Of knowledge in the technique Of the
game would be submerged in the tech
nique Of the writer.
One of Americas best known sports
writer's began his career as a youthful
reporter. About the only game he knew
was base ball. One day, two English
cricket teams were scheduled to play
in his city. The only cricket with
which he was familiar was the one on
the hearth and that only by hearsay.
| The sports writers were engaged that
day covering" other events, and the
young chaps editor inquired If he knew
anything about the English pastime.
Here was his chance to make good, and
he replied that he knew all about it.
Cover this game, then" instructed
the boss.
The first thing the young reporter
did was to visit the hotel where he
learned that one Of the teams was
staying. He listened to the members
and other enthusiasts discuss the game.
He seized eagerly upon words and
] phrases peculiar to the game Then he
visited a library, where he consulted
authorities on cricket.
| The afternoon of the game found
him extremely well versed in the fine
| points Of the game and familiar with
the vernacular as well. His editor was
astonisfed at the excellent story he
sent in and number of British read
ers commented favorably on the story.
The youth was Immediately assigned
| to cover all sports, with the result that
he became as proficient in that depart
| ment as the old-timers. He combined
with his skill an uncanny cleverness
| in the art of illustrating his own
stories. Today his name is known
wherever sportsmen foregather and his
reports on sports have become classics.
| y II k%
The following probably would not
happen today, but his enterprise and
nerve landed an aspiring youth at the
top Of the heap. He had applied to
every newspaper In his city without
success. For weeks he sat in a park
| opposite a large newspaper Office and
wished that he might be a part of
that throbbing, vital profession Change
was at low ebb and his situation was
rapidly becoming desperate. Besides
1t was cold on a park bench, even
though he was warmed by ambition.
Finally, he decided upon a bold
stroke. He entered the newspaper Of
fee at which he had gazed long and
yearningly. 1t was large shop" and
no attention was paid to him. New
men were coming and going all the
time. He found a vacant desk anc
made himself at home even though he
had no copy to write.

Honors Are Divided.

For the first time in many q year
we are attaching a certain fashion jim
portance to all Of the fabrics. SoNde-
pleted were wool and cotton resources
by the war that for a long time silk
reigned supreme as the fashion fabric.
Then the cotton fabrics grew lovelier,
finer In quality, more artistic in design,
in greater variety of textures, until
last season they made q bid--and a
successful one-for fashion recognition.
For several seasons we have been hear
ing about the prominence Of wool fab
RIGS across the seas, but not until the
return to fashion favor of the suit have
the woolens been brought to our atten-
ton. Then it was the tweedy aspect
that fascinated US Today other wooden
weaves, many of the old favorites, are
interesting us.
For the strictly tailored suit, double
breasted and with notched collars, man
nish suitings, clearinghouse, bird's-eye,
chevrons and sharkskins divide the
honors with suede-finish woolens.
Coverts. too, are well represented, par
ticularly in the long coat suits with
fitted lines and trim tailor type dresses.
Serge promises to forge to the front,
already appearing In some of the smart
est Of the cape suits and separate cape
coats. You will find soft woolens with
diagonal weaves In luscious pastels used
as coats Of plain or printed crepe
dresses.

WINTERTIME
BIZ D. G. PEATTIE.

