CUTS FREE
TO LOCAL MERCHANTS

Local Manager r. E. McGaughy, of
the Southwestern Telephone and Tel
egraph Company spent yesterday Wis
iting local merchants to ascertain
how many phone cuts they desired
furnished free by his company, that
they may use them in their newspaper
ads to encourage among the local and
rural residents the ordering of goods
from their business houses by phone.
This is new idea, original on the
part of the telephone company, and it
is proving most ponular with the mef
chants. 1t is advanced that the order
ing of goods over the phone is time
saving and convenient fethod and
that it has become habit with many
people. AS a means of increasing the
Bell telephone trade the telephone
company is furnishing the merchants
with the miniature cuts to enable
them to educate the public along this
line and to make their add more at
tractive. &, 9"isi ~,

after breakfasting with the Presiden-

carried rounded ones.

BIG RECEPTION IN JAPAN

TOXIC, Japan. December 6.-The Chi
cagO team of the American Base Ball
League and the New York team of the
National League arrived four days late
at Yokohama. the Empress of Japan hav-
ing experienced terrific weather on her
voyage across the Pacific.
So little coal was left in the steamer S
bunkers that it was feared at one time
she would be forced to make for northern
Japan. The captain, however, decided to
continue TO Yokohama, where the steam
er came into port today. slightly dam

went our on board tug to greet the
members Of the teams.
The game was played on the grounds
of X eio University and was made the oc-
casion for a great demonstration of well

the American way of doing such things
during their base ball trips to play uni

The world-tourins party was greeted by

were prepared days in advance and were
delayed by the dangers experienced by
the tourists in crossing the Pacific.
In true American fashion the opening
game of the foreign invasion was in
by President Eikicni kamada
of Keio University, who pitched the first
bail across the plate.
The-base ball party was officially wei

the Empress of Japan was reported near
Yokohama went out in a tug and met
the members of the teams and their
friends, accompanying them back to the
dock and facilitating their landing and
arrangements for the journey to Toxic
The tourists were delayed four days
by the worst experience that has been
encountered by Pacific ocean travellers in
years. The boat encountered terrific
weather during the voyage, and was buff
feted by constant storms during the first
ten days of the trip. These drove the
steamer far off its course and out or the
beaten track for transpacific travel.
There was danger at one time that the
steamer would be unable to complete Its
tourney on account of lack of coal.
Better weather conditions near the end
of the voyage tempted the captain to un-
dertake to continue to Yokohama now
ever, and he brought the steamer into
port today with so little coal In the
punkers that it would have been lmpos-
sible to maintain steam pressure in the
boilers many hours longer.
