Greenfield Man Wants to Succeed Jim Watson.
Indianapolis, Oct. 4. Will A. Hough,
of Greenfield, while here, announced that he is a candidate to the finish for
Jim Watson's shoes.
"I have been so busy adjusting some
business affairs that I have not had the time yet to pull off my coat and get into the congressional contest," he said, "but that must not be assumed
to signify that I am a noncombatant
I expect to begin at an early date to beat the bushes. I shall go into every county in the district in the inter

The Superstition Attached to It Is by No Means Modern. It is usually stated that the superstitious objection to sitting thirteen at a table in Christian countries was based on the fact of the last supper, when Christ and his twelve disciples eat down to ent together immediately before the Saviour was seized by his enemies. But in the Norse mythology.
which is supposed to antedate the introduction of Christianity among the
uorthmen, we find the superstition re
ferred to the fact that at a banquet of
the gods Loki. the spirit of mischief,
intruded himself, making thirteen at
the table, wherefore there was a fight, and Baldour, a young hero especially
loved by all the gods, was killed. For
the fact is the objection to this number seems to have existed even beforo
Christianity. Among the Turks the
number is so disliked and feared that it Is never even named. With the Aztecs, the aborigines of Mexico, it was
believed to have magic power, and
like fancy has been found In o'her Indian tribes. Among the ignorant
blacks of the south the fear of this
number In any connection is actually
absurd, but whether they have borrowed this Idea from their Imperfect knowledge of Christianity or whether it is a survival of the Voodoo worship
of their ancestors it Is impossible to say, for the superstition has a strong hold everywhere, even among those who should know better than to be swayed by it. In Italy it is never used
in making up the numbers of the fa
vorlte lotteries, and in Paris it is omit
ter in numbering the houses on the
streets. Housekeeper.
In a collection of Egyptian papyri Prof. Jules Nicole is reported to have
found among some Greek texts an an
cient Latin guide through Rome. As
it contained an inventory of sculpture
and indicates the locality where each
piece was located, as well as describes
each, it may prove of importance in
supplying us with data for the attrl
bution of as yet nameless statues.

THE BASEBALL RESULTS
NATIONAL LEAGUE STANDING.
(By Tort) A steady downpour of rain put to
flight the game scheduled Thursday af
ternoon between the Richmond and Indianapolis A. B. C.'s. Indications
were, had the day been as fair as Wednesday, that a large crowd would have seen these two fast teams play. The
eather man's action In turning on the
faucet, was a severe blow to the players' purses.
North Vernon Sunday. As the theatrical people say, Athletic
park will be "dark" today and Saturday. On Sunday the fast North Vernon team comes here with about four hundred North Vernon rooters. The
North Vernon team is, like the Quakers, composed entirely of fast minor league players recruited from the Central and Three-I. leagues. North Ver
non fans claim that they have the fast
est independent team in the state at
present writing and are confident of their pets taking the locals.
Agreement Signed. Quite a number of Richmond busi
ness men have signed an agreement to make next Tuesday afternoon between the hours of 3 and 5:30 o'clock a half holiday so that their employees and, incidentally, themselves can see the game between Richmond and the fam
ous Cincinnati Reds at Athletic park.
All the towns in the vicinity of Richmond have been billed for this game and the indications are that there will
be several hundred out of town root
ers at the park. Either Ewing. Campbell or O'Neil will pitch for the Reds in
this game. Campbell and O'Neil are two Red recruits who have made excellent records the two weeks they have
been playing with Cincinnati and are sure to be with the Reds next season.
O'Neil Is trying for a place in the outfield. He was formerly a member of the St. Louis National's pitching staff.
Fink Has Arrived. Outfielder Fink, of the Canton Cen
tral league team, joined the locals
Wednesday and will play in center field. Fink is a hard hitter and a clever fielder and will more than fill the gap left by the desertion of Stokes Weaver. Fink is not much larger than Tommy Ritter.

