In this excerpt from Billy Whiskers by Francis Trego Montgomery, Tom and Stubby Standish prepare for a perilous aeroplane flight with Butter the cat as a surprising passenger.

Babe Pinelli Emerges As Top Red Third Baseman Candidate

Cincinnati fans weigh Babe Pinelli as the best third baseman the Reds boast. Henry Knight Groh had believed his departure left a void, and Pinelli aims to prove perseverance pays off. Pinelli, born Pinaldo Paolinnelli of San Francisco, began with the White Sox, then Tigers, before Cincinnati acquired him for 30000 dollars and players last winter. In 19 with Oakland he hit .239 and ranked second in fielding at his position with a .98 mark.

Dinner Stories and a Humble Sauce of Humour

A faded tale recounts John D Rockefeller giving a little girl a car ride and joking he would take her to heaven, only to be gently teased about gasoline. Other vignettes include Ruth and Marjorie visiting a doll friend and debating supper, plus estate keepers awaiting a shooting feast and a tenant farmer’s uneasy compliment. The column closes with a recipe for Rice Waffles using rice, eggs, butter, milk, flour and baking powder.
