WHEN HEITMUELLER MADE
PITCHER H I GG IN BOTH AM
QUIT. t
Irving Higginbotham, the lanky
twirler once connected with the
Chicago Cubs, was with the
Portland squad of the Pacific,
Coast league last season. Los '
Angeles was playing on the Port
land grounds one day. It was
the eighth Inning, and the
score was tied, 3 to 3. The An
gel center fielder, Heitmueller
who died last year walked to
the plate and hollered out at
Hig:
"Hey, you! Put that ball any
where near me and I'll shoot it
up against the right field fence."
. Higginbotham threw the ball
down in the box and walked off
the diamond.
"Not off me. yon won't!" he
exclaimed.
The Portland manager couldn't
get Hig back in the box, so had
to send Koestner to the mound.
And the first ball be threw to
Heitmueller was hit against the
right field fence. At least that" s
the story Joe Berger tells.
RULES FOR SONDER RACES.
German and American Club Agree en

The German-American race commit
tee of the Kaiserlicher Yacht club of
Kiel and the Eastern Yacht club of Bos
ton has issued in circular form the
rules and conditions that are to govern
the races, beginning Sept. 1 off Marble
head, of the sonderclass yachts.
The trial races for the selection of
the three American yachts that are to
compete are to begin off Marblehead
on or before Saturday, Aug. 16.
j Each yacht must be designed, built
; and all sails, sailcloth and fittings
j made in the country to which she be
j longs, and the crew must be made up
! of amateur members of the yacht clubs
which are admitted to the trial races.
The crews are to consist of not more
than three persons, who must be citi-
zens of tha country in which the yacht
was built,.
There will be five races, for each of
which prizes wU be given by the East
ern Yacht club. The President Wilson
cup will go to the yacht which first
wins three races or wins the fifth race j
of the series. In case the deciding race
is the third, the winner will not be al
lowed to compete In the further- races.
ARCHER HAS TWO JOBS.
When Not Catching He Will Play First
Bast For Cubs.
Jimmy Archer, .though signed to
catch for the Chicago Cubs, may play
first base the greater part of the sea
sou. Manager Evers can easily afford
to go through with this plan, as he has
j Roger Biesnahjiu to work behind the
plate while the squsit throwing receiver
I is on first base Evers does not paean
J that this should reflect on the playing
; ability of Vic Suier. the club's regular
first baseman. That is far from being

JIMMY ARCHER OF THE CUBS.
in his mind. He considers Saier one of
the best fielding initial basemen In the
league and would not even think of re
moving him if it were not for his weak
ness in batting against south paws.
Slow curve balls thrown by the port
siders are Saier's hoodoo. Putting
Archer on first base will not lessen the
strength of the club in fielding. When
Frank Chance was unable to play two
years ago be took Archer from behind
the plate and put him on the first bag.
His work was as classy as could be ex
pected, and the bitting he did while he
was there kept the team in the race.

The Wake of a Ship.
"Wake" for the track of a ship is a
Scandinavian word, preserved In dia
lect. Its original meaning, as Professor
Skeats tells us. was that of an opening
in the ice, especially the passage cut
for a ship in a frozen lake or sea, and
then, from being applied to the smooth,
watery track left by a ship after its
passage through the ice. it came to be
used when there was no Ice at all.
This useful word Is one of the nautical
terms which the French have borrow
ed from the English, although It Is
not easy to recognize it at first In its
French form of "ouaiche," and it is
still used on the "Norfolk broads with
its original meaning of an open plac

FIRST AID TO THE COOK, t
Every cook knows the patience and
time wasted in hunting holders, which
seem to have a way of disappearing
Just at the moment that they are most
needed. All this may be avoided by
sewing two holders at the end of Inch
tapes, which are suspended from a
tape band which fastens around the
waist, just as an apron band does. Let
them reach to the bottom of the dress,
one at each side of the waist line. They
will always be ready when needed.
Have some of your, kitchen holders
made of double size and stitched to
gether on three sides, so that the hand
can be thrust into them almost as into
a mitten. This will save the hands
from getting red, rough backs, which
readily crack and chap. . .
H H
A handy hook is made, by taking any
smooth stick and inserting into one end
a good strong screw hook, right angle
shape. It is nseful for various pur
poses. It wilj draw hot utensils from
the oven, pull down window shades
that have jumped beyond one's reach,
pull windows down from the top and
reach anything tucked away In the cor
ners of shelves, etc.

Elephant Nurses.
India has some of the strangest chil
dren's nurses in the world, for many
elephants are used there in that way.
The mother or nurse who wants to be
relieved of the care of the baby for
awhile shows it to the elephant, and
then places it within reach of the long,
twisting trunk. No matter how the
child may try, it cannot get away from
the big beast, who gently brings- it
back by an infolding circle of the
trunk if It begins to stray. The little
creature may tumble about as it will
between the four big feet: not one of
them will brush Its dress carelessly.
Even elephants which are cross to
other people are gentle to their keep
ers and may be trusted with children
without the least danger.

Why It's Called Worsted.
The cloth is called worsted because
it was originally manufactured In large
quantities at Worsted. England, which
was then a comparatively Jarge and
flourishing place. .
A WELL SPENT LIFE.
He has achieved success who has
lived well, laughed often and loved
much ; who has gained the respect
of intelligent men and the love of
children ; who has filled his niche
and accomplished his task ; who has
left the world better than he found
it, whether by an improved poppy,
a perfect poem or a rescued soul ;
who has always looked for the best
in others and given the best he
had ; whose life was an inspiration,
whose memory a benediction.

I An Old Favorite I
The Lost Chord I
SEATED one day at the organ,
I was weary and 111 at ease,
And ray fingers wandered idly
Over he noisy keys. .
I know not what I was playing
Or what I was dreaming then.
But I struck one chord of music '
Like the sound of a great amen.
It flooded the crimson twilight
Like the close of an angel's psalm,
And It lay on my fevered spirit
With a touch of Infinite calm.
It united pain and sorrow
Like love overcoming strife.
It seemed the harmonious echo
From our discordant life.
It linked perplexing meanings
Into one perfect peace
And trembled away into silence.
As If It were loath to cease.
I have sought, but I seek It vainly,
That one lost chord divine
Which came from the soul of the organ
And entered Into mine.
It may be that death's bright angel
Will speak in that chord again.
It may be that only in heaven .
I shall hear that grand amen.
Had a Tail!
had a tail to wag.
I conld tell then
A Legend.
I have heard that all the tears
That we never cry
All are saved throughout the years
Until some time by and by,
When they're changed to jewels gay.
Gems that fairies far away
Catch and fling upon the grass.
We can see them as we pass,
And they make the morning bright
With their gleaming, happy light
Think! Tho drops of dew you see
Might belong to you or me!

YOUNG SCIENTIST
HAKKDI8C0VERY
While conducting personal experi
ments with sodium, the better to dis
cover its properties, "Tub" Gault, a
student at the high school, discovered
Monday that wnen the chemical wa3
mixed with water and certain other
ingredients an explosive of no mean
force could be obtained. The result
of Gault s experiments sounded con
siderably like a Fourth of July cele
bration, and was followed by a show
er of minute particles of glass about
the laboratory. ,
The experimenter- himself was
about as surprised as his fellow stu
dents, and though the instructor in
chemistry was rather inclined to
take a serious view of the matter,
and discouraged original research of
such a nature, no damage was done.
After being reprimanded Gault prom
ised never to do it again, and even ad
mitted, with a twinkle in his eye, that
he probably couldn't do it again, be
cause he didn't know what he had
pournad into "the stuff to make it
go off.
