Ohio and Pennsylvania May he Tn
able to Survive the Season,

Youngstown, Ohio. June 1G.-There is
grave danger that the o. and p League
may not survive the season. This is due
TO the fact that the wet weather has
made IT impossible for a single team to
make expenses so far.
Last year Akron was the only city
which cleared money on the season, and
conditions are much worse this year.
Youngstown. Akron. and New Castle have
high-priced teams. and the other cities
have 70 dig for their money. while these
cities are ordinarily good drawing towns.
The cities in the southern part OF the cir
cult are partially affected.

several years ago, and IN those DAYS he
had everything. We gathered together a

brands younger brother. who is now
with Pittsburg. PLAYED first base. Doc
was easily the star pitcher Of the league
and IN addition to his work in the box
he could play nearly any position on the
club, and was a good stiCkeT. He had
several propositions to quit the little cir
cult and go into the majors, but he told
ne that he would not play ball after
leaving college. I do not think that BOs-

Hillebrand than Washington has had for
the last couple Of years

Capital Punishment in France.

The question OF the abolition or
maintenance of capital punishment
Is once-again the topic OF heated dis
cussion In many notifications of
opinion. Thus the reporter of the
budget commission for the depart
ment OF justic writes that whereas
the commission OF 1907 declared It.
self in favor OF the abolition OF capt.
tai punlshment, that OF the budget
OF 1908 has maintained without dis
cussion the grants for the wages OF
executioners and the expense of exc
cutions.
"In less than a year" he says, "a
manifest reyulslon OF opinion has
taken place in this question. Those
who formerly hoped to see the pen
atty OF death disappear are now
silent when they do not declare that
they have changed their opinion,
while its former partisans display
fresh energy in demanding its main
tenance. Recent and odious crimes
have been committed which renders
the cause easy to defend. Instead
of signing, as they did formerly, an
appeal for mercy after having found
verdict OF guilty. juries now ex-
press desire that the executioner
shall continue TO behead. The chiet
of the state has seen the exercise OF
his right of pardon hindered by un-
precedented manifestations"
The reporter adds that he him
self is in favor OF the abolition OF
the gulllotine, which he denounees
as a relic OF barbarism. II is plain
that a hot debate on the whole sub
tect Is impending in the chamber.
