FINE SANDWICHES

I in fnger-wide strips with bias ends
Spread one slice with Gllets of an.
chovies putting between the fish a
/ light sprinkle of hard boiled egg, with
white and yolk chopped separately.
Add paprila and a squeeze of lemon
juice, and put ON the tops

has the advantage OF being more ten.
der Boil the chickens in only enough
water to- cover them, adding an onion
and a tablespoonful of Worcestershire
sauce for each one. Let them simmer
until the meat is very tender, then
strip Oft the skin and shred the chick
en- up with the fingers. Put the filling
on a lettuce leaf, between thin white
bread, adding salt and cayenne be-
fore closing.
Bacon Sandwiches. Wisps Of
breakfast bacon, delicately broileL
make the most appetizing of sand
wiches, especially if put between
toasted sippets of graham bread. The
small shreddings of bacon must lie on
lettuce and be seasoned with paprika
or red pepper These are as appetiz-
ing cold as hot
Mayonnaise Sandwiches. Make a
piquant mayonnaise, using plenty of
red pepper and lemon juice on the
seasoning. Spreal on a bit of lettuce
put between fresh gluten bread,
trimmed of all crust Only a little
of the mayonnaise must be used, for
it is likely to drip with the heat Of
the rooms.
Oyster Loat-Vienna bread is the
best for this. Take a fresh loaf and
make an opening in the side, remov-
ing all the crumb, or as much as pos
sible, keeping the crust intact Fill
the hollow inside with little oysters,
like the native in San Francisco,
where the oyster loaf IS always in
great demand for the after-theater
supper. Season with a little salt and
pepper; fill up the spaces with the
crumb and bake in a slow oven The
oyster juices permeate the loaf, Civ
ing a most delicious flavor, and can
not fail to tickle the most sophisti-
Gated palate.

FASHIONS AND FADS.


Every ornament for evening wear is
characterized by the pendant craze,
long, slender and of a delicate pat
tern.
Whirls of breast feathers in various
tintings with high outstanding quill
points trim up hats remarkably well.
Bow knots appear as earrings and
as corsage knots
The new lingerie blouses' are to be
trimmed with tichus, set up high on
the waist and giving the effect of a
collar.
Gold and silver tissues are being
made into hats for exclusive wear.
and the trimmings of antinque gold
are chic, indeed.
Feather brushes intended for the
fronts of hats are worn in all colors
with preference for white on black
velvet hats
A chic idea for slippers to elabor-
ate costumes is the use of blacl,
chantilly lace over white satin, or OF
silver lace over black satin.
In Paris the large mats of white silk
beaver, faced with black velvet, are
running a race for favor, with the
small hats of tigerskin.
In fancy feathers, tall military pom.
pons are approval, and are worn in
marabou, ostrich and coque. White
marabou is the current fad.
Trimmings of worsted flowers,
which threaten to invade our shores
and deck our ready-made hats, have
been severely censured.
The tinsel cloth shoes of gold and
silver continue to be worn with cos,
tunes of all colors, and for house
gowns those of purple velvet are ap.
proved.
| The kimono shoulder will be worn
almost universally by misses, but the
new sleeve with the buffancy below
the elbow, is seen on some of them
/ 1t is quite fad to wear hatpins that
match the umbrella handle, and it is
the blond tortoiseshell, jasper and car
nelian sets that are liked the best.
! Among the most quaint hat shapes
for children are the Dutch bonnets
with the puff crowns and the striking
ly prominent sides curiously bent and
standing away from the face. This
style is built up in fascinating ways
the ears" being of contrasting mater
ial and quite ornamental Metal laces
are often employed for this purpose
Gorgeous new evening slippers are
shown this season to match the most
exquisite toilets. Those of black bro
cade, with emerald and gold, are most
distinguished with a black gown, and
many of the evening slippers have re
verified to the fashion of a former
time, and have ribbons attached that
are wound around the instep and an
kles like the sandals of a ballet girl

new double type of the ever-popular
gypsophila, so largely used with other
cut flowers in bouquets Very dainty