Incident to the Earlham-Wabash game on Saturday, the following Crawfordsville diespatch will be of interest: The first hard luck stories are now ripe at the Wabash college foot ball camp, and justly so. as quite a number of the men are suffering from in
juries which keep them from rounding
into perfect physical condition, and still others are laid up to such an ex
tent that they find it impossible even ' to go through signal practice. The latest addition to the rospital list is "Doc" Garver, the line plunging back, who gave such a good account of himself on last year's eleven. He has a sprained ankle which will not only keep him out of the game against Earlham next Saturday, but will likely keep him out of the big game a week later with Purdue university. Colbert, the star freshman half back from Wabash, Ind., will most likely be used next Saturday and Garver's loss will not be felt so much, but the rub comes in on account of the fact that Colbert is not eligible to compete against the old gold and black because he is a freshman. Unless Garver gets back into shape, which is extremely unlikely, Coach Cayou will be in a tight place. The only other substitute back who is eligible under the "Big Nine" rule is Stiers. WTith Stiers in one of the half
back positions there would not be another available substitute to use in case of an injury. Short of Substitutes. Out of a squad of about thity men only about fifteen are eligible for the Purdue struggle. This means that the "Big Chief" will be decidedly up against it in case any of the regulars are injured severely between now and the time for the big battle. Other members of the team are suffering with injuries which are interfering with their playing, among this number being Jack Hargrave, the speedy little quarter back, who is suffering from a wrenched knee; Colbert, with a severe "Charley horse"; Sohl, with a bruised chest; Burns with a sprained shoulder; Dobbins, with a
wrencnea DacK, ana Komine, witn a bad ankle.

The Malleable girl Is net careless, but then accidents will happen. She is not worried, however, for she knows that twice the amount of water will not crack the top of her range, because It is thoroughly annealed stove plate. A cake of ice can be placed on it while the top is red-hot without in any wise affect
ing the casting. Should any of this water run down onto
the oven, it will not firecrack as cast iron would under similar conditions. Should an accident of a simi

Chicago, Oct. 4. The National Base
ball commission will meet in Chicago
next Sunday and complete preparations for the world's series to be played be
tween the Chicago Cubs and the De
troit American league team. Presi
dents Johnson and Puliam favor the
suggestion to change the division of the gate receipts the winner to get GO
per cent and the loser 40.
The division in former series has
been 75 and 25 per cent. This matter will come up for final settlement at the
meeting unless the players of either
club object.
It has been decided to open the series
on next Wednesday instead of Tuesday
as originally planned. This change is made in order to give the Detroit management time to prepare suitable arrangements for the crowds. The teams will play in Chicago on Wednesday and Thursday, in Detroit Friday and Saturday, and if the remaining games are necessary they will be played in Chicago on Sunday and Monday.

It is said that every man has soma little trick or other which he perform unconsciously, especially when he ?s thinking. The sovereigns of Europe have all their own peculiar habits. For example. King Edward has a way of passing his finger backward and forward under his chin; the German emperor twirls his mustache with energy, while the King of Italy strokes his gently and affectionately; the Emperor of Austria combs out his whiskers, and the czar frequently passes his hand over the top of his head. Lastly ex-President Loubet has a trick o shrugging his right shoulder, and at the same time smoothing the front ot his coat with his right hand. Tit-bits.

Queer Sympathy. Some years ago, writes one corre spondent. my little daughter, aged five, was out walking in a country lane with her nurse. She saw hobbling painfully toward her a barefooted, bent old woman clothed in rags and dirt. On her back was slung a heavy bundle of sticks which she had evidently been collecting. My little daughter stopped short on seeing this picture of misery, evidently struck with pity. Then, with both arms outstretched, she ran toward her, her cnrls dancing in the wind and her eyes aglow with tenderness, crying: "Oh, you poor, dear old lady; I do wish you was dead: Yon would be so much happier!"

AMERICAN JiAGUE RACE
Detroit at St. Louis and Philadelphia at Washington.
Both Detroit and Philadelphia won Thursday leaving the American league situation very much as it was at the
end of Tuesday's games. The Tigers are traveling to St. Louis where they hook up with the Browns, one game being scheduled for Saturday and two
for Sunday.
Philadelphia has four games to play with Washington. One of these
Washington games is a postponed one,
but it is necessary for the Athletics to
play and win it if they want to cap ture the pennant.
Figuring that the Athletics will take the series, Jennings's men must take
two out of the three games with St Louis.
A beautiful picture of life still stood in the picture dealer's window which attracted crowds of people.
