vided among the different states as fol-
lows: District of Columbia, u: Mary
land It. and New York and Virginia. l
each
This large increase over the lists OF the
last few months is largely due TO the
municipal games OF Baltimore and the
Washington Grove games. both of which
will be pulled off in the near future, and
great many athletes had to fall in line
In order to be eligible to compete in these
meets. This months list should be
equally as large, "a several other large
athletic events will be pulled off toward
the latter part Of September.
Warning to Athletes.

BROWNS ONCE MORE
TROUNCE NATIONALS
Locals Hit the Ball Hard. but
Smith Fails to Make
Good.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


ST. LOUIS Mo. September 1.-Wa9h-
iuGton dropped another game to st Louis
yesterday after having tied up the battle
i'm the seventh inning. Wthcrup started
ON the mound for Cantilion's crowd, but
gave way i'll the seventh after the Ma
tiouals had made a game fight and
brought the fighting once again up to
equal terms.
Had Smith been able to hold the Browns
i'll check perhaps his teammates might
have taken on considerably more courage
and eventually pounded out victory off
Barney Petty. AS 1t was. though. Smith
right at the start failed to locate the
plate, dished out a pass and the three
singles followed. Coupled with an error
il netted the st. Louis crowd three-run
lead and gave McAleer's charges a fresh
start. From this on Petty and his team
mates played high-class ball and the Ma
tionals never had d chance.
Petty was anything but i'm the proper
form. else it might have been that the
Washington players had their batting
clothes on. At any rate. in the first
inning after Browne had expired on a
roller. Ferris to Griggs, Dutch" Schae-
fer started clouting Barney. Cnglaub
also hit and Lelivet sacrificed, put
ting runners on second and third. Yohe
tried hard TO make good before his man
aser. who. by the way. viewed the game
from box seat in the grandstand. but
the youncster was retired after making
grand try. His vicious roller bounced into
the hands of Harry Howell. stationed ut
third base. and Harry's toss to Griggs got
Ione by Il foot.

IT WAS A FINE COD.
a Little Story of William M. Chase, the
Portrait Painter.

(
Portrait Painter.
Several years ago had a studio at
Hammersmith and was hurrying into
London one morning to transact some
business. Just as 1 swung around a
corner occupied by a fishmonger's
market my eye was attracted to o
magnificent cod stretched out for ex-
hibition On a clean slab Of white mar
bic. Whatever my mood for color was
that morning, that fish completely fit
ted and filed it. 1 must paint it, de-
cided.
called out the proprietor and told
him what I wanted. 1 was a bachelor,
1 explained, and did not want to buy
the big fish. 1 only wished the use Of
It as a model. Could I rent it?
COW, now, SIR" he said, with true
British stolidity. eli never rents my
fish. You see. it's Saturday, too, sir.
Hi must sell him today, sir"
However, 1 explained that l needed
the fish for only a few hours, and di-
rectly we struck a bargain. If after
two hours 1 still wished to keep the
fish should buy it. AT the end Of the
stipulated time the boy came. 1 was
not quite finished "In a few minutes"
said, and when I looked up he was
gone
Shortly afterward the proprietor
came, tiptOeing in and peeping over
my shoulder 1 could hear him softly
signing, and said nervously, "In
few minutes now, in a few minutes"
Don't Jury, sir; don't 'urry," he
urged. She's gettin' on! Hill take
my chances, sirr'
When the painting was finished he
refused at first to accept any remu-
neratiGn. but at length. with a, NUT
tered apology, he charged-a shilling!
The painting was hung ard shortly
afterward purchased Icy the Corcoran
Art gallery for Q very substantial
sum.
On my next trip to London I deter
mined to call up my fishmonger, tell
him of the good fortune that had at
tended the painting and tender him
some fitting reward. To my great sur
prise he not only refused again any
sort of fee. but evinced no surprise
whatever at the figure the painting
had brought, though the price paid
represented several times over the in
vestment Of his shop.
"Ah, but it was fine cod, sirp' he
said, and his eyes glowed with pride
'NOw, wasn't it?"-William NJ. Chase

ORIENTAL RUGS.
Made to Resemble the Antiques by
Chemical Washings.

The United States buys annually
many thousand dollars worth of what
are known to the profession as wash
ed rugs. Brightly colored oriental rugs
sometimes are washed with a solution
Of chloride CT lime, a treatment which
partly bleaches the c0lors and imparts
a soft appearance to the rug.
This chemical treatment is a process
Of washing which produces the effect
Of age and peculiar sheen to the sur
face, which is pointed out by the I'M
ScrupulOus dealer as q proof OF supe-
riOr quality. The fact is that the proc
ess Of washing as described invariably
weakens and in some instances de-
str0ys the materials Of the rug.
The progressive effect Of the chem
icals on the materials in the rug is
this: The chlorine gas contained in the
chloride Of lime attracts oxygen and
moisture from the air, by which muir
attic acid is formed. This eats away
the vitals Of the rug. Sooner or later
the wool and cotton in the rug become
brittle and thus weaken the warp and
deterlOrate the WOOL.
When this deterioration is complete
the pile of the rug may be swept away
by the ordinary process of sweeping,
and the warp, which is the foundation
Of the rug, becomes so weak that holes
appear here and there, and soon the
rug is worthless.
1t not seldom happens that Persian
rug is too staring in some bright hue,
perhaps red, and is not salable. The
INSCRIPTIONS dealer win subject the
rug to a series of washings in chem
ically prepared water. In this way he
turns out a rug possessing a soft an
tique sheen that is truly captivating
and finds a ready purchaser at an ad-
valced price.-Chicago Tribune.

QYou read in the papers daily of appar-

ference is easy of detection; any one can soon become an expert as to the main points of a blanket.
 There are still some though. who do not understand this. They pay no at tention to the wool and warp of the blanket. its coloring material or its fineness and solidity. They take into account only the dimensions.
 The same people though. presumably understand that because shoes may be of the same size. they may not be sold at the same price.
 But most of the people who call at the Big Curio Store know that there are Navajo blankets and Navajo blan- kets. They also know the difference between them and they moreover know that the kind of Navajo blankets the Big Curio sells have guaranties behind them as to their quality and genuineness.
 The other day lady whc appraises Navajo blankets by the size of them was looking over the stock. She i'm quired the price of one and when she was told, she said she had one in her trunk at the hotel, just like the one in question and she had paid only half as much for it.
 MT Bake showed her the difference between good blankets and cheap ones and then said, Now. if as you say, the blanket ..ou bought is just like this one or is of the same quality as this one. you bring it here and l will make you a present of your choice of the blankets in this store; yes. I'll even let you have the Taft blanket" The lady said she would return with the proof but she has not since been seen.
