH cULTIvATlNG.
Women and Girls Without Graceful
Physique Can Never Hope to
Be Attractive.

Nothing can make a lounging stand
ing position excusable. Walls, rail-
ing, posts and door frames were never
intended for human beings to prop them
selves up against-the doing so does not
rest the weary or lessen fatigue in the
least. On the contrary, it rather in
creases it. Besides, the habit soon be-
comes chronic, and a general shiftless,
"loppy" appearance is the vitality. A
correct position promotes vitality, and
is an aid to correct breathing and good
circulation of the blood throughout the
system. Work with Nature, and she
works for you.
The woman who flattens her entire
body, head, shoulders, hips and heels,
against the wall in a crowded room is
another offender. To stand with hips
and heels against the wall is perfectly
allowable in crowded room, but to rest
the shoulders and head against it is to
be unnecessarily ungraceful. Unless the
upper portion of the torso is free, how
can you possibly bow to your acquaint-
ances! You don't suppose a nod is q
bow, do you? We'll, it isn't. The in
clination is always made from the hips.
It is generally very slight movement,
but it carries forward the heart line"
The head is not bent, save when one
wishes to pay reverence or homage, then
the crown of the head is presented.
Otherwise, to be in good FORM" bend
over SO slightly at the hips and keep the
eyes on a level, or as nearly so as posi-
BILE, with those of the one saluted.
Don't on any account bend at the waist
line. This is permissible only in exer-
else work. A nod of the head is taught
in the best schools Of physical express
sion to be curt and indicative of criti-
cism; it also implies an Affirmative
Housekeeper.

How Koreans "Swear or"

Everybody knows the fondness of the
adult Chinese for kite flying. The Ko-
rean, however, puts this pastilne to a
use altogether novel. When the time
of good resolutions comes around at
the new year the Korean writes on a
kite all his faults. Evil disposition,
Impotence, bad words, street fights"
etc. 1T was so dark" says one Ameri-
can residing in Korea, relating such
an instance, that no kite could be
seen, but when he had run the string
out to it's full length he cut it and let
it go, imagining that so he had rid
himself of his enemies and could be-
gin the new year with new courage"
