Rowing
Loose Fielding
At C,icket G. me

There was one thing that struck
the spectators at the recent cricket
match at Makiki, and that was the
superiority of the baseball section OF
the players over the regular cricket
ers at fielding and running after the
ball.
The diamond men were keen on
the propositions from the start. and
the way Paul Burns felded every
thing that came close enough and
the dashing way he went after the
wide ones and returned them to the
wicket keeper or bowler was q
treat to watch.
The baseball man can pick up q
ball In All-England style. and with
the same swing Of his arm throw
the ball home. The regular men,
maybe, do not get as much prac-
tice as Burns does at juggling with
G ball, but they could certainly
chase a ball that has gone through
their legs. as II they realized that
the second run must be stopped at
sny rate.
Cricket in this town seems to be
played more with the Idea that bat
ting Is the only thing worth bother
ing about, and consequently the
bowling and fielding departments do
not get as much attention us they
should.
or course there are exceptions.
and some of the players do well in
all the branches OF the game. but.
taken as u whole. the fielding is only
half hearted and the errors are
numerous.
And once a ball has passed fields.
man, why does he not emulate the
ball player and go after II like
well, anything? II is the prevent
able runs which are scored by the
other side that lose many game.

That is all-go!"
She went a few steps; then turned
about, like lightning, and something
whizzed through the air, and stuck In
the wall Of the library, just behind
Mrs. Steele's head.
A pair of scissors, long, bright and
sharp as needles. The two murder

work not an inch from the housekeep-

uttered cry-whether Of fear or an

already darted by me, and was gone
!up the stair. Colonel Rivers arose to
his feet.
"a very narrow escape, Mrs. Steele,
he said, lightly, as he pulled the scis-
sors from the wall: "but miss Is as
good as a mile. That girl has bad blood
in her veins. II did not pity her be-
cause Of her hereditary taint, would
not retain her another hour in my
wards service"
Startled, shocked, I turned from my
post Of observation and fled to the gar
den. What was the mystery hanging
about poor Jael? What the heredita-
ry taint that the colonel had mention
ed? Plainly the girl hated Mrs. Steele
even more than I did. With my mind
full Of her dark, sullen looks, strolled
down to the gate at Wolfsden, and

to my memory by the sight of trap
passing, just then, the gate Of Wolfs-

recognized Francis Heron.

in hot embarrassment, turned to fly.
But he had already discovered me.
Promptly he lifted his hat.
The old man saw me also. AS the
carriage came abreast of the gate,
heard him say, in a high, imperative
voice:
who is that girl?"
With equal distinctness, Francis
Heron answered, dryly:

Bachelor, the novelist, is Of unusually

Once when he was a reporter on New

of the number of applicants and the
kind of men they are, and describe

who, perhaps, has had no breakfast
and has walked miles because he
hasn't got carfare, and then meets dis

The boy In the car sat cuddled SO
close to the woman in gray. says the
New York Sun, that everybody thought
he belonged to her. so when he un-
consciously dug his muddy shoes into
the broadcloth skirt of his left-hand
neighbor she leaned over and said:
Pardon me, madam, will you kindly
make your little boy square himself
around? He Is soiling my skirt with
his muddy shoes"
The woman in gray blushed little
and nuggeG the boy away.
MY boy?" she said. MY goodness,
he isn't mine!"
The boy squirmed uneasily. He was
such a little fellow that he could not
begin to touch his feet to the floor. SO
he stuck them out straight in front
of him like pegs to hang things on and
looked at them deprecatingly.

An ExPERT,s ADVICE.

