What WILL Happen
Insure O'TooIe
 For S25,OOO How
Barney Dreyfuss Takes Out Pol icy on New Pittsburg Pitcher from Minors

Pittsburg, July 26-President Bar ney Dreyfuss, of the Pittsburg Ball club, is not alarmed over the report from Cincinnati that John T. Brush. owner of the Giants has disputed Pittsburg's claim to the services of Pitcher Marty O'TooIe. It has prevj- ously been decided by the National Commission that no sale of a player is legal unless the proper signed docu- ments are passed, and inasmuch as Brush has nothing to advance but his own word against that of President Lennon of St. Paul, it is difficult to see how he has a chance of winning his point President Dreyfuss received the following letter from President Lennon yesterday morning:
 Enclosed find a copy of a teIe- gram which I sent to MT. Brush last night. Guess I made an ene- my of Mike Cantillon for life. He called up over the phone this morn ing before I was out of bed and said Comiskey had authorized him to go as high as S25, 900. I told him the deal was closed, and that O'Toole belongs to you"
 President Dreyfuss has made ar- engagements to have Pitcher O'Too1e insured for s25,000. This is life fn- surance policy. He has also applied for an accident policy. The reason for taking out the large life insurance policy is to protect Pittsburs for the sum which it paid for the release of the player.
 St. Paul, Mfnn., John T. Brush, President New
 York Baseball Club, New York
 City:
 ''The St. Paul club made no pro- position whatever to New York for the sale of O'Toole. His release has been sold to Pittsburg.

GOLD BEADS AGAIN IN rAv0R
Revival OF Old Fashion VIII Bring
These Ornaments From Their
Hiding Places

There has been a revival OF gold
beads Old strings OF these that have
lain idle for years can now be taken
from their hiding places and worn
around the neck. In case they are
furnished they can be cleaned with
hot soapsuds or a good polish. The
new beads are somewhat larger than
the old-fashioned ones: some are even
as large as a small marble although
they are not considered in very good
taste. A novelty IL a string OF alter
nate plain and chased beads. Often
the entire string Is Of incrusted gold
ones, but they are hard to keep clean.
A collar effect made OF rows OF
small beads is becoming to the girl
with a slender throat. One OF the
latest designs has nine rows. each
bead not larger than an ordinary pin
head. Gold beads are not especially
pretty when they are worn next 10 the
skin. 80 they can be used to brighten
a dark gown rather than for decol
lete frock.
