imposing opposition.
After the two games today on the
North Side against St. Louis the Tots
will be away from the home lot until
the middle of next month, with the
exception of a couple of jumps back
for Sunday games.
Roger Bresnahan is out with de-
NAL that he will jump to the Sloufeds
and become manager of that faltering
crew. The Cub catcher says he has a
contract to fulfill with the West Side
club, and will live up to its terms.
Without Bresnahan the Cubs would
present sorry spectacle at the pres
sent time.
Buck Weaver has a dent in his
forehead and, according to physi-
clans, will have to wear a headgear
for some time if he expects to play
ball at once. Buck wants to play, so
he ordered the harness.
But Callahan has not decided
whether he will allow the captain
back in the battle. Berger is ready to
take WeaVer's place and Joe has done
manfully the last few days. He is not
a terrific hitter, but Weaver has also
slumped in his batting. AS a fielder
Berger is right up there with the best
of 'em.
Having seen one man ruined by
working when he was in no shane for
duty, Callahan is not taking any
chances on Weaver.
Larry chappeII will not play this
year. That is sad news, as it was
hoped the expensive outfelder would
be able to get in the game by the first
of August. He would strengthen the
outfeld materially.
Braves made three runs in last in

How TO Make Erumenty,

According to the most ancient formu-
Ia extant 1t was concocted in the fol
lowing manner: Take clean wheat
and bray 1t I'm mortar, that the hulls
be all gone of, and seethe II till It
burst, and take 1t up and let It cool;
and take clean fresh broth and sweet
milk of almonds or sweet milk Of kline
and temper 1t all; and take the yollIs
of eggs, Boil 1t little and set II down
and mess 1t forth with fat venison or
fresh mutton"
Venison was seldom served without
this accompaniment, but frumenty,
sweetened with sugar. was n favOrite
dish Of itself, the "clean broth" being
omitted when lord was to be- the par.
