Fred Smith for that Isn't his name by
several Inches is an cllglblo young mnn with
u reputation ns clean and white us n porce
lain bathtub and a frank way of siitlug
down In the front parlor while tho light Is
still burning that endears htm to mothers
with daughters worth taking caro of. When
Mr. Smith Is a girl's escort for tho even
ing her parents retire at 0 o'clock and don't
nwnken until It's Hum for breakfast. They
don't even ask' her what tltuu she got
home which Is the truo test.
Mondny evening Mr. Smith and an al
mighty nice girl living on North Eighteenth
street rodn a pair of bicycles over to tho
waterworks at Florence that thoy might
get a look at tho moon from Its other side
and discuss tho Interesting differences be
tween a hat day nnd n cold one.
Mr. Smith wore n cap which was his own,
bloomers which belonged to his friend Hunt
and n striped sweater which had been loaned
him by an nthletlc young woman who boards
where ho does. He looked real cute.
Hut the sweater was a thick one nnd Mr.
Smith warmed rapidly ns ho rode. Ho noted,
too, with sonio nstnnlshmcnt that his skin
seemod Irrltntod wherovor the sweater
touched It, and hy tho time thoy started
back from Florento ho was fairly burning
with an Itch thut ho couldn't account for.
Ho lunudlbly remarked to himself that ho
would give a thousand dollars to scratch
himself and later raised tho offer to twenty-five
thousand. Twice he attempted to rub
himself from outsldo tho torturing garment
without tho girl noticing, but wns caught
both times and given surprised looks that
nearly sent him off his balance.
Finally, when ho could enduro It no
longer ho grow desperately enthusiastic over
handicap blcyclo racing and porsuaded tho
girl to tako three minutes start for a mile
race, which he agreed to win or buy a
box of Downey's best, Bcforo tho young
woman had been thirty seconds on tho trail
Mr. Smith had wriggled out of his madden
ing garment nnd was scratching for dear Itfo
whllu Mnrs winked and Venus blushed at
his naked and Inflamed breast nnd arms.
Hut Mars and Vonus woro not tho only
stars In the heavens nnd among tho oth
ers there was ovldently one pnrtlcularly un
lucky for Mr. Smith, for as ho stood nnd
combed himself with his fingernails a truck
farmer drovo near with n colt that was
skittish nnd scorned unfamiliar with statu
ary, either animate or marble. It pranced
violently to 0110 eldc 11 1 sight of Mr. Smith
and nearly emptied tho wagon of tho old
man who wns driving. Mr. Smith, being u
ltutghtly young man and feeling In
a measure to blame, offerod his
assistance. Tho old man sug
gested that ns tho colt was dangerously
near the wire fence and tho wagon tilted
at a decided nnglo nno should take the
reins nnd tho other get nt the nnlmnl's
head to got him quieted and Into tho road
again. Obviously Mr. Smith was not tho
one to get nt his hend, bo ho climbed Into
tho wagon while tho owner went forward.
Hut tho owner's foot slipped, ho rolled
over tbo little embankment ami tho colt,
doubly alarmed nt tho strange commotion,
gnvo a mighty leap nnd started down tho
road, zlg-ingglng wildly, nnd with Mr.
Smith tugging Impotently nt tho reins. It
was thrilling, even picturesque, was tho
sight of that tall young man with Apollo's
figure, clad nbnvn the waistline In only a
flimsy undorshlrt. loose down tho front,
standing up In the Jolting wagon, Jerking
tho Hues madly nnd nlternatlng "Whoa
horsey" with "dnmsuchabrute."
Mr. Smith wanted to lot go, but couldn't,
nnd ho wanted to got out, but couldn't.
The colt had stnylng qualities and never
rlncltened in speed. That specter of the
night flow along tho quiet country road and
llnally did Just what Mr. Smith least de
siredovertook tho girl on tho bicycle.
Sho was leaning over her wheel, ns close
as possible to tho fence and when sho saw
her escort dash by In that rig and In that
npparel, or moro properly thnt lack of ap
parel, the horrors of ghost stories nnd
childish hobgoblins faded Into Insignificance.
Sho didn't know whether to laugh or cry
but decided that whlchover sho did had
better bo done at home and before tho
rumbling had died out down one fork of
tho road she was pedaling for dear Ufa
along another, which was the shortest
route Into Omahn,
Mr. Smith came home hy a longer route
nnd Stewart connected safety and scored on'
Hone's wild throw to catch McAndrews at
first. Toman hit a hlsh one to "Hoot, Mon"
McCrecdlo nnd It was nil over.
The visitors camo right buck st tis In th
second, tlclng the score. Ilraehrur got In
front of tho ball nnd took llrst, went to sec
ond on Inw's hit nnd crossed the plate on
Cockman's long fly to Uenlns. In tho sec
ond they made themselves obnoxious by
getting In two doubles In succession, after
one out, but that was all Just one run
but It left them one to the good. After that
the "Wizard" braced up and shut them out
for the balanco of tho game.
