SPORTING NOTES.

The Eastern Baseball League Mon
day night voted to raise the player linn
it from Is men to II with a commenSu-
rate increase in the salary limit. This
action was taken on the grounds that
the teams would be unable to get along
with only four pitchers during the hot
weather when they are playing off
double hea ders. Instructions were also
drawn up for umpires to allow only
three pitched balls by a pitcher warm
ing up between innings except in
the case of a new pitcher going
into the box when five pitched balls
will be allowed Following the regular
league meeting the board of directors
heard the protect of the Lowell club
against the ruling of Vice President
O'Neill in forfeiting the Lowell Hart
ford game on May to Hartford. The
directors sustained the vice president
after hearing Manager Lord and Play
er Hilhullen of Lowell and Umpire
Stafford.

AS TO TROUT

or Bill Trout is a mighty know
in critter, If you don't want to
take my word for it go and hook him,
and then watch the speed, pep, and
verve with which he will distribute
your flies among the branches of that
old dead hemlock that lies under yon-
der bank.
There were AZ other directions which
he could have taken, all easier than
this. but did he take them? He did
not, Roger, he just lit out for that
hemlock before you could sufficiently
collect your wits to check him by
thumbing your whizzing reel handle,
and by the time you were ready for
him, your Silver Doctor was froZe to
one limb of the old tree, the Grey Mil
Ter adorned another. the Red Ibis stuck
to third, and or Bill Trout casually
wrenched the Grizzly King from his
upper lip and cheerily thumbed his
nose with his starboard fin before re-
firing to the cool depths under the
hemlock, which has acted as his life
preserver many time. And if YOU
want revenge, put away your $50 split
bamboo, (unless YOU want it split some
more), borrow steel rod, get a stout
line and a bass hook, attach a COB of
plain, low browed "Wums" thereto.
and sneak over to the old hemiock a
couple of mornings after you first hook
ed him.
Insert the mass of wrigglers on the
far side Of the fallen hemlock, Just
where the shadow meets the sunlit
part Of the pool, on the edge Of that
big cow-lily pad, and bling, he nails it.
Your cue then is to stiff-heel him about
40 yards inland, over the tree tops in
the good old-fashioned way, as sener-
atoms of small key Waltons have done
before you. Pretty crude stunt" Pos
sibly, but it is the only way or Bill
can ever belong to you, and after you
have lost six or eight dollars worth of
tackle trying to take him according to
Hoyle, just try my prescription.

FRIGHTENED INTO FULL FOR
GETFULNESS.

Near the close of the Civil War a
band of troops halted before cabin
in remote mountainous district and
called to II woman standing in the
doorway and who evidently recog-
nized them as enemies.
"Who lives here?"
81 do came the answer in frighten-
ed tones.
Eyes, but what is the name of the
man of the house?"
The woman turned pale and stared
blankly at the leader of the troops
for some seconds, but made no reply.
When the patience of the leader had
become exhausted and he was prepar-
ing to deliver severe reprimand her
face frightened suddenly and she
called loudly to some one within the
cabin, "Marair, oh. Marian, what is
the name of the man l married last
week 2"

EASILY EXPLAINED.

During a military review at Alder
shot last summer one of the foreign
attaches had made himself obnoxious
to several staff officers by asking RI
diculous and often impertinent ques-
tions. Turning to an old infantry Of
ficer, he said:
GLOW is it, Colonel, that your bu-
gle call Advance is so short while
the Retreat is just the reverse 2"
Because, sir" replied the veteran,
when British soldier goes into ac-
ton it only needs single note from
a bugle to make him advance any
where, but it takes a whole brass
band to make him retire"
