to It, Walcott was a real champion
at 142 pounds, but after badly injur-
ing his hand in shooting scrape
he was compelled to pass up the
game.
Then came Martin Duffy, who
claimed the title by virtue of his
victories over RUDE Ferns and Mat
ty Matthews in 1903. Duffy held
the championship for nine months,
meeting six men, and then went
down and out before that husky
youngster, Honey Melody.
Melody was the boss in this divi-

1908 (eight months), and defended
it against five opponents in that

a face-the face of Jim Morgan.

with the fairy wings of love, flew

the OUTLAWS" Tri-state league calls
attention to the fact that a large
number of excellent ball players,
who are regarded as the proper
ty" of magnates of the National
Association and other leagues oper-
ating under the national agree
ment. have found a haven of refuge
in the independent league. Among
the most conspicuous are Sebring.
Wolverton, Clay and Unglaub.
These players were dissatisfied
with the price fixed by their en-
ployers for their services, and as
they had no recourse to appeal,
they were compelled to go to the

aged by men who were for years
conspicuous in the councils of the
big leagues. The salaries paid the
outlaw players are said to be in
excess of what they would receive
in organized baseball, as the rivalry
among the teams is very keen, and
as the owners are practically all
wealthy men. the drain on their re-
sources is so small it is no cause
for alarm. The existence of
strong baseball organization like
the Tri-state league, is causing con-
siderable worry to the managers
of the organized article. Each
year the penalty for jumping to
the outlaws is made more severe

gruntled players from casting lots

Outside it was certainly dreary.
Rain splattered on muddy roads
and dripping hOusetops; but from
out the windows half opened of the
old Morgan homestead there came
the sound of music-the music OF
quadrille awakened by the rusty
clanking of yellow keyed piano,
and the creak of the strings of an
equally venerable violin. From
time to time the sound of merry
young voices broke into the I'M
melodious melodies.

with all the chivalry of the south,
generous with that generosity that
would give out the hearts blood
rather than fail in the family tradi-
ton, he had cheerfully consented
to his daughter Ann giving her
young friends birthday party.
But the old mans heart was very
sad. Prosperous once, he was now,
in the winter of his age, ruined
man. Everything mortgaged; he
had not even right to the roof over
him. ooh, JIM" he communed bit
