TWIN CITY LEAGUE GOES,
Minneapolis Mines Anxious to Join
the New Association.

The Twin City Junior ball league re-
ceived healthy boom last evening
when about fifteen Of the amateur
players of Minneapolis gathered and
talked the matter over. There was no
trouble in securing enough strong
clubs, the main trouble being to keep
the number of clubs down. 1t was de-
cfded to organize the proposed league
and the following clubs were listed:
Syracuse, backed by the A. A. Hansen
Cycle company, o Flaskerd, manager;
Thistles, backed by the Thistle Cycle
company, H. w. Hogue, manager;
Monte Carloes, H. B. Forrest, manager;
South Side High School Juniors, E.
Rice, manager; Comets, r. Sullivan,
manager. The list will be reduced to
four clubs eventually. The players
will all be under eighteen years of age,
but the clubs will be strong amateur
organizations. The Pickett Juniors
and the Baldwins will probably be two
of the st. Paul clubs in the league. A
committee was appointed to confer
with the representatives. of the ST.
Paul organizations and arrange joint
meeting when officers will be elected

ference with the undergraduate Off

After the meeting Mr.. Di Sibour stated
that no action will be taken by Yale
in regard to the proposition to enter
the race between Harvard, Columbia,
Pennsylvania and Cornell, nor would
the winner of that race be challenged
by Yale. There will be decided changes
in Yale's stroke this year. Formerly
the men have. trained for a. .four-mile
race, but now they will alter the
stroke to suit course of only mile

invalid the legislative apportionment

case came up from Sullivan county
and involved the appointment act of
1893, passed by Democrats This also
goes down as unconstitutional. BY a.
former decision, the apportionment for
1891 and 1879 were found invalid. To-
days decision makes it necessary to go
back to the act of 1885, which is the
last apportionment act passed that has
not been successfully attacked. The
decision suggests that special ses-
sion of the legislature might be called
to remedy the situation, which has
become chaotic by today's decision
The legislature is Republican, and Gov
Matthews has said that he would not

Russian Coronation Ceremonies Closely
Resemble Those of the Old Empire.
Only those who have studied BY.
zantine history can have any idea Of
how closely the ceremonial of the Mos
cow coronation resembles, even in it's
minutest details, that which used to be
observed at the coronation of the By
zantine emperors, says the London
Chronicle. Although the Russian
church did not separate from that Of
Rome until the twelfth century-that
is,nearly 400 years later than the schism
Of Photius, which rent the western and
eastern churches asunder-neverthe-
less it retained it's oriental rite. In
1854 a Russian commission arrived in
Byzantium to study the etiquette and
ceremonial, ecclesiastical and profane,
of the court and church of that cap
ital. On their return to their native
country great change took place In.
the national costume, architecture and
ceremonial. When Moscow became the
sacred city par excellence of the en-
pire the kremlin was rebuilt on the
same lines as the Blachernae palace,
on the land walls of Constantinople.
Like its Greek model, it consists Of
series of halls and OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES,
as the Turks call them-linked to-
gether by gardens and interspersed
with scores of churches and monster
les, the whole surrounded by wall
and entered by strongly fortified gates,
above which were icons of the virgin
and saints. Burnt down early in the
century, it has been rebuilt in palmer
architecture, but on the same Byzan-

ISN'T IT WONDERFUL

How the creeping grasses grow,
High on the mountains rocky brink,
In the valleys down below?

Crushed by the feet that pass
But all the dwarfs and giants tail,
Working till Doomsday-shadows fall.

Out of the earth new life will drink.
And carefully upward creep?

The germ of flower or weed
Ent all earth's workmen. laboring.
with all the help that wealth could bring,
Never could make a seed.
Isn't II wonderful when you think.
How the wild bird sings his song,
Weaving melodies, link by link,
The whole sweet summer long?
Commonplace is bird, always,
Everywhere seen and heard
But all the engines of EARTH l say,
Working on till the Judgment Day,
Never could make q bird.
Isn't it wonderful when you think.
How little baby grows.
From his big round eyes, that wink and
blink,
Down to his tiny toes?
Common thing is baby. though
All pray the baby's part
But all the whrling wheels that go;
Flying round while the ages flow.
Can't make a baby's heart.
