The Eastern League.

At yesterdays meeting of the Eastern
Base Ball League the Yonkers club was
dropped from membership in the league.
having been elected only to fill in the latter
part of the season.
Applications for franchises were read
from Scranton, Rochester, Paterson,
Bridgeport, Reading, Fail River and To-
roEto, but no definite action was taken In
either case.
1t is expected a representative from New
ark will be present today to argue in favor
of that city being admitted to the league.
There is disposition on the part of
the league to purchase the Erie club and
allow the club to retire. If this plan is
carried through 1t will make three vacan-
cies in the league, the other two being
Scranton and Yonkers.
The rumor that Springfield will with
draw from the league was denied. On the
other hand 1t is claimed Springfield is de-
sirouS of remaining in the league.

Foot Hall Largely ~ Fad.

From the New, Yovk Sun
Leaving all minor discussions out of the
question, it would really be of interest to
find out exactly how many spectators Of
the game know anything at all about the
playing that is going on before them. The
game is infinitely more difficult than base
ball to understand and follow and the
scientific points, called, are a sealed
book to the great majority of the specta-
tors If the opinions of dozen unpreju-
diced newspaper writer's upon the sport
were gathered it is highly probable that
they would decide that not more than -
per cent of the people who look at a foot
ball game have any idea at all of the scien-
tifc points of the contest about which they
talk gJibly. There is 4 pretty well de-
fined opinion abroad that foot ball for the
past two seasons has partaken in a very
large measure of the nature of a fashion
able fad.

A Charge Answered,

TWAS very freely stated in some quarters
that the difficulty with the Coxeyites
would never have occurred ii it had not
been for the encouragement given them by
the citizens Of Yakima, says the Seattle
Telegraph. A statement like this sent
abroad over the whole country was mani
testify unfair to the large majority OF the
residents OF Yakima, but color was given
10 ii by the arrest of number ofthem. OF
the eighteen brought before the court all
but one were discharged upon the showing
made by the prosecution. This very ef-
fectually disposes OF the claim that there
was any popular demonstration at Yak
ina to encourage resistance to the off,
GERS Of the law. This fact ought to be
given publicity equally as wide as that
received by the charge against the citizens
of Yakima, and it gives the Telegraph
much pleasure to do what ii can in that
way, although We must add that the Tele.
graph did not seek to place the RESPONSE
bility for the trouble upon those citizens.
1t is matter OF regret that there seems
to be no redress for the injustice which
has been done to the Yakima people who
were put to the inconvenience of answer
ing for their alleged conduct. Theoreti-
cally there is no wrong without q rem
edy, but il there is any redress Tor a man
who has been uniustly called upon to
answer proceeding for contempt we are
not aware where il is to be sought.

"The Thousands of Citizens,

The eagerness with which some OF
the newspapers "a Of this state print
driveling rot pertaining to the recent
Coxey army disturbance in this city is
disgusting and inexplicable. The follow
ing, from the Snohomish Democrat, is a
fair sample of a prevailing complaint in
certain quarters and lines of business Of
Washington paresis:
"The United States marshals are loud
in their denunciation of the citizens Of
Yakima for encouraging the Coxeyites
in resisting the officers and forcing ride
on the train. The marshals say that the
were law-abiding until
the cries Of "set the brakes" "kill the
marshals," came thick and fast from the
thousands Of citizens who had assembled
to see the fight. And yet the big fellows
down at Washington city say that Coxey
don't represent the people. AS it is at
Yakima 80 it is all over the country. A
revolution is upon US. Let ii be settled
by the ballot"

the air like parcel Of drunka ards, all the
while uttering she most comical squeaks.
They did not have long to squeak, how.
ever, for the boys gathered them up and
threw them into bags. The first day
they gathered two bushels OF drunken
sparrows. Three or four days later the
experiment was repeated with almost
equal success, and from time TO time
since. They made excellent potpie, but
the survivors have come to regard the

GEOLOGY OF EAST WASHINGTON.
How Lake Cheian and the GRAM
Couiee Came 90 Extss

The principal formation in Central
Washington is great series OF lava
sheets wi ich have been outpoured in sue
cessive eruptions in such quantities as to
completely conceal the relief OF the land
which was inundated by the fiery flood.
This series Of lava sheets is OF such vast
extent that il is the equivalent Of some
OF the most important systems Of sedi-
mentary rocks. 1t extends south from
Washington into Oregon and California,
and east into Idaho. It's entire extent is
unknown, but is thought TO cover not
less than 100000 square miles to an av-
erage depth Of about 1000 feet. Il is the
greatest lava sheet now known. The rock
is principally il not wholly basalt, which
came to the surface through assures and
was spread out in successive flows at in.
tervals throughout long period of time,
as is shown by fossil forests Enclosed be-
tween the layers at number OF horizons.
AT one time a great glacier filled the
valley now occupied by Lake Chelan
another descended Okanogan valley and,
crossing the Columbia, spread out sheet
Of moranial material and thousands Of
boulders over the northern part of
Douglas county. The Columbia river
was damned by these glaciers and es-
capped southwark through the grand cou.
lee. The glaciers from the north ended
in large lake, the northern shore OF
which crossed the central part of Douglas
county, and which is known as Lake
Lewis. Icebergs floating on this lake
carried their freight Of boulders over the
great plain Of the Columbia and into
many valleys opening from it.
The conclusions reached by geologi.
cal examination OF the central portion of
Washington are in general not favorable
to the view that large portion of the
central part of the state can be irrigated
by artesian water.
