Amateur Athletic association was organ

were elected. the organization was put

That is the history Of the early life of
the A. A. A., the organization now claim
ing as it's home the two upper stories Of
the building at 80, 80 and "a East Sixth
street. With the history told the home
of the club should be described.
The A. A. A. has an ideal home. When
the owner of the building instructed the
contractor to make alterations the sec
ond floor was arranged to receive the
reception room, the offices, the parlor, the
lockers and the bath rooms. On the up
per floor large gymnasium was built,
the best apparatus was introduced, and
special effort was made to have windows
located in positions to insure proper
lighting and ventilation.
When the St Paul Athletic club moved
into these quarters 1t boosted of a mem
bership of $50. This list soon swelled and
it was necessary to call upon Mr.. Smith
for more space. Another structure was
added and gave the club room for

another member of the directory of the
company today says the lease was eX-
ecuted late in the afternoon and paid
for by Tebeau. Mr.. Arnold said yester-
day at $3.50 o'clock that no lease would
be made until Monday, but the directors
changed their minds later in the day.
The price paid for the lease was $1,000.
This is $1,000 more than Manning paid
last season. The deal means that the old
Exposition park will be the home of Te-
beaus American association team next
season. Representatives of both Tebeau
and Manning are known to have Oeen
negotiating with real estate company
for a week in regard to leasing the old
park. Manning was undoubtedly the first
to open negotiations, and Tebeau was in
Denver at the time, but the land syndi-
cate telegraphed to him for a bid and

Chicago Thursday night, and left his bid

hind him. Tebeau now has two parks
under his control that is, he has one
park and grounds for another, having
leased the part Of the Ridge estate
bounded by Olive, Prospect and Twen-

He has already started to grade the

has one of the finest gymnasiums in the
Northwest
The handball court first received atten-
ton, and when the workers reported
their task completed the club had right
to boast of a court fast enough and good
enough for the best players of the coun-
try.
The bath rooms did not escape in the
general overhauling. They were enlarged,
the flow of water increased. the rooms
were reprinted and cleaned and the num-
Der of showers doubled.
The gymnasium furnished the reform
ers a plenty Of room for work, but there
was no halt called by the directors of
the club. Much of the old apparatus was
removed to make way for more advanc-
ed mechanisms, the woodwork was thor
cughly cleaned and the ceilings recall
cimined.
Today the membership list of the A.

WESTERN MUST WAKE UP.
Tebeau's Enterprise Will Open n
Few SleeDy Ewes.

The Western baseball critics who have
been assuring the fanatics that the
American association would never get
any farther than the paper stage were
surprised and panied to learn yesterday
afternoon that the magnates of the new
organization are still UP and doing.
The critics who have insisted that by
the time the constitution and bylaws of
the new organization were framed Hickey
and his followers would be willing to quit
now know that the Hickey faction has
been on the move, and has played card
that will make the Western hurry con-
siderable to repair the injury.
Tebeaus clever move told in the special
dispatch printed above is a severe blew
to the Western league. Tebeau has Sc
cured the old baseball park in Kansas
City, and he has already broken ground
ON about the only other available base
ball site in the cowboy town.
This leaves Manning and Nichols in
bad shape. With q baseball park avail
able Nichols was perhaps willing to push
aside an offer of sure money from cne
big league to take chance with Man
ming. With Tebeau holding the baseball!
parks it is hardly probable that Nichols
will be willing tos go in with Manning.
Considerable money will have to be in
vested by the two men before they can
in Kansas City, and few will believe
that Nichols will invest money where Inc
promise of a return looks anything but
bright.
The critics who feel certain that the
Western is to win out, and~that st. Paul
is to be left without baseball, are doing
much more worrying than is the owner
of the st. Paul franchise in the Ameri-
can association.
Already, before the fight is really start
ed, Lennon is being blamed for letting
go of his holding In the Western league.
Lennon does not regret this move. He
insists that he stands for faster bail for
ST. Paul, and that as far as he is con-
cerned St. Paul Is to have the faster
grade of ball If Lennon presents any
baseball.
The owner of the ST. Paul club limited
yesterday afternoon that something was
to start in Kansas City, and claiming
that the American has a still better
trump card up it's sleeve he refuses to
feel frightened about his chances in st.
Paul.
He insists that when the American as
sociation's 1902 season opens the new
organization will have teams in st Paul
and Minneapolis, and is willing to wager

announcement that the students will have

among members of the board Of control
reveals a condition favorable to doing as
the captain of the baseball team recon-
mends, and the situation now remains
UP to the students.
Abandonment of the baseball team
would be distinctly unpopular with the
Iowa students this year Two years ago
it's abandonment would have possibly car
ried If submitted to the athletic union.
but now 1t is much more popular than
the track team, and If compelled to
choose between tise two teams the stu
dents would hold to the baseball team.
The baseball team has played good
games throughout it's season, and has
aroused great interest among the stu,
dents, who have come to follow it's games
with interest nearly as great as the foot
ball games are followed. The track team,
however, laid down. at Des Moines last
spring and lost even the state meet, and
though it had the benefit of the best SAL
aried trainer that could be obtained,
came out fourth behind all the other
schools that had any representation at

It is thought that the lack of GYM
nasium handicaps the track team so that
is is unable to do anything, and that the
gymnasium might as we'll be waited for
without a track team. Indications are
that the gymnasium may be built in
about six years.
Capt. Anderson, one of the few good
track performers left at the university,
has had the track team out for fall
training, but no astonishing material de-
veloped, and none of the candidates cared
much whether they trained or not
Capt. Brown, the captain of the two
past years track teams, may, be engaged
as trainer Of the track team next
spring, If there Is any. The university
has a contract for meet with Minnesota

may be in the way of abandoning the

want many meets this spring, preferring
to have his men train steadily for the

Iettc association has not yet received a
reply TO its inquiry regarding the status
OF Barry, Kraenslein, Tewkesbury and
Flanagan during their recent visit to
England. The secretary of the Amateur
Athletic association wrote to Secretary
Sullivan. of the American Athletic union,
asking If the aforementioned athletes
were representing clubs or were compel
Ing as individuals when they were IN
England. Allegations were made that
they had had their travelling expenses
paid by English organizations, which is
contrary to the rules in force here.
There is no desire to endeavor to dis.
qualify the Americans. but the idea is to
investigate the charges with the view of
disciplining the English clubs. Were
Kraenslein and the others formally rep
resenting American organizations these
would have been communicated with as
a measure of courtesy. Ii the charges
are proved the athletes are liable to lis
