KING THRUSHlN
 VICTORY

Baltimore, May 7-King Thrush may not be among the first flight of three-year-old colts, but he certainly is bread winner of better than aver age ability. He won his fourth race of the season for Commander J. K. l.. Cross in Q common gal1op by six lengths when he beat a big field in the sixth race at Pimlico yesterday
 Many of the spectators doubted his ability to go a mile, the distance oi the race, but he surprised the pessi- mists by winning under a pull, his easiest victory of the year. Anni- versary, after a rough trip during the early stages of the race, just got up to land second money by a head.

PAYS GREAT SUM
 FOR RACE HORSE

Edward F. Simms, oil magnate of New York and Kentucky, has paid $25O,0OO for Prince Palatine, a thor oughbred English stallion. So far as is known, this is the greatest price ever paid for a race horse. It is $100 900 more than August Belmont paid for the mighty Rock Sand some years ago. It is $6O0o0 more than Flying Fox brought, and $70, GOO more , than Tracery's selling price.
 Prince Palatine in the most sue cessful stallion of the present era. His get are favories for the classic English Derby abroad and for the Kentucky Derby in this country.
 The surpEising part of this sale is that Prince Palatine is now 12 years of age. Of course, under ordinary circumstances he should have quite a few years of usefulness in the stud be fore him, but neverth heaess it seems like a fa5bulols price to pay for a thoroughbred of that age.

RUTH APPEARS
 LIKE A CHAMPION

In the past the Yankees have al- ways been a team sadly lacking in color. When Col. Jacob Ruppert and Col. T. l.. Huston bought the club they endeavored to change all this.
 The bought Frank Baker and Lee Magee and other athletes of repTta- ion. Baker played good ball for the Yankees, but he was never the type of player to arouse undue enthusiasm in the breasts of the fans. Magee had the necessary personality but failed to deliver as player.
 This year, with the acquisition of Babe Ruth, the Yankees assumed an entirely different aspect. Ruth, aside from his hitting, is a great snowman. His every move upon the ball field is calculated to arouse the interest of the multitude He looks the part ot 8 champion athlete at all times.

Because Gene Hunney vii be un- able to box in this city one week from today under the auspices of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the management has secured Clay Turn CT as a substitute to meet Larry Williams.

CORSET FIRST WORN By MEN
Garment Now Almost Exclusively
Feminine Shown to Have Been
Made for Norman King.

The corset as such has not always
gone by that name. First mention Of
the word Is found In the household
register OF Eleanor. countess Of Leices-
ter. May "a. 1865, and the person for
whom the garment was made was
Richard. king Of the Normans. An.
other pair IS mentioned at the same
time as intended for Richards son,
Edward. Which would seem to prove
that corsets were originally used for
men as well as for women.
Some authorities claim that the
word corset Is from the French word
corps. the body. and serrer Ito tighten.
inciose or incase). This may have
been n corruption or diminutive form
Of the single word corps" which was
formerly written "cors," or the name
may have been taken from a rich ma
terial known as corse, which was at
one time extensively used for its max
ing. About the year 1900 the corset
Is referred TO as "stays" In England.
The word bodice was not infrequently
spelled bodies by old authors and was
used to designate the garment now
known as the corset.

Beavers Remarkable Work.

A single colony of beaver are cap
able of constructing a dam II fee,
high and quarter OF a mile long
Such a dam was recently discovered
by state game warden. In a secluded
spot along Taylor's creek, bayfield,
county. Wis. The beaver house at
the center Of the dam. 16 feet high
and 40 feet broad at the base, the
sleeping apartment inside the house,
was exceptionally spacious for a
beaver home, being large enough for
q tall man TO lie down at full length.
The floor was found to be covered with
dry substance and was as clean as
whistle. Large quantities of food
were found stored for cold weather
use. Nine beavers, the parents and
their children. were found living CON-
fortably in the house, the result Of
their engineering feat.

Or. Wilfred T. GrenfeiI Tells Of En-.
perienee With Patient Possessing
Powerful Imagination.

In medicine things sometimes hap
pen that professional men have diff.
Guilty In explaining. according to DR.
Wilfred L. Grenfell, who In his auto
biography tells the following story
A big fisherman came aboard my
steamer one day and said that he had
toothache. His Jaw WAS swollen, his
mouth was hard to open. and the Of
Tending molar was visible within; but
when I produced the forceps he pro-
tested loudly that he would not have
II touched for worlds
"Why. then. did yon come to meT'
I asked. "You are wasting my time"
II wanted you to charm her, doc
tor" he answered
"But. my dear friend. do not know
how to charm. and don't think 1t
would DO the slightest good. Doctors
are not allowed to do such things"
He was evidently much put out. and
had turned to so when said. "If you
really think 1t would do any good.
come along. You'll have to pay Is
cents exactly as II you had it pulled
out"
"GladIy. doctor. Please 60 ahead"
He sat on the rail while I put one
finger into his mouth. touched the
molar and repeated the most mystic
nonsense could think Of "Abra-
cadabra Tiddlywinkum UmslOpoga,"
and then jerked the finger out lest the
patient close his ponderous Jaws. The
fisherman took turn round the deck,
pulled out the quarter and solemnly
handed 1t to me, saying. "All the pain
is gone Many thanks. doctor"
I found myself standing alone In
twiddllng a miserable
shilling and wondering how / came
to make such fool of myself
