TELLS HOW IT WILL E DOSE.
A Chicago Reporter Anticipates Method
of Pulltaer'a Journalistic School.
A clever reporter on the Chicago Record-Herald
anticipates the working of
Pulitzer's school of Journalism by out
lining what will be the probable course
In Instructing reporter on reporting a
game of baseball. Under the caption
"School of Journalism, Lesson I Base-
hall," he writes:
ii, uewriLes.
It is assumed that the student of Jour -
Hism is provided with cards on which
tin I

and the name of his paper In small type
at the lower left-hand corner. Thus pro
vided, the journalist is prepared to bnffet
the waves. Let us asanme for the first
lesson that th journalist is assigned to
report a baseball game. .

Never forget that a player "plllera the

that the "elongated twirler took an aerial
Voyage in the aeventh."
Kvery time the tillcher throws the ball
accurately it should be observed that be
"split ilie plate." Never be guilty ol re
cording that a batsman knocked a hiir.li
fly. In audi a canti the bataman "con

will be a revelation. It has been many
years since the merchants and manufac

is being entered into and much money
spent to make the exuinits as unique aim
attractive as possible. Many magnificent
booths are being erected and this feature
of the carnival alone will be worth dou

1 ttory well known to lawyer of the
last generation Is about the "umbrella
case." A man waa charged with steal
ing an umbrella, and a number of wit
nesses went luto the box to testify to
the offense. The counsel for the Oe
fendant noted that each witness car
ried an umbrella (the time of year was
midsummer, which explains the aeci-s-
aitT for these Imrx-dlmenta). As a I
matter of fact the prisoner had no de
fense to make. The barrister, thrown
n bis wit, exclaimed: "Gentlemen of
ths Jury, did you not notice that each
of tha witnesses carried an umbrella
Into the box 1 Why la thla, gentlemen?
It la dona In order to infect your minas
with the Idea of an umbrella, to preju
dice the prisoner In your eye, to raise
a false Issue.' and I appeal to you
to slinlfr your detestation of thla con
certed action by bringing In a verdict
of not anlltr." The Judge, who Ira-
airtned that little attention would be

Tattooing is still a favorite personal
decoration with some of the natives of
Samoa, though not so fashionable there
aa formerly. Those who practice the
art have an effective way of securlng
thelr pay. The color extends from the
waist to the knees, no other part of the
body being marked. In the small of
the back the design shades off to a
point which la never finished by the
tattooer till his bill has been paid. As

artist seldom has to wait long for his
