RUSlE'S TERRIFIC SPEED.
His Thunderboit Delivery 1srrortzed
the 6attors.


the eatters.
A veteran ball player who has bat
ted against nearly all Of the notet
pitchers in the last twenty years nam
| ed Amos Rusie as the universal stand
ard Of speed in shooting the ball across
the rubber.
There have been many fast pitch
ers in baseball, and oil of them In theil
time when they cut loose for fair have
baf1ed the best Of hitters with tbei'
speed, but yod viii notice that when
fast pitchers are spoken Of the one
remark is always made, Has he the
speed that Amos Rusie had?' And
I think, It will be that way forever
As long as great names are remember
ed or baseball is the nations game
Rusie will remain the champion speed
merchant, the one pitcher who could
send in the ball faster than any one
else that ever lived. When you lay
fast as Rusie' you don't mean It,
either; you only wish to show that
your favorite pitcher is very speedy
boy.
"Words fail really to describe the
speed with which Rusie sent the ball.
He was a man Of great width, great
strength and the ability to put every
ounce of his weight into the pitch.
Coupled with this he had set of daz-
cling curves which were manufactured
with the same effort required to pro-
duce the speed. Some men can throw
straight ball with great force, but
have to slow up in order to develop
curves, but Rusie drove in a curved
ball with all Of his tremendous power
Facing Rusie to a timid man was
like going into battle must be to an
inexperienced soldier. The distance
was shorter then. Rusie had the
whole box to move around in instead
Of being chained to slab. and be
simply drove the ball at you with the
force Of a cannon. I have stood up
to all the great pitchers Of nearly
twenty years, have seen scores Of
them come and 60. and none Of them
inspired the terror in n batsman's
heart that was put there by the
mighty Rusie. The ball was like
white streak tearing past you without
time to balance yourself. figure the
course Of the ball or take aim at 1t.
The fellows with the wide curve might
fool you into reaching out ind missing
them, but you weren't reaching out at
Rusie-you simply swung at white
streak as It hurled past. and II You
took a full arm swing the ball was
gone and in the catcher's hands before
you had half finished the swinging
motion.
"The convincing proof of Rusie's ter
rible speed was this: If any other
pitcher hit man the man swore,
limped moment and went to first.
II Rusie hit man the man retired
from the game and sometimes went
to the hospital. TO be hit by Ruaie
was worse than to have an ordinary
man smash you with a rock" - New
York World.

Banked Rails.

In rounding a curve the tendency
Of the weight of train is Invariably
to shift to the outside wheels. To
counteract this tendency the outer rail
Of a curve is raised on higher Level
than the inside, the elevation being
In an exact proportion to the sharp
ness of the curve as determined by the
principles Of engineering. II both
rails Of curved track were Of exactly
the same elevation q ain would not
dare round 1t at high speed.

The Donkey's Head.

Among the most extraordinary pieces
of symbolism known to have been used
BY the early Asiatics was figure of a
donkey's head used as a representative
of the deity. There is no doubt what
ever that the same emblem was once
used among the Hittites, the Egyptians
and one or two other nations as SYM
Dol of their red god, SUIT. The super
stition OF the yellow donkey Of India,
the story of the swift ass OF eastern
Asia and the ass Of Dionysius and
many other marvellous ass stories are
all survivals Of that curious form OF
religious worship the alteration Of the
ass head.

Mr.. Kuhl of Towner, stating that he
had taken a deep interest in the bill
within the previous twenty-four hours,
said that he was very we'll satisfied
with the measure, and declared that
the lao per cent feature was nothing
more or less than straw man.
After little further discussion the
previous question was moved by Mr.
Sorlie of Trail; and on the postpone
ment motion the vote was against.
The roll call on the bill follows:

They Both Knew.

The fool said one day in the kings
presence, II am the king!" And the
king laughed, for he knew that his
fool was wrong.
A week later the king was angry be-
cause of an error he had committed
and exclaimed, II am fool" And
the fool laughed. for he knew that his
king was right.
