How hate my wealth-what weight it

He might have sent me flower or two;
But of course. dear fellow, he never dreams
OF the pangs and heartache feel the while

yet somehow thought the bright new year
Would bring me message or friendly
sign
I longed SO for some little token dear
To keep forever and ever miner
Then breathless, blushing. she sees balf-hid,
A sealed white letter her gifts amid.
She kissed it thrice ere she smiling read

OMAHA, Jan. 16.-The team that will
strive for the pennant next season will
be composed of few of last years men,
and while we mourn the loss of that UNI
equaled twirler, Kid Nichols; the liking
Of the second bag" Jack Crooks; the
"stone wall" catcher, Nagle, and that
clever and greatest of all-around play

Leonard leads us TO believe that the
new men signed by him will be fit SUBJ
stitutes for the missing ones. While
the subject of new and more centrally
located grounds has not been definitely
settled. it is generally conceded that if
President Mccormack can by any
means in his power secure them
the pennant-Winners of go will be
cheered at in victory or hooted at in de-
feat on the new grounds. The addi-
ton, Or rather return of Kansas City to
its first love, is hailed with delight by
all, as il certainly adds strength to the
association. The team that will open
the season for tho City of the Kaw will
be most formidable one, and will add
much interest TO the fight.

We're playing at the time that the fuss
took place, although several of the boys
were standing around watching the

youth, but he did not know as much
about the great American game called

and three diamonds, and not knowing
just how 10 discard he showed his
hand to Manager Sutton, who told him
what to do. and SUITS pointer proved
to be a good one, but Alberts reached
over and took the checks, although
Freeman's hand was the best. An
angry war of words ensued. and Free
man smashed Alberts in the mouth and
knocked ont several teeth. Sutton in
terfered, and after everything had
quieted down, he took Alberts to one
side and told him that if he did not give
Freeman good licking he would
fine him $50 for cowardice.
AlbertS said that he would smash the
pitcher whenever IN opportunity pre-
scented itself. The other members of
the team kept telling Alberts to watch
out for Freeman, and vice versa. A

STILL AFTER CROOKS.
A Prohibitory Price Put Upon His
Release


COLUMBUS, o.. Jan. 1s.-The Boston
league club wired the Columbus direct
ors to know what they would take for
the release of Crooks, Mari and Reilly.
The answer was: 'Will take $4,000
for Crooks" A message has been re-
ceived saying that they would take the
matter under consideration. 1t was not
thought here that any further attention
would be paid to the large sum men,
toned. 1t isn't likely, however, that a
just received letter from Crooks in
which he reaffirms his allegiance to the
Columbus club and his intention to stick
to it through thick and thin. Although
the Boston league club would pay him
more salary than Columbus could afford
to. he still insists that he would prefer
playing here. at least for the present.
