ERRORS OF MANAGERS
Often Turn Down Players Who
Later Become Stars.
I Ward Miller, Secured by Cube for
$300. Now Held at $10,000 by Mon
treal Club—Hitting Above
.300 Mark.
Some of the rnea who buy and sell
ball players certainly do have some
ta-J half hours. What would you think
if you had purchased a ball player for
$300. had sold him tor $1,500 and then
wanted him bark ana was asked $7,000
and severe 1 players? Wouldn't you
feel like swearing?
A couple of years ago a fellow
named Ward Miller became the prop
erty of the Chicago team—was drafted
from a small minor league and cost
$300. Manager Chance looked him
over and figured he wasn't quite right
He asked ior a waiver, and the Pirates
refused to allow him to go. That was
in the days when you had to seil a
man for whom you asked waivers—
uu pulling back Miller went to the
Pirates, Clarke looked him over. After
a while he decided Miller wouldn't do.
and the latter went to Cincinnati on
a trade ihat made Blaine Durbin, the
ronner Cub pitcher, a Pirate.
Clark Griffith looked over Miller and
hacked tha judgment of Chance and
Clarke. He figured Miller would cot
do in the majors, and be went to the
Eastern league. Well, this year Mil
ler struck his stride. He is hitting
: over .300 tor the Montreal club and
■ running the bases like a wild man
! George Huff, the Cub scout, went tc
: look him over. Huff wired President
Murphy that Miller could be secured
for $7,000 and two players.
suck aruuuu uuiu iuuiurro« ; may
be they will come down." was Mur
phy's answer by wire to his scout. The
next day the Cub presideut received
an answer, it read like this: "Price
har gone up—now they want $10,000."
and the telegram was signed Huff
“Catch the first train or they'll bcost
the price to $20,000." were the instruc
tions of President Murphy. Don't you
suppose the Cub magnate teels like
bottling himself when he thiuks of
the time when he had this fellow at a
cost of $200?
And these same baseball men will
give you a warm time if you attempt
to convince them that O'Toole, the St.
Paul pitcher, cost Barney Dreyfuss
$22,500 in real money. Here's one that
President Comlskey of the Sox telis
on Joe Cantillon. Joe, it will be re
membered, was formerly the manager
of the Washington team in the Amer
ican league and then went to Minne
apolis to boss that team.
"Joe had heard that somebody had
offered Lemon $12,000 for O'Toole."
said President Comlskey. “So the next ;
time that oJe saw Lennon he opened j
on him: T understand that you have
been offered $12,000 for O'Toole.' said |
Joe. 'Yes.' was Lennon's reply. ‘Well,
1 guess I'm the biggest fool of all.'
said Joe. 'In the first place 1 didn't
know there was anybody in baseball
so crazy as to offer that much money j
for any ball player. And. in the next :
place, I would have sworn there was
nobody in baseball crazy enough to
have turned down such an offer, once
he had It.' *'
Which shows you that the faus were
not the only ones to gasp at the price.
Even practical baseball men had a
difficult time believing that any mag
nate would separate himself from tbat
amount of money for a ball player.

CAUSE OF TOOTHACHE
•k*
High Tension Electrical Currents;
Responsible tor Suffering.
Physicians Have Traced Many Other
Ailments to Electricity—Increas
ing Use Causes Much
Apprehension.
New York.—Wireless toothache, due
to the high tension electrical currents
produced in sending wireless mes
sages, is the latest disease discovered
by New York physicians, and it is
said hundreds of wireless operators,
professional and amateur. In this city
and its neighborhood are suffering
from It Prediction Is also made that
the heavy currents discharged by the
wireless telegraph will produce other
nervous disesses among those who ex- i
pose themselves too much to such
phenomena. There perhaps are thou- :
sands of amateur wireless operators in
New York city. Investigation dis
closes that many of them have hail ;
toothache since they began their wire
less studies ajid experiments. What
other diseases of a nervous sort have
followed In the wake o' the current
only will be revealed by scientific In- '
vestigation.
