STABLE ATTACHED MORRISON HOLDS CLAIM OF

New Orleans. Feb. 1.-The St. Charles Hotel stakes for 2-year-olds at half a mile and worth $025 to the winner was prac- ucally race between the Walden Ally Petunia and Aransas Pass, who ran in the colors of w. s. Price, to whom she was sold for 5000 before the race. Becky Rice. backed from threes to to B. was favorite. but the rising barrier left her hat footed She closed a tremendous gap rounding the turn, but was interfered with and crowded back in the run home. Petunia, second choice at 16 to 5, and Aransas Pass at ' to 2. fought it out all through the last furlong. Lindsey out rode Hall at the end and Petunia finished neck in front.

clining to urge Mir Ragland to accept your recommendation. If Messrs Ewing and Fisher had agreed to serve upon the arbitration committee, and had selected you as the third man, and all three or you had gone to Montgomery, your de- cision would have been final. Unless some such procedure as that Is taken, the two gentlemen in interest must agree upon what is done. We have the money necessary to bind their part of the con- tract with the league, and their own af- fairs must be settled among themselves. 1 regret very much that l could not join you at Montgomery. Business affairs first prevented, and then my wife's Ill., ness intervened. I fear that you did not understand the situation thoroughly when you went to Montgomery. l am sure that If you had. you would not have gone without the other two arbitrators.

Vising division of parks to which I replied that that was impossible. giving nm my reason-the following letter which l wrote MT. Palmer will explain my posi- tion:"
 Office of
 President. Secretary and Treasurer.
 Little Rock, Ark. Feb, End, 1903.
 MT James Palmer, Nashville. Tenn:
 Dear Sir-Late yesterday afternoon I received the following telegram from you: I advise a division of days. Wire hagland urging acceptance, to which 1 replied as follows: Recommendations not m accordance with New Orleans arbitra- tion agreement. Cannot recommend adop- uoh' Will give you my reasons for the position 1 took in the matter. All of the clubs in the association have decided that the games must be played upon one park In each city The reasons for this are obvious. If there was not a good at- tendance at one park, and there was at the other. the visiting team playing upon the park where there was the least at- tendance would have complaint against @ .nose who are fortunate enough to play upon the park where there was a larger attendance. It would create factions in the local patronage, and cause untold confusion. Messrs. Ragland and Semmes nave agreed to operate the franchise joint ly' but they could not agree upon the park upon which the games should be played. At the. conference held at New Orleans last Sunday, at which Messrs Ragiand and Semmes were both present. MT. Newman and myself being there also, they paid the money necessary to retain the franchise in Montgomery jointly, and agreed upon all points, except one. and mat was as to the park. It was agreed then and there that this park problem should be settled by arbitratiQ0. each one Of these parties to select anuarbitra tor. from some one connected with the various clubs in the association, these two to select third and those three to MOnfRnmnFV nd park the games should be played. That was the plain. unequivocal agreement made there, and l could not recommend the adoption of anything else, unless both of the parties agreed to it. In the first place, MT. Ewing has declined to serve with Fisher. If he and Mir. Fisher had agreed upon a third party. according to the terms of the agreement, all three were expected to go to Montgomery and terest had agreed that the decision of this board of arbitration should be final These. briefly. are my reasons for de

