This will fill long felt want and will give the young women a chance to have outdoor exercise. All the young women and their friends will contri- bute articles which they do not need and they will be cleaned and fumigat- ed before being offered for sale. A similar sale was held several months ago and was complete success so the members of the club are hoping that this one will be no exception to the rule.

 Preparations are complete for the Elks dance which will be held March %. Invitations will be issued tomor row and the invitation list has been materially cut so that it is probable that there will not be quite so large an attendance as at the other dances of the present season, given by the order, which by no means will prove objectionable as the dances have proved so popular that the hall has frequently been rather crowded on these occasions. While it is the last dance that will be given under the auspices of the present entertainment committee there win be nothing be yond the ordinary in decorations or in other arrangements, just one of the enjoyable Elks' dances.

ST. PATRICKS DAY ENTERTAIN
 MENT

The St. Patrick's Dag entertain ment at the 4. M. C. A. Tuesday even ing was a very successful affair. The gallery was crowded with people and many visitors were on the main floor. The Copper Queen band played sev- erat selections which were much en- joyed. Mrs. J. J. Harrington sang the old and ever popular Irish song. Xii larney" with great expression. While she sang her hearers were taken across the sea to 'Erin's Isle where the grass is always green. There was a boxing contest by two young men and a similar contest by two boys who wore boxing gloves covered with lampblack. This contest proved very a7lEhable as the boy who was hit in the face most often had the blackest face at the end of the bout. The pro gram was concluded by short sketch, a dialogue between an Irishman and a negro which was very good.
 The 11th annual tall Of the Irish NationaIist's society was held March Is. in the old opera house. The hall was decorated in Irish flags and green bunting and the dance cards bore the flags of Ireland and the United States. Dancing was enjoyed during the even ing and at a late hour refreshments were served. The arrangement com mittee was as follows: Messrs. Harry Jennings, Chairman, iP.

mind Of the manager when they leave
for the coast in February.
BOrtOn assured of a berth with the
Sox in 1913, will probably put up a
much classier game than he did at the
flag end of the past season. When he
came in from St. Joe he must have been
a trifle worried and nervous over what
he would be able to accomplish He
went through the test in dandy
fashion and the spot which has been a
puzzle seems to have been solved.
Callahan, then, viii probably start
with the same infield with which he
finished this year. Morris Rath i'm
proved as the year advanced and will
be ready to step right in and guard
things around the keystone bag
Buck" Weaver will work the short
field and ROllie Zeider will be around
the third corner.
Lord in OutfieId.
The switch which put captain Harry
Lord into the outer garden seemed to
work in great shape.
AIattick proved good with the war
club in the late months and Will IN
dOubtedly flourish in the hitting col
umn of the league next year
Shane Collins looks like he has
cinched the job in the right garden.
Collins will be torn away from the
bachelor ranks when he joins the pale
hosed bunch next year.
In the catching staff Callahan is
well fixed During the waning NOM
ents of 1912, Jimmy brought in Ray
Schalk and Ted Esterly- Schalk is a
youngster who is bound to make good
in fast company. Easterly is going to
prove worth the money paid him for
his ability with the hickory.
Besides Callahan has Red Kuhn and
Jimmy Sullivan. The latter may not
be in his prime, but he's a good coach
to the young pitchers. Kuhn. the regu-
lar backstOp, is Walsh's regular re-
ceiver and he'll be on the job when
the term turns out for spring work.
Good String of Pitchers.
In the pitching department Cal has
a good string to start with Walsh viii
be the same old bull moose, a hard
man to beat when he's feeling at his
worst. White, Benz, Cicotte and Lang
are still working on the pay roll and
they'll undoubtedly have the same jobs
when the getting away time comes
Although there's been a lot of talk
about Ping Bodie going back to the
minors, none of it seems to have foun-
dalton.
Callahan can still go out and cavort
around the pasture with the young
sters, but he'll probably not pick out a
job for himself-that is. permanent
One-until the season is we'll advanced.
Kid" Gleason will surely be with the
trainlOad. Gleason, the biggest little
man in baseball" is a clever chief ad-
visor and the Sox would hardly seem
the same without the kids" name on
the roster.

