While the individual player that graduates from the uni

on the easy careless swing of the professional he carries

idea of craftsmanship than the town-lo player to whom

That IL is large thing. have no DOUBT. That Il
is Of immense Importance. ! have no doubt That
u Is a national issue have doubt. but ! do
contend that Il is not great n national issue
attending Ia the peoples business day by day.
Mr. President, Ia my opinion there Is a sacred
right TO hlbuster now and then when great cause
IS at stake, when great principle is at stake. when
a peoples civilization is at stake, when something
that is vital rs up for consideration and when II is
desired that Legislative action shall be held back
until the American people can take due notice and
instruct their representatives But this Is the first
time in my life have ever known the entire bust
ness of the country TO be held up by one-man
hlibuster, with no rhyme nor reason in it except
the constant iteration and reiteration of the phrase
Jones wants clerk. y | submit to my friend
from Washington that the issue is entirely too small
that the amount IN the pot Is entirely too little Tor
the ante demanded in order to play the game.
II does not concern these 900000O0 people
whether the senator from Washington gets an add
tional clerk or not. II is a secondary matter; in
fact, might say II is a sort of tertiary matter.
They are paying money every day for him and me
and everybody else TO stay here and attend to pub
lie business For the last three sessions of this body
they have been paying whatever it costs this body
to carry on days proceedings multiplied by three
IN order that he might impress the senate with the
idea that he needed and ought to have clerk, aud
perhaps that some other senators needed and ought
to have clerks.

slipping, just having dropped four
straight to Cincinnati, and the Cubs
are expected to get back some Of
the ground they lost at the other
end of the bridge.
The Cubs are playing bad ball.
Their feet, hands and brains have
taken a vacation at the same time.
If quick rally is not made the Pr
rates will climb ahead of our gang,
as Fred Clarke has at last welded his
team into shape to battle with the
best of them. Four straight wins
over Philadelphia has put Pittsburgh
only two games behind the Cubs and
the Buccaneers are playing so per
cent better ball than the EVers ag-
gregatiOn.
Murray Of New York got four sin
giles and a double yesterday, Fletcher
a double and three singles, and Doyle
a double and two singles. The Cub
runs were made on hits by Leach,
PheIan, Safer and Bresnahan.
The Athletics took the odd game
from Cleveland, Bender outpitChing
Kahler and Blanding. The Indian
eased off after his team had a ten
run lead. Barry of the MaCks raped
a single, double and triple, Strunk a
triple and two singles, and McInniss
three singles.
St. Louis hoped Bedient in the
first inning for enough runs to beat
the Red Sox, the good work of Leo
nard and Malloy, who followed, being
wasted. Hamilton was a puzzle to
Boston. Agnew Of the Browns
dubbed a double and two singles.
Joe BoehIing, Clark Griffith's
young southpaw, held Detroit to six
hits and won his ninth straight vic
tory. Washington got to Willett,
House and Lake when runs were
needed. Stanage Of the Tigers con-
nected for triple and two singles.

by injuries to BridweH and thinner
man, had another patch put on it in
the third inning, when EveTs kicked
himself out of the game on a decision
at second base when a Giant stole.
The Cub manager blew off some not
able OratOry with the usual result.
He was given the hook, Phelan went
to second, Leach to third, Mitchell
to center and the team went to
pieces. Tommy was a good third
baseman once, but he hasn't played
the position for some time. He in
aUgUTated himself by committing a
couple of errors on. ground balls,
having previously missed fly in CEN
ter, and Lavender began to wonder if
there was a conspiracy to make him
work longer than union hours.
Jim only pitched four innings, but
he did full games work in that
time. 1t took about an hour and
three-qUarters to play that much of
the alleged game. Eleven hits had
been made off the Montezuma mar
vel. Pierce was hit four times In two
innings, and Lou Richie, still called
a Giant killer in some quarters, was
jOlted for half a dozen hits in three
innings. Lou has a new system to kill
the Giants. He makes them run
themselves to death.
The pitching was punk, very punk,
but it was not below the grade Of
work put up by the rest Of the squad.
Lavender was toiling .manfully until
his support exploded and then SEEM
ed to lose interest. You can't blame
Jim for losing interest His mates
were beating him to it in losing the
game, so he had to lose something.
To get thrown down twice in one
series by your support is rubbing it in.

EXPERT
GIVES REASONS
FOR SLIT SKIRT
Colorado Pure Food Exponent De-
cIares Diaphanous Gowns Are
Kidney Disease Preventives.

DENVER. Sept 2O.-Wilbur F. Can
no, former State Pure Food Commits
sioner and friend Of Thomas A Eli
son, warmly defends the X-ray dia
phanous skirt and says that the pres
eut style Of gowns worn by women in
the East Is strictly moral. according
20 the Bible. Canuo gives five rea-
sons why slit skirts and "X-rays'
should be adopted by all women.
l. The "X-ray" and the slit skirt
afford free circulation Of air about the
body. Air is a tonic and stimulant
to the skin.
2. Absence OF so many underskirts
makes less weight upon the hips and
may be called prC phylactic meas
ure in kidney troubles. 1t may save
backaches.
3. Absence of the usual amount Of
clothes necessitates more frequent
bathing, thus opening the pores ana
causing freer Precipitation. This
means less burden on the ekidneys
Here comes in the argument that the
West is the natural home Of the
'X-ray." 1t is in a climate like Den
yer that sufferers from kidney dis
eases are more numerous. Where
there is much humidity these troubles
are fewer, owing to much persplring.
4. The latest fashion permits Of
freer movement Of the limbs and con-
serves energy.
g. There is less labor required IN
ironing. washing and taking care Of
clothes.
As to the moral issue In regard to
the question about skirts, Canno re-
lates that in I he Garden Of Eden
Genesis 1859 Adam and Eve were
not ashamed.
