CAN COVER UP PLAYERS.
New Way Found TO Keep Man on
Certain Club.


Little Rock, Ark. March IA clause
unknown TO many managers Of ball clubs
may attract especial attention throughout
faHdom in the near future. inasmuch as
the law may be so followed as to permit
managers 10 cover up players more
readily than in the past. when farms"
for players were tolerated, If not open
ly approved.
The baseball law in question stipulates
that no ball player. owning stock in a
club may be sold or drafted BY another
club without his consent
The case came up locally in the case Of
Bill Douglass. the big first baseman OF
the Little Rock club. Douglass owns
stock in the Little Rock association val
ued az $50 at par. Therefore according
to the ruling. he cannot be sold or draft
ed without consent OF himself He Is
willing TO sell his stock. however. but
wants for ]. In the event OF his stock
being sold. he will have 10 abide by the
action Of the Little Rock management
in case OF sale, or else retire from active
participation in games played under the
national organization. Douglass has been
sold TO Vancouver, in far British Colum-
uld' Ddt says ne ldS enough HioheH 10
settle down in Wellsville, No, FOR the rest
OF his natural days.
The ruling was made originally 20 pro
tect an old ball player who had accumu-
lated a little money and invested II in a
club he had a liking for said Manager
Finn, speaking of the law. 1T was in
tended TO protect a player who had chosen
a home in some city. and prevent a club
in a class higher league drafting him. or
prevent the sale Of the player. But I
can readily see where manager, having
a PLAYER whom he doesn't want 20 get
away from him. can give the PLAYER one
share of stock and then absolutely own
him or cover him up from draft. / think
the law will finally be repealed. because
II leaves an opening for funny work.

GASOLINE LAUNCHES IN
THE FOREST SERVICE.

A. E. Cohoon, supervisor of the
Siuslaw forest reserve, has three
gasoline launches in operation and
another under construction for the
convenience of the service. One
launch is on the Umpqua, another on
the siuslaw, and a third on the Alsea
river. The fourth launch is being
built for Smith river, branch of the
Umpqua inlet, which is navigable for
12 miles
All of these streams have a num-
Der of miles of navigable water. usu-
ally Just as far as the tide reaches.
on the main trunk and its branches.
The Umpqua river of itself runs
back nearly 80 miles, the Siuslaw
over 20. while the Alsea extends back
into the interior perhaps Is.
The government has been put to
cOlSlueTdDle eAptllSt py iOl hu'
launches at the service of the rang
ers. One time Mr.. Cohoon had to
wait whole day to cross one Of the
streams. BY the rules governing the
boats, they can only be used for gov,
ernment purposes. AT any time when
a traveller or settler can be aided
when in trouble by the launches and
the man or men in control the in
structions are that they shall be put
at the service Of the unfortunate.
In fact, this is one of the princi-
pies Of the whole service, and the set
tiers frequently find themselves in
debted to the rangers who look after
the interests of the government.

"The Land Of Fires" is the name
given to America in a recent number
of the Outlook, and the facts given
in support of the appropriateness of
the title are forceful, and all the more
so because the table ignores fires in
American cities where the aggregate
loss was below $1O,OOO,OOO--a large
sum in itself.
The table includes a number of Ca
madam cities, with the city Of Hya-
cinthe and its $15,00O,O0 fire Of
1876; st. Johns, New Brunswick,
with it's fire loss in the same amount
in 1877, and it reached down to the
continent OF South America, with
Guayaqull, Ecuador, and its 1895 fire
entaillng a loss Of $4,000, ,OOO-but
1t is to cities within the United States
the attention of the observer will be
directed, for the losses are appalling,
