NOTHING IS WASTED THERE
People of Haiti Treasure Packing
Boxes and Above All, Tin
)" Cans.
i
Iluiti Is one country where nlniost
everything Is utilized, partlculurlj If
the substance be wood or tin. Lumber
Is C0 per thousnnd, and any substi
tute for It Is eagerly welcomed.
For Instance, n partition fence be
longing to some well-to-do people on u
prominent street is made of the tops
bottoms and sides of packing ho.e
that contained cutis of condensed mill; ;
two doors farther on is a fence made
of old barrel staves; and a combina
tion of barrel staves and packing-box
strips for fencing Is by no means un
common. Tin cans, with the solder melted off
and the tops and bottoms removed, are
ilattened out ami used as shingles, In
mending fences, patching holes, ami
for numerous other put poses.
The live-gallon oil cans, however,
are prized and cherished family pos
sessions. These cans have a regular
market vulue of 15 to 20 cents gold
It Is no unusual occurrence for a wom
an to buy u five gallon can of kero
sene, hoist it to her head, and trapip
all day podding the oil In small quan
tities at cost, if she can do net bet
ter Just for tlfe sake of obtaining the
tin.
These receptacles are used for car
rying water, boiling clothes und stor
ing anil cooking food.
The tins in which live pounds of lard
some have a value of 10 cents gold,
rind are a standard measure, known
locally as a "inamitc." They are used
as a dry measure generally for corn,
beans, salt and the like.
Even the square tins In which
matches are shipped uro sold at 5 to
10 cents each.

Fresh From

New Post Toasties rep
resent the most appetizing
form in which choice,
nutritious Indian corn has
ever been prepared.
A new patented pro
cess which includes rotary
toasting under quick, in
tense heat cives these
flakes a delicious, new and distinctive flavour.
The New Toasties are featured by the bubbly
appearance of the surface of the flakes due to this
new art of toasting which releases the wonderful new
and attractive true corn taste.
New Post Toasties are not "chaffy" in the package;
and they don't mush down when milk or cream is
added like common "corn flakes."

He asked tho cause, and tho good

Baseball Magnates Agitated Over Re
suit Likely to Follow When Wages
Are Reduced Most of Trou
ble Be From Mouth.
One of the many questions agitating
the baseball powers that be Is this:
Is there going to be uny serious trou
ble wheu the salary cutting season
opens In tho fall?
Usually the pleasant autumnal
months have merely ushered in the
salary boosting time. Particularly was
this true when the Federal league was
in its hcjduy, picking all the peaches
from the O. B. hough that weren't
glued fast with higher salary cement
Tho winds that blew across the or
chard naturally boosted the total in
the old pay envelope. But now that
tho wind of competition Is stilled ah,
me I these coming days are likely In
deed to be "the saddest of the year."
But what will happen when the
pruning knife Is taken In hand and
tlie farmers set In to work? If, as Is
reported, salaries are really to go on
the toboggan, there's bound to be trou
ble. Of course, most of tho trouble
will be of the mouth variety. Tlie
"foot" may be added to the "mouth"
disease, in some Instances. Where
there Is auy doubt of tlie actual, real
value of n pluyer as n drawing card,
he may And himself in the discard If
he raises too big a howl.
It Is said that the players are up
to the minute prepared. From time
to time the members of the various
clubs have been meeting as tho sched
ule has brought them to New York,
und meeting not only themselves but
the managers of their own mutual pro
tection band. Just how mony meet
ings there have been behind the mys
teriously locked doors I don't know,
nor do I know how far any associa
tion has been formed and pluns laid.
CLASSY RIGHT-HAND PITCHER
Fred Toney of Cincinnati Is Ranked
Vlth Alexander Performing In
Clever Fashion.
In Fred Toney, Manager Mathew
son of Cincinnati, has one of the class
iest right-handed pitchers in baseball,
a man who ranks with Alexander In

Quaker star a run for pitching hon
ors In nil likelihood this season,
Toney Is n Southerner, having been
born In Nashville, Tenn., 20 years ago
lie first began pitching regularly In
1900 with an amateur team known as
the Free Silver Sluggers, In Nashville,
and lost but two games all year. The
following season he played semi
professionally In Nashville, winning
20 out of 31 games. In 100S he played

ceived a tryout with the Winchester
club of the Blue Grass league. IIo
made good und the following year was
the star of the league, though he didn't
advance. In 1000 he made such a
sensational record that the Philadel
phia Nationals obtained him and
took him up at the close of the year.
IIo was shifted to Chicago, where he
played tho following year, and after
a couple of seasons iigured in anoth

whom he is now performing in bril

OPPONENTS OF UNFAIR DhLIVERY.
Charges that pitchers arc making de
liberate use of the bean hall arc flying
thick and fast In the American league.
In the opinion of the mnjoilty It Is
high time that the solons of baseball
took n decided stand in this matter und
promulgate i ruling by whtch power
was vested in tho umplre-ln-chlef to
discriminate between a fust hall that
hroke sharply at a batter and tho de
liberate use of tlie bean ball to drive
a dangerous man back from the plate,
says n writer tn an exchange. A pitch
er declared guilty of tho use of this
unfair, It not illegal, delivery bhould be
fined und suspended.
To be sure, in the majority of cases
the hitting of a hatsman is due to ac
cident, but Just so long as ono pitcher
is accused of making use of such un
sportsmanlike tactics the batters
should bo protected. Imagine a man
liko Walter Johnson, Jeff Tcsroau,
drover Alexander or Jeff Pheffer, tho
PASSINU OF CHARLEY D00IN
Despite His Light Weight, He Caught
Wonderful Game of Ball Most
Accurate in Throwing.
Tho passing of Charley Dooln to the
Minors marks the retirement of an
other veteran from the big show.
Dooln started playing ball 18 years
ago. Dooln was the smallest of all
tho Major league catchers. When he
broke Into the big show lie weighed 128
pounds, and today tips the scales at
about 1E0. Nevertheless, he caught a
wonderful gumo of bull, und was noted
for his accurate throwing to second.
Dooln Is well fixed financially, being
a shrewd Investor.

Boger Bresnahan was hit and almost

But many n good man has been driven
