HAS DEEP PROBLEM
President Sexton Laboring With
lntricacies of Three.l
Schedule.
MANY DIFFICULTIES PRESENTED
Rock Island and Davenport Will Not
Be Matched for the
Holidays.

President Sexton is using up con-
siderable gray matter these days fig
uring out the Three-Eye league sehed-
ule. The schedule of the Western
league has been drafted and is ready
to be submitted to the directors of
that organization, but the schedule of
the Three-Eye promises to furnish di-
version for the chief executive and his
worthy secretary, Ralph Haverstick,
for some days to come.
The changes that have been made
in the circuit through the substitu-
ton of Joliet and Dubuque for Evans
vile and Terre Haute have introduced
a number Of new elements into the
problem, so that the schedules of the
past two seasons cannot be used as
patterns. Neither can the schedule
now preparing to be modelled after
that of the Western league, which
contains more games and involves
different conditions altogether.
This year the pairing of the towns
between which the greatest rivalry
exists for the holidays cannot be ar
ranged, owing to the alterations in
division of the circuit. Rock Island
halves of the circuit, the south half
being composed of this city with
bloomington, Decatur and Joliet In
making up the matches it has been
found impossible to throw Rock ISL
and and Davenport together for the
holidays. Likewise Bloomington and
Decatur will separate.
More Open Dates.
In accordance with the expressed
Will of the delegates to the annual
meeting, more open dates are being
introduced than there were the past
two years. There will be fourteen
days with no games. and these are be-
ing brought to fall on Mondays so far
as possible.
There are more fine points that en-
ter into the makeup of baseball
schedule than appears at first glance.
Distance and chronology furnish
enough figures to make the problem
one for a mathematician, and then
the result of all of the work is likely
to be entirely upset by the objection
to some of the details on the part of
some of the club directors.

AGREE ON A PLAN
Residents of Southeast Part OF
City See Way to Pave
Fourteenth Avenue.
IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION ACTS
Part of Cost to Be Raised by Popu-
lar Subscription of NeighbOring
Property Holders.

The regular meeting of the Bluff
| Improvement association was held
last evening at the quarters in the
German Lutheran chapel on Thirty
eighth street. The topic for discus
sion was the improving of Fourteenth
avenue, action being taken on the re-
port of the committee appointed at
previous meeting to wrestle with this
problem. The plan submitted was
finally agreed upon and measures
taken looking to it's execution.
The permanent improvement of
Fourteenth avenue from fThirtieth
street east is a matter that is of the
greatest importance to the Residents
for some blocks on each side of that
| thOroughfare who are compelled to
use it in getting to and from their
homes. At the same time the lots
are laid out so that they face the
streets and the burden imposed upon
the abutting property holders if the
avenue is paved Will be very heavy.
The other residents of that section
are willing to bear a portion of the
expense and the plan adopted last
evening has that in view.
DoIdils Oh EIan'
1t is proposed that the abutting
property holders shall pay half of
the cost after the share of the Tri-
City Railway company, the Elm
street line of which runs the entire
length of the avenue desired to be inn
proved. The other half of the cost is
to be raised by subscription. each
person being asked to contribute So
toward the improvement. The COM
mittee already appointed was increas-
ed by the addition Of three new MEM
bers and was given power tn appoint
a subcommittee to attend TO the can
vass for subscriptions.
The next meeting of the associa-
ton will witness the Introduction of
entertainment features not hereto
fore INDUCED in, il being decided TO
arrange for n card party with re
freshmeuts.
