expressions were heard which will not
look well in print.
Whichever way person looked
hats could be seen in regular frolic
on the wet and muddy streets.
The fairer contingent, however, met
with the greatest inconvenience and
had all kinds of trouble, the men see
ing the trials of those in dresses, con-
graduated themselves that they did
not wear woman's garb.
Around the square at times the scene
resembled gridiron with football
warriors, as men chasing their hats
with eyes intently fixed on "the ball''
would Unexpectedly bump into each
other. One young man with a brand
new hat waited until 1t had stopped
rolling, and as he looked at 1t covered
with mud. walked away with look
of disdain and proceeded to q hat
store to buy a new piece of headgear.

PRESIDENT CARSON
Offered the Management
of the Boston American
Team-Will Not Accept
tn e Central League
Presidency Again.

According to dispatches received
from South Bend, Ind, President f. X.
Carson of the Central league of Base
ball clubs has been rendered the man
agement of the Boston American
league team on a contract calling for
his services for three years at salary
of $1,000. The friends of Dr.. Carson
who know his ability as a baseball
general are not bit surprised at this
offer for the Doctors services, as he
has exercised rare judgment in hand
ling the affairs of the Central league
in spite of the fact that lot of in
discreet baseball managers were do
ing everything in their power to retard
his work. In letter to local friend
DR.. Carson says: 81 am not candi-
date for the presidency of the Central
league under any circumstances and
will not accept the Office another year
at any price as l am through for
good" The worth of DR.. Carson being
recognized by such able judges of
baseball as the Boston people are is
token to be highly appreciated by any
person connected with sporting cir
cles, and the writer predicts that the
successor of Mr.. Carson who ever he
may be will have to go very fast
pace to keep up with the work Of his
predecessor. 1t might not be out of
place to state that great deal of the
animosity that existed against DR..
Carson last year was ceated by several
cheap baseball directors who knew
less about the game than President
Carson, and again the playing man.
agements throughout the circuit have
had entirely too much criticism for
the head Of the league than they
should have been allowed to use. 1t
| is with regret that the statement Is
made that the management Of the Can
ton team is not an exception. If the
directors of the Central league wish
to be successful they must adhere to
business principles In the future and
not listen to every minor complaint
made by their managers. Entirely too
much criticism has been allowed over
| the conducting of the affairs of the
league by the players, and unless this
is stoppe disaster will follow sooner
or later. The News congratulates
President Carson upon the splendid
offer he has received and has every
faith that he will be successful If he
accepts the grand offer that has been
made to him.
