CHICAGO JOINS UNION.
VIII Pay Membership Fee and BE
Initiated.

Chicago, Jan. 4.=The city of Chi
cago is to join the amateur athletic
union. This is perhaps the first or
ganization in which the million or
more inhabitants of the city have be-
come joint member. 1t also marks
an innovation in the attitude of cities
as a government towards sport. for
Chicago will in the future have a vote
and a voice in the regulation of anna
teur sports, the same as athletic clubs.
The special park commission has de-
cided that it would be proper for the
city to join the athletic union and
voted the membership fee of $40 a
year. Max Buetner, the superintendent
of Fairgrounds, advised that the city
should be initiated in the union in or
der to aid the boys who use the play
grounds for their sports. The commits
sion recently employed a football coach
for the boys and everything is being
done to encourage healthful sports on
the Fairgrounds.
The reports of attendance from the
Fairgrounds for 1905 show an enor-
nous increase in the number of child
rem who have enjoyed the privileges
given by the city. There We're S1.337,-
SIG children admitted to the grounds
in the past year, compared with / -
Ola, 677 in 1904 and 727, 600 in 1903.

Wv. GIBBONS FOR SHERIFF..
Santa. F'e Shop Foreman Formally An.
nounces His Candidacy Today.

f'I am going into this contest for the
sherin's Office without the backing of
any faction" said J. W. Gibbons, who
announces himself formally today as a
candidate. Il have never been a fac
tional man and I have always selected
men rather than factions in my work in
politics.
Mr. Gibbons has been prominently
identified with Shawnee county politics
fer the past twelve years. He has par
ticipated in almost every campaign of
the party during that time and on sew
eral occasions was sent out by the Re-
publican state central committee to
stump the state. In 1895 he was sent
through the southern and southwest
ern portions of the state and did good
service from the speakers platform. In
1904 he worked for Curtis through the
northern part of Kansas, contributing
materially to the success of the re-
election Of Curtis to congress.
In all this time he has never been
an aspirant for Office or held an office
of any character whatsoever. He was
doomed for councilman from the Sec
ond ward a number OF years ago but

NEW SEVENTH WARD.
Shall Fourth Street Be Its Northern
Boundary?

The boundary of the new Seventh
ward viii have to be fixed by the
council before the first of March. 1t is
probable that the matter will be broach-
ed at the next meeting of the council
on January Is.
The boundary of the new Seventh
ward certainly should be established by
the first of March" said Councilman
S. A. Sweudson, chairman of the board
of election supervisors.
All of the tracts which are going
to be taken into the city will have to
be taken into the city before the first
of March in order that they may be
placed on the tax rolls 1t is of course
boundaries be definitely fixed as soon
as possible, which would mean by the
first of March also. Both the boun-
daries of the Second and the new Sew
enth viii have to be fixed. The board
of supervisors has nothing to do with
this at all, the council does the whole
thing"
The board of supervisors met last
evening in the Office of c. H Titus cleo
ton commissioner, but there was no
quorum present and no action was Ia
ken concerning the discussion over the
proposed boundaries of the new Sew
enth.
A proposition on foot is to make the
southern boundary of the new Seventh,
Fourth street and the western boun-
dairy the tracks and yards of the Santa
Fe. This would take out the extreme
northeast corner of the Second, the one
in which Councilman Griley resides. AT
present the Second ward runs north
from East Eighth avenue to the Kan
sas river and east of Kansas avenue.
The fact there are a number of tracts
which will undoubtedly be taken into
the city in course of time and the fur
Their possibility that Oakland may come
in has to be figured in, in establishing
the southern and western boundary
lines of the proposed Seventh ward.
That a scheme is being Matched by
the Republicans who are in the major
ity in the council to gerry1nander him
out of his Office is the fear of Council
man Griley, Democrat. At present the
section of the Second ward which he
represents is normally Democratic.
