STALEYS COMING
Decatur Team, Twice Winner From
Rail Lights To Be Here.

Joe McGinnity's Staley team OF
Decatur, Illinois, will be the big at
traction in Alma on Saturday and
Sunday, August and g., and while
Republics managed to grab the only
game played with this team on the
recent trip to Illinois, the Truckmak-
ers are certain to find some tough
Shedding in these two trays as the
Staley nine is strong one.
The Staley team is one of the
members of the Interstate Industrial
league of which the Republic Trucks
are member, and this will naturally
spur the two teams TO greater eff
forts in the forthcoming games.
The Staleys have taken three
games from the Toledo Rail Lights,
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1920-08-05

and lost one; won two and lost two
with the Pyotts Of Chicago, who split
with the Republics. Rush, one of
their three star pitchers, let down
the Fairbanks-Morses of Beloit, with
l hit; and they have twice defeated
the Gunthers of Chicago. You will
remember the Beloit Club took -four
out of five from the Republics last
season and when a Staley hurler
holds this aggregation TO one safe
blow it should suggest real battle.
Some Of their men are Halas, for
merly with the New York Ameri-
cans; Dermit, late Of the st. Louis
Americans; Lotshaw, until lately
with indianapolis of the American
Association; Wasem, recently in the
Central Association; Cameron, crack
first baseman of the Mint" League;
Sieb, premier hurler, is being chased
hard by scouts from the big leagues,
especially St. Louis This star ag
gregation is led by Joe McGinnity
whom we all remember as the Iron
Man of the New York Giants.-the
pitcher whose stunt 1t was TO pitch
and win double-headers in the days
when the Giants won world
championships. Iron Man" MacGin-
nifty and Christy Mathewson were
the stellar pitchers in the Big Show
at that time. Just to show that his
old whip is still there" Iron Man
Joe stepped into the box recently
and easily defeated the fast Toledo
Rail Lights who gave us such tough
battles last week.
Because of the Chautauqua Sat
urday's game will be played at 4:30
The Sunday game will be started at
300 D. m.

GAUDY COSTUME HIS F0IBLE
Marshal Murat, NapoIeon's Famous
Cavalry Leader, Seemingly Had
Craze for "Fine Feathers"

Marshal Murat was the dandy
among Napoleon's generals. One Paris
tailor said that In some years he had
made as much as 100000 francs worth
of suits, overcoats and uniforms for
Murat. He liked to invent new and
fantastic uniforms, he strutted about
In a suit of sky-blue overalls covered
all over with gold spangles, and he
decorated his busby with aigrettes On
the occasion of his triumphant entry
into Warsaw when he supposed he
would be made king Of Poland, he
wore an impossible looking uniform,
red leather boots, tunic Of cloth of
gold, sword belt blazing with dia
monds. and a great busby of fur
decked out with costly plumes. On
this occasion Napoleon lost his temper
and testify exclaimed to his general:
go and put on Your proper uniform
you look like a clown" But the en-
perOr was not misled by Murat's love
Of inery, for 1t is recorded that he
once said of him: you may smite at
my dandified marshal, but you will no.
tice that when columns are shot down
today, Murat's CANDY plume will be

1t is not difficult to distinguish be-
tween spruce and hemlock in the
forest, when one learns to notice the
following points: The spruce has stiff
pointed leaves Cor short needless, its
bark scales are never bright red, and
the cones-smaller than those of the
plnes-hang down on the branches.
The hemlock, on the other hand, has
soft fiat needles, often two-ranked
that is, growing on two sides of the
stem, so that the sprig has fiat
tened appearance; hemlock bark
scales look red, when broken off, and
the dainty little cones stand erect on
their branches, falling apart soon
after ripening, so that no old cones
hong remain on or under the trees
where they grew. Lumber from the
two trees may be distinguished by re-
membering that that Of the spruce is
white. in color, while hemlock wood
retains its faint reddish tint.

WHALE is CHAMPION JUMPER
Mammal Easily Holds All Records
When 1t Comes to a Question Of
High Leaping.

If you were asked the question !:
what animal can jump the highest?"
you would in all likelihood, guess
wrong. 1t is the whale!
Oh, yes, the whale is mammal, not
fish. and he can jump out of the wa
ter to a height Of % feet with the
greatest ease. This is about twice as
high as the tiger, who can manage
about 1871 feet to IS feet. A dog has
been known to clear 10 feet, and the
horse follows next with Z feet 812
inches.
Mans record high jump was made
in 1914 by a Californian, who reached
6 feet SIG inches In 1913, the ire
mendous height of 5 feet 81 inches
was attained for the standing high
jump, though in 1892 q man reached
6 feet, with weights, at this jump.
AS regards the long jump, without
weights, the record. "a feet 11Ai
inches, was made in 1901, and 1t has
now stood for nearly twenty years.
The longest jump backwards, with
weights, is u feet II inches, and the
holder of this record also holds that
Of the standing long jump, without
weights, with u feet 11s inches.
Of animals, one might expect the
kangaroo to hold the record, but he
can only manage Is feet-ten less than
man-though, talking Of long jumps,
how about the grasshopper? He can
jump 200 times his own length.

REPEATED HIS GREAT WORK
When Thomas Carlyle Proved Invui-
nerabIe to the "SIings and Arrows
of Outrageous Fortune"

In 1885 there occurred an incident
which would have deranged an ordi,
nary man. Thomas Carlyle was living
at 8 Cheyne row, Chelsea, near Lon
don He had not earned penny, says
he 10 himself, "by the craft of ltera-
ture for % months" But with the
push of d tiger he was blowing his
way through his "History of the
French Revolution" The first volume
was finished. 1t had taken him five
months TO write it. He loaned the Mss
to John Stuart Mill On a certain
morning Mill called upon Carlyle, his
face as white as ashes. After two
hours of awkward fumbling Mill man.
aged to tell it-he had left the price
less Mss on desk and the housemaid
had taken 1t to light the morning ire
in the gratel Carlyle was like a
stricken man. But one day, as he sat
dumbly at his window, he saw CHEEKY
bricklayers building a house, brick by
brick. He burst into tears and, sob
bng like a child he cried: II, too, can
bring back thought by thoughts" He
did. He recalled all of the Mss. and
rewrote It. What torture!

only five more working days in the
month, so pll need only the ten rides.
Now, dad, you can't ask me to take it
out of my allowances. 1t simply can't
be done Anyhow, one of your old cor
porations declared a dividend recent
ly, and I didn't have to ask YOU for
any money for two weeks. That saved
you $50 and the ticket is only $40.
Why dad, you are S25 ahead at that !!
You're making money off your own
son, You can't do that! 1t isn't be-
ing done this year. I knew you
would feel as I do about It. Thank
you, ad."-Indianapolis News.

Arab Puts Comfort First.

The beautiful villas that remain in
Algeria are Moorish villas, for the
Arab does not care for things artistic
and comfortable that other races Of
the earth demand. If he were given a
house he would first remove the doors
and burn them; he would next drive
a hook into the facade to hitch his:
mule to, and then he would abandon
the chimney-place inside the house
and build his fire in the middle of the
room, defling oil the walls with
smoke. His personal ideas of comfort
come first
The Algerians are not like the
French. They are different in man
ners, customs, habits and morals, says.
Charles Divin in the Century. Even
the Arab remarks it, and calls all peo-
pie who come from France "Parisian.
Romans"
