The auto Is making this a happier 'world —except for pedestrian*. Common sense among,the common people is essential to a republic. However, as for hobble skirted 'woman, how can she expect to “win In a walk?" That Boston girl who has never been kissed is probably her own explanation. Riceless weddings are the proper caper. This makes it more enjoyable to get married. The world Is divided Into two classes —those who have automobiles and those who wish them. Says an exchange: “Moon songs are still popular." Yes, they’re a light subject for the composers. 4- - - - ■ ■■ It Is a queer commentary on these days of peace that famous battleships need protection from assaults. New Haven is to have a |2,000,000 postofflce, suggesting that Yale students must be great letter writers. Whatever else may be said, it must be admitted that the new nickel has more than 5 cents’ worth of art on it. When a man drinks too much he is in a state ot “psychic consciousness," says a scientist Why not say plain "soused." In the new Japanese cabinet the minister of agriculture is Oombel Yamamoto. It sounds like a new kind of tomato soup. Our college athletes must forego their summer visits to Europe. Shipping live cattle from the port'of Boston is prohibited. An eastern actress who admitted that she got married “just to kill time” now finds that getting a divorce also helps to kill time. When he goes to the auto show the mere pedestrian must feel ashamed of himself and seriously question his right to live. Mother Hubbard, who went to the cupboard, found things in the same condition as the treasury of a Central American republic after a new revolution. Cavalieri, denying a rumor that she has wed, says that husbands are a joke. Probably they are; and in Cavalleri’s case, an expensive joke—for the husbands. A German scientist says that tight? ening one's belt is the best way to alleviate hanger. Evidently he has had no experience with a slim waisted chorus girl in a Broadway case. A humane legislature in New York has introduced a bill providing for an official handshaker for the governor. Politicians see possibilities in this measure if it becomes a success. Persons who live in a flat can sympathise with the East St Louis man who is suing his wife for divorce because she insisted on playing the piano until 2 o’clock in the morning. An occupational census of Chicago would show that there has been no great falling off in the number of burglars, pickpockets, and holdup men as compared with previous estimates. The coal man likes winter for the business he gets and is in love with summer for the rest he enjoys. It is reported from Stockholm that a Swedish soldier shot in the head has recovered and is working with half a brain. At that, he’s probably blessed with lots more than many people. A returned traveler says he found a model kind of home life in the heart of the Desert of Sahara. Perhaps that 'was the reason it was model, having no chance for its members to make It otherwise. "A gown that a woman cannot get Into without assistance is a crime," says a modiste. Why this rudimentary idea has so long eluded the feminine mind few husbands will be able to explain. Not all the wild marksmen are found In the woods during the hunting season. A shooting gallery attendant in Chicago was killed the other day, a patron of tbs place making the mistake. Now a Georgia woman sues for divorce because a kiss a year is not enough. And there was that other one who said she had never been kissed at all What is the right proportion, anyhow? A Boston woman has aroused her sex by proposing that bachelor maids be taxed |5 a year. The justice of the proposition, many of them seem to think, hangs upon the point of whether their single blessedness la a luxury m s> " "*'* 1
TURN LEON AMES INTO SPITBALL ARTIST
Probably the most Important move made by McGr&w since the training season began is his decision to turn Leon Ameß into a spitball pitcher. If Ames can develop a good spitter to slice in between bis speed and famous curve ball he ought to be a very valuable man. He is working at it daily, and Wilbert Robinson !s so pleased with his progress that he wants to confine himßelf entirely to the spitter except for an occasional change in pace. This new move by McGraw is interesting, in view of the fact that until Bogs Raymond joined the Giants “Me” had always been opposed to the spitter and never permitted his
JACK RYAN WITH GREEN BAY
Former Bemi-Pro Pitcher Gets Chance With Wisconsin Team—Has Wonderful Curve. (By DICK M’BRIDE.)

