The first notice of gypsies which occurs in European literature is from the pen of an Austrian monk about 1122. They are described by him in very uncomplimentary terms as "Ishmaeiites and brasiers'. who go peddling through the wide world, having neither house nor home, cheating the people with their tricks and deceiving man kind, but not openly." Having got a bad name, they seem to have been in the middle ages treated everywhere with systematic harshness. In England the most barbarous decrees against them were issued, even as late as the days of Henry VIII. and Elizabeth. London Globe. , Well Qualified.

PLAY I AS TOLD TO Hugh SltillerTon BY 8AM CRAWFORD. Outfielder Detroit Tigers, and Who Probably Is the Hardest Hitting Player In the Game Today and One of the Most Popular. I well remember the greatest play I ever saw, and there never has been anything to equal It either before or since. The play was made by Micky O'Connor, son. of Mrs. Bridget O'Connor, at Wahoo, Neb., when I wa about 14 years old. Knowing me to be at least 26 you can calculate the year for yourself. We had a team among ourselves then and Micky was our right fielder. I think our team was called tbe Crawford Stars or something like that, and our baseball field was in the lot alongside Mrs. O'Connor's boarding house. Mrs. O'Connor having the honor to be the mother of our right fielder, although at that time she did not appear to appreciate that honor. Micky was our best fly catcher. The right field fence of our field wasn't a fence at all, but the kitchen yard of Mrs. O'Connor's house, and I think the reason Micky always played right field was that he had to wait on the table at meal times while his mother did the cooking. I remember she lroke up a lot of games by coming to the kitchen door and yelled "Mickey" Just when the bases were full and no one out and the score 15 to 14 in our favor. We usually beat up Micky afterward for spoiling the games, but not when his ma was looking. Anyhow we had a game with the Little Potatoes after school one day There was great rivaly between the two teams as we lived on opposite sides of the track, and each game was preceded by a fight to decide which team got the outs, and usually followed by a fight to decide which won. I think we played more tie games than any team in history because every game broke up with a fight and . each claiming the victory. Neither had a pull with the commission. . Anyhow thiB was a great game to decide who owned the ball we played with. In the ninth Inning the score was 12 to 11 in our favor and they tied us up. We began watching Mrs. O'Connor's kitchen door for fear the game might be called at any moment. We scored two runs In tbe tenth Inning, and they filled up the bases and scored one run with twoout In their half. There was a big SAM CRAWFORD. boy named Clayton at bat and Just as he hit the ball Mrs. O'Connor opened the kitchen door and yelled "Micky! You Micky come here." The ball was going to right field' far over Micky's head. It looked as If he couldn't reach It I don't think, he ever saw It He heard his ma call and turned and sprinted for the kitchen door. Just as he reached the. path he saw the fly ball going along: and he reached " up, caught It and went ion. lto the .kitchen, on a .dead

run, catching the-ball with 6n nana. And . as he passed the stove he scooped up a big platter Of ham and eggs In his other hand and slid Into the dining room with the ball In one hand and the ham and eggs in the other, winning the game for us and the praise of his mother for bis promptness at the same time.

George Couch, also boasts Charle3 Goodrich and Floyd Sutliff, juBt plain boys but potential governors and presidents. Floyd was ascending a tall elm in the Goodrich dooryard, and Charles was teasing him. "Floyd!" he called to him, "Oh, Floyd! You're the d dest climber!"

Mrs. Goodrich was at the door in a Jiffy. "What was that you said!"" she exclaimed. But her dutiful son, never appearing to have heard her, continued, softly: "Floyd, oh. you Floyd! You're the dandiest climber!" Mrs. Goodrich shook her head doubtfully and went indoors. Cleveland Leader. THE OLD LIBERTY BELL History of This Relic of the Revolutionary Patriots. Overvigorous ringing of the old Liberty bell many years ago on the occasion of the celebration of tbe Declaration of Independence was what put the crack in it and forever destroyed its resonant tone. It was cast by Pass Sc, Stow in Philadelphia and hung in the belfry of the now historic Statehouse in lower Chestnut street early in June, 1753. It contains 2,080 pounds of metal. Near the top of the bell were cast the words "Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land Cnto All the Inhabitants Thereof.': Prophetic of its destiny, this gave it the name Liberty bell. When the British army marched on Philadelphia in 1777 the bell was taken down by patriots and carried off in the night to Allentown in order that it might not fall Into the hands of the enemy. In 1781 it was returned to the tower of the statehouse. For more than half a hundred years thereafter the bell was rung and honored on Independence day every year before the crack appeared in it. An effort was made to restore its tone by sawing the crack wider, but this proved of no avail. The bell was finally removed from the tower to a lower story of the statehouse and used only on extraordinary occasions. Subsequently It was rigged up on its original timbers in the vestibule. In 1893 it was exhibited at the Columbian exposition in Chicago. Experiments made in France show that by adding 4 cents' worth of peanut oil cake to a cow's winter JJeed her daily yield o.f milk can be increased by 10 to 15 cents.

Virginia hospitality is a byword. The old time country house, says Mrs. Roger A. Pryor in "My Day," xrta built of elastic material, capable ol sheltering any number of guests, manj of whom remained all summer. Indeed, this was expected of them. "My dear sir," said the genial master of Westover to a departing guest who had sought shelter from a rainstorm, "my dear sir, do stay and pa? us a visit" The guest pleaded business that for bade his compliance. "Well, well." said Major Drewry, M you can't pay us a visit come for two or three weeks at least." "Week ends' were unknown In Virginia, and equally out of the question an invitation limited by the host to prescribed days aDd hours. Some times a happy guest would Ignore time altogether and stay along from season to season. I cannot remember a par allel case to that of Isaac Watts, who, invited by Sir Thomas Abney to spend a night at Stoke Newlngton, accepted with great cheerfulness and stayed the rest of his life, nearly forty years, but I do remember that an invitation -for one night brought to a member of out family a pleasant couple who remained for years.