Oenlns distinguished himself by taking
two long flics from Whlttrldge'a hat nfter
hard runs. In fact, the entire loenl team
put up as pretty a game as one could wish
to see.
Mow It llnpmiPd.
Yesterday's game was tho last on the
local grounds for three weeks and was wit
nessed by n great crowd. Score:

KANSAS CITV. Aug. U.-In n. doub'c
header here today, the locals nddi d tvo
victories, Including nnother shutom, 1
their credit. Wolfe's pitching aid iho
ragged playing of the visitors In the last
nnd many hours later. Ho had restored
the farmer's colt nnd wagon without seri
ous damage to anyone or anything con
cerned, but his chest still burned and In
his toul was a thirst for blood the blood
of Guyer, his roommnte. For Mr. Smith
had at last figured out the connection be
tween Ouycr, the absence of a pepper
shaker from tho dinner table that evening
and the mighty Itching that had como upon
him when ho warmed up In that sweater!
And the girl? Well, Mr. Smith hasn't
been over there yet.
Thrifty .tlr. ClcrU.
For ten years or moro he had rervrd tho
Postofflcc department of the United States
government at Omaha faithfully. His
steady habits and strict attention to busi
ness had become a proverb In the office,
so that everyone was surprised when they
heard tho postmaster request him to step
Into the private ofhco for a short time.
Several times had such requests been made
In tho same tone and with tho snmo ap
pearance of Indifference to be followed
shortly with tho announcement that tho
person called Into tho office wns found
short In his accounts or had been unfaithful
to tho trust reposed In him. Ono or moro
of the men thus called up were at thnt
tlmo In prisons, where tholr cupidity had
led them and the first knowledge that their
fellows had that anything was wrong was
when the postmaster or his assistant had
called them Into tho prlvnte office.
So speculation was rife. "Tho last man
wo ever thought would ho investigated,"
snld ono.
"I will not believe It, no mntter what
they say," responded ono of tho fomalo
clerks.
Tho regular routine of tho office was dls
organized. One clerk suddenly had Im
portant business In the oluco of tho assist
ant postmaster. When there he strained
his ears nnd on his return reported to his
nwnltlng fellows that " Is up for
something nbout a check, for I heard the
assistant postmaster talking to him and
was asking him nbout it." This frngmont
renewed tho comments of the clerks and
when tho clerk In question camo out of
the office and resumed his usual work they
could hardly believe their eyes.
Whllo the clerk was In tho private office
this conversation occurred:
"Wo nnd on looking over tho list of
checks for wnges paid that your cheek for
that month Is not among them. Our rec
ords show that It was Issued to you nnd wo
do not understand why It has not been
paid."
"That Is easily explained," replied the
clerk, "for I have never cashed It. You
see when tho Ocrman Savings bank failed
I had J400 In It and I am resolved never
to trust a bank ngaln. Tho United States
Is good enough for me, even If I do not
get Interest, so whenever I have a check
that I ran save I Just nio It nway. You
will find several other checks In tho
samo condition since that one. Now
If I must cash It I can do so, but I be
lieve that my money Is safer where It Is."
Inquiry among other employes developed
the fact that several of them had taken
this means of saving money nnd that
nn Increnslng number of checks are being
held out by federal employes who would
rather sacrifice Interest on their money
to bo assured of absolute safety for tholr
funds.

sojourn. Mr. Mugglesby took tho hint nnd
bought a package of sen-sen.
Yesterday Mrs. Mugglesby came down to
her husband s office and was alone. Ho
seemed surprised.
"Whoro's uncle?" he demanded.
"I left him nt home. He said he believed
he would rather nnp than come down when
It Is so war"
"Thunder!"
"Why, Tom. What's tho matter?"
"Oh, nothing, only I ordered a fresh
cargo of 'tonic' sent up this afternoon,
thinking tho coast would be clear whllo
ho was down hero with you. Now he will
hear tho man carrying It down tho back
steps nnd the stuff will bo nil off when wo
get home. He will como the Carrto Nntlon
on It I expect, the minute he sees the ease."
Mr. and Mrs. Mugglesby rode home In
nervous silence. When they got In front
of the house Mr. Mugglesby said ho guessed
ho would saunter on up to the corner nnd
get n cigar nnd Mrs. Mugglesby said she
guessed ho wouldn't. Sho conjectured that
ho would go right on In with her and help
fnco tho music. And ho did. Ho felt like
n candidate nbout to tnko tho Oriental and
he had visions of an Irate nnd outraged old
gentleman executing n sundnnco on tho
kitchen floor, tomahawking a fresh bottio
every trip around but ho pushed the door
open anyhow.
Undo Obadlah was there, but ho had
no tomahawk. Ho waa sitting nt one sldo
of n smnll tnblo In the kitchen. Opposite
him snt n young man whom Tom had hired
to tidy up tho hack yard. On tho tablo
between them stood four bcor bottles empty
nnd two moro that had reached low tide.
