POLICEMEN TIRED OF VISITING HER Because the police have been sent to her home eight times in the past two months on the complaint of neighbors, Mrs. Lulu Clements, colored, of Sheridan street, was fined $1 and costs in police court this morning. Mrs. Clements was arrested yesterday for intoxication. Mayor Zimmerman had said that he would release the woman on her promise to abstain, but when he was informed by the police that she had promised a half dozen times in as many weeks, he decided to fine her. The fine was stayed. William Shallenburg was fined $1 fend costs for Intoxication. He was arrested last night after he had been ordered home several times. Damaraland. Mistakes such as that which makes (Uganda of Busanda are frequent when the white man bases his geographical nomenclature on his understanding of the native. Sometimes they are amusing when one gets the explanation. 3Tor Instance. Damaraland should really be Daruaqualand. Just as NamaquaJand and Griqualand. for "qua" is the masculine plural, meaning "men." "Ra" Is the feminine dual. The explorer, with a sweep of his hand, questioned bis native guides as to the name f the country. But they thought he was pointing to two Dnma women In the distance and answered. "Daraara." So this portion of German Africa bears a name which signifies "land of two Da ma women." London Chronicle. To'd of a Tailor. A Viennese tailor was so fascinated ty his own figure in a suit ordered by a court functionary that he could not make up his mind to part with the garment He passed hours daily before the mirror admiring the elegant fit until his mind gave way to lunacy He finally bad to be consigned to an asylum, whither he was enticed, says a correspondent, on pretext of his being invited to attend a levee in his pourt dress.

START TUNING UP FQRJLGW RACES Speeders Drive Oven Course to Get on to Its Features. (National News Association) ELGIN", 111., Aug. 26. Auto race drivers entered in the two days' events on the Klgin road race course, beginning Friday, were out on the track early today, trying out with their racers and learning the track inch by inch. Ralph De Palma, winner of last year's Klgin trophy and freefor-all purse, hung up a track record for the practice runs, when he made the 8s& miles around the track in 7 minutes and 43 seconds. The record was made in freshly laid oil and at the risk of wrecking the racing car and endangering the drivers. DePalma's teammates, Pullen and Wishart, tried out their Mercer cars, but did not attempt any records. Joe Dawson tried out his Marmon in slow runs. Hundreds of visitors were in Elgin today and the crowds at this year's races are expected to eclipse those of any previous year. AMES FALLS DOWN; REDSJRE BEATEN Giant Castoff Would Have Won Except for His Fatal Wobble NEW YORK, Aug. 26. Brutally snatched away at the last moment what looked like a sure victory for Cincinnati yesterday afternoon, was turned into a sad defeat through the sudden weakening of Leon Ames. The veteran curve-baller for eight exciting innings had forced the champions to nibble their fodder from his capacious mitt whether they liked it or not. Lost His Own Game. Ames lost his own game by a poor defensive play in the ninth after winning it with a clean hit in the third round and scoring the only run made by the Reds. The score: : Cincinnati 0010000 01 New York 00000000 22 Two base hits Tinker Burns. Three base hit Murray. Left on bases Cincinnati 5; New York, 9. Double play Tinker to Egan.

Umpires O'Day and Emslie. A PANKHURST PLEA FOR PEACE IGNORED (National News Association) LONDON, Aug. 26 Disregarding the plea of Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst for a recess in the campaign of violence long waged by the Women's Social and Political Union, militant suffragettes continued their depredations today. Members of the arson squad burned a $20,000 mansion at Finchley, a northern suburb of this city, leaving placards about the ruins so that there would be no doubt as to the identity of the perpetrators. It is believed that the counsels of Mrs. Pankhurst, who is now in France, will be disregarded by the young hotheaded women, who demand a continuation of violation. Painting Scenery. The huge paintings required as scenes for theaters are now, according to an article in the Scientific American, painted with the canvas lying flat on the floor, instead of as formerly, in an upright position. In this way the work can be done much more rapidly. The colors used are In powdered form, a barrel to each color. Public employment bureaus in Sweden are sustained by the government and Consul Douglas Jenkins says their services are all free of charge.

