AnSlin's great are Wilksie G.. dam of
Nellie A, 2:16Al, by Robert McGregor,
was the carrying o IA dead foetuS for
five or six days prior to foaling time.
The mare actually swelled and bursted.

circulating untruths about him. Christ
threatens to make it interesting for
Buckenberger at the next league meet
ing is he does not desistSn his at
tempts to show up der boss
Manager McClosky Of Louisville
thinks Oliver Pat Tebeau the best field
captain in the business today. There
is certainly no leader who is more in
the game than Tebeau and when it
comes TO knowing the rudiments of
the sport, who can give Patsy Boliver
pointers?
Tom Kinslow is feeling badly over
his release by PittSburg. He said re-
Gently: when 1 start drinking, which

his death, said: ION the morning of
his death, as was his usual habit he
came from the far end of the pasture
TO the watering trough, and, with his
little pony companion, started for OBJ
ervation Point. The men say he trot-
ted away just as he did for number
of years, and when he got to the eleya-
zion, after taking a last long look over
the vast Santa Clara valley, he fell
dead. His companion ran down 10
where the nlsn were, and when they
did not see julie with his they sur
missed something was wrong. On ar
irving at the summit, with his head
turned to the east, St Julien was lying
cold in death. The men reverenuy
dug a grave right there and gently low
cred all that remained of the old trot-
ting king TO his last lonely bed. \

A report comes from Pittsburg
which. If true, shows deplorable state
Of affairs in existence in the st. Louis
club. The report is 10 the effect that
the Browns are thoroughly democrat
lied. 4 contemporary. writing about
the matter, says: There are but three
men in the club who play the game as
if they wanted TO hold their positions,
and even the members of this trio
make no secret of their wish TO get
away from the present St Louis club.
Most of the boys, however. are openly
defiant, some Of them announcing that
they would not run across the lot TO
win game for Won der Abe. The
bitterness shown by them toward Won
der Abe Is something appalling. and
having now seen the spirit manifested
by the Browns Pittsburg cranks are
wondering how they WIN a game once
a month" II is well-known fact that
since Charlie ConiSkey gave up the
management Of the Browns there has
been dissatisfaction and contention in
the ranks Of the team. Won der Abe
is not liked by the men. but that is no
reason why they should not play ball.
There never has been any complaint
on the part OF the St Louis PLAYERS
that they did not receive their salaries.
and as that is the only inducement
that the men receive for playing ball
there appears u be 10 reason for
rebellion. Either Mr.. Won der Abe or
the league should take the matter OF
these players who are obtaining money
by false pretenses into their hands
Men have been blacklisted for life for
selling games and the men who play
dishonest ball just because they do not
like the man who is paying their sal
aries are almost as bad and should be
