fast on their feet and are batting
above the 300 mark.
Some of the fans were inclined to
knock because of tie transfer of the
three games. SaCurday, Sunday and
Monday from here to Muskogee, but
when they take the financial standing
of the Vinita club into consideration
and the fact that the trasfer means a
net profit of $3.50 to Vinita besides
the saving of transportation from
Muskogee here and back, they will be
satisfied that it was best to make the
taasfer.

BROKE HIS ARM
PITCHING BALL
Curious Mishap to Parsons
Pitcher, Duncan.

Webb City, Aug. l.-Y Yesterdays
game between Webb City and Par
sons included a most unusual and un-
fortunate incident-one the like Of
which has probably occurred q dozen
times in the history Of baseball ia the
United States
John Duncan, while pitching for
the visitors in the first half Of the
third inning, broke his arm while In
the act Of delivering a ball. Instead
of reaching the home plate and falling
into the catchers NIT, the ball dropped
midway between the box and the bat
ter, while Duncan's arm fell helpless
at his side.
A doctor who was in attendance at
the game was called to his aid and
found that the arm was broken above
the elbow, and Duncan was of course
out OF the game. He was sent at once
to his hotel and the broken bone was
set, Adams took his place in the box
for the rest Of the game.
Much sympathy was felt for the un-
fortunate young pitcher Duncan is
only seventeen years old, and this is
his first year at professional baseball.
Prior to being signed for the Valley
league he had played a good deal of
amateur ball and has been regarded as
a southpaw Of considerable promise.
He will return to his home at Weir
CITY. Kan.

THE DYING Lacquer.

A Missouri Valley Lacquer was grow
ing cold as ice,
There was lack of woman's nursing
cause he didh have the price.
He had made few ''grand stands, =
and errors by the score,
Till his manager and others could
stand for him no more.
So the umpire called the game and
to the fans who gathered there
lie narrated this sad story with what
breath he had to spare.
81 was signed up in Vinita, where
the artesian waters blue,
There's a gag that is a corker, but
of course it's lost on you);
l could play ball from my childhood,
so they signed me right away
THAT perhaps was mistake, at least
that's what they say
was always good at batting so l
soon became STAR
you'll be hardly up to that one, all
untutored as you are).
"My best curves were seldom handled;
they we're nearly always balled-
[ Bald with age-I'll whisper to you;
if that last one had you stalled).
| was called an ''all around" man
though ! seldom made score,
{ If you tumble next to that one, |
won't crack you any more).
But l never learned the knack Of get
ting popular with the fans
Till / went up to Webb City where
they had me rush the can.
"Tell the fans and base ball magnates
when they meet and crowd around
To read our score with Mus-ko-gee
played here upon this ground
That it won't be ali of our fault if
you lose this game TO-DAY,
But we're strictly up against it since
we lost our pitcher Dlye.
And ask them these few questions, if
perchance they seem to know,
Why they canned 'Shanty Shannon,
Happy Hooligan and LonghY
"Why didn't they sign Bill Wakefield,
Cy Young or Dusty Rhodes?
And why did Harland lose his finger,
likewise his grip and clothesY
Rnf hovs Oh on and nlav rhe game.
I'd like to see it through,
Before my fiickering glimmering light
goes up the chimney fiue."
They played, and lost, but to their
pal, they whispered they had won,
Thinking perhaps such good news
might start his blood to run.
The dying Lacquer raised his head,
Can this be true" he cried,
'tAh, no; the age Of miracles is past.
my friends you've simply lied"
1--WE did, F" they said, "those curves Of
Blues were hardly touched today
While Speck and Tex, and Murphy
too, got all that came their way"
But the Lacquer only shook his head,
you boys can't win" he sighed,
Then looking at the umpire, he
winked one eye and died.

The Fighting In Tibet.

Most of the serious encounters
were like medieval street fighting
and took place in narrow passages
and chambers of old jongs and mon
asteries. The expedition surely af-
forded the two strangest types OF
engagement in modern times-the
taking Of the Gyangtse monastery.
when Glands Of desperate swords
men were found in knots under trap
doors and behind sharp turnings,'
and our troops fought in ga perfect
warren of dark cells and rooms, .
and the second fight ON the Karo-la:
when the Ghoorkas performed feats
Of rock climbing which would have
done credit to any Alpine club, and
had scrimmage in a cave at an
altitude Of $4,000 feet. = London

Benny on the Crocodile.

The crocodile is large animal
that inhabits the Nile and loves to
go on the sandy beach to bask in
the sunshine and lay eggs 1t looks
some like dachshund, only there is
more of it at the ends and it is big
ger. There was crocodile once
that escaped from a circus. It roam
ed DER the country, seeking In vain
for pigs and small children to de-
YOUR, and died of starvation in great
anguish. You can ride on the back
of crocodile, but it is more COM
Portable to use a saddle. 1t is usual
ly quiet, but is terrible when reused.
We all ought to be thankful we are
not crocodile. Benny in Chicago

Guilty by the Partisan working peo-
pie and existence is such a struggle
that they clutch at their sous with
deadly tenacity. When some years
ago the Opera Comique blazed amid
a scene awful as that of battlefield
the women attendants thought of
their tips, the half franc due here
and there for footstool. Unmind-
full of their own peril and that of
others, they rushed to and fro, be-
sieging half suffocated, half dement,
ed creatures for their money. A
similar scene happened during the
terrible catastrophe on the Paris un-
derground railway. Although the
delay of few seconds might mean
life or death, many workmen refused
to move from the crowded station,
clamoring for the return of the for
feited ticket.

estimated to number more than 2OO,-

patches in some craters and the
bright lines, radiating in some cases
hundreds Of miles, are thought by
Professor Pickering to be due to

Not only does he address his private
secretaries, of whom he has two, IN

spondence is with persons who speak
English only he dictates his letters
in French, and it is necessary for the
secretary to translate them before
