R. PU. If the reply from the Montreal club is favorable, the ap- plication for the formation of an eastern group will be made to the union. The officers were not elected at the | meeting but a committee consisting of Stuart Robertson, H. C. Nickle, BE. Elliott and G. Matheson was appoint- ed to draw up the constitution and select a slate of officers, A commit- tee to select and order the equipment necessary for the club was also ap- pointed, consisting of E, Elliott, G. Matheson, A. Minnes, A. Cooke, and 8, Vanalstyne, It was pointed out that it will require at least $25 per man to outfit the team so that about $500 will be necessary. Bu as the club has already received from ten Supporters, subscriptions of $50 each, it is hoped that the club will be financially strong. Hugh Nickle, Jr., was appointed to be responsible for the canvass which will be made of for smaller sums. The secretary was also instructed to write the Queen's Athletic Board asking for the use of one of the dressing rooms at the stadium. It was also stated that the practices Would start the first week of Septem- ber, and that possibly the arena might be secured for the evening Practices for those who would not | be able to get out in the afternoons. A Fond Farewell. A commercial traveler arrived dome one day and said to his wife: "I have done something to-day that 11 ought to have done when I first started on the road. I have taken out an accident insurance policy on | my life. If I am killed the company | will pay you $5,000. If I am in- jured I get $5 a week." The next morning when he was ready' to start on his journey, his wife threw her arms around his neck and cried: "Now, John, for heaven's sake, whatever you do, don't get injured." ' Billy Evans and Jack Egan were once umpiring a game in which the players were unnecessarily dilatory. The catcher would stroll slowly out and converse with the pitcher, the third baseman would come over to the pitcher and say "What's your hurry? Got a date or somethin' Got all afternoon for this y' know," and every means the players would think of were taken to delay the game, Finally came an inning in which the players failed to pull any of their dilatory stunts, and Evans was just beginning to think that at last they were going to have an inning which would not be delayed when suddenly Egan, who was umpiring behind the plate, held up his hand and called time. Strolling slowly out along the first base line away from the players Jack then turned to Evans and said: "Come here, Billy." Evans walked over and joined Egan, saying: "For the love of Mike, Jack, what's the matter now? I was Just thinking we were going to get by an inning without a delay." "So was I, Billy," replied Jack. "Then an . idea just struck me. What's the use of us letting the Players get away with all of this? Let's have alittle chat." "What'll we talk about?" Billy, 'Well," answered Jack, are we gonna eat tonight?" "Harvey's is a good place," replied Billy, "let's do down there." "All right, what'll we eat?" Then the two umpires went over the whole menu served at Harvey's slowly checking off the various disn- es, while the ball game was being held up and the players and crowd Were yelling their disapproval. af- ter they had decided upon what they would eat that evening Egan turned and yelled for the announcer. That worthy grabbed his megaphone and raced across the diamond, thinking he had an important announcement to make, "Listen!" said Egan, as the an- asked "where BRINGING UP FATHER over the whole meal they wanted served. "Better get a piece .ot paper," Jack said, "and write it down." And the game was held up all the time the announcer was get- ting a piece of paper and noting down the dishes degired by the um- pires. Then Egan turned to the now wildly yelling crowd and said: "play ball!" That night Evans was sitting in the lobby of the hotel when he was approached by a well-dressed strang- er who said: "You're Mr. Evans, aren't you?" When answered in the affirmative the stranger said. "Well, I'm deeply interested in baseball, and especially the little side affairs that go on out there on the playing field. I was out at the game this afternoon, and I was very much interested in the Ft- tle conference you and Mr, Egan had during the game, as I was sure taere was some deep, technical problem concerning which 'you had to arrive at an immediate decision." "Yes," gravely replied Billy, "there was. It was a problem of so grave a nature that it must be kept a profound secret, and I'm sorry 1 can't tell you what it was, There are A Cordial Invitation To Disease This is an apt description of Con- stipation.

Contaariness of Modern Greek The modern Green has his own Queer way of doing things. For in- stance, the Greek who wishes to call a friend to his side, makes a gesture which, anywhere else in the world would be interpreted as a sign to 80 away. When he actually does wish his friend to go away, he bec- (kons. When one arrives in a Greek | city he must not expect people to call on him, but must do all the IT COSTS to look over our bi calling first himself, And in address- ing an envelope the Greek puts the "Esquire" before the name instead of after it. But strangest of all is the fact that when a Greek Says "nay" he means "yes." In almost all other languages the word beginning with "n'" is negative. But in Green the affirmative is "nay," the same word as the English one with exactly the opposite meaning. NOTHING g range of Suitings. All we ask is a chance to show them to you.
