A neater article OF the national had

The first two victims only tore rents

connected and laid off flaming
grasser which would have made pro-

a bean bag tossed from one baby to

that someone yelled derisively; That

A. G. Spalding was elected president
of the National league on the twenty
sixth ballot, which was taken after
the meeting.
Mr. Spaldings connection with baGe-
bail began more than thirty years ago,
when he became famed as the best
pitcher in the profession. 1t was the
day of the underhand pitch and the
curveless ball in this times, and Spald-
ing had none of the modern twirler's
advantages to help him. He could not
tie himself up in knot, send in
tearing overland ball, or make the
leather wriggle along shooting lines.
He had to put them right over and
depend on his head, and history shows
that he was as great in his line as
Keefe and Rusie were in theirs. His
pitching for the Forest City club of
Rockford in 1871 has seldom been
equaled in all the years that have since
gone by.
Spa!1ing was more business-like and
more keenly alive to the possibilities
of baseball as a money-maker than the
other players of his day. After the
English tour of 1873 he began laying
lines for the great sporting goods
trade which now bears his name. He
enlisted capital. put in the savings OF
his baseball career and began on a
small scale a business which has silce
grown to mammoth size.
Mr.. Spalding now has sporting goods
houses all over the country, with
branches in Europe, and is also an
owner Of vast Southwestern estates.

The migration of different sorts OF

The most remarkable feature about
squirrel mig~a.ions lies in the method
they sometimes employ in crossing
water. They have been known to put
pieces of BARK into the water and drift
on these in the current of river until
