joyed by a larger audience than ex-
pressed its approval and pleasure at
the above mentioned meeting. 1t Is
especially referred just now to the
teachers visiting in Ottumwa.)

OUT Of REACH

VICHY. France, July 10.-Count
Witte, who has been resting here
for some time away from the tur-
MOL of Russian politics was suf-
ficiently recovered today to leave
for Ankles Boins, where he will
spend another month, after which
he may go to Italy or Switzerland
preparatory to returning to Russia
in the fall to take up the works of
state. He Is credited with holding
the view that the representative
branch of the douma Is doing its
utmost to become a revolutionary
body. delaying reforms and main
tanning chaos and that the Jews by
placing themselves at the head of
the revolutionary movement make
it impossible for their friends to
assist them.

NEW RULES
GET RESULTS

What roar has gone up over
the new water regulations" said
Commissioner ONO this morning.
However, it has caused people
to sit up and notice conditions
somewhat. In making the request
to the city council to stop sprink-
ling altogether l did it only with
view to having the council make
some radical change, which was
done"
A great deal of complaint is
caused by the cutting down of the
sprinkling hours and some people
maintain that two hours a day is
not long enough. But already
there has been a noticeable differ
ence in the pressure on Cannon
Hill where. with the old rules in
effect. places would go for two or
three days without water for house
hold use.
The fire department fortunately
has not yet had an opportunity of
testing the present pressure in a
practical way.

have command. No use fooling
with fellows who can put the ball
over at will-men like Young, Tan
nehill, Orth, Chesbro, etc. There's
no use waiting and batsman will
only get himself in a hole If he
does.
The foul strike has narrowed
the game down to a point where
the least opening can deprive a
team of the game. 1t follows, there
fore. that the responsibilities Of the
umpire are greater by far than ev-
err before. In the old days batting
rallies were nothing unusual. Now
they are exceedingly rare. The
number of small scores increases
and are bound to increase under
the present playing rules"

SPIT BALL AND NC N6 NC NC 6
"The spit ball and foul strike
rule have played havoc with hit
ting" says Fielder Jones, captain
manager of the Chicago Americans
"These two causes have also
brought about a decided change in
the style Of hitting. Before the
foul strike was In vogue left-hand
batsmen tried to hit the ball into
left field. They cannot do that
very well now, for In twinklng
there are two strikes on them and
the pitcher has them in hole.

LINKS.

1t was out on the links that I
met the little party of four. l liked
them all, these children, but the
Princess with the Madonna face,
best.
They were barefooted and brown,
and cheaply clad, even the Prin-
cess, and she, Oh! the tragedy of
it, had a withered leg.

Hurt, and if, when the house was
still at night, there was an acne
and throb and pillow wet with
tears. To me the affliction almost
hid her merry smile and put sad
ness in her laughter.
There was not much dignity in
HEIR suite, this day. The Princess
and her followers were rolling
down a little hill, and at each revo-
luton there was the withered leg
to mark the cripple and tell the
world that for all the hours of a
beautiful life cross must be car
ried, and already God had put the
seal of patience on her dear face.
Would the Princess and suite
lunch with me?
She giggled and said that she
would. A Princess, you know, has
the right to lunch with a stanger
without an introduction. 1t Is a
royal prerogative.

gum for lunch. 1t had to serve for
