MANAGER O'ROURKE'S OPINION
He Believes Sunday Base Ball Should
 Be Allowed in This State.

Be Allowed m InlS State.
 The Bridgeport Union publishes the following story on Sunday base ball:
 Some of the newspapers up the state are publishing articles regarding Sun day base ball. and the effort which will be made at the next session of the legislature to have the statute so amended that games may be played on Sunday without violation of the law. They claim that the trolley roads and state base ball league will probably push the proposed bills.
 Manager James H. O Rrourke of the local base ball team and a member of the State league, was interviewed on the subject yesterday by representa- tive of the Morning Union, and he is thoroughly in favor of legislation of this character. He stated that he had not been approached in regard to it, and in fact did not know that such leg is1ation was proposed. He is in favor of allowing every man all the personal liberty which would not conflict with the individual rights of others. From a financial standpoint he did not think there would be big money in Sun day base ball, but he did think there was a possibility for exercise in it which could not be underestimated. He said that it was a well known fact that men and boys who are shut up in q factory from in the morning until 6 at night will not exercise unless the form of exercise suits their notion. To many base ball is that acme of sport desired. Sunday is the only time they have to enjoy it, and at the present time they play it at the risk of arrest He did not advocate bail playing being allowed so close to the residential DOT tions of a city as to disturb people whose Sabbatarian ideas are more strict. Nor did he think base ball of q boisterous character bordering on a breach of the peace desirable. He deemed the state unwiSe to forbid that privilege of exercise on Sunday which would make better and more healthful citizens in time of peace and better soldiers in time of war.
 He argued that the masses have as good d right to enjoy themselves on Sunday as the legislators have to en- joy themselves all the week. Driving. bicycling, skating. rowing. sailing and other sports are allowed. but base ball has been discriminated against when there was no more injury in it. no more violation of Sabbatarian ideas than in the other forms of amusement which are allowable. He stated that as a rule he attended church Sunday mornings. but that he liked to get out in the fields ill the afternoon. He thought the surplus steam of youth might better be utilized in playing base ball in an out of the way place. dis turbing no one, than in hanging about corners on Main street ogling passers- by. or in visiting places where purity of thought and speech has long been forgotten. A little more liberty in the base ball line Sundays he thought would not corrupt the land, and he fla vored such legislation as would bring it about.

EntimntIon That He Would Not See
 Kruger Denied.

THE HAGUE, Dec. 12-The Trans vaal legation says it is authorized to con tradict the report that Emperor Nicholas has telegraphed to Mir. Kruger an inti- nation that he will not receive him.
 The Dutch government has finally and definitely refused to take the initiative in behalf of arbitration between the Trans vaal and Great Britain.
 The decision of the government was communicated in an interview between Mir Kruger and Dr. Leyds and the Dutch foreign minister and minister of finance, MT. N. G. Pierson. MT. Kruger explained that the object of his journey was to disseminate the idea of arbitra- ton, and the Dutch minister replied that the role of the Netherlands must be pas sive. The initiative belonged to the great powers, he added. When they had reach ed a decision the Dutch government might see what it could do.

MONEY IN COPPER

More money he's, in recent years,
been made in copper mining than In
any other stable enterprises, as free
from the element Of Fisk. The expe-
rienoe Of a common laborer at the
same Calumet and Hecla mines Is In
teresting. he began by investing his
surplus wages In the stock, then his
dividends, and today is the possessor
By this method Of 500 shares Of ths
sto,k worth on the market nearly
$4,000. Many Of the old employees
Of these mines have accumulated from
go, 900 to $50, 900 in the same way.
The original purchasers Of the stock
of the companies now forming tho
Amalgamatsd Copper company paid
In most instances not to exceed 30 pre-
cent Of their par value. The market
value today is at least fourteen times
the amount paid, or clear profit Of
over 1000 Der cent, besides all Of the
dividends received. which have been
at least an equal amount. Scion M.
