The winter may have been unduly mild, but it Is to be said for it that It was an easy one on the poor.

A collie failed to choose between two putative owners in court, lamely ending a most promising dog story.

Vincent Astor is giving an example to the rich young men who begin their careers by sowing wild oatß, in raising tame ones.

Her black velvet hat was crowned with gold and yellow feathers. A short while ago the widow of a wenknown man wore maize color on the occasion of her second marriage. The gown was charmeuse, the long trained skirt bordered with dark brown fur, and some beautiful antique Brussels lace trimmed the corsage and formed sash ends. To complete the harmony of the toilet the brown velvet hat exactly matched her sable stole. There is really no reason that the bridal toilet of widows should not show almost any color, except perhaps white and * very light cream, and, of course, black.

NEW IDEAS IN VANITY BOXES
Article Has Become Practically Indispensable, and Ma.ny Quaint Designs Are Offered. The vanity box has become so much a part of a woman’s outfit that the manufacturers are discovering many odd ways for her to carry 1L To take one’s powder puff and lip rouge from one’s handbag has become commonplace; now a woman can tuck these in her bracelet. One of the new kind has flexible links of gold wire, with the vanity box on top in the shape of an oval medallion with a handsome monogram. Or Bhe can wear It round her neck as a sautoir. Fascinating vanity pendants are shown of all styles and prices, from tiny ones of French Jewelry to diamond studded boxes no bigger than a child’s locket. Among the most popular of the vanity cases for the neck are those of colored Russian enamel on a linked chain to match. Again, one may carry a vanity box on the end of the parasol, or as the head of a big hatpin, disguised as a charm for her chatelaine, or even set in one of the big buttons that ornament her corsage draperies.

The new opera bags include a vanity box and those that do not may be supplied with them by small pockets sewed to the interior of them.
Boudoir Gowns.
There are boudoir gowns of allover embroidery over slips of silk, and some of these are trimmed with Irish lace which is always especially beautiful in combination with ( eyelet embroidery. Delicate colors are selected for lining such negligees, and in fact, bright hues of any sort are tabooed in lingerie or negligee wear ol distinction. Faint pink, the palest baby blue and equally pale lavender and yellow, are used for linings and ribbons in the French garments,, and only cheap ready-made underwear shows vivid blue and pink ribbons. Just now, there is a fad for black velvet ribbon in lingerie headings. It is rather amazing to see troußseau garments run with black and velvet and bearing black velvet rosettes and shower-bows.

He started his professional career in 1901 with the St. Paul team of the American association and played with the Saints for three seasons. In 1904 he returned to his native city as a big leaguer and a member of his home team, the Cincinnati Reds. For six years, or until he was traded to St Louis in 1910,
TO ACT FOR MUTUAL BENEFIT
President David Fultz Announces - Fending Amalgamation of Ball Players and “White Rata.” President David L. Fultz, of the Baseball Players’ Fraternity, announces that negotiations are now under way between the fraternity and the White Rats Actors’ union of America for an amalgamation between the two organizations for the purposes of “mutual support and protection,” and Fultz expects the arrangement will be consummated within a few,-weeks, he says. Wagner, of the Pittsburgh team, is announced as one of the latest additions to the ranks of the fraternity.
Eddie Grant of the Reds is playing the third comer in his very best form. According to the lineup given out by Manager Chance, the Yankees' shortstop position cannot be lifted without a derrick. Pitcher Jean Dubuc of the Tigers says: "Rondeau is,one of the greatest catchers to break into the league this year.” Peaches Graham has, after due deliberation, decided to sign a contract with Toronto again. They say McGraw bought Tesreau without even seeing him pitch a game and purely because he liked his size. Derrill Pratt, the young Brownie, in the opinion of many baseball experts, is the best second sacker in Ben Johnson’s organization. Pitcher Davenport of the San Antonio team 1b being heralded as the tallest man in baseball. He stands six feet seven and one-half Inches. The Cardinals now have a Wlngo and a Winger. Manager Clark Griffith believes that ’Tol" Pendleton, the Princeton university phenom, will keep his word and sign with the Senators. - “Dutch” Munch, whom Manager Griffith sent to the Syracuse club of the New York State league, says that he will come back next season. Steve Kane, former umpire in the American associhtlon, has signed to call balls and strikes in the Interstate league this season. Nick Cullup, the new southpaw of the Naps, says the Cubans are weak on curves. 'They can’t see the twisters,” says Nick, "but when you serve them a fast one or a slow one they’ll nail it a mile.” George Dauss, thp youngster secured by the Detroit Tigers from St. Paul, is one of the most promising young twtrlers on Jennings’ staff of 18. Bobby Vaughan, the old Princeton varsity captain, will play with St Paul the coming season. They , say that Denny Moeller, the young outfielder on Griffith’s squad, will give "Champ” Milan a good fight tor the baserunning honors.
CAREER OF MANAGER MILLER L HUGGINS
Miller Huggins, Leader of St. Louis Cardinals.
BALL AND BAT NOTES
Huggins was the star of the Reds’ infield. He went to St. Lotiis in 1910, and for the last three years has done the same brilliant work for the Cardinals that made him famous in Redland. Last winter he was appointed manager of the team to succeed Roger Bresnahan. Although it will be his first season as a manager, St Louis fans are confident he will produce a winner. When his baseball days are over Huggins will practice law.
HOW FORREST CADY WON JOB
Almost Unheard of In Boston Until Boosted by Leslie Nunamaker, Second Backstop. Forrest Cady, the twenty-four-year-old giant, butted into the limelight when Leslie Nunamaker, second catcher of the Red Sox, was injured in the throwing hand early last sear son, and has been right there or thereabouts ever since. Cady was almost unheard of in Boston, and even his team-mates did not know much about his ability. He and Nunamaker had been room-mates and “pals.” As Cady, who, despite his size, is very soft-spoken and evasive of the spotlight, went out to warm up, Nunamaker, sitting with bandaged hands
Forrest Cady.
on the side-lines, shouted this encouragement to the recruit, so that everybody heard it: "Keep up the reputation of the room, Cady!” t “Well, if they give me a chance In they’ll never miss YOU. w replied Cady, a bit peeved at the attention attracted to him, but still speaking as quietly as a bank clerk. Nunamaker sat on the bench the remainder of the Beason, appearing in less than a half dozen games, and Is now third catcher. Cady caught the most of the world's series and received a big salary increase. Which is Fate, also Opportunity. A similar turn may boost Nunamaker again. It’s the luck of the game.
Confidence In Thorpe.
Manager McGraw believes that with a .little experience Jim Thorpe will easily become one of the best bast runners the game ever saw.

All Fools’ Day.
Whenrfreakish April lifts the latch all wits and wags consider themselves free to vent their nonsense,upon the victims whom they would fool their tricks. The gay Parisian calls such "April flSh;” in bonnie Scotland en that day they make merry “hunting the gowk,” whilst in England and this country a man keeps a sharp lookout lest he be caught at a disadvantage by ‘ the joker who glories in his smartness if he only can make some one look ridiculous. But it is just as well not to be too smart. The boomerang hah. a wicked habit of coming back. Silly as All Fools’ day custom may seem to the solemn, it haß an ancient ancestry. Its origin is obscure, but somewhere .from the far-off times when those old Romans fe|t the lilt of the vernal equinox, and went on the spree accordingly, comes this rollick which still trills forth its merry ditty in our streets. Deeper still, the calm, contemplative Hindu, for some reason or other, from time immemorial has gone a-fooling on the first of April. It was probably from France, whence all things vivacious come, that Europe got the unruly itch for turning this day into a comedy of errors.
