| President Sexton ReprImands Manag Ell
of Terre Haute Team.
Ia regard to the statement made by
J Bill Kreig of the Terre Haute team to
! the effect that the northern teams
had com bined to beat Terre Hlute out
of the pennant, the folio wing red-hot
letter comes from President Sexton,
and it seems to mean that Bill NAV
walk the carpet:
MY attention has Just been called
to an article now going the rounds of
the press in this circuit which is pur-
ported to be an interview with Mana
ger w. +. Kreig of the Terre Haute
club by the Evansville Courier. In
said interview Mr.. Kreig is quoted as
saying: Il have no doubt that a COM
bination has been formed by toe
northern teams to beat us out. Cedar
Rapids is next to us in the standing
today, and as they have more chancs
to win than anyone else, the other
teams have decided to lay down be-
fore Hills crowd, in order to beat my
team out of the championship
During the many years that /
have taken an active interest in base
ball l cannot recall an instance
wherein a club manager has been
guilty of such ungraceful, ungentle-
manly. contemplate and unsports-
manlike sentiments as Mr.. Kreig
gives utterance to in said interview.
1--WE are row within four games of
the end of the season, and this is the
first instance of a notorious character
to mar our good record, and while my
own inclination is to take summary
action In Mr.. Kreig's case, feel that
it would be better to await our COM
ing league meeting, hoping that our
representatives at that time will adj
minister to Mr.. Kreig a rebuke so
severe in nature as to stand out at all
time in the future as warning that
the gentlemen who devote their time
and energy to the interest of baseball
in our different cities will not permit
to 90 unnoticed such an insult to
their honesty and integrity as is con-
veyed in the interview above referred
to-"
Notes OF the Diamond.
Shaffer is mighty spry for such an
old codger.
The rusty" battery worked nicely
until the fatal ninth
Grsham's better half was in the
grand stand when he went to bat in
the last inning. He told her he was
going to make hit and he did.
Shaffer and Conklin reached first
every time up. Shaffer got three hits,
base on balls and once he was safe
on a fielder's choice. Conklip tore off
three hits, walked once and was pre-

In the last game of the season on
the home grounds yesterday the white
socks downed the Rockfords by a
score OF 6 to 5. 1t is seldom that the
same score is duplicated in one series,
and it is still more rarely that the
same man makes the his necessary to
win the game.
Oscar Graham, who played the
right suburb in place of Stanley Ar
thur. was on deck again with one of
those grass-cutting singles. With the
score 5 to against them, and Owens
pitching good ball, the white socks
came to the front. 1t was the ninth
inning. Tate, who get a nice 3-bagger
earlier in the game, was the first
man up. He looked at Owens beau
tiful physiognomy for a moment and
then ripped off a pretty single Just to
start the ball a-rolling. Mullaney,
who hadn't got a hit, planted one in
front of Ferris, who made poor throw,
and Null was safe on the initial cush-
ion. Then Hoy picked out one of
o 1ens' shoots and labeled it for two
sacks, scoring Tate, and placing Null
laney on third. A single was all thst
was necessary to win the game and
Graham was there with the goods,
for he hit a hot one past third and
the game was won.
Visitors Score Early.
Rockford started the game by rolling
up two. Shaffer. whose batting average
was 1000 for the day, made his first
hit q 2-bagger. Conklin hit to Mid
dleton and was safe on an error, the
only one made by Rock Island.
Shaffer, who had stolen third, scored
on the play. After Jones had walked
and Kanford had gone out, short to
first. Sears flew to Hopkins and Con-
kiln came home. Jones also attempted
to score, but was put out.
Both sides were blanked until the
fourth. when Rock Island secured
three. After Moriarity had gone out,
Middleton hit for two bases. Rebsa-
men knocked one to Ferris too hot
for him to handle and was safe. Tate
found curve that was just right
and landed on it for three bases, scor-
ing Middleton and Rebsamen; Mulla-
ney nit to short and Tate scored. and
Hoy struck out. Rockford immedi-
ately took back the three in the fifth.

