TRIBUTE TO TY COBB.

The story is going the rounds that
Ty Cobb is jealous of the attention
that some umpires. OLoughlin and
Evans get from the fans and that he
does not play his best game when
they are doing the arbitrating.
According TO Billy Evans such talk
is all bosh. Evans says: You would
think that player like Cobb, who has
been touted so highly and who rs such
a popular here in Detroit would get
chesty and attempt TO show up an
umpire ut times. There arc plenty
Of such players, but Cobb is not one OF

The difficulties experienced by our forefat thers in trying to reckon money in very small proportions appear in the various values given to finite" in the sixteenth and seventeenth cen tury books of commercial arithmetic. The original mite seems to have been a third of a Flemish penny, but the use of the word for the widows coin of the New Testament made it's regular English meaning half far thing, and some old people may re member applying the name to the short lived nineteenth century coins of that value. In those old arithmetic books mite" stands for various val ues not represented by actual coins, but obviously used in reckoning. A work of 17O6 makes it one-twelfth of a penny, two sixteenth century books one-sixth of a farthing, and in 1874 Jeake's arithmetic made it as little as one sixty-fourth of penny.-Lon- don Chronicle.
