It Was the Cause of Airing Family
Secrets In Public.
A young man was riding in an Omni
bus. He took the corner seat and held
in his hand an umbrella which had
been given him as birthday present
On the seat facing him was a lady
with precocious boy, evidently about
five years old.
The youngster regarded the young
man with attention for few moments
and then his eyes wandered TO the
umbrella. He gazed at it In silence fer
a second; then he wriggled in his seat

"Oh, mamma, don't that look IKE pa.

D0LPHINS.
The Species That Play Around the
Shores of Brittany

Shores OF Brittany.
Dolphin hunting as sport Is old to
the Malouins. the inhabitants Of St.
Malo. Several species Of dolphins are
to be met with near the shores OF Brit
tany. The largest is known to science
as Delphinus delphis and differs from
other varieties by its long jaws, very
like the beak of big bird, and armed
with about sixty teeth as hard and
sharp as steel. It's length may reach
nine feet, and it weighs from 800 to
400 pounds. A swift swimmer, 1t

quently amuses itself by playing
around ships in the open sea. Then
there is the Delphinus tursio, or souf-
f1eur. This is smaller, and its beak is
shorter. though armed with strong.
powerful teeth that enable it to attack
a big fish. pinning it down to the rocks
with such force that its nose is often
deeply marked with numerous cuts.
This dolphin hates the very sight Of a
ship and never comes close to one.
Finally there Is the porpOise, or mar
couin, the smallest species OF the
genus. Much sport may be obtained
by hunting these various dolphins.-

The Ancient ston. sIino.r.,

1t has been said that Asiatie nations
excelled others in the use Of the sling,
and the singers Of an ancient army
used their little weapons with terrible
effect. These natives have such skill, :"
says one old historian, that it very
rarely happens that they miss their
aim. What makes them so great in
the use Of the sling Is the training CIV
en- them from their earliest years by
their mothers, who set up 4 piece OF
bread hung at the end Of a rod for a
target and let their children remain
without food until they have hit it,
when the child who IS the victor re-
ceives the bread as the reward Of his
skill and patience"

GOOD PINCH HITTERS ON
AMERICAN LEAGUE TEAMS
Every Club Has One or More Batters
Who Are Feared by oppos-
= Ing Pitchers.

Every ball club in the American
league has one or two batters who are
always feared by the opposing pitch
ers. They are the men whom the
,twirlers hate to see step to the plate
in q pinch.
Detroit has q quartet Of men In
Cobb, Crawford, Rossman and McIn-
tyre, who can swat the ball, but Cobb
and Crawford are most feared. Craw-
ford is the slugger of the bunch, and
is liable to break up game with a
home run as often as with single
or double. Cobb is feared not only
on account of his ability to hit, but
also because of his great speed after
he gets on the sacks. While Cleveland
has several hitters who are liable to
break up the game at any time, no one
is feared more than Lajoie. When
the big second sacker assumes his po-
sition at the plate the pitcher begins
to worry and incidentally puts every
thing in stock on the ball. George
Stovall, Harry Bemis and Elmer Prick
also look pretty nifty to the big league
twirlers.
Bullet Jack" Thorney OF Boston was
the most touted man on the Red Sox
team, but no one was more respected
by the beavers than doc" Gessler.
Against Washington Gessler was par
ticularly destructive, winning four
games from the Senators whom 1t looked
as If Cantillon's bunch was sure
to cash. Jake Stahl managed to win
a few games by timely hitting.
Jim Delehanty did the best work for
the Washington team with the big
stick, while Charley Hemphill Of the
Highlanders and Isbell of Chicago
were the two players on their teams
most feared. Anderson and Laporte
batted well against St Louis and
Fielder Jones, while not q good hitter,
always had the faculty Of working a
pitcher.
George Stone of St Louis wasn't
quite so dangerous last year, but new
krtheless all twirlers were happy when
Stone was disposed of and on the
bench. Roy Hartzell came into his
own, and while subbing at short for
Wallace his timely hitting was the
means Of sending the locals to the top.
Big Criss was the batting kid for ST.
Louis last year, and strangely enough
his greatest work was done as pinch
hitter, for he seldom broke into a
game as a regular. Wallace, Will
liams and Ferris broke up many games
but Tom Jones failed to shine in the
pinches.
= While Harry Davis of the Athletics
is the slugger of Connie Mack's crew
since Sox Seybold went out of com
mission, young Eddie Collins proved
about as troublesome as any of the
Philadelphians last year, especially
when In the pinches, while Dan Muir
ply was considered dangerous.
