comprises well-populated, conveniently To-
Gated cities, its teams are strong and well
balanced, and its clubs are fairly well of
financially. II is also exceptionally fortu-
nate in being without the territory in which
the present upheaval Is at work. 1t is, in
fact, the strongest minor league in the coun-
try, and presents many advantages not en-
joyed by the American association. II the
latter as well as the Players league should
go TO the wall, the Western association will
be the only organization to stand between

right to equal representation on the board of
arbitration, a right the combined minor
leagues by united action could aud should

mentioned excellent journal got Its clue from
The BEE or not, but that is Just what The
Bee has asserted q score of times, and as
frequently urged upon the slow. moving
Western association moguls the necessity of
demanding their rights, as suggested in the

Mandan by imp. Cliff Gladstone, q full
brother to Paul. Mr.. Mason is exceedingly
anxious to recover her. as she is really a
magnificent dog. Her sister, Kate Mandan,

years old. Goldsmith Maid reigned queen of

unbeaten until 1878. when Rarus went a mile

Entertaining Visitors From Chicago.

Cash Clarke, adescendant of Munchausen,
and an ardent sportsman, and Sportie Billie
Willie Maeuer, escorted a couple of Chicago
friends over into Iowa one day last week on
a rabbit aunt. Clarke said he knew where
there was a patch where the rabbits were so
thick that at the crack Of a gun they'd jump
up in droves. Magner verified this by ad-
ding that he was down there a week ago last
Sunday and stood on a stump aud killed
fifty-eight with a sword ia a single hour as
they galloped by himl Well, the party was
gone all day long, returning late that night
frozen and half starved, with a single, soli-
tary cottontail, blind In one eye, a little con-
sumptive animal, so thin that you could see
through him. And this one of the Chicago men
ran in a fence corner and beat to death with
q rail it was so weak it couldn't get away.
They say the next time they go out with
Clarke and Magner that some one will be
accidentally killed, that's all.

Tin Hurst, the pugilistlc umpire, is out

The Sporting News of ST. Louis, which
has been slurring the Western association,
probably Inadvertently, does the amende hon
orable In an editorial this week in response
to a complaining letter from Dave Rowe. 1t
says: "Personally the editor of The Sport
ing News has never knowingly abused the
Western association. IL was the west of
which the Western association is part and
parcel that first recognized the merit of The
Sporting News and which helped boom it on
to a successful issue. Naturally, therefore.
the editor of The Sporting News has a warm
place in his heart for the Western associa-
ton, and if between the lines that body has
been abused through this paper it has been
through accident rather than through any
other cause. In the future we will try and
watch the corners more closely and soc that
in these columns nothing is said OF the West
ern association except that which will broaden
its areas and make it as great, If not greater.

the advice rendered. and accept the same in