Mr.. r. st. Elmo Lewis of Detroit is
an advertising expert. He was pres
emit at the recent Bankers convention
at Waterloo in this state and gave the
members the benefit of his knowledge
of newspaper advertising His advice
to bankers is equally applicable to
those engaged in other lines OF bust
ness. The following paragraphs are
from his excellent address,:
Almost all advertisers go through
the three stages of advertising:
Il. When they try little of every
thing newspapers, calendars, novel
ties, folders, booklets, etc, provided it
is cheap.
%. When they fail to get results
from the first policy and conclude that
the whole things is gamble.
"3. When they have awakened to
the fact that just plain, reasonable
talk like that used in soliciting an ac-
count of one man, and put in the local
paper. regularly, brings the business.
use the newspaper that goes into
the home, no matter whether morning
or evening.
place all your contracts annually.
Use some space all the time. Change
your copy every issue.
Keep out Of the second-rate papers
keep in the good ones. You'll kill
off the poor cnes and help to make the
best ones better. That applies To
financial papers and local papers -s
well.
Don't give out advertising con
tracts because you like man or his
paper. Advertising is not charity
it is a business.

The subject is not taken up for the
sake OF condemning the parade in
memphis. or like exhibitions of deyo-
ton to lost cause in other parts of
the South, but only to remind orr
fellow citizens in that section of the
country that Union men have feel
ings and they believe that no other
government has ever been known
which would tolerate as our govern
ment does the constant public display
of the emblem of rebellion in great
professions, and on public buildings,
and in private grounds. No such con.
sideration has ever been known in the
worlds history as that shown by our
government since the close of the Re
bellion to the defeated side.

for reconstruction that is another
thing. and even then it is not surpris-
ing that mistake was made when
the magnitude. and desperate char.
acter OF the struggle are remembered

were involved in the adjustment OF

are not to be blamed who hold that
the national flag should hold primacy

STOOD UP FOR IOWA.

A paragraph in the Sioux City Jour
nal tells how Professor Holden of the
Iowa State College stood up for
Iowa. rather effectively at Brookings,
S. D., the other day. Governor Wesley
had made patriotic talk, from the
South Dakota viewpoint, telling how
the natural resources of South Dako-
ia now are, or soon viii be, greater than
Iowa in all lines OF agriculture. When
Professor HoIden.s turn came he did
not feel called upon to enter upon an
elaborate defense of Iowa's agricul-
tural prestige. Instead he asked all
members of the audience, large out
door gathering of farmers and their
families. who had come from Iowa or
who had ever lived there, to hold up
their hands. The hands of large
majority of the audience promptly
went up. No wonder you have the
greatest state in the union" smilingly
remarked Professor Holden, turning
to Governor yessey. The governor and
the audience saw the point and the
spontaneous applause which followed
was intended for both Iowa and South
Dakota.

CARE oS THE BABY.

Practical, helpful suggestions and
advice on The Care of the Baby are
fully given by the Illinois State Board
OF Health, in pamphlet on that sub
ject Just re-issued by the board. Copies
of this pamphlet will be sent without
cost to any resident of Illinois, who
sends a request to its secretary, DR..
James A. Egan of Springfield.
The great majority of deaths among
babies occur during the summer
months. July has a death roll num-
bering one-ffth of all that die. It is
the belief of the state board of health
that this high mortality is due not only
TO improper food, but also TO improper
care of the baby, and it is the further
conviction that hundreds of lives may
be saved By instructing the mothers of
the state on the care and feeding of
their babies during the summer
months.
Each chapter contains several cpl
grammatic admonitions. as for in

was as follows:

His career was intensely active. full
of years. honors, kindly words and
good works. He leaves behind him a
gracious memory as a man of letters,
as religious leader, as a patriot and
as a citizen"

Why "uncle Tom. Was Written.

Davenport Democrat: There have
been published many accounts, ex-
plantations and stories of how Har-
ret Beecher Stowe came to write
Uncle Toms Cabin the most IA
nous book of its day and one that did
great deal to formulate sentiment
against slavery In New York the
other day. Mrs Beecher,s son. Rev
Dr. Edward Stowe, told a gathering OF
friends that his mother wrote the
story TO obtain sufficient money to
found negro school. and that she fail
ed IN the effort. Those who listened
70 this account pledged the funds to
carry out the object cherished SO MANY
years ago. Since that time, however
many schools for colored young men
and women have been established
and some Of them have scored grea,
success. 4
