The Cubs did not change hands
yesterday, but the stage is supposed
to be finally set today for the trans
fer of the stock from Charles P. Taft
to Charley Weeghman, after which
event the North Side will become
official custodian of a major league
baseball club.
We are naiveIy informed that all
the people financially interested viii
be present at the transfer proceed
ings, but this will not be true If
Charles Webb Murphy is among the
absent. Charles Webb hasn't been
heavily mentioned in the recent pro-
ceedings, but he viii be one of the
chief bene6ciaries.
They can't 70 any swapping with
out giving Murphy his bit, which Is
said to amount to about $400, 900.
And Charles Webb has himself so
protected that there was no chance
for him too lose. He was supposed
to be out of baseball, but he surely
is in healthy wad of coin.
Joe Tinker let two more players go.
Tex Westerzn and Bill Jackson we're
sold to Jack Holland of the ST. Jo-

ard made the arrangement, believing
his man is ready to grapple with the
headliners of the eastern circuit.
Anderson is big and strong, but
still has much to learn about the
fight game. A hard campaign against
the eastern second-raters should
benefit him greatly and prepare him
for better things, in case he has abil-
ity enough eventually to stack
among the top-notchers of his divi-
sion.
Mike Gibbons isn't going to Aus
tralia to fight Les Darcy. He has
turned down the $4,000 offer from
the Antipodes, which means there
will be no fight between the two
claimants to the middIes title. There
is no chance for Darcy to come here
and fight Gibbons during the war.
MiddIeweight material is lacking
in this country, and Mike will go a
long time before he find a worthy
opponent at 15S pounds. Ted Lewis
has been talked of as an opponent,
but Lewis is at his best as a welter-
weight. He does not scale enough to
warrant a campaign among the
middleweight men.

AWAKES.
Our Jenny.

Our Jenny was a small brown dom
key, which we used to torment with
kindness. She had long, brown, shay
gy hair, and we often combed it with
a currycomb; but Jenny was always
dusty.
We had a little buggy painted green,
just light enough for her to draw,
and three or four Of US would get in
to it at once.
Then poor Jenny had a hard time,
for she had to draw us up and down
the road until we were tired.
They call donkeys patient; but they
are obstinate, too. Jenny would take
it into her head to stand still, and
then nothing would make her go. We
might push, and whip, and call to
her. Nothing would do; she would
only shake her long ears now and
then, as if she would say, 'T hear you,
but I don't heed"
Sometimes we used to ride on her
back, and then, if an obstinate fit
came over her, she would do some
thing worse than to shake her ears.
She would go up to the first wall or
fence she saw, and coolly rub US
against it till we tumbled or on the
ground. Then she would give a lit
tie snort of triumph, turn round and
trot quietly off to the stable. WASH
that a pretty trick?

GAMES YOU CAN PLAY


The company is seated round ia

a sheet of paper, writes what he
thinks would be good title for
picture Folding down the top of the
paper so that the writing is hidden,
he passes it to the person on the
right. who reads the title, and fold
ing it down again, draws something
below the folded line to represent the
subject given.
This in turn he passes on to the
next person, who tries to make out
what the picture illustrates; and writ
ing down what he thinks it is, folds
down the picture, leaving his title Wis
ibIe. and passes it on again. Then be-
gins the fun of illustrating the Sec

Silk,

Many years ago an empress of China
discovered that very fine thread which
a certain kind of caterpillar spun in
making its cocoon might be woven In
to beautiful glossy cloth.
We may think OF the Chinese silk
worm as a domestic animal, for it is
reared just as cattle are. 1t is the
only caterpillar reared for its silk.
When the silkworm is Matched it is
a tiny object, feeding for forty days
continually on mulberry or Usage
orange leaves, and 1t becomes one of
the largest caterpillars. Then it spins
its cocoon which is heated to kill the
larva, or it would otherwise become q
moth.
In Japan, China and Italy, a girl is
paid two cents day to reel the yell
low silk into slzeins. She dips the CO.
coon into hot water to soften the gum
that holds the threads together.
1t takes about one thousand cocoons
to make a pound of raw silk.
The United States buys about one
third of the exports of raw silk;
France, Germany, Switzerland and
England are large buyers.
The United States, France, Ger
many and Switzerland make about
four fifths of the silk goods produced
by western nations.
The greatest silk mills are in New
York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
The greatest silk manufacturing
center is Paterson, New Jersey, which
is the largest ribbon mill in the world

Geography Game.

An amusing pastime is the geogra-
ply game. The players are asked to
choose a leader and also an umpire,
as this is considered the best way tC
avoid accusations of unfairness. At
ter the leader is chosen the players are
all given pencil and paper and the
can think of the most geographical
names beginning with a given letter in
a certain time.
In The first place the leader an
nounces the letter to be used. For in
stance, he says, "A," whereupon all
the players begin to write as fast as
possible geographical names beginning
with A. At the end of two minutes,
or whatever has been decided upon as
the time limit, the leader calls time"
and the players must all stop writing
and turn over their paper by making
fold which hides the list OF names
beginning with A. Then the leader
passes on to another initial, which he
announces in the same manner, calling
the time limit on this letter as he did
for the first one. = =. = =. 's4.ef; x

It is said, and 1 think it may be

without having learned the value of a
dollar.
dollar seems to be a large sum
of money for a boy and a small sum
for a man.
What is a dollar? 1t is one hun

tant thing in the great fortune of John
Jacob Aston. He died worth millions
and it took him three years to save
his first SIS. The first dollar saved
was the beginning of that great for

A dollar ahead means you are a
capitalist dollar behind. that you
are a debtor. The difference between
success and failure is a dollar.
A dollar in a savings bank will be-
come two dollars in a few years, and
SO there will become $40 in the same
length of time.
A dollar proves to be a hard thing
to keep because our wants are always
greater than our needs, and self-in
diligence keeps folks poor. Self denial
is what all bank accounts are founded
upon, and self-denial represents power
and self-indulgence weakness.

The Muscles.

Dear Uncle Jed: I am going to tell
you about the muscles. The muscles
are the fieshy part of the body. Be
sides giving roundness and beauty to
the human form, they possess the
power of shrinking and frightening like
a piece of India rubber.
Attached to them are strong white
cords called sinews or tendons, the
ends of which are fastened to the
bones. When the muscles contract
they pull these tendons and this gives
motion to the different parts of the
body.
For example. IL / wish to bring my
hand to my head, the muscles on my
arm between the shoulder and elbow
Immediately shrink and pull up the
forearm. When 1 wish my hand to
go back. another set of muscles on
the back part of the arm contract
and straighten out the arm again. The
muscles are usually thus found in
pairs one set to bend a limb, another
to straighten 1t.
The whole body contains about foui
hundred and fifty muscles or two
hundred and twenty pairs. the uses OF
which have been ascertained.
BY - these muscles all the. motions
y0f the Abody are performed. The
bones, could not move without them
and limb unfurnishel' with suitable
muscles would be motionless. The
bones and the muscles are thus nee
one another: :, and their union
