EVERYTHING WORTH WHILE IN SPORT GATHERED HERE
KELLEY Gan SIT
ON THE BENCH.
Garry Hermann Says, Tho, that
Local Magnate Cannot
Play Ball.

:. Cincinnati Ohe. April 1S.--Chairman@ Herr
mann of the national commission, when APP
preached by John E. Bruce, one Of the stockhold-
ers in the st. Louis club. was Informed that
Mike Kelley's release could be purchased for
81 900. The Minneapolis club at once sent on
draft fnr that amount, when President Ban
johnson OF the American league cut in with
the statement that Mr.. Bruce did not have au-
thority to act for the st. Louis club and that
$1,000 would not be accepted for Kelleys re-
lease. ~
It is now alleged that st. Louis paid the st.
Paul club 81 800 for Kelley, and 1t is apparently
the intention to insist on his paying that
amount, tho any National or American league
club could secure him for the smaller figure.
Kelley Can Manage.
The whole Kelley case was an unsavory az
fair, and this latest development does not make
1t any more pleasant. Mr.. Hermann stated
yesterday that Kelley will be allowed to manage
the Minneapolis club from the bench, but that
he cannot play until he has secured his release
from st. Louis. George Lennon must be enjoy

guage that the Reach ball would be used in all

the adoption Of the Victor ball as the official
sphere by the directors Of the American associa-
ton. He certainly will, and in doing so he will
be upheld by the national commission, to which
the ball argument in the association has been
referred Rule ID. section 1. of the playing
rules states plainly that ''the spalding National
league ball or the Reach American league ball
must be used in all games played under these
rules" ISL sSz.t.f

The commission will not go back Of these

regardless OF the action of the American asso

1t is even question whether visiting clubs

AN INVESTMENT WORTH WHILE.

AN INVESTMENT WOhAA WHILE.
There appears to be a movement
among the leading cities all over the
country Just now to build homes for
their local Y. M. c. AS. It is 8. good
symptom. It indicates that the peo-
ple are placing some of the results of
the prosperity of recent years in pub
lie investments that are worth while.
Topeka was early in this movement.
and now the magnificent building at
Quincy and Ninth streets is nearing
completion. It will be decided credit
to the city in an architectural way,
and from a practical standpoint it will
be OF great value to this community.
Aside from the splendid moral in
fuence of the organization for which
1t is built. the educational and social
advantages afforded by the 7. NJ. c. a.
are of great benefit to any city.
The Y NJ. c. A. building which will
soon be ready for dedication is costing.
$4,000. The amount originally sub
scribed for 1t shrunk somewhat owing
to the Devlin failure. and funds are
also necessary to furnish the building
To do this the officers of the associa-
ton are now trying to raise $4,000 in
fifteen days. At this writing approx
mately $4,000 OF this amount has
been subscribed, and it is desired that
the remaining $1,000 should be Sc
cured this week.
In order that this result may be at
tanned 1t is hoped that those who have
not yet made subscriptions will do so
at once. and there Is no law against
those who have already subscribed
increasing their subscriptions. It is a
splendid investment to make for To-
peka, both present and future. An
organization like the Y. NJ. c. A.,
equipped in a building such as this
one viii be, adds much to the desira-
bility OF Topeka as a place of resi-
dence.
Now is the time to subscribe.

The use OF window boxes is not to

grow the hardy types Of climbers IN

perior to boxes planted in the window
or on the veranda.
window box is usually eight inches
to foot in depth, and the same IN
width, the length varying. It should
never be less than six inches deep. It
should be made of seven-eighths inch
lumber and should conform in shape
to the window or veranda to which it
is attached. It should be either hung
to the veranda railing or rest on
brackets. 1t is often placed on the
window sill if the latter is wide
enough.

has good drainage. Holes of good size

gresham Curtis Of getting a railroad

turned over TO Curtis as an adminiStra-

this measure than Senator Dolliver, for
instance, has had to do with the adj

difference II the bill was formulated in
