the fight in the fifth round after Al

jumped on him. The foul came as the

Soldiers, when they defeated Fort Bliss

excellent support Donaldson who has
for the past few weeks been keeper
of sack No. /, went into the box for
the Soldiers, and pitched good game,
but his luck was "agin'" him, ana
the Millers circled the bases every
four innings.
Armstrong pitched himself into two
bad holes, but two double plays by
his team mates squared matters into
a goose egg for the U. S. boys.
Stewart, who made such poor attempt
at pitching for the Soldiers some time
ago was seen behind the bat for the
first time. and worked well. Hoover
was unable to play Saturday, so Grady
took third, and Pomeroy took charge
of the initial cushion, and with all
due respect to Gray, handled it about
as well as the Irishman.
Dawson made the feature catch of
the afternoon when he took a long
sprint after Jones's full distance drive
in the fourth canta and made a long
side jump after the sphere and caught
it with one hand

ARE THESE TWO GIRLS ONE?

The hardest problem legal authori.
ties In Berlin have had to solve in
years has resulted from the brief I'm
prisonment OF the Sisters Black"
who are Joined like the famous ST.
amese twins A warrant for alleged
breach of contract was issued for one
of the sisters, who were appearing at
a Berlin music hall. The court officer
wasted no time In the embarrassing
situation that confronted him, but took
both girls to Jail, A few hours later
the music hall manager made the
necessary deposit and secured the
girls liberty, Now the sister against
whom there was no warrant is suing
for Illegal imprisonment. Legal ex-
perts agree that unless the court de-
oides that the two girls are in reality
only one somebody will have to pay
dearly. One sister is married and the
mother of a baby two years old.

WORSHIP THE GODDESS KALI

Robert Dulwich, who has travelled
extensively in the lesser known re-
gions of the Himalaya, gives an inter-
esting account of native sect known
as the Thrays who have some curious
practices. The sect are worshipers
of the goddess Kali. They believe
either in self-destruction or in the
sacrifice of one of their fingers to ap-
pease the deity. Thus 1t comes about
that when the eldest member of a fam.
lily is married the unhappy mother is
expected to cut off the first two Joints
OF the last two fingers of her hand.
Princesses and other smart people in
this remarkable sect are allowed to
offer a substitute of finger Joints,
modelled In gold.
