That there never was a time when con-
ccrted action on the part of the sports
men of Missouri was required more than
at present. if TIE game of this region is
to be preserved is the statement made
by August Reese secretary of the Au tu-
hen Society Of Missouri who has just re-
turned from the League of American
Sportsmen's Convention a; Columbus.
With delegates attending from thirty
eight States and Territories including
Alaska. Montana and Idaho. reports of
game conditions were comprehensive and
accurate. In some sections of the coun-
try conditions arc improving SO far as
wild life is concerned. In other regions
they are going backward. as shown by
these statistics. And the entire Mississippi
Valley is n region where there is need of
reform. says Nr. Reese.
IN the Northwest and East the work of
the league has been strongly in evidence"
said he. and reports at the convention
show that its efforts resulted in improved
conditions in their neighbo-hocds. Wild
life has been on the increase since the
league made its power felt in those re
giort;
Delegate Dawson Of Montana. noted

nonenal increase in wild game since in
terest has besn aroused in its preservation
and action has been taken bv the citizens
and press o: his country. Stringent yet
liberal game laws have accomplished Won
ders for the State.
Gratifying reports came from Maine.

vania But it was ike listening to the
history of a vanishing race TO hear the
tale of bird and game destruction through
out the Mississippi Valley. Quail. once
so abundant IS now being gradually ex-
terminated. Ruffied grouse. prairie chick

out of existence in this entire section. Re
lentlessly prosecuted, and with no effective
legislation to protec. them. il appears as

is approaching the last milestones of its
dreary existence.

The St. Louis Republic., 1904-02-21

Although the chill winds and sect Of
the last week have driven all thoughts oi
the good Old summer time" out O. The
minds OF the ordinary baseball fan. mag
mates and players are busy preparing for
the preliminary practice.
Nearly all contracts have been forward
ed to the players OF both leagues. and let
ters instructins the players to report have
been sent OUT.
In the local camps the players are be-
ginning to pack their dUds. Some of them
have already departed 10 tie different
health resorts. Hot Springs at prcsen; cor
tains many OF the best-known players in
the professions. Four of the number arc
members OF the st. Louis teams The
Cardinals at the Arkansas spa are Beck
ley. Burke. and Jack Taylor. while Jack
OConnor is the Browns sole representa-
tive.
IN little more than two weeks all the
PLAYERS in the major league will be en-
camped in their respective training
grounds. The Browns have been ordered
to report March Z. while the Cardinals are
due to arrive here two days earlier.
Although two or three Of the Browns are
still at outs with the management, we'll
posted fans believe that all the members
Of the team. with the possible exception
OF Jack Powell. will go South.
The big pitcher has not adjusted his
grievance with Mr.. Hedges, and at the
present writing the pair are as far apart
as t"ey were the day after Powell re-
cefved his contract calling for reduced
salary.
The Cardinals have no dissatisfied play
Nv, At,ng. ,.1D
is known TO have received cut in his
salary. and that player is Mike O'Neill. !.
And II he can regain his 1902 form the
chances are the Robisons will boost his
salary before the campaign is a month old.
McA1eer will arrive in the city the latter
March.
TROUBLE WITH BROWNS.
Nichols Will have his flock line up at
the Southern Hotel for preparatory inspec-
tion March4.
Since his reduction Powell has not Wis
ited the American League Office, nor has
any Of Hedses's emissaries called at the
big pitchers address.
But the management and Powell still
have two weeks to get together on the
salary question. and the chances are a
compromise will be made.
Unless Powell gets into line or the
Browns land another pitcher as good as
the "Boilermaker" It will hurt the at
tendance at Sportsman's Park With their
present pitching staff they can hardly I'm
fsh any better this year than they did las,
Hise and Glade may have been world
heaters in their respective leagues. but
50 far they are nothing but experiments
In fast company, and there is very little
reason to believe that either will develop
into as good pitcher as Powell in one
year.
In the American League, rooters of the
Browns are beginning to figure out the
reerlt Of the series with the Cardinals for
the local championship They already have
pictures of the Cardinals trailed In de-
feat, but when the teams meet they will
very likely have reasons to alter their
opinions. as the Cardinals will give the
Browns sizzling argument b the spring
series.
