"Ping" Bodie, Sensationai
Batter of White Sox.
Flioto by American Press Association.
Tho Chicago White Sox appear to
have picked In "ring" Bodie, the high
ly touted coast slugger, a batter of the
Ed Delehnnty type. Duffy kept tho
youngster on the bench until the oth
er day, when he used him In tho out
field against the Browns. Bodie mnde
good with four hits In Ave trips to the
plate. Bodie placed his first rap to
center; tho second, a double, found Its
way to right; the third, which netted
him a single, was hit to left; the fourth
effort was caught by the right fielder,
and "I'lng" wound up the afternoon
with a triple to left. Some placing the
ball there! Last season Bodie was u
member of the San Francisco team
and led tho Pacific Coast lengue lu
home runs, having made thirty.
New Track Timer Invented.
A novel Invention in the shape of nn
apparatus for automatically taking
measurements of the work of track
athletes at all points in a race has Just
been Installed on tho running track in
the Robinson gymnasium, Kansas uni
versity. The machine, which is the
first of its kind and the invention of
Dr. Nalsmlth, director of physical cul
ture, consists of small bamboo sticks
located along the track so as to divide
the course into quarters.
The sticks project over the track and
are touched by tho breast of the run
ner as ho passes. The bamboos are
connected to n mako and break elec
trical machine, which transmits the
touch of the runner to a kymograph,
which holds a lamp blacked paper on
which marks arc made. A clock Is
used In connection with the kymo
graph for purposes of timing-.
Carl Morris Is Good, Says Jeannette.
Joe Jeannette, nfter spending some
weeks with Carl Morris, the Oklahoma
giant, in Tulsa, says that tho bis 'el
low is n real fighter, much better than
people have been led to bcltowa TIo
says Morris is wonderfully efceong and
Is a tremendous hitter TriSffi cither
hand, but that ho simply lac&s experi
ence. Efforts will be made to Induce
Morris to take on Fireman Jim Flynn,
who knocked out Al Kaufman In ten
rounds in Kansas City recently. If
Morris should agree to fight Fiynn nnd
should beat him the Oklahoma man's
subsequent challenge to Johnson
would have to be recognized.
Is 8allee Best Left Handed Pttoher?
"Sallee thinks ho is the best left
hand pitcher in the National league
and is going to proves it before the
season is over," says Roger Bresna
han. MNap Rucker of Brooklyn has
nothing on Sallee; neither has George
Viltsc. I caught Wlltso for the New
York club and know bim like a book.
Sallee has the best control of any
southpaw that ever curved a ball over
the plate in my tirne."
Clark Establishes Record.
In getting ten put-outs in left field in
a St. Louis game recently Manager
Clarke set a major league record. In
1800 Dick Harloy caught eleven fly
balls at Springfield. Jimmy Slagle
caught thirteen in 1S97 In a Grand
Rapids game.

Hints For the Dairyman. .
The best thing for any dairying lo
cality is tho organization of cow lest
associations.
The animal that pays tho best Is
bound to be in evidence as dairymen
become better Informed.
It is a mistake to suppose that n
good cow of Inferior breeding Is quali
fied to drop a good calf.
Never feed hay or sweep or lu any
way stir up dust Just previous to milk
ing time, for this will contribute to
the introduction of bacteria, which
ontnmlnnte nnd injure the quality of
the milk.
Dirt nlwnys contains germs. There
fore wipe nil dust from the cow's ud
der and flanks with a wet clotli before
milking begins and sec that no dirt
has gained entrance to the milking
pail.
Separate the cream while the milk is
still wnrni and In cold weather first
run hot water through the separator to
warm it. Strain the milk into tho sep-
lrntor through a wire gauze.
The Care of Lamb:.
At eight to ten days of ago lambs
will begin to cat. At that time a
:reop should be built which will give
them access to a feed box containing
grain and a trough with hay. Box,
trough and feed should always be kept
sweet and clean.
