OPINIONS OF MEN CHANGE.

Before and After Estimate of a Base- " ball Umpire By a Fan. “That gentleman who is to umpire. the game to-day is an old Triend of mine," said the mild-man-nered baseball fan to his neighbor as they sat leaning forward in the grandstand, their eagerness over the coming contest enhanced by tbe stentorian command, "Play ball!” "He’s one of the squarest and Jinest of men. Yes, sir, he’s as nice a fel- -Say. watch the graceful —attitude of our first batter! He's got bis eye with him to-day, too, for see h<jw be lets this first bad one go—Wnat did the umpire call that?” “A strike,” replied bis neighbor. "Now, what do .you think of that? Bail went a mile wide of the plate! Well, umpires will make mistakes. Ive seen At this juncture a crack rent tbe air Und the ball sailed on a line to ward the left-field fence. The mild-mannered man was on his feet in a jiffy. "Oh, what a swat! Run, run Itke the dickens! Go on and make it a thdmer! Look at that cuss go, will you? Go on; keep a-going. Don’t stop. Make it—What's.that?” “The umpire called it a foul!” , “A foul? He’s crazy! Say, Mister Umpire put on your glasses. A foul! Good Gad, man, you're the limit! Throw him out! Go lay down somewhere, umpire? You’re rotten! Rotten! Rotten!” And in his disgust the mild-man-nered fan slapped his derby hat down on the seat and sat on it.

BLUFFERS

Mae —It is dangerous to. marry a man for his money. Dolly It is indeed, dear. Half those fellows really haven't got it.

Preferred the Green Plag.

There is an old Irishman in Baltimore who for many years was prosperous as a grocer. Not long ago. however, the old man lost his all in •a side line” and was compelled to lock for a job. Through the influence or a friend he was offered the position of crossing-tender at a small railroad station in Maryland. The Silt looked dubious at the duties of u6* office were explain-d to him and :»* mcaniPS of be various flags was Muted. "In case of danger, you wave the red fj-g,” explained the man told to instruct Mike. "Wait a bit. wait a bit,” Interrupted Mike, with a doubtful shake of the head. "I'm afraid this job’d be too much for me. I could never trust mesilf to renumber to wave a red flag whin there was a greeu wan handy.”

Playing on the Piano.

“Mamma, can we play on the piano?” a little South Side boy asked Saturday. "Yes, if you are careful,” replied his mother, a few minutes later she heard a racket iu the parlor, and looking in saw her little sou sitting on top of the piano wdth his feet on the keys while his playmate was trying Ltf climb Into the Instrument. "Here, what are you boys doing?’’ she asked. "Playin’ on the pianq,” replied her son; “you said we could.”

In a Moment of Relaxation.

A medical journal has a story to the effect that a woman who was seriously awoke one night to find thg nurse sitting at the foot of her bed, smoking a cigarette and reading a novel. Greatly startled, the patient raised herself up In her bed, and cried you doling, nurse?" To which the nurse, dropping Cigarette and novel in amazement, replied. “Good gracious!

Beginning Anew

Pickert pulled his slouch .hat sell further down over his eyes, and look ed stealthily at the store as he shuf fled past. But in that glance he had seen all that he needed to finish his report. He had walked this way before. «. The captain was a strict man, anu if a-report did not-please him, ■ Pickert weh knew that Ire was not the one to show any leniency in his dealings with the offender. But he*waa ■confident that his report this time oouhi not fail to please his superior. It was not infrequently that Pickert wished that' he/couid leave it all. The desire to- be honest again would almost master him at times, but when he had about made up his mind,* the thought would come to him that there was no other place for him in life. Who would give employment to a man wearing such rags as he was obliged to wear, and on whose- face the deeds of the last two years had not failed to leave their marks? No. it was no use to try to be decent once more. He got enough from the spoils, to keep body and soul together, and though "that was about all, it was better than not being able to have even a crust and shelter.

The captain dressedwsvell—almost elegantly. He did not take an active., part in the affairs which liis men carried on in the night. He only superintended the business- it was by far the safer to him fell the maxi mum-share of the ill-goUtm-gains. Once Pickert had been honored and respected, but that was before he had iefl his home for the West. Not finding the gold which had lined him there, he had drifted back to an Eastern'city. and had fallen in with had company, and eventually, not-having a penny left; he had joined the captain’s band. Since that time he had tried to thrust all thoughts v ; pf his old home from his mind, but was impossible. Pickert hated the Small dingy room under the eaves which he was obliged to call home, and to-day he dreaded more than ever to return to it. Just now he could not help thinking of the home of his boyhood days and his mother who had loved and trusted him. He had left her with the assurance that some day he would return with gold enough to give her everything that heart could wish. And how he remembered her answer: “Never inind the gold, Jim. All I ask is that my boy shall be—a good and an honest man.” And he had told her that he would be all that she wished. And now