Organize to Protect Themselves Against
Contract Jumping, Etc.
The National Association of Profess
sional Baseball Leagues was organized
at a meeting of minor league presi-
dents at the Leland, Chicago, last
night. The minor baseball organiza-
tions of the country were represented
at the meeting either by delegate or
by proxy, and from present indica-
tions they will be banded into firm
union, and respect each others
contracts in such way that they will
be as formidable as under the former
protection of the National league.
The presidents in attendance were
as follows: Hickey, Western league;
Sexton, Three L; Meyers, Western as
ISOLATION; Powers, Eastern league;
Murnane, New England league; Far
rell, New York State league; Lucas,
Northwestern league. Presidents
O'Rouke of the Connecticut league
and the executives of the Souther n
and California leagues wererepresent-
ed by proxy.
At last nights session little was
done except to effect temporary or
ganization with Presideot Hickey as
chairman and President Farrell as
secretary. Plans were made to re-
spect all minor league contracts and
provide against the jumping" of
their players to the big leagues
without a compensation. This will
probably be done by debarring the
player from further engagements in
the minor leagues if he leaves without
his clubs consent.
Neither the American nor the Ma
tional league will be adopted as a
champion, but the new organization
will try to remain independent and
friendly with both. Permanent or
ganization will be effected at fall
meeting in New York.

scented with base by an error OF
Middleton's.
The team at least afforded the fans
the satisfaction of claiming the last
game of the season on the home
grounds. That was a nice thing to
do, Null. And Graham was again the
hero of the day.
The Rock Islaud team plays in Ce-
dar Rapids today, tomorrow and Sum
day. Today postponed game is be-
ing played.
The post-season series proposed be-
tween Rock Island and Davenport has
been declared off as result of confer
ence that President MungeFand Man
ager Hayes had last Sunday. 1t was
mutually agreed that the undertaking
would not be a success financially and
the clubs did not feel like taking
chances at this late day. The Terre
te-Evansville series has been aban-
doned for the same reason.
Tate is deserving of credit for the
showing he has made in the last few
games, for he has worked hard. 1t is
his misfortune that he did not do more
of this kind of work throughout the
season. He was capable of it right
along.
Rock Island won the two opening
and the two closing games of all the
series at home, but the games that
came between them are the ones that
landed US near the bottom.
1t is unfortunate that Stanley Ar
thur, who had won favor among the
fans by his fine catching. should have
acted so unbecomiogly at the close OF
the season as to mar his record.

Russia and Federation.

J. Novicor in the International Review.
 Officially all great Russians are ortho- dox. Russia is still unhappily a confes- sional state in every sense of the word, and suffers the unfortunate conse- quences thereof. The laws are made to uphold orthodoxy. Above all, the sover- eign and his family must be orthodox The state protects this form of religion by a set of laws. which practically abolish liberty of conscience in the em- pire of Czars. Replying to a petition which had bsRN. addressed to him in fa- vor of toleration by an English society, M. Pobedonostzef, the procurator of the Holy Synod, replied that religious tolcra- tion was the fundamental rule of the Rus sian empire In making this reply he was levidently playing upon words. It is true that Catholics, Mussulmans. and Israelites are authorized to practice their forms of worship in Russia. But any per son who tries to convert a member of the Orthodox church from his faith, even in the interest of another Christian pro- fession. is liable to exile in Siberia. If the conversion be in the interest of non-C Christian religion. 1t is forced labor for eight or ten years. Federation must be interpreted in very narrow sense to be understood in the merely passive way in which M. PobedonostZef understands it. No religious liberty consists in recog- nizing the sacred and inviolable right of the individual to preach what seems to him to be the truth

Wanting To Be An Actor.
n Everybody's Magazine.

