Jack Mclnnis of the Philadelphia Athletics is not old enough to vote, but he is the best substitute iniielder in the country. "Stuffy," as his team mates ca.l him, first saw the light of flny In Gloucester, Mass., in October. 1800. He joined the Athletics in the Bpring of 1009, having made a name for himself nB a member of the Gloucester high school nine and the Haverhill New England league team.

In tho ninth inning Crane of Wheeling drove the hall into the out field, and the terrier chased the ball, grabbing it in his mouth and scamper ing away from the outfielders, hot in pursuit.

To obtain the best results she must study the nrt both 'n theory and in nrac tii c. A cook who can make good saures Is never at u loss lu ens'-' of emerg'-ncy, for n delicate wincf ram ble of I'tiiverting a plain clHh of wither fish, llf-h or fowl Into a rlnlniy i''itr and a plainly cooked vegetable Into o high class entremets do legume. In many households the preparation of such a "simple" sauce as melted bnttcr is left to an ordinary maid, and the result is often a compound which more closely resembles underdone paste than sauce blanche. It is the little details of the kitchen of which tho sauco in question is a good exam plewhich bring discredit or the re verse on both mistress and cook. When properly made melted butter is one of the most useful sauces prepared in a modern kitchen, owing to the variety of which it is capable. The failure In making it is usually duo to the fact that an entirely wrong method is adopted, which admits of insufficient cooking of tho flour and a too scanty supply of butter. HoHandaise Sauce. There is no sauce which gives a more decided piquancy to a dish than well made uollandaise. There are several ways of preparing it, but to make hol landaise as it should be the process is not a very easy one. The following is a good recipe: Reduce two tablespoon fuls of vinegar in a saucepan with a pinch of salt and pepper until only one teaspoonful remains; draw the pan to tho side of the stove, where the heat is only very moderate, and pour in two tablespoonfuls of cold water and the yolks of two eggs (taking care that do portion of the jvyjilte adheres to fhemV and stir with "a wooden spoon, watching the eggs closely, and direct ly they show signs of thickening take the pan at onco from tho stove and stir In quickly ?nojKejX.JresJ butter. Wh'en it has quite melted pfacethe"parf again on the stove, but only for a few seconcls, Jo reheat .the mixture, then take it off nnd" add another o"unce of butter, and when it is worked in re beat as before and continue in the same way until four ounces of butter havo been amalgamated with the yolks of the eggs. After adding the second and third portion of butter pour in a dessertspoonful of cold water, and when the last ounce of butter has been stirred In add another dessertspoonful of water. So doing will make the sauce less liable to curdle, when ready the sauce should be of the same consistency as a thick mayonnaise. Melted Butter. To make melted butter sauce put into a saucepan two ounces of butter, and when it has melted add by de grees one ounce of llour and stir with a wooden spoon until a smooth paste is formed, taking caro that the rous acquires no color. Pour in by degree half a pint of warm milk or milk and water, working the mixture quickly all the time with the spoon. Place the pan on a hot part of the stove, so that tho sauco may boil up. and continue to stir until it is thick and creamy; then add salt and pepper and let it simmer for ten minutes. Pour it through a fine strainer into a hot sauce boat and Just before serving add a small piece of fresh butter, stirring It lightly Into the sauco. In the event of the sauce being required for fish, fish broth which has been flavored with vegetables and herbs may be used with advantage in placo of the milk, but in this case a tablcspoonfu) or two of cream should be added the last thing. Bearnaise Sauce. Bearnaise sauce, which is usually much appreciated when served with a filet de boeuf, or veal cutlets, is merely bollandaise with a teaspoonful of finely chopped tarragon, a small quantity of chervil and a few drops of tarragon vinegar added tho last thing before being served. It is well to note that a delicate sauce of tho above description would be likely to curdle if poured Into n tureen which has been made very hot Gherkin Sauce, Gherkin sauce, which is often pre ferred, when a sauce of this descrip tion is required, to caper sauce, may be made by adding some chopped gher kins to some good white sauce which has been sharpened with a few drops of the pickle in which the gherkins were preserved and a small quantity of tarragon vinegar. Anchovy Sauce. For a rich anchovy sauco make half a pint of melted butter and add half an ounco of fresh butter which has been worked up with two teaspoonfuls of essenco of anchovy and stir in three or four drops of carmlno to Improve tho color, or, If preferred, fish stock may bo used Instead of milk. Maltre d'Hotel Sauce, Maltro d'hotel sauco can be quickly made In tho same way as anchovy sauce by substituting ono ounco 'of maltro d'hotel butter for tho anchovy butter, but for this milk without wa ter should be used for the white sauce. HANDMADE RLOUSES. They Are Lace Trimmed and Deftly Embroidered. mPOETHS BLOUSES. Handmade decorations are a feature of many of the new Imported blouses. Those pictured here represent the lat- est and most artistic efforts of a great Parisian modiste. Ono of tho blouses is of linen lu drawn thread work, the entire surface of the blouse having the threads drawn. It is heavily braided both on revers and cuffs. Tho vest and cofl'ar are of embroidered Jawn. - The other blouse, "which is for dinner or theater wear, is of blue and black printed material. It is adorned with circular braided ornaments "app'llqued upon the fabric. Tho neck and elbow sleeves are finished with point d'esprit. Waists intended for wear with the tailor made are elegant in their sim plicity. They are made of the flimsiest gauzes and so deftly embroidered that they resemble more a fine work of art than merely a blouso to bo crushed and hidden by tne coat ,-tt-- One of the fads of tho"'moment is to wear the transparent blouse over a handsome Irish crochet blouso, but when thLs idea is successfully carried out tho sheerest of marquisette or chiffon must be used in the overwaist. The real chic of the tout ensemble Is the effect of the heavy laco through the fine mesh of tho top waist Puritan simplicity and Puritan styles are very fashionable at this hour. Sim ple lines are invariably becoming. The slim figure is given a graceful line and the stout one is Improved. Favorite Fiction. "Yes, Sir; I Called You at 0 O'clock, Sharp."

