The new American Association of base
hall clubs which was organized in Phiia-
delphia on Thursday has fine opportunity
for success and fortune before ii If the agree
ment entered into by the members is kept
with anything like fidelity. Three articles
of this document will universally commend
the organization to the lovers of the ma
ttonal game, and these are the moderate
price of admission to games, the prohibition
OF the transfer of games from one city 70
another in defiance of the adopted sched-
ule, and the buying or selling of ball-play-
ers by or from one club and another. The
whole field of possibility in the national
championship contest just closed was
changed by the purchase of the strong
players on the weaker clubs by their richer
adversaries. The effect of the sale of
Meekin and Farrell to the New York club
upon the standing of the Washington nine
was admittedly disastrous, taking away
from the local club its main strength in
playing qualities as well as that inspiring
influence that exercised SO valuable an eff
feet upon the other men on the team. The
wisdom of the new association in deciding
to adopt schedule that will not conflict
with that of the League Is also commend
able, and if the promoters of the organiZa-
ton satisfy themselves with being man
ayers instead of magnates and devote their
attention to giving the public better quail
ity of the national game, free from the
vulgar rowdyism that has, unfortunately,
too predominately characterized the cham
pionship series during the last season, they
will find the American people appreciative
of their efforts to a substantially emphatic
degree. Washington is to have a team in
this new association. and as 1t will prob
ably maintain its representation in the Ma
uonal League, there will be base ball
enough and to spare during the coming
summer.

away. 1t seems as If our friend ia in
this church. l cannot bring myself to
think that he is dead. It comes to ma
ever so sweetly, that he has Just begun
to live The farewells at the door of
death often heroine greetings to the
realms of life, and 1 believe he will,
greet US and his loved ones who shed
these bitter tears upon his coffin. to
the summer land of the soul. The old
quartette with which he SO often suno
cannot sing to-day without hearing his
voice. He loved music, and | believe
his love is gratlfied to-day as never
before. You cannot look up and down
your streets without seeing John
Marsh. Every body knew him: every.
body loved him. Many a poor family
had better Christmas because he
lived. Many a weak man got strength
from him. His big heart shone out
through his genial countenance
Wherever you put him he worked.
Wherever he worked he left his mark.
That mark is seen everywh here in Kin
sley to-day. He was everybody's friend:
everybody was his friend. He was
philanthropic, generous, road, patri-
otto, and devoted to all good things,
and just as flowers are beautiful, not
Wlthstanding what country under the
sun they are grown ia, beautiful in
themselves. beautiful regardless OF the
soil and surroundings, beautiful re-
CARELESS of the system under which
they are raised, beautiful whether
raised BY book or free open culture.
so John Marsh's manhood was beauti-
full, it matters not how he raised it or
where; 1t matters not whether he fol-
lowed some book or raised it in the
freer atmosphere; it matters not
whether he obeyed some system or
followed his own heart. God admires
beautiful things in themselves. We
need not bubble over the system; we
III Ist admire the thing itself. God
loved John Marsh, and we loved John
Marsh. That love stands fIst-that
love lasts forever. That love unites
two worlds - that love ignores death.
Love is the crown and throne of crea-
ton, for God is love. The cross of
Christ is concentrated love and sacri-
flee. The Hottest word l can utter Of
my friend is, he loved.

THEisfa Is a GOD ISRAEL.

When Moses at the Lords command
Led Israel to the promised land,
Then many miracles did tell
''There was God in Israel"
And when they made the golden calf,
Worsbided it and had their laugh,
Soon, very soon he made them yell
''There is God in Israel
Now Jerry he is in command,
He's leader H. the peoples band,
And striking blows on foes that tell
There is a God in Israel"
And while he lectures through the land,
At every place he takes the stand,
The wondrouS crowds that greet him tel
There is Il God in Israeli
The ladies all come out to hear
The peoples champion so GEAR,
And weave their bright boqu,t is for him
Help cheer, and make the welkiu ring
NO more corruption in this state,
For rich alone to legislate.
The people by their votes will tell
There is II God in Israeli
Soon righteous laws VIII rule our land,
And rich and poor walk hand i'll hand,
Then will united voices tell,
And own 1.-The God Of Israel"
And when ''St. Peter at the gate,''
Shall usher i'll the good an1 great,
Jerry will he in thai crowd
And his greeting will be loud.
For he is spending strength and might,
In battling for the peoples right;
Among the angels free from sin
Jerry will be ushcr'd IN
insley, Kansas. C. P. W.

OUR SORROW.

The shadow of a great calamity rests
over this community in the death of
our mayor, John F. Marsh. Monday
night he started for home at $3.50
O'Clock and before he had gone two
hundred feet was confronted by two
fo0tpads, who ordered him to throw up
his hands. Marsh grappled the near
est man, receiving 80 ball through
the fleshy part of his left forearm,
throwing HIM partially around, when
his second assailant shot him with a
pistol of large caliber in the small of
the back, the ball passing through his
body and lodging under the skin of
the abdomen. The robbers ran i'm
mediately to their horses and made
their escape.
Friends carried Marsh home and
everything was done that it was posi-
BILE to do, to relieve his intense suffer-
ing, which continued until about 8
O'Clock Tuesday morning, when he
became unconscious and continued so
until 2 O'Clock p. M, when lie ceased to
breathe.

The position taken by Jack Wright
Oh the sand hill road question was
that any bill, the passage of which
would involve the expenditure of a
large amount of the peoples money,
should be accompanied by some form
of petition or Endorsement to show
that the people whose money was to be
spent approved of the measure, and
that until such evidence was presented
the bill should not have been passed.
In other words, the people should initi-
ate legislation and not individuals.
Those who have asserted that Mr..
Wright's position is different have Sim
ply misunderstood him.
From the best and latest auv1ces, we
give the followidg rs the recent his
tory of the two men who murdered
Mr.. Marsh, last MONDAY night: The,

arrived in Kinsley about p. m, Mon

back of the Read store. They were at
