orjoin Of the Bakers Dozen.

Some persons, lncluuihS le" en"5
clonaedists, are inclined to think that
the bakers dozen originated when
heavy fines were considered necessary
to counterbalance light weights. and
the bakers, in order to insure full
weight. took the precaution to add an
additional unit Some have called 1t
the devils dozen. becadse thirteen was
the number of witches who used to
ride their broomsticks to the BLACK
Mass" Of Satan. The bakers great
book in Astor Library has another
story Of its origin:
Jan Peterson, of Amsterdam. was
good church man, but nevertheless
he was afraid OF being bewltched. On
the last night of 1864 he sat in his
bakeshoo trying 10 keep out the evil
spirits by priming himself with glass
OF good spirits. Sales had been br.sk.
There were no customers in the shop
for the moment. and he sat back,
meditating on the gains he would
make or the morrow. when the fresh
New Years cakes were put on sale.
He was startled by sudden rap. An
ugly woman pushed the door open.
Give ne dozen New Years
cookies" she cried in shrill voice.
The shrillness of iler voice Gid not
mean anything to his slow Dutch
mind. 1t only annoyed him.
We'll. then, you needn't speak so
loud" said jan I'm not deaf
"A DOZEN" she screamed. Give me
a dozen. Here are only twelve
We'll. then. twelve is Dozen"
"One more! want dozen"
We'll. you will not get it.
The nag left the shop, but from that
night Jan had trouble. The sliop
seemed to be bewitched. His cakes
were stolen. Either his bread was so
light that it scared up the chimney
or 50 heavy that the supports of The
oven gave way beneath the burden
His wife became deaf; his children
wen, wild. His trade took wings and
settled in the shops of his rivals.
Three times the old woman returned,
and each time was directed to the
devils sactum At last. in despair. the
baker called upon St. Nicholas to
assist HIM The venerable patron CT
Dutch reasts delivered lecture on
charity. telling the trembling man TO
be more generous in the future. Then
he vanished and in his place stood the
hag. who repeated her demand for
one more cake. Jan acceded. where
upon she exclaimed, The spell is
broken: from, this time one dozen IS
thirteen" Taking from the counter
a gingerbread efigy of st. Nicholas,
she made the subdued Dutchman lay
his hand upon it and swear TO give
more liberal measure in the future
Since that time thirteen has been
called bakers dozen.

johnson showed a lot Of gameness and
the youngster did not seem to be worried
when things were breaking wrong.
On the defensive both teams played
varied game. Taken as a whole. the
Browns fielding was fast and clean. and
this was especially true when runs threat
ened. Two errors were chalked up. and
one Of them came at a point when il
looked like it would lose the game Jones
made the throw in the seventh inning,
which filled up the bases. but on the other
hand he came right back with a fine play
al the plate.
Johnson made the error himself which
gave St. Louis the chance TO score its
only run. and he was given fine support
in the field by his teammates. nothing
but a phenomenal throw by Ganley in
the Gfth inning shutting off another run
for ST. Louis, when Niles tripled and
tried 10 score on Hemphill's long fly.