for the border or rockery, we have
had in pink only, but it now comes in
deep crimson, allowing for better
color effects and adding variety.
Golden Myrtle. - This perfectly
hardy vinca is a sport from the old
Minor" type, being larger Of leaf and
margined irregularly with rich golden
yellow. 1t will be a great acquisition
for cemetery, rockery. banks, window
boxes and shrubbery borders.
For the Shrubbery Border
In the shrubberys section there are
Some fine things to be had, some of
which are new, while others are great
improvements in existing sorts. They
all are worthy of Introduction.
Ever-Blooming Hydrangea.-This is
great acquisition, as it is of the
"Snow-ball' type, being covered with
masses of giant white blossoms, on
long stems. all summer and at times
when there is a scarcity of shrub
blooms. 1t is fine for single speci-
mems, as well as for massing and
hedges.
White-Bud.- This new shrub is a
white form of the old-fashioned Red
bud" or Judas-tree, one Of the most
popular of the early.howering shrubs.
1t is similar in all respects excepting
color-which is white
A New Jasmine.-This novelty We
owe to the Chinese, who have devel-
oped it from the old-fashioned 'nudi-
forum" type. While the flowers Of
the latter are quite small, this one
shows them with individual forsts the
size of a silver dollar, of clear dafo-
dill yellow. 1t is quite hardy.
A Cream Lilac.--We all love the
white lilac, one Of the nnest of al
blooming shrubs, and all who see this
cream colored one rave over it. The
flowers are large and very fragrant
and of a deep cream shade. 1t blooms
late in June after the others have
ceased The bush is broad and
stOcky.
Pure White Speedwell. The speed
wells have always been noted for their
graceful beauty, but have come only
in shades of blue, but this one is pure
white and will be in demand for boI-
quets and decoration. A great nov
city.
Bush Mulberry.-This is a sport
from the common white mulberry, but
it is of bush form, 1t has been graft
ed on tall stems and makes a fine
lawn specimen, where formal work is
desired

ORANGE CREAM.

Select oranges of good shape and
cut thick slice from the end of each
in such a way as to leave a strip
which will serve as a handle. Scoop
out the pulp, and squeeze. Mix the
juice with three times as much sugar
and three times as much milk and
freeze. The baskets are packed in
ice and salt until needed. Then they
are wiped dry, filled with the orange

Petticoats to wear under the fash

turally cut on narrow lines, but to en-.
able the wearer to walk comfortably
they are very often slashed below or

and white striped petticoat is cut on
the newest lines.

There are all sorts of things she

FIRST GUN OF THE
 1912 BASEBALL WAR

New York, February 11.-(Special.)-Th preliminary curtain will be rung up on the baseball season of 1912 next week when Manager McGraw of the New York Giants starts carload of recruits to Marlin, Tex, to begin training. Within a fortnight of that time there will be upward of 800 ballplayers in action throughout the south, getting ready for the big grind of the National and Amer ican baseball leagues next season.
 The migration of baseball teams to the south for the preliminary training costs nearly $25o.O00, but the magnates say that it. is worth it, for the American people demand the best brand of baseball that can be furnished and a season without preliminary training would exhibit poor showing indeed. The following is the list of training stations:
 National League: New York Giants. Marlin Springs, Tex; Chicago Cubs. New Orleans; Pittsburg Pirates, Hot Springs, Ark. Philles, Birmingham, Ala; Brook lyn, Hot Springs; Cincinnati, Columbus, Ga; Boston, Augusta, Ga.; St. Louis, West Baden. Ind.

 Several conferences have taken place between Smith and Elberfeld already, but they have ended invariably in mutual dis agreement and dissatisfaction; the kid has refused absolutely to confer with President Andrews, and from present in- dicatlon it will be many moons before any sort of an entene Is reached.
 Both President Andrews and Manager Billy consider Elberfeld an ideal man fo:' the position if his good will and spirit ual support can be secured, as he is in a position where he will prove as a steadying influence upon the youngsters about him besides covering his own terri tory in manner unequaled by any second saoker in the league unless it be Otto Jordan. Upon the offense the local prod uet is considered no less effective, as his PIP in the American with the trailing Nationals is considered by Manager Billy as equivalent to 300 in this circuit.

SCHWARTZ RELATES A FEW
 STORIES OF THE DIAMOND
BY BILL SCHWARTZ tsIanager of Na.hville,.

I Newspapers often blame the man, who is not responsible for a .boneheaded play,
 without knowing the details of play es-
 pecially the signal given. This happened to me some years ago.
 "One time I played under Walter East, who is now captain of the Memphis ball club We were having the best of success with the squeeze play, and were using it at every opportunity, when man was on third and one down. Our signal was given by the batter. who was at the plate, by tapping the plate with the bat. We had no trouble until the middle of the sea- son when the catcher on the opposing team happened to guess our signal, and broke up two of our plays. That night East called a meeting and changed the signal from hitting the plate to pulling up the pants leg with the left hand.
 The next day, with the score 1 to 0 against us. I was at the bat, with East on third and one down In the eighth in- ming. The same catcher, who had discov- cred our signal was behind the bat. Going up to the plate I thought that I would stall with the old signal and get a ball when the throw-out came, as the catcher was expecting the play. I gave the old signad and when the throw-out came just stood up and made no attempt to hit it.
 'T glanced up just in time to see East tagged out by the catcher. East looked at me with fire in his eye, and then asked him if he had not forgotten some thing. Then he thought and it came to him that he had forgotten the signal. Well, it's one on me- he said. and went on to the bench.
 The next day the papers had head-s line on the sport page in two inch type, Akron Loses Through Schwartz's Bone headed Play