A prominent European physician
discovered the wireless toothache, and
the bad effect of the high tension cur- 1
rents on the nerves of his patients. |
He predicts there will be a general '
Increase of nervous ailments, due to
that cause. That physician says the
neurotic elements are affected so by
the currents that a low grade neuritis
is produced which progresses accord
ing to each patient’s general physical
condition, hygienic surroundings, oc
cupation and habits. The Europeon
Investigator points out that the elec
tricity artificially permeates the sur
rounding atmosphere and that a per
son brought In contact with it. day
after day. must have a good constltu
tion to withstand Its effects Weak
persons even may suffer from aggra
vated forms of nervous disorder by *
the wireless process, he asserts.
When the European physician an
nounced the discovery of wireless
toothache he was scoffed at by other
doctors, who had not studied the ques
tion as he had. The discovery, how
ever, is being regarded seriously on
both sides of the Atlantic, and skilled
minds are seeking to discover what
other ailments may be caused by such
high tension currents being loose in
the air.
It is recalled the X-ray afreets the
skin and tissues insidiously and often
disastrously. Nor Is It any secret that
persons who are compelled to pass
long periods in rooms where big dyna
mos are In operation frequently show
neurotic tendencies. Physicians who
use the ultra-vioiet. high tension and
other forms of electricity in treatment
often suffer neurotic affections. These
things Indicate, it is suggested, that
disease producing qualities !urk in
electricity of which little is known as
yet. Third rails, live trolley wires,
telephone and telegraph wire- and
other agencies are discharging into
the air constantly currents of elec
tricity which pass through persons in
the streets and elsewhere, and there
are physicians who fear that as the
use of electricity increases, wireless
telegraphy and telephony get in full
swing, wireless toothache will be
merely one of a long list of nervous
diseases directly traceable to excess
of electricity In the atmosphere.

WAR ON GROUND SQUIRRELS
Government Officials Destroying Ro
dents Infested With Bubonic Plague
Germs—Cats Warned Away.
Seattle. Wash.—Polo wing the news
that gronnd squirrels caught along the
Columbia river were found to be in
fested with germs of the bubonic
plague, government employes are go
ing through farms and ranches poison
ing and killing the squirrels by every
method yet devised.
The ground squirrels of the Pacific
slope from southern California to Brit
ish Columbia have been found to pos
sess the germs of the plague. The lo
calities where the germ-laden squir
rels have been discovered are yet
widely separated, but the federal au
thorities are taking no chances with
the pests carrying the disease farther
away.
The squirrels are being poisoned and
trapped by the federal employes, who
are making every effort to prevent
communication of the plague germ
to tile rats of the cities and towns
along the coast. Since embedded in
the black wharf rats of the coast cit
ies the danger of a quick spread of
the plague to human beings is almost
certain. It is said by experts that a
bite by the ground squirrel or rat in
fected by the germs would be suffi
cienuto transmit the disease to other
animals and to human beings.
Because of its prevalence in parts
of the northwest, farmers who have
been employing cats to rid the fields
of gophers and squirrels have been
warned to keep the cats in. lest they,
too. become infected, making it easy
to transmit the disease to the family.

NEW SKIRT DISPLAYS ANKLES
Man Milliner of New York Tells of
French Style Which Permits
of Easy Walking by Women.
New York.—Charles Kurzman. the
world famous Fifth avenue milliner,
who arrived the other day on the
Kaiser Wilhelm II., brought word of
a new fashion set at Trouvllle to per
mit of more graceful walking and
showing the ankles. The new style,
set by the Baronne de Vaughan at the
French watering place, is the antithe
sis of the old hobble skirt, which re
stricted and hampered walking in
stead of making it easy.
Mr. Kurzman also declared that the
fashion of the season will be curves
in the making of gowns and that the
Parisian couteriers have orders to
make curves, no matter how the fig
ure. and that they bad evolved some
startling effects.
Fur hais and large velvet bats will
be the rage this season and paradise
and ostrich feathers, as well as goura.
will be seen much In fashionable bead
gear.
