It seems to be Tom Longboat's
rule to lose a "small" race just be
fore he is to appear in a champion
ship affair. Is this what is called the
Indian sign?
Those who followed Bill Abstein's
work at Providence last season say
that William will have to carry a
little more pepper with him if he
makes good with Pittsburg.
The cover design for the Indiana
polis score card the coming season
shows an Indian hiding in the Rocky
Mountains. Evidently Charlie Carr
thinks the going is to be pretty rough
in the American association.
The Springfield team in the Three-
I league is to be put on the block and
sold to the highest bidder. Selling
ball players is as old as Jake Beck
ley, but this auction of an entire
team is surely an innovation.

same handicap, a wooden leg. The
contest might be worth seeing, at
that.
Last August $1100 was subscribed
by the Nashville baseball fans for
their Southern league champions,
but when the sum was turned over
there was a little shyness in the
number of bucks —some 800 short.
It seems a majority of the fans had
stepped in frost.

"CHEWS" TOBACCO WITH GUSTO.
Whimsical Fowl of Ohio Demands
"Cud" of Certain Brand.—Pro
duces Non-Nicotine Eggs.
(Associated Press.)
Youngstown, Feb. 6. —The saltiest
old salt that sails the sea does not
love a chew of tobacco better than
does a hen owned by Burt Miller, a
lawyer of this city. For more than a
year the hen, which was always in
ustrious and remunerative, has re-
fused to lay her customary egg each
jday unless her system is toned by
j tobacco. So, each day Mr. Miller sets
j before her a oan of chewing tobacco
• and she takes a chew. The word
■"chew" is figurative, of course, noth
ing is rarer than hen's teeth. This
j hen pecks at the tobacco in the can,
plainly with great enjoyment, and,
; after holding it in her mouth awhile,
i ejects it.
The love of tobacco must be an ac
quired taste for a hen, just as are
caviar ar 1 olives for a man. Mr.
Miller thinks his hen acquired the
taste by eatin; cuds of tobacco which
she found on his grounds after his
hired man had no further use for
them. The hen will chew only the
best fine cut of one particular brand.
She has refused to taste samples of
other brands sent to her by their
manufacturers, who may have had
in mind the value of an advertise
ment reading: "Even hens are not
happy until they get our 'baccy.' "
Mr. Miller tried to cure his hen of
the habit by giving her a "tobacco
cure." It had no effect on her, how
ever efficaciors it may be on humans.
This hen's eggs have not the slight
est taste nor odor of nicotine, but are
strictly fresh.
