NEW RULINo ABOUT
THREE CENT RATE

Postofficc officials call atten- !!
ton of The people to two rulings
just made by the department that,
have especial interest just at this J
time.
One ruling applies to the new
3 cent postage rate on domestic
letters. Ii had been announced
that when a letter is mailed after
November 2 with only cents af-
fixed and with no, return card on
the envelope, that the addressed
would be notified to send the
necessary cent stamp in seal
ed envelope, thereby causing him
an expense OF 4 cents to get the
letter.
The department. has now ruled
that such letters shall go forward 4
to. the addressee marked.:.1 cent
due which will be collected at its
destination. The addressee will
therefore be out but 4 cent as
against cents the other way.
| Under the new postage rate all
outside letters will require q
cents, but drop letters, or letters
in the city, or on rural routes or
star routes, will be cents: Here
tofore, all letters, whether city !
letters or outside letters, were 3
cents.
The other ruling refers to
packages to France and just at
this time, when relatives are gel
ting ready to send Christmas gifts
TO the boys at the front, it, will
be of interest to them. Owing to
the congestion Of the French
railway and mail service, the size
OF packages from this country
has been reduced to a maximum
of seven pounds instead of TWEEN
ty pounds, which has been the
rule heretofore.
The department has announced
the maximum weight for Christ .
mas packages to France as ten
pounds, but the new. ruling an
plies to all packages, regardless Z
OF whether OF not they are Christ
mas packages. The seven pound
limit will be rigidly adhered to,

BARNEY CURED EN-
Pirates Owner Proved FutllIty Of
BettInu on Ponies.

The betting fever at Hot Springs
became so high among the Brooklyn
players recently that Manager Robin,
son became worried because the play
ers had their minds on the horses
more than they did upon baseball.
Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the
Pittsburgh club, has written to Presi-
dent Ebbets, telling how he cured the
Pirates from betting on the races at
Hot Springs.
al called the players together one
day." says Dreyfuss, "and told them
would act as their bookmaker.
Whenever they wanted to bet they
brought their money to me, and /
gave them the same odds as the book
makers offered. II they lost I kept
their money. At the close of the race
meeting / showed them how foolish
they had been, for / had more than
81 900 OF their money, and only one
OF the players ever cashed bet.
That opened their eyes, and soon put
q stop to the practice"

ming Club sprint swimmer, has earned
the envy and admiration of al South
Atlantic swimmers and officials.
At the close of the century sprint
in the B. A. C. tank in Baltimore last
night Palmer was declared winner.
The judges and timers differed in
opinions as to whether Palmer or
Martial Van SchelIe, the Western
High youngster, and clubmate of
Palmer, had touched the end of the
pool first at the finish.
Record Was Broken.
Palmer was declared winner of the
event, although the three timers de-
clared they had caught Van Schelle
first and had timed him. The record
was broken. the time taken being
1:02:3
Upon climbing out of the pool
Palmer astounded the Judges by de-
claring he had failed to touch one
end of the pool at the fourth lap.
Judges Cogswell. Drummer, and Ruth
erford disqualified the former Yale
star and awarded the race and record
to Van Schelle. PaImer's sportsman
ship was roundly applauded.

NEW YORK, April 15.-Jim Shaw
and Cuckoo" Jameson cannot pitch
much ball Of the type they showed
in Philadelphia and remain in the
American League. Minneapolis. is
yearning for pitchers, and both look
like candidates for Joe Cantillon's
team.
Washington fans that Shaw would
beneht greatly by a course OF treat
ment such as Harry Harper received
at the hands Of the Millers' man
ager. Shaw certainly looked that
way yesterday. His ancient weak
ness, lack of control, was most ap.
parent in the very first frame.
In order to get the ball over the
platter he had to let down in his
speed, and SO Strunk and Thrasher
hammered the ball to the far corners.
Shaw was unable to do anything once
he was in a hole. His passing could
be foreseen after he walked the f1rst
two Mackmen-
Du Mont In Bad Place.
George Du Mont came into the
game with conditions breaking
badly for him. Had he started the
game 1t might have gone differently,
but he just didn't, that's all. The
next time out he should make bet
ter showing.
Cuckoo" Jameson may have been
a pitcher once, but that was not in
the American League. He may yet
prove himself a big Lacquer, but he
has some distance to go, judging
from the slaughtering the Mackmen
gave him yesterday. The wisdom of
Manager Griffith's decision to let
Thomas and Humphreys go to Minne-
apolis may be fairly questioned when
one considers what Jameson did not
do yesterday.
He Wore n Glove.
1t is true that Jameson wore q
glove and had a toe plate on his left
shoe, but that's the only proof he
offered of being a pitcher. Base hits
bounced on his delivery like shrapnel
"somewhere in France" That seventh
inning was q nightmare.

Potomac Boat Club oarsmen are in

Walter johnson Is the American
Leagues greatest whitewash expert
as well as its most successful OPEN
ing day pitcher.
In the last seven years he has won
six opening games for the Griffmen
and lost only one. In these seven
games he held opposing teams to
seven runs and thirty-one hits for
the anemic batting average Of .13S.
When johnson shut out the Ath-
letics last Wednesday he did his sixty
sixth kalsomining job and so leads the
American League. Eddie Plank comes
next with sixty-two, and Ed Walsh
third with fifty-eight runless games
to his credit.

teams as follows: New York Yam

'Tf I don't know enough to touch
the end of the pool, after swimming
as long as I have, I don't deserve to
win," is the way H. s. Palmer. the
Washington Swimming Club man,
put 1t last night after being declared
winner OF the s. A. A. A. u. title in
the century, and voluntarily proclaim
ing to the judges he had fouled. The
former Yale man is a true sportsman.
Aside from the Individual aspect OF
the case, we know of no more healthy
or helpful boost given athletics in
general in recent years. None of the
judges detected the foul, and had
Palmer been other than q real sport
he could have gotten away with the
slight error, which slowed him up
rather than aided him Van Schelle
was not one whit slower In offering
the winners medal to his teammate.
