ARE SENT BLANKS
High School Track Athletes Are
Urged to Enter in Two Big
Field Meets.
MAY TRY SPEED IN BOTH
Men to Compose Team Are Not Yet
Selected-tiOod Material from
Which to Choose.

Blanks have been received for en-
at Keokuk May and Champaign May
%. 1t has not been fully decided yet
whether teams will be entered at both
of these meets or not, but it is reas-
onably sure that team will be sent
to one place or the other Trainer
Sinnit has not yet picked the regular
team but will do so in the near future.
The team, however, can be picked
without much trouble Arthur Drips
can take care of the mile, half mile
and 440 yard dash easily. Brennan
and Lift will see that the weights
have their full share in the meet while
Lift alone will manage the high jump
and pole vault. Brennan will probably
do the broad jumping.
Sprinters Not Decided.
Whether Ohlweiler or Steenburg will
me picked for the sprints is an open
question to be decided by the coach.
Through some disagreement with the
class Steenburg refused to run for the
juniors in Saturdays class meet and
as result the class lost the meet He
is fast in the sprints and may be
chosen. Ohlweiler, too. has good
show for the team due to his showing
Saturday.
The meet with Moline promises 70
be very close and exciting. Each has
a few stars and the contest will DC
really between these few men. How
ever Rock Island figures at present or
victory. The Moliners, of course, dr
not see it that way yet.

been pleased if he had been able to
farm him out SO that he could re-
claim him if he was ever needed,
but farming out is slow proposition
and he did not wish to keep Edwards
until after the season has opened in
earnest and so prevent him from
landing a good job.

FAIL TO MAKE
IT INTERESTING
Ottumwa Central Association
Team Easily Defeated by
the Islanders.
HARDIN'S SPEED BATTLES
Whiffs IL Visitors-LOcals Fall Upon
PIympton'S Offerings and Chase
Him to Bench.

Ottumwa failed to make things very
interesting for the islanders yesterday
and the locals won by a score of 8 to
Is. Because of the rainy outlook, only
a few of the faithful were out to see
the game. Hardin was the principal
reason for Ottumwa's downfall, al
though his clever twirling would not
have won the game without the timely
and hard hitting of his teammates.
Only three hits were gathered in off
his delivery, and one of them Ottum-
wa did not earn, as it came as the re-
suit of Mcbride having the misfortune
to slip and fall in the grass while run
ming to get under the ball. Mac would
have reached it easily had it not been
| for the fall, and the result would have
been two less scores for Ottumwa and
total of but two hits. Hardin used
| his speed, and on a dark day like yes
iterday. the batters could hardly see
the ball as it came over the plate. He
caused Is of the opposing batsmen to
fan the atmosphere thrice in their vain
attempts to locate the sphere.
! Score on Hit and Two Sacrifices.
The visitors scored their first run
in the second inning on a two-sacker
| by Cavanaugh and sacrifice hits by
Brand and Fennell From thei on UNI
til the eighth inning there was nothing
in either their run or hit column, and
then came the three Dagger which Mac
slipped up on, and as it was preceded
by hit, one run came in, and a mo-
ment later the man who poled the
triple, Feeney, came home while
| Reeves was thrown out at first
The Islanders took liking to Plymp
tons curves in the fourth inning and
three hits were secured, one of them
Ibeing a three-sacker by Wise, who was
used at short yesterday while Berger
lis nursing his sore foot. Vogel's being
hit with pitched ball and an error
by the Ottumwa center fielder aided
i'll the run getting. In the sixth the
lead was increased by two more runs
Jacobsen drew a hit, his second in the
game out of three times up, and went
to second on the bum throw made by
the pitcher in trying to catch him of
first. MelOan's out at first advanced
Jake TO third, and after being hit by
a pitched ball, pilfered second. Muir
lphy then drove out a three-bagger thai
nearly went to the river, and the two
base runners tailed.
/ Then the killing.
In the next round a great slaughter
took place. Three hits, an error and {
sacrifice fly brought in four runs, max
ing the Islander total ., where it re
manned until the game was over. Nc

The Appleton, Wis. team is due
tomorrow and the showing made by
the locals against them will furnish
more food for a comparison of Dav-
export and Rock Island, as Appleton
is scheduled to play double header
today with Pa Shaffer's prodigals
The two teams were to meet across
the creek yesterday, but they were
frightened by the rain which fell in
the early afternoon and the game
was postponed until this afternoon
Tomorrow afternoon, Appleton comes
to this city.
The Ottumwa team is opposing the
Islanders this afternoon and Tfghe
has assigned Frank Lakaff to do the
honors on the slab. Jacobsen will
form the other half of the battery.
in order to let Gus Eng rest up and
get his $4,000 whip in shape. Jack
has about decided to use each of the
three pitchers whom it is felt will be
released first, in the games this week
Chief Eastman, who has been work
ing like trojan to get into condition
will very likely be given the first
chance. Chief is good twirler and
when he is at his best, he is good
enough for any team in the minors.
Howard is another who requires
warm weather and lots of it to show
his real form and this handicaps
him.
Wants Players.
The Appleton manager is looking
for an outtielder and pitcher to add
to his team before he can be happy
| and he has written to Tighe and ask
| ed him If he has any such men to
spare. Jack can fit him out pretty
well alright if the Appleton club can
pay the fiddler, as he has several
| twirlers whom he would like to see
placed well, and also an outfielder who
| is deserving of a good place. IL may
| be that sale will be arranged while
| the Appleton team is here.

