Sunday base ball is again the topic Of
much discussion. It is one of the stumbling
blocks In the path Of the American asso-
citation Just now. In Ohio the sentiment
Is very strong against the practice. and the
present announcement is that there will be
no Sunday games at Cleveland, Columbus
or Toledo. In indianapolis the Sunday game
has always boon prohibited. and Watkins
effort to establish It this year has not been
successful. This means that In at least
three of the American association towns
there will be no Sunday games. Indianapo-
lis may get along all right with the week
day attendance, but Il IL hardly likely that
Toledo and Columbus will. At best these
towns have never been rated high, even
with Sunday games. and II held down TO
straight six-day ball, their finish Is IN
plain view. In the Western, Des Molnes is
threatened through a state law, q bill to
prevent Sunday ball playing having passed
the lower house OF the legislature last
week. 1t Is believed this will be killed in
the senate, but IL 1t should not, 1t will prove
a serious blow to the one team affected by
It. Just at present 1t is unnecessary to de-
bate the ethics Of the Sunday ball game.
The season is likely to determine whether
a professional team can be maintained in a
small town without Sunday ball.
Some CHEEKY little notes have been heard
since last Sunday. Jimmy Manning and
Charley Nichols took out a permit for a
SO, 900 grand stand, to be erected on their
Kansas City ground. which will be known
as Sportsman park. Work has been COM
menced on the stand, which will be a hne
permanent improvement. D. G. Packard has
started work OH a new stand at Broadway
park in Denver. Bill Everitt has signed

three seasons has done splendid work fol

for the extra price in Denver is the cost

John S. Mosby. we'll known as a
commander Of the guerilla band IN
the service Of the confederacy during
the war Of the states and who is now
special employe Of the Department OF
the Interior, showed willingness TO
talk about his wartime experiences
day or two ago. He denied the truth
Of a story that he had entered Alex
andria in disguise ard had engaged
IN some daredevil trick.
Oh, that story is al nonsense,
said Colonel Mosby. Z never vent to

stories arose because Of the rapid
movements Of my command. Why,
there is an Official telegram On hle IN

Of President Lincoln. It is needless
to say that the statement was known

Her husband was Il federal solder,
and she was northern woman. She
had a pass to go-in and out CT Wash

from her farm. I used to go to. her
house and get cup Of good coffee.
OF course she gave it to Us, knowing
that ne rather had charge Of things

Well on this particular morning 10 rs.
Barlow had q pair Of scissors hanging
from her apron. After had tailed

- Mrs. Barlow, lend me your scis-
sors.
She handed them to me, and I
reached up TO my head, got hold O.

Mrs. Barlow, please take this: lock OF
nv hair right IN to Lincoln, and say
To him that am coming to see hin

but she said she would do 1t.

rode s5raigat tc the White House and
gave the hair, TO the president per-
sonalIy. refusing to give it to any one
else. The president vas amused ana
laughed heartily No, I was not AFRAID
to do this because knew that by the
tine the president could attempt to

sident Lincoln never made any at

SHOULD BEGIN At HOME.
Senator Hansbrough Believes That Is
Where Reciprocity Should Be
gin to be Practiced.
Best Method of Revision of Tariff
He Believes Is By Reciprocity
Treaties. :

Washington, May 2.-Senator Hans
brough of North Dakota expressed the
opinion today that relief from tariff
schedules that may be too high in the
light of present conditions can be bet
ter effected through reciprocal trade
arrangements with foreign countries
than by a revision of the tariff. This
remark, is significant, in view of the
fact that Mr.. .H]ansbrough is a mem
Der of the finance committee.
The North Dakota senator believes
that a systematic policy of reciprocal
trade should be inaugurated without
delay. but before such trade arrange
ments are concluded with European
countries he believes treaties should
be concluded with countries on this
continent. Mr.. Hansbrough then ex-
pressed himself in favor of the pro-
posed concessions to Cuba. s
THE statement has been made that
it would be disastrous to our beet
sugar interests if a % per cent reduc-
ton in the duty on Cuban sugar were
allowed" said Senator Hansbrough.
81 do not believe that even a so per
cent reduction would injure our beet
sugar industry. There has been un-
necessary alarm over this matter"
Discussing the question further
Senator Hansbrough said:
SIT seems to me that the rapidly in.
creasing trade between Cuba and the
United States should induce us to be-
as liberal as possible with the island
and exact corresponding liberality OF
the part of Cuba, so that if the time
comes, a S I think it will, when Cubs
will ask for annexation we will be il
a position to annex her without dis
turbance to trade. Furthermore, W,
would then be in a position to dea
directly with Cuba, whereas if W.
should make the mistake of refusin,
now to enter into reciprocal arrange
ments with her, Cuba, as a separat.
governmental entity, would be JUST
fled in making such trade treaties witt
any of the European nations.
Such arrangements would operat
to promote sales of articles produce,
broad in the markets of Cuba an,
thereby displace the products of tn
United States, which market should o.
account of the close proximity of Cub
to the United States be the natura
market for our exporters.
81 would go farther continue
Senator Hansbrough, "and undertak
to make favorable commercial treatie
with Canada. MY idea of reciprocit
is that we should first deal with til
countries on this continent, and
time ~justifies such a policy. take u
the question Of reciprocity with othe
countries. In this way wholesale re
vision OF the tariff would be obviate
and the country would be spared th
shock that always comes from sue
revision"
