CANTILLoN's MEAN REToRT

The presence Of Fred Falken-

this season with the Toledo Mud
Hens calls to Expert Ritchie's
mind the famous sale of that
player and Dave Altizer by Joe
Cantillon while the latter was in
Washington. Joe sold the tall,
slim pitcher and the bed slat
shortstop to Cleveland for $10,-
600.
The sale attracted considerable
attention at the time In the
newspapers, and Daredevil Da-
vid was greatly pleased over
the fact that his services had
been valued at at least $1,000.
According to Ritchie, he started
line of talk like that on the
bench one day Just before leav-
ing the Washington club, and
Pongo could not resist the temp
tation.

SHE BEATS AN ATTORNEY
AT HIS OWN GAME

Minneapolis, Mimi, March 2.
Albert H. Hall, a local attorney
with a bent for dramatic cross-ex-
animation, was much embarass-
ed, not to say peeVed, at the out
come of his questioning of wit
ness this morning. Halls client
was,successful in his suit, but not
until the attorney had been con-
siderably Inundated.
Bessie Rolph, proprietor, of a
beauty shop, was being sued for
back wages by former >employe,
represented by Hall. When the
defendant took the stand, Hall
looked at her in a manner that
was meant to subdue her and i'm
press her with the Nervousness of
her crime. The woman didn't
seem to mind it bit.
Madam" asked the attorney,
"do you remember a conversa-
ton you had with me short
time ago relative to this caSe?"

Don't evade, madam; don't

the way he was tangling up the
witness.
Don't think before I speak,"
shot back the facial fatterer.
Huh! I'm no lawyer. l always
think before I speak"
Hall was hustered, but he was
a glutton for punishment. He
again asked the woman if she re-
membered the conversation.
Sure" she answered. ''You
asked me if l could make you
beautiful and grow hair upon
your head, but 1 didn't take the
job
Miss Rolph smiled pleasantly,
and Hall was correspondingly
disconnected. He finally got the
woman to testify to a conversa-
ton connected with the suit.
Then his client was given judg-
ment.
I'm not reyengeful," explained
the attorney after the hearing,
''but you can bet your last lip

tickled to beat that woman. AS