PERSEVERANCE,.

A swallow in the spring
Came to our granary, and meath the
caves
Essayed to make a nest, and there
did bring
Wet earth and straw and leaves.
Day after dag she toiled
With patient art. but ere her work
was crowned,
Some sad mishap the tiny fabric
spoiled,
And dasned it TO the ground.
She found the ruin wrought,
But, not cast down, forth from the
place she few,
And with her mate fresh earth and
grasses brought
And built her nest anew.
But scarcely had she placed
The last soft feather on its ample
floor,
When wicked hand. or chance, again
laid waste
And wrought the ruin Ger.
But still her heart she kept.
And toiled again, and last night
hearing calls,
looked-and 10! three little swal
lows slept
Within the earth made walls.
What truth is here, o man!
Hath hope been smitten in it's early
dawn
Have clouds o'ercast thy purpose,
trust, or plan?
Nave faith, and struggle on!

The 1eIltaie Hand,

A writer In an English weekly de-
clares that If we want to know what
the other person is thinking we must
look at his or her hands, Even un-
practiced lips can lie, as every one
knows Long practice in self control
will enable one to keep ones voice
sweetly cordial when there is nothing
but Indifference or cold dislike behind
1t. The eyes can be made to shoot
chances which are not at all a register
for the emotions. But the hands, it is
asserted, are utterly beyond the con-
troll Of those to whom they belong.
Even people who hardly gesticulate at
all-and to keep the hands still is con-
sidered by the Anglo-Saxon a most es-
sential part of good breeding-even
these people are, it seems, constantly
revealing themselves in little move
ments of the hands. The immortal Null
vaney has put it on record that a wo-
mans truth or untruth can be dis
cerned by the action of her hands. OF
course 1t takes practiced reader to
interpret what the hands are saying.
1t Is not case of "he who runs NAV
read"

fastinu In Japan.


From time out Of mind, says the ia
pan Times, certain devotees Of that
country have visited a celebrated tenn
pie at Martha twice a year to perform
the pious act Of fasting within it's sa-
cred precincts. A fasting hall' has
been specially erected for their accom-
mediation. Observations kept on 226
men and 80 women who tasted showed
that or the whole number SO tasted less
than week. 174 tasted one week, 10
continued fasting two weeks, II tasted
three weeks. and one went without
food for five weeks. Inquiry as to the
motives Of the fasters showed that 169
men and IS women desired to rise in
the world, Is men and women want
ed to Increase their business profits. 16
men prayed for the safety Of their fam
lilies. IL men and 4 women sought cures
or diseases and 10 men wanted general
good luck. Only three persons, two
men and one woman, tasted in graft
tude for the fulfillment Of former pray
ers. 1T need scarcely be said," re-
marks the Japan Times, that the peri
cd Of their fasting was the shortest"

Odd Contrasts In Climate.

New York is usually thought Of as
being directly west from London. It
Is, however, despite it's far more rigor
Gus climate, 900 miles nearer the equa.
tor than is the British capital. The
bleak coast Of Labrador is directly
west of London. The same line passes
the southern part Of Hudson bay and
Lake Winnipeg On the other side of
the continent it touches the southern
extremity of Alaska and continues
through the center of the isthmus Of
Kamchatka and Siberia and Russia to
Homburg.
1t Is astonishing. too, to reflect on
the fact that Montreal, with its win
tiers Of extraordinary severity, is $50
miles nearer the equator than is Lon
don. Montreal. indeed, is on the same
degree Of latitude as Venice.
Another illustration of the unexpect-
ed In contrasts is found in a compari-
son of st. Johns, Newfoundland, with
Paris. Paris has winter of compare
tive mildness,- while st. Johns is a re-
gion of bitter cold and fogs, with drift
Ing icebergs along its, coast = Yet St.
Johns Is 100 miles nearer the equator

Queer Eurs.

"This is cat fur" said a furrier
1--WE use 1t for Innings. An excellent
lining cat fur makes too. Dogs, calves
colts, coons, opossums, bats, rats-any
animal that wears fur, in fact, is sala-
BILE In the fur market. Bat hair is
felted up with other stuff into an imi-
tat1on skin. 1t is also used, I believe.
IN rope plating. The dog, the coon
and the oposs1m yield fur that, prop.
erly treated, makes a very handsome
lining. Rat skins are employed in GER
tain delicate repairs, and they also
serve to form the thumbs Of cheap
gloves. A queer thing about the fur
business Is that the furs must be taken
IN the dead Of winter. The trapper
must work under the cruelest climatic
conditions. Only thus is the fur at it's
best. The dresser, on the other hand,
who could work best in cold weather.
must do all his work in the heat Of
summer or otherwise he would not be
able to keep up with the changing
fashions. "-Exchange.
