Umpire McRee has probably had
the easiest sailing Of any umpire
who has worked in the game this

decisions are seldom questioned, bat
there is always a difference of opin-

an umpire as he is a blacksmith, and
he's some blacksmith, they say.

Iarne Market for Rabbit Skins.

There is a market for rabbit skins.
Before the recent war an enormous
trade was carried on abroad. 1t Is said
thnt Great Britain and Ireland alone
produced about thirty million skins an
nually. Most rabbit skins are sold in
bales, by weight, the fur from them
being used for felting purposes, and
the skins for making glue. The war
interrupted the importations from Eu-
'ope and Australia to such an extent
That the price has greatly increased.
The better skins are sold by the dozen.
When dressed they become the "cony'
of the fur trade, often sold under fan
clful names. American breeders are
raising all kinds of rabbits that pro-
duce the best "cony" of the fur shops.

Vincent Mastaglio had been dazzling
his playmates with great rolls of $40
bank notes and pockets full of jewelry
for several days when the police
learned of his suddenly acquired
riches and took him into juvenile
court, where he told of discovering his
treasure trove.
He was playing In New York East
side street the other day when he fell
through n coal hole. There wasn't
much in the cellar to excite his inter-
est, so he tried the upper floors of the
house, which he found to be deserted.
There, he told the police, he found
rooms with their floors strewn with
money; 50 and $40 bills had been
wadded and thrown in every corner,
and jewelry Uttered the dressing
tables.
Investigation by the police verified
the boys statement. They learned
that the house had been occupied by
Mrs. James Sandman, a recluse ninety
years old, who had died n few days
before. The boy was the first person
to enter the house after the woman
had been removed to hospital, and
the money, thought to be rents from
her tenants, had lain where she had
thrown 1t on the floor as she. re-
ceived It.
