LOG CABIN" GREAT
BASEBALL RESORT
CantilIon's Place in Chi
cago Headquarters for
Players.

with the baseball season at an end
now comes the interesting part OF the
year. when the players and fans gather
around the fires at the Log CABIN II
Chicago and fight the battle all over
again.
The players have broken training, ana
no one cares If once in a while they 90
breast the mahogany and indulge mod
eratelv in that which loosens their
tongues. giving up secrets of the dia-
mond which do not find their way INTO
the newspapers as rule.
The Log Cabin, which IS owned oy
Joe and Mike CanuiIon, rs Ihe winter
baseball center Of the universe, accord
ing 10 John r. Bulman, in the Mime
apolfs Tribune. There they have the
addresses OF every one prominent IN
baseball. and generally can locate the
men who have been out of the game
gorBed with news during the summer
months, but in the winter time they
have to fall back on the Cabin. 1t is
the first place to which players, mag
mates, and umpires resort when strik-
ing Chicago.
Everybody Goes There.
Many OF them have time idle on their
hands, and they can generally kill It for
keeps at the Cabin. The player fra
teri. ses and abuses TO his hearts con-
tent the umpire who soaked him dur
ing the season, and they ais enjoy
their privilege OF telling their managers
just what they really think of them,
and they run no risk of being fired,
either.
J. Peck Sharp. who knows more bal
players than anyone else in the country,
VIII continue in charge OF the Cabin.
and that IN Itself bespeaks a successful
season, as Peck is a great drawing card
and baseball men go miles in order to
have a word with Peck. He is too fat 20
play now, but never misses a good game.
When anyone questions Peck's standing
in the baseball world all ne has TO do
is pull out his pass to the American
League grounds, and IL is SHOWN thai

him the first complimentary book issued

LIFTS EMBARGO
ON PATENTS
President MOdifieS Order
Requiring Examination
of Claims

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 1s.-I
Senator Fulton has received from the !
president a copy of an order which |
he has just issped, virtually revoking |
the order of Secretary Hitchcock sus-
pending all public land entries until |
they can be examined ON the ground
by special agents.
The president has amended the order |
of Mr.. Hitchcock that homestead and
timber entries may now pass to patent
when the entrymen have complied with
the law and submitted proof thereof,
no examination being necessary.
In fact, the presidents order requires
examination by special agents only
when there is something suspicious
about an entry which might indicate
fraud, or where homesteader is seek
ing to comr,u e.
| This modification is in line with the
suggestion made to the president by
Mr.. Fulton earlier in the week, and
entirely removes the objections that
have come from homesteaders and tim
ber entrymen in Oregon.
Where No Examination Is Needed.
The presidents order states that no
4 examination by a. special agent shall
be required in the following classes of
Ientries:
/ Final five-vear homestead entry
hereafter made, where proof is salts
factory and complete.
2-Final certificates and receipts in
final f1ve-year homestead proofs here
tofore or hereafter made, when proof
is satisfactory and complete.
3-Homestead entries commuted on
ceded inlands lands on which annual
payments are required
4-Entries where the claimants COM
pliance with the law has been estab-
lished by contest or other regular adj
ve~ea rrooaedinps
5-Entries confirmed which may
have been confirmed by virtue of any
act of congress
: Where No Residence is Required.
6-Selections and entries in which
no residence or Improvement is re-

D. r. Maginnis, known In every city

few equals and no superiors in the
same territory, dropped into Lewiston
this morning to meet the subcommittee
Of the "21" committee.

and that he is a success at 1t is at

to tell Mr.. Maginnis represents a

Mr.. Maginnis is no stranger in this

he was pilot of lot of agricultural
editors He wanted to show them gar
den spots and sections of country that
had a future before them. Naturally
he visited this city and when the edi-
tors returned home they had lot OF
nice things to say about the valley OF
the Snake and Clearwater rivers.
But there is more distinction for Mr.
Maginnis than all that. You cannot
get him to admit 1t, but the building o.
the Culdesac extension of the Northern
Pacific is due to him more than to th'
Individual energies or reports of an!

decided it would give him more SatiSfaC-
ton should the fund be devoted to the
furtherancc of peace in the world OF
industry. In his dispatch to the Norwe-
gan parliament accepting the peace
prize Mr.. Roosevelt said: After much
thought | have concluded that the best
and most fitting way to apply the
amount of the prize is by using it as n
foundation to establish at Washington
permanent industrial peace commit
tee. The object will be to strive for
better and more equitable relations
among my countrymen who are en-
gagged, whether as capitalists or wage
workers, i'll Industrial and agricultural
pursuits. This will carry out the pur-
pose of the founder of the prize, for in
modern life it is as important to work
for the cause of just and righteous
peace in the industrial world as in the
world of nations"
Shortly after the award to him of the
peace prize the president designated AS
