BRIEFS

"Davy" Jones, the rapid signing
outfielder, whose services for the
coming season are still claimed by
both the Chicago National and the st.
Louis American league ball clubs, has
the distinction of getting his name
placed first on a brand new list OF
ball players named the dishonOrable
list" by the National Association
of Minor leagues. Secretary Farrell
of the Minor association, yesterday
reported to President Hart, of Chica-
20. that the above action had been
taken in Jones' case ON account Of
the latter's various dealings with the
Chicago National club. The case
was brought to the notice of the
minor league authorities by the Rock
ford club of the Thrce-l league, and
il was i'm the interest of this club that
the action was taken.

text of a resolution passed at the

The Milwaukee road, through the
focal agent, s. Il. Stoddard, informed
the mayor that the company had no
tracks at SHE point in question. Man
ager O. Il. Grant, of the d., Il. |. d y.

the import of the inquiry. saying that
the question of installingan interlock-
ing crossing at that point had been
taken up by the various companies.
but no plan had yet been agreed upon.

To License Electricians.

The city council devoted n cunsid-
cradle portion of last evenings ses-
sion to the consideration of means for
the safeguarding of the people of
Rock Island against danger from in
fcrior workmanship ON the part of
careless electricians in placing in
buildings wires carrying a high volt
age. The question was raised by an
ordinance presented by Kid. Andrews
bearing ON the subject and providing
for an annual license of $25 for cleo
tricians who place wires carrying
over - volts. y number of aldermen
objected To this on the ground that it
would tend to make Il monopoly of
he business, and at the same time
fail To provide any sort of standard
of workmanship. The ordinance COM
mittce was granted further time in
which to investigate the measures in
force ON this head i'm other cities.

the end Of the thirteenth century the episcopal
ring was enriched by the addition Of precious
stones set around the principal one. At the con-

the new Cardinals, il is the custom for him to
confer upon Zach a ring. This practice dates
from about the twelfth century. These Car

Miss Edwardes. but soon began to show in
dividuality of her own. and is now one of the
hits Of the piece. Miss De Votes personality
is no less dainty and pleasing off than the
stage. In both Places she wins friends by her
entire lack of affectation and the spontanety Of
her smile. Like most actors. she has ambition.
but. unlike many, she does not say much about
them believing that acting speaks louder than
words Miss De Vote was born in Kentucky.
