Feathered Beauties.

Saturday, S. B. Bane made
trip to Portland in the morning
and returned in the eveneng. He
brought back two pairs of the
most beautiful pheasants-a pair
each of Golden and Silver pleas
ants-both legal tender. The
Golden phesants are very beauti-
full ard the male bir / is particular
attractive to gaze upon. The
Silver pheasants are younger
birds, and although already quite
a bit larger than the Golden
pheasants are not yet matured
and their beauty is not so appar-
ent as that of the latter birds.
While in Portland Mr.. Bane
arranged to have some Amherst
pheasants shipped him in a short
time. When these arrive he will
have, so far as is known, the on
ly strain of these pheasants in
the United States aside from
those possessed by Homer Dav-
export, who has a famous pheas-
ant pen. M. Bane has also ar
ranged for a nnmber of Bohemi-
an pheasants. All told, on the
arrival of these birds he will have
five varieties otpheasants- China,
Golden, Silver, Amherst and Bo.
hemian.
He says that the China pheas.
ants are naturally the widest o.
all birds of this family. Pleas
ants do better, lay more and
everything in a domestic state
than when running wild. Thi!
fact is most encouraging to Mr.
Bane and was one of the mai1
inducements to him for going in
to pheasant raising so largely a
lhe has. It is worth anybody
time to take a look at his pleas

close-we were not surprised a,
the result, which was I8 to IA in
favor of Albany.
It is stated that the game was
witnessed by the largest crowd
ever assembled in Albany on a
similar occasion, and it was a
hard-fought, exciting contest.
Thus, honors are even so far and
these teams will likely have a
third game to decide the champi-
onship. AS each team has won
on its own floor, it is thought
that the third game should be
played on a neutral field, and
Portland is talked of as suit
able place to settle the matter OF
supremacy.

Saturday evening some 225
people went over to Albany on a
special train. The crowd was
made up of basket ball enthusi-
asts and Woodmen OF the World.
We learn that the Ground up'' of
the latter was a great success.
The greatest interest centered
in the game Of basket ball
between the girls teams of OAC
and Albany. In a game played
on OAC's field the week before,
the latter were the victors and a
return game. was arranged to
occur Saturday evening. In the
interim Ia grippe fastened its
fangs on one or two OF our girls
and an effort was made on ouI
part to have the meeting post,
poned, but for reasons OF he1

do this. Under the circumstances

DoNovAN's CASE IS QUEER.
The Brooklyn Manager Was Practically
on the Shelf.

Chicago, Dec. 21.-When Patsy Don
ovan put his name on contract to
manage the Brooklyn club in 1906 the
act marked the close of one of the
most peculiar incidents of recent base
ball history. There is little question
that Donovan, for more than a year,
has practically been on q big league
blacklist. Until the Brooklyn an
nouncement came it looked as if Dono-
van either must quit professional ball
or confne his efforts to the minor
leagues or to the outlaw game.
In both of those he has had ample
opportunity to embark, but all last
year he was unable to secure an offer
from any big league management. This
was not because he could not be used
as a player, for inexperienced young
sters were being taken by various
clubs and Brooklyn expects Donovan to
play as we'll as to manage next season,
when he surely will not be faster than
he was last summer
Donovan has yet to receive any notice
from the American league that he is
out of that organization, not having
been notified that he would not be
wanted, either as manager or as play
er, when StahI succeeded him a year
ago. Failure to tender him a contract
last spring, of course, operated as re-
lease Just as the failure of st. Louis to
pay him his salary a year earlier let
him out of the National
Donovan compromised with St. Louis
last summer, getting part of his money.
He has never heard from the American
league in regard to his standing with
that organization.

PRINCETON WANTS CHANGES.
Football Representatives of the Tiger
to Plead for Modification.

Princeton, n. J., Dec. 21.-President
woodrow Wilson and the faculty COM
mittee on outdoor sports of Princeton
university announced today the princi-
pal changes in the methods of playing
and conducting football which Prince
ton believes to be- essential for the
proper reformation of the game. They
will urge earnestly on all suitable oc-
casions the following:
First-That in the playing of the
game all interference be abolished.
Second-That all coaching by men
who are paid in any way, directly or
indirectly. or who receive their Expenses
or any part of them be done away with.
Third-That the number of intercolie-
giate contests be materially decreased
and the length of the season for such
contests be correspondingly shortened.
The first suggestion is for the pur-
pose of abolishing all mass plays and
of restoring the original open game
The second suggestion is designed to
place the game upon a purely anna
teur footing and to restore to the play
ers themselves the initiative of which in
recent years they have been deprived.
The object of the third suggestion is to
decrease the amount of time and
energy which the players are now
obliged to devote to the game.