CUMMINGS Copyright by American Press Asso ciation. 19U. This is a story of Kentucky nearly a century ugo. Ono day a young man dressed not In tho buckskin or linsey woolsey of tho times, but in a costume that smacked rather of Europo than Amer ica, alighted from tho coach at a tav ern and called for supper ami a room. It was at the end of the stage route, nnd the young man was obliged to j proceed to his homo farther south on horseback. Tills was the reason for his remaining overnight There was not much amusement to he found In such a place, und aft l1 supper, hear ing tho strains of a violin in a saloon across the way, ho concluded to walk over and see what was going on. At one end of the room was a bar, and at the other was tbs flddler, who, sit ting on a platform of hoards set on barrels, was plnyinif "The Arkansaw Traveler." Thero vrh n story con nected with tho music, which the fid dler told, every now and agalu stop ping to go on with tbo tune. At ta bles scattered here oud there were men, most of thorn in hunting cos tumes, playing ciiriN. At tho entrance of a young man in civilized dress ever; one looked up. Tho newcomer, biiru; embarrassed, was about to rcrreac when ono of tho cni-d players called out: "Don't go, younkor. Yo'ro the pur tiofit thing we've "ever seen in these parts. Let's havo a look at them clothes." "Those clothes," said tho stranger, "came from a long way off. As soon ns I gel settled at homo I'll probably go In for the costume of tho country." "Whnr did yo' come from, anyway?" "!'vi been to Germany." "Oerinnny!" exclaimed every ono in tho room. They had never before heard of any one who talked pure American corning from across tho At lantic. 'Wliut war yo' doin' tbnr?-' asked lil ... "Dirt you go from hyar?" "Yos. My father !!ves !n tho blue grast region. My nume is Morgan." "All right, sonny. If yo' hail from old Kalmuck yo'ro all right, no mat ter what kind of a rig yo' got on. My name's speors. step up anu nave snmep'nKS3'32SS5:7tw;J' ' "1 don't drink nnythlng except beer. I reckon I can't get that here." "Boor! No. Wo don't drink nothln' but pure Kalmuck corn juice down hyar. Step up and have some o' that." "Thank you; I dou't drink whisky." "Don't know how, eh? Well, we'll teach yo'." "You can't teach mo, for I won't learn." Tho speaker reached down between his shoulder blades and drew forth a bowlo knife a foot long and began to poke tho young man with its point to ward tho bar. Several of the others protested that tbo young man should not bo forced to drink what he didn't wish to drink. Others maintained that if there was to be a fight ho Bhould bo furnished with arms to defend himself. "is it drink or fight?" usked tho man with t he knife. "It isn't drink," said the other reso lutely. "Well, then, it's fight What wcepons do you like?" "I'd as soon have a knife like tho one you're flourishing as anything. But I don't wish to fight. I'd much prefer to go over to tho tavern and let you drink all the whisky you like." "Glvo him a bowle!" cried his enemy. A man lu tho crowd handed Morgan a knife of the exact length of that of his antagonist, and he had no sooner got his fingers about its handle than his enemy made a dash for him with his knife raised high in tho air. The youngster caught it on his own knife, making a gash in his enemy's hand from which dripped tho red blood. Spvers unlocked his knife and made an under pass. Again tho weapon was caught, and a fresh stream ran from Its owuer's hand Then followed a series of passes by Speers, Morgan standing solely on the defensive. A dozen times he could have punctured his enemy in any part of the body he chose, but h refrained. The interest lu tho fight among the onlookers was intense. Tho skill of Morgan won a number to his side, who kept calling, "Now's yo chance, young un!" "Let drlvo!" "Finish hlmt" But Morgan contented himself with block ing his enemy's thrusts. Finally Mor gan called to tho crowd.: "Do you think this has gone on long enough?" "Yes. Finish It up." "All right." Every one expected to see him plnngo his knifo into Speers' body, but instead of that he wedged his own blado in between Speers' fingers and the hilt of his knife, gavo his own bowlo a fling, and Sneers' weapon went up to the ceiling and. falling, stood up in tho Coor on its point All gathered around tho victor and Hrero eager to hear where ho had learn ed to handle a knlfo with such pro ficiency. He told them that tbreo years before his father had sent him to a German university. Ho bad joined tho dueling corps and bad shown a special facility for handling the small sword. He had worsted ono antagonist after nnothor and shortly beforo leaving tho OEivorslty had been declared the cham pion for that year. Witty Ann Pitt. Bollngbrokc called England's great statesman. William Pitt (Lord Chat ham), "Sublimity Pitt," and ho dubbed his sister Ann "Divinity Pitt." But that must havo been long after there were written nnd received tho delight ful letters addressed to Pitt's "Dearest Nanny," his "llttlo Nan," his "littlo Jug." "Oh, for the restless tongue of dear llttlo Jug!" ho exclaims in a letter writ ton by him from Northampton when, a lad of twenty-tbreo, ho had but lately joined his regiment Ann Pitt's restless tongue was never stilled, for when Chesterfield, calling on ber in his later life, complained of decay with the words, "I fear that I am growing an old woman," Ann brisk ly replied: "I am glad of It. I was afraid you were growing an old man, vhicu, na you know, is a much worse thing."
