VINITA WILL
OPEN AT TULSA
Schedule of Missouri Valley
League Adopted.

The magnates of the Missouri Val
ley League assembled yesterday after
noon in the last formal session to b
held before the opening Of the cham
pionship season on May H. The
meeting was held at the Baltimore
hotel, Kansas City, and lasted from
O'Clock until e. 4 schedule Of u.
games was adopted, and all arrange
ments for the season was completed.
! Not one change was made in the
original draft Of the schedule submit
ted by S. B Roe, of Sedalia. The
championship season will open on
Sunday May IA, and will close on Sun
day, September II. The opening
games will be as follows: Fort Scott
at Parsons, Pittsburg at Webb City,
Muskogee at South McAlester and
Vinita at Tulsa. No Monday games
will be played each Monday during
the season being an of day for all
clubs The full schedule will be pub
lished probably Monday
Besides the adoption Of schedule,
the league ratified the action Of the
president in transferring the Bartles-
vile, l. T. franchise to Tulsa /. r.,
and the Coffeyville, Kans., franchise
to South McAlester, j. T.
With these changes the circuit is
now composed Of the following cities:
Fort Scott, Parsons and Pittsburg, ks.
Webb City, No; Muskogee, Vinita,
Tulsa and South McAleSter, l. T.
Those present yesterday were Rich
ard Robertson, Jr. president; II. c.
Ernich, Fort Scott; John Hamilton,
Jr., and L. J. Galbreath, Parsons; o.
H. Baldwin and VIM. Schiefelbein,
Pittsbu.g; Judge Jesse Frankenberger
Webb City; e. NJ. Ware, Muskogee;
A. G. Mars, Vinita; Chas. e. Shaft,
Tulsa; Mr.. Shaft also represented
South McAlester by proxy.
The club at South McAlester will
be backed by the traction company at
that place, and it is probable that ].
B. Roe Of Sedalia, will manage the
club. Roe win visit South McAlester
April 5 with Chas. E. Shaft, Of Tulsa.
He viii probably be a stockholder in
the club and will assume the active
management if agreeable arrange
ments can be made. Roe managed
an independent club at Sedalia for six
years before Dr. Shively organized the
old Missouri Valley League Roe was
closely associated with DR.. Shively in
placing the old league on its feet, and
he took charge Of the Sedalia club in
that organization. Roe isa capable
manager, and if he assumes control at
South McAlester, there is every rea-
son to believe that that club will be
closet to the top Of the heap at the
close af the season.
The meeting yesterday showed each
club to be in the best Of shape. All
the managers and club owners are
and highly enthusiastic over
the prospects. The playing lists are
almost complete in each city in the
circuit, and on account Of the unu-
sual number Of exhibition games each
club win play, the teams viii open
the season in the bcst Of trim.

Forecast of the Weather and
Other Troubles.

The month Of April promises to be
a record-breaker According to the
signs OF the Zodiac there will be some
thing doing ali through the month.
The moon crosses the equator about
the first; the city election will be held
on the 4fh, aud the gang" and other
also rams will get full on the 5th.
Palm Sunday happens on the 10Th, the
Easter hats will almost kill father on
the 22nd, and Easter Sunday will
come In on the 23rd.
The moon will spend her last quar-
ter on the 26th and be ia Perigee on
The 10Th; but il is expected that her
friends will bail her out. These are
