DORSEY GOES
TO SEATTLE

Frank Dorsey, president Of the
league baseball club, left last nigh.
for Seattle, where this evening a
meeting will be held at the Butler
hotel for the purpose of giving
Portland and Seattle franchise in
the Northwestern league. A special
agreement has been secured from
the National Association whereby
the players of the Coast league
may be transferred to to the
Northwestern league and yet be re-
served in such a way that the
coast cities will have the reserve
OF them for next season. 1t is
planned to divide the Los Angeles
players between Spokane and
Butte. This influx of coast players
means fast baseball in this league.
and from now on the game should
be exceedingly popular.

NO. 1-UMPIR!NG.

The mistaken notion that one

in order to he an umpire was long
ago exploded by men well known
as umpires.
The three essentials for an UNI

Some umpires undergo a brief
preliminary training of the vocal
chords to enable them to make

and ease to their manner when

might also come in handy. though

PLAYED LIKE
SCHOOL BOYS

Things were certainly booming
in the batting line with the Indians
and Miners at Recreation park yes
terday. 1t wasn't good game,
but was exceedingly exciting.
There was the tiff between Umpire
Setley and the Miners which help
ed out. Then all the pitchers
went to pieces and threw rings
around themselves-which helped
out some more. The score of Is
to IL looks like it was a corner
lot game. 1t was to a certain ex-
tent. but there have been corner
lot games in the past when there
was more excitement than a 10
affair. Such was the game yes
terday.
Most Of the boys fattened their
batting averages. 1t was easy
money for them.
But the real fun came in the
fourth inning, when Mcintyre went
on still hunt for pitchers to take
the place of Schmidt. While he was
trying to find them so they would
warm up, Stanley kicked to Setley
