There is a square cut-Out yoke with

Summer Fabrics
Are Fascinating

We hold out our hands to welcome
the real summer weather, because,
observes fashion writer, there comes
our chance to take on the picturesque
garments, and this year not only have
the summer fabrics been perfected to
formerly unsuspected degree, but
their hneness and beauty have In
splred the creators of fashions to work
them into more fascinating summer
trocks. There are things that can be
done with cottons and linens and soft
silks that could not be attempted in
more cumbersome fabrics. And this
year they have been done In a most
expressive way. OF trimmings there
are few and those which do appear
are handled In a restrained manner,
being applied only where they will
show to their best advantage. They

not one Of the other pitchers Of that
delivery was as good az Walsh or aa
threatening to the hitter's chances OF
making a good batting average"
Few will disagree with Quinn that
Walsh was the most effective of all
pitchers who used the saliva ball.
Next to him the one who knew the
workings Of the delivery better than
anybody else and who came nearer
TO making it scientifically effective
was Jack Chesbro. He and Walsh
were master Of it, though there may
be those who maintain that Coveles-
kie is almost, if not quite, as expert
with It as ChesbrO.
Burleigh Grimes also ranks high as
to skill with the wet fling, but he uses
1t a great deal, whereas Dick Rudolph
and the disgraced Clcotte were quite
as skillful with it, but didn't employ
it as much. They employed it more
in conjunction with other deliveries
Urban Shocker has as puzzling q spit-
ball as there is at present, one with
as deceptive qulrks as ChesbrO's, ball
players say, but he bluffs a good deal
with it. He uses a curve ball often
when making the motions of the moist
ball, and uses the two as part of eff
fective strategy. Quinn is using the
curve ball himself some, nowadays.

FINE PENCILS MADE OF
 COPPER FROM ARIZONA

Douglas-Russell Meadows, man. ager of the Douglas Drug Store, to- day is showing a display of Ever sharp pencils made of copper mined in Arizona !.
 Several weeks ago when the buy ingimade-of-copper campaign was introduced MT. Meadows con- ceived the idea of making an ever sharp pencil of copper instead of silver and gold.
 The pencils are highly polished and will retail in the neighborhood of s1.50, whereas the silver and gold pencils of the same make cost from $3 to s6.
 MT. Meadows has a letter from the Eversharp company telling him the experiment with copper was a sue cess. The pecils will be distributed throughout the country in small lots, and if the sales prove profitable the copper product will be specialized.

HOPES ID GUT COST ID MINES BY
 NEW ROAD

Ajo, AriZ., Nov. 15-General Mana ger Greenway of the Calumet and Arizona and New Cornelia companies, lately stated here that he had hopes for the early construction of the pro- posed railroad to the Gulf of Califoc- mia, though the project is not yet fully assured He said there had been determination to use lighters on the Gulf Coast, in view of the cost and delay involved in the construction of expensive wharfage. He emphasized the necessity for the new road in stating that it would save the New Cornelia company, in single year, about s300,000 in transportation costs on fuel oil. Cheaper freights are an absolute necessity, he said, to the operation of low-grade Arizona cop per mines, and only those with low cost sheets will be among the prop critics that are expected to resume production before the summer of next year. Plans that have been made for the development of the industry in clude establishment of a copper re- finery and a copper rolling mill at Ajo.
 There is expectation that by means of the new railroad there will be much reduction to be shared by all Southern Arizona copper mines, in the cost of bringing in such items as fuel oil. hard coal, timber and other supplies and in the shipment outward of copper bullion, which can have the cheapest of water transportation from the port to be established on the Gulf of California.
 The Calumet and Arizona lately offered prize of $50 for the best suggestion for increasing the uses of Copper The prize was won by Chas. Clason. of Bisbee, with suggestion that solid brass be used in the mak- ing of metal fittings for houses, in stead of the. iron-plated materials now: generally used, costing about 90 cents pound. MT. Clason stated that. under his plan, about 100 lbs. of brass would be needed in the con struction of every residence, and that this would mean an addition of 65,- O00Oo0 pounds year to the copper consumption of the United States.