A good ration for lambs is uiudc as
follows: Mix one-third part of ollmenl
with one part each of bran, oats and
fine cornmeal. Red alfalfa hay or the
second cutting of nlfalfa hay Is the
most desirable form of roughage. Of
the two alfalfa Is to bo much pre
ferrcd.
It is a good idea to keep up tho
grain feed right along until tho lamb
ore sent to market. By so doing the
lambs are kept fat all tho time anil
are ready to bo turned Into cash on
short notice should the market take o
sudden rise.
Manure the Lawn.
Spread manure over tho lawn to re
vive tho grass this spring. Grasses
respond readily to n liberal applica
tion of manure, and the lawn will
show its green color after other
swards have turned brown under the
Influence of a poor soli.
CARING FOR THE
S,
Fowls May Be Profitably Hatched
as Late as August.
The guineas are usually hatched un
der chicken hens. A good sized Wyan
dotte hen can cover from seventeen to
twenty guinea eggs. We usually set
two hens at tho same tlmo and when
the guiueasnro hatched all of them are
slven to one hen, and tho other hen is
either broken up or set again, writes
a correspondent of Farm and Fireside.
The hen and the young guineas are
put in a box where they will keep dry,
aud the young guineas cannot escape
or get lost.
Thoy are kept In confinement until
the guineas are a week or ten days old.
Then, if tho weather is pleasant, they
aro turned out during the duy and
allowed to depend largely upon them
selves to secure food. While tin
guineas are young they aro given n
little hard boiled egg, some bread
crumbs or coarsely ground meal fed
dry. They are given water to diink;
also some sweet milk occasionally.
In rainy weather keep the little
guineas in a dry place, as they are very
tender while young and cannot stand
much cold. They Should bo gathered
to the shelter before any hard rains.
Lust summer we Intrusted thlity
seven young guineas to one hen, nnd
jlin did well by them. After the
guineas are four or five weeks old
they are able to care for themselves so
far as tho food Is concerned, hut they
will continue to run with tho mother
hen until thoy are nearly grown.
If provided with a suitable roosting
place they will come in every evening.
going out early In tho morning in
search of bugs and worms nnd staying
until late. Thoy will grow fat nnd
plump nnd will care for themselves un
til winter sets in, shutting off their sup
ply of food from tho fields. Do not hatch
young guineas until warm weather.
Juno and July aro good months for tho
young guineas to batch, although they
will grow to marketable slzo by Christ
mas if batched as lato as August.
Poultry Note.
Hens like clean nests. Remember
this all tho time.
The henhouse should always bo lo
cated on a high, well drained spot.
Fresh air is as essential for tho
chickens as for any of tho stock: upon
tho form.
Many of tho so called diseases in tho
poultry yard may bo traced to unclean
conditions.
To got tho best results from a flock
of chickens yon should know tnetr
needs. The only way tn do this is to
study the birds regularly.
The best way to start In the poultry
business is to get a few bona and eet
them on good eggs. These should al
ways bo bought from a reliable breed
er and should bo from pure bred stock,
FOR THE CHILQREt,
Running Away.
TMeo little children u.. ...t - a"y
(Hush! Don't fill i ),
Hand tn tiv. il to a lovely U.i.J.
Off where ihe fairies dwell.
Oh, what fun, for tlio land is larKc
Shaded with candy trees!
Thero you can play the livelong day.
There you can do as you please.
Como In tho oirly morning time.
Come In the dusky eve,
Como with the throng and hurry along

Up to Snuff.
Wo have a habit of saying of a per
son who knows how to make the most
of opportunities that he Is "up to
snuff."
When wo associate the powdered to
bacco which people put Into their
noses with this expression it appears
to hnvo small sense.
The reason lies further back In the
origin of the word snuff Itself. Snuf
feu is tho German for smell. It for
merly meant not only to Identify od j?3
by means of tho nose, but to scent n
thingthat Is, to discern a thing. "To
smell a rat" and "on the right scent"
both have their origin In this. Thus
"up to snuff" means up to a superior
standard of discernment, or tho ability
to follow n clew, etc.
