LOOKS
LIKE SURE WINNER
OFLEAGUE REMNANT
With Only -Four Weeks More to Go Coolers Have
Lead of Eight Games Over Colts and Twelve
Over Roanoke Laying Plans Now for
Getting Winner Next Season
BY GUS MALBERT.

Just four weeks remain Of the Vir-
sinia League pennant season. Each
club in the league has thirty-two
games left on the schedule. Some
have one or two more, accounted for
by postponed games. Though it goes
against the grain, Petersburg. with
an eight-game lead on Richmond and
twelve games in front of Roanoke, is
an almost certain winner in the race
There is no need for repining. Rich
mond has put up glorious fight in
the face OF misfortunes that would
have overwhelmed men Of less stout
heart. Likewise these same men are
game enough to praise the club that is
out in front. Heinie Busch deserves
credit, all the credit that can be
heaped upon him His club got away
to a bad start. and the going was
good and fast before he came up In
the race. He won the pennant the
first year he grabbed the managerial
reins and lost it last year only in the
shadow of the wire. the last game of
the season determining the result. He
came back this year, and. after MAX
ing many changes. has put together a
winner.
We would Rave had Richmond win,
but since the fates have decreed other
wise. we are very glad 10 take off

GINA League for 1914. We haven't
quit; not by any means. and there is
possibility that the Colts may land
on top yet. However, this possibility
Is SO remote that we are basing no
hopes upon it.
We have nine games to play with the
Coolers. and should we be able to get
away with all of them the standing of
the two teams would be considera bly,
changed. In the light of past perform

met. we are not overjubilant about ac-

by winning 80 per cent OF the battles
while Richmond must so at better

Piu Hunts Rabbits,

J. H. Landlord of Lewes, Md, a vii
1age just across the lower Delaware
line, has a pig that hunts rabbits and
joins In chases with its owners dogs
This pig is thoroughbred of the
Chester County White variety and ia
known as Sir Grunter. 1t first saw
the light last August, and was allowed
to run Ground the Landlord home
stead with pair of rabbit dogs, and II
followed the dogs to the woods and
hunted with them.
When the rabbit season opened and
the rabbit dogs went on hunt the pig
followed. Mr.. Landlord tried to fasteu
up the animal, but in vain. Finally he
gave the pig its liberty and permitted
1t to follow the dogs at will.
MIR. Landlord says he will endeavoi
to train the pig so that it will hunt
without dogs.

Oriuin of the Menu.

The menu, so indispensable to the
ordering of satisfactory dinner today
had its origin IN the twelfth century,
the first person to use it being Prince
Henry of Brunswick. At large ban
quet he was seen to consult from time
to time long paper at his side, ap
parently attached to the under side
Of the table cloth and rolled back
One inquisitive guest at length made
bold to inquire what study he might
be engaged in at that apparently un
seasonable time, and Prince Henry
explained that 1t was a paper on which
he had noted down the details of his
dinner and that he wanted to be sure
that all his instructions had been car
ried out
The simplicity of the idea STRUCK
the fancy of the guests and from thai
time the menus became the fashion
In it's primitive form it was of sucl
dimensions as to resemble wall maj
and was given a position at each enc
of the table, the guests at the banque
being permitted to consult it.-Har
per's Weekly.

That dose saved your life" said the
gambler, in Modified tone, and the
next day he had a streak Of luck and
paid the money lender in full. The
money lender was much pleased with
this honesty, and when the gambler,
few weeks later, called and asked
for a newsloan, he was readily accom-
modated. The gambler, having peck
eted the new loan, sat down, dipped a
pen in the ink, aud selected sheet
Of paper whereon to write the usual
acknowledgement But the money
lender hastily interposed. Hold on,

cupboard. "Wait minute, my friend
Would you mind writing it on this
