Billy Whiskers
By Franc 8 1reso Montgomery.

As soon as some one suggested a ride for the goats the crowd took up the cry.
 "A ride for the goatsi A ride for the goats!'' Afraid of losing many passengers if he did not give heed to their wish, but filled with appre- hension at what might happen if he did, the fellow stopped the wheel as a car came around and two laughing girls with a blushing escort stepped out,
 With a 'tcluck, cIuck!" as if calling brood of chickens instead of two goats of splendid size, the guard ging- er1y held open the carriage door. To the amusement of the bystanders, neither goat made move.
 Better call, Come boss! Come boss!' :" laughed g. fellow in front, whereat there was a ripple of mer- riment.
 'If you want them to ride so bad, get sem in yourself!'' said the guard, his voice shaking as much as his knees, which knocked together in spite of his effort to control them.
 who's afraid?" And a, great, bur Iy six-footer stepped out, took his station, and called:
 Here, Bill! Here Bi11!'' holding the door of the mpartment open invit- ing1y.
 Billy Junior cast a longing look at the queer basket-1ike affair, curved his neck to look at his conrad and gave a gentle baah. He was urging his father to go along.
 Do come, DadH' he said Its not polite to refuse, is 1t 9"
 With a final doubtful shake of his ma gnificent head, the older goat gave in, and he was first to enter the car riage.
 It was with a sinking sensation somewhere around his heart that Father William heard the door click shut and the key turn in the lock- Both stood in the little cage, though it was a squeeze to do so, and Billy Junior meant to jump up on the seat to give his father more room, but the peculiar swdns sing motion as they moved out and up at the same time quickly drove such a thought from his mind.
 "Fine, isn't 1t, sir?'' he managed to quaver, for he thought he was in duty bound to act as if he liked it. "I don't-know," was the hesitat- ing reply. ''I-feeI-sort of queer. Do you?''
 ''w-h-e-r-e?" inquired his son un- steadily.
 "In my-stomach-I guess-or-is tiny heart?"
 1T know! You're seasick. And som I! Lemons good, they say"
 'Iemon!" sniffed his father. Might as we'll say the moon An, now we're over the worst. We're going down. Perhaps if things felt as if they were coming up when we went up, they will go down as we descend"

Right back st him. !"

Right back At him."
 How many times have you heard that cry from the coacher's box to a batter. But when the batter does unintentfona11y drive one back at the pitcher with disastrous results the fans forget the cry of battle and watch with sympathetic interest his case.
 Take for instance the recent injury to William Hubbe11, Phf1Iy pitcher.
 While pitching against the Dodg- CTS he was struck on the head by one of his own shoots driven back by the bat of Bert Griffith. Griffith was the first to reach his side and render first aid. Hubb belPs subse- quent fight for life was watched by the entire nation of fans.
 Hurbbe11 had been knocked about, considerably so to. speak. before be- ing knocked out by the ball. From Idaho Tech he went to the Paris Ok 1ahoma club. That was in 1917. The next season the Giants signed him, but he was buffeted around among the Joplin, Newark, Kansas City and Toronto clubs before he was traded by the Yankees to the Phi11ies with Art Fletcher for Dave Bancroft six days after his last recall by the New York club. That was in mfdsea- son, 1920. Last year with the Phils he won nine and lost sixteen games.

Sandy McGregor was broad and brawny Scot of highland fame. He was in London. and with him his trusty dog, Jock, of which he was very proud. He had many temp ting offers for Jock, but could not find heart to let him go, saying: "T could never part with him."
 An Influential American met him one morning and offered him a large sum for the dog. And when Sandy shook his head, the buyer doubled his first offer But still Sandy said, T cou1dna part wi him."
 Later in the day a Londoner offer ed him much less, and was prompt 1y accepted. The American meeting him shortly after said: 'T thought you told me you would not sell the dog, and you have sold him for much less than I offered you.' s.Na" said Sandy 'T said couldna part vi him. Ye ken. Jock couldna swim the Atlantfci"

DINNER STORIES.

A Mir. - was drawn on a jury in a murder trial and, needless to say, he did not want to serve. He made g. bet with one of his fellow victims that the judge would ex- cuse him without being asked to do SO.
 When his name was called, he was asked the usual questions and finally if he believed in capital punishment.
 sI do, your honor" replied MT. S- '1f 1t isn't too severe"
 Mr. g. won his bet.

DODGERS GOING STRONG
Robinsons Team Proves To Be the Sensation of National League Dur ing the Past Week.

New York, May 29.-In week marked by numerous upsets, together with sensational come backs" by Brooklyn and Cincinnati in the Ma tional league, the champion New York club clung to their leads in the major league pennant races, but only after meeting some of the stiffest opposition they have encoun- tered so far this season. The Giants emerged from the throes of slump just as Pittsburg threatened to jump to the top.
 Regaining confidence on their re- turn home, McGraw's champions saved an otherwise disastrous week by winning three straight from the Boston Braves, who had enjoyed the spotlight earlier in the week by talk ing four in a row from St. Louis. The Giants return to form, while the Car dinals and Rittsburghs were cutting each others throats in a ve-game series, enabled them to boost their lead today to three and a half games by virtue of victory over Philadel- phia, while Pittsburg dropped the deciding game of its series with the Cardinals.
 Displaying terrific strength at bat and with their pitching staff in rare form, the Brooklyn Dodgers forged rapidly to the front. winning eight out of nine games from Chicago and Philadelphia, including three double headers, while Cincinnati, the other sensation of the week, took three out of four from both the Giants and Cubs.
