KOESTNER is SOLD
TO CLEVELAND MAPS

President Henry Berry of the Angel
City baseball association last night re-
celved a telegram from President Kilfeyl
of the Cleveland American league team,
accepting his terms for the sale of
Pitcher Koestner regarded the twirl-
ing find of the Pacific Coast league this
season. The offer was made by Cleve-
land after the visit here of Catcher Me-
Guire, who is on the coast scouting for
the Maps. The Cleveland management
sent Mcclure to Los Angeles with the OBJ
iect of getting KOestner II possible, and
although there was considerable dickering
the Americans wanted the tall boy so
badly that they finally agreed to Berry's
price. President Berry last night re-
fused for personal reasons to state the
amount of the purchase price, but
wire from the east gave it as $4,000,
which is probably correct.
Koestner has made a startling record
this year, for the coasters having lost
only a few games. He is one of the best
O fthe Angel twirlers, being notable for
his GOODNESS and steadness in a pinch.
He is only a youngster and has bril-
liant future before him. Although the
purchase has been announced, Koestner
will not separate himself from the An
gel team this season, but will finish out
the schedule with the Champions. He
will report to Lajoie i'm the spring prac-
tice next year of the Cleveland team 1t
is on this team that his delivery will be
received by Teddy Easterly, formerly
his catcher ON the Angels. Thus does
the fame of the coast lads spread.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 6.-KetchePs
inability to knock out Papke yesterday
inside of ten rounds as he had Dragged
he would do, has hurt his prestige here
and local sports believe CoffrOth will
have 10 substitute AL Kaufman for
Ketchel in the proposed fight with Jack
johnson for PertOla celebration week in
October. COffrOth knows that he could
not draw a big crowd with Ketchel after
the sorry showing Ketchel made with
Papke, but Kaufman has greatly inn
proved as a boxer. He is as large as
the big negro and he has the knockout
punch in either hand. The problem
would be whether Johnson's cleverness
would win over Kaufman's strength

TO keep music SO that 1t can be easi-
ly found and is free from dust ia no
easy task without cabinet that is
well supplied with shelves and door.
One impecunious young music student
has solved the problem rather happily.
She found in her cellar box q yard
high, fourteen inches wide and ten
inches deep. or just an inch or so
wider and deeper than the average
sheet of music.
The box was scrubbed inside and
out, and number of shelves were
made from thin pieces Of wildwood
that rested on small screws stuck in
the inside Of the box at irregular inter
walls.
Some old broomsticks were cut up
into four legs, each one ten inches
high. These we're fastened to the bot
tom of the box by stout nails. The lid
was turned into door by means Of
two brass hinges bought for a few
cents.
When the cabinet was finished 1t
was given three coats of white paint
and fourth Of white enamel. In the
center Of the door an inexpensive copy
of the "Child Handel" Margaret Dick
sees well known painting, was used
as a panel. 1t was held in place by
narrow framing Of white silk SOU
iache. fastened with large brass head
cd tacks.
Inside on the front Of each shelf was
lettered the kind OF music to be kept

SHOTGUN AS A CURE.
Senator TilIman Suggests It as a
Remedy For Auto Speeding.


Washington, Feb. 6.-The shotgun as
q cure for auto speeding was advocated
on The floor OF the Senate yesterday by
Senator Tillman. Incidentally the SEN
ator posed as the champion of the au-
tomobile and defended it against the
attacks of Senator Bailey. The Texan
re-appeared in his role Of Friend of the
Horse and pictured gloomy future for
the farmers Of the country if the gov
eminent lent its Endorsement to that
noble animals mechanical rival.
The senator's position and his argu.
mcnt are untenable," insisted Tillman.
'His argument that the horse will be
done away with if the automobile is
adopted means that we should never
have had the railroad. but should have
stuck to wagons. Wagons to haul our
commerce would mean the employment
Of millinos of horses"
Mr.. Bailey argued that assistance
lent the factory meant proportionate
injury TO the farm. He was especially
bitter over what he termed speed
mania
Mr. Tillman said the automobiles OF
Washington scared him" but that
there was way to stop them.
Il believe / can guess how the sena-
tor would accomplish that said Bailey
sarcastically.
Certainly. With shotgun" re.
torted Tillman.
The debate arose over an item in the
District OF Columbia appropriation bill
providing for a secretary for the auto.

Debate.
HEADS ARE NUMEROUS

Vienna, Feb. 6.-The present session
OF the Austrian Parliament came to an
end yesterday morning after a scene
Of turbulence extraordinary even for an
assembly where violent outbreaks are
comparatively common.
The trouble, which arose from the old
racial feeling between the Germans and
the Czechs, broke out during the debate
on government BILL the object of which
was to reconcile these differences. The
radical Czechs obstructionists, who have
been hindering the debate on this meas
are for several days with a continuous
din from drums and tin whistles, so
exasperated the Germans that the oppos-
ing deputies came TO close quarters and
fierce scrimmage ensued.
One OF the radical Czech deputies, a
man named Speczek, who has been most
violent in his obstruction, was captured
and whipped until he howled for mercy.
Another Czech was bitten by a German
on the cheek and sustained an ugly
wound, and black eyes and sore heads
were numerous. The premier, Baron Won
Bienerth, seeing the uselessness OF at.
tempting to pass legislation, closed the
session and sent the deputies home.
The departure OF the ministers was
followed by another free fight in which
the opposing factions rushed upon one
another to the strains of revolutionary
songs and confusion reigned for hall
an hour. The deputies finally became
exhausted and the battlefield was grad.
ually deserted.
The sudden closing Of the session and
the political import OF the disorder have
had an adverse effect upon the Bourse
