CLOVIS.

Oh, have seen the splendid light that gilds
the mountains snowy crest.
And have seen the shafts that CLEAN upon
the oceans throbbing breast;
Oh. I have seen the mellow rays that flood
the Towering fields with light,
And l have seen the ruddy streaks that
come when morning wooes the night
I stepped upon the sidewalk, where 1t had
been smoothed by human feet,
Twas covered by a coating of exceptional
ly slippery sleet:
The rays that gid the mountains crest,
the shafts that CLEAN upon the sea.
And all those other glints an6 things were
witnessed in bunch By me.

ALLIANCE WITH THE MILITARY
ATHLETIC LEAGUE.

T. ]. Keenan,. ir.. president OF the League OF

dav from his home in PIttsburg to talk about the
affairs of the organization with some of the East
ern leaders When seen President Keenan, was in
consultation with Isaac b. Potter eX-president OF
the League. and with Colonel Luscomb. OF the
Military Athletic League. President Keenan, smiled
as he said 1--WE have just completed an alliance
with the Military League which will be a par
ticularly strong one You can say positively that

the position to anybody yet. and consequently no
body has had chance to decline It, The posi-
ton will be offered a man capable OF handing
IT, in n few days. and you can say that he VIII
accept IT."
It was learned later in the day that {. W.
Mears Of Cleveland would not secure the position
as chairman Of the Racing Board, and that the Sc
lection would probably be either Mccarthy. OF
New York: Robinson. Of Boston; or Gerlach. OF
Chicago. II is intimated that Mears withdrew as
a candidate when he heard Of the conditions which
President Keenan, would insist upon; ,,..,
President Keenan, intimated that ne cohSiutIeo
