NOW MURDERED.

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., Oct. IL.
THAT she was sold for 500 and
forced by her father to marry man
she did not love, was the statement
made today by 17-year-old Julia Made
lin, who last Saturday shot and killed
Tony Madelin, to whom she was mar
ried Friday month ago. The girl
said she had no regret for her act.
Il was i'll and lying on the bed when
he came in Saturday night she said.
HE asked me why supper was not
ready and / told him / was not well
enought to get it. Then he ordered
me to get up and close window. l
said could not and he struck me.
He beat and kicked me and then, TAX
ing out his knife, said he would kill
me. ran around him and got the
revolver and when he made as If he

The position of Madelin's body when
found by the police, indicate that he
had been deliberately fired upon from
the back while he sat at the supper
table. A knife was found on the body.

SWITZERLAND FIGHTS ABS|NTHE EVIL

In some cantons the affirmative
yote fell far behind the number of
signatures to the initiative petition
In Canton Berne, where SS,337 voters
had signed the initiative petition
Only 24,593 voted for it, or 1874 less
than the number of signatures origi-
nally obtained. In Neuchatel 1928
signed the petition FOR the abolition
of absinthe, and but 6340 voted for
it upon the day of election. Fri
bourg shows $685. signatures in favor
Of the petition and 7244 votes for the
measure on election day; Glarus Sc
cured 342O signatures against $500
votes. and Basel-land 1922 sigma

in the affirmative.
A favorite placard of its adherents
was a radiant white cross behind the
range Of the snowy Alps, printed up
on a red ground, with the legend,

The question now arises how the
federal prohibition will work, since
the federal government has no police
force Of its own and is dependent up
on the cantonal police. If $4,000 of
the $4,000 voters against the initia-
tive sign a second initiative, they can
force the matter to a popular vote for
the second time.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-09-07

In reporting that the manufactu
importation and sale of absinthe in
Switzerland is now prohibited, Vice
Consul Leo ]. Frankenthal of Berne
gives the following particulars of the
recent referendum by which this was
accomplished.
In a previous consular report by
the wfiter on the practical workings
of the popular initiative in switzer-
land, the absinthe initiative was ex-
planned at length. 1t was accepted
by the Swiss people on Sunday, July
5. 1908, by vote of 236,5S2 against
I35,SSs. The total Vote cast was
S72,47O from voting strength Of
over sOL7OO, showing that $4,000
voters did not go to the polls.
Its acceptance amends the Swiss
constitution by a paragraph prohb-
iting the manufacture, importation,
and sale Of absinthe in Switzerland.
Damages will undoubtedly be paid
to the manufacturers in the Canton
NeuchateE where a flourishing ex-
port industry had been built up. The
federal alcohol monopoly will lose
large sum annually.
The vote Of the French cantons-
Geneva, yaud, valais, Fribourg, and
Observation-Disclosures absinthe is con-
sumed. and where in Geneva and
Vaud, its sale was recently prohibit
ed by cantonal ordinances, rejected
the federal initiative by a small ma
jority.
The vote in the German cantons,
however, where absinthe is practically
unknown, turned the tide in favor of
the measure. Thus its fate was de-
cided for the citizens Of western
Switzerland, who were personally in
terested, by the votes Of those in the
other cantons whom the measure
did not affect.
Central and eastern Switzerland
had been appealed to by the western
or French cantons to support them
in voting In favor Of the initiative,
while the votes cast show that the
French cantons as a whole rejected

Novices Spend LOIS.
How much amateurs spend for
baseball It is impossible to tell. except
by very general estimate. II each

chronological schools, in the country
had a baseball team and the latter
used In a season 20 dozen balls, at
SIP a dozen, and 80 bats at s each,
the annual expense bill would be
nearly $142,97O. When It comes to
the sales of equipment for other am
ateurs, the trade is divided among
scores of manufacturers and thous
ands of small shops. If one-half the

siOnal games I'm season should play

should be given ball and bat, 1t
would take $4,OOO,OOO to pay the bill.
The sums tied up in grounds,
grandstands and bleachers of course,
vary considerably. The National
league grounds in Boston, st. Louis
and Philadelphia are elaborate. The
American league has fine properties
in Boston and Cleveland, and is plan
ming costly improvements in Philadel-
phia.
SO the total amount of capital tied
up in the grounds becomes a matter o3

Expenses Heavy.

The American and National leagues
use 1000 bats in a year and the best
sell at 81 piece. These 16 clubs also
use from 500 to 1000 dozen balls, at
S12 a dozen. The clubs in the minor
leagues require from 25OO to 5000
dozen balls. They use an average of
60 bats each in a season.
More than $1,OOO,OOO a season is
spent by the managers of the big
league clubs for running expenses.
Crack clubs, like the Pittsburg, the
Chicago and the New York team in
the National league. cost $4,000 a
year. If an average is struck at $780,
600 and the 16 clubs in the two
leagues are counted, expenses run up
to $500, 900 for a season.
To the salaries is added an allow
ance of $50 a piece for each player
on the league teams for uniforms
This means two flannel suits in a
season at SIS apiece. For the 800
players in the 16 clubs in the big
leagues this item would come to
$4,000. A similar allowance for the
1900 players in the minor leagues
would swell the tallors bills of the
professional players to s13S,6O0.
When the fans yell at the umpire
and agree that he's "plker" mad mo
good" they seldom think that these
useless luxurIes are costing anywhere
from s24. 900 to $4,000 a season.
