a four game stay at the Wood

curious to see the outfit the vete-

The Barons still remember
those drubbings handed them
during the first few days of the

them to invade the mountains.
The fan flock decided then that
the Lookouts were but staging
their usual flash in the pan act.
but later developments have
shown them capable of beating
others than the Barons.
Nicklin stated early in the
year that he would try to give
Chattanooga good team for
once. and it seems that he is bent
on carrying out his promises.
Chattanooga is coming to

RAIN MAKES SEA
OF MUD AT TRACK

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 15.-Show-
ers throughout the day following an
early morning downpour. converted
the track at Churchill Downs into a
sea of mud today and conditions for
the Kentucky Derby Saturday were
forced to remain idle.
The advance guard of the derby
crowd was on hand, however, and
gossip concerning the approaching
classic served to fill the intervals be-
tween races at the Downs this after
noon.
Astute turf students here are said
to be greatly impressed with the
chances of 30 McMillin, and in some
quarters it was declared today that
the support of the western contingent
of derby fans had been placed solidly
behind the r. J. Pendergast colt. In
this connection it was pointed out
that the Kansas City turfmans can
didate is the only one in the west to
have performed creditably under
what apparently were approximately
derby conditions.
The fasteners are declared to be
divided. The Whitney combination,
it was said, leans toward Enchant-
ment and Picketer, while Rialto is de-
clared to be the dependence of Mrs.
Payne Whitney.
Vigil, w. j. Salmon's Preakness
winner, also has a large following,
and is being kept in top-notch condi-
ton by Trainer T. j. Healey.

Knitted Costumes
to Wear at Beach
Dresses and Sweaters Form
Colorful Part of Out
door Apparel.

II you are to be smartly dressed at
the beach this summer you must
eltner have a purse that can AFFORD
hand-knit dresses and sweaters or you
must be clever with your knitting and
embroidery needles; for this Is the
season Of seasons when hand-knit gar
ments are the thing to wear at the
beaches, says a fashion correspondent
n the New York Tribune. Fashion
has decreed 1t and the smart women
who appeared In the South this last
Winter-those women who set the
style In dress-appeared in such
gorgeous knitted yarn creations that
those who would be In style this sum-
mer give heed to the knitted garments.
The newest, and what bids to be one
OF the most popular beach costumes, is
q h~and-knit dress Of medium-weight
Worsted. The dress may be In one OF
TWO pieces. 1t is very effective, and II
properly made Of yarns that are Of
fast colors and good quality will hold
its shape and wash successfully. The
dress may be knit In simple or elab-
crate stitch. though the simple stitches

The large %bandanna handkerchief
which is usually tied around the sell

must also be embroidered in yarn this
season. The design chosen should be
the same as that on the bathing suit.
according to a fashion authority in the
New York Tribune.
Bath bags and hats are being shown
In the shops. One Of the most fasci-
Mating of the bags is of rough straw
with handmade wool flowers ON the
side. The hats are also trimmed with
handmade flowers Of wool, sometimes
crocheted and sometimes tied.
Sports hats Of all kinds for @ oh
wear are good when yarn trimmed.
Embroidered hats are very chic and
serviceable. Pompons OF yarn 10
match the sweaters or embroidery on
the dresses are also effective.
Hand-knit skirts, plain or embroid-
cred In yarn, Of wash goods, silk or
wooden, will be worn. So modish is
yarn trimming that some Of the pref
best and latest chiffon dance frocks
are trimmed with flowers made
Of bright worsted yarns.

seem to be most popular. Hand en-
1roidery of yarn In designs made Of
cross-stftch make the dresses more
elaborate. There is a growing ten
dency to embroider %hand-knit gar
fasnts with yarns of contrasting coIors.
AS for sweaters, each season ssas
them an important and colorful part
OF the outdoor wardrobe. No well
dressed woman can afford to be with
out three or four, and many a wom-
ans sweater drawer looks like q bit OF
the rainbow metamorphosed to yarns.
1t goes without saying that the hand
knit sweater is as superior to the ma
ohine-knit garment as handmade
lingerie Is to machine made. Since
war, when the art of knitting once
more become a universal accomplish
ment, many women prefer to knit their
own sweaters, giving them original
touches and designs that express their
own personality.

John Helm brought in a jar of

of his trees laden with twice as many
the first of the week, which he gave
to the writer. The plums are known
as Prof. Hanson's hybrid plums which
number three varieties, the Sapa,
Opata, and Hanska. These varieties
are hardy and well adapted to this
country. Mr.. Helms plurns bear
every year and give g heavier WELD
than wild plums, even when the lat
ter are cultivated. A great advan-
tage in the Hansen varieties is that
one ripens in August and the other
two in succession later spreading the
fruit season into the fall. They
bloom later in the spring, eliminating
the danger of frost destroying the
blossoms. They can be successfully
grated onto a wild plum root.-Fair-

Eats IS Pies and
 Then Graves More

Wichita, Wichita boasts of the heaviest eater and drinker on rec ord. He is George Washington Te- cumseh Sherman Jackson Simpson. His name is as long as his appetite.
 George is six feet tall, weighs 200 pounds, and is just 30 years old. He can take a baseball or five golf balls in his mouth and close his lips. He will eat 15 to 20 pounds of watermelon, rinds, seeds and all, for dollar, and at one sitting has made meal of the fol lowing delicacies: Three dozen raw eggs and shells, one peck of peanuts and shueks, three dozen bottles of pop.
 Recently he got into conversation with stranger on the street, and eat ing pie was mentioned. The stranger agreed to pay for all he could eat. They stepped into lunch room and ordered two. Simpson said:
 Don't stop with that. Bring out at least eighteen to start with.''
 They did, and he got outside of them, when the stranger refused to pay for any more. Another time he ate four dozen bananas, with peelings, on a bet, and stooa ready to eat more, but mo- body put up the money.
