On President Taft's appointment list
was this brief entry: "Phillis Wister.
and Lander, (To Be Kissed)." When
that item caught the Presidents eye
as he sat down at his desk yesterday
he looked about his office and over in
one corner saw little girl with blonde
locks looking eagerly at him. Beside
her was a woman evidently her
mother.
"Well, Phyllis" he said, as he rose
from his chair, "Shake hands. So you
want to be kissed by the President OF
the United States"
yes, sir" she lisped.
well said the president, as he
raised her high in his arms and kissed
her fairly on the cheek, 81 hope you
will remember that"
Phyllis is four years old. She re
gently went through the White House
with her mother and some friends and
announced that she would never leave
Washington until she had been kissed
by the President.
She was so persistent that the
mother wrote to the White House and
finally made an appointment with Mr.
Taft.
Phyllis left for her home in Wyo
ming today, quite satisfied.

The use of the flesh of dogs as a
food for man is becoming common
even in Berlin. From sheer necessity
the German working man has long
made horse meat substantial portion
of his daily fare but, while Saxony
consumes thousands of dogs annually,
the practice of eating this meat has
not until recently invaded Prussia.

All commissions of constables in the
state of South Carolina and those OF
all commissioners of deeds for South
Carolina in other states and foreign
countries are revoked in proclama
ton received by local newspapers from
Governor Cole Blaisdell early today.
The proclamation was for publica

the commissions.
According to the proclamation it is

Pardon our tears.
We are very close to the cellar
door, and If someone should care
lessly leave it open we might fall
in. Sad tidings from the seat of
war inform us that the Tiger bat
taliOns fell before the fierce on
slaught of the Colt regiments at
the ratio of 3 to o yesterday.
Even Kid Kurfuss, the youthful
star, was unable to check the Port
land brigades.
In the fourth period the firing
became so hot that Kurfy retired
from the line and went to the
army hospital on the sidelines.
Effective sharpshooting by Moh-
Ter, Melchoir, and other Zouaves,
coupled with poor generalship on
the part of Keller and McMullin,
were in a large measure respon-
sible for the failure of the Kid.
Eastley pitched for the Colts
and was in good form all through.
Whenever the Tigers got chance
to rush man over the pan, some
body whitfield and it was all over.
Bert HOlderman, who played a
sensational first base for the Ben
gals last year, will return from
the Pittsburg Pirates to play that
position for Tacoma. HOlderman
is a hard hitter and fields his po-
sition nicely.
1t is likely Lou Nordyke will
cover first for the Bees, unless
his salary demands are too exorbi-
tant for Mike Lynch.

Mckinley Park defeated Bis
marck Tuesday evening by a
score of 3 to IL after a battle of
pitchers. North and Ferguson
carried away the batting honors.
The batteries: Mckinley Park,
Ferguson and Draws; Bismarck,
Davis and Carlson.
Lou Nordyke was the highest
salaried player in the league.
Christy Mathewson sustained
his firset defeat of the season
Tuesday at the hands of St.
Louis.
Ty Cobb's holding out stunt has
not dimmed his brilliant work on
the diamond. Out of three times
up Tuesday he clouted two dou-
bles and triple, stretching a sin
gle into one of the two-baggers.
Incidentally, he stole home. They
were playing the Athletics.
First Baseman Brooks of Vic
toria broke a small bone in his
ankle sliding to first Tuesday and
will be out of the game for some
time.
Ruell's ankle has improved so
that he is able to get back In the
game for the Bengals.
Holster played third base Tues
day for Vancouver, while Dode
Brinker cavorted around at his
old station in left field.

FRED FAIIKENBERG.

Cleveland farm, Falkenberg was
sent to the American association
team. He had a great season in
Toledo, perfecting the fade-away
ball, which has had much to do
with Christy Mathewson's sue
cess.
Falxenberg was called back to
Cleveland when Manager Birm-
ingham saw how good he was and
this spring has proved to be the
star not only of the Cleveland
team, but of the American league.
1t Is Falkenberg's pitching
more than anything else that has
put and kept the Maps near the
top OF the race. Even the great
southpaw, Gregg, has had to bow
to the lanky hurler, baseball's
champion comeback.

The release Of Lou Nordyke by
the Tigers in all probability marks
the passing of, in his day, the
king-pin Businessman of the
Northwest, both in the field and
at bat.
Lou has been playing ball for a
number of years, however, and his
eye Is not so keen as 1t once was.
Chances on first which were once
SO easy now come hard to handle,
and the old ability to slug the
horsehide does not seem to be
there.
Pretty nearly every club on the
circuit has had Nordyke on its
roster, and he was always a most
dangerous man both on the Of
Tense and defense. He formerly
managed both the Victoria and
the Vancouver teams. He started
with Victoria last year, but broke
his leg, and was out of the game
all season. Lou has also played
with the Spokane Indians.
Older fans will remember him
as the firstsacker of the famous
Tacoma Tigers under Mique Fish
er, back In 1904 and 1905, when
this city was in the Coast leaguey
and had the best team 1t ever
boosted.
Even IL Nordyke does not
catch on with some other club In
this league, he has nothing to
worry about. Over at Wenatchee
Lou owns one of the finest fruit
orchards In the country, which
makes him financially independ-
ent.
Lou was the highest salaried
player In the league, and was
released at his own request.

High School Notes

BY Olin Graham.
The cripples, Spike" Roberts
and Harry Deegan, are improving
slowly.
1t looks as IL Bandy were go
ing to smash some of his own rec
ords in the state meet.
Staatz is still having trouble
with his ankles, and is not sure
whether he will be able to enter
the state meet or not.
II Crane or any of the other
athletes at the high school wish
to attend the A. A. U. games at
Chicago in July, they will either
have to join some club affiliated
with the A. A. U. or pay their own
expenses, as the school board has
no authority to do so.
1t will be decided who Is the
fair tennis champion at the high
this week, and several girls are
playing hard to cop the honors.
Irma Frazier seems to have an
edge at present.
With Mulvey and Deegan in the
440, Stadium high has brace OF
runners who should cop the first
two places.
Crane Is working hard in other
events besides the high jump. AL
has always been an all-around ath-
lete.
