IN a labor day article published by
one Of the leading daily papers, the
president of the International Typo
graphical Union said:
CAS- compared with four years ago,
believe that the condition of organized
labor has been much improved And
the condition of organized labor four
years ago, as compared with that four
years previously, will also show won
derful Improvement. Four years ago
the members of the international Typo
graphical Union working at the book
and job branch of the trade were labor
ing nine hours per day, fifty-four hours
per week; today these members are
working not more than eight hours per
day, or forty-eight hours per week.
Wages in our trade during the past
four years have been materially ad-
vanced, the total increase representing
millions of dollars. We find that
wherever the eight hour day has been
in effect for a year or more wage in
creases are forthcoming, and with COM
paratively little friction. AS a general
proposition, of course wages have
not increased In proportion with the
upward trend in the cost of living. The
advance in the cost of living has been
by leaps and bounds, but through the
trade-union movement we have at
least been able to lessen the burden of
that increased cost to our members. 1t
is the unorganized wage Garner who is
suffering because of the unprecedented
increase in the necessities Of life; his
wages remain stationary.

In order to cover a point upon which
there was some discussion last year,
the following legislation was enacted:

in the line until the ball is put in play
II was also determined that the for
ward pass or tripping or hurdling by
the side that did not put the ball in
play in scrimmage. should be penal
lied fifteen yards.
In order to more clearly settle the
point about the rights of side on a
fair catch, it was enacted that man
should be regarded as having an oppor-
tunity to make fair catch when it
was possible for him to reach the ball

In order to prevent signalling by one
man and a catch and run by another,
it was legislated that if one man of the
side signals his intention of making
fair catch, and then another of his side
who did not signal, makes the catch,
this player may not run with the ball
nor is he entitled to the privileges COM
ing from fair catch, but the ball
must be put down at the point where
he caught it for a scrimmage by his
side.
All questions of hurdling were put
within the jurisdiction of the referee. =

LOCAL AND GENERAL SPORTS
Football Rules For the Season of 1907.

Nearness of the football season
arouses interest in the rules for this
sport Spalding's official guide an
nounces that the actual matter of the
rules has not been materially changed
owing TO the satisfaction that was
found with the wholesale revision
which took place in the rules of 1906
The particular detail of the few altera-
tions follows later.
Meantime, it is worth while to look
over the new arrangement and the
headings, which will give a fair idea
of the general plan.
First comes the rules relating to the
field and the ball. Then those relat-
ing to the number of players and sub
stitutes, then the length of the game
and scoring. Following these come
definitions of all the terms used. This
group of definitions is followed by
rules relating to the kickoff and the
position of players on scrimmage as
well as kickoff, kick-out. punt-out and
place-kick. also on free kicks Then
come sections covering the putting of
the ball in play and the detail of the
game. Following these. unlawful in
reference with play, obstruction of op-
ponents. passing or throwing the ball.
and on and off side. Then the rules
relating to the necessary gain on downs
and distance Of the kick, as well as a
description of try at-goal.
The next two groups govern the
conduct of players as we'll as the con-
duct of persons other than players.
Following these come penalties and the
duties of the officials, with brief of
rules over which each has control APP
pended to these are notes giving brief
ly the suggestions and interpretations
placed on the rules.
The main alterations are as follows:
An increased length of the game Ow-
ing to the fact that it was found under
the new rules the players were rather
less exhausted than in the old game. it
was determined to increase the playing
time another ten minutes by adding
five minutes to each half
1t was voted to continue the method
of two umpires, but to define their du-
ties more specifically, so that one
would aid the referee in decisions down
the field. This one is practically an

outfit includes some of the best known
ball players in the country. The team
will lay off Friday, but Saturday and
Sunday games will be played with the
Medicine Hat team, champions of the
Canadian league.
Saturday evening Manager Jessup re-
ceived telegram from Rolly Johnson
stating that he would be here in time
for the game this afternoon. Johnson
will be played at third base while Fish

Tom Plummer played with Johnson on
the Quincy team, and he states that he
is a star, covering lots of ground and
hitting the ball on the baziz.
T. Fisher has ambitions to become a
first baseman. He claims that this Is
his natural position. Fisher can play
so many positions that it has been hard
work for him to determine where he
fits in best At first he thought he
was born to be catcher. Then he de-
cided he was a pitcher. Later Tacks
decided that his mission in life was to
romp in the outfield. This summer
Manager Jessup decided that Tacks was
third baseman. and the fans agree
that Jessup made a wise decision, but |
Fisher believes that he is better at
first than any other place. We pre-

Story Of the Game.

Dunkirk made it's first run in the
second. Wills led off with a single
and was advanced to second on Carmi-
chael's infield out Wolfe then poled
a hot one to right, which Plummer
gathered in and heaved to Jessup in an
effort to catch Wills at the plate. To
some of the fans it looked like Jessu D
got his man, but Jumps Lally ruled him
safe. 1t was an extremely close play.
In the sixth Hay led off with a single,
which Weaver made a gallant bid for,
Bambrough sacrificed him and Perdieu
popped out to Horn. Gray brought

PIummer Is Faster.

Tom Plummer, the old Richmond
right fielder, who finished last season
with the Quincy, Iowa, state league,
was also watched closely. Tom did not
do any batting, but he showed that he
was much faster than when he was
here in the spring. He pulled off one
rafting good catch just back of second
base, taking a pop up off his shoe
strings by fast sprint. On the bases
he showed excellent form. Tom scor-
ed the only run made by the locals.
Owing to Third Baseman Johnson's
failure to report, Fisher was placed at
third base, while Burns, the Decatur
slugger, worked at first. Both men
put up fast fielding games. Parker,
the Portland infielder, played a splen-
did game. Parker drove in our lone
sonme run with a screaming double,
while in the ninth he prevented two
blue runners from crossing the pan by
a spectacular stop over second bag. 1t
was clean robbery. Fleming worked
nicely in left field while Jessup and

Dunkirk, 2; Richmond, 1.

Manager Jessup's galaxy of minor
league stars wearing the Richmond
gray, were defeated in their first game
Saturday afternoon by the Dunkirk
Blues, reinforced by two of the star
players of the Portland 1. o. league
team, Gray and Bambrough. The
game was pretty pitchers battle and
was played mostly in drizzling rain.
Hits were very sparse, but the fielding
of both outfits was of high order.
Burns, first baseman for the locals, is
credited with the only error and this
wabble came in the ninth.
Harry Hay was very effective, espec-
tally when the locals needed hits for
runs. Horn was back in his old form,
having good speed, control and change
of pace. The big fellow breezed six

was the center of all eyes. The mid
get gave a good illustration of why
his services are demanded by the ma
jor leaguers. He only had one field
ing chance, which was handled clearly.
At the bat he faced Hay four times
and bagged two singles. The first
single was made off the first ball pitch
ed by the underhand wonder. 1t was
a beaut of bunt which Bush beat out
by remarkable sprinting. His second
hit was a clean drive between first and
Bush appears to be faster on
his feet than Ritter.