From Everybody's Magazine.
 'An the professions are overcrowded. Tho placard of No application for en- gagement received might just as well be hung at the doorway of every law, medical or editorial office as at the portal of the theater." That is what I have thought in reading the letters of inquiry about going on the stage. They have come from all parts of the United States, but not from all kinds of persons Hard ly any of the writers have betrayed a lack of at least fair education. Many have given reasons, real or fancied-such as proficiency in elocution at school, or experience as actors in amateur perform ances-why they deem themselves fit to get into theater by the stage door in stead of the public entrance So I have not felt like replying to all of them, Don't try" I have, instead, advised them to go to the travelling and resident managers, especially those with compa- nies of moderate merit and scant pros perity and offer themselves for inspec- tion. Possessors of good looks and crude abilities will not fail, with some persist ence, to secure in that way trial, if not much remuneration. But if they find that not one in succession of twenty years Is favorably impressed at all, then they should be convinced that they have been mistaken about themselves. and that they have simply sought an opportunity for their ambition to 'o'erleap itself.'"

The Queen and Her Dogs.

From Our Animal Friends.
 The Queen raised the Scotch collie to It's proud position of the most popular dog in England-it having no mean repu- tation in Scotland. She owned and loved two collies, Sharp" and Noble" which accompanied her daily on her rides about the country. When children come to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert they, too, had their pet dogs. Perhaps the set ters and the spaniels were their best known playfellows. Those dogs are painted the oftenest with the groups of the Princes and Princesses As house dogs, the Queen found the Dandie Din monts unmatched for faithfulness. The Skyes were also pets, both at Windsor and at Balmoral Castle.
 One word we must say of Eos, the de- voted and beloved greyhound of Prince Albert. She belonged to the Prince long before his marriage, and then lived with the Queen and Prince The dog, with her two puppies. was painted by the great Landseer, and by another fine artist, George Morley. The picture by Landseer is ono of the most beautiful dog DOT traits in existence. On the death of Prince Albert the ef1igy of Eos was carv- ed upon his tomb.
 When Queen Victoria lay dying she sent for her dainty pet Pomeranian dog, Marco. The affectionate little animal Jumped up on the bed, and the poor lady caressed it with every mark of tender ness. It is not strange, of course, that in the life of so true-hearted a woman the mere beats about her should play an i'm portant part and be cared for with so true a spirit of kindness; but the example is worth noting and following for Its own 8ake.

SPOON COLLECTING FAD.
Women Have Escorts Take Them
 From Restaurants.


 sT don't object to fads on principle" :" said the proprietor of fashionable Broadway restaurant the other day, 'but there is one vogue now that l would like to see run it's course and give way to one which respects the rights of property. The young women of this town have craze for collecting restaurant spoons. They don't care for them at all, however, unless they bear the marks of the house from which they were filched. No, they don't take them themselves. The aver age young woman, all reports to the contrary notwithstanding, Is timid when in public dining room They simply intimate to their gentlemen ac- Quaintances that they appreciate such things and the men they do the rest
 T can't say how many I have lost from good customers whom 1 coulon call down even If I were to catch them red-handed- The customer of place like this Is likely to be worth several hundred dollars in the course or year, and few spoons more would not cut down our profits to any large ex- tent, but the practice is annoying, ana for that reason more .Aian any otner would like to see 1t abandoned.
 Say, know one young fellow who couldn't steal even to please his best girl. What do you suppose he did? He went and had lot of spoons especially stamped with the names of different restaurants and gave them to her one at a time She undoubteL-y has choice collection, but l have often wondered since heard about l. if she would set as much store by them as she does if she were to be informed that the donor came by them hon. eSfiy"

Spring is the season for the annual house cleaning, which is considered try Ing time for housekeepers.
 If one has hard wood floors and rugs the burden is very much frightened.
 If one goes about 1t systematically, taking one room at a time, going thor oughly over every piece of furniture, ore finds great satisfaction when 1t Is over. Below will be found some useful hints:
 Use coarse salt in cleaning. Scatter the salt by the handful on the floor of each room to be swept The salt absorbs the dust in sweeping. and imparts a freshness to the colors in the carpets, and assists in the cleaning of the apartments
 A simple but effective disinfectant to pour down sink Is a small quantity of charcoal mixed with clear water.
