Don't fail to see the game today be-
tween the same teams at White
Park.

smuggling out, one of those three bag

to be doing.
Groundkeeper Nix has several UNI

Funny how smile can be found on
so many faces in this burg after the
home team plays winning game of
bali.
Umpire Welsh made his initial APP
pearance at Whites Park yesterday
and made very favorable impression
with players and fans.
1t is conceded by all base bali en-
thUsiasts in this section of the woods
that pitcher Digger is the best all
round base ball player in the Blue
Grass League.
Little Ochs was again the bright and
shining star IN center. He took one
from off the center field fence yester-
day afternoon thai came near break
ing Strader's heart.
Manager Barnett recognizing that
his play of late is not up to his stand
ard has gone to the bench for little
rest Hannigan was on the third bag
Sunday, and played good game, con-
sidering he had been playing in the
outfield for several weeks.
Manager Barnett was in Hunting
Ton, w. Va, yesterday and came home
last night with new man, who it is
said can play either behind the bat, on
first base or in the outfeld and is well
known as corking good hitter. An
other man is expected to arrive this
morning who is up in "G' with the
stick.
Umpire Hanley in both Saturday and
Sundays game gave Paris the hot end
of it. He was simply ''rotten" and
not at single stage of the game die
he dare to favor Paris in single close
decision. 1t looks strange that these
umpires have it in the Paris team
both on home grounds and when they
are away from home. Paris is the best
drawing town for game in the league
and turns over more money to the
other clubs than any of the other lea
que towns, but it is apparent at every
game, even to blind man, that the
umplres make decisions against them
as If they had instructions TO do sc
from some source. People are not
fools and the majority of them that at.
tend the games here know more about
the game than the present umpires en-
ployed By the league. Hanley's rot
ten work and Partially in the games
referred too was enough almost to in
cite a riot. Something is wrong in
Denmark. The only umpire in, the
I Blue Grass League that has ever shown
any fairness at all in decisi 1ns for thu
Paris team was Rasche and he wa!
forced to resign. Strange, Amt it?
! The above has no reference to th'
new umpire, Welsh, who made his frs
appearance here yesterday.

To Prevent Frauds.

To discuss the best means OF pre-
venting frauds in connection with the
collection of the internal revenue tax
the provision included in the tariff, but
which exempts tobacco growers from
the tax, was the object Of conference
at the White House Saturday night.
Senator Bradley was a member of the
conference, and expressed the opinion
that when the tobacco schedule is final
~ adopted the grower will be relieved
to such an extent he can sell his leaf
tobacco free of tax without keeping a
memoranda.

Sun Cooking.

Sun cooking-roasting and boiling by
sunlight instead of by coal or gas-has
been going on for 800 years. There are
sun stoves that roast a sirioin or boil
a soup to perfection. They are only
used. however, by scientists. A sun
stove consists mainly Of q mirror-a
spherical mirror--ou joint There is
also a reflector. The place for pot or
plate is so situated that the mirrors
rays can be focused on 1t accurately.
A German, Baron Tcherhausen. was
the first sun cook. He began in 1887 to
boil water, and in 1888 he had very
good success in boiling eggs. Sir John
Herschel and Button are other famous
names associated with sun cooking.
In California various sun cooks have
boiled a gallon Of water in twenty
minutes, roasted meat In two hours
and poacbed eggs in fifteen minutes.
quite as good time as the ordinary FIRE
makes. -,...
An odd thing about meat roasted by
sun rays is that 1t has an unpleasant
taste. This is avoided by the insertion

chamoionina the Worm.

An incident that occurred some years
ago during a session OF the British
parliament furnished an amusing IL
lustration OF the lower OF satire to
bring about results that sober argu-
ment often fails to accomplish.
There had been introduced d bill de-
signed to prevent cruelty to wild ami
mails in captivity. 1t was opposed on
the ground that. II passed. 1t would
endanger certain kinds of legitimate
sport.
When the Earl OF Kimberley arose
he gravely admitted the force of this
argument.
There can be no doubt" said he,
that the bill would put an end to fish
ing with worms as bait. 1t is bill to
prevent cruelty to wild animals in
captivity. The schedule states that
the word animal shall he held to in
clude reptile. A worm may be held to
be a reptile. A worm impaled on n
hook must certainly be held to be in
captivity; therefore the angler who
uses IL live worm for bait would be
guilty of cruelty TO an animal In cap
tivity."
The laugh that followed at the en-
pense of those against the bill robbed
the opposition of whatever force 1t had
and carried the measure to sue
cessful issue-Cincinnati Commercial

Rebuked the Bishop.

The bishop Of Petersburg, England,
is a great motorist and is also q
stanch teetotaler, and thereby hangs
a tale. On one occasion, while out in
his car, the chauffeur ran short of
petrol and applied at a public house
for some more. The publican came
out, and, seeing the bishop in his
episcopal dress in the car, said: "Yes,
I've got plenty of petrol, but l don't

Animals That Weep.

"He cried like a calf is a remark
sometimes heard. 1t is no disgrace for
calf to cry, and he sheds tears in
quantities when his emotions justify
them. 1t is even easier for him to cry
than for many other animals, because
his lachrymal apparatus is perfect and
very productive.
A scientific writer in Nature says
that the ruminants are the animals
which weep most readily. Hunt
ers have long known that deer at
bay cries profusely. The tears will
roll down the nose of bear when he
feels that his last hour is approaching.
The big. tender eyes of the giraffe fill
with tears as he looks at the hunter
who has wounded him.
Dogs weep very easily. The dog has
tears both in his eyes and voice when
his beloved master goes away and
leaves him tied up at home. Some va
rietieS of monkeys seem to be particu-
larly addicted to crying. and not few
aquatic mammals also find it easy to
weep when the occasion requires IT..
Seals in particular are often seen to
cry.
Elephants weep profusely when
wounded or when they see that es-
cape from their enemies is impossible.
The animals here mentioned are tina
chief ones that are known to weep. but
there is no doubt that many others
also display similar emotion.
