One Is inclined to say, what taya

the figures showing what the twirlers did
in Ban Johnson's loop. Johnson worked
in just fifty-one games during the sum-

Towards the close of last season, when
his critics got to panning him rather

Two Associations VIII Fight
for Federal Recognition.

Chicago. Oct. 29.-The question OF
peace between organized baseball and
the Federal league will be considered
at the meeting of the National Asso-

November 1912, it was said here
Wednesday night. 1t Is reported the
minors will demand action to end the
warfare.
Byron Bancroft johnson. president
Of the merican league, has returned
from an outing in Wisconsin and says
that the national commission will be
represented, probably by himself, al
the Omaha meeting.
Two minor leagues have already In
dictated that they will favor the TAX
ing into organized baseball OF the
Federals President NJ. E. Justice OF
the Central association is the leader
in this movement. and he has the
backing of the Northern league. OF
which John Burmeister is chief.
President Justice, who is an ofncer
of the national board of arbitration,
asserted that minor leagues had SUI
fered heavy losses last season because
of the falling off Of drafts by larger
teams. He attributed this slump to
fear on the part of the National and
American leagues that any finds
pointed out by drafts would be
snapped up by the Federals.

To Keep Skin Healthy.
Youthful. Wrinkleless

Now that the social season Is here, be
especially careful to keep your skin In
fine condition. You know how conspicu-
GUS complexion defects appear under
the bright light of the drawing or
ball room Also how very evident are
some makeups when similarly illumi-
mated. l have myself discarded cos
metics entirely, using a process which
gives far better results. and which leave
no trace on the skin At night smear
on a thin coat of ordinary mercolized
wax, washingfit off next morning. This
gradually absorbs the devitalized parti-
cles of surface skin: just as gradually
the more youthful skin beneath comes
forth. providing a complexion as clear,
smooth and delicately tinted as a young
girls. Get an ounce of mercolized wax
at your druggists and try this remark
able treatment.
Remember, too, that wrinkles, even
the finer lines. are not easily concealed
in brilliantly lighted room. You can
quickly oblfterate these hateful marks
by bathing your face in a solution OF
powdered saxolite, 1 o., dissolved in
witch hazel n pit. And your face won't

1t is understood that the claim will
be made to this Government that the
standing army of Hungary, number
ing 100000 soldiers under General
kossuth, stands ready 10 fight for
freedom. In addition to political
pressure 1t will be charged that the
citizens of Hungary are being forced
to pay tribute of $25000,000 annually
to Emperor Franz Josef in addition
to a system of taxation which is rap
idly impoverishing the country.
A member of the diplomatic corps
here to-day pointed out that a sue
cessful revolution in Hungary would
mean realignment of the powers in
Europe and necessitate a readiust-
ment of the balance of power
He said: The first effect of the
separation of Hungary from Austria
would be the weakening Of the latter
power to such an extent that 1t would
no longer be a valuable factor in the
triple alliance of Austria, Germany
and Italy"
It is expected here that Italy would
naturally extend a helping hand to
Hungary as against Austria. What
Weakens Austria will always prevent
the aggressons of Austria on Italy
which has been the rule of history for
many generations.
1t is pointed out, in addition, that

prominent residents Of the town Of
Warsaw (Thunderbolt) have led the
authorities to suspect a neurasthenic,
or mania, who is reported to have
been seen in the woods near the vii

trace the criminal have failed.
The other night James Bannon,
whose mother operates the celebrated
Bannon's Lodge, received q load OF
buckshot in his side, just as he was
entering his home after closing up his
store. The assassin made no effort
to get the box of money, which he let
drop when shot.
On Wednesday night Albert REM
Ter, who runs a store about a quar-
ter of a mile away, closed his store
and walked into the backyard toward
his home. Just as he stepped on the
front veranda he heard the metallic
click of a hammer. The gun had not
fired. He ran into the house quick
ly. Just as he started to close the
door the shotgun was fired. The load
took out a panel of the door and mar
rowly missed him.

Woman's Tango From
Tango Ends at Tango

PARKERSBURG, w. VA, Jan. 10
Over in Tango-which is the newest
township in West Virginia-every one
is doing it now. Hucksters snap their
fingers as they cry their wares, milk
men hitch their shoulders as they go
upstairs; everybody's doing that West
Virginia township rag.
Well. over here in Parkersburg tho
folks are staid; they know about the
fashion dance. but they're afraid-of
doing that. doing that. West Virginia
glide.
All of which accounts for the fact that
when Mrs. George Van Court of the
new town of Tango. came to Parkers-
burg day she was told to tango right
back home again. There was some lit
tie commotion at the station when the
policemen attempted to make her get
aboard the train, She had attended a
tango tea, she explained. and had had
little of all that was served. All she
wanted was to dance, and, as that is
the principal occupation in her home
town, the chief decided that she would
better be returned there.