Accordingly the expression has a
deal more sense in It than appears nt
first glance.
A Young Fireman.
Nnly Reese and his little brother.
Earl, were alone In their nouse in
Manor, Pa when one of them acci
dentally set fire to tho window cur
tain. The curtain flared up In an In
stant, nnd Nnly ran outdoors, calling
for help. Xnly Is eight years old, and
boys no older than that caunot bo ex
pected to fight fires. They cannot be
expected to, but sometimes they do. j
Earl is only six years old, but ho was i
old enough to bo a brave boy. He did
not run after his brother. Ho pulled '
at tho burning curtain, got It down to I
tho floor nnd thun rolled It up, burn-
Ing as Is was, and stamped on It. When j
some neighbors hurried Into the home
they found that tho fire was out and I
that Earl was sitting on tho floor by
the side of tho charred curtain and
crylnc because his hands were burned ,
Leapfrog.
This is the simplest but one of the
best of overback games. The play
ers stand behind each other, forminj;
a long line. The first player in the line
makes u hack, the second leaps over
and makes a back a few feet farther
on, tho first one still remaining down
Tho third player goes over tho Ural
one, then tho second, and in his turn
makes a back a few feet beyond the
second one, nnd this is continued un
til all the line are down. Then the
boy who made the first back starts
again and leaps each of the backs and
makes another back beyond the end
of the line, the next player follows
suit, and thus a continually advancing
lino of backs Is formed. Tho whole
fun of this game lies in Its being play
ed with spirit.
A Happy Family.
In Los Angeles there is a cat named
Polly, and she had four kittens. Three
of them were taken away from her,
and she felt unhappy. She roused her
self long enough to kill a rat, and then
she found that there were three little
motherless tats left in a soft nest. She
had had a good meal, and so she. did
not eat them. She adopted them. She
took each ono In her mouth nnd car
ried It to her own bed, where tho lono
kitten remained, and when she had
made her family complete she set
about taking care of them. Teople
came for miles around to look at the
cats and tho rats and take pictures of
them.
Conundrums.
How long did Cain hate his brother?
As long as he was Abel.
What is that which lives in the win
ter, dies in tho summer and grows
with its roots upward? An icicle.
Why is necessity like a stupid law
yer? Because it knows no law.
Why la Athens llko a wornout shoo?
Because It once had n Solon (solo on).
Why will an insolent fishmonger get
moro business than a civil one? Bo
cause when he sells fish he gives
sauce with It.
Why is a banker's clerk well In
formed? Because ho is continually
taking notes.
Game of Sergeant.
One child is chosen for the sergeant,
the others representing the soldiers.
When the sergeant says "Do this," all
the players must imitate him. IIow
ever, when ho says "Do that," they
must take no notice. If a soldier
makes a mlstako ho drops out. Tho
soldier who stays in lino longest bo
comes sergeant next or wins a prize.
Delicate Workmanship.
An expevt workman in ono of the
great needlo factories in a test of skill
performed ono of the most delicate
feats imaginable. He took a common
sewing needle of medium size, an inch
and five-eighths in length, and drilled
a hole through its entire length from
eye to point.
Interesting Portage Stamps.
Postngo stamps tell tho story of the
history of Switzerland when they mark
the unification of the government of
tbo country under one central power.
In 1850 ono uniform set of stamps took
the placo of all the many stamps
which had been used In tbo separate
cantons.
A WANING
HONEYMOON
Lcvc Came to the Rescue Be
fore It Was Too Late.
"1 can stand this no longer. Just
think the honeymoon scarcely over
and to bo subjected to such treat
ment!" She stamped her foot.
"Honeymoon!" he replied. "There's
mighty little honey in it. If that's all
the moon has to eat I don't wonder it
wanes so soon."
