bear and gold bug 1t may be ob-

that the last has probably no direct
suggestion of terror to the American
mind. Bug is freely used in America
for any kind of insect. Our English
word, however. is directly affiliated TO
the Celtic word. which meant a demon
or DOGGY. 1t is conjectured that when
the Objectionable insect became accli-
mated here, which was not many CEN
turtles ago., the terror of its attacks
earned ii it's name. We get bug IN
it's old sense In Shakespeare This
Warwick was a bug that feared us all
and the terror by night is 'bugge by

BASEBALL cRAcKERJAcKS.
The Three Most Remarkable Instances
 Of Baseball Training.

Hugh <. Fullerton, writing in the April American Magazine on how base ball players get into condition before the season begins, describes what he considers as the three most remarka ble cases of the result of training as fol- lows:
 The three most remarkable in stances of training. perhaps. are found in the cases of Radbourne. who pitched practically two-thirds of all the games played by Providence one season. and pitched the last third of the season alone: Jimmy Ryan, the famous old out fielder. who.. after thirty years still throws well. and Theodore Breitenstein, who pitched for St Louis twenty years ago. and now is one of the star pitchers of the Southern league. The odd coincidence eff such it is) is that these three men all had the same hobby and both Ryan and Breitenstein adopt cd it from Radbourne. They treated their arms through their stomachs. During the spring training season they resorted to the old fashioned treacle (sIIIphur and molasses). taking large doses night and morning. Ryan says he started using treacle on Radbourncs advice, and believes that his long ser vice in baseball was due in large DOT portion to the spring tonic"

Horrible Night" is undoubtedly one of the very best ever presented anywhere for the price. MT. Lees productions are all real comedy shows with a story blended throughout requiring people who can do lines and dress their parts The audience last night seemed to appreciate that fact. and, coupled with the rich comedy situations and the beautifully costumed musical num- bers put on by pretty girls. both in face and figure. with their graceful dancing and the electric effects, brought many cncores and much applause. The Girl With the Raven Hair made h"r second appearance last evening and got seN- cral hundred more people guessing as to her identity. The lady lives in Phoe nix and will appear each night until next Wednesday. when she will appear in full view of the audience. Many funny ideas are advanced. Lots of people think it is an illusion. Guess who she is Leave answers at box of flee. If correct you will be rewarded. Manager EchIin states that the one show each night system will prevail at the Majestic. beginning at o'clock; concert by orchestra at 1:i5. Perform ances will positively take place every night. rain or shine, as the roof will be adjustable.

--tD----- IUCINOA'S EXPERIENCES,
4 Really Extraordinary Happening All
 Turning on an Automobile.

Certainly I do have extraordinary experiences said Lucinda, and sometimes things happen that [ cant account for You take things like this. for instance:
 "Yestcrdav afternoon | was walking west on the north side of q Crosstuwn street above Thirty fourth street, in the block between Fifth and Sixth atcnueS. a good old residence block with d few business places now mixed m. and as walked along west on this block heard coming behind mc along the street. headed in the same direction, an automobile.
 There wasn't anything very unus- ual about that. was there2 But do you know when I heard that automo- bile coming I wondered what would happen to me if anything should hap pen to it when 1t came mp to where was. and | looked around to sec what I could do At the moment this thought came tu me [ was walking in front. this area being depressed about house with d basement area in front. this area being depresse dahout three feet and protected along the in- ner edge of the sidewalk by q stout stone fence: and thought that if that automobile should cut up any Capers when il got opposite tu me-and II would be there now in about two sec onds--I would just jump down in that area But do you know what actually did happen? I will tell you.
 'I heard the burr-r-r and WhiZ of that automobile coming fast and two seconds later. at the time when I had thought it possible that it might be coming toward me. | heard chatter in the street. and when | looked around l saw that automobile half way up across the sidewalk directly oppo- site to where I was on the other side of the way. looking as if it was going right on up the steps of a house that was there and straight through the front door
 As a matter of fact it didn't climb the steps and it didn't go into the house: the chauffeur checked it on the sidewalk: but if that wasn't an extra ordinary happening to sec that big au- tomobile-it was a big. heavy limou sine-thst I had imagined might come toward me and that just one moment before had been coming down the street as fast as it could. go now climbing the sidewalk on the opposite side of tho way-if that wasn't an eX- traordinary happening I don't know what you'd call one.
 But the most extraordinary thing or all about it was that l should have had in advance any thought that any thing might happen. I think it might be accounted for in this way:
 Something happened to the auto mobile that put it for the moment be- yond control ar beyond complete con trol. perhaps for the moment altogcth- CT beyond control. as the chauffcr realized: and at the same instant he saw me "n the sidewalk just ahead, and 0y thought transfercncc he warn cd me: and then in the next instant he gained sufficient control of the ma chine to make it sWerve in the other direction. don't pretend to be able tu account for all this definitely and finally. but the things I have told you did happen

GETTING FIT.
Queer Methods Used by Baseball Players to Get Themselves
 Into Condition.

