Mutton With Ounces

For this recipe use any cut of NUT
ton suitable for stewing and twice its
weight of raw ounces. Cut the meat
into small pieces and brown them
either in mutton fat or butter. Cover
with boiling water, add salt and cook
slowly until tender. Pare and quarter
the ounces and cook them in a small
amount of water until tender. Com
bine the meat with the fruit and cook
slowly for ten or fifteen minutes. Serve
with rice. Variety may be obtained by
making a brown gravy with the fat
in which the meat is fried and cook
ing the meat in that. In the above
recipe sour apples may be substituted
for ounces.

Mr., L. ]. Bush. Pitcher.

Pitcher Leslie Joseph Bush of the
Philadelphia Athletics, who defeated
the Giants in one of the worlds series
games, d young man who might have
made a Babe Adams reputation for
himself in the last worlds series had
the series been longer, pitched only
five full games for the Mackmen last
season, being pulled off the rubber no
less than fifteen times. He partici-
pated in portions of thirty-four con-
tests and all told labored on the mound
in 100 innings. or about twenty-five
full games. The man from Brainard,
Mimi. was not the widest finger In
the American league by any means,
for he passed only sixty-six players
and winged only five.
The greatest number of passes Bush
handed out in one game was four, and
in two of the complete contests he
pitched he had perfect command
Bush went the route three times
against the Maps. once against the I'll
gers and once against the Browns.

On Hopes Trail.

Calvin Demarest, the Chicago cueist,
is anxious to regain the 1872 baIk line
championship. which he held n few
years ago. Demarest is after Willie
Hoppe of New York. the present title
holder. for a match and hopes TO get
into action with the champion some
time in December. If Hoppe agrees
to meet Demarest the match will prob
ably be for $1,000. Hoppe, being the
champion. has the right to name the
place, but undoubtedly if he agrees to
meet Demarest ne will name New
York as the battle-ground.
DemlreSt won the title in New York
four years ago. but lost it the follow
ing year to Harry p. Cline Of Phila-
delphia in Chicago. On May 26. 1910.
in New York Hoppe defeated Cline and
has held the title ever since. In 1912