Above the trees Of Arlington Gene
terry, centenarian white oaks IN silvery
nakedness, rises the crow's-nest Of the
battleShip Maine. symbol of defeats and
victories in the days when battleshipA
still had such quaint old ornaments as
wooden masts and crow's-nests. But
the great crow's-nest of Arlington Is a
Master Grow, ShowieSt, noiSieSt and
most lovable bird of Winter, has picked
on Arlington Hill as his favorite Win
ter quarters Of this part of the coun-
try, and this he did for some reason
best known to his willy old brain, In the
days before the protection afforded by
consecrated ground had been extended
to the oak-hung hill.
The Arlington "rookery" Il am
tempted to invent the word "crowery,"
since we have no rocks in America) has
contained as many as 10000 crows, II
memory serves me rightly.
The common crow is not quite mi
gratory bird; or rather, in Summer he
spreads into every corner of the coun-
try, while in Winter he withdrawS to be
near his own kind. preferring the mid
die ATTITUDES. The great center Of crow
Information in Winter on the Atlantic
seaboard is the Chesapeake Bay region.
The lessened snowfall Is perhaps one ex-
PLANTATION of this fact, for his sagacious
eye Is able easily to find his favored
foods in our region. But even when the
weather Is very severe thousands Of
crows obstinately remain in the Arling-
ton rookery.
One Winter 1t was so cold that the
corneas Of their eyes were frozen, and,
being blind, they died Of starvation.
There have also been at least two cpl
denies in the famous old rookery of a
sort OF throat disease producing effects
like asthma or diphtheria and causing
death by strangulation.
Epidemics are not by any means con-
lined to human beings. All the social
animals, living in colonies like crows,
are subject to them. A disease Of bees
runs through beehive the way con-
sumption runs through a dark and dusty
tenement building. Caterpillars. swal-
lows and many others have their plaques
and parasites.
The Arlington rookery, with its fluc-
tuating population, illustrates to perfec-
ton the operation Of natural factors
controlling social growth. The colony
cannot grow bigger than the food supply;
when 1t does 1t has to scatter or starve
And 1t may shrink far below the food
supply. owing to accidents like disease
and billiards.
The crow is also typical Of the sort of
animal that is going to survive in the
struggle for existence-and nowadays
that means the struggle to adapt life
70 man-made conditions. AS destroyer
OF crop pests the crow is very useful to
man, and at the same time he is a very
successful grain thief himself. He is
wary, not finicky with respect to food,
and his system of sentinels and cav
signals has military efficiency that In
sures him success that no other birds
can approximate.

Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

February IL, 1S59.-As soon as the
| Senate bill for the admission OF Ore
| gon as State was passed by the House
this afternoon it was decided to cele-
brate the event by general serenade.
About $50 o'clock large concourse OF
citizens. headed by the full Marine
Band, marched to Browns Hotel where
Gen. Joseph Lane, Senator ELECT from
tn new State of oregon, Is stopping.
After several stirring airs had been
played by the band, Gov. Stevens OF
Washington Territory appeared upon
the balcony and introduced Gen. Lane,
who briefly addressed the assemblage.
We have cause to rejoice" said Gen.
Lane. Our whole country has cause
for congratulation, for in my Judgment
the admission of oregon is a great
event, national blessing.
"A bulwark has been raised this day
on the rockbound shores of the Pacific
against foreign invaders and a fresh
assurance has been given for the per-
petuation of the Union. Oregon has
been settled by the hardy and the en-
terprising from every section of the
country and feel sure that her sons
will recognize no North, no South, no
East, no West, In the fulf1llment of
their duties as citizens Of the whole
Union.
4WCIIy 0IdDC6 have DGGL1 dQUc0 W
the confederacy since the establishment
Of our independence, and it Is crafty
ing to know that each and every one Of
them has been admitted under Demo-
cratic administrations or by q Demo-
cratic Congress. We now have two
States on the Pacific Coast and ere
long we will have the Territory now
represented by my worthy and talented
friend, Gov. Stevens. knocking at the
doors for admission. Then we will have
our portion of the Pacific Coast organ
lied into States to further strengthen
the bands of the Union"
Senator-elect Lane referred briefly to
his labors in bringing about the passage
of the Oregon statehood bill and ex-
pressed his personal qualification at the
result. After several other speeches had
been made the crowd marched to the
White House.
In response to repeated calls, Presi-
dent Buchanan appeared at window
and said few words. He congratulated
the people of Oregon and said he did
not expect to veto the bill. Expansion,
he said, was In future to be the policy
of the country, towards alone fearing
and opposing 1t. He called for yam
kee Doodle" which was played by the
Marine Band in a spirited manner.
Before the crowd dispersed 1t march
ed to several other places and listened to
other speeches in celebration Of the ad-
mission Of oregon.

