OF the men had been waiting for hours. 4

WHAT DID THE CATCHER SAYt
Something the "Fans" Would Like tt
Know, But Will Never
Learn.

It was the last half of the ninth.
The pitcher had gone up in the air, and
the bases were es full as three goats, re-
lates the Newark News. n
The score was "a in favor of the team
in the field. A single would tie the score.
A two-bagger would win the game. n
Two men had flied out, and the man at
bat had two strikes against him. &
1t was a crucial moment. =
And, as we say, the pitcher was ratified.
Suddenly the catcher held up his hand.
His right hand. =
He removed his wire mask and stepped
toward the pitcher, who advanced to meet
him =
With mouth close to the pitchers ear
the catcher whispered something. What
it was no one heard but the pitcher, who
returned to the box. 4
The ball shot true across the plate. z
Strike three!" cried the umpire. The
pitcher had saved the day.
Now, then, the thing we want to know
is this: What did the catcher say to the
pitcher?

ferry across little stream out west,
where there is no other way to>cross,
except to wade or go around, and the
old ferryman sizes up the wagon load
that wants to cross, and takes all they
have got loose, and then the travellers are
ahead of the game, cause if they
didn't cross the stream they would
have to camp on the bank until the
stream dried up. Some day an earth
quake will split that desert wide open,
and the water in the Suez canal will
soak into the sand and the steam
boats will lay in the mud, and be COW
cred with a sandstone, and future
ages will be discovering full-rigged
ships down deep on the desert. Dad says
we better sell our stock in the canal
and buy airship stock. And talk about
business, there is more tonnage goes

Gee, dad looked over my shoulder,
and saw what l had written, and he

l think of the brave Irish fellows, and
l wonder why they don't come to

old enough.
Well, sir. we have been through the
Suez canal, and for a great modern
piece of engineering it doesn't size
up with a sewer in Milwaukee, or a
bayou in Louisiana. 1t is just dig
ing a railroad cut through the desert,
and letting in the water and there
you are. The only question in it's
construction was plenty of dredging
machines, and place to pile the dirt
and water that just came in of it's own
accord, and stays there, and smells
like thunder, and you see the natives
look at it and keep away from the
banks, for fear the banks will cave in
on them, and give them bath before
their year is up, cause they don't
battle but once year, and when they
skip year nobody knows about it.
Our boat went right along, and got
out of the canal, because it was a
mail boat, but the most ofsthe boats we
saw were tied up to the bank, waiting
for the millennium. We saw some Rus
siIu boats waiting for the war to
blow over, and as we passed them
every Russian on board looked scared,
as though we were Japs, that were go
ing to fire a torpedo under them, or
throw a bomb on deck, and when our
boat got by the Russian boat the crew
was called to prayers, to thank the
Lord, or whoever it is that the Rus
SLAMS thank because they had escaped
dire peril. guess the Russians are
all in, and tEat those who have not
gone to the front are shaking hands
with themselves, and waiting for the
dove Of peace to alight OH their guns
The Suez canal probably pays, and
no wonder, cause they charge what
they please to boats that go through,
and if they don't pay, all they have
to do is to stay out, and go around a
faw thousand miles. It is like a