Pickert’s rough hand stole up to his eyes, and he murmured something under his breath. As he was passing a small church in the most disreputable part of‘the city—very near his lioma-he was arrested by tire sound of singing. Just now was a great revival reason, and noon services were being held In most of the churches. Some feeling which he could not throw off impelled-him to enter, and he sneaked into a seat by the door. He was too wiekfed to be here, he muttered to himself —in a minut.e he would be moving oa —but he would wait until they had finished singing. His eyes grew moist as lie listened to the hymn. How mapy times in his boyhood he had heard his mother sing “The Ninety and Nine.” Then he had been good and What would she say if she could see him now? It would break her heart. The tears fell now upon the ragged coat, and at that moment Piekeft registered a vow in his heart. “I'll be a man again- -it’s not too late.” Then swiftly the thought came, “What will the captain say if you back ’out?” Then as quickly thq answer, “It won’t make no difference what he says—or what he does. I’m dead tired of doing wrong.” He started to leave the church, but he stopped suddenly, petrified with amazement. The captain stood by the door! When he had recovered himself he walked up to him. “I’m thro.ugh doing your dirty work,” he whispered hoarsely in his ear. “You can do what you want to me—l don’t care—l’m through with this miserable kind qf a life.” “Let us walk along together a little ways,” was all the captain said in reply. Pickert was astounded. What had happened? All the captain’s bravado was gone, and his black eyes had softened considerably. f‘l watched you go in—l wanted to see what you was up to,” the captain said after a while, “and I followed. 1 ain’t been inside a church before for years. You heard that hymn. Pickert. She used to sing it when T was a boy —my m-mother, I mean, and it made me think of —when 1 was different. But I’ve been too long now in this business to turn over a new leaf, but It’s not too late for you to begin anew. You shall have a chance. Here’s enough tin to take you out, West When you get there go to work, and start over again, He had put Ills hand into his pocket and as he finished speaking he thrust something into Pickert’s hand. Be fore the latter had a chance to say a word, the captain turned on his heel and walked afray in the oposite dlrec don. For the first tftne In two years Pick ert raised his heaa and looked upward. “Thank Ood for- this chance to begin again.” be murmured reverently. “I'D 7W be the man that 1 orotnlued moth er be,' gag this time Pickert made good.—

NINE CHEESES.

'-** ItMfculbua Misadventure of A Clneo. fisted Clergyman. Anecdotes In which the mean and grasping man is outwitted or held up to ridicule are popular everywhere and always. Few ancient towns are without their historic or traditional instances of stinginess punished or sharp practice defeated. In one village of New England thers is Btill current Buch a tale concern* lng an unpopular parson of mors than a century ago. Although a learned man of im? presive manners, this clergyman was noted for undue reluctance t* ekpenij and readineess to acquire, He bad a habit of pleading povertj and hinting for gifts. ~ The parish, although with soma murmuring, had respondeed with fuel for his kitchen, hay for his horse, Thanksgiving turkeys for his table, and a “subscription cloak" jf black satin for his wife when her wedding manteau became shabby. The murmurs Increased when it was found that the parson turned an honest but overshrewd penny ,by selling, instead of using, many of these donations. But they were not loud enough to disturb his state* iy calm, and he went his way without condescending to notice them. At last, however, fortune played him trick for trick. One pleasant winter day he made a round of calls, ana at each house, when about to leave, he casually asked his hosteßs if she could let him have a little piece of cheese, as his wife happened to have none in the house, and unexp ted company had arrived. In each tase, the good housewife, instead of a little piece, generously presented him with a whole cheese, which lie graciously accepted. As he tun sd from the door-stone, at the do e of the last visit, .while the mother of the family and her brood of nine diildren stood politely gathered to watch him drive away, he carelessly pulled the wrong rein—the sleigh tipped sharply on a drift, and out from under the ministerial laprobe rolled nine large cheeses, which spun frlskly away in all directions-ever the icy crust. His hostess understood the situation at a glance. "Don't disturb yourself, pray, sir,” she urged, politely, aa he made a motion to descend. “It is quite unnecessary. The children will gather them up and none be overburdened, nor will there he any quarreling for the privilege. See, it is Just a cheese to a child.” So it was; and the embarrassed parson, unable to escape, was obliged to receive back his cheeses, w ith due thanks to each giggling volunteer, as they -came up In gleeful procession, one by one. Too well he knew that by the next day J the whole parish would be laughlug at his misadventure, although he could scarcely have guessed that tffe Joke would be recalled a hundred years after.

NO REASON FOR IT.

You Are Shown the Way Out. There can be no just reason why any reader of this will continue to suffer the tortures of an aching back, the annoyance of urinary disorders, the dangers of serious kidney ills when relief is so near at hand and the most positive proof given .that these ills can be cured. The following is convincing proof. Phillip Parcellis, N. Illinois St., Monticello, Ind., says: “I can recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills as being a most effective remedy for kidney- complaint. I used two boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills and the results were gratifying. Off and on during the pasl year, I was subject to attacks of backache and I also 'had trouble from toe frequent passages of the kidney secretions, After experimenting with various remedies and receiving no lasting benefit, I learned of Doan’s KidneyPills. Their use cured me and I have since recommended them to many other people, who in turn have used them with satisfactory results.” For sale by all dealers. BriceJjO cents.

“The Rosary."

' Despite the chief character of a Catholic priest, “The Rosary,” which will be seen at the Ellis Theatre soon, is non-sectarian. This is the play w.hich broke so many attendance records last 1 season, and thus far, -judging from the sizfcbf the audiences in other cities, the public hasn’t tired of it. Mingled with the darker colors of human tragedy is a vein of natural comedy evolved from the events which happen during the action of the play. The role of f Pathes. Brian Kelly is cleverly interpreted ny 41j\ Lynn Osborne. ' , 4 ~ The R-C-H cars are equipped with demountable rims and an extra rim is furnished without extra charge with each car.
