of the Alumni players stated that

INDOOR SPORTS
BY j. w. IIeisman.

NNE day about week ago the
Tech team crossed bats with
the Alumni. and during the
course OF the game an incident came
up which occa stoned a rather inter.
esting discussion. The case was
this.
Tech had a runner on third aud
one on second, with one man out.
The batter hit long fly 10 center
making two ont. After the catch
the runner on third ran home, which
he reached In safety The Alumni

chance to get the man going home

the runner on second started for
third, whcreupOn the Centerfieldor
shot Il to second aud got It there
before the runner could get back
thus putting him out and retiring
the side
Then, somewhat to my surprise,
the question was raised whether the
run that came IN from third after
the catching of the fly ball, and be-
fore the other runner was put out
at second counted
Personally | had no doubt that It
did count, and in support AZ my opin.

to build than the plain, ordinary look

less, since the well designed house is
built from complete architects draw

That Flute by Wireless.

1t Is an unprecedented phenomenon
in wireless telephone and telegraphy
which is told by Capt. Schmidt of the
German steamship Solfels, who re-
ports while bound from Calcutta and
Ceylon to Philadelphia he heard the
clear notes of flute at st. Michaels,
395 miles distant from the Solfels.
On the night of September 20 Wire

400 miles away, all hands were inter
ested to know where the music came
from. The music continued, and a
wireless message was sent to st.
Michaels, the capital of the Azores. A
reply stated that II was national
holiday, and the man at the flute was
playing God Save the King"
AS the wireless apparatus on the
Solfels was of the Tellenfunken type,
which is practically a telephone and

attractive. Narrow siding is used

yet it is one which affords a maximum
of roominess downstairs, at the same
time separating the dining room
space to a certain extent from the
living room. An open stairway going
up along the rear wall Of the living
room also adds to the apparent space.
This arrangement affords wonderful
possibilities for attractive interior
decorative effects. Such a space Is
also very easily furnished for comfort.
Another desirable feature of this
plan Is the bedroom and bath on the
first floor. This is a feature very
much desired, but in the ordinary

a difficult matter to arrange.

Pretty soon she went home. | could

always did think good deal of Lem

in the afternoon Mehitable came in
again. She didn't have her SEWN as

"He says he's made a resolution for

Well, I must say never saw such a
change as come over Mehitable and
Lemuel after that. He wouldn't tell
what his resolution was, and she
couldn't make him, though she almost
went down on her knees. It began to
seem as II she was fairly changin'
characters with Lemuel, though she
had a spell of bein' herself more'n

tell what that resolution was. Then
she give that up, and she never asked

Well, Lemuel he never gave in, and
he never told till the next New Years
day, when he'd said he would. He'd
said all along that he'd tell her then.
I'd got most as curious as Mehitable
myself by that time, and New Years

He said he wouldn't till he was

the last mouthful, he looked up and he