fuses to sign, as did with Clark Griffith. the old gray fox never having been able to bring him into the fold, Sentell, who will be brought here for a trial at second base and shortstop. will be placed in the gap either permanently or until other arrangements can be- made. Under no
 condition will the vital spot be left un-
 protected as was the case last season after the sale of Perry and before acquisi- tion of George Mil. There Is no ob- jection to Sentell except his apparent in- ability to return the ball on double steals. Unless the ficl1le goddess of fortune de-
 mands expiation for presuming to under take a prognosticaton of two months
 anticipation the complexion of the ag-
 gregation which will represent Chatta-
 nooga in the 1912 pennant race may be de- fined even at this date.
 The pitching staff will undoubtedly be reduced to Coveleskie and Gordon. left handlers, and More, Chapelle and Mercer, | right handlers. The intended disposal of | Carmichael leaves the identity of the five | regulars matter of easy solution. | The two receivers are practically certain | to be Hannah and Moves. McDonough, in | spite of his experience, is undoubtedly destined for release, as his .15S with the
 willow will scarcely be condoned On the initial sack will be Coyle: this is an as- sured fact On second will be Elberfeld that Is if human agency can move him to sign; if not, SentelD. On short will be Balenti-this Is an assured fact Runser will work regularly at third with Honey Boy Evans of Bay City. Mich, as
 general nfield utility man. These two facts assured.
 The outfield will be composed of Moran,
 Duncan and Blitz. Roy is a certainty in
 left, but Duncan and Bltz have not been definitely placed as regards center and right. All of the men mentioned as regu-
 lars are already signed with the excep- tion of Mercer, and he has already agreed to terms.

MONASCO BUYS THE DECATUR FRANCHISE Club Will Be Either at Ens-
 ley or Bessemer
 PLANS FOR SEASON
Meeting of Southeastern League Will Probably Be Called in the Next Few Days to Act on the
 Proposition

F C. Monasco. a prominent insurance man of this city, announced yesterday afternoon that he had purchased the De. oatur franchise in the Southeastern league, and that the deal would be closed if the president of the Southeastern league should approve of it, His consent is necessary for it's consummation. The deal was closed with the Decatur authori- ties Saturday through the president of the club. Robert Cortner. MT. Cortner confirmed the statement of the buyer yes- terday afternoon.
 The present intention of the new owner is to place the baseball franchise at Ems ley or Bessemer Before either place may be represented by the team, the con- sent of the Southern league club owners is necessary. It is probable that they will agree to let Bessemer be represented by franchise, but there may be some trouble about securing their consent to the Ensley proposition, on account of it's close proximity to the Redwood club.
 Mr. Monasco stated that with the club franchise came IA players and that this number would constitute the team with other additions. He intends to manage the team personally, with an experienced player as field captain. He said he had heard that Breitenstein of New Orleans was desirous of getting a minor club to manage and that he would probably en- ter negotiations with him. He intends to act on his team as manager Charley Frank of New Orleans.
 The proposition of the site of the club is the point of discussion, as the new owner said that he would locate at the place which would be to his best interest. He said that he visited Ensley Saturday and those with whom he conversed were enthusiastic over the plan. He said that his present intention was to locate at Ensley.
 It Is probable that an incorporated z stock company will be organized to finance the club, with the present owner holding the largest block of the stock. He said last night that several business associates had spoken to him about get ting a part interest in the baseball prop osition and that he would probably take them in with him.
 Contracts have been sent out to the pldyeIs, AUu tHe ldter OeNtlOplltlllS VIII be announced later. The Southeastern league president will probably hold a meeting of the club presidents Thursday, or some time within the next two weeks, to decide on the proposition, and there the plan will either be adopted, which is probable, or will meet it's doom.
 Last night a prominent baseball man when his opinion of the move was asked said that it would probably be of interest to the whole Southern league territory that a Southeastern club would be placed near Birmingham, as New Orleans has secured a franchise of the Cotton States league That Birmingham would proba- by enjoy baseball the whole season was his opinion. He said it was probable that the schedule of the team located near Birmingham would be arranged so the team would play when Birmingham was away, and to play on the road when the Barons were at Redwood.

 It is said that a definite announcement of Jeffries plans will be made late this afternoon.
 Jack Johnson was inclined to be amused at the statements from Los Angeles that Jeffries again would challenge him to a battle for the championship.
 "Well, that's rich, isn't it?" he ex- claimed over the phone. Coming back for some more, is he? Well, l do not ob- ject.
 .'Of course couldn't make any reply to such a thing off hand. l would want to see what conditions he imposed in his challenge. If the money could be shown me, I wouldn't mind boxing Mir. Jeffries again at any time. He's the easiest thing I know, so why not?'
