over another wallop with the right
that sent Perron to the mat. The
Pawtucket boy came back strong after
this Touchdown and fought like lion,
but he simply couldn't hit Gibbons.
The seventh round was bit slower,
Gibbons dancing a two-step around
the Pawtucket boy and holding his
jaw out for the latter to hit. Perron
was willing, but when his blows shot
over the jaw wasn't there.
Down and Out In Ninth.
He went down again in the eighth
round, and in the ninth got his quietus,
two right crosses to the jaw doing the
trick During the whole battle. though
Perron was strong and hit hard, he
didn't land more than two hard blows.
He could do nothing against Gibbons
science.
Manager Reddy announced after the
fight that negotiations were on for
Gibbons to meet Packy Mcfarland for
the worlds welterweight championship.
He said the bout would probably come
off on Jan. 10 before a New York club.
The week after he arrives home Glib
bons will appear at the Star theatre
with his brother Tom. The Gibbons
pair will put ON three-round sparring
exhibition at each performance.

BRUSH TALKED
OF THE SCANDAL

New York, Dec. 1.-THE baseball
war which exists on paper between
the American and National leagues,
went merrily on yesterday, but indi-
cations were plentiful that it was to
be war of words only.
Offlcially, the National league at
tended severely to its own affairs, re-
electing Pres. Thomas J. Lynch and
ignoring the resolution adopted by the
American. The worlds series ticket
scandal continued to hold the spot
light. President Brush of the New
York giants, who made public his re-
port to the National commission on
the scandal, addressed a letter to Ban
Johnson asking him to explain a few
things alleged to have happened to
the pasteboards in Philadelphia.
why pick the giants for the goat?'
Mr.. Brush asks, among other things,
while dilating upon the outrage per-
petrated upon the New York public
through misdirectiofl and collusion
with ticket spectators why do YOU
not explain how in Philadelphia ten
persons absorbed over 5000 tickets. an
average Of 500 each, and sixty. three
age Of fifty eaoh?'
incidentally Mr.. Brush's letter saws
that there were no street ticket spec
uiators in New York during the
worlds series--''it being unlawful
In part it reads:
Having charged some Official of the
New York club with handing out g.
600 or 1900 tickets to spectators out
$4,000 Of its reserved seat capacity.
depriving the public to that extent of
an opportunity of buying direct, why
is 1t that you are silent over the dis
position Of tickets in Philadelphia
where SlS1 out OF total Of the. re-
served seat capacity of 1888 were given
to seventy three people and there
was no public sale for the first two
games?
while the New York club report
shows that less than $50 tickets were
taken by its players and It's officials.

how the players and officials Of the
Philadelphia club appropriated 1900
tickets out OF its total Of SS3s?
'Inasmuch as there were no street
ticket spectators in New York dur
ing the worlds series--it being unlaw-
fu1--why do you not explain to the
public how 1t was that In the hotels

KNIT CAP IS MUCH LIKED
Simple and Useful, and Vet Fashion able, Adornment Is Altogether
 Unique.

Running close race with the Ty- rolean bell-shaped hat and threaten ing to forge ahead of it in popularity, is the Close-ftting little knit cap. Fashion, for once, seems to have de viated from her usual custom, and has prescribed something that is ex- tremely useful for her patients. There is no doubt that the knit bonnets are fetching when their two-color com bination is contrasted with the rosy cheeks and bright eyes of some young woman, and as for their usefulness, they are as warm as a stocking hat, are easy to wear, and even when they are perched carelessly on the head are much more attractive than most If the hats that are displayed on the streets.
 Primarily the knit caps are for the younger women and girls who can wear such smart fippant things, but with a long, hard winter forecast by the weather prophet, they are certain to be worn by older ones as well, for they are comfortable things to wear when one is skating or driving, or coasting down the park toboggans, when the need of protection Is felt To the northern climes Fashion owes a debt of thanks for one of her few sensible importations-th knit cap.

MODES FOR CHILDREN
SPRING GARMENTS FOR YOUNG
 GIRLS ALREADY SHOWN.
Tendency Is Toward Full Ungored Skirts, and CollarIess Neck Still RuIes-Pretty Little Frock of
 Bingham or Finer Material.

Dear me, how soon spring comeS!" the shopper thinks as she goes down the street these last days, for there already are the signs in the windows yards and yards of dainty wash fabrics, with all their various triIn- mings, in enchanting spring colors. How the window dressers get the un- cut fabrics to look so beautiful-to look so much like flowers and little children-is a mystery to the passer- by But there is everything folded over and puffed out and twisted this way and that in just the right manner. And when you inquire about prices the obliging shopman tells you, and truthfully, that everything will be dearer by and by, and that many of the lovely patterns now seen will not be reproduced.
 Really tiny children are in clover, for their frocks are the simplest, long bodied affairs, or else Mother Hub bard slips that hang from the shoul- ders, and at most pretty yoke or skirt frill trim these, and as quantity in wash things is now much more con sidered than quality the very modesty of the baby girl clothes makes it pos sible to have greater number of things.
 The illustration shows a smart little frock that might be developed from two kinds of gingham or be a much finer affair In little silk and wool In the present instance the frock Is of a figured challie trimmed with plain silk, and the way the bands are but toned down over the trimming is new and smart idea.
 In the way of color combinations for wash materials the main part of this dress might be made of blue or pink chambray and the trimming part of black and white. Or one part of the dress could be in a plain cotton and the trimming of figured or striped cotton in the same color. Again, the model Is admirably suited to a pret- ty childish silk, and with this. velvet ribbon could be used for the three bands back and front, and chiffon for the skirt border, bust band. sleeve edge and circular collar band.

STAINS UNDER THE NAILS
Lemon Juice and oxaIic Acid Will Re move Them-Use Pumice Stone
 on the Fingers.

There are various preparations sold to remove stains under the finger nails With careful laws most of these can be relied upon, but If there is any doubt about special preparation sub stitute lemon juice.
 As a stain remover it is excellent, and the woman who keeps half a lemon on the stationary washstand, where she washes her hands, rarely will have to blush for the unsightli- ness of her nails.
 Oxalic acid is also good, but Is in furious to some skins. It should be applied with a bit of cotton on the end of an orangewood stick. In using the lemon the tips of the fingers can be rinse well with clear water.
 Stains on the sides of the fingers are quickly removed with a moist pu- mice stone. This is invaluable to get off the first blotches after preserving painting or doing any disfguring work. In cases where the skin under the nails has roughened little pow dered pumice can be applied with an orangewood stick
 Never scrape away stain, it roughens both cuticle and nail and becomes a dirt catcher rather than dirt remover.
 Soaking the tips of the fingers in olive oil will help to keep the skin about the nail in good condition.

About the simplest possible opera bag is made of piece of satin, linen or moire, sixteen by seven inches, with q lining of china silk the same size.
 Sew bag material and lining togeth CT and stitch up the sides. Make slots for the drawstrings, thread silk cord through them. and there you are!
 Of course, if you wish to be a little more elaborate, embroidery and hand painting are in order, and then there are the little pockets inside for powder puffs, mirror, theater tick cts, etc. But the bag is certainly most easily made, and very pretty and dainty one it is.
