ST Louis teams which began on Saturday.
Home runs on the southern grounds are
not quite such wonderful affairs as they are
on most of the fields in the north. There
are several short fences.
Jack Ryan, who caught for the ST. Louis
Nationals in 1903, will be with the COLUMBUS
team this year He has reported.
Lachance has not been batting very well
for the Boston Americans in practice, and
there is some prospect that Grimshaw, the
young first baseman secured from the Buff
falo team, will succeed him on first.
Yarn of a factionaI fight in the Cleveland
club has travelled north from the southern
practice of the team. More kinds of trou-
BILE than one appear to be in store for Ma
poleon Lajoies first managerial year.
Rip Raglan, who was Cincinnati Red
for short time, had sweet revenge on his
old comrades at Birmingham last Thursday.
The Reds would not have scored run but
for errors of the Birmingham fielders.

Good work by Joe Yeager. who has been
the utility man of the New York Americans
in the south, shouldn't be overlooked when
a running jump is taken at the benefit de-
rived from the spring practice, since the
team has been away from home. Yeager
has been playing better ball than he did
for Brooklyn or Detroit. Both clubs thought
him too weak, and he was finally permitted
to drift to minor league company, from
which Griffith rescued him.

For Trial Judge in Each

Joseph T. Robinson, who represents
the Sixth congressional district Of Ar

gard to the pressing necessity Of re-
lieving the congested condition in the
territorial courts ne said:
Il suppose there is no impropriety in
my stating that Delegate B. S. Nc.
Guire win likely introduce bill early
during the coming session Of congress
to provide for the appointment Of a
new trial judge for each district in
Oklahoma, with probably provision
in the bill that the supreme court
shall aDportion the work among those
trial judges, and an effort win be made
to secure prompt passage OF the bill
and this viii be done without regard
to statehood because in the event the
statehood bin passes It will be neces.
sary and proper to have this legisla
tion in order to have the dockets OF
the various districts IN proper condi
tion. II 1 remember correctly, a SINH
lar bill was passed at the last session
of congress relating to Indian Terri
tory, but it did not extend to Okiaho-
ma, and the necessity for it in my
judgment, which is based upon prac.
tical experience and information fur
nished by prominent lawyers, is quite
as great here as It was there SO far
as myself am concerned, expect to
cooperate with your delegate In an at
tempt TO secure this much needed
legislation The district court in this
district, though working almost con
tinuously is badly behind. though this
condition is in no wise due to neglect
or Indifference upon the part Of the
judge who is sitting in that court, for
my observation is that he expedites
the business in every way possible"
