HE CARRIED AN UMBRELLA.

A dear old lady who was very "sot"
In her prejudices was asked just why
she didn't like q certain man. She had
no particular reason that she could
think Of at the instant, but she had been
so emphatic in her expression OF dis.
like that she knew she would have to
find some excuse--at once. Just at that
moment she happened to glance out OF
the window and saw him passing by.
He carried a neatly rolled Umbrella
though 1t hardly threatened rain.
Quick as flash she answered her
questionet, "He carries an umbrella
whether it's raining or not-he Is a
ssoftie.'"
But" said her friend. also looking
out of the window, here comes your
son William, and he is carrying an UNI
brella."
This did not stump the old lady. "But
that's another matter-I don't like him
anyhow-and besides, 1t all depends on
who carries the umbrella" she replied
triumphantly.
That is the position some people have
taken regarding that wholesome and
refreshing beverage Coca-Cola. They
have said good many unkind things
about it and in each instance have had
1t proved to them that their tales were
not true.
Finally they seized upon the fact that
| Coca-Cola gets much of It's refreshing
deliciousness from the small bit of caf-
feline that it contains. They looked upon
! that as a splendid argument against 1t.
Then, like the old lady who was remind
ed of son William, they were reminded
that 1t Is the caffeine in their favorlte
| beverages, tea and coffee, (even more
than In Coca-Cola) that gives them
their refreshing and sustaining quail
| ties.
But does that stop their criticism of
Coca-Cola for containing caffeine? No
their answer is similar to the old
ladys-they say But that's another
matter"-what they mean is Being
prejudiced against Coca-Cola and lik-
ing tea or coffee, it all depends on
what carries the caffeine"
We think the joke is or them-for
caffeine is caffeine, and If 1t Is not
harmful in one it can't be harmful In
another. We all know that 1t Is not
harmful in tea or coffee-that 1t Is
really helpful in whatever 1t is-this
is bound to include Coca Cola.
OF course, the truth Is, that having
started an attack on false premises and
having had what they thought were
good reasons for criticism proved to
be no reasons at all, they are graspine
at an excuse which does not exist, to
explain a prejudice. So you see, after
all, 1t all depends on who carries the
umbrella to people who are determined
to be unfair. Let us be fair.-Adv.

Brooklyn, N r. April s.-Philadel- phia beat Brooklyn in the special opening game of the National league season which marked the formal occu- patton of Ebbets field. The cold, raw wind kept the attendance down, but did not affect the players. who put up a remarkable battle. Both Seaton and Fucker pitched brilliant ball. the for mer just Shadino the noted SOuthpaW in l to 0 shutout.
 Benny Meyer, the heavy hitting re- cruit from Toronto, lost the game for Fucker in the first inning. With one cut Knabe doubled to right. Meyer Iauffed Loberts foul in the sun field, but Stengel overcame this error by making a sensational catch of a long fly from the same batter. Then Meyer muffed Magee's fly. letting Knabe in with the only run of the contest. by grabbing Dolan's single and cut ting off Magee by great throw to the plate.
 Neither side was able to score there after. Fucker was taken out in the eighth, when with one out Fisher and Miller made scratch hits and Callahan was sent in as a pinch batter. The little substitute from Elmira forced Miller and Stengel was out on a cork ing stop by Doolan. This was Brook iyn's best chance to score. Ragon pitched the last inning and showed good form.

BASEBALL SEASON OPENS
 IN MAJOR LEAGUES.
Formal Openings in Seven Cities To- day-The "Jinx" Again With High flanders.

New York April 9-F1ring will be- gin along practically the entire line to- morrow in the major league baseball circuits. The preliminary gun in Brooklyn today was set off with a considerable boom, but the big artil- ler!7 is due to get into action now. There will be formal openings" in seven cities tomorrow afternoon, and the race for the flag in both the Ma tional and American leagues will be on in earnest
 Philadelphia, which by virtue of to- days victory over Brooklyn on the lat ter's new field in the only game of the day, holds undisputed possession of first place in the National league race, will have Brooklyn for an opponent again tomorrow, but with the scene of the encounter changed to the Quaker City. Here in New York the cham pion Giants will meet the BOstons- In the west St. Louis plays at Chicago. The Cincinnati field has been adjudged not open there until Saturday
 Red Sox vs Athletics.
 There was no preliminary opening in the American league, and the first games in that circuit are scheduled for tomorrow. The Boston Red Sox, the present worlds champions, play on their home grounds with the Phtladel- phia Athletics. Chances New Yorks play in Washingon. In the other half of the circuit the openings will be at Cleveland and St. Louis with Chicago playing in the former and Detroit in the latter city.
 Aside from the enthusiasm incident to the annual opening of the seasons play, varied reasons are responsible for especial interest in the showing several teams will make in tomorrow's contests. Boston and Philadelphia are admittedly strong rivals for the Amer ican league championship; both teams are in fine fettle and a notable strug- gle betweD them is anticipated. The form which the National league cham pions will show in their game with Stallings' men here is also a matter of interest. Johnny Evers will make his debut as a big league manager at the head of the Cubs in the game with St. Louis
 Jin, With New York.
 Frank Chances New Yorks, pursued as in former years by the .jinx'' with several accidents to the teams main stays already recorded, will go into it's game with Washington seriously handicapped. Detroit will be without the services of it's brightest star Tyrus Cobb who is still a. holdout.
 In the game here Tesreau for New York and Perdue for Boston are the probable pitching selections.

New York. April 9.-After 3 showing O< strength in the early trading. the stock market turned heavy today, some of the leading issues falling more than two points from the best prices Of the morning. Trading was active at times and movements were irregu- lar. The improvement of the morning was based on the more cheerful feel ing abroad, cable advices reporting g betterment of both political and fnan- cial affairs. London bought about 5000 shares here. specializing in Erie. Bul traders operated confidently for 8 tune, buying large blocks of the fla vorite issues and forcing further short covering.

The point of interest in connection with the St. Paul issue was that the company found it necessary to pay 1-2 per cent, previous issues under the general mortgage having been made at 1-2 and per cent. St. Faul general fours have declined two DC ,nts in as many days and bankers predicted that the effect of the high rate uf interest on this class of bonds would be felt by other issues of simi- lar character.