Thero wns also a plato of cheese and some
cookies that Mrs. Mugglesby was saving
(or had Intended to save) for n later occa
sion. When Mr. and Mrs. .Mugglesby en
tered Undo Obadlah was reaching ncross
tho tnblo. earnestly tapping "the hired
mnn" on tho hrenst ns ho explained tho
reedtcknlus folly of trying to mnke good
grass grow In clay soli.
"Why, Uncle!" gasped Mrs. Mugglesby
when sho saw tho layout.
"Why, Uncle!" sniggered Mr. Mugglesby.
Tho person addressed nroso with n pleased
smile and, whilo tho young man was mak
ing n tumultuous getaway, remarked: "Hy
Jlng, folks, this Is tho best Irrlgatln' my
old throat has had slnco tho Kansas City
convention Inst summer. I been tnkln' a
nip or two at tho saloon nround tho
corner every dny since I been here, but I
wont eiiHy for fear you folks was temper
ance. I most yelled when I seo that
brewery's hnnd come luggln' In that ense
this nfternoon. Let's open n couplo more
bottles nnd lommc buy the next load."
Last night when they wero alone Mr.
Mugglesby said to Mrs. Mugglesby: "Hore
nfter, my dear, wo'll take tonic when wo
please and risk It's being all right with
whoever Is around. I'm convinced that
these Kansns folks aro Just ns pnrched ns
they look."
"It Snim.lx to Me."
H. K. Hownrd, city salesmnn for a local
Jobbing hotiBe, learned something about Juy
blrds during tho recent hot spell.
Ono of tho warm mornings when Mr.
Hownrd wns sprinkling his lawn ho heard
a Jay crying In evident excitement. Tho
noise did not pleaso him and ho endeavored
to scare the bird away by turning a stream
of water from tho hoso upon It. The bird
was nt some distance when It was struck
by tho wntor, but Immediately upon feeling
tho cooling spray It censed Its cries nnd ap
proached closer to tho mnn. For several
minutes tho bird enjoyed tho bnth nnd then
flew awny. In n few moments It returned
with another Jay nnd began to cry. Again
Mr. Howard turned tho hoso upon tho
birds and both of them seemed to revol
In the btream. Ho then thought he would
seo how much water the birds would stand
and started tho stream to playing upon
them at greater force. Tho birds braced
themselves for tho spray nnd stood up
under tho stream at almost full power.
After having enough water they flow away,
but the next day were nn hand at tho
samo hour and brought the other members
of tho trlbo In that neighborhood,
During the hot days at least fifty blue
Jays made dally visits to tho Howard home
for their bath from the hydrant and sprink
ling the Jays came to bo at much of a
routine as sprinkling the lawn.

Statement,
CHICAfiO. Aug. 11. At the Chicago
Yncht club tonight the Judges of the In
tornntlonl yacht race for tho Cnnnda's cup
gnve out the nstonishiiu; announcement that
Cadillac, tho defender, may Increase the
base of Its fore triangle four nnd thirty-six
one-hundredths feet. This Is n correction
with n vengeance nnd all ynchtsmen will .
quickly realize tho great difference It wilt
make. It mentis that Cadillac enn enrry
out Its bowsprit four foot nnd four Inches,
thereby Increasing the area of Its Jib by
about n hundred squnre feet and can In
crease the length of Its spinnaker boom by
four feet four Inches and consequently
can set a much larger spinnaker.
Whether advantage will be taken of the
opportunity to Increase the nrca of Cadil
lac's head sail Is problematical, because
It might affect the boat's helm and bo
detrimental. It Is a ccrtnlnty thnt Cadillac
will carry a larger splnnnker, which will
be a great advantage In windward and
leeward work, nnd Judging from tho snven
knot frco run In Saturday's triangular race
Cadillac needs It.
Tho announcement has caused much crit
icism of tho Judges and Measurer Cothroll,
particularly as the announcement comes
nfter the race has been sailed. The articles
of agreement Insist that tho ynchts shall
be measured not less than two days bo
fore the first race, hut the measuring
was not completed until tho morning of the
first rnce, which, followed by the announce
ment today, has caused unfavornblo com
ment. It has been known nil day thnt nomo
wrangle over the measurements has been
going on. Ono explanation Is that the
measurer mode a big blunder. Another Is
that tho challenger has been found to ex
ceed tho limit of thirty-live feet racing
length, ns computed by the rules of the
Yncht Racing union of the Croat Lakes,
and that Commodore tloudcrhnm of tho
Koyal Canadian Yacht club has been forced
to make a concession to tho defender,
so as to equalise the racing lengths of tho
two yachts. What the real reason Is tho
ofllclals steadily refuse to Bay.
A. H. Hnss of Morgantown, Inn., had to
get up ten or twelve times In the night nnd
had soverc backache nnd pains In the kid
neys. Wns cured by Foley's Kidney Cure.
