The American Association.

The American association has effect.
ed a temporary organization and its
promoters announce that a meeting
will be held in New York city to COM
plete its circuit and prepare for its in
ltiGi season. Its prospects of success
are problematical. From the start the
powerful National league and the al
lied minor leagues will be arrayed
against it. An immense amount Of
capital will be required to equip and
maintain eight teams with players up
to the standard Of the National agree
ment clubs in the cities OF its circuit.
The reserve rule will not be respected
and there will be strong competition
for the best talent. A base ball war
means division of the patronage and
no profit to those engaged i'll it. The
status of the new association is not as
yet we'll enough defined to warrant an
opinion as to its future. Newspaper
boosting will not make it succeed and
printed predictions of failure will not
bring disaster to it. When the circuit
Is selected the names Of the capitalists
behind the movement are divulged, and
the engagement Of players completed.
an intelligent forecast can be made.
The assertion that the National league
players will remain loyal to their re-
spective clubs is merely an expression
OF opinion. The American association
must get large percentage of its play
ers from the league ranks to entitle it
to liberal share of the patronage.

During my fourteen years Of hermit
life have run across many incidents
that prove that Wild animals compre-
bend the meaning Of death. Two years
ago I found the nest of wild" domes-

were three live kittens and one dead
enc. left the dead kitten as an ex-
pertinent. Whenever I had found a
nest before this, visit a few hours
later would find the nest deserted, the
kittens removed to some secret spot.
When again visited the nest in ques-
ton it was deserted save for the dead
kitten. II that cat had no conception
Of death she would have placed the
dead kitten beyond my reach, and for
the same reason that caused her to

prove it for themselves, sitting in a

tonic like it, provided the good effects
are not neutralized by ill-feeling. To

In presenting interesting phases OF

:. high-class newspapers frequently give
information Of as great value in their
advertising columns as in those de-
voted to the publication of the prin-

the fame of product is extended be-
yond its natural limits into foreign
lands, and large demand created
throughout Great Britain and her col

becomes a pleasant duty to note the