I. league. Bobby

twirlers to use It. The success of Te»reau, who was changed into a spitter overnight, did much to influence the Giant manager in training other pitchers in that direction. It has been a theory in baseball that the spitball was destructive to the pitching arm, and this was confirmed by the quick decline of Jack Chesbro, the pioneer. The fact that Ed Walsh has used nothing but the spitter for years, however, and is as strong as ever, has thrown a new light on the subject. Ames has just about passed the zenith of his career, and the acquisition of a spitter certainly could not do him any serious damage. It saved Tom Hughes.
McNichols, owner of the Chicago West Ends, with the result he wore a West End uniform in 1910. He played semi-pro ball until thls year. There Is no reason why this youngster cannot make good in the minors, as he has a good arm, speed and a wonderful curve ball. He had several chances to sign with the minor leagues in the last two years, but thought he hadn’t enough experience. This year he says he is ready.
“KULL THE UMPIRE!”—WHY?
Prof. J. E. Boodln of Kansas Says It Is Natural Result of Fusion of Several Minds.
"When the crowd in the bleachers shout “Kill the umpire,” It Is only the natural result of a fusion of minds, according to Prof. J. E. Boodin of the University of Kansas, who addressed the Western Philosophical association at Northwestern university. “The demand for the life of the umpire is brought about by a peculiar condition,” said Professor Boodin. “He makes a decision which does not appeal to some spectator. That spectator so Informs his neighbor, and gradually the entire crowd in the stand Is brought to think that the umpire should not be allowed to live. The mind of a crowd generally thinks in the same channel as an individual. Under certain conditions a hundred people will think the same as a single person. In witnessing an unusual oocurrence the crowd will think the same as the Individual.”

JOE JACKSON FOOLS COOMBS
Philadelphia Pitcher Thought He Had Cleveland Player’s Number, but Has Rude Awakening. George Mullln once,brought trouble upon himself by that now notorious interview In which he declared that he had discovered Joe Jackson’s weakness, and In which he predicted that Joe would hit around the .240 mark when other pitchers became wise. Though George has never whimpered, he has undoubtedly often regretted that be gave that interview. He made an enemy- of Jackson —an enemy who had the power to secure retribution. Since ttfat memorable Interview Joe Jackson’s batting average against Mullin has been about .700. “Jack” Coombs, like MuHin,'once thought he, too, had discovered Jackson’s weakness. It was in the fall of 1910. It also was Jackson’s first appearance against Coombs. “Jack" was in wonderful form that season. The first time up Coombs worked Industriously to solve Joe’s system. He shot a wide, high, fast one on the outside. Joe fouled into left field. He ehot a high fast one on the inside. Joe fouled into right. He shot a low curve. Joe swung and missed. Coombs smiled the smile which comes with the satisfaction of a secret discovered and a task well done. He went to the bench, sat near hiß boss and declared: "Connie, I’ve got that fellow’s number.” “Don’t be too sure,” was Connie’s reply. In the natural course of events the same scene was set a few innings later. Coombs mapped out the same program and secured the same results antil the moment came for that third strike. The ball was just about the Bame spot that it had been when Joe swung and missed before. But he

didn’t miBB this time. Coombs’ jaw fell, and no smile adorned his countenance as he saw the ball sailing high against the screen in right center. There was no smile which comes with the satisfaction of a secret discovered and a task well done when he went to the bench this time. In fact, he avoided the manager. But Connie refused to be Ignored. He leaned over. “You must have been mistaken, John,” he said. That was all. It was enough.
Among the. Players
Manager Miller Huggins does not believe that Chase, a left-hander, can make a success at the midway station. Baumgardner, Wellman, Hamilton, Allison and Mitchell have been picked by Manager Stovall as the regular twirlers for his staff. Frank Chance has not, forgotten his lauding proclivities. Now, he says Ed Sweeney is a better catcher than any other In the game. The veteran Parke Wilson has a son playing with St. Mary’s college In California who is /aid to be a coming •tar. He plays the outfield. A 1 Demaree is getting the lion’s share of the press stuff this spring. They say be is making the best showing of any of McGraw’s recruits. Birdie Cree, the Yankees’ star little center fielder, is hitting the pellet unmercifully. Birdie says he is going to have a great season with the club. Napoleon Lajole, the veteran second sacker of the Naps, Is feeling years younger than ever before. The big Frenchman expects to have a great season. They say that Jimmy Johnston has earned himself a regular berth in th« outfield with the White Sox. Jimmy is pretty speedy on the paths and Is a good sticker. Griffith expects great things of Clyde Milan, whose daring exploits earned for him the title of "the terror of the base lines." He plMsiwd eightynine sacks last season.

Pensions are not the only things commanded and forgotten. An in* quißitve member of the British house of commons was struck one day by the presence of a policeman in one of the lobbies. He wondered why this particular lobby should always have a guardian strolling up and down and made inquiries. The records of the house were searched and it was found that fifty years previously, when the lobby was being decorated, a policeman had been stationed there to keep members from soiling their clothes. The order never having been countermanded, the constable had kept his. beat for half a century.
