none too good condition at the end OF

the best, If not the best, In the Ameri-
can league next year.
1t is a foregone conclusion that ev-
cry member of the present squad will
remain with the team and that next
season the Yanks will have at least
seven pitchers. Those who are rea-
sonably certain of their positions are
Bob" Shawkey, "Nick" Cullop, George
Mogridge, Allan Russell and Urban
Shocker. Shawkey has been by far
the most reliable of Donovan's pitch

except when injuries impaired their
effectiveness.

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject of building, for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience
as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he
is, without doubt, the highest authority

In some parts of the country 1t is
easy to obtain natural materials which
may be used to very good advantage in
house construction. The principal
parts of the house in which natural
materials are used are porches and
chimneys. Frame houses having stone
porches and chimneys are given SUBJ
stantial look which cannot be obtained
in any type of atwood construction.
The kind of stone which should be
used will depend partly upon what
kind is available and partly upon the
preference of the owner.

Moonshine Wish.

The concentration of troops in Ha-

upon gathering them at her table to

and said:
"You must hold this silver dollar in
your left hand, look at the new moon
over your right shoulder, make a wish,
and it will come true"
The thing was very quickly done,
and they rejoined the party. Later
the hostess asked if the wish had been
made, and, upon being informed that
it had, she remarked:

used in various colors for porch and
chimney construction.
Some sandstones have the disadvan-
tage that they are not as durable as
might be desired. In localities where
large granite powders are plentiful,
blocks of this material may be cut
from the stone. These blocks may be
used either in regular form and size
or in various irregular shapes and
sizes. Rough-faced marble is par
ticularly good material for porch and
chimney construction. Cobblestones,
used just as they are found, have
produced many attractive porches and
chimneys on frame houses. The cob
blestones should not be too small, and
they should be matched in the walls
so that the mortar joints will not be
too prominent. The color of the NOR
tar will depend upon the kind of stone
used and the effect desired. Mortar
which is widely different in color from
the stone will attract more attention
to the porch or chimney than mortar
which has been colored to match the
stone as nearly as possible. Special

SUBURBAN HANDICAP WINNER READY FOR BARRIER.

Thrilling races have been run in the
past; thrillers will be staged in the
years to come. But none probably will
be closer, furnish more excitement or
send a crowd into greater frenzy
than the Stromboli-Roamer battle on
Labor day at the Belmont IN. W

1t was a two-horse race around the
full one-and-a-half-mile course; with
Roamer an odds-on favorite at IL to
20, and StromboH heavily backed at z
to 5.
Roaner got the jump at the break,
shot into the lead by half length and
made it'another length within the first
100 feet. Ard so they ran for more
than mile while the crowd waited in
anticipation for a great stretch strug-
gle which only horses such as that pair
can produce.

Cullop, Mogridge and the other pitch
ers with us now will be on the club
next season.
"Our pitching staff had lot Of
wretched luck last season, and that
helped largely to beat us out of the
flag. Cullop, one Of the best south
paws in either league, pulled muscle
at time when he was needed most
and had to stay out of the game for
a few weeks. Mogridge, too, was laid
up when his services were needed. But
that is part of the game. Next sea-
son, provided we get our share of the
breaks, expect the 'Yanks' to be in

began to come along. With giant
strides he closed the daylight gap and
crept up to Roamer's saddle bags. II
looked as if he would pass him there
but Roamer, grand old horse that he
is, met the challenge and maintained
his half-length lead until within about
500 feet of the finish line.
Stromboli, with the crowd shrieking
in racing madness, came on again. Inch
by inch he crept along. Roamer led
by neck, now a head, now a nose
and then they were even. Nose and
nose they raced, with the thunder of
the throng ringing in their ears; ran
as horses never have run before. Fifty
feet from the finish line it looked as
if the race would be a dead heat. And
then Stronlholi, with herculean leaps,
gained an inch, two inches, four
inches-and the race was over Strom-
