Gossip:

The death Of Ezra Sutton a few
days ago in private hospital near
Boston removed from the scene OF his
triumphs on the baseball field one
more Of the veteran players who
helped make the national pastime IA
nous in its younger days. Sutton was
one Of he first and best third base
men OF a quarter of a century ago,
and attracted attention first while
playing on the old Forest City team
of Cleveland in the early '70s. His
greatest reputation was won, however,
on the Boston National league team
from 1877 to 1888, for which he played
third base uninterruptedly during that
period Of II years Sutton was a ma.
tive Of New York state and was 81
years old when he died. For the last
six years the veteran player had been
victim of locomotor ataxia and a
great sufferer. Only a fortnight be.
fore his death he expressed a desire
to see another baseball game before
his death, a desire which it was i'm.
possible to grant. One fact is i'm.

the fans drop off now and then and
recall the days of their prowess infre

to-day's ball players will be called to
account for their earthly deeds. Then
there will be a decision of the old
argument. There may not be greater
stars on the diamond today than
there were years ago, but there are
more of them that will require obit

The Raven.

Many birds seek the protection which
the presence of man affords against
furred and feathered foes when the
breeding season approaches. Not so
the raven. Its distrust Of US Is pro-
found, and it's nest is placed In some
wild spot far out of reach Of our pos
sible attack or succor. But there are
other enemies. l know of a pair that
built on the side of a projecting crag
high up on the cliffs OF Rathline island
Some fierce peregrine falcons occupied
the other side OF the crag, and when
one day their eggs were taken by an
adventurous collector they. sharing the
popular opinion of a ravens blackness,
concluded that their neighbors were
the offenders and wreaked their grief
and vengeance upon them. When, on
their return from a foraging expedi.
ton, the falcons found their nest de-
spoiled they were seen to hold a con.
sultatiOn, and after much elaboration
they suddenly arose and both in one
accord few at the ravens nest and

Indignation until not one stick was left

A Grnat catnhar.

Here Is n play which Is vOuched for
by two old ball players who saw II
come Off and admitted to be true by
the victim of the catch, big EN- Gross,
once the star catcher OF the National
league and perhaps the heaviest hit
ting catcher that ever dOnned a glove.
EN- was a great catcher, a wonderful
thrower and a grand hitter, but he had
his weakness, and that was in catching
foul flies. Some facetious writer In
those days remarked that Em couldn't
see the high ones In daytime.
He tried for everything In sight, ran
circles around the ball and sometimes
speared il, but he never felt at ease
when one of those tall twisting fouls
went up.
He was catching In Providence one
day when a Philadelphia batter poked
up a fly that looked 500 feet high.
There was a wind blowing, and the
ball began to twist around In circles,
with EN- doing merry -gO-round under
II. Finally, seeing that it was escap-
ing, he made desperate effort to turn
quickly and fell fat on his back.
Instinetively he threw up his feet
ana hands to protect his face. The
ball struck the sole Of his shoe, bound
ed up Into the afr, and as it fell again
EN- reached out and caught It.
And the next morning Providence's
papers had the nerve TO say be did II
on purpose.-Chicago Tribune

The Sun, the Moon and the Tide..


Most persons suppose that the moon
alone Is responsible for the phenOme.
non of tides, but the attraction of the
sun is also an important factor. OF
course the distance of the sun from the
earth Is unthinkably greater than that
of the moon, but It's mass is 80 enor.
nous that 1t has a considerable tide pro
ducing influence. The force which the
sun exerts is the same on both sides OF
the earth at the same time, the tide
producing force Of the great orb being
about four-tenths that Of the moon. AT
the time Of both new and full moons
the ''wane spheroids produced by both
the sun and the moon have their axes
coincident"-that is to say, the two
great orbs unite their energies on the
fluids OF our planet, and as a result the
tides are higher than the average for
the remaining portions Of the month.
These are the Spring tides" The
''neap tides" come In the time of the
moons first and third quarter and are
not as great as the average, because
the moon and the sun are each working
in opposition to the other.

The Finger Nails.

A nailbrush should be medium, bris-
ties neither too stiff nor too soft. IL It
is used every time the hands are wash
ed, there will be no need for the usual
digging under the nails with a sharp
instrument A blunt pointed orange
wood stick is the best, but bit OF soft
old linen used on one hand with the
nails Of the other should be sufficient
1t is the use Of hard steel points on
the nails under and around them that
makes them all the harder TO keep
clean because they are roughened. As
little polishing powder should be used
as possible. It has the effect Of max
ing the nails thin and brittle.

It was in ancient Egypt that the story
of Cinderella originated. Moderns,
however, owe the familiar nursery
story directly to the Frenchman,
Charles Perrault, whose ''Cindrillon"

from earlier versions, which came no
