GOOD CAUSE FOR REJOICING
Young Baseball Player Disllked The

1t is the custom among some of the
New York theatrical managers occa.
slonally to entertain the members Of
the local ball teams at their theaters
A young recruit from the high grass
Joined the Giants one day. and that
night went with his new teammates
TO a play as guests of the manage
ment.
The piece did not appeal to the men,
though, and they failed to applaud
with any degree of heartiness. After
the curtain fell McGraw scolded them
Tor this lack OF warmth.

King Peters Paris Attic.

There is today in Paris a concierge
who is reaping a small harvest of tins
from visitors to an attic which a quar-.
ter of century ago was tenanted by
no less a parsonage than the present
King OF servia in the less palmy days
of his pretendership. The agreement
can also be seen by which Peter
karageorgevich hired the attic for the
annual rental of $50 francs, which
was really rather exorbitant, consid-
ering the neighborhood in which this
erstwhfle abode of royalty is situated
The concierge has been offered large
sums of money for the agreement,
which contains King Peters auto
graph, but he refuses to part with
such q valuable source OF income.

NEW CASTLE, Del, Aug. 15.-Dr.
R. R. Roth, who recently was elected
president OF the board of health, in
speaking of the general health of the
city to a reporter of THE EVENING
JOURNAL last evening, said il was
exceptionally good and that while he
considered the water supply as good
as any city could boast Of he thought
the question of the city's milk sup
ply the most important matter to be
discussed at this time. AS licenses
to milkmen are to- be issued before
September / and an inspection Of all
the milk brought here is to be made
once a month, it is safe to assume
that the milk supply will be protect
ed in the future. The licenses do not
cost anything, but a failure to get a
permit carries with It a penalty. DR.
Roth is to forward to the State Board
OF Health every month the report of
his inspections of all milk and in
this way the State Board will CO.
operate with the local health au-
thorities in seeing that the towns
milk supply is of the best.
While speaking of the city's health. DR..
Roth suggested that the children of the
city be cared for. as they were the most
valuable asset of the State. He sug-
gested that New Castle have a play
ground, where the children could he

and automobiles. The most feasible place
for such a playground which appears to
be favored by many, is the school green.

PRES. WILSON CANCELS
PANAMA TRIP
He Will Remain in Washington Until
Currency Bill Is Passed-only Short
Trips to Cornish.

Washington, Oct President Will
son has determined to remain in Wash
ngton as long as the currency bill is
under consideration and has abandoned
the idea OF going to Panama this fall,
unless the currency legislation can be
concluded sooner than is expected,
Neither will the president plan for any
extended vacation at the summer cap
ital at Cornish, n H. The president
began the day plunging into the cur
rency question with Senators Owen and
Shafroth and Secretary of the Treasury
MeAdoo. Following this conference it
was said that progress had been reported
and that work OF framing the bill as it
will be presented to the Senate later was
progressing satisfactorily. AS far as
the Panama toll question is concerned,
the president does not contemplate an
early message to Congress and certainly
will not take up the question seriously
until he has visited the canal. If the
currency measure is not passed until
late fall or early winter the president
believes he can find time to visit the
canal in December or January.

permission to erect a store structure

someone brought up the question of al
lowing Youngsters the privilege of build
ing shacks around the city without

some that the nuisance usually arising
from the presence Of shaeks in secluded
places could be abated. The matter was
referred to the police committee with
instructions to investigate.
