MUNC|E IS ANXIOUS
TO ENTER LEAGUE.
Fans in That City Urging the
ShamroCks to Accept
A Franchise
MEETING ON THURSDAY.
AT THAT TIME THE ATHLETIC
ASSOCIATION THERE WILL
MAKE KNOWN ITS FINAL DE-
CISION IN THE MATTER.

Muncie. Feb. 12-Clarence Jessup of
Richmond, and Phil O'Neill, of An
derson, who hold the franchises for
their respective cities in the Indiana
Ohio baseball association were here
yesterday comforting with representa-
tiveS of the Shamrock Athletic club,
which was recently awarded the fran
chise for Muncie. The presence of the
Anderson and Richmond managers in
the city was for the purpose of dis
GUESSING the baseball outlook in this
city and encouraging the shamrocks
to accept their franchise
A meeting of the magnates Of the
10 association was arranged to be
held in this city next Thursday aft
ernoon, when the managers hope to
perfect their organization. At that
time the Shamrock club expects to
make known its determination which
probably will be of accepting the fran
chise and joining the league. A rep
reSentative of the Shamrock organiZa-
ton stated last night that he had no
doubt but what the Shamrocks would
accept llle DcFtn ana proceed Win
preparation for the season.
l. JCssup and O'Neill are enthusiastic
over the prospects for the season in
their cities and i'll fact they predict
nothing but success for the new 10
association. They consider Muncie
as being more desirable territory and
will do all within their power to have
the Shamrocks get in. The meeting on
Thursday will be held at the Hotel
Delaware and all the managers are
expected to be in attendance.
Well known local authorities have
advised the Shamrock club to enter
the 10. league and to this advice
was attached a number of reasons.
The Shamrocks would have better
prestige in the baseball arena: they
would be given better patronage in
consideration Of first-class sport in a
first-class league: they would have
better protection and better financial
returns. should they join the 10.
ranks, is the opinion Of local sports
men.

Two boys were herding swine in
Italy. They We're evidently discussing
some very important subject. for they
were earnest at it. A man approach
ed, and the boys separated, each for
his own side OF the pasture. The man
was angry and was shaking his hand
at them. Tho boys said nothing: they
drove their swine in and were quiet as
mouse about it. The man had said
they should stay out until dark, and
the sun had not even set yet After
they had driven the swine to their re-

down and ran to the road which led
to Rome Ones name was Peter; the
other Michael Angelo. Both were poor
boys. They tramped and tramped, and
the first thing they did when they
reached Rome was to 20 TO church.
After they had rested aud prayed they
looked for employment. Peter received
employment as tie cooks boy in some
cardinals house, but Michael could
find nothing to do, SO he almost de-
SPARED.
He went to his friend Peter, who
gave him something to eat and at
night secretly let him into his room in
the attic to sleep. This went on for a
long time. Peter content to let his
friend do this and Michael content
also. Michael when in church had seen
some fine pictures. One which fasci-
mated him was Christ Ascending to
Heaven" Taking bits of charcoal. he
went to Peters room and drew pic
lures on the white walls One day the
cardinal had occasion to go 10 the
room. Michael had meanwhile secured
employment in the cardinals kitchen.
The cardinal, upon seeing all the pic
lures, was dumfounded with their
accurateness He called Peter and
Michael upstairs and asked who had
drawn them. Michael confessed be
had, but said he thought he could rub
them out again. The cardinal explain
ed to him that it was all right so far
as the wall was concerned. He took
Michael and sent him to a drawing
master and gave Peter Il better posi-
ton. And Michael worked hard at his
drawings. learned diligently and be

The MISSING Kiss.

George had been away on business

that time he had sent Clara ten letters

STUDENTS WANT

Wabash CoIIegians Ask That
He Be Retained.

Charlottesville, Ind, Feb. ia
mass meeting OF the entire student
body of Wabash college was held yes
terday morning after chapel exercises
and steps taken by the appointment
Of a committee of six prominent stu
dents towards the retention OF Francis
VI. Cayou as director of athletics at
the local institution. The meeting
was spirited throughout and number
of the students made speeches in IA
vor Of retaining the famous Indian
coach
Red tags bearing the words Il am

chapel exercises and the men tied
them to their buttonholes and wore
the m the remainder Of the day. BY the
unanimous vote Of the student body
the motion that a committee be ap
pointed to confer with President
Macintosh relative to the rehiring of
Coach Cayou was carried.
President Macintosh adore ssed the
students prior to the meeting in
straightforward manner which com
manded the respect Of the entire stu
dent body, and stated that the de-
cision of not retaining Cayou was fin
al and that action upon the part of the
students would be fruitless. The eX
act reasons for the release of CayOu
were not given, although number of
points We're brought out by the presi-
dent. The student body has no hard
feeling toward Dr.. Macintosh, who
has always held their universal con-
fidence and respect, but at the same
time they seem TO feel almost as a
unit that Cayou must be retained in
his official capacity.

he found Phil O'Neill ready tc place an

and there they met with the officers
of the Shamrock Athletic association,
who assured them that Muncie would
positively have an 10. league team in
the field and that the work of lining
up team was now in progress.
Manager DeArmond is still negotiat-
ing for a park at Hamilton and he
thinks that his efforts to induce the
street car company in that city to
equip a park will be successful. At
the present time five of the six 10.
league clubs are ready for the season
with the exception of securing their
teams. Hamilton is the only city on
