CAT CAUSED MUCH TROUBLE
Family Pet Has Been Formally Cau-
toned that "The Cave" is Not
Public Property.

Out in Woodruff place a number of
small boys have banded together and
done what most boys have done il
they were real-for-sure boys-built a
cave, says the Indianapolis News. APP
preaching this cave is long under
ground tunnel about two feet square.
What there is in this tunnel in the
way of side chambers and the like, tho
fathers and mothers never will know,
but at the inside end of the tunnel is
the den, about five feet square, built
in side hill and as dark as the most
cavernous depths of Wyandotte
cave.
One of the youngsters belonging to
the band of cave dwellers hurried
home from school the other afternoon,
the tunnel. Crawling in fiat on the
ground, he made his way toward the
den. Arriving there, he heard scram-
bling noise just ahead and two fiery
spots loomed up in the darkness. His
| teeth chartered with fright He
couldn't back away, he was too fright.
ened to go forward, and there was
no chance of escape at either side
The fiery spots became active and the
boy became panicky.
Just what happened in there the
outside world will never know. but
when the oat-it was the family cat
came out of the tunnel it was going
some. No cat ever moved faster, and
it didn't stop until it had reached a
barn three lots away.
And the boy-when he emerged his
face was as white as the arctic snow
and he was moving rapidly for tbs
open. The next afternoon the boy
painted sign on which were tht
words: THE Cave in white paint, OF
blazing yellow back ground. Gazing
proudly at the sign he explained;
Now, if that fool cat can read, he'll
keep out of there

Storm Often Mlsnamed.

II is a curious fact that what is gen.
.rally known in some OF the eastern
ltates as a northeastern storm. is in
reality, says Popular Mechanics, OF
lutte contrary origin. Because
strong wind which frequently
carries heavy rain is apparently
iriyen from northeasterly direc-
ion, it is popularly assumed in
specific area, that the storm
originates somewhere in a north
eastern zone, while in truth its real
source is in the west or southwest
Tne explanation is that such disturb
lnce is merely an airdraft OF paro
metric depression in the opposite di
-ecticn. The storm is known as q
bareback, and is one of the eondi
ions which cause a weather forecast
ar difficulty.

The Lost Art in Baseball.

Tn the bygone days of baseball the speediest outfelders were stationed in right field so that they could come in fast on a bounder hit into right field, scoop it up and throw the bat ter out at first base.
 In these days such a trick is a rarity; but 20 and 30 years ago 1t was common. A right fielder who couldn't arrange an assist on every three bounders hit out his way was considered too slow to keep. Nova days if a right fielder throws out one man season at first base on a drive into his territory he gets his name and picture in the papers.
 Billy Sunday, now an evangelist often threw out men at first base when he played right field. Mike Herman, Mike Kelly, Jake Evans Tom McCarty, Hughie Nicol and other right fielders of the sos turned the trick frequently. But with theil passing the feat became lost art.

SNYDER SUPERIOR

Sport Writer Thinks St Louis Catcher Has Never

(By Frank G. Menke.)

 That was the question we put to Miller Huggins in February. 1914, when the Cardinal manager was lurk- ing in the lobby of the Waldorf
 Yep" was the answer. Hes a catcher-and in less than two years he'll rank as the greatest catcher in the land or I'll buy you a nice new hat"
 We'll never get that hat because Huggins' prediction concerning his recruit catcher-Frank Snyder-has come true.
 Modern baseball has never known q backstop who is the peer Of Snyder, who was secured bf EusSins from the Springfield QllD club in the Three Eye leagUe.
 Snyder ranks among the best hit ters in the National league. He's right at the top now and barring ac- cidents he ought to be the swattins leader of the old league when the 1915 battle is over He started rath- CT slowly in his clouting but during the past six weeks he has been bang ing the ball to all portions of the lot Snyder can steady wobbly pitcher better than any backstop in the game He can hold any kind of ball that is heaved at him and he has a mighty and unerring aim. And above al else he is brainy youngster anc one who uses his head at all times
