Z CALLAHAN TELLS OF A RE- J
J . MARKABLE PLAY.
There have been a lot of stories
J written about the freak plays of
Ty Cobb and other stars, but
J nothing they ever did In that
line compares with the feat of
2 Frank McKIcbols, according to J
Jimmy Callahan. Callahan told
Z of It recently. . J
Cal was one day playing short
for the Logan Squares with Me- J
Nichols on first Owens was
umpiring in the center of the
diamond and had unwittingly
J dropped a ball. Chick Fraser. J
who was pitching, sent a fast
2 one to the batter. He bit it Z
The ball jumped by Fraser on
Z the. ground and hit the lost ball Z
behind the bos. The hit ball
m jumped to Callahan at short
and the other ball went to third,
m where the player there corralled
it Both fielders tossed fiercely
J to first base, where Frank Me- ,
Nichols was stationed. Calla-
J ban's throw was wide and to a
the right of the first baseman.
2 The third baseman's throw was .
low and to the left of the play-
2 ing line. McNichols got them a
both. 2
ONE BILLIARD SHOT
COST DE 0R0 $2,450.
Billiards becomes more expensive
than joy riding when one shot costs
$2,450.
Yea, verily, friends, it's a gentle
man's game at that price.
Alfredo De Oro, the veteran Cuban
billiard and pool player, is telling his
friends how he made the most expen
sive shot ever recorded on the green
cloth.
In his recent match with John Daly
In New York, a match that did not in-

THIS SHOT COST SB ORO $2,150.
volve the title, De Oro was playing for
a side bet of $1,000, with a purse of
$500 added by the house. The ex
penses were deducted from this, leav
ing exactly $2,450 for the winner.
In the third and last block of the
match De Oro needed two points when
Daly needed only one to win. It was
De Oro's turn to shoot. The position
of the ivories Is shown in the diagram.
De Oro bad what promised to prove
an easy shot, a force follow to the
cushion with enough English to get the
corner cushions and complete the bil
liard. Without a second's hesitation
he clicked off the point rather . he
thought be did.
Referee Tom Gallagher then put in
his oar and declared that De Oro didn't
make the shot. There was an explo
sion with the Cuban as the storm cen
ter. De Oro wailed and whooped, but
old Tom Gallagher declared that the
shot bad not been made.
"Gallagher was the only man in the
house who didn't see the shot," de
clared De Oro recently. "I was so sore
at his decision that I blew up entirely,
and, although Daly missed bis next
try, I couldn't get going, and 1 lost the
match, 150 to 148. 1 should have won.
Had Gallagher allowed that point 1
had perfect position for the final shot
Gallagher's oversight cost exactly $2.

Kolehmainen and Bouin Likely to Press
Americans In Olympics.
William Kolehmainen. winner of the
Edinburgh Powderhall Marathon run,
had no great success during his visit to
America a year ago. His brothers
Hannes and Tatu are amateurs, while
William is a professional. Hannes
Kolehmainen is one of the greatest dls
tance runners developed in years. With
Jean Bouin of France, Hannes is likely
to make some of the United States run
ners hustle at Stockholm.
Hannes won a four mile champion
ship at Stamford Bridge, England, last
July in 20 minutes 3 3-5 seconds. He
holds all the Finnish records from 800
meters to 5.000 meters. At the last
Finnish track and field championships
Hannes won both the 5.000 and 10.000

Walsh Greatest Pitcher, Says Schuite.
"I could always get a hit or two
against Mathewson," remarked Frank
("Home Run") Schuite to a party of
friends after the Sox bad beaten the
Cubs four straight, "but against that
big fellow Walsh that pill looks like
a pea. He is the best ever."

For Tired Nerves.
After a trying afternoon In the shops
tr at business take a hot lemonade frith
a dash of pineapple fruit sirup and you
will be surprised at the revival of en
ergy and general relaxation It affords.
If the drink is taken at a soda fountain
be careful not to get chilled when go
ing out of doors. . Hot lemonade opens
the pores of the skin and causes one to
be particularly sensitive to cold.
No complexion lotion has been found
equal in beneficial results to lemon
Juice. The juice should be applied aft
er the face is carefully bathed In hot
water and a pure mild soap to remove
all particles of dust and grime. If con
tact with the face causes a stinging
sensation, as it is sure to do, it is mere
ly tangible evidence that the lemon is
doing its work.
The juice should be gently massaged
Into the face until dry and should be
allowed to remain on overnight. In the
morning bathe it off with warm water
and the merest hint of soap and apply
a greaseless cream and pure rice pow
der as a soothing Influence and a pro
tection from the cold. ;
Skin blemishes, such as pimples,
blackheads, buown spots and freckles,
yield quickly to this treatment which
eventually refines and bleaches as
well as improves the texture.
As for the flesh reducing value of
lemon, it lies in the well known fact
that acid Is the enemy of superfluous
flesh. Discomfort caused by added
pounds melts away before the fruit
diet for the simple and sufficient rea
son that when the outward supply of
flesh producing foods is cut off the
system feeds upon its own fatty tis
sues, much to the relief and joy of the
consumer and consumed.
So then, the season of candy and
sweets being past, let the beauty seek
er go in search of that homely little
fruit the lenioB.

The average reign of English mon
archs has been twenty-three years, of

potatFcrowers
are slow to sell
The potato-growers of the districts
immediately tributary to Oregon City
seem to be tightening their hold on
the supply. There are some sellers
in all parts of the country, and their
offerings are finding a fairly good
market at $1.25 to $1.50 a hundred
jat shipping points, but the improve
ment that has taken place in the mar
ket within the past week or two ap
pears to have stimulated the confi
dence of many of the producers in
the future of the market, and as a re
sult they are letting go less freely
than a month ago.
. Dealers report a continued good de
mand in the Southern State3, and find
no difficulty in moving all the good ;
grade stock they are able to obtain.
Most of the potatoes now going out of
the state go to Arizona, New Mexico, j
Texas and Oklahoma, and the indica
tions are that there will be a fairly ;
active movement in the states named i
for at least two months. In California !
the call is still for only strictly first
quality stock, and the demand for that
is limited. Most of the extra fancy
potatoes now being taken over by
dealers go to San Francisco.
The marketable surplus remaining
in Oregon is yet large. Estimates
show so wide a range as to make
them little more then random guesses,
but in all quarters it is conneded that
the suply of potatoes now remaining
in grower's hands is a very consider
able one. It Is belived, however,
that the demand in the Southern
States wil be such as to abaorb prac
tically everything available in this
state between now and the end of the
