HANDBOOK PRoPRIEToRs IDLE.

Memphis. Tenn. March 1-For the
first time in fifteen years proprietors
of the local handbooks and poolrooms
situated across the river from this city
were forced to an afternoon of idle
ness yesterday and as a result those
with good things to back at the vari-
Gus race tracks We're forced to resort
to use of telegraph to place their ccm-
missions. Many wagers, it was said,
We're sent to Chicago and Texarkana,
the latter place affording only small
opportunity for large bets. The re-
Gently enacted Foust law prevented
anything resembling a bet on horse
racing, whether held in or out Of this
state. The singing CT the Amis bill by
the acting governor of Arkansas caused
the closing of the poolrooms across the
river, usually reached by boats.

Ten Acres Enough.

Many a man who has gone into bust
ness with the notion that he must have
an extensive plant in order to succeed
has found that he has undertaken too
much This was the experience of an
Arkansas farmer who for many years
ftfully TILED a farm Of 200 acres with
out making at any time a comfortable
living. At last he sold the land to five
italian families, who took forty acres
each. A northern traveller who passed
that way and was attracted by the
neatness and evident prosperity OF the
small farms entered into conversation
with one Of the proprietors.
"How much land have your" he
asked.
Forty acres" said the italian.
'Is it all In tillager'
"No. fndeedp' exclaimed the farmer.
"Ten acres are all one man can attend
to. I bonght the rest for my sons"
Ten acres may seem like a small
farm to most Americans, but carefully
cultivated it produced for the Italian
more revenue than 200 had for the pre-.
vious owner.-Youtl's Companion.

Plants That Take pills,

A very large and sturdy orange tree
was growing in small pot. "If that
tree" said the horist, didn't take pills
it would require a pot as big as a
bathtub to grow in. But it takes pills
like q hypochondriac. Chemists. agri-
cultural experts, make plant pills
pills no bigger than chestnuts that con-
tain sustenance for six months, a kind
Of tabloid food. These chemists an
alyze a plants ash and make pills Of
the constituent salts. The pills, IN.
closed In a metal cover, are buried in
the earth at the plants roots, and the
salts gradually dissolve and diffuse
through the metal, giving the plants
day by day the sustenance that they
require. Pills are also applied to weak
sickly plants, which they help wonder
fully"

CUBS BETTER
THAN EVER
Manager Chance Says Op-
ponents Have Not
Strengthened Any.
WILL LEAVE TOMORROW
President Murphy Denies He's Dis.
pleased With Schedule On Con-
trary Is Delighted.

Il think we will have a better team
than ever this season." Captain and
Manager Frank Chance Of the cubs
said yesterday afternoon. i do not
see where any Of our rivals have
especially strengthened themselves"
he continued in musing strain, "or
at least to such a point that we should
be particularly fearful Of our chances
in the race. our team viii be about
the same as last season. OF course
our new men may blossom out into
something fine and dandy and in such
a case we might have to switch things
around some"
Chance arrived in the city early yes
terday morning after a trip across
the continent that had more than its
share Of novelty. The train was over
twelve hours late owing to a burning
bridge But for all that "Husk" said
be enjoyed the ride and did not feel
any i'll effects He spent the winter
at Ocean Park, Cal, and had a long
rest Much Of his time was passed
at the Ascot race track, where he
watched the horses circle the course
and dabbled with small interest in
a book He also played little ball,
did little hunting and cast the hook
for divers specimens of the finny tribe.
Cubs Leave Tomorrow.
The cubs will leave tomorrow MORN
ing at $50 O'Clock and the party Pre- b
ably will be composed Of eight or
nine players Jack Taylor, the veteran
pitcher, will be one of the bunch. He
arrived in the city yesterday morning
from Nelsonville, O., and appears to
be In grand shape. He looks a little
thinner than usual. but says that he
never felt better. He is eager for the
season tc start and believes he still has
numerous victories left IN his power
full arm.
President Charles Webb Murphy of
the cubs arrived in the city yesterday
from New York City, where he has
been attending the schedule meeting of
the National league, Murphy says that
he did not make any howl about the
schedule, as he is delighted with it as
1t stands.
THE first time / heard that ! had
made a fuss about Chicago getting the
raw deal en- the list of games was
when I read it in a New York news
paper Just as I was about to board
train for Chicago. But / am pleased
with the dates. We have fourteen Sun
day games at the west side park,
whereas we had but twelve last sea
son.
Murphy viii install new system Of
turnstiles at the park this year. They
will be regulated SO that they register
up to 100000 and can not be turned
back like those the club has been using.
Then. too. they will be equipped with
an electric apparatus, which registers
in my office at the park the number of
people that enter the different gates,
Murphy said. we also will have an
electric chopper for tickets which has
moter inside and which stamps the
tickets so that they can never be used
again. The ticket Will have the rain
check attached. SO that the old bother
of giving these out win be eliminated

nrevvnter was a nanlx.


Benjamin Harris Brewster, one time
attorney general, was a most unique
character. According to his idea, he
was always faultlessly attired, and his
makeup once seen would never be for
gotten. He usually wore a bell shaped
white silk high hat with long whiskers
on it, plated and frilled white shirt
front with a high standing collar, car
dinal necktie or scarf, buff waistcoat,
maroon colored Prince Albert coat
with gold buttons, yellow trousers,
patent leather shoes and soft frilled
cuffs, which matched his shirt front,
around his wrists. On the thumb of
his left hand was an amethyst ring
encircled with perfectly matched dia-
monds and a bunch Of old fashioned
seals in heavy gold settings dangled
from his watch fob This was his
usual makeup when he attended to
business at his Office, which was in the
old Freedmen's bank building, oppO-
site the treasury department, or visit
ed the United States supreme court to
participate in cases which concerned
the government. His voice was pitch
ed in a high key, and this popularity
was intensified by his sartorial getup,
which always made him conspicuous
at any gathering. Apparently he was
oblivious Of the sensation which his
appearance almost invariably created.

One Of the best and simplest means
Of checking a cold at its onset is to
drink In bed a glass Of hot, not warm,
water in which have been placed the
Juice Of a lemon, three or four Jumps
Of sugar and large teaspoonful Of
pure glycerin. This dose should be
slipped as hot as possible after the pa
tent IS in bed. Taken thus It win
probably induce a flow Of perspiration
which will throw of the cold. The
simplicity Of this remedy is only equal
ed by its great efficacy. As with other
remedies, it's chance of working a com
plete cure is increased if applied at
the beginning Of the complaint.