“SEA SERPENT’ IN A CANAL
- ?
Bather Who Fled Before It Says Its
Head Was Like a Dog's—Fol
lowed by Several Men.
Richfield. N. J.—Several bathers In
the Mortis canal made a hasty retreat
from the water when the cry of "devil
fish” was raised by Robert Thompson,
a farm band.
Thompson, who wa« some distance
from the other bathers, declares that
when he first saw the monster It was
following him with Its bead out of the
water. He at first thought It was a
small dog. but on looking at it more
closely he discovered, he says, that
Its head was similar to that of a por
poise. The 81range creature followed
him to the bank, and he says he
climbed up the bank Just In time to
escape It The monster then turned
about and went down stream toward
the other bathers.
Not knowing what the thing was
and wishing to warn the others.
Thompson called out: “Look out for
the devil fish!” This had the desired
result and the men left the water.
Albert Woodrow of Brookdale, who
had a good view of the thing as It
passed him In the water, says that it
was at least 10 feet long, had a round
greenish body and a head as big as
that of a bulldog, which It bobbed up
out of the water at intervals. “If it
was a water snake." declared Wood
row. "It warn the biggest I ever saw.
and 1 have seen hundreds of them."
Several men followed It down th«
canal for a short distance, but It went
so fast that they soon lost sight of it
Word was sent to the lock tender at
the Bloomfield plane to keep a look
out for the fish, but so far It has not
been seen at that point The alarm
reached Bloomfield and the several
bathing resorts on the canal were
soon deserted.
Another Matter.
“There goes a man who _ would
charge to the cannon's mouth."
"Maybe, so, but would he face the
fire of the rocking chair brigade at i
cummer hotel?"
CHILD PREVENTS SPREE
- 4e_—
Bad Man of Nevada Meets Penniless
Tot. Shows Her the Sights and
Goes Home Sooer.
Winnemucca, Nev.—Tbe other day
Jack Woodruff mounted his horse at
Paradise. Nev.. 45 miles from Winne
mucca—off tbe railroad, but on tbe
map—concluding to take in tbe circus
which showed here. His Intention
waa. In addition to seeing the circus,
to make a day of It after the manner
of the reckless kind—not only shoot
ing up the town as In days or yore,
but as near to it as modern civilised
conditions would *iermlt
Everything, however, moved wrong
with Jack when be got to Winne
mucca, and In a somewhat surly mood
he lounged to the circus lot early,
took In the side show, bought his tick
et for the big three-ringed event and
meandered toward the front door.
A little girl, trembling with excite
ment at the novel scenes about her,
was standing In his way. He halted
and said curiously:
"Sir. ain’t you going to the circus 7"
“Me." she timidly answered. “I
! haven't got the money." Whereupon
I Jack went back and bought a ticket
i for the girL
While the fire engine was running
to the clown's fire and Rescue Hose
No. 1 was doing antics saving people
and the whole tent was in an uproar,
he turned to the little girl and said:
“Sis, how do you like the circus?"
All she replied was: "Tt’a Just beau
tiful."
This was repeated in answering his
questions a half dosen times, and
Jack's Interest in the child , became in
tensified. .
When the performance in the big
tent was over he seised her by the
hand and took her into the menagerie,
where she eras mystified and delight
ed and was loathe to leave, hanging
back and taking a last lingering look
at the camels and elephants. When
Jack got her to the front door, or
marque, be met the balloon boy and
bought the blue-eyed little girl in a
blue calico dress a blue balloon and
another bag of popcorn.
“Little girl, how did you like th«
circus?" he finally inquired, smtlingly
and almost tenderly.
"It was Just beautiful." she answer
ed again, with tears running down her
cheeks. And Jack, putting his hand
to his /eyes, found tears running down
there, also. A moment later he called
out, “Good-by. little girl." and. getting
on his horse, rode back to Paradise.
45 miles away.
When he reached home bis folks
asked hint how be liked the show,
whereupon he answered somewhat
softly tor him:
"ft was bully! Sared me a bit
drunk, somehow."