Hugh $ Fullerton. the well-known baseball expert. writing in the April American Magazine. on how the ball players get themselves Iuto condition. -ays:
 Every player seems to have his own system, and some of the methods used are laughablc. and few are of any practical value. one young catcher who joined q National Lea que club two years ago brought five gallons of iron. beef and wine in jugs in his trunk to make him strong Cannon balls that weigh twenty-five pounds are used to roll over the abdomen. iron rolling pins. special bandages. a thousand kinds of rub bing lotions. ranging from patent medicines tn horse dinaments and oil made by boiling down fishing worms. vibratorS of all sizes and shapes. bandages. arm bakers to he SupCrheatPd with electricity. and rub Der bands are employed. Hotel rooms are turned into gymnasa. and one of the funniest sights of year is to sit in q card game with half dozen players swathed like puffy mummie9 in blankets. sweaters and flannels un- til they loo kas If they were start ing on an Arctic journey.

A PRAYER FOR ALL WORKING
 MEN.

The April American Magazine con tains the following prayer by Walter Rauschenhusch for all working men:
 70 God. thou mightiest worker of the universe. source of all strength an4 author of all unity. we pray thee for our brothers. the industrial work CTS of the nation. As their work binds them together iu common toil and hanger. let their hearts grow together in d strong sense of their common in terest and destiny. Help them to realize that the injury of one is the concern of all. and that the welfare of ali must be the aim of everyone. If any of them is tempted to sell the birthright of his class for a mess of pottage for himself. give him wider outlook and a stronger sympathy Teach them to keep step in a steady onward march. and to fulfill the law nf Christ by bearing the common bur dcnS. Grant the organizations of labor quiet patience and prudence in all dis putes. and fairness to see the other side Save the tWo-cdgcd sword of violence that turns on those who siezc it. Raise up for them still more lead CTS of able mind and large heart. and give them grace to follow the wiser counsel When they strive for leisUrp and health and a better wage grant their cause success. but teach them not to waste their gain on fleeting passions but to use it in building fair or homes and a unbier manhood. May the upward climb of labor. its defeats and it's victories. in the farther reaches bless all classes of our nation, and build up for the republic of the future

WILL ASK COUNCIL FOR DIRECT ASSESSMENT" BUSINESS MEN DON'T WANT TO SHOULDER THE BURDEN. The Sewer Question Will be Para mount at Mondays Council
 Meeting.

Before the city council Monday night an effort will be made by many of the heavy taxpayers of the business district of the city to get the council to change the plan originally adopted for the sewer question. Instead of calling for another registration to vote on d S40o,O00 bond issue these men will try to show the counCilmcn that the proper method of paying for the sewer will be by the front foot assessment plan
 The discovery that the last reGistra- tion was defective. and that others beside thosc' who are actually on the tax rolls have a right tn register and later to vote un the bond issue. has given some business men an oppor- tUnity tn reconsider the subject with the result that tho rev scheme has been devised. It is believed by some that even if the last registration had been allowed tn stand the election would not have carried bv the neCcs- saIy two-thirds majority. Some of the business men have been working quietly but surely tn defeat the bond iSsue-nnt because they are not in favor of having sewer system: but because they think that the burden of payment should bC shifted. By th" proposed plan of direct asSeSsInent the man who owns lot assCSSrd at Slhoo would have [" pay S90 toward the building of the sewer while anoth CT man. owning a single lot on Wash mSton street worth s1n.0oO and store on ii valued at say s25.0oo would pay the same amount
 If the assessment plan is adopted Monday night if will he necessary t" go to congress tn get an enabling act. If the bond issue is adopted no appeal to congress is necessary. IL is possible that some middle way between the two may be presented.

That the men who robbed the post
