Paris Team Showing Some Speed

The daily practice work Of the Paris
base ball team is bringing the men
around in playing form, taking out the
kinks and rendering the players ready
for battle when the gong sounds for
play on the afternoon Of April q,
when the league season opens ct Win
chester with the "Bourbonites" as the
attraction.
Both morning and afternoon the
players go through a,vigOrous work out
under the direction of Manager Elgin,
and are gradually eliminating the sore
arms and stiffened joints occasioned by
practice work. Batting, bunting and
throwing the ball. clever pick-ups of
hot grounders, fast running in the out
field for high flies and quick, snappy
infeld work in throwing men out at
the bases characterizes the hours of
practice work, with an unusually large
number of enthusiastic fans who daily
visit the ball park as spectators.
The grand stand, bleachers and fenc-
ing around the enclosure have been
finished and everything is in apple pie
order for the first game of the season
when Shelbyville opens Oh Friday,
| April 30, for series of three games.
In the meantime practice work will be
pushed vigorously while several eXhi-
bitinnz games will be played, the first
being with the strong college team of
NJ. M. |. at Millersburg tomorrow.
The following is the probable lineup
of the team: Bardo 2b: Reed, If
flanagan, 3b; Key, IF; Parrish, Id
Bell, SIS; Fleming or King, RI; Elgin
or Graham, c; O'Oonnell or Robert
son, p. Manager EIgin is going to
make strong fight to trounce the
strong M. M. [. team who heretofore
has been having everything their own
way in walloping other teams. and ex-
poets his men to play with unusual
dash and vim.
The first exhibition game on the
home grounds will be Wednesday
April Il when the team from State
! University In Lexington will cross bats
with the home boys. The lineup OF
the team will be the same as that al
MilIersburg. except O'Donnell will
play right field and Fleming, Quinlan
and Dupre will do the twirling. The
game with the University boys will be
the means of putting the Paris team
to the test and the individual playing
ability of the members brought out.

When President Taft Will =
Be just n13VvilIie" Again

LOS ANGELES, Sept. IA
Suppose you were president of
the United States.
Suppose you had a chance to
visit little, uncovered cottage
where you could keep your en-
gagements by the same old clock
that was ticking off the seconds
when you were born; where you
could sleep on the same old bed
where as lad you dreamed of
fighting Indians or of the great
things you were going to do when
you were a man; where you could
eat at the same old table under
which you used to kick your
heels while you slowed away your
5 O'Clock bread and milk in the
days when you were just will
lie"-
Say, wouldn't that just natural
ly skin the White House to death?
That is what is in store for
President Taft when he visits Los
Angeles next month. The presi-
dent is to be the guest of his only
sister, Mrs. DR.. w. A. Edwards,
at her pretty rustic home on West
Adams street.
He will find himself surrounded
by many boyhood friends, old
family heirlooms. The tall, sedate
old clock in the Edwards hall,
which first belonged to the grand
mother of the president, once
stood in the hall of the old Taft
residence in Cincinnati, where it
marked the hour of the birth of
the baby who was to become the
nations chief executive.
The bedroom which Taft will
occupy in Los Angeles is fur
nished with pieces which he knew
we'll when he was boy. There
is the old four-poster which was
in his own room in Cincinnati,
and there are the old-fashioned,
handmade lace curtains at the
indows, still good after rs years
of service.
Once upon a time, on very es-
pecial occasions, little Willie Taft,
elevated on his chair by the fam
lily dictionary, was allowed to sit
at the big" table with the
"grown-ups" at dinner. OF course,
the family dictionary is not nee
essary now, but at the Edwards
dinner table Taft will find the
same old table and the same old
chairs, and no doubt he will act
very much like the same old boy.
For presidents, when the big, crit
ical world isn't watching, are not
very much different in their emo
lions from other folks, you know.
There is just chance, too, that
President Taft will eat his dinner
from the same plate that used to

Nordica has words of Praise for
Blind California Girl Who, I'm

Creates Strange Sweet MeIo-

OAKLAND, CAL, Sept. IL
Under the mystic influence of
moonbeams which filter through
her sightless eyes, Miss Ada G.
Byrdges has created songs of such
exquisite harmony that Madame
Nordica has predicted that the
blind songstress will some time be
famous for her musical creations.
"The little song bird hidden
among the hills of California" was
what the great singer said of her
after listening to one of the songs
which the blind singer had COM
posed.
The song she sang for Nordica
was only one Of a hundred which
she has created during long even
ings spent on the porch of her
mothers vine-clustered cottage
in East Oakland. There. almost
any moonlight night, she may be
seen sitting where the bright
white rays play full upon her up
turned face, while she weaves
wondrous musical gems OF the

LAUzON is
OUT $500

BY the city buying cooking
utensils to show the people with
a view to increasing the use of
electricity for cooking and then
refusing to allow the city to con-
tinue in the sale of the appli-
ances, City Electrician Lauzon
has gotten into a dispute with the
factory and he is out about $500.
The goods were turned over to
A. z. Smith to sell. Finally the
bills from the General Electric
company for the goods came in,
and the commissioners office
wanted to know where the goods
were. Lauzon finally put up
$199.S1 Of his own money to pay
for them, and now he will have
to collect it from Smith.

EYES OUT, BEAR
CHARGES ON
HUNTERS

HUSUM, Sept. Ito kill a
large black bear with a shotgun
is not a sure thing in this valley.
The Sellinger brothers of Trout
Lake were out hunting for small
game a few days ago and sat
down for a rest on top of bluff.
A black bear, weighing about $50
pounds, suddenly made its APP
pearance from behind large
boulder, not 80 feet from the
when Ben Sellinger
blazed away point blank at the an
imal, putting out both his eyes.
But the bear still advanced, and
after emptying their pump guns
the hunters made tracks for a
place of safety. They procured
rifles and killed the bear.

romance which is denied her be-
cause of her affliction.
81 can feel the moonlight" she
explains, seriously, lust as clear
ly as you can see it,"
Notwithstanding that prominent
musical critics have urged her
to publish her songs, Miss Byrdges
has refused to do SO.
Some day l will, but not now"
she says. 81 am selfish, maybe,
but let me enjoy them alone for
"a while. They are all 1 have"
Recently a tempting salary was
offered her to render her songs
before the public. She refused.
For then" said she, 81 would be
unable to sit in the moonlight any
more. The moon would not shine
for me anywhere else like it does
in California.
Miss Byrdges has studied music
since child. She is now 25 years
old. Her father was William Cas-
tel Byrdges, famous old-time
minstrel. In addition to her rare
temperament, the young woman
possesses splendid technique. and
her touch is such that one promi-
nent critic who heard her play
said:
''Her fingers leave kiss on
avery key"
