s pc a kin g of Sports


 last night in the roller hockey game between Hartford and New Britain. The first came in the third period, Ecoreless by the way, when "Rube" Williams went to hook the ball away from Earl Pierce. He got the ball alright, but his stick pulled it back so that the ball flew at his own cage. Bill Blount barely stopped it and saved his team another goal.
 The second came when il appeared that Gid" Brown and George Hart were having scrap in one corner Of the rink. Brown was laughing as the two grasped each other. When they separated. Hart kept tugsing at his stick and couldn't seem to get 1t away. It was stuck in one of the cracks in the corner of the banks and he couldn't pull it out. He thought Brown had hold Of it. The game was stopped until the referee pulled the stick out.
 The third came when Referee Ed die Hart called foul on Earl Pierce for tripping Jean. He had thrown bis stick at the ball and it had miss cd, catching instead. under Jeans skates. Jean went down and Hart called q. foul. There vas no kick from the New Britain player. but the fans yowled.
 The funny part Of all Of this was that Jean was all but murderlng several of the New Britain players in his efforts to stop them but not 2 violation was charged against him. Sometimes the referees are that way.
 A delegation of New Britain root CTS armed with horns and COW bells was stationed in one corner Of the bleachers and enough noise was made to last for the rest of the sea son. During q lull in the game, one of the wags shook a COW bell al Jean and hollered Jean, did you ever think 10 hang one of these around your neck so the others could find you?'
 The question would be appropriate for some Of these clubs in the league that arc addicted to rowing so much -Gloversville, for instance. Now you sec them and now you don't.

STANLEY RULE LEAGIE

Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-09-12

It is related that after Dean Jones
had lost sixpence to the great Duke of
Marlborough at cards, he did not imme-
diaLely pay 1t, whereupon the hero of
the Battle of Blenheim asked him for 1t.
II have no change" he said, land
need it to pay for chair to take me
home"
The dean settled and, it is related,
the duke then walked home with the
sixpence safe in his pocket.
Marlborough was frequently accused
Of being heartily reluctant to part with
money. But perhaps he was afraid of
his remarkable wife, Sarah, who was
VIGOROUSLY thrifty and whose Shrewd-
ness had a great deal to do with her
climb to fame, fortune and ducal title.
Earah's girlhood friendship with the
Princess Anne gave her a powerful hold
upon that lady, and she maintained it
for a long time after Anne became
Queen of England.
The Duchess of Marlborough was
keeper of the Queens privy purse. Abb
surd as it may seem, she was able
through her domination over Anne, ito
keep her, for long time, in a state OF
absolute penury.
The Queen was unable to obtain the
slightest sum without a terrible fuss
Being herself of generous nature, she
had showered the richest prizes upon
both the duke and the duchess, and this
treatment from Sarah seems all the
more ineXcuSable,

SO enjoyable were these affairs. that
after Harding's death a movement was
launched to continue them. Conse-
quently, there grew up at the, Burning
Tree what is called Senatorial four
somes." Not all of the players are Sen
ators, but because of the predominance
of them the name was applied.
Howard Sutherland, formerly United
States Senator from West Virginia and
now alien property custodian, Is the
so-called captain of these foursomes.
Promptly at $50 O'Clock one morning
each week the golfers sit down to big
breakfast at the Burning Tree. These
breakfasts are given by each man In
turn.
When breakfast is concluded, Suther-
land makes up the foursomes-accord-
ing to the handicap of each player
The matches are then played. the win
ming foursome announced and also the
man with the lowest score for the day.
During the Coolidge administration
three cabinet memberS-FTank B. KEEL
logg, Secretary of State; Dwight Davis,
Secretary of War, and William M. jar
dine, Secretary of Agriculture-were
regular members of these foursomes.
Attorney General William D. Mitchell
and Joseph P. Cotton, Undersecretary
of State, play regularly.
Others who comprise the foursomes
are Senators Couzens of Michigan, Har-
rison of Mississippi, Capper of Kansas.

By D. c. PEATTIE.

