A CATASTROPHE.

Twas the deciding game in the
race for the pennant. Never in the
history of baseball had the run for
the flag been so close. Never had
enthusiasm reached such heights;
never, had the excitement been so
wild nor the rivalry so keen. Only
a few points separated the leaders
from the cellarites. The home team
was up for it's last time at bat and
Jerry O'Flannagan already had two
strikes and three balls against him
with two men down. He cast one look
at the cheering fans, who settled into
ar expectant tensity as Jerry spat on
his hands. His face was drawn with
a mighty determination. The oppos-
Ing pitcher wound up and suddenly
the ball leaped like a shot toward the
plate. The batter-but just then the
ball park policeman pulled Jimmy
awayfrom the knot hole in the fence.

PAPER FROM BARK OF TREES
was Largely Used In Siam Before The
Country Began to Import the
Cheap Foreign Grades.

Siam now buys considerable guam
titles Of foreign-made paper, but
there was a time when a fair guam
tity of paper was made in that coun-
try. "1mports of cheap foreign pa
per-" says Vice Consul Carl 9. Han
sen of Bangkok, in a report made
public by the department. Of COM
merce, shave almost caused this in
dustry to disappear. In the local
paper making the bark of the khoi
tree (Streblus aspera), which grows
wild in upper Siam, was made use
of. The making of paper from this
bark is said to be original with the
siamese, but this paper, however, is
a sort of cardboard, and was chiefly
used for making folded record books,
while the leaves of the TALBOT palm
were especially prepared and in
scribed with the sacred Buddhistio
writings in the Cambodian charac-
tiers in southern Siam and in the
Laos Pail characters in northern
Siam. Most of the universities in the
United States possess copies of these
books, the. best specimens
OF which are gilt-edged and inclosed
