THE BIRTHPLACE OF CRICKET
A granite monolith was recently
unveiled at Hambledon, a little vil
lage In Hampshire, to mark the ac
tual birthplace of English cricket.
The Hambledon men Invented cricket
a century and a halt ngp, and In cele
bration of their exploit a Hambledon
team has been playing All England.
Twelve famous cricketers from the
All England team came down to play
and to witness the unveiling of the
monolith, an cvrnt scheduled to be
brought off by Dr. W. 0. Grace, the
dean of English cricketers. Time
passed, but the doctor did not appear,

The Granite Monolith Erected nt Hambledon, England, to Mark the Birth
place of English Cricket On the Left Is the
Old Bat and Ball Inn.
and at midday a telegram was re
ceived saying that he would shortly
arrive on the train. The train drew
In, and a burly, bearded man was seen
at the window of a first-class carriage.
"Dr. Grace!" cried a delighted por
ter, waving his hand as a welcome to
Hambledon Festival.
The bearded, broad-shouldered
man cheerfully waved his hand In
recognition of the salute and alight
ed. His ticket was taken by an obse
quious and highly gratified collector.
All the cabs and carriages were at
the cricket ground. The only vehicle
In the yard was waiting for a well
known hunting man.
He heard the cries, "Grace Is here,"
and then "There he Is," and at once
placed his carriage at the disposal of
the distinguished arrival, and In com
pany with a photographer, who was
waiting for a chance to snap the great
cricketer, drove him to Broad Hair
penny Down. '
Hambledon village was a-flutter
with flags and bunting In honor of the
famous match nnd as the carriage
passed tho word spread that Dr.
Grace was the smiling gentleman
with the enormous beard.
Each time cricket was mentioned,
however, the "Doctor," with great
modesty, switched off the conversa
tion suddenly. He talked of fishing,
shooting anything but cricket or
himself.
When Broad Halfpenny Down was
reached the driver hurried down to
Inform Mr. C. B. Fry, the captain of
tho Hambledon team, that Dr. Grace
had arrived. The moment Mr. Fry
saw the newcomer, however, his eyes
twinkled. It was not Dr. Grace at
all, but lils double.
It was discovered later that Dr. W.
G. Grace could not conic, owing to
other engagements. The double sub
sequently wrote a humorous letter of
appreciation to the London press.
The granite memorial, which faces
the old Bat and Ball Inn, where the
Hambledon cricketers have always
met, bears the Inscription:
This Marks the Sit
of the Ground
of the
Hambledon Cricket Club.
Circa 1750 1787.

notes. At one time ho was address

on the Importance of not being too
closely confined to a manuscript. By

was called upon to ofllclate at a fu
neral: "When the minister arrived at the
town where the deceased had lived
he had Just time to make a few in
quiries about his traits and achieve
ments, the results of which he noted
on a memorandum. His eulogy at
the service, as reported, was about
as follows:
" 'Our dear brother, whom we
mourn to-day, was a man of rare
character and ability. He had the
mental capacity of a' referring to
his notes 'Daniel Webster, the tact
of a' again consulting his memo
randa 'Henry Clay, the pertinacity
of a' another reference 'Ulysses S.
Grant. We can only mourn him with
profound and sorrowful regret now
that he has gone to meet his' an
other reference to his notes 'God.' "

f MERRY SIDE
New Airship.
London. A mysterious and closely
locked shed near the largo public
school at Wokingham has recently giv.
en rise to rumors of an airship under
construction. Investigation has now
confirmed the report. Tho airship
proves to be a flying machine con
trolled by a rudder. It has no gas
bag, and Is driven by a petrol engine.
The shape Is that f an elongated
cigar with the ends telescoping upon
the center. When extended tho length
of tho machine is 140 feet. It Is 20
feet wide and 31 feet high. Electric
light is generated and among other
features of the airship nro selfbalanc
ers and hammocks. The trials wlli
soon commence. Tho tnventor Is un
derstood to be dn touch with the mil
itary authorities.

The eczema got so bad that 1 could not
move my thumbs without deep cracks an

medicine could only stop the itching. At

Fiphting Fruit Pests.
Eternal vigilance, as well as good
planting and cultivation, Is necessary
for success In growing fruits or vege
tables or even shrubbery. Every
year seems to develop some new pest
or blight or other obstacle. The
conflict would bo hopeless to many if
it were not for the efficient nld ren
dered by such governmental activities
as the State and Federal departments
of agriculture. The bulletins of both
may be had usually for the asking,
and many a discouraged lover of
growing greens things will llnd in
them reasons for his failures and easy,
cheap, certain direction for defense.

The Richest Indian.
The last of the famous Pablo herd
of buffaloes were lately taken .from
the Flathead Indian reservation, Mon
tana, to the Canadian National park,
east of Edmonton, Alberta. M. Pablo,
tho former owner of tho herd, is un
doubtedly the richest Indian on the
continent, for ho has vast herds of
horses nnd cattle, aside from the
more than COO buffaloes which he sold
to tho Canadian government nt $223
each. He and his family will also
havo some of (ho chWccst hinds of
(lint fertile region when tho Flathead
reservation Is thrown open for settle
ment In September? -1909. None of the
Pablo family seems to havo extrava
gant tastes of a desire to see the world,
nor are any of the children the equal
of M. Pablo in business matters; so
one cannot, but wonder who in tho end
will benefit by Pablo's accumulated
wealth. Some of his clvili:;ed des
cendants, however, may yet be the
