Waddell Pitches Great Ball.

ST. LOUIS. July 12.-Philadelphia de-
feated St. Louis in twelve inning yesterday.
The game was a pitchers battle from
start to finish. and victory was only regis
tered by the Athletics through the sensa-
tionai pitching of "Rube'' Waddell.
The eccentric southpaw didn't start the
game. He wasn't brought into play until
the seventh inning. He was substituted
for Dygert in that round when the Browns
with single run behind. had a man on
second and no one down.
Waddell occupied the mound just six
innings. In that period he gave but three
singles and famed nine men. a wonderful
record. For the final, just to show what
he could do. he famed Hemphill, Stone and
Pickering in succession. Score:

That Is Unique.

In London there is college for
working women, the aim of which Is
to supply women occupied during the
day with higher education than is
generally within their reach. The
whole of the teaching staff is unpaid,
and the college, which has existed for
80 years, owes It's being and its pres
ent success to Miss Frances Martin,
who is its honorary secretary, and
In connection with the college there
is a benefit club, penny bank and
the rooms in the college for reading
and refreshment practically make 1t
delightful clubhouse for girls who are
engaged during the day. There are
several social clubs, and during the
winter monthly dances and Dorcas
meetings are held, says the Chicago
Daily News. The special classes in
ambulance and dressmaking are ex-
ceedingly popular with the members
and in the former subject at the last
examination every one of the candi-
dates succeeded in taking her certi-
fcate.
A woman giving the name of Ander-
son, which name, however. is prob
ably fictitious, attempted to desert
her three weeks old babe in Webster
City Wednesday, leaving it at the
Travellers Home boarding house
where she was staying. She was IN
tercepted in nearby town where she
expected soon to board train for
Minneapolis, where she said she re.

Just a short time prior to giving birth
to the child and went to ST. Joserh's

born.
She claims that her husband de-
serted her several months ago.

Chaucer was Cockney; he had his
