MIR. Crocker called Alfred for some
questioning, and in his absence Miss
Hamilton turned to Stella. I'm
afraid I'm monopolizing this oppor
tunity, Miss Anthony. It's my first
visit you know"
ut is my first visit here, also" Stel
la replied
your flrst?" Miss Hamilton's eyes
opened wide with not too civil ques
tion. oh" she laughed, "if you live
here and don't care enough to come
and see these wonderful things
shan't let my conscience sit UP nights
over my monopoly of Mr.. Vincent
and the conversation" She turned to
smile at Alfred reappearing, and Stel
la was without opportunity to explain
that, despite enthusiasm and apprecia-
tlon, the railroad grade was not a
proper promenade for a girl alone.
The young people Jagged in spite OF
the call of the leaders and arrived at
the camps to find them already alive
with men and beasts.
"Oh, | must see the Chinese camps
Miss Hamilton cried i've heard of
them"
They were in time to see the cooks
serving from great cauldrons to each
man his little keller full OF boiling
water. There was also an array of big
black pots simmering over camp fires,
yet white and savory messes were
within, announced by attractive odors.
What do they do with those little
tubs?" Miss Hamilton asked, as she
saw the coolies disappear within tents
or brush shacks.
Each man takes hot sponge bath
and dresses in clean clothes before
he eats"
"Is to-day any special occasion?"
she questioned, wonderingly.
"They do that every night in the
year. They never sup in their work
ing clothes"
What an example to Americans!
My respect for the disciples of Con
fucius has risen to hundred"
She wished to stay to see the yel-
low men in dinner dress" squatting
with their little bowls and chop-sticks,
chattering over their "licey;" but her
uncle sent back second hurrying
summons that held a note Of impa-
tience; and Stella pushed ahead with
sure steps, following her temporary es-
cort But Miss Hamilton, unused to
rough going, and in spite of Alfred's
watchfulness, turned her ankle and
arrived at the road pale and weak
with pain, leaning heavily on his arm.
Yet her gay bravery deceived her
uncle, though she clasped Stella's ex,
tended hand sharply as the two men
lifted her into the coach.
1t was quite dark when they drove
up into the hotel brilliance. Stella
alighted after the others; yet she
heard Miss Hamiltons graceful thanks
to Alfred, saw the lingering hand
shake, the appeal in her eye, while she
leaned upon her uncle's arm.
Sally b. came out to meet them /;
and the lantern swinging in the even
ing breeze threw fantastic, dancing
shadows on the group. Suddenly Stel-
la felt out of it all, remote; for Alfred,
lifting his hat impressiyely, backed
away from the open door and did not
see her standing in the shadow, alone.

there is very hattering. The
makeup of the circuit in the
Ohio State league pleases the fans
and in President Quinn everybody
feels that the league has just the
man to push it to the front. The
men signed for the local team to
date are: Homer Mock, Lam
caster, Bud Scanlan, Toledo, Ed.
Hill, New Madison, w. b. Under
wood, Columbus, pitchers; Floyd
Turner, Shawnee, Frel Quinn,
Congo, w. J. Williams, New

Charles Young, Colum bus, out

players, including manager,
have accepted terms and contracts
have been sent.
Sunday base ball in Chester is
permitted by decision h anded
down by Judge Nesbitt, of Wheel.
ing, and which will prove boom
to the Ohio and Pennsylvania
league. 1t is at Chester where
the East Liverpool club will play
the game this year.
The court took up an injunction
against Charles w. Bippus, which
was asked for by some claw and
ORDER people last Summer, when
the Sharon team played the only
Sunday game at Chester.
The court, in it's opinion, de
creed, "The injun ction against
Charles Bippus and others is modi-
fed to the extent that base ball
may be played on Sunday If no
noise is made sufficient to cause a
nuisance p"
The decision is considered a
great victory for those who are
backing the Ohio and Pennsyl-
vanla club at East Liverpool.
The new rule prohibiting the
pitcher from wasting time by rub
bing new balls in the grass or dirt
to remove the gloss was obtained
simply by striking out Shree
words, Except the pitcher, in
the rule which was in force last
year. The amended rule reads as
follows:
Gin the event of ball being in.
tentionally discolored by rubbing
it with the soil or otherwise dam
aged by any player, the umpire
shall, upon appeal by the captain
of the opposite side, forthwith de-
mand the return of that ball, and
substitute for it another legal ball,
as hereinbefore described, and i'm
pose fine of IS on the offending
player"
The new balls which will be used
this season are regulation in every
respect except the leather cover
has not been pressed until 1t is
shiny and slippery. 1t will be a
relief to the fans to no longer sill
and wait while the pitcher poses
in the middle of the diamond in
the attitude of scrub woman.

MERRY WIDOW HAT JUST THE

1T reduces to a minimum the uselesss slaughter of nnoce birds which have been
endowed with beautiful plumage. Indeed, 1 think the prdhest trimming Tor a
Merry Widow" hat is a simple band of ribbon. Some girls poke a long quill
through the crow and get a pretty effect, but that is getting dangerously near
to the despoiaion of he birds an 1 al opposed to that
Hats used for shading HI face are sensible. an that is essentially the

Hast thou no mixing of the fate be-

OF who shall envy and who shall adore
thee?
Or who the dirty Pi-Ute ruling DER
thee?
Die young, for heavens sakel If thou
grow older
Thou shalt get lean of calf and sharp

And daily greedier and daily holder.
Just such another as the dam who
bore thee.

oh, die of something fatal, I implore
thee!

Say in a score or two of generations
We two may swap respective hues and
stations?
Methinks I see thee suddenly grow

Let subtle Nature seize me then and
rack me,
Big "Diggers'' whack me and misfor-
tune hack me,
And anguish hoist me to her highest
acme.
Withhold from me thine incidental
curses,
Nor spare the smallest of thy scanty
mercies;
But put me NOTCH, put me not in

warning,
Alike philosophy and kisses scorning.
