REGULAR HOURS FOR MEALS.
Matter Of Importance Housekeepers
Frequently Overlook.

Everyday Luncheons says too much
cannot be said in favor of regular
hours for meals. Midway between
breakfast and dinner there should be
a nourishing luncheon, not elaborate
in quality or quantity. but sufficient.
Furnaces are supplied with coal each
day at approximately the same hours.
The jewellers who deal in expensive
watches will advise winding the
watch at exactly the same hour each
day. Does not the human body mean
as much to the soul that dwells in il
as a watch or a furnace?
When one eats a hearty breakfast,
the noon luncheon should be light, and
consist mainly Of fruit When break
fast Is light, the non luncheon should
be of a more substantial character.
A lively form of entertainment has
been recently in vogue. Housekeep-
ers gather together, and the hostess
distributes pencils and slips of pa
per- Each woman writes on as many
slips of paper five 'left-overs" likely
to be in any refrigerator at any time.
These are all shaken up together, and
each woman draws five. The problem
is to get the best possible luncheon
from The "left-overs" on the five slips,
and the one who does the best with
her material gets the prize.

GAME PROTESTED
Methodists, Who Lost Monday Even
ina's Game, Protest It On Account
Of Claimed lneIsibiIity Of consre-
gationaIists' Catcher League
Meeting Tonight.

Trouble is brewing in the city church
league just like it does at times with
the professionals. Monday nights game
between the Methodists and Congrega-
tionalists. which the latter won 4 to 0,
was protested by the Methodists before
it was played, because of the claimed
ineligibility to belong to the Congre-
gational team of James Welch, its
catcher. 1t is claimed that WEIGH is
not only not a member of the Congre-
gational church, but that he is mem
Der of the Catholic church, and for
both these reasons he is not entitled
to play. A meeting of the league Is
to be helS torlight and the protested
game, also WEIGHS standing in the
league is to be threshed out.
The Congresationalists had an easy
time beating the Methodists, and by
SO doing pushed the losers out OF sec
ond place, and took that place them
selves. This evening the Presbyter-
ian and st. Paul teams are to play.

Standing Of the Clubs.

The crippled Brownies hobbled back
home yesterday and went thru an ex-
hibition with .Ft. Dodge that almost
required label to brand lit as a sam
pie of the great national game Tho
final score was to 3, with the visitors
owning the 8. No more wretched
game has been played in these parts
in many moons, but owing to the
shot-to-pieces and patched up local
caste little more could be expected
from Browns men.
The same excuse can not be offer ed
for the visitors who played a regular
line up, barring one exception, but ev-
en- at that they We're as bad as the
Brownies.
For more than two hours the locals
and the visitors kept anlassing errors
and poor plays in an effort to win, and
the finish did not come until after the
whistles of neighboring factories had
sent home to supper their workmen.
Mr.. Fuller, the large umpire was
loboriously hitting his ear" in his
hotel room when he should have been
on hand to start the proceedings. AZ
ter the hotel alarm system and three
bell boys had exhausted themselves,
they aroused him from his slumber
and sent him hot-footing for the field.
If Fuller was slow in getting there,
the bout was equally slow in proceed
ing once 1t had started.
From the very first, Slapnicka, who
flung the locals game, got a.bad deal
He passed a couple in the opening in
ming, and sandwitched in between the
trips was a pair of queer looking hits,
one of which was a bunt, the net re-
suit of which was two tallies. The
odds against them of the first inning
seemed to dry up the ginger-producins
sap in the locals veins. Thereafter
they played as men in a trance The
lead acquired had a similar effect on
the visitors, who seemed to take 1t for
granted the two was enough to down
the locals.
Errors in the fifth-inexcusable
ones-Williams wild throw and Spen-
GERS muff of thrown ball at first, re-
suited in producing two of the three

that inning would have blanked the
visitors, for what would have been the
third out came before a spasmodic
batting rally chased home the two
Williams and Spencer had allowed to
stay on.
While the visitors amassed total
Of nine credited hits off Slapnicka, the
lad pitched a better game than the
compiled statistics would indicate. Had
his pals given him the support he de-
served, he would have beaten the Wis
itors 3 to 2.
Eddie Bantz gave to Brownies
go for their money by pinning them
down to four singles, and not an earn
ed run. While he pitched an excellent
game his support was as rank in spots
as anything that S'lapnicka had to
contend with. He had the advantage
of being able to subdue his opponents
with few hits whether his pals backed
him up or not.
A pass and wild, pitch gave the To-
calls their first run. Slapnicka's hit
and Hupp's error produced the second,
and two passes and a hit in the ninth
gave the third In that last half of the
ninth Bantz was wabbling, and Still
man was chased from the bench to
warm up, but waJ not needed. The

noon to strengthen the Brownies ana
help them out while the team is IN such
a crippled condition. Johnson VIII De
put on first base to fill the gap there,
which has badly weakened the team
since Manager Brown has been COM
PEELED to be out of the game. With
Johnson on first, Spencer will be again
sent to the outfield TO strengthen that.
and the team should then get into
something like it's old form. Manager
Brown expects to be back in the game
in a few days but as his injured finger
on the right hand. it is hardly be-
ieved he will be able to play again
until the finger is well.

JUDGES DISQUALIFIED
Necessity Arises to Call in Judge From
Another District to Try Paving
cases-To Agree On Some One to
Preside.

In the district court this morning at
torneys interested in the suits appeal
ing from the assessments for paving
under the Barber contracts, raised the
question as to the propriety of Judge
Parker trying the cases. Judge Parker
thereupon announced that he consid-
cred that he was disqualified because
Of his connection with some Of the
cases as attorney for those who have
appealed, and that therefore some ar
rangement would be necessary to bring
the cases to hearing.
Judge Burnham had previously init
mated that he was disqualified from
sitting on the hearings, because Of his
services as arbitrator in the attempted
settlement of the cases. Judge Parker
therefore informed the parties inter-
ested that they should agree upon
some judge from another district to
come here and try the cases when they
come on for trial
