REDS NEW FIRST BAsEOIAN.
Cincinnati Lands Charley Carr From
Cleveland.


Chicago, Nov. 25.-Charley Carr of
the Cleveland club, is the star landed
by President Hermann to play first
base for the Reds in 1906. After a
long session of the American league
from all clubs in the league and the
deal was closed.
Carr has been playing ball in fast
company for seven years. In 1899 he
ed to Richmond where he refused to
go, finishing the season at Atlantic
City, where his work was so sensation
al that Ed Barrow secured him for his
Toronto team in the Eastern league.
He played at Toronto in 1900 and
1901. In 1902 he managed the Jersey
City club with conspicuous success,
pulling it up from last place to third.
When Barrow went to Detroit in 1903
he took Carr with him. He played
there two years and was traded to
Cleveland for Hickman.

Chicago, Nov. 25.-Leo De Tray win

last night he believed the boy would

WHO Will LEAD THE TIGERS?

Princeton Football Fans Discuss
Teams Choice for 1906.
Princeton, N. J.. Nov. 25-As the reg
ular meeting of the Princeton football
team has not yet been held to choose
captain for next year, there is much
wonder as to who will take charge of
the Tigers in 1906. Cooney. who led
the team so valiantly through the pres
ent season, viii undoubtedly receive an
offer to captain the eleven again, ~
there is some question as to whether he
viii accept.
Although Princeton has probably had
more junior captains than any other of
the big Six" yet it remains a fact
that nearly every time the same man
has acted as captain for two years
straight the eleven met defeat the Sec
ond time. If Cooney should refuse the
captaincy the most likely man for the
position would probably be H. Dillon,
OF, who played right guard this year.

Many people smile when the name
"Roberts" is mentioned but 1t should
not be forgotten that there were not
enough of those to defeat him in the
recent election. Whatever ailIngS
Mr.. Roberts may have, and like others
he has many, it must be conceded
that in the good roads proposition he
has always shown the deepest interest
He has been sincere, honest, and APP
parently after facts and the better

Roberts hopes for personal aggrandize-
ment through this, but If he accom-
plishes good is he not entitled to 1t?
Isn't it what many bigger men are
hunting for? Isn't it what many
lesser men strive for and fail to get?
Isn't IL this latter that is sometimes
at the back Of the smile? Mr. Roberts
deserves hearty commentator for his
interest in this good roads movement.

thus it developed that the State could
not even prove that Carter was an
agent Of the Singer company.
1t is no wonder the district attorney

that he appeared to be worried, be-
cause there is no doubt OF one of two
things that he was grossly

collision between some Of the wit

That Pear Blight.
Secretary Parry urges 0rchardists
to Get Rid Of il Now.

Secretary }. II. Parry of the State
Board Of Horticulture sends out the
following communication which should
be read carefully by every orchartist
in the valley.
'ln many of the counties of this
state pear blight prevails in epidemic
form, and the situation is becoming
quite serious. Many of the orchards
are already doomed, and unless ener-
getic measures are taken to stamp out
the disease the pear industry of the
state will soon be thing of the past
To date, no remedy has been dis
covered, and the only recourse is for
the orchardiSt to eXterminate the mic
robe which causes it, by cutting out
and burning every particle of blight
when trees are dormant. Were it pos
sible TO do this in a thorough manner
the disease would be banished from
the state.
Not a single case of blight should be
allowed to remain over the winter in
the orchard, or within a half mile or
so from 1t, as 1t Is most virulent con-
tagious disease, spreading very rapid
ly in the growing season. Every tree
of the pome family, including the
apple, pear, ounce, Siberian crab APP
pie, wild crab apple, mountain ash,
service berry, and all species of Haw-
thorne should be examined for this
purpose, the blight being the same in
all. The disease has also been discov-
ed in stone fruits, it having attacked
apricot trees in this state, and also in
Colorado. The orchardist should not
stop short of absolute destruction Of
every case, for a few overlooked may
go long way toward undoing ali his
work by re-seeding his orchard with
the germs Of the disease
In cutting out the disease use a
clean knife or saw, dsinfected after
each cut in a per cent solution of
carOolIc acid or corrosive subIimate.
Especial care must be used in handl-
ing the latter dlsinfectant, as it is a
deadly piOson. Cut off the limbs II
inches or more below the. effected
part, to be sure that the whole of it is
removed, take the same out of the
orchard and burn. Cutting out the
blight may be done ut any time in the
winter or spring up TO the period
when growth begins. 1t would be well
to look the trees over several times
during the winter TO be certain that
the blight is 'cmplctely eXterminated.
In order TO do the inspecting thor
oughly 1t is necessary to go from tree
to tree down the row, or in case of
large trees to walk up one side Of the
row and down the other, as in simply
walking through the orchard it is i'm
possible to be certain that every case
of blight has been cut out.
1t is important TO cut out blight
whenever 1t is found, even in the
growing season. AT that time, how
ever, 1t cannot be hoped to make

A sample of the intelligence and
real interest some legislators have in
the welfare OF the state and its inSti.
tutions isShown in an incident that
happened when the legislative body
was being entertained in Logan.
Two OF these, with ladies', were quar-.
tered at a certain hotel. Before noon
one OF these large three seated lud-
low spring wagons was sent to convey
them TO the college. The gentlemen
became furious at the indignity thus
heaped upon them and refused to get
into such vehicle The college was
called by phone and the gentlemen
insisted on carriage being sent to the
hotel The information that there
was none to be had was returned, and
explanation as TO the large number
OF cOnNeyanccS required was offered,
but this did not appease them. The
talkcr then informed the person at
the college That they would not come
to the college until carriage was
sent, and the reply came "all right. 4"
This was unexpected and the phone
was hung up, with the gentleman in a
fury. There was talk of appropria-
ton, voting against it, and a whole lot
OF stuph such as i jackasS ignorauus
would get of, However, somebody at
the college took the matter in hand
and after a twO hours wait the legis-
latorS found a carriage at the hotel
door for them. 1t will be interesting

watch them in their voting and cx.