are 1ooking-glass resemblances, resem-
blanceS in reverse, when the Autumn
days grow shorter, flowers fade, and
frost is limited In the frightening
nights.
Autumn Flowers.
There Is a most particular and deli
cate charm in all those flowers that
wait till Autumn for their first appear
ance. In this class the aster and the
gentian have been sung innumerable
times by poets. But few people seem
to know that in Autumn comes q Sec
ond pulsation of blooming from the
orchid family. And now is that season
of the year when woods may be RAM
bled, boys trotted, for handful of those
last frail sweet blossoms of the queen
of families.
The second blooming Of the orchids
does not mean that any Of the Spring
and Summer flowers will repeat them
selves. Quite the contrary, the five shy
species Of the Indian Summer never
appear before late August
Two of them are SaprophyteS that
is to say, plants that live upon decay
ing vegetable matter, as parasites live
on living plants. And both bear some
of the stigmata OF the lazy saprophytic
life. In place of the healthy green of
places and ways are strange puppies
and ochres; an odd, almost fllnguslike,
odor is exuded from them, and the
flowers have an elflsh, unearthly shape
and color. One is the coral-root, an
other the crane-fiy orchis.
Wholly charming are the three spe-
cies of ladies' dresses that are blooming
now, though only the sharp eye will
find two of them In bog and slough
grass One, Is frequent in open mead
ows, however, and you may know 1t at
once by the way its flowers twist around
the stem in a close rank. They would,
indeed, resemble q maiden'S curls, ex-
cept that they are silver white, so that
it must have been a Colonial lady with
powdered locks who was changed into
this flower.
One of the ladies' -tresses Is deliciously
fragrant, the sweetest of all our native
orchids. The odor Is claSSed as that OF
woodruff, which is q word that conveys
nothing to most people, including my
self. To me the odor is like that of
sweet grass, such as baskets are made
of for sewing-boxeS mingled with the
aroma of birchbark and Of vanilla.
There is Just one other Autumn or
child, a species Of rattlesnake plantain,
and It is a mystery. There exists, hid
den away in the dust Of Government
collections, specimen Of this rare
sprite. The specimen Is labeled North
west Branch, Sept. g." Who collected
it? In what year? Nobody knows; no
body has ever found this orchid again
Perhaps in damp woods along the
Northwest Branch people fnd it still
and pass 1t by unnoticed, not realizing
that it Is a great rarity.

material IS inches long and 2N inches
wide to go between the two sides, and
two little triangular p,-ces to set in
this strip at the two sides of the bag
so that it may be opened wide. Then
you will need two slender sticks or
whaleboneS about inches long to run
in the slot of the bag at the top and,
If you like, material with which to line
the bag.
For the front of the bag you will
need to cut two pieces from the squares.
In cutting these pieces follow the OUT
line shown in the diagram, bearing these
dimensions in mind: Alb, CD, AC and
BID equal Is inches. &c and Ed equal
inches. AG and BIZ, IL inches; CT
and HI, inch. Curve the bottom of
the ieces off h zen z and F as
shown in the diagram, making sure that
both sides are alike. Turn the mate
for the S-inch sticks or whalebones
along II.
Cut a strip IS inches long and 4
wide for the side piec,. There is a
diagram to show the ends of this strip,
in which XII is "a inches. the width of
the strip. Make a slit, MN, in the ends
of the strip. MN is inches long, then
cut two right-angle triangles Of the
material inches long on the side OPP
poslte the right angle. This is shown
as MIN in the third diagram. Now
insert one of these triangleS at either
end of the strip and sew in q narrow
seam along the wrong side.
For the frill you will neeo#wo strips
2 yards and 3 inch long and l inch
wide. Fold and crease this strip length
wise so that you will have double strip
- inch vide, and have this knife
pleated or else lay 1t in knife pleats
yourself. Basic one of these pleated
strips along the edge of each side of the
bag pieces so that the edges of the bag
and the raw edges of the ruffle form a
seam on the wrong side. Now join the
two bag pieces so arranged to the 212-
inch strip, with the tops marked KIM
and NIL Joining the sides of the bag at
] and L. Run the narrow sticks or
wholebone in the slot and finish the
ends of the frill at the top of the bag
by turning in the edges where B is
turned over on HI and AG on CT. Make
two 16-inch handles from strips of ma
terial and attach them to the inside OF
the bag.
If you want to line the bag, cut the
lining like the sides of the bag, using
OH as the top instead Of ALB. Also cut
a lining for the 2l2-inch strips and the
triangular pieces. Put them together
exactly as you have - the bag piec
together, emitting, Of course, the knife
pleating, and slip the lining into the bag
section, turning the top of the lining
under and sewing to the inside of the
bag before the sticks are inserted In the
slots.

HONEST DOLLAR

It's good when one Is bent and old,
with trembling limbs and muscles sore,
to have some little store of gold to
keep the gaunt wolf from the door.
It's pleasant to sit up and count the
rubles, crowns and kindred junk, and
know in all that fair amount there's
not a single tainted PUNK. They all
were gained by honest toll, by honest
trading in the mart; you played the
game set forth by Hoyle, and tried no
crooked vile or art. I do not envy
much the gent who in old age surveys
his wad, and knows that nearly every
cent was gained by stratagem or fraud.
When he draws near to Jordan'S brim,
worn-out pilgrim, tired and gray, he
wonders why he used to trim con-
f1ding suckers every day. He knows
that where he's going now he cannot
turn much hokum loose, for wrath
will clothe the Judges brow when he
puts up a cheap excuse. 1t must be
grievouS to reflect, whene drawing near
to Shadowland, he wos most happy
when he wrecked some other fellows
peanut stand. He cannot wear a
happy smile when thinking as the sun
goes down, that by his system, fraught
with guile, he ruined Smith and
bunkoed Brown. He's looking backward
all the time, as old men do, forever
HlOIe, anu ne remembers every CIlIne
that he pulled off in days of yore.
There is no comfort anywhere for such
man, at Jordan's marge; and in
sort of sick despair he views the bun
die that's so large. He is happy man,
indeed, whose boarded coins are free
from stain; who gladly counts the
chickenfeed that gives him shelter from
the rain. He knows that every coin he
paws was gained without sinful vile.
and so he feels like Santa Claus, and
wears . large elastic smile.
