SPALDINC GETS OUT
DISPUTED NATIONAL LEAGUE PRES
IDENT TENDERS HIS RES
IGNATION
UP TO CLUBS 10 DECIDE
Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Pittsburg,
and Chicago Must Decide for
Surrender or for a Four
Club League.

NEW YORK, Feb ga. G. spalding
announced tonight that he had, pending
q meeting of the Brooklyn, Philadelphia,
Pittsburg and Chicago baseball clubs, to
be held Saturday in Pittsburg rendered
his resignation as president of the Ma
tional league.
Mr.. Spalding, in his letter of resgna-
tion says that it was because of a re
quest from these four clubs that he took
the stand which has brought the affairs
of the National league into the courts ;
and that as the playing season is APP
preaching and there are many financial
conditions to be confronted, he does not
wish to further embarrass them unless
they are willing to abide by his policy,
and continue, if necessary, with a four
club circuit. Therefore, he says, it is
for the Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Pitts
burg and Chicago clubs to either meet
Saturday and to assume the responsible
tty and to stand before the public either
in favor of continuing the fight or to
surrender to the opposition and accent
whatever terms may be handed to them.

HART ASSURES ROGERS
sPALDING's WESTERN AGENT VILE,
NOT PLAY WHITE sOx.

CHICAGO, Feb 2O.-President Hart. of
the local National league club, wired Coz,
Rogers, of Philadelphia, in reply to the
latter's TRADE against the American
league, assuring the colonel that the
Remnants would not play the White
Stockings without the consent of the rest
of the old league. When asked why this
obstacle of the National league consti-
tuition presented itself this year, when it
mad not been considered an obstacle to
the previous series. he said the obstacle
had always existed but he had not ex-
pected there would be objection to such
a series from the other clubs. incidental
ly, Mr.. Hart took issue with Rogers on
his hostility to the American league:
The National and American leagues
are in existence. They are both in Chi
cago to stay, and / am Iiberal-minded
enough to accept the situation as it is
and make the best of it. Naturally [
would like to have the field to myself.
but that is out Of the question now, and
the interests of baseball demand an ami
cable and harmonious settlement as soon
as possible. I would like TO see the game
under control again, and would be glad
TO have the two leagues working together.
so that the wishes of the patrons could
be granted They want games between
rival clubs in the same city each year,
and want to see them played, because
the public wants them and it tired Of
politics"

THE MEANING OF OKLAHO
MA.

In an interesting letter to Uni
ted States Attorney Horace
Speed, of this city, Governor
elect Green McCurtin, of the
Choctaw Indian Nation, gives the
following account of the naming
of Oklahoma and the correct
meaning of the word. This will
be interesting to the people of
Oklahoma in that the subject has
been so frequently discussed
Gov. McCurtin says
oklahoma is a Choctaw word,
meaning red people okla for peo-
pie and homma for red. This
word has been interpreted to
mean various things by people
who do not really know. And the
public generally believe it to
mean red land or land of the red
men, etc.
"Allen Wright, a fullblood
Choctaw, one of the trainers of
the treaty of 1866, suggested that
portion of the treaty you refer to,
and intended at the time that the
organization mentioned should in.
clude not only the five civilized
tribes, but also the wild tribes as
they became civilized, who were
located in the Indian territory.
'rhis proposed organization
failed to materialize on account
that the Cherokees and the Choc
taws could not agree as to mem
bership, as to the number oi
members to which they should
be entitled. "-Oklahoma State

A HUMANE HORSESHOE.

Considerable attention has been
attracted to the new humane ub-
ber horseshoe which recently APP
peared on the market. The pri-
mary object of shoeing to-day is,
or at least ought to be, for the
purpose Of controlling and direct
ing the growth of the feet so they
can act as a base to support the
limb properly. Lameness in hors-
es while unshod is often very dis
similar to the same ailment while
in a shod condition. While un-
shod the sole of the foot is most
likely to suffer, but when poorly
shod the portion above the sole
becomes the centre of pain, which
causes a general disturbance. A
horse often becomes lame be-
cause of insufficient quantity in
the matter of hoof, while an over
quantity may be the cause of all
lameness common to the horse.
The humane rubber horseshoe
relieves the jar and prevents con-
traction, which is the chief cause
of producing bruises commonly
called corns) which are situated
between the bar and wall of the
foot. This trouble usually rem
ders the horse unfit for service.
BY using the humane rubber
shoe the life OF the horse is pro.
longed and many bad habits that
the animal is subject to are avoid
ed, such as ankle cutting, tendon
and knee bruising, and forging is
also prevented. The animal can
not injure himself on the street
or in the stall with this shoe and
the wear is equal to any metallic
shoe. Itpreyents the horse from
slipping and gives to the foot frog
pressure and full rubber bearing
on the whole margin of the foot
i, there being a thin covering o.
sole leather on the upper side o1
the shoe which prevents the hooi
from coming in contact with the
rubber. There is no hot fitting
with this shoe, thereby avoiding
the absorption of the natural oil
of the hoof, and the owners oi
horses should realize that the
horses foot must be protected
while in use on hard pavements
and where it is deprived of natu
raj protection which the soil af
fords and where the foot will in {
great measure take care of itself