"How could It help waning, with you
dying to got back to those horrid men
who sent you home stupefied the night
before I was going to sny tho wed
dingI mean my covenant with Sa
tan?" "You mean that our honeymoon
waned because I got 'full' at my bach
elor dinner?"
"This is no time for your witticisms.
I didn't know thnt I wns placing my
life in the hands of one who could
lose his self respect by pouring wine
down his throat."
"I thought all bachelors were privi
leged to drink a last cupful of happi
ness before submitting to n life of mis
ery." "Before dragging a wife Into a life
of misery, you should say. Oh, that I
should have put my neck In a halter!"
"And mine in chancery."
"I'm going hack to my mother."
"And I to my club. My room there
is not yet taken."
"I suppose you sent to find out be
fore your promise to love nnd cherish
was a day old."
"No; as soon as yours to honor and
obey wns broken."
"I was a fool to promise to honor. I
never promised to obey."
"They should change the words for
women to 'not to scratch.' "
" 'Not to be devils' would do very
well for the men, only men could not
keep a promise to change their na
tures." "Singular that you didn't see the
hoof under my stocking when we were
courting."
"Oh, the devil knows how to wear i
gaiters."
During the latter part of this dla-
logue the young wife was putting on J
her "things" to go. She looked very
pretty as she stood before n mirror
thrusting pins through hat and hair.
The anger In her cheeks and eyes was
very becoming.
"Better not Jab that spike in when
you're mad," said the husband, with
brutal plainness. "You might pierce
your brain."
"Little you'd care if I did."
There was more tremolo, which
would hnvo led any but a sulky man
to seek a reconciliation.
"I might get a now honeymoon," said
tho husband tauntingly.
To this there was no reply except a
now flash of the eye. She was open
ing boxes on the dresser nnd shutting
them with an angry bang.
"Looking for your gloves?"
No answer.
"If It's your gloves you're looking for
I've got them in my pocket. You re
member last night when we were walk
ing home and you were telling mo how
happy you were because you had such
an admirable husband. Your hands
were cold, and you took off your gloves
so that I could warm your fingers."
ne tossed the gloves on tho dresser.
His wife picked them up nnd walked
out of tho room, no heard tho front
door bang, then betook himself to his
club.
Looking about for some of his for
mer associates to dine with htm, he
found they had nil made engagements,
and he was obliged to dine alone.
After dinner he drank his coffee and
smoked his cigar in the cafe. It didn't
look so attractive as it had once look
ed. Ho was bored in fact, he was
troubled. Lovers who try to mako up
their minds that they aro haters al
ways feel troubled. It was not long
before this one began to worry, thluk
ing ho might have gone too far and
that ho should have given ids wife a
chance to make up. At 0 o'clock ho
concluded to go to his dosolato homo.
As he wns approaching ho saw the
iflguro of a woman turn tho corner.
'Sho looked up at tho house, paused,
turned away,. looked back, turned
again nnd walked slowly to the house.
Tho husband stepped behind a tree.
Tho woman went to tho front door,
stood Irresolute, Inserted a key, open
ed the door and went in.
"Oh, she took a key, did she?"
IIo concluded to tako a short walk.
It would help matters for her to find
him absent Tho houso would look as
lonely to her as his club had looked to
him. In an hour ho returned nnd went
in, humming a merrjr tuno. His wife
wns not downstairs, So ho sailed up
into their bedroom. Sho was standing
before tho mirror in her nightdress
combing her hair.
"Hello!" ho said, with feigned sur
prise. "Tired of your mother al
ready?" Thero was no answer.
"Oh, I thought perhaps you might
bo penitent!"
no could see a flash in her reflection
in tho mirror. She put her hair up in
a knot, walked to where sho had left
her clothes and began to put them on.
Ho was a very mean fellow and per
mitted her to drcsa bersolf, evon to
putting on her bat But when sho
started to leave he caught her In his
arms, her head fell on his shoulder,
and that was the end of it for that
