Arthur Irwin, the veteran scout of the

They are not to be had.

PASSING OF “MINER” BROWN
Chicago Cubs Ask for Waivers on
Services of Veteran “Three
Fingered” Twirling Star.
Mordecai Brown, curving wizard, is
soon to pass along, leaving behind
him a record of wonderful deeds in
the national gme. Waivers have been
asked on the three-fingered star who
has done so much toward bringing
pennants and world's championships
to Chicago, and his departure from the
West side, slated for the near future,
is due to the fact that he, injured his |
right knee while engaged in winning a :
ten-inning bail game last July. Since j
that mishap “Brownie" has been of no
service to the club and President Mur- i
phy applied for waivers. Last winter !
he signed n three-year contract.
News of the action taken by the Cub !
management leaked out in the east •
and was confirmed by Manager Chance
upon his return to Chicago. He stated j
he had learned this news from an
other player while sojourning in the
-
j Mordecai Brown.
east. Although the waivers have been
sought it dot .-n't necessarily follow
that Brown will be lost tp the National
league, for the veteran is regarded bv
! ev. ry manager and magnate in the
country as a star and valuable man in
j more departments than pitching.
It was while Brownie was with Oma
ha that Chance was first attracted by
his pitching. He advised Frank Selee
to land the three-fingered twirler, but
j the deal never was completed until
, 19uS, when the Cub manager showed
; through a trade whereby Brown came
to the West side along with Catcher
ONeill for the veteran Jack Taylor.
' Front the season 1905 to the present
time Brownie has been rated one of
the greatest twirlers the game ever
has known.
Four world's championships have
been featured by the presence of the
Hoosier pheuom. and in two of these he
played a prominent part in helping the
Cubs capture the highest honor in or
ganized baseball. For three years he
was unbeatable in games between Ohi
. cago and Pittsburgh, while the New
York Giants seldom were able to solve
his delivery. Perhaps his greatest feat
was staged in Chicago's final triumph
over the Giants for the National
league flag in 1908. when, after Pfies
ter had been driven from the slab Mor
decai went in and from the third to
the ninth silenced the enemy without
allowing another tally.
Tesreau leads the New York pitch
ers in shut out games.
There will be a baseball league in
Newfoundland next season.
Ked Booin seems to be able to
break anything but his streak of bad
luck.
The New York club still hopes to
secure Shortstop Ole Olson from

the new Ebbets field won't be d-.Si

FAD FOR MASCOT JEWELRY
One of the Prettiest Novelties That
Has Been Put Forward for
Many Seasons.
She who has money to afford novel
ties should go in for mascot jewelry.
Never has it been more fascinating.
Even if you are not superstitious, you
are not above a luck charm of some
sort.
A safety pin brooch, with a stone
'in the center, has attached to it by
a thin short chain, a lucky tortoise
in gold or enamel. The mascot can
be further enhanced by using ones
birth stone.
A motor bracelet of gold or silver
wire can have attached to it various
lucky charms, as the lucky finger in
ivory, a lucky penny, a tiny rabbit's
foot, and horseshoe, and a minute
blue bird for happiness as well as
safety. Sometimes these lucky pieces
are worn around the neck on a fine
fold chain, or they form an interest
ing pendant for the watch fob.
Great favorites are the lucky pig
and lucky .bear charm, w hile a novel
ty for the cat lover is a small bowl of
gold chain, or they form an interest
fish in it and a watchful cat at one
side.
A fascinating love charm which
comes in circular or heart-shape has
on it a plus and. minus sign with
Aujourdhui above the former and Qu
Hier beneath it. while beneath the
minus sign is Que Domain, which
translated means that the donor's love
shall daily be "mere than yesterday
and less than tomorrow.”
The fond father now presents moth
er with a ring containing the birth
stone of each child.

NEW FEATURE IN MILLINERY
——
Summary of Points About the Styles
That It Will Be Well to Keep
Always in Mind.
To sum up this season's new mil
linery features, we want to remember
that the head sizes are large; that the
hats set wall down on the head; 'hat
the crowns are moderately high; that
the tailored hats are small, the dre-is
hats large; that everywhere there is
irregularity of brim and crown; and
that the smartest hats have but lit
tle trimming and are in combination
effect.
| A buckle, for example, covered with
i fur will give a smart touch to a vel
vet or satin hat. and just think how
• little fur is needed. A few scraps of
: satin can be shaped into wings and fin
ished with an embroidery stitch, and
'thus make a new style trimming for
j a last year’s hat. And then, too, the
j idea of having the crown and brim of
I the hat of contrasting materials is
. helpful to the woman who wishes to
remodel the hat she wore last year.

Dainty Work Bag.
A yard of fancy ribbon about five
inches wide, and a ysrd and a half of
i half-inch ribbon of a harmonizing
: color, are needed to make a very pret
; ty work bag.
Put a hem three-quarters of an inch
; wide in either end of the piece of rib
| bon. Midway in the hem run an extra
row of stitching. This will provide a
■ place for the drawstring of the narrow

Oxford Eyeglasses.
If you do not wear your eyeglasses
all the time try the new ones that fold
like a lorgnette and are worn on a
ribbon or chain around the neck. They
are called Oxford 'glasses.
These glasses are large round ones
and are good for the eyes. They
have a wide, folding gold nosepiece.
with a patent, firm catch and a nar
row gold rim. When closed they look
like a monocle. A black ribbon, with
gold or jeweled slides, is very fash
ionable.
Acceptable Gift.
A woman who has traveled widely
says one of the most acceptable gifts
one can make to a friend going on a
steamer is a box or jar of stuffed
prunes. These are rarely given, can
be eaten when other fruits are in
digestible, and are mildly laxative.
As one authority advises free use of
prunes for nervous people, declaring
they have a quieting effect, the eating
the prunes on shipboard should help
to check seasickness—always aug
mented by “nerves."
Generous Youth.
"Walter, did you give your brother
the best part of the apple, as I told
you to?” asked the mother.
"Yes. mother,” said Walter, “I gave
him the seeds. He can plant 'em and
have a whole orchard.”—Ladies' Home
Journal.
SUGARED.
Kitty (blushing)—I am angry with
Horace, and I only gave you that kiss
through revenge.
Harry (laughing)—It reminded me
of revenge.
Kitty—In what way?
Harry—Well, you know, “revenge
Is sweet.”
Call to Arms.
"Bang!” went the rifles at the ma

“Oo-oo,” screamed the pretty girl—
a nice, “ecorous. surprised little

“Not at all." said the young man.