1t In an upright position, with its
weight balanced in the most econom-
ical way. The slouching posture is
very fatiguing because it fails to do
this.
The third step for developing the
figure must not be overlooked, and that
Is q SUFFICIENT amount of nourishing
foods taken at regular intervals. Fats
such as cream, butter, oil. bacon and
cheese should be used freely. Milk may
be added to each meal or taken be-
tween meals. Cereals eaten with cream
and sugar and bread spread with
plenty OF butter are doubly valuable
Fruits and vegetables stimulate the APP
petite and supply minerals, vitamins
and roughage. Meat, fish, chicken or
meat substitute should be taken at
least once day. Nourishing soups,
milk puddings, desserts and salads
should find place on the menu every
day.
There is q fourth means for develop

should not be neglected. This Is a

The distinctively feminine note Is
being stressed in this seasons clothes
and coiffures. The fiat. boyish figure
has lost favor, thanks to The spread
OF accurate scientific knowledge from
physicians and authorities ON this sub
ject who have pointed out the dangers
girl or woman invites when she de-
liberately keeps her weight below nor
NAL and her body undernourished. The
normal, truly feminine flglre Is reas-
serting itself, and now women and girls
are seeking well developed figures in
place of the beanpole figure that used
to be the criterion Of feminine rnodish-
tween being slender" and being
thin; the former state is desirable,
the latter Is not, because every normal
girl or woman wants the marks Of
health. Well rounded contours, clear
skin and shining eyes are indicative
Of well regulated body.
Usually the hat-chested young won-
an also is underweight for her age
and height. If a girl whose correct
scales at only 100 pounds, she shows
her undernourished condition, as q rule,
in her scrawny neck and arms. Her
hips and legs may be fairly well pro-
portioned, but the whole upper part Of
her body Is too thin. OF course, this
deficiency In development makes the
lower part Of the body seem too heavy,
in her estimation. And girls with this
type of figure very often make the
mistake of going without sufficient
nourishing food In the hope Of reducing
the lower limbs instead of filing out
the upper parts. The result of this
method Is to emphasize rather than
cure the defects In proportions. This
constant practice of keeping the sys-
tenn undernourished and the vitality
low puts the body in the right condi-
ton for developing bronchial trouble
and very often tuberculosis.
The first thing to do, therefore,
toward developing the chest is to see
that your weight is not below the
average for age and height. If you
are underweight, consult your ply
sician to see If you have any symptoms
which may indicate disease The sec
ond step Is to cultivate correct posture;
that is, carry your body with chin up,

One Of the last scandals Of the late
imperial regime in Germany and Aus
tria was the second marriage of old
Duke Ludwig Of Bavaria.
The dukes family was an unfortunate
one. OF his five sisters, Empress Eliza
beth OF Austria, wife of Franz Joseph,
was assassinated. A second was acct
dentally burned to death. Another was
dethroned, and two others lived tragi-
cally sad lives.
For most Of his life Duke Ludwig
avoided the sorrows of his relatives
He married for love, picked as his wife
beautiful VienneSe actress, Henrietta
Mendel, renounced succession to the
Bavarian throne, and forsook politics
Henrietta made him a good wife, and
he lived happily until her death.
This sad event plunged him into ILL
ness and despair, from which nothing
1t seemed, could deliver him. Then he
met a middle-aged Prussian woman
Nine. Won Bartoll.
Strangely enough, Kaiser Wilhelm
who abhorred morganatic marriages
favored this one. It is said that hopes
were dangled before Nine. Won Bartoll
that she would be made a duchess in
her own right and received by the
Bavarian royal family If she would play
nurse to the duke in his last days.
These hopes entangled her In q to-
tally unexpected moraSs Of unhappi-
ness. obviously enough, Duke Ludwio
had no sooner made her his wife than
he began to hate her.
The wedding ceremony had scarcely
ended when the memory of his dear
Henrietta came back to him with such
force that he loathed himself for ever
having forgotten her, and his second
wife for having helped him to do so
He almost assaulted Nine. Won Bartoll
in the presence Of the priests.
His wife was unable to understand
his sudden aversion. When they were
alone in the palace she sought to put
! her arms around him. In q. tempest
Of rage. he struck her and tried 20
strangle her. Servants who came run
