POLITICS MUST
BE ELIMINATED

New York, Jan. 28--Politics, ac-
cording to John T. Brush, president
and stockholder in the New York Ma
tional league team, must be eliminat-
ed. Brush demands full power to do
as he pleases with the Giants, at the
same time denying the story that he is
to retire as president of the team,
to be succeeded by Fred Knowles,
the present secretary-treasurer.
There is persistent rumor In base
ball circles today that politics has
had much to do with the present
poor showing Of the Giants hin the
National league race. The statement
is openly made that President Brush
and Secretary Knowles cannot work
In harmony. Knowles was the sec
retary for Andrew Freedman when
the banker was known as the owner
OF the Giants. Freedman is still be-
lieved by many TO own q majority
of the stock in the club, despite his
retirement. Freedman was much
criticised for the way the Giants
played while he owned the team, and
It is said Freedman, while retaining
his ownership in the team, turned
his stock over to Brush, paying the
latter a salary of $4,000 a year Co
act as president, but insisting that
Knowles be retained MS secretary.
Brush, 1t Is said, owns but $4,000
worth of stock i'm the Giants, the rest
being held by Freedman. Brush has
proven himself n good baseball lead.
er, backin up McGraw at all times
But internal dissension. II is said, has
been responsible for McGraw's failure
to win and Brush declares politics
must go.
To show that he is still presi-
dent, and i'm charge Brush last night
appointed William Y. Gray, a the
atrical man, to be acting secretary of
the club, while Knowles is recuper-
ating at Lake Field where he Is said
to be seriously i'll.

The principal feature. of ti2 affair
was the basketball game between Ma

state basketball league. Bucyrus
had been successful in trimming Ma
rion heretofore. The locals were
seeking revenge and went after their
opponents in vicious manner. The
final score was thirty-nine to thirty
one in Marion's favor.
A peculiar feature of this game
occurred during the first minute of
play. Bucyruss started off like o
whirlwind and threw three straight
baskets In rapid fire order. 1t dis
heartened the Marion players some

Sawkins ran downstairs to tell his
father about the fire he met the
fremen coming up. They told him
the old man was in next door. So
soon as the fremen had gone Saw

Alr. Sawkins, ST., was sitting in
the parlor, surrounded by the
neighbor;s family, and busily en-
pIoyed in consuming a hot drink.
His costume was nightshirt cov-
cred by a swallowtail coat, patent
leather pumps and knees draped in
a steamer rug.
Sawkins was so struck by his ia
theirs genteel appearance that he
gravely thanked the neighbors for
their kindness in out6tting his ia
ther. Then he took his father home
in his novel costume to show his
wife.

AUNT ABBlE'S VISIT.
The. Old Lady Managed to Make Things
Pretty Lively.

The.oId Lady Managed to Make Things
Pretty Lively.
Sawkins says that something al
ways happens when his Aunt Abbie
comes to visit. She is eigbty-four,
and, although she cannot hear and
her eyesight is poor, still she is very
active, particularly at night, when
she frequently gets up to take sip
of milk and nibble a cracker.
The first night of her last visit
she got up at 2 o'clock to take her
second snack. Feeling around With
a lighted match for the gas, she set
the curtain on fire. Without mo-
ment's hesitation she pulled the
blazing curtain down and tried to
beat the blaze out with her bed slip
per. She couldn't, so she hurried
downstairs in the dark to Sawkins'
room and pounded on the door.
Sawkins and his wife awoke with
with a start and heard some one
mumbling outside the door. Aunt
Abbie had put her teeth away for
the night, ard her voice sounded
strange.
They sprang out of bed and yank-
ed open the door.
"Firep' muttered Aunt Abbie in
deep cultural tones. And she point
ed upstairs.
Up to the third floor front darted
Sawkins, followed by his wife and
Aunt Abbie. The carpet and a
wicker chair holding Aunt Abbie's
undergarments were burning brisk
ly. Sawkins grabbed rugs and tried
to smother the blaze, while his wife
ran to the fourth floor to arouse the
servants.
The servants came rushing down
in bare feet and nightgowns. Saw
kins meanwhile attended strictly to
business. With water carried from
the bathroom the fire was extin-
guished.
During the excitement sawkins
had forgotten ali about his father,
but as the old man had not showed
up sawkins thought his father was
still asleep downstairs.
1t seems not. His father had
heard Aunt Abbie say "Eire!" and,
very thoughtfully for an old man of
seventy-nine, had opened his win
dow and yelled "Fire!" Then he |
had gone out on the front steps in !

one heard him and sent in an alarm.

THE FOOD FOR POULTRY IN
WINTER.

Much time and money have been
spent 10 what seems the almost vain
endeavor to make hens produce eggs
In cold weather 1t requires but little
experience with poultry to learn the
fact that under ordinary circum-
stances, hens cannot produce as many
eggs In winter as in summer. Summer
is the natural time for the laying Of
eggs, and In order ia increase winter
production there must be reproduced
for the fowls as nearly as possible the
conditions that exist Ia summer. Mrs
