her death, at the age of 140. and ac
cording to the inscription on her por
trait at Muckross abbey, Klllarney. "in
ye course of her long pilgrimage re
newed her teeth twice." The countess
appeared likely to beat all records for
longevity, when, relates Sir William
Temple, 'she must needs climb a nut
tree to gather nuts; so. falling down,
she hurt her thigh, which brought on a
fever, and that brought death."

X HERE'S A YARN, FOR THE
BASEBALL FANS.'
Here, f.-ius. is what appeal's to
be a new one at least it is new
to 'tis. When two clubs in Can
field. Colo., took the field recently
it was discovered that one side
was a man short. Iu spite of the
fact that Albert Billings support
ed himself by one genuine and
one cork leg. he gallantly volun
teered to substitute for the miss
ing man. In the ninth inning,
with the score 5 to 5. the cork leg
bobbed ui as cork will and the
last Canfield game of the season
broke up in a row. Billings came
up and. turning on the live pedal,
whaled out a two bagger. He
A stole third and started home
when one of his teammates hit
to shortstop. The shortstop tqssed
the ball to the catcher ten feet
ahead of the runner, the cork leg
flew off and crossed the plate,
while tha owner of the leg drop
ped to the ground.
The catcher stepped out and
tagged the prone figure, but the
umpire was watching closely and
ruled that the foot at the end of
the cork leg touched the plate.
The opposing team claimed that
Billings was out because the T
catcher tagged him before he T
crossed the plate. We rise to state T
that we consider this some story. J

GILLETTE,STAR QUARTERBACK
Wisconsin's Little Field General Hai
Done Some Great Playing.
Western football critics are of the
opinion that if Eddie Gillette, the
Badgers' star quarterback, keeps up
his brilliant work he will surely be
the selectioe for the position on the
EDDXS GIIjLKTTB, WISCONSIN'S STAKQUAK
TEKBACK. mythical All American eleven. No
quarterback jn the east or west has
performed as well as Wisconsin's sig
nal giver. In the game with North
western, which the Badgers won by
a score of 5G to 0. Gillette was the
bright star. His ninety yard run in
the last period of the game through
the' entire purple team was the most
brilliant play of the game. Near the
close of the first quarter Gillette broke
away for a fifty yard run, carrying the
ball to Northwestern's twenty yard
line. Wisconsin plugged the line and
sent Van Riper over left tackle for the
first touchdown. Gillette kicked the
goal.
In the game with Purdue Gillette
was the Individual star. His most bril
liant accomplishment was a sixty-five
yard run for a touchdown at the open
ing of the second quarter. Wisconsin
made six touchdowns, and Gillette
kicked every goal. Wisconsin won. 42

BUCKLE CURVE GOOD ONE.
Pittsburgh Pitcher Shows Fans the Old
John Clarkson Trick.
Ball scientists have burned midnight
oil to discover a substitute for the
spitball. the "turkey" trot, the fade
nway and the double shoot. Wilbur
Cooper, the Columbus recruit to the
Pittsburgh club, has beaten them all
to it with the shining "buckle curve"
Jt is a deceiving thing, this buckle
hhoot. It buckles and it bends. At
l ast that is what the batter thinks.
On the back of his glove Cooper has
a shining silver buckle. The master
of the "buckle curve" just assumes a
pitching pose and wiggles his thumb
and four fingers in the sunlight. Old'
Sol does the rest. The gleam from the
buckle gets in the batter's eyes, and be
is as helpless as a handcuffed man.
Griffith Signs Cuban Player.
Clarke Griffith has a fondness for
Cuban players and has Just signed one
for his Washington team. Jacinto
Calce is the man. He is one of the
stars of the island and is said to be a
better player than Almeida or Mar
sans, th Cincinnati stars.
Racine at His Work.
Hacine. the French writer, composed
his work while walking rapidly about.
shouting out the lines in a loud voice.
One day while he was thus composing
part of his play of "Mithridates" in the
Tuileries gardens in Paris be was sur
rounded by a group of workmen who
took him to be a maniac. On his re
turn home from these walks he would
write down scene after scene in prose,
and wheu'they were finished he would
exclaim. "My tragedy is done!" con
sidering the transposition of the lines
into verse only a trivial thing.

APPLE MARKET SHOWS
BETTER QUALITY
In the apple market there is a
slightly better feeling than has pre
vailed for some weeks past, due main
ly to the fact that a very considerable
portion of the inferior stock which al
ways figures in a large way in the of
ferings early in the season has been
disposed of.With the rough stuff to
a great extent out of the way, there
is a better average in quality for the
consideration of buyers, and this nat
urally works to the benefit of the mar
ket. , Prices, however, as yet show little
change, and the dealers say that in
all probability values will hold at a
relatively low level throughout the
season. On fair to good grade apples
the prices now quoted run from 75
cents to $1.50 a box, only exceptional
offerings such as fancy Winter Banan
as or other varieties of unusual qual
ity going at better prices. The trade
is still mainly in the grades that sell
at 75 cents to $L
While the prices now obtainable for
apples are materialrynder the aver
age of recent years, the result of the
unusually heavy yield in nearly all
parts ot the country this year, the
crop nevertheless is said to be re
turning a fair measure of profit t the
growers, especially those operating on
a commercial scale and putting out a
good grade product. The owners of ne
glected orchards in the Northwest this
year naturally are not making much
money out of their apples.

CHILDISH COSTUME.
Simplicity, Yet Richness,
In This Fur Coat.
OF MOLESKIN AND BBVUTE.
The little coat of moleskin Is match
ed by a babyish bonnet, and both are
trimmed with bands of ermine. A big
ermine muff completes the furry dain
tiness of this small girl.
Buttoned boots are worn by all chil
dren In the street, and the pictured
boots are of white buckskin with rib
bed stockings of heavy white silk.
Hints Worth Remembering.
An excellent way to prevent clothes
from freezing to the clothesline is to
dip a cloth In strong salt water and
wipe the line with it
To restore a waterproof . coat dis
solve a handful of best gray lime in
half a pailful of water and with this
solution wipe the coat at the hardened
parts. This should be done at Inter
vals of about four hours. After this
treatment a hardened waterproof laid
by as useless for years should be equal
to new.
The frames of old umbrellas or para
sols can be used very artistically for
creepers in a garden. Just open them,
strip off the silk, sharpen the handles
to a point and thrust them open into
the ground.
