BASEBALL TEAMS TO
TRAVEL MAY MILES
Carfare Will be a Most I'm
portant Items of Expense
During the Season That
is About to Open.

In the budget of expenses of the
baseball clubs this season there Is one
item that is sure to be considerably
higher than it was In 1906. That item
is for railroad fares. Representatives
of the trunk lines gathered around
Presidents Johnson ami Pulliam when
they were In New York ut the recent
meeting ana told them that owing to
the rate regulations they would be un-
able hereafter to grant any cheap
fares and that all traffic of the base.
ballists would be at the tariff of 2
cents mile per capita. Heretofore Il
rate of 12 cents per mile has been
often secured, and MS the teams now
travel around the circuits with party
of from sixteen to twenty, instead OIL
about fifteen, as in the old days, the
Increase is going TO eat up Il number
OF admissions.
The Distance Travelled.
According to the schedules the
American League clubs will have to
travel distance of 9G,2S3 miles in or
der to fill their championship dates,
while the National League Will trav-
erse 92,155 miles in pursuance of the
same object. Assuming that each club
carries eighteen men on Il trip (and
that average is not too high, us the
Highlanders often went on tour with
over twenty in the party last season)
the amount to be paid to the railroads
for fares alone will foot up sG7,SS7 .6S,
of which the Johnsonites will furnish
$50, 1850.
If the pcnnant races were to be de-
cided by the number of miles each
club had to travel the next series for
the worlds championship would be
fought between the Pittsburgs and
the Clevclands. while the tail-cndcrs
would be the rhiladclphias in the IVA
tional and the New Yorks in the
American. The Pirates will have to
go over more than 5000 miles of terri
tory than the Phillics are scheduled
TO cover, one reason for this being
that the Smoky City men are COLI
stantly leaving home to fill Sunday
engagements in Cincinnati, Chicago
and St. Louis. The same reason ap.
plies to Cleyeland's heavy mileage.
The New York and Brooklyn teams
In the National will have great mon

WILL ENCOURAGE

Officials Plan to Make De-

Commissioner Booth and Water Su-
perintendent Smith will propose q PLAN
by which water consumers who are
provided with water meters will be ex--
empt from the payment of irrigatinG
charges for parkings maintained In
front Of their property.
Those who are irrigating on a nat
rate have been exempt from these
charges by the water superintendent at
the time the irrigation areas were
computed and 1t is the purpose Of the
administration to encourage the care
of the parkings by furnishing the wa
ter necessary for the proper irrigatton
of those areas.
1t Is proposed to make a proportion
ate deduction from the water rentafm
in September for those who have main
tanned parkings during the summer
and have used meters. The entire
area of the plat irrigated will be COM
puted and the per cent Of parking@
ascertained after which the per cent
reduction for the irrigation season wiK
be recommended and placed upon a
basis by which this feature Of the work
can be handled during the one month
instead of having the deductions mad2

new JUVENILE
COURT LAW
Michigan Tries Effec of
Treating Youths As
Offenders

MONROE, Mich, July 24.-The an
nual meeting here of the Michigan
Probate Judges association, which will
De in session three days, has topics Of
more than usual importance scheduled
for consideration. A matter of great
est Importance to the association Is
the adoption of the new juvenile court
iaw' which places the control Of all
juvenile offenders and those who are
neglected or ill-treated children under
the Jurisdiction OF the probate court.
IL is the idea of the statute to treat
juvenile offenders not as criminals but
as persons not having mind sufficient
to form criminal intent. The law
gives very great latitude to the pro-
bate judges in tho disposition of the
child. He may be returned to his pa-
rents and obliged to report to the court
at stated intervals, or he may be re-
qulred to pay fine or damage for de-
stroyed property, or he may be sent to
the industrial school at Lansing,
1t Is the general opinion among the
probate judges and others interested
IN the subject that the new law will
bring about a great progress in the
care Of Juveniles in Michigan.
The officers Of the association in
charge Of the annual meeting are:
President, Judge w. M. Smell. Sault
Ste. Marie; vice president, Judge J. M.
Harris, Charlevoix; secretary treas
urer. Judge F. H. williams, Allegan.
