strength Rudolph, James and Tyler
are possessed of wonderful stamina.
They could take care of schedule OF
ten games as easily as one Of three.
Mack has only two really reliable
pitchers, Bender and Plank. and
these are veterans of many years.
They seem as capable Hcw as ever,
but are they? The sreat Matty
buclSled all at once under the strain
of the last few weeks. Certainly
Gender and Plank cannot expect to
recuperate from hard games as
quickly as they did year ago. EX-
perts believe that Mack will try to
make sure Of the first Two games with
his veterans so as to be able to gam
BILE with younger men afterward
These young pitchers OF his have
been more or less erratic all season.
! Almost as great an asset as the
/ three pitching marvels is the COM
! binaticn Of Eyers and Stallings.
| Capt. John from the neld of play is
/ perfectly qualified to command the
/ team on defence. Tho Trojan is
without doubt one of the very
brainicst players that ever lived. No
opening escapes him. He is pos
sessed of great personality and mag
netism and can keep team keyed up
to its proper lighting pitch far better
than any other man in the game.
Stallings can be counted upon to get
the last ounce of energy out of the
attack. He is the equal o. Mack at
vile and strategy. There is little
doubt that Boston will p.as its very
best game against the worlds cham
pions.
Because Of Bostons apparent su-
periortiy i'm pitching, the further the
series goes the better should be the
chances of the Braves for ultimate
victory. Siallings's team is handi-
! capped somewhat IN having to play
its first two games away from home.
But if it can win only one of these,
then the advantage for the time will
lie altogether on Ike side az the chal-

in a short series of this nature. There

last three worlds series the Ath-

Elenhants Hate cameIs.

Elephants in Africa have the bitter est enmity to cameIs, When the camel scents the elephant 1t stops still, trem- b1es in all it's limbs and utters an in= terrupted cry of terror and alright No persuasion, no blows, can induce it to rise. It moves it's head backward and forward, and it's whole frame is shaken with mortal anguish. The ele- phant on the contrary, as soon as he perceives the camel elevates his trunk. stamps with his feet. and, with his trunk thrown backward. snorting with q noise like the sound of a trumpet. he rushes toward the camel, which with it's neck outstretched and utterly de- fenseless awaits with the most patient resignation the approach of its enemy. The elephant, with its enormous, shape less limbs, tramples on the unfortunate animal in such a manner that in few minutes it is scattered around in small fragments

Numbering tiouass.


 The now almost universal custom of numbering private houses so that they can be easily identified is only little more than 400 years old It was in the year 151S that this idea struck the fancy of g Pariaian architect. but 1t was not until nearly three centuries later that the system became at all general
 In Berlin an eccentric method Of numbering the houses was first adopt ed. They were numbered without any reference whatever to the name of the street. A tenants address would be described merely as 1000 Berlin.'s In St. Petersburg an excellent way of dis playing the numbers is employed lit tie lanterns bear the numbers on the glass, so that they can be seen after dark. Tn the later Stuart times 7 says Macaulay .sthe houses of London were not numbered. and there would. indeed. have been little advantage In number ing them, for Of the coachmen, char men, porters and errand boys of the city very small proportion could read. It was necessary to use marks which the most ignorant could under stand The shops were. therefore, dis tinguished by painted or scuIpfured signs, which gave "a very gay and grotesque aspect to the streets.

A very curious and distinguishing characteristic of the Gaelic alphabet Is that nearly every letter thereof is represented by a tree. While the all phabet of ancient Gaelic comprised but seventeen letters, that of modern Gaelic has eighteen. But with the new forms, as with the old, the letter is represented by tree. The excep- tions are "g,s' 'tt" and stu.' which stand for -sivy,''. ..furze'' and heather"
 The alphabet now stands: Aim. bette, coll, dur, eagh. fearn, gath, ht1a th, iogh, luis, muin, nuin, oiv. peith. ruis. sui1, teine.

In discussing the enthusiasm with which the members of his team played for him this season Manager StaIIingA Of the Boston Braves says:
 ''When Whitted Joined my team in midsummer he had the reputation of being a, Ioafer, in the baseball sense He didn't loaf on my team. As soon as he joined the organization he found all hands were out there for morning practice promptly on the dot every day.
 He found every man working his head off for the success of the club, although we were at that time in last place. It didn't take him a minute to size up the situation. He rushed right in with the others, and want to say that we had no more earnest worker from that time on than Whitted.
 sfIn the chamB ionship season of 164 games Esvers did not take part in 24 or 25 of them. It was necessary to put in a substitute for this valuable player The substitute I put in mace good in every way, and we won 21 or g of the games in wctch Bvers did not take part
 Zig Schmidt was forced to lay of for a period on account of a strained ankle. Otto Hess and Hank Gowdv played the, bag during his absence, and we won all the games that the big fellow missed. ATaranvilIe was out several games The man who took his place played brilliantly, and we won every game during the sRabbit.s, absence"
 After Whitted Joined the team as utility player. he was used as sub stitute for Ewers and Maranville. He played second base in place of ESvers in IS games before the pennant was cinched. Of these games the Braves won H. lost three and tied one He substituted for Maranvi1Ie in two the Braves

How ssilson chesse ls Made. ..


 stilton cheeses diner from ordinary cheeses in the method of manufacture. Each Stilton is made in circular mold, or vat, two feet deep and about nine inches in diameter, perforated at the sides and bottom. When the milk has been turned into curd by means of rennet it is transferred into the vat, which Is lined with a coarse woven cloth, with ladIe. When thin layer of curd covers the bottom Of the mold a little dry salt is sprinkled over 1t. This is supposed to create the blue mold often found in Stiltons Then more curd issadded In layers until the vat is full The whey gradually drains through the cloth and out of the holes into the pan in which the vat stands After the curd has stood for twenty four hours tin disk is laid on the top and weight applied to hasten the expulsion of the whey. When quite firm the cheese Is removed from the vat and placed on shelf to dry. After some days the cloth is taken off and the cheese is left to ripen in a special room. the temperature of which never varies.-London Answers

 OF RING BATTLEs


 1S86-Jehn L. Sullivan knocked out Paddy Ryan in 3rd round at San Fran cisco. This was the third and last meeting between the two great Irish fighters. Ryan was champion of America when he first met the sBos- ton Strong Boy' at Mississippi City in 1882 Paddy was knocked out in the 9th round and. John L. became the king of American pugilism. Ryan tried to regain his lost 1aurels at New York in 1885, but the police stopped the bout before it had fairly started. They were then matched by San Francisco club, but poor old Paddy was only a bite for the svoracious John L. Ryan fought only one more battle, when he was whipped by Joe McAuliffe in New York. Paddy hail. ed originally from Tipperarys but set tied in Troy, N. r., where he died, He attained the championship in 1880 by
