NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN
Chauffeur Had Overlooked a Matter
. That Really Was of the Grav-
Li est Importance.
As ho buttoned up his ovorcout be
fore belting olt on n motor tour, Jones
usked Ills chauffeur a few questions.
"Cnr nil ready? Have you put the
.spare Inner tubes In tho tonneau?"
"Ycssir."
"Aru the repair tools In tho box,"
and plenty of petrol in the tank?"
"Ycssir," replied the man again, pa
tiently. "Oiled It thoroughly?"
I "Yesslr." And this tlnio ho reeled
off n list of places to which he had
nppUed tho oil can.
The motorist's face grew black
when ho Hnlshcd.
"Why, you fool," he broke In, "you
have forgotten the most Important
place of all!"
The chauffeur stared at him In sur
prise. "You've forgotten the number plate
at tho back," snapped .Tones. "Take
the can and squirt some oil on It.
Then the dust will stick to It. Never,
forget to oil the number plate!"
American Fur Heads Preferred.

that the heads used for trimming furs

WAS MYSTERY NO LONGER
Bridegroom's Admission Satisfied
Small Boy as to the Disappear
ance of the Jelly.
It was a happy day for Algy when,
after a courtship of many years, he
sat at the wedding breakfast beside
his wife.
Unfortunately, ho was of a very shy
temperament, but on this momentous
occasion his nervousness was painful
to behold. The long table was lined
with the usual large number of ad
miring and criticizing friends, one of
whom proposed the health of the bride
and bridegroom.
I5ut the climax came when tho
bridegroom rose to respond.
"On this or this cr most sus
picious auspicious occasion," ho
Jerked out, "I feel" a long and em
barrassing pause "I feel too full for
wonK." Having concluded this bril
liant bit of oratory he sat down again.
"(rent Caesar! I told you so,"
piped Algy's newly-acquired brother
to his school chum, in a voice audible
to nil. "That's where all Uio Jelly
went to!"

PRAISE FOR YANKEES
Lee Magee Rated Second to Ty
Cobb by Manager Stallings.
Would Not Be Surprised to See Re
juvenated New York Team Lead
American League Catchers
Are Doubtful Quantity.
In tho opinion of that pcrformor of
baseball miracles, George T. Stallings,
manager of tho Braves, Loo Magco,
outiloldor of tho Ynnks, Is second only
to "Ty" Cobb as a ball player. Stall
ings also doclares that it would not
causo him tho least Burprlso to soo tho
rejuvenated Yanks lead tho Amorlcan
league this year. "Leo Magoo Is tho
aco In tho Yankeo dock," was tho way
Stallings put it.
"Somo people hnvo questioned my
Blncerlty in rating Mageo Just behind
TyruB Raymond Cobb as a ball player.
Yet that Is whoro I plnco him.
"I would havo paid nnythlng within
reason to get him for tho Braves. If
ho isn't a sensation in tho American
loaguo this year I'll bo sadly mistaken.
"Tho Yankees can win this year. It
wilt bo a closo raco, I imagine, in tho
Johnson circuit. Given fair catching
and a few breaks of tho game, Dono
van will bring home tho bacon."
"I honestly bellovo thnt your Yan

this season. Tho only thing that I am
doubtful about Ib tho catching depart
ment. "Tho Yanks havo tho pitching
strength, a clover infield with Baker,
Pecklupaugh, Godeon and Plpp, and a
romarkablo outfield with Malsel, Ma
geo and Gllhooloy.
"Nunamakor I know is not a grent
catcher. Nor is ho oven a good one.
Tho youngsters must como through.
Donovan must find in Alexander and
Walters a backstop abovo tho aver
age." ONCE HANK O'DAY WAS RIGHT
Advocated Rule Preventing Catcher
From Squatting Between Plato
and Base Runner.
Hank O'Day has been in wrong sov
eral times in his long career. But
once ho was right. That was when
ho advocated, recontly, a condition
which would prevent tho baseball
backstop from squatting betwoon tho
Umplro Hank O'Day.
runner and tho plate, whllo tho ball
Bpoeds toward him, making It impos
sible for tho player to roach tho cov
eted scoring pan, writes Ed Wray in
St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Tho general public has rather ex
alted tho catchor who pulls such
stunts, on the theory that any player
showing BUch devotion to his team
that ho Is willing to incur injury, it ho
can halt tho enemy, deserves a re
ward. On the samo theory, tho boy that
robs a bank to help a starving brother
ought to bo exalted.
In tho instance of tho backstop no
new rule is really necessary, If offi
cials would onforco tho oxlstonco of
regulations against Interference. For
interfering is precisely what Mr. Dead
Game backstop Is doing, when ho In
terposes his body, without tho ball in
his possession, ready for a bonafldo
attompt to tag an opponent.
Tho rfilos should entltlo tho runner
to a chanco to touch the plato or tho
base; any condition which prevents
this Is illegal.

"Demon Davo" Robertson, whoso
heavy hitting started tho Giants climb
ing out of tho collar, is tho sensation
of the early baseball season.
And Davo Robortson Is tho best an
iwor to tho arguments of thoso who
think John McGraw is a basoball dodo.
"Demon Davo" was undor age, study
ing votorlnnry surgery and pitching
hi n TIdowator leaguo club down In
Virginia, when McGrnw first got n lino
on him. With his father's permission,
Robortson was signed up to a contract
giving his services to tho Giants. Ho
played a little moro in tho Tidowatcr
league and then wont back to collego
In North Carolina.
Robertson Is a big, powerful follow
and a groat all-around athleto. Mc
Uraw advlsod him to cut out football
for fear somo injury might intorfero
with his ability. Robertson had been
playing baseball under an assumed
name. Back in collego ho couldn't
avoid gottlng into tho football lineup
again without making somo awkward
explanations. Ho played football. As
a result, in tho last gamo of tho sea
son ho had his loft shouldor broken.
"And right thoro," says John Mc
Graw, "I lost tho greatest southpaw
tho gamo ovor know."
Robertson's shouldor mended, but
a pitching arm must bo a perfect mil-

Leo Mageo of tho Yankees an

outfielder. Ho Is Clarenco Parker,
who halls from a collego at Dubuque.
Having secured Pltchor Boardman
from St. Paul, tho Sioux City club dis
posed of Pitcher Bcrnlo Doylo to To

one gamo for tho Nowark IndlanB, and
then Manager Tonney sent him back
to Connio Mack.
An odd thing about International
leaguo double-headers Is that they usu

It begins to look as If Paskort and
Whlttcd will havo a hard tlmo keeping

finishing his studies Robortson report

with tho Giants.
Wiso peoplo advised McGraw to lot

Robertson nover would bo any good.
Robortson offered to go through tho
season without pay, but McGraw kept
him an Insisted upon paying htm tho
salary his contract callod for. Ho hod

lot him rest. Thrco years ago Robort

Giants. Ho tried to pitch, and put tho
weak shoulder out of commission. Mc
Graw Induced Mike Finn of tho Mobllo
team to tako Robortson for tho soa
son and uso him as an outfloldor.

pick up again. Ho couldn't pitch, but
ho could play In tho outflold and ho
could knock tho sonms out of a baso
ball. Ho becamo tho hitting sensation
of tho South. And then McGraw
reached down nnd took him back
again. McGraw had boon sticking to
Robortson principally bocatiBO ho know

Robortson tako a short swing at tho
