Baseball Job.

Baseball Job.
'SThe career Of Wagner In baseball
has been interesting" says Hugh ).

HE was reared in Carnegie. Pa. be-

brothers played the game there. John

Honus, or Hans. know his name is
John P.-was not a good player rs a
boy. The brothers thought he was q
bit too awkward and barred him ex-
cept when he wanted to pitch. His
arms were tremendously long. and
they assert around his home that
when he was kid and his legs
were even more bowed than they are
now he could walk along and pick
up apples without STOPPING. That i'm
mense length of arm has been one OF
the physical advantages that have
gone to make him the greatest of all
players. Besides. he has shoulders
almost as wide as his arms are long.
and he could throw ball with terrific
speed. Because he could throw so
hard all the other boys boosted no
catcher could hold John and there.

presently Al. who was Johns old

er and got job playing third base for
q team at Steubenville. U. George
Moreland. who now is the chief base

seized with q mania for owning and
managing teams. and he had bought

Moreland. I don't know replied AL.
But it won't cost much for you to

"Honus was playing on the lots
around Carnegie. and Moreland wrote.
asking him if he would sign q con-
tract to pitch for Steubenville, and
the second day thereafter there came
q postal card on which was written:
Yes. When do you want met
"Wagner ignored the salary question
entirely. and Moreland called Al into
consultation. What will your brother
wanty' he asked. oh, anything will
suit him. replied Al.
The salary limit Of the Steubenville
team was $500 q month, and Moreland
was within $50 Of the limit set by the
league, 50 he wrote Offering John Wag-
ner $50 n month to pitch for him. The
following day came another laconic
card: All right. Will accept

&. S. BILLS MAKES A
HIT IN LOCAL PLAY

The entertainment and basket sup
per social given Monday evening in
Bain's hall for the benefit of the
building fund of the Congregational
church, was largely attended and
proved social and financial success.
Following is the program:
Piano Solo.--Miss Helen Tenney.
Reading.-Dr. Alberta F. Moffet.
"A Play.-"His Old Sweethearts."
Comedians WOrk.-JOhn HattOn.
Every detail Of the program was
successfully rendered and personal
mention and praise Of each partici-
pant are well deserved, but we take
the liberty of mentioning only two
first, the work of Attorney &. $.
Bills in the part Of the bachelor
IN "Hls Old Sweethearts. Mr..
Bills ease of depletion won the audi
ence from the start, and the brilliancy
of many Of the lines was entirely due
to his originality. Second, John Hat
ton, a young comedian of five years
experience, who added materially to
the evenings pleasure and the sue
cess of the occasion by singing, re-
citing and jigging. Johns work was
appreciated by the entire audience,
which fact was we'll evinced by the
hearty applause accorded him.
After the program, partners were
selected by a novel method, and the
many beautiful and deliciously filled
baskets furnished by the ladies at
forded excellent suppers. Coffee was
furnished by the entertainment COM
mittee.
After supper some time was spent
around the piano by those inclined to
vocal music, and the strains were
greatly enjoyed by all.

AUSTRALIAN METHOD OF
WOOD PRESERVATION
Process Renders Lumber Proof
Against Parasites and Insects

Consul ]. f. Jewell Of Melbourne
submits the following report concern
ing a new method of treating wood
which has been invented and tried
with much success in Australia.
The essential part of the Powell
wood process consists in boiling the
wood and allowing it to cool and abb
sorb a saccharine solution, after
which it is dried, rendering the wood
thoroughly seasoned within a few days
after cutting, increasing its strength,
and stopping all warping and shrink
ing. The sap in the wood is driven out
and replaced by an antiseptic. owing
to the saccharine solution boiling at
a higher temperature than water, thus
making the wood impervious TO dry
rot and to the attacks of white ants
and other parasites which prey on
ordinary lumber.
During. the last four years num-
ber of pieces of lumber were tested
by the government of western Aus
tralia in localities where white ants
are very numerous, and the photograph
forwarded Con file in the bureau of
manufactures) shows the difference in
two pieces of lumber after one such
test, the treated piece remaining
sound, while the untreated one has
been destroyed.

FINED FOR FRIVOLOUS
APPEAL IN LAWSUIT
Appellants Not Only Lose Case
but Suffer Penalty

For taking what is branded by Jus
tice Melvin of the supreme court as a
frivolous appeal, James I. and Julia l.
Wagy, appellants. were fined $50. to be
paid to Berry McKelvey, plaintiff in
the case, according to decision hand
ed down yesterday.
The appeal was taken from a judg-
ment Of foreclosure on note for 81. 600
executed July =, 1906. secured by a
mortgage on real estate located in Los
Angeles county. The lower courts found
in favor of the plaintiff, which finding
was sustained by the supreme court
In rendering the decision, Justice
Melvin. besides branding the appeal as
frivolous, said: The defendants, who
offered no evidence on their own ac-
count, are appealing upon matters so
plain as to be almost automatic, the
suit evidently being brought to cause
delay"
