''wHY, ALL GOOD PITCHERS DOES THATl"

''wHY, ALL GOOD PITCHERS DOES THAT"
to who was the cry baby then. And
you inquire of Pug Nose if he in turn
can remember how, just because his
first pair of shoes with heels on 'em
tripped him and caused him to slide
downstairs on one ear, he yelled so the
neighbors came on from three houses
in every direction to find out what the
matter was.
The memories of both Fatty and Pug
Nose, not having had much work to
do, are excellent, and the situation be-
comes a bit strained. But at length a
compromise is effected on the grounds
of calling it strike, and the game
goes on.
Pug Nose comforts himself again,
and this time you soak at the ball, for
If they are going to call everything a
strike, no matter whether it is or not.
you might as well get something for
your time and trouble. Much to your
surprise your bat hits the ball. and it
goes sailing through the air high above
Pug Noses head. 1t takes you at
least seven seconds to realize that
you've hit it and another seven to re-
member that it is now your duty to
run to first base and back before Pug
Nose can get the ball and return it to
Fatty. Accordingly you cast the bat
behind you and start off for the base
like dog with a can tied to it's tail.
You reach it and turn for the back
journey.
There is great excitement. Fatty is
yelling to Pug Nose vociferous adjura-
tions to ''Chuck it homew and Pug
Nose, with the ball clasped affectionate-
ly in his right fist. is making valiant
efforts to overtake you on the return
trip. Seeing that his efforts are to prove
fruitless, he stops and throws the ball
to Fatty. By some fell chance he
gets the right direction and the right
distance as well, and you for you
have been watching him over your
shoulder) make up your mind that it
Is time to slide.
AS on one memorable occasion when
you elected this method of saving the
game you wore off all your forehead,
one eyebrow and a large section of
your upper lip. you decide that this
time you will select sitting posture
as one better adapted to the exigen-
cies. Thus it is that the last eight feet
Of the run are covered with desiccated
patches that the toll hardened maternal
fingers had sewed on with loving care
and linen thread. And as Fatty misses
the ball anyway you proudly rise and
grab your bat and stand ready for the
next ball, albeit you occasionally cast
an anxious eye over the horizon to see
If there are any of the other sex
about or liable to be about.
AT length Pug Nose. who is getting
tired, pitches you an easy one. You
swing on it and land hard with the
shingle. Away goes the ball. On and
on it scars. and on. while you and
Fatty and Pug Nose stand and watch

And then-Bing: Right in the middle

Fatty wavers for a moment between
injured dignity, professional pride and
the desire for advancement and final

mits that Pug Noses argument is
sound. Whereat you protest loudly
that they are trying to skin you and
that you guess you know whether it
was a strike or not and that if that's
the way they're going to play you'll
go home. At which they both make
faces at you and say insultingly:
"Yaaaa! Cry baby! Yaaaa! 7aaaa"
You thereupon become exceeding

Equipped Cars The

This is essentially the yea
 Of the completely equipped mo
 tor car," says R. D. Chapin
 president of the Hudson Motol Car Company. Season after
 season it has been customary ir
 the industry to charge the buy
 CT extra for tops, wind-shields
 nlagnetos, demountable rims,
 tire irons, etc., and the owner al-
 most invariably bought these parts later to be put on his car. This meant that, buying them separately. he usually paid a pretty good price for them. The Hudson Company has endeavor- ed, in it's 1912 line, to provide every convenience on the car that any owner could reasonably desire, and to include them all the list price of the car. Buying things in the quantity we do, we can thus list the car much lower than where the owner must buy the extras separately.
 "The policy of our company in this particular is simply an indi- cation of the trend of demand of the buying public. The average American now wants his car complete when he gets it, with out the necessity or the uncer- tainty of future expense in fit ting it up to suit him. We have simply satisfied his demand by { dressing up the Hudson cars with all desirable external equipment. In addition, of ss93YYrse, s3YYiras the car itself has under finement, from fr26'llfG}h process of re- forward end of the frame ID the. tail lamp at the rear.'

RIVER DAM TU

Fer }1-.l. G:tfic Road And Lighting Cities Of Northeastern
 Arkansas.

The street car line at Jones
 boro says the Sun, is now being
 planned in a different way by
 Preston Hatcher, who has been the promoter all along of the proposed line. In place of the motor system, as was first plan ned, 1t has been definitely de- clded to build a trolley line. Mir. Hatcher enlisted the partner ship of J. E. Thompson, several days ago, who is the promoter of the big dam near Mammoth Springs to supply power for the towns and cities of northeast Arkansas and will take hold of the car line proposition at once and now has it pretty well in hand.
 MT. Hatcher had the ties al- ready subscribed by large tie company to be paid for in stock. MT. Thompson on entering the company went 10 St. Louis and enlisted the cooperation of the s. Louis, Iron Mountain Compa- ny from whom he secured the 1 iron rails for the line, they to take stock for the amount of l +"eir value.
 The city cv..---., will ho oo1,od to allow the franchise sco oss changed to a trolley line and to allow them a reasonable amount l of time to get in shape for the construction of the line. The survey has been made and the right of way has been secured SO the main part of the work has been done, and there should be but little trouble in building the line, provided the electric power dam is built near Nam moth Springs.
 The business men of Jones' boro will be asked to take up limited number of first mort gage bonds. Instead of taking stock, bonds will be issued to H. nance the system, and they will be secured by the first mort Gage on the system.
 MT. Thompson, the promoter is now constructing the water system of Blytheville and IS 6 promoter of considerable repu- tation. He will ask for a con- tract from the city for supply ing electricity for the city light plant and, if granted, he states that he will have sufficient con- tracts to guarantee the bulld- ing of the proposed large dam near Mammoth Springs.

Attorney Gets Stiff Sentence.

l Little Rock, Aug. 7.-Sidnel
 J. Hunt, the Pine Bluff atto-
 hey, who assisted Prosecutine
 Attorney T. Havis Nixon in the
 habeas corpus proceedings in the
 case of w, s. Rhea, has been
 fined $5,000 and given six
 months in jail by Chancellor
 Martineau for refusing to fife with the court a copy of the tes- timony taken in the Rhea case.
 The Judgment of the court was for contempt of court, Chancellor Martineau having or dered MT. Hunt to furnish the court with the testimony taken at the habeas corpus proceed ings for use by the court and the petitioner.
 The contempt case grew out Of a misunderstanding between the attorneys relative to the en- ployment of a stenographer to report the testimony in the case. Mir. Hunt, one of the attorneys for the State, employed H. L. Sternberg, court stenographer of the Eleventh Judicial district, to take the testimony and Mir. Hunt testified in the trial for contempt that he employed Mr. Sternberg with the understand ing that his services were to be given to the States attorneys alone. On the other hand, X. ). Pindall, one of the attorneys for Rhea, furnished evidence to the effect that an arrangement had been made with Sternberg by which the petitioner was to have a copy of the testimony.

The Tribune, recognized as Chicago's greatest newspaper which has been independent in its political attitude, though supporting Taft in the last pres ldential campaign is, as evidenc- ed below, requesting the views of Arkansas newspapers and probably those of all states in this section, to determine public sentiment regarding what should be the action of the pres ident upon the tariff bills soon to be presented for signature or veto.
 Chicago, H., Aug. 7. Editor Independent:
 In your judgment, should President Taft sign the wool bill, the farmers free list bill and the cotton bill? Do you be- lleve the president should veto these bills and wait for reports from the tariff commission on on which scientific reduction can be based? Please telegraph reply at our expense.
