An excellent way of cleaning lamp
chimneys is to hold the glass over the
spout Of kettle of boiling water until
1t becomes well steamed, then polish
with clean dry cloth, and the glass
will be beautifully bright.
When making boiled buildings of
any kind try putting piece of creased
paper over the top before the cloth is
put on. This renders the cloth much
easier to wash, and keeps the pudding
nice and firm.
When steel knives are not in con-
slant use always wrap them in tissue
paper and lay them away. This quite
prevents them from rusting, and SO
saves the bother Of cleaning them
when they are required again.
Ground rice is excellent for clean
ing white cloth. 1t should be applied
with a piece Of clean white flannel.

The stalks may be very quickly re-

as hard as possible between them
This takes much less time than pick

effective.

were too surprised to even see the
funny part Of It, The crowd was
wild and I don't think half Of the
players or reporters noticed what
wonderful bit Of work It was on
Doyle's part.
The play came up this way: 1t
was on Forbes field at Pittsburg and
the score was close. We were lead
Ing by one run In the seventh In
ming, with Matty pitching great ball,
and 1t looked as II we were winning
and probably would win by even a
larger score, as We were hitting hard.
In the last of the seventh, however,
Byrne, who is fast and clever man
on the bases, reached first on an err
ror, and Leach, who was following
him at bat, cut into the first ball
pitched and drove 1t down between
ne and Doyle like fash OF lightning.
couldn't cut across In time to reach
the ball, and the only hope was that
Doyle could knock 1t down. Larry
came up a mile a minute, showed down
his glove and made the ball hit 1t.
He couldn't hold onto the ball, how
ever, and the speed with which he
was going carried him clear over 1t
and turned him around so that his
back was toward me. Leach was
coming as hard as he could sprint.
There wasn't enough time for Doyle
to pick the ball up and turn to make
q throw. 1t looked lost--but Doyle
played 1t another way. He realized
that he would lose the play II he
turned SO instead he snapped the ball
at me from between his legs, straight
as q die. The act was so unexpected

ing Byrne would be on his way to
third. Now. l didn't have to run ten
feet--at least not much more-and l
guess Byrne was twothirds OF the
way to third when l grabbed the ball
and shot at Devlin, and in the hurry
shot low. The ball hit Devlin on the
Sims, and bounded back perhaps ten
feet and up in the air. To my sur
prise, Doyle. who was cutting across
as hard as he could. grabbed the ball.
dived at third, drove Byrns back OF
the bag and tagged him out. He had
seen In a second that something
might DO needed at third and the mo-
ment he shot the ball between his
legs to me he started across--and was
Just in time to save another error and
stop Byrne. Pittsburg failed to score
and we held them safe, scored an
other run later and beat them.

LIFE OF THE SPIT BALL.
Ed. Walsh Says Successful Twirler
Must Use II.

Now comes the six-year old dis
cussion about how long the spit ball
delivery will last Recently some of
the critics have discovered that that
particular delivery is on the decline,
and that in a short time If there is
no baseball legislation against it. the
moist shoots will be thrown into the
discard. Ed. Walsh, star spit ball pit
cher of the White Sox, believes other
wise. Il might just as well take the
bull by the horns at the start and say
that the successful pitcher of the flu
ture, unless he has some other equally
as effective delivery. will have to
come to the spit ball or fall behind"
is the declaration OF Walsh.
Does the spit ball put the pitchers
arm out of commission sooner than
any other kind of delivery. 1t does not
and. in fact / might explain that Clark
Griffith, now manager of the Cincinnati
team, told me five years ago that was
done for as a pitcher on account of
that particular delivery Well. I have
used it this spring and 1t works just
as good as ever.