IT SAVES TIME AND TEMPER
Wise and Methodical Housewives Havs
a Cleaning Up Day About Once a
Month.
A good plan followed by methodical
housewives is to set aside a day occa
lionally—say. once in four months or
jo—for a general clearance of odd
nents and the putting straight of cup
boards and wardrobes. One whole day
bassed in thus attending to details
will result. later on, in the saving of
,'aluable time and perhaps, of temper
ilso. Apart from such important items
»s checking the contents of the linen
buplfoard of kitchenware, etc., there
ire many things in the home that re
; luire regular attention.
On the ''miscellaneous” day it is as
well tq lay down a dusting street in
t >ne particular room, which will serve
is a receptacle for all rubbish intend
?d to be thrown away.
• W riting desks will probably require
.'onsiderable attention; old blotting
baper should be consigned to the dust
i ng sheet and replaced by fresh blot
ing paper; inkpots that have become
! blogged should be emptied, washed
»nd refilled; pencils should be sharp
; sned; old nibs thrown away and fresh
>nes substituted.
Another little task for the ‘‘miscel
aneous” day Is to collect together
i blunt knives and scissors and send
hem to be sharpened. Music, too,
nay be looked through and torn pieces
set aside for mending later on.
Then again, if time permits, it is
well to include in this occasional work
.he overhauling of traveling trunks,
noting any repairs that may be neces
sary, seeing that straps are in their
- blaces and locks and keys in good or
i ler. and polishing any leather trunks
.hat look dusty, and would be the bet
j ;er for the application of nourishing
bream.
LEGS FOR TRUNK DEVISED
They Are Pivotally Attached to the
Corners and Fold Along the
Bottom.
An Illinois man’s device for sup
porting steamer and other small
trunks so that the owner does not
have to break his back or get down
on his knees to get Into them should
Interest many people. "Shis support
ing device consists of four legs, eact
pivotally attached to a corner of the
i- 1
trunk at the bottom. When not In us*
the legs fold up along the bottom line
i of the trunk and protect the corners
| When the receptacle is to be packed
; or unpacked or is to be used as a bu
reau in a two-by-four hotel room, the
i legs can be extended and locked Into
j position, supporting the trunk about
1 eight inches above the floor and mak
! ing it much easier or access. In either
the extended or the folded position the
legs are so firmly locked that there is
no danger of their collapsing, in the
| one instance, or being broken off, in
j the other.
—
Removing Grease.
If your kitchen table is spottec
! with grease, or if the dresser has dabs
j and spots of grease on it. you cat
! clean the woodwork perfectly b>
| scrubbing it rigorously with hot water
j to which’a teaspoonful of whiting has
j been added.
Wipe thoroughly dry with a clear
cloth and the wood will be as good as
new.
It is well to have both table and
dresser covered with white table oil
cloth that can be washed after each
meal. If you do use oil cloth provide
yourself with thick mats of card
board or asbestos on which to set hot
plates or skillets, for heat will surely
ruin any oil cloth witn which it comes
directly in contact. ^
Ragout of Vegetables.
Parboil one carrot, one turnip, two
'potatoes, two ears of corn, one cup
lima beans, the same of peas, one
onion and with them one pound of
salt pork Slice all the above vege
tables. Put into a saucepan with a
cup of the soup before thickening:
season well. Cut the corn from the
cob and add with the peas and beans
and a sliced tomato as soon as the
rest are hot. Stew all together half
an hour. Stir in a lump of butter
rolled in flour. Stew five minutes and
pour into a deep dish.
Sour Cream.
Sour milk and cream may be utilised
In making cottcge cheese, griddle
cakes, etc. One-half cupful of thick
sour cream added to a veal or beef
loaf when mixing makes it very moist
and unusually good.
Sour cream may also take the place
af sweet milk in boiled dressings for
salads and sandwich fillings. It Is a
splendid substitute for sweet milk
when making chocolate or maple fudge '
for candy or cake filling.
Sour milk will clean allverware
beautifully.