. Mind you, the boy never lacked
courage" said Donovan. I'D be the
last man to say that, but he was ner-
vous and high strung. He worried him
self all the time. A phIegmatic man
would have won from Sullivan more
easily than Corbett, for he would have
carried the fight to him faster. Any
one could have whipped the old fellow
that night He was sore AID slow and
fat, and getting old"
On the train bound for New Orleans,
where the fight was to be held, Cor
bett was nervous, restless and Surly.
He quarreled with Donovan because
the latter held Sullivan too cheap,
Donovan says. But Donovan coaxed
him into good temper and Corbett won
on the leather.
7 thought you'd win that fight
quicker" said Donovan that night
sullivan wasn't dangerous"
Corbett began to make excuses, but
Donovan sOothed his peeTish spirit.
No matter now" said he. You won,
and that's enough. I'm satisfied" Cor
bett felt that he had been criticised
and sulked. Donovan cautioned him on
the way to the dressing room not to
get the big head because the crowds
are cheering you They'll cheer the
other fellow when you get out" Cor
bett smiled an assent, but he visibly
expanded as the great men Of the
sporting world crowded into his dress
ing room to see the man who had won
from the invincible Boston boy
Then there came something that I
shall always be sorry for" said Dono-
van. I'll never forget it Corbett was
IN his dressing room, with all OF US
around him, talking and congratulate
ing him, when there was noise at the
closed door. We all turned.
THE door was perhaps seven feet
high, with a transOm over it. AS We
watched Bob Fitzsimmons' head came
in view. He looked the happiest man
in America His mouth was stretched
in a grin and his blue eyes fairly
sflone with glee. And he just dubbed,
he was that wen pleased. He shook
yellow envelope at Corbett-
AYE, jim" said he. Aye, JIM
Here's a telegram from homer
1T was just a big, red headed, blue
eyed boy shouting to his chum- But
Corbett turned his back on him and
called out loud enough for Fitz to hear:
One Of you take the telegram from
the fellow. III have nothing to do
with him
Fftzsimmo1sas face changed IS
though he had been struck with a
knife He got down from where he
was peekiug through the Gransom very
slow and careful. as though he had
been badly hurt physically. He handed
in the telegram through the crack OF
the door, and that night he broke down
and cried.
"Tf it's the last act Of my ring life,
PlI lick Jim Corbett,' said he. 1t was
an odd coincidence that the reports
from philadelphia tell how Corbett,
coming out from the ether, cried for
his hsndlers: Tn not whipped yet.

HICAGO, Ill, Dec with the
west side aggregation Of base
~ ballers talking trade, talking
swap" and talking bunk" the Com
iskey crowd of FASTENERS on the south
side seem to be worrying not and it
looks as if there would be little doing
in the stove league" line of gossip
out that way any time during the win
ter
owner Comiskey and manager Gala
han seem to be satisfied to keep out
of the strong glare Of the calcium.
The White SOx put a dandy finish on
to the season and feel that they have
swell chance to cop when the bugle
starts off the paStime in 1913. And
there are others who figure the dope
sheet the same way.
For years the SoX have been q first
division team, but they haven't been
able to pull far away from the 300
mark in the last two seasons. This
last year they started out in winning
style, but weakened during the middle
of the season long enough to slide
down in the percentage column and
they weren't able to climb back before
the race was thrown into the discard
We might say that the season wasn't
long enough to allow them to climb
back to a point where they could see
daylight. At the finish they were going
in the shape and the last game they
played was a landslide in their favor
and they were battling against the
Cubs, a club which finished much bet
ter in the National than the SoX did
in the American.
Faith in White SOx.
Now the rOoters of the south side
figure that the Sox will keep the pace
over the winter and in the spring will
blossom forth in flash style and keep
it up. Callahan has a great aggreSa-
ton and If he can get them started
and keep them going, Chicago really
ought to have the bunting out south at
the finish of the next race.
Even if Callahan plays the game
next year with the same lineup that
he finished this year he ought to have
but little trouble in keeping Chicago
right out in front. There's been little
talk of trades. but the old Roman will
probably swing a few deals before the
1913 season opens and the Sox will
probably be strengthened
In the last months of the past sea-
son a hole was filled on the South side
that has long been the worry OF the
management and rOOters. It's the
first base job That's been constant
thorn for some time and when Bill
Borton came in from St Joe after
successful season in the Western
league it was found that Bill could
hold down the corner in grand style
and it's a care that won't be on the
