Tables Turned.

A good story is told of Congress-
man H. w. (Hank) Palmer of Will
kesbarre, Pa.
Hank" has the reputation of be-
ing quite story teller, and 1t at all
times ready to spring something
funny at the other fellows expense,
but it happened that this time,
Hanks joke was turned on himself.
1t was back in the early eighties,
when the scarf stick-pins were so
much in style. Hank purchased a
conspicuously large pin, the design
of which was potato bug, green in
color. When asked what 1t was,
Hank would answer IAN Irish potato
bug"
1t was up to U. S. Commissioner
Honn, of the same town, who Is a
typical German, and very unassum-
ing, to turn the joke on the funny
Hank, who had been having a lot of
fun with his Irish potato bug, till
he ran across the little comm issioner
who eyed the pin very closely, but
failed to make any remark about 1t,
fearing that Hank had some joke
attached to it.
Honn was about to walk away,
when Hank said to him: "Mr. Honn,
what do you think of my new pin?"
Mr.. Honn adjusted his heavy
glasses, scrutinized the pin very
closely. and asked: Hank yot ISIS
dot?"
That's an Irish potato bug" said
Hank.

BASE BALL FOR CAMBRIDGE
An Enthusiastic Meeting Held Last
Night in the Masonic Temple.

A number of gentlemen met last
night in the Board of Trade rooms
in the Masonic Temple. pursuant to
the call of Capt. J. B. Harris, to
talk over the situation in regard to
the placing of a local team in the
field and the joining in the forma-
ton of a league to be composed of
towns on the Shore and the lower
portion Of Delaware. The matter
was discussed at considerable length
and an attempt was made to secure
the views of all present in regard
to the establishment of such a team,
and also their idea as to the senti-
ment Of the general public.
The impression seemed to pre-
vail among those present at the
meeting that the people of Cam
bridge were anxious for a good base
ball team; that the support which
such teams have received in the
past justified the belief that there
Is no place Of the same size as this
city in which there are more lovers
of the great national sport,and the
only question that arose was as to
whether or not it would not be
possible to get up teams composed
wholly of home men, that is, men
located, and the county in which
such town is. 1t was felt by those
present, and this sentiment seems
to exist in many of the other towns,
that if a return could be made to
the days when local teams crossed
bats more interest would be taken
by the general public, and the ex-
pense would be greatly lessened.
All remember the exciting games
that were played between Salisbury
and Cambridge before the days of
hired players, and surely the inter-
est has never run higher than it
did in those days. Quite number
remember the days of the Muffers
and other similar teams.
There is no reason why a good
home team should not be organized
in Cambridge, and there is no rea-
son why Salisbury. Easton, Seaford !
Delmar, Dover, Snow Hill, Pocomoke
City and other places should not do
the same thing, and should a num-
Der Of these towns get together and
organize a league the patrons of the
sport in all of the towns would have
the opportunity of witnessing good,
clean ball, without the necessity of
thousands of dollars more
than the receipts from the games.
There Will be teams in practically
all of these places; there were last
season; but if properly managed,
there will be this difference-a
good article of ball can be put up
by picking out the best men from .
q large number of players; there is
plenty OF talent here and in the :
but unless there is some or
gained effort, there will be hap

The Oldest kiickitat.

Jake Hunt, the oldest living Klicki-
tat Indian known, lies at deaths door
at his home adjoining this town east
of here. The old Indian is reputed to
be more than 100 years of age.
Years ago an Indian village stood
where the Hunt family now carries ON
general farming business. All that
is left of the old settlement is little
church, totem pole and numerous
mounds where tae Klickitats lie who
could not reach the century mark. Old
Jake says that this was the Indians
paradise before the advent of early
white settlers.
Jake Hunt is destined not to die a
poor Indian. His lands are as rich and
productive as any in the valley and
command a high price. He is said to
have married seven times during his
long career, but there will be only a
widow and a few children to fall heir
to his valuable property.-Husum Cor
