QUEER QUIRKS CAUSED BY
 PROPOSED BASEBALL PEACE

CHICAGO, Jan. 9I. - Roger Bresnahan holds the most unique position in baseball today He's got job and he hasn't. He gets $3O,OOO for the next two years, regardless. Bresnahau's situation is one of the queer tangles caused by the planned cessation of the baseball war. When Charlie Weegham, former Federal league magnate, bought Charlie Taft's Cubs, he said Joe Tinker would manage the club. But Weeghau, didn't say what he was going to do with the former manager nor wheth- CT there was any stipulation regard ing Bresnahan, in the bill of sale Roger Bresnahan probably will be shipped to Toledo.
The Seward gateway., 1916-02-05

This is a great year for baseball comebacks. Joe Tinker, Cub castoff, who worried his way through a season of managing the Cincinnati Reds and then made the jump to the Chifeds, comes back with a vengeance to the job of piloting the Cub players who gufawed when Joe was let out by Murphy. But the real come back is Fielder Jones, one of the miracle men of baseball, who led the White Sox hitless wonders to their lone world pennant. Fielder will enter the big league again with the amalgamated St. Louis Browns and Sloufeds. Jones has accomplished two feats that put him in lone class: he led the mediocre bunch to worlds pennant, then last season took a bunch of Sloufeds and made them over into pennant contenders, which they cer- tainly had not been.

Why Society Women Wash

Few realize how many society women
now wash their own hair. not because
1t is a fad. but because they wish to
obtain the greatest possible hair beauty
and be sure they are not using anything
harmful. Thousands who have found
that in washing the hair It Is never
wise to use a makeshift but Is always
advisable to use a preparation made ior
shampooing only, say they get the best
results from a simple homemade canth-

IL Back for a Visit,

Frances Miller Hinkamp Is back in
Washington for little visit to her
people. the Ben deMier Millers. after a
gay and festive summer at jamestown,
where she chaperoned-imagin a young
thing like Frances playing chaperone-
pretty little Anita Kite. The United
states ship Florida. to which Lieutena mt
Htnkamp Is attached. was at James,
town most of the time. so Frances had
very happy season.
The Florida has been ordered to Nor
folk, October /. for an Overhaul pc
Rod" which should keep her in the
docks for about three months. and the
Hinkamps have taken an apartment in
Norfolk from October on. Frances ex-
poets to stay I'm Washington for the
rest Of September. but will probably
spend the week lends at Fort Monroe, as
the Florida Is now cruising about Hamp-
ton Roads. Anita Kite, who came down
with Frances from Boston to Fort Mon

few days visit. and will reach town
one day this week.
