IRISH LEAD DUTCH
AS BALL NAGNATES
Six to Two Is the Rating in
the American Asso-
ciation.

With the baseball battle on between
the Irish and the Dutch for artistic su-
premaCy the Irish are all to the good
In the names of the managers of the
American Association. Six of the eight
managers are Irish through and through
and there may be a drop of the blood
Hibernia in the veins of Bill Hinchman n
OF Toledo and Del Howard of Louisville
First, there is Jimmy Burke of Indian
apolls. Then there is Bill F'riel of Co.
lumbus, and Mike Kelley of st. Paul.
There is no doubt about the lineage of
Joe Cantillon of Minneapolis or Denny
Shay of Kansas City, or Jimmy Bar
rett OF Milwaukee.
Among these eight are some pretty
good managerial timber. Barrett is
having his first experience as a manager
and he has come out for young blood
the same as Burke and Mike Kelley.
Barrett succeeds John McCloskey, who
was one of the most lovable characters
in baseball
Handled Affairs Last Year.
Friel and Hinchman handled the af-
fairs of the Columbus and Toledo clubs,
respectively, last year. Both are ag-
gressive. Hinchman is still good enough
as player, though Friel has been
passed by the youngsters. Barrett, 1t
has been said, lacks that aggressive
ness that is necessary to win games.
Howard was something of a failure at
Louisville last year, but there may have
been other reason, than his inability.
Howard, 1t is said, is too we'll off in this

ming or losing. Howard. while a mem

Controlled Fort Wayne Club.
Last year he took hold of the Fort
Wayne club without knowing the names
of the men on the list, and fought 1t
out for the pennant, finising second.
With second rate team in 1908, Burke
fought it out with the Louisville team
with Indianapolis Carr that year had a |
bunch of stars, including himself, Mar
guard, Bush, Durham, Hayden. David |
son, Williamson, Livingston, Siever, and
others, all of whom played bang-up |
ball. Yet the Indianapolis team won
the pennant by but two games.
Joe Cantillon will be in charge of the |
champion Millers, sans some of the
players that helped him in the winning |
Of the rag. Cantillon is fighter all the |
time. He is of the same type of pug
nacious gentleman as Burke, Kelley,
Shay, and Friel. only perhaps to a more /
delightful degree. Cantillon takes more
stock in the value Of the veterans than
Ia the other managers. The old-timers
ran we'll for Cantillon last year, and
he is not the one to shake the men who
won for him. The rest of the clubs will !
pin their faith TO youngsters.

A Preliminary to House Building In

House building in the Shan States is
not such an easy matter as it looks.
Mrs. Leslie Milne, author of "Shans at

building of a bamboo house at Nam
khan, and, though the materials ar
rived, no progress seemed to be made
with the actual construction:

SINGING SANDS.
Peculiar Properties of These Curious
Freaks of Nature.

Freaks of Nature.
The most notable Of those curious
freaks of nature, singing sands" are
those of the Hawaiian island of Kauai
When a small quantity of this sand is
clapped between the hands it is said to
give forth a sound so shrill as actually
to resemble a boot. Put into bag and
violently shaken. the sand emits a
noise strangely like the bark of a dog.
Similar sands also occur in the Colo
RADIO desert, where also are TO be found
those curious nonsedentary sands that
continually travel hither and thither
over the vast plain of clay. Their
movements are induced by the winds,
and when a strong breeze is blowing
the particles of which they are COM
posed give out an audible humming or
singing.
Under the microscope these sands
show an almost perfectly spherical
form, so that they roll upon each other
at the slightest impulse, a circum-
stance that also accounts for the rapid
ity with which the sands travel over
the desert. One theory advanced with
respect to the singing" of these sands
is that it is due to an exceedingly thin
film of gas that covers the grains
Gathered and removed from the desert
the sands lose their vocal properties
