was holiday, and the athletes went
out to see the Cubs and Reds. They
paid their way in at the gate, though
they were offered the freedom of the
park by Cub officials.
Tinker is planning to use Doc Wat
son, former Cub southpaw, this after
noon. He has done toppy work in pre-
Vious engagements, and Joe believes
he has grabbed a find from under the
noses of the organized fellows.
Joe is not planning any changes in
his lineup at present. The contem-
plated replacing of Farrell by Fritz
will not go through. Johnny batted
in the first home game, and indicated
that his weak ankles are gaining
strength.
Chance had the Mackmen licked
badly for five innings. Then the Nc
Inniss Collins Baker combination
went to work and batted out VIC
tory, Baker producing the winning
blow in the 18th. He and Collins each
got three hits. Bressler, new Mack
man, finished the game in the box
and went strong. Heating was ham,
mered by the Athletics.
EngeI passed three Red Sox in the
third inning and Duffy Lewis obliged
with a triple. Another defeat for
Washington Collins had an easy time
holding the Nationals. Mcbride got
a triple and single.
Bill James, Brown recruit, pitched
well against the Tigers, and his mates
pulled out the game by batting
Dubuc. Burns of Detroit and Will
iams of is. Louis each raped three
hits.
Fromme, Vanguard and WiItse
were thumped by the Philly batters,
while Marshall held the Giants safe.
Byrne and Magee swatted
fercely.
ST. Louis pounded Bob Harmon, a
former pal, and swamped the Pirates.

work even surprised Safer, who al
most let the ball get away in aston
ishment that a Cub oUtfielder should
show brainWOrk.
Plays of that Kind mark the differ
ence between the dub and the good
man.
Bert Humphries was not allowed to
finish the game, though he pitched
excellent ball for eight innings. In
every frame but one the Reds got to
him for safetieS, but the side-armer
never let them come close to scoring
except when Johnson made his mis-
cue. Cheney relieved HUMPHREYS aft
er the bases had been filled with an
intentional pass, and got Pinch Hitter
Miller for the third out Larry went
through the ninth easily with the help
of Johnston's snappy work.
Humphries looked as good yester-
day as last year. He seems to have
changed his plan of campaign slight
~, and does not work himself out
when there is no danger. He con-
serves his energy for the critical mo-
ments, which is good form.
Again the Cubs were weakIings at
bat, getting only three hits off of
Ames. Their first run was the result
of two passes and a wild pitch. The
second was manufactured in approx
ed style on a double, sacrifice and
sacrifice fly. Leach and Archer each
poked doubles and Zim got a single.
Archer's blow was the only one that
counted in the scoring.
Joe Benz is slated to pitch for the
Sox when hostilities are reopened in
Cleveland this afternoon. He has
shown two good games this spring
and is in shape Russell is not badly |
hurt and will be ready for his regular |
turn in the box tomorrow.
Gals crew rested quietly yester-
day, being glad of an off day after |
the strenuous work they have gone |

APARTMENT
Is Offered by the King of Great
Britain to the Mother of
Captain Scott.
s1y AaaoelArEo rnass9

LONDON. Mar. 2O.-Mrs. Scott,
mother of the Captain Scott who lost
his LIFE in returning from the South
Pole, has been offered one of the
apartments in Hampton Court Palace
These are at the disposal of the
king, who usually grants them to
widows of men who have disting-
ufshed themselves in nat service.
Although the apartments are finely
Appointed, they are not always a de-
light TO those who the king offers
them rent free. 1t is customary for
the tenants to pay the rates and
taxes, which amount to something
life $500 a year. For this price
fairly good cottage can be obtained
in the vicinity. Hampton Court has
its disadvantages, among them gos-
sip and m understanding as the
life is somewhat like that of COM
muntty. Many OF the apartments are
also very high up and have no ele-
vators. This inconvenience is not
altogether met by a basket on the
end of string let down to the post
man or tradesman. On the other
hand the rooms are very beautiful
and the tenants have the use of the
gardens in the early morning before
the crowds of visitors arrive.

PLOMAGE BILL
Before the British Parliament is
Endorsed by Many Thou
sands of Persons.

LONDON, Mar. 2O-A petition in
favor of the Plumage bill to be pre-
scented to the House of Commons has
been signed by 21,5s5 persons who
visited the Bird Court of the Exhibi-
ton OF Australian Manufacturers last
fall. So strong is Australian opinion
in favor of the bill that it is stated in
official circles that had the petition
been circulated publicly it would un-
doubtedly have been signed by ninety
five per cent of the population.
This intense feeling is due, apart
from humanitarian reasons, to the con-
viction that systematic slaughter of
birds for the plumage market is hay
ing a most detrimental effect upon
agriculture. Public opinion Is also
incensed by the fact that prohibited
skins and feathers are struggled out of
the county in spite of the vigilance of
the authorities, and it is recognized
that only the closure of the home mar
kets can effectively put an end TO the
traffic.

It Is. certainly remarkable how quickly
the action of s s. $, the famous blood
purifier, shows itself in the skin;
There is one ingredient in =. s. S. which
peculiarly stimulates cellular or glandular
activity to select from the blood, from
the fine network of blood vessels in the
skin. those elements which 1t requires for
regeneration.
Thus pimples, acne, eczema, lupus, @or
any other blood condition that attacks the
skin or seeks an outlet through the skin is
met with the anitdotal effect of S. s. s.
This is why skin troubles vanish 90
readily and why they do not return. Tn

WOMAN FORCED
TO GIVE MONEY
At POINT OF GUN
FRANCIS WASHINGTON, coLoRED
COOK, WHO HAD JUST BEEN
PAID OFF, HAD A RATHER Ex-
CITING ENCOUNTER.

Held up ct the point Of a, pistol and
forced to hand over So, the amount Of
her weeks earnings, which had iusL
been paid her, was the experience Of
Francis Washington, colored, a cook
in the home Of Mrs. L. NJ. Davis. for
the past four years Yrs. Davis said
that she thought her cook was telling
a. very straight story in relating what
had happened, and as the same tale
was told at the police station, there is
likely a long time on the county or
state roads for one negro who is being
sought for the alleged robbery.
Francis Washington was the narae
Of the negro woman who appeared
yesterday at the police station and
stated that, while walking along Tar
ragona street, near the intersection Of
Jackson street, she was accosted by a
negro man whom she said she knew.
The latter told the woman that he was
in need Of a pair Of shoes, and is
thought to have made such remark
as a sort Of a lead to finding out
whether or not she carried any money.
Suddenly the negro man, she said,
whipped out a pistol. ana holding the
same threateningly toward her head,
demanded all the money she had. AIRS.
Davis had just paid her the sum of
SO and this the negro evidently knew,
for he was tnSiStent, taking no ex-
cuses. When he was handed over
the money he suddenly vanished in
the darkness. This occurred at a late
hour Saturday night and a report of
the same was made to the police sta
ton yesterday. Although the name
of the suspect was furnished. and &.
good description left at the station
for the guidance of those officers who
did not know the negro named, no
arrests were made up to a, late hour
yesterday. This is the first case, the
police stated, of a woman being at
tackled by a highwaynan.
