The coincidence in point OF time between
an unusually big outbreak of spots the
sun last week and the development or
storms or exceptional severity has revived the
suspicion that there is a close relation be-
tween the two kinds of phenomena Predlc-
tons. based on the renewal Of solar activity,
are said to have been uttered within the last
few days by foreign metaorologists. though uh-
fortunately, no names are given. Some DAY
1t may be conclusively proven that disturb
ances of the terrestrial atmosphere are due 10
kindred occurrences on the sun, but It cannot
be asserted that ii has yet been done. LOCK-
yer in England and Bgelow in this country
have done good service in this cause, but
the demonstration is incomplete that their
theories must he accepted with caution, while
those OF less reputable authorities may be
safely ignored.

And Therefore Those Who Went to the
Ball Park Yesterday Afternoon
We're Probably Surprised.

II was Mr. James Wigs TO the rescue
again yesterday afternoon at Walkers
pasture when the local ball nine crossed
bats with the Spokane Indians. The
game was pitchers battle Wigs
and Hogg being the principals, and
while they both put up a hard fight,
James delivered the goods and Is en-
titled to the prize The 900 or so ball
fame who journeyed down to the park
were not disappointed but were prob
ably agreeably surprised to witness
a real baseball game and a good one
at that. IL was lively scrimmage from
start TO finish but the home guards
managed TO capture the goods, the score
being to /. 1t Is not certain that the
home team would have won had the
visitors given Hogg anything like de-
cent support. In that respect they fell
down and fell hard. Hogg was hit
eight times while Wigs escaped with
only Ave against him. The latter struck
out 10 hands and the Spokane twirler
went him one better.
The local crowd started to get runs
IN the first inning a single a base on
felder's choice and an error let In two
runs, A pass and hits by Wigs and

LEAGUE STILL LIVES.
Result Of Meeting at Butte Pleasing 10
Local Fans,

Butte, Aug. 27.--The magnates Of
what Is left OF the Pacific National
league held q conference this evening
which was continued long into the
night. The gentlemen attending the
meeting were President Lucas, Man
ayers Williams of Spokane Reynolds
OF Salt Lake, Dugdale OF Seattle and
Lane of Butte. Jack Grim Is also In
the city and presented to the magnates
a proposition from ogden for next sea-
son.
The question OF finishing the season
was decided unanimously In favor OF
going ahead with the league until the
first part OF October, The date Of clos
ing has however not yet been settled
upon, The chief difficulty arose over
n satisfactory revision OF the schedule,
but this matter will, II Is expected, be
adjusted without serious difficulty,
There were several matters of import
ance 10 come before the magnates, and
one of these was the remission Of the
500 fine placed on Manager Wilmot at
the time OF the Tacoma trouble.
II Is likely that the season Will end
the second week In October and with
games divided as equally as possible
between the four towns remaining.
The new schedule proposed, but
which has not been adopted yet gives
the major portion of the games to Spo-
kane and Seattle. Under the proposal
Spokane would get "a games and Seat
tie rs. Butte would get IL and Salt Lake
six. J. NJ, Reynolds, manager of the
Salt Lake team objected strongly to
this arrangement. BY playing the pres
ent season out the Pacific National
league retains all OF It's players and it's
territory. Next season promises more
for the game than ever The league
will be continued with six clubs These
will doubtless be Butte, Spokane, Beat
tie, Salt Lake Vancouver and WHAT
com. This has not been decided as yet,
however
Vancouver and Whatcom are anxious
TO get franchises In the league, and
the directors OF the league are not
averse to the proposition.
After much discussion on the part or
the magnates the following schedule
was finally adopted for the remainder
Of the season. ending Oct. 4:
