silverware and ether valuables, he hur- ried away as soon as he got a bowl of hot oatmeal. In fact, he didn't even wait to take the loot he had already packed in little bag.
 Mary Desmond, maid, handed the oatmeal to the burglar. Ordinarily she serves food neatly. But she hadn't ex- pected to meet burglar in the dining room yesterday. It made her nervous. She put some of the cereal in the bur- glars hair, portion in his eyes and a lot down the back of his neck After that, she crammed the steaming bowl over his ears.
 Then she went back to the kitchen for the next course which happened to be scrambled eggs. But without notie- ing that driblets of oatmeal were burn ing holes in his waiscoat, the burglar left by the nearest door.
 Several presons pursued him, guided by his yells and a trail of steam in his wake. But nobody caught him.
 It's seldom the police catch a prisoner red-handed. It's more seldom they catch one red all over. But that's what happened when Patrolmen Hushion and Heffkes arrested Frank Callahan. 21, of 4S7 West Fffty-seyenth street, in front of the drug shop of William Raabe, 7s9 Eighth avenue. early yesterday morning.
 Most of the redness of Callahan was caused by a bottle of ketchup which MT. Raabe tossed at Callahan from his apartment over the store. small por- ton came from inside Callahan. where the splinter of broken glass made his veins leak.
 Dr. Tobin of Polyclinic hospital found Callahan suffering from fracture of the bottle and severe hemorrhage of ketchup. He wiped him off and took a couple of stitches in his scalp
 In the west side court, where Magis- trate Ten Eyck held Callahan in $50 bail for examination tomorrow on a charge of attempted burglary, MT. and Mrs. Raabe said their dog had walked them. They looked out the window and saw three men trying to loosen the bars of a window in the drug shop.
 Then MT. Raabe threw the ketchup bot tie. When his companions saw how freely Callahan bled (ketchup) from every pore, they left.

The Little Ball Player
inna Irving in Leslie's.

MInna IrNlng Tn Ises11e's. With legs apart and shoulders bent
 And sparkling eyes he stands. The magic sphere of his delight
 Clutched tightly in his hands. With all his strength he sends the ball. And views it's rapid flight. A frown upon his chubby face
 So softly pink and white. His aim was true, he straightens up And feels himself a man Who hears upon a crowded field
 The plaudits of the fan. Tricycle. now, and teddy-bear.
 And choo-choo cars and all. Are toys he'll never want again
 He's learned to play baseball.
