livened up by more.thrills. than usually

things there was triple play, an un-
assisted double and a healthy swat by
Bud Thomas that. fouled the pill over
the.fence into the sand pit

let White Salmon down.with four hits.
The Hood River team garnered ten
bits off of Overbaugh and Morton, OF
the visiting aggregation. Eight errors,
the majority of which were made by
Gesshng, failed to contribute any runs
to White Salmon.
Bill Hall, veteran catcher of local
baseball fame, broke into the game at
third last Sunday. Gessling shifted to
short, as Chet Pape was unable to play,
and after pegging several to first over
Bakers head, shifted to left field and
Hale came in to short. Hale robbed
White Salmon, of several hits while
playing in the field. One especially

The Inquisitive Japs.

The Japanese have q lively desire to know all about you. They are actively interested in your health, your busi- ness, your habits, your wealth, your personal affairs, how you like your eggs for breakfast, what your clothes cost, where you are going, when you are going and why you are going; what you intend to do after you get there, what your excuse for existing is, how often you get your hair cut, how many children you have or have not and why, what your watch cost, who is your tailor, how often you wash your teeth, how much you owe, whether you have any birthmarks and what was the occupation of your grandfa- ther. These and all other topics that are personal to you they are anxious to discover. Their curiosity is un- bounded; but. my sakes, how polite they are about it!-Samuel C.. Blythe in Saturday Evening Post.

Lawyers and Liars.

The eminent cross examiners of New York city have their favorite methods of knowing when a witness is telling the truth or lying. One lawyer says he can tell when q witness is lying by the movement of the lips. Another declares the hanGs form the best ba- rometer, and another declares the twitching of the muscles of the cheeks Is sure sign that the witness has been trapped i'll a lie. Still another disciple of Blackstone says that facial expression always helps him, as well as watching the feet, which are usual ly shifted uneasily when the lie is ap- parent. Then another declares that by keeping constant vigilance on the eyes of the witness he knows when he has his man going" If taken as com- plete formula it would mean that a periurer to escape detection would have to school his face to be impressive. keep his hands in his pockets. hook his feet in the rounds of the witness chair and shut his cyes.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.

Then There Was a Shakeup.

Some years ago the Italian minister of foreign affairs, Signor Prinetti, ask ed his majesty King Victor Emmanuel to sign d decree for the augmentation of the staff of the foreign office. The king promised to think the matter over and the next morning set out alone on foot to pay visit to the office. Arriv- ing at 9 o'clock, he found no one there A long search unearthed a solitary clerk who was smoking cigarettes.
 What are tho hours of this oftice?'' asked the king.
 Prom to 12," was the reply.
 And when may I,expect to see your colleagues?'
 ''They generally turn up about IT.
 ''Very well. When your chief comes tell him the king has been here"
 And then his majesty sent for Signor Prinetti and suggested that instead o asking for more clerks he should make it his business to see that those already on the staff attended to their duties.

ALI Money Coed In Canacia.


 There is no piaie ill the world where money is under less supervision than in Canada. The coins ill circulation there are not confined to the Dominion. British halfpennies and pennies cir culate as freely as the cents, and Unit ed States coins of all descriptions are accepted as equal ill value to the Ca nadian coins, though the United States refuses to handle the coins of the Dominion on it's own side of the bor- der. In the course of d busy day in Canada you are not surprised to meet coinage of many nations. Sometimes you get finds. A correspondent who is an amateur coin collector tells nc he got among his change a beautiful specimen of farthing of the reign of George III., and an hour or two after ward he became the possessor of an old Irish halfpenny over 100 years old. with the harp on one side. Probably these two coins had been carefully preserved, but poverty induced the pro prietors to part with them.-London Chronicle.