Dinkins-who Judge kavanaugh holds is an interested party-Mr. Ragand to have the privelege of selecting one of his friends who will be an interested party To these propositions, one or both of them, MT. Ragiand agreed, but MT Semmes told Judge kaVanaugh that he would let him know his decision by tele- graph by o'clock this afternoon. Judge Kavanaugh then left for Little Rock on the northbound Louisville and Nash ville train at 6:SO o'clock yesterday even- ing.
 While he did not say what would be the result of the plan he had proposed not being agreed to still 1t seems to be pretty certain that the local franchise will be taken away from Messrs Semmes and Ragland entirely and granted to some other person in Montgomery.
 While Judge kavanaugh Is a citizen of Little Rock still he Is a native Alaba- milan though few people are aware of the fact He was born in what was then the county of Greene-now Hale-near the beautiful little town of Greensboro. Dur ing the Civil War his father. Methodist preacher by some means drifted to Greene County and married, his wife being a Miss Kimbrough. With his mother and father the Judge moved to Kentucky. and for some years he served as reporter on a paper in Covlngton From kentucky he moved to Arkansas and for number of years was editor of The Arkansas Gazette in Little Rock. Then for num- OeT or years ne served as SnerlH Of Pulaski County, Arkansas, being later elected to the office of Probate Judge of that county which position he now holds While true as steel to his friends he Is fearless and determined and in the mat ter of justice and plain right and wrong hews to one line regardless of the con sequences to either his friends or enemies. His prominence In baseball came by his level headed, decisive actions in the out law league fight, and to him more than QnUhnAU nI fc duo he Foa Is Southern League today. In the big fight ir Chicago between the American Association and the National Association he again made 1t possible for the war ing elements to get together. If the en- tire Southland had been searched over 1t would have been impossible to find man as thoroughly equal to all baseball exigencies than Judge Kavanaugh
 That he will settle the Montgomery trouble as he did the fight between the Southern and outlaw leagues and the American and National Association is oonfdentally predicted.

STARCH HAS A HISTORY
Was First Made in Flanders and Invaded England in Elizabeth's
 Time.

 Invaded England in Elizabeth's
 Time.
 Philadelphia Record.
 "A package of starch7" asked the in- telligent and learned grocer, and as he wrapped the package up he talked.
 Starch originated" he said, "in Elan ders. It was introduced into England with the big ruff at the time of Queen Elizabeth It was like our starch of to- red. yellow, green, blue. The effect of this was to tint delicately the white linen to which the starch might be applied.
 Before Queen Elizabeth's time ruffles ana runs were made of fine Holland, which required no stiffening. Then the rufrs of cambric came and these must of necessity tbe starched.'
 The grocer. consulting his memorandum book. resumed:
 Tt is recorded that when the Queen had runs made of lawn and cambrtc for her own princely wearing there was none In England could tell how to starch them. but the Queen made special means for some women that could starch and Mrs. Gullham, wife of the royal coach- man, was che first starcher'
 Tn 1884, a Flanders woman, Frau Van Der Plasse. came to London and estab- nshed there school for the teaching of starching. The school succeeded. The Flanders frau got rich. She charged 5 pounds a lesson and an extra 20 shiIlines for a recipe for the making of starch out of wheat flour, bran and roots.
 Yellow was the most fashionable color In starch among the nobility. The fast racing set went in for green. The Puri- tans used blue starch though at first they had been against the stuff altogether. Clubbing 1t "A certaine kinde of nqude matter which they called starch, wherein the devill hath willed them to wash and dive their ruffles which. when they be dry, will then stand stiffe and indexible about their necks'
 starch Is made from wheat, corn and potatoes and starving men have often sub sisted on 1t, finding 1t nour1shing, though not tasty

HAPPIESr MAN ON EARTH
He Is Not Very Common, But occa- sional Specimens May Be Found.

Canton, (Mo) Saturday Roller
 The happiest man in the world is the common. everyday chap who makes his own living, pays his own board and has the respect of his neignbors. de saves a little money as he goes along. but ne doesn't try to get a corner on the local output and he Is slave to neither ann bition nor society. When he slides Into his pants in the morning he never wastes any time trying to pick out the risnt t tint of socks, suspender and necktles that will blend with the general effect
 He wears billed shirt when he feels like it. and when his pet corn begins to jump he whips out his pet jack knife and cuts a four-inch gash in the side of his boot and nothing Is said about 1t in the papers. He has an appetite like cy- clone and never has to sit up nights to poultice his conscience. He believes in the doctrine of live and let live. When he encounters one of the needy he doesn t stutter with his pocketbook. The plain plug of a man is happy because he Is satisfied and doesn't spend the better part of his life yearning for something about four sizes too big for him.
