beast was led into the ring, and the
auctioneer spoke eloqueEtly Of his
breeding and good points, and dwelt at
length on the fact that he had hung up
third heat record of 2:15 and gone
much faster in private trials. He took
the eye of the good-hearted turfman,
who resolved to possess him, no mat
ter what the price was. The horse
was carried along to $1,000, at which
price he was led TO the stable of the
convent.
The next day the ancient steed that
had been making the rounds of the
markets for ten years was given a rest
and the trotting horse of noble pedi-
gree and third heat mark of 2:15 was
invested with the heavy harness of the
workaday world and was hooked UP to
the covered wagon bearing the insignia
of the order. Driven by one of the sis
terhood he moved grandly out of the
main gate of the convent and struck
the high road. A smart looking pacei
hitched to a Tunabout came alongside
Of him, and the prayers and tears and
all the strength Of the timid sister who
held the lines over him could not re-
strain him from cutting loose. He
hooked UP with that PAGER and went

man stopped him in the third block
and drove him back to the convent, the
sister preferring to walk.
A week later he was raff1ed at
church fair and realized for the convent
some $1,000. Seventy-f1ve dollars of this
amount was applied to the purchase Of
a new horse for the supply wagon.

Hughie McCarren was in a generous
mood last week. He visited the press
stands of both race tracks in New Or
leans and spread the glad tidings that,
in appreciation of faithful services of
his trainer, Jerry O'Connor, he had pre-
sented him with $1,000. The generous
act was duly applauded, and McCarren
was given his full need of praise
Then, however, came the cooling out
process. What happened the next day

he searched himself the next morning

Money in Semi-P Professional Ball
~ JOHN KEARY,
Manager of the Chicago Marquettes.

In small towns especially the managers
must learn what the officers of the great
leagues learned slowly-that decency,
fairness and cIeanness in language ana
behavior are necessary to success. The
people will no more stand profanity from
ball players than from actors. 1 always
impress upon our men that in playing Al
small cities every word and act must be
as clean as If they were in their homes.

Father Marquette may have Travelled
more and hit more sparsely populated
places than the ball club that bears his
honored name, but, having been with IT
from the beginning, 1 have my doubts.
The Marquettes of Chicago have trav-
eled more, made more long trips, than
any emi-professional ball club in Amer
lea, and played in more different towns
than any club that ever Travelled. We
have covered the United States from New
York to Texas, from Florida TO Washing
ton. 1 say this not to boast Of what we
have done, but to show that 1 know
something about semi-professiOnal base
ball in the United States and its posi-
bilities.
As matter of fact, four out of five
amateur clubs, and clubs representing
small towns lose money every year. Yet
there are few that could not break even,
or make little money if handled prop
erty. | believe that an experienced man
ager can make baseball pay, ana pay falr-
Iy WELL in any town of over 5000 inhab-
itantS and, if he is in the Semi-profes-
stOna1 class, can pay his players talr
wages.
The great trouble is that in small towns
the teams are handled by enthusiasts who
know nothing about advertising the
games or working up interest in them
Besides, no one has time to devote all his
attention to the clubs, so things gener-
ally are badly handled. and the mer-
chants in the town and the enthusiasts
stand the losses.
Yet in these same towns our team has
drawn big crowds and good money. We
were a big attraction. and the people
came. Any big attraction in baseball Will
draw crowds. The National and Amer
fcan league clubs can draw crowds OF
1000 to 5000 people in towns where Ordi-
narily not 80 people will pay TO see their
! home club play a team from neighbour
/ ing town.
! One or two managers I have known
have made money simply by working up
that of some nearby town. These fellows
/ have business sense. They realize that
! the people want a real contest. Give
! their home team something to fight
against or the honor of the town to de-
| fend, and the people will pay to see it.
| Another thing that has hurt semi-pro-
/ fessional bail in the smaller towns and
/ tough. I remember one little inter
county league down in Virginia that was
| one of the most successful in it's first sea-
/ son. The home boys filled most of the
positions, playing for the honor of it. and
| the pitchers and catchers, ard maybe one
or two other men, were paid small sal
aries and given employment The first
season they had good crowds, and the
/ best people of the towns came. Each
game was a gay event. The next season
the best people quit coming, and the
third season the league broke. 1t was
because some of the players proved
| themselves towards. The game fell into
disrepute because of the actions Of the
| few.

Several Ice Dealers Get
a Stiff Sentence .l4
For Forming a Conspiracy in
Restraint Of Trade.
Five Get Year Ia The Workhouse and
Fine Of $4,000 Each.

Toledo. Ohio, June 25.-In common
pleas court today, Judge Kinkade inn
posed the maximum sentence of $4,000
fine ana one year in the wOrkhouse on
five ice men guilty of conspiracy in the
restraint of trade. The Judge said the
sentence might be mitigated if the men
made restitution.
The men sentenced are Joseph A.
Miller, who was convicted; r. A.
Beard, b. c. Lennon. II. p. Breining
and Peter II. Waters. who pleaded
guilty.
The men. all of them prominent in
business and social circles, We're taxi
en- 10 the county Jail to await the
making out Of the necessary papers to
commit them to the work house, unless
in the meantime they meet Judge Kin
kaGes requirements of restitution 10
the public.
These men were indicted under the
Valentine antitrust law for combining
to restrain trade. Under the preteXt
that the ice supply was much small
er than in recent years, these dealers
combined and advanced the price from
80 to 100 per cent. The sentence Is the
maximum under the law. If they would
escape any part of it they must pay
back to customers all overcharges and
must agree to sell ice at the price prior
to forming the combination. The law
provides for imprisonment as we'll as a
fire and if the men go to the workhouse
they will he put at hard labor.
