the Northwestern league all

greatest pitcher of his inches
extant, lie is a Cuban and
undersized, but 1b said to
have more fool stuff thnn
Clark Griffith had in his
palmist days.
Rush Hall is tlie only man
ager in the Northwestern
who doesn't wear a uniform.
The other managers are Joe
McGinnity, Tealey Raymond,
Nick Williams, Hill Hurley
and Hob Bioxvn. Let's start
a petition asking Russ to don
a uni Just once. He could
induce 'loon extra fans to at
tend the game If he'd do it.
They do say—
That K. P. Hinlth Is the
original Tiger booster, and
That Jack McC'urmirk Is
sore because Al Wheeler
gete so nun h publicity, and
That Frank Naubert would

That those lads at Stadi

boys are eating It up, and
That a lot of the Tacoma
Miles hp|i»'hi- fresher since
they Installed a swimming
pool and showers In tlie

That today's Ladies' day

That if yon can't take your

There are only three who

preferably black.
But Cleopatra wore cloth of
gold; Lucrozia rich, silk velvets,
and Catherine, anything from
leathern hunting clothes to the
crown jewels and a wisp of
gauze.
Not one of the three was thin;
they were inclined to plumpness.
And their hunks of hair" were
luxuriant and glossy.
I am called the vampire of Hie
screen.
My rags are donned purposely,
when a William Fox scenario tails
for tbelli; my bones are covered;
and my hair is not f vank —I will

That William S. Hart, the star
of the stirring drama now at tho

to the life or the West is because

at an army post, he had set his

coming ISast to enter a military
academy, he drifted into acting.
