BOISE IN
THE LEAGUE
Circuit of the P. N. L. Now In
cIudes Boise, Spokane, Butte
and Salt Lake

The circuit for the p. N. L. for the
tied says the Chronicle, and the league
will consist of Spokane, Butte, Salt
Lake and Boise.
The change of towns has also caused
the league to make a switch in man
ayers, and the men who will have
charge of the teams are as follows:
Charles Reilly, Spokane; Walter Will
mot, Butte; ]. ]. McCIoskey, Boise;
and Buck Weaver, Salt Lake.
These are the plans that have been
under consideration for some time, and
have now been put into effect The
transportation question bothered the
magnates, but It has been arranged so
that the round trip by way of Boise
Will be practically the same as a
straight jump from Butte to SAT- Lake.
This makes the problem easy and Boise
is to be admitted.
After deciding this problem the ques-
ton of management came up. The
league wanted to get the best possible
men at the head Of the teams to In
sure the public good baseball. McClos-
key, at the head OF the Boise club,
would make the new town a drawing
card so his release was secured from
Salt Lake and he VIII be posted in
Idaho.
Salt Lake is always a drawing card
anyway. and over In the Mormon town
Buck Weaver is the pet He is said to
he the most popuIar nTayer the town
has ever had, and he is the man slated
for the job of managing the Elders.
| 1t is thought the new arrangement
will please every club. The schedule
can be the more easily arranged with
Boise in the circuit. II has been de-
cided that Butte is to play two series
/ in Spokane before the Indians visit
Butte. Then. after the season is more
advanced, the other teams will play
more games in Montana.
Who McCloskey' viii have on his
! Boise team is not yet known, but he
says players never bother him. and that
is the last thing he thinks about in the
baseball business. He says he knows
where he can get the players and that
he will have team that will make all
the others hustle.
The teams for the other clubs are
practically complete. Nearly all the
old men have been retained and num-
Der of others are on the string. Ir
spite of the report that players are hard
to get this season, there are plenty oi
applications for jobs in the p. n. L.

NOT HIRING ANY GENERALS
Virginia Farmer Was Content With
Officers of Lower Rank
(Scribner's Magazine.)


Since the war some of the privates
have told with great relish of the old
farmer near Appomattox who decided
to give employment. after the surren-
der to any of Lees veterans who
might wish to work a few days for
food and small wages. He divided the
confederate employees into squads ac-
cording to the respective ranks held
by them in the army. He was unedu-
Gated. but entirely loyal to the south
ern cause. A neighbor inquired of him
as to the different squads:
who are those men working there"
Them is privates. sir, of Lees army"
We'll. how do they work."
VERY fine. sir, first rate workers"
who are those in the second group"
Them is lieutenants and captains
and they work fairly well. but not as
good workers as the privates"
Il see you have a third squad who
are they?"
Them is colonels.'
Well. what about the generals g.?
How do they work.
Now. neighbor. you'u never hear me
say one word ag'in any man who fit in
the southern army, but l amt a-gwine
to hire no generals

JAPAN's OPPORTUNITY

Public sympathy is strongly in favor
satisfaction over news of Russia's sue
cessive defeats, and general admira-
ton for the little brown islanders who
have bested them.
Russia is a world power of recog-
nized place and standing a nation of
tremendous force that has won its way
by bull dog tenacity rather than by en-
Hghtened craftsmanship. In a CEN
tury of expanding democraticy Russia
has remained an absolute despotism
where masses are densely ignorant and
the rule rigidly autocratic.
Russia is doing great things but
Russian domination In darkest Siberia
and among the Asiatic prIncipality car
ries very little civilization or enlight-
eminent Aggressiveness is the domi-
nant characteristic of the race.
Russian aggression has stalked over
Asia conquering great difficulties press
ing outward the boundaries of the en-
pire till its lines now threaten to take
in the better part of China. Further
successes meant the absorption of
China and the death knell to Japan's
abition for world power.
Japan is the natural ally of China
They are of kindred race and
should stand or fall together in a con-
fict with the Tartar and Cassack
hordes as the Teutons did In Europe
many centuries ago.
A victory for Russia in this war
would mean the plotting out of the
Hongul races in Asiatic history. 1t is
a clash of races and civilizations. I'm
aided China has been unable to cope
with the Russian. but the Japanese
are stronger race and have been maxi
ing unparalleled progress in the past
half century. 1t remains to be seen IL
they can play the dominant part and
revive the waning prestige of the Mon
golian race. II so a new world power
takes the stage and Russian aggression
In Asia win stop outside the borders
OF the Chinese Empire.

They tell story in Indianapolis
which goes to show that Thomas Tag
CART makes promises with the free
dom OF politician, and is never at a
loss to get out of them, if need be.
When Taggart was running for mayor
of Indianapolis he made to a medi-
cal association promise which was
keep. After his election delegation
waited upon him at the city hall in
Indianapolis and reminded him of his
obligation to them. The spokesman
told him that he had promised a rep
resentatiye of a certain medical or
ganization that certain things would
be done, and that he was expected to
make good. Taggart bantered the
delegation as long as he could, but
finally, when driven to his corner,
turned upon the spokesman of that
delegation and said:
did make that promise?''
"You certainly did, Mr.. Mayor.

promised that you would do this for
our society, and you ought to keep

MISPLACED CONFIDENCE.
A Stranger Comes to Town and Meets
"Friend."

A sad case of misplaced commence
was noticed at the Maine Central sta
ton, yesterday morning. A man from
another town was waiting for the
train to come which would take him
to his home. He had tarrled IN the
city over night, that is he had tarrled
as far as remaining in town was con-
cerned, but in no other way, 1or ne
showed in divers ways that he had
been going some" the night before,
and that he had hardly come TO stop
when seen at the station.
He had probably awakened that
morning with some unpleasant feelings
within him. resulting from his expert
ence on the night before, and had
sought to dispel them by partaking of
wine, sweet Wine" or some similar
beverage that is not allowed to be dis
pcnsed in SEINE places in Maine, be-
cause of the prohibitory law. In fact.
he was in that condition where he APP
peared to better advantage while lean
ing against the side of the waiting
room than he would had he essayed
to stand out where the wind could
blow on him.
The police had an eye on him. but as
he wanted to get out of town, they
We're willing that he should go. 1t was
through one Of the knights of the
nickel plated bracelets. who inter-
viewed the man, that the sad side of
his story was learned.
1t seems that when he started i'm to
forget earth'S cares for awhile by in
diligence in the cup that cheers, he
had a chum. The two had good
time together the night before and in
the morning when the man wanted to
get something to take the taste out of
his mouth, his chum volunteered to get
it for him, so the man gave him the
price Of pint, and the chum started
out.
The man waited at the station for
the chum's return, but he came not
back, and though the minutes grew in
number until there We're enough of
them to make an hour, and the mans
throat waXed even as dry as kiln dried
lumber. he looked in vain for his friend
of the night before. Finally, the
train came along. and the man got
aboard, minus his money, and minus
the pint he had longed for. but with a
quarts of the pure water from the Old
well on the farm to quench. And
such is life.