PRESBYTERIANS IN

FIRST PLACE Defeat St. Mary's Team in Exciting Sunday School League Race. By defeating St. Mary's yesterday afternoon, 9 to 3, the Presbyterians placed themselves in the lead of the post 6eason games for the championship of the Sunday school league. Hafner played his usual brilliant game, pitching good enough ball to win, and hitting consistently, but the fast snappy ball put up by the Presbyterians was too much for his teammates. In the field, he had twelve strikeouts to his credit, and at bat made two three-base hits. Harry Fitzgibbons also did some clever work at short stop. Webb Shows Class. For the Presbyterians Webb pitched his best game of the season, striking out eight of his opponents. Tomorrow afternoon the Specials and St. Mary's play, and Friday afternoon the last game will be between the Specials and the Presbyterians. Last week the Presbyterians defeated the Specials by an overwhelming score, and expect to have no difficulty in duplicating the trick. This would give them the championship. The batteries yesterday afternoon: Presbyterians, Webb and Keys. St. Mary's, Hafner and Juerling. J HOT LINERS I OFF THE BAT ! Cleveland's victory over the New York Yankees yesterday" was the twelfth this season. The Naps did not gain in their pennant race though, for the Athletics shut out the Browns. Pitcher McConnell, of the Yankees, broke a finger in the Cleveland game and will not be able to pitch for several weeks. It wasn't until the ninth inning that the Giants clinched a victory over the Cincinnati Reds at the Polo grounds, Monday. In consequence of the defeat of the Pirates and the victory of the Cubs, both are now tied for third place in the National League, each club having a percentage of .534. The games all along the line in the National League were close yesterday, about the easiest victory being that of the Phillies over the Cardinals. Word from Chicago says that a new baseball league is being organized to fight the Federal League. Manager Callahan, of the Chicago White Sox, has been indefinitely suspended for arguing with Umpire McGreevy during Saturday's game. The White Sox have bought Pitcher Faber, of the Des Moines (Ja.) club. WAS MESSENGER BOY; NOW FAMOUS JOCKEY JOHNNY McTAGGART. NEW YORK, Aug. 26 From messenger boy to the top rung of the racing ladder in less than a year is the phenomenal record of "Little Johnny" McTagart, without doubt the very best American jockey wearing the silks in this country. "The Kid," as Johnny is called at Saratoga and other tracks on the Eastern circuit, is a brother of Jockey Tommy McTaggart. This time last year he was running his little legs off, delivering messages for the telegraph company in New York, He was given his first real chance at the recent Belmont Park meeting when he piloted August Belmont's ntry, "Mission." He has developed so rapidly that he considers nothing less than three wins from four mounts a good day's work. McTaggart is only seventeen years old and can ride at a little less than ninety pounds. He is under contract to Hugh Penny, a former star rider of the West

Barton Hepburn, president of the Chase National bank, of New York, and chairman of the currency commission of the American Bankers' association, who made a strong speech before a conference of banking and clearing house delegates in Chicago, in which he opposed the Owen-Glass currency bill cow pending before congress. Mr. Hepburn strongly favored the adoption of a central reserve bank plan. TRANSFER PRIEST Father Bauer Goes to Snake Run, Ind. Father Bauer, for two years assistant rector of St. Andrew's church, has been transferred to Snake Run, Ind., where he will have complete charge of the Catholic church. He is succeeded here by the Rev. Charles Cabey, who comes to this city from the Church of the Immaculate Conception at Greensburg, where he has been rector for four years. The Rev. Cabey is a young man, having been ordained a priest four years ago. He received his early training and preparation for the priesthood at St. Meinrad's Seminary, Spencer county, Indiana. MADE A GOOD GUESS. He Had No Thermometer to Tell Him the Temperature. It often happens on sledge journeys among the arctic Ice that the thermometers are broken. In that case the party finds Itself without any means of determining the temperature. But Roald Amundsen, the discoverer of the south pole, says that if the explorer accustoms himself to guess the temperature it is possible to estimate the mean temperature for a month with a fair degree of accuracy. This fact he ! proved by means of a guessing competition during the winter that his party spent in camp on the great Ice barrier. As each man came in In the morning he gave his opinion of the temperature outside, and each guess was entered in l a book. At the end of the month I went over the figures, and the man who had guessed correctly the greatest number of times won the prize a few cigars. Besides giving practice In estimating degrees of cold. It was a very good diversion with which to begin the day. When one day is almost exactly like another the first hour of the morning is likely to be a little sour. The competition engaged every one's attention pleasantly. Each man's entrance was awaited with excitement, and one man was not permitted to make his guess in the bearing of the man who followed him. Therefor they had to speak as they came In. our by one. "Now, Stubberud. I would say. "what's the temperature today?" Stubberud had his own way of calculating, which I never succeeded in understanding. One day. for instance, be looked about him and studied the various faces. "It isn't warm today," be said at last, with a great deal of conviction. I could Immediately encourage him with the assurance that he had guessed correctly. It waa GZi degrees F.! The monthly results were very Interesting. So far as I can remember, the best performance in any month was eight approximately correct guesses. A man might keep remarkably close to the actual temperature for a long time and then suddenly one day make an error of 25 degrees. The winner's mean temperature agreed within a few tenths of a degree with the actual mean .temperature of the month, and the mean of all the competitors mean temperature gave a result that was almost exactly correct So if we had been so unlucky as to lose all our thermometers we should not have been entirely at a loss.
