There may be seen along the road

a nest out of all proportion to its ap-
parent needs. 1t selects a small tree
with horizontal branches growing close

feet long by two feet wide has been
constructed. On the end Of this plat

Is then made from the nest to the end

Psnknives.

Nowadays we use penknives princi-
pally for sharpening pencils. There
was a time, however, when they were
used primarily for doing something
else. They used to be just what their
name would indicate-they were pen
knives" The a%ncients used pens
made of goose quilts, just as our fore
fathers did up to about a hundred
years ago. The quill pen was made
by hand, of course, and whenever the
point Of one would break or lose Its
elasticity it was up to the penman to
put a new point or nib" on the quill.
This was done with a small knife, and
hence we have the word that has out
lived the quill pen a hundred years
~"penknife." In the olden times the
penknife was a necessary accessory
of the writing desk. When the clasp
knife came in the smaller sizes took
their name from the little desk knife,
while the bigger ones were called
"jackknives," Jack" slgnifying any
thing masculine or big and strong

SOME FRESH DOPE 800.

Successful Trap Shooting.

Aim your gun a little above the shed
protecting the traps. Give the call
'Pull.N' Do not get ratified. Get your
bird as it is going up or at its maxi
mum height and then fire, aiming
about six or eight inches ahead and a
tri1e below it, The tendency is al
ways to shoot too high, not allowing
for the speed of the descent. Above
all things fire, even If you know you
are going to miss. There is nothing so
disconcerting or fatal to the poise as
to allow d fairly thrown target to get
altogether away without shooting at 1t
at all. When calling pulp put some
ginger into it. Bark It," an old trap
shot used to say. Don't falter 1t, as
though ~apologizing for being alive. 1t
hurts your confidence and rattles the
trap pullers. If you stand with your
gun ready and humble pull" three or
four times before the target Is thrown
the chances are overwhelming that
you will miss.-C. Q. Peters in Outing.

TIME OF HIGH WATER.
Barred tho Red Heels.

Once actors used to say that they
were going Ito study a part for per-
formance;'' now the. saying is that one
''gets up in a part" which may be one
of the reasons why there were once
more studied performances than there
are now. AS an example of how much
can be safely left to the Intelligence
of even tried actors is the case Of the
Napoleen.c play that Charles Erahman
was once rehearsing, In the midst of
the dress rehearsal an actress of sup

Saw II In a Dream.

For many years ivory manufacturers
were trying TO devise a machine for
turning out a billiard ball as nearly
perfect as possible and at the same
time avoiding waste. Among those
who strove to perfect such a machine
was Mr.. John Carter Of the firm Of
John Carter & Son, well known ivory
manufacturers of half a century ago,
whose premises will stand In Bishops
gate. zone night after Mr.. Carter had
been striving TO solve the problem for
some time he suddenly awoke his wife
by shouting out, II have got 1T" and
rushed downstairs into his study,
where he made q drawing Of the last
knife, for the want of which he had
been SO long waiting in order to com
plete bis machine. 1t appears that he
had fallen asleep and dreamed about
the machine, and In the dream the So
tuition of the. difficulty was revealed to

Justice at All Hours.

Despite their preference for a repub-
Iican form of government, the French
are in some respects a conservative
nation. A Paris contemporary discoV-
cred that one of the doors of the pa
lais de Justice Is left ajar throughout
the night. This door has never been
shut since March 4, 1918, when Louis
XIII. ordained that 1t should remain
perpetually open $50 that my subjects
may be able to seek justice at all
hours of the day and night" How
ever, an enterprising journalist who
presented himself at the door In the
small hours of the morning was
promptly elected by a Waterman. And
when he quoted the ordinance OF 1913
the reply was, "If you don't clear off
you'll find yourself coming in by the
prisoners door tomorrow"

Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Keyport, Oct. 25:-The third
elimination contests-for the purpose
of determining the Century Athletic
Club bowling team was rolled at the
Brunswick bowling parlors, in First
street, last Friday night. This was
the last of the series of three con-
tests of three games each, the five
having the highest average for the
nine games making the team the
sixth highest being substitute.
Although a number of the contes-
tants were within q total of fifteen or
twenty pins of each other for the six
games of the first two matches, and
some of them were out for blood, no
change was. made in the standing of
the six highest. Armstrong lost his
5chance for fifth place In the first
game of the contest, he having rolled
only LOT. In this game Brennan,
who only had Armstrong by four
pins, gained 81 pins on the total.
Armstrong gained ail@but 32~of this
total in the last two games. CHS
man, who also had a good chance to
land sixth place, failed to- make good
and remained seventh. Hopkins,
Mooney and Kortenhaus have still q
chance as they have n or more
games each to roll before they conf
p1ete the stipulated: number. These
games VIII be rolled tonight at 8
O'clock. This will finish the elimina-
ton and the team, with a short time
practice will start1on a. schedule of
matches with the surrounding towns.
Those who failed to make the first
team will be formed into o. second
team. This will be- more for prac-
tice. for the first team than for match
es with outside teams.
No exceptionally high scores were
made, although the 400 mark was
hard pressed at times. Hyer a as
regular as usual, missing very few
of his possible spares. He succeeded
in making high man in the first con-
test, a position he has enjoyed
throughout the series. Maurer's hook
still continued it's slaughter of the
pins, as a result of which he easily
held second place for the s&ies.
Costa also fell hard In his first game,
rolling only 1873, but recovered his
gait and finished the, two remaining
games with 1877 and 1856 respective
ly, thereby snuffing Ackerson,s hopes
for third place. Ackerson in turn
o%ut-rolled Tommy" Brennan and
held good at fourth. Voorhees,, who
was eighth place for the first two
contests, started in as though he
meant business by rolling 165, but
eased Chisman's mind in the second
and third by rolling only 1873 and
1872. Kortenhaus, who has only roll
ed five of his nine games,. will roll
the remaining ones tonight. If
Freddy" goes on the warpathusomev
body will have to vacate their posi-
ton. This will be the first all Cen
fury team here, and after a short
practice they will be able to put up a
good game. In order to make. each
game ore interesting and to spur
the contestants IN; new teams were
chosen to roll each game.

of the contestants In the~ f~frst~game

IS TAKEN IN
BASKETBALL MATTERS
Special Meeting of Managers of
League and Teams Representa-
tves--WHI Protect Interest.
TO PLAY TWO GAMES TONIGHT

Steps to protect basketball inter
ests and teams In this city were
taken at a special meeting of mana
gers and representatives of the vari-
GUS teams In the Auditorium last
night. City League matters were
discussed at length and action was
to better the games on the
Auditorium court by erecting Greens
back of the basket boards.
At present there are eight bonifide
teams in the city and one or two
others r forming. From now on.
these teams will receiNs the same
guarantee as the visiting teams re-
.ceiye here. Using $40 as a working
basis, teams appearing in this city
will receive $40 for each game and
any local team shall receive the same
on out-of-town courts or they will
not appear.
Both this year and last 1t came to
the attention of the league manage
ment that local teams playing in this
vicinity receive little or nothing for
Perth Amboy evening news., 1910-10-25

their efforts, while teams from subur-
ban places coming here to play de-
mand all kinds of fees, some of which
are e%xorbitant. Fair play" was the
slogan of the meeting last night,
Local teams want to be accorded the
same treatment as visitors receive
here.
The placing of screens six feet
both sides of the baskets will be the
means of prohibiting spectators from
interfering with players in the act of
shooting baskets. Heretofore 1t has
often been the custom to have root
ers of one team sitting ear their
opponents basket to boot and howl
when a. basket was being made, or
fouls were being scored On.
Owing to the numerous attractions
at the Auditorium next week there
will be- two league games there to-
night. At the first, at $40 o'clock,
the Owls and Marions viii come to-
gether, and at $3.50 o'clock the Good
Wills and Young Mems Hebrew Asso-
