National League President.
MADE HIS OWN RECORD
President Byrne Tells Why the Next
League Meeting WIFI be Held in
ChicagO-Philadelp Not satisfied
With the Scheduie-BudgetOf Of Live
and Interesting Baseball Notes.

The bright and redeeming feature of the
meeting OF the League magnatcs in New
York was the testimonial to President N. E.
Young. Presentation speeches. as a rule,
are apt to be purely perrunctory-a rounding
up of pleasant ad1ectives meant to tickle
the ear: but in Mr.. soden's address there
was an impressive air of sincerity that
awakened a responsive chord OF good fel
lowship among those present.
Mr.. Soden said, In part: Thine. in its
onward march, brings to every permanent
organization some important occasion. re-
calling some notable event that deserves
especial attention. Such an eveutful period
has come to our association, and we are
assembled at this time to congratulate Mr..
Young, and celebrate with him the fact that
for twenty-five consecutive years he has
served professional baseball as its valued
secretary, its truthful historian. and the
trustworthy keeper OF its records.
II remember, as If ii were yesterday,
my first meeting with Secretary Young.
and the warm grasp OF bis hand. and his
cordial words OF welcome impressed me
most favorabiy, and l am IaIpy TO state
that nearly twenty years OF continued
association with him has confirmed the
correctness OF my first impressions, and
increased my estimate OF his ability and
worth.
at is not my purpose TO attempt any
eulogy OF Mr.. Young, or to endeavor to
extol his many virtues. He has made his
own record. and no words OF mine can add
new luster to the briliancy OF that record.
Permit me, however. to state that in Mr..
Young VIC have an accomplished gentle
man, courteous and affable; faithful and
conscientious official; a wise counselor;
an able diplomat; an Honest man, and one
OF Gods noblemen.
ITO Know Mr.. Young is to hold bim in
high rcpute, and wherever he is known he
stands forth a conspicuous example of
honesty and integrity. We unite
In the sincere wish that for many years
you may look back upon this occasion with
pleasurabIy emotions, and that each time
you make use OF this service it may reaffirm
TO you our lasting confidence and enduring
friendship"

THE PUEBLO WOMEN.

"The Pueblo Indian women arc often
very pretty as girls, and some of them
make stately young mothers" writes
Hamlin Garland in the Ladies' Home
Journal. "They work generally il
groups of three or four, cooking,
whitewashing, weaving or painting
pottery. They seem to have good
deal to chatter about, and their smil-
ing faces are very agreeable. They
have most excellent white teeth. Their
ceremonial dress is very picturesque,
especially the costume Of the Acoma
and Isleta girls. All burdens arc car
ried by the women Of Acoma, lsleta
and Laguna upon the head, and they
have, in consequence, magnificent
carriage, even late in life. The old
women of Walpi, on the contrary,
are bent and down-looking. They
carry their burdens on their backs
slung in blanket. The girls Of Isleta
wear light cloth over their heads
Spanish fashion, and manage it with
fine grace and coquetry. The every
day dress of the Hopi women con-
sists of sort of kilt, which is
wrapped around tho hips and fastened
with belt "a modification of the

Their hair is carefully tended, but is
worn in an ungrnceiul mode by some
Of the women. The women OF Iano
cut the hair in front Square across
about to the line Of the lips, while the
back hair is gathered into II sort of
billet. Tho front hair hangs down
over the face, often cOncCuling one
