ST. LOUIS, May 13.-"Say, Vic,
these biscuits is fierce" declared
Mrs. Victor Johnson as she at
tempted to down specimen Of her
husbands cooking. AS a result OF
Johnson's failure to reach his wife's
standard of what biscuits should be.
the Johnsons have separated and
suit for divorce on the wife's
behalf is pending in the courts.
According to Mrs. Johnson's COM
plant, not only were the biscuits
soggy and sour, but the coffee was
bitter and the eggs fried in too
much lard.
Johnson insisted on performing
the homework and doing the cook
ing, and finally demanded that his
wife seek work in order to supply
them with materials for his expert
ments in the kitchen. This was
the last straw, and the wife REBEL
ed by filing suit for divorce.

ELBERFELD SWATS
UMPIRE TIM

The big topic of conversation in
New York sporting circles Is the
fight between Tim Hurst, one of
Ban Johnson's umpires. and kid"
Elberfeld of the New York Ameri-
cans, which took place at American
league park.
Elberfeld slid into the plate on q
long fly and thought he was safe.
Hurst said out. Elberfeld lost con-
troll of himself and began to poke
his finger against Hurst's chest
protector, while handing out long
line of talk reflecting upon the UNI
pire's eyesight. Hurst finally lost
his temper and slapped Elberfeld
in the jaw.
Elberfeld started to draw his
hand back to smash the umpire,
but walked away. The incident was
closed in a second or two, but it In
reported that Elberfeld is to be
suspended by the league officials.

BY TIP WRIGHT.

Frank Chance, leader of the
worlds champion Cubs, agrees with
me that base ball spikes should be
abolished.
The peerless leader" gave a
demonstration of this truth in the
last game Pittsburg played in Chi
cago. when he refrained from hit
ting the dirt" and going into the
plate feet first, because he might
spike Catcher Gibson.
Had Chance been like many an
other player. he would not have
given the question of injury a
thought, but would have thrown
himself upon the ground and slip
ped over the plate. Possibly his
steel-shod hoofs would have ripped
open Gibson's anatomy, but the run
would have been scored.
But Chance, who is admittedly
one of the greatest players I'm the
game, does not believe it necessary
to put a good man out of the game
that his own teams chances may
be improved,
Every base ball critic who saw
Chance go into Gibson standing
agreed that he would have been
safe had he hit the dirt" because
the throw to the plate was high.
and a run would have won the
game. But they also pointed out
that had Chance slid. he would in
all probability have spiked the
catcher.
Now that's what call decent
base ball.
Unquestionably one of the most
spectacular and thoroughly enjoy
able features of the national game
is a base stolen. after a well eX-
ecuted slide, In which the clever
ness of the runner earns the base.
But let The runners go in head first.
or if they must slide feet first, let
them use somthing besides the steel
spikes-something that will not
main and cripple.
| want to call your attention to
something you may not have no
ticed. It's the ball players ankles.
No one realizes more keenly than
do the players, the danger they run
from spikes, so they do everything
possible to prevent blood poison
ing.
The stockings they wear are foot
less. Instead of feet, they have a
narrow strap, which fits the ball of
the foot, leaving the foot uncov-
cred. AS a foot covering they wear
generally, white linen socks under
the stocking, so that should they
be spiked, the heavy, colored stock
ing will not be forced INTO their
flesh and add to the danger of the
spikes.
