that the council had no right to dictate

that the measure was directed only

RENDERED BUTTON
FOR THREEF Oranges

John Mahoy. a soldier, entered the
store of Sing Wo Wong, at the corner
of Nuuanu and Hotel streets yester-
day afternoon and pocketed three
oranges
"Ten cents reminded the China
man, whereupon the man of Mars pro-
duced a common metal trouser button
and offered it as legal tender.
Mahoy started to walk away but
the Chink raised such a howl that the
attention of the officer on the beat was
attracted.
Officers MaieIua and Kealohapauole
had quite a job getting the soldier over
TO a police alarm box but the patrol
wagon was soon connected with and
Mahoy was conveyed to the station.
In the receiving station the soldier
denied having given the pake anything
but the ten cents which he was en-
titled to but added that a button was
all that the fruit was worth, anyway.
He was booked for drunkenness and
this seemed to bother him a whole lot.
"Charge me with anything you like
except drunkenness said the soldier;
for I'm just as sober as L can be-
Drunk" it was and drunk" it re-
manned on the docket, however.
A search of Mahoy revealed a pep
per castor which the man said must
have been put in his pocket for joke.
Before leaving the station the
Chinaman asked for and receiver his
oranges back. He also wanted the but
ton but the gift had to be denied him
as it was wanted for the police station
museum.

ADOPT NEW SALARY LIMIT.
Tr1-State League Makes SO, 900 Per
Month Maximum Paw Roll.

ALTOONA, January 17.-Representa
tives of the Tri-state League met here
yesterday and adopted new salary limit
The figures were raised from s.. 600 per
month. including bench manager, and
$500 per month for playing manager, to
s2,1oo and $4,000, respectively. 1t was a
compromise with the magnates, who
wanted the limit raised to $4,000 fiat
Ihe representatives were in session for
three hours transacting business that
could have been done in half an hour. The
hitch, of course, was over the salary
limit. Johnstown, Harrisburg and AL
toona wanted it left as fixed last fall.
Lancastey Wiliamsport, Reading and Will
ningtOn insisted on $4,000 Trenton was
not represented. but Col Perrine sent
word that whatever was done would suit
MIN. In Difference to the wishes of the
majority. who claimed they would be en-
barrassed by the old limit, the compro-
mise was effected.
Stringent rules were adopted to prevent
any violations of the limit.
The old rules Were gone over and sew
eral changes made. Scorers are to be paid
500 for the season.
These representatives were present:
Lancaster +. B. Trout and Christ Stoner;
Wilmington, Mike Grady; Reading, j. l..
Wetzel; Williamsport, Thomas Grady and
Harry Wolverton; Harrisburg. William
Tunis and George Heckert: Johnstown.
George K. Kline; Altoona, J. r. Bockel
Last years rule allowing clubs on pay
ment OF $50 to cancel Tri-state scheduled
games in order to play with National
League and American League teams was
amended so as to require a payment of
500 for that privilege.
1t was decided to open the playing sea :
son on April % and to close Septem-
ber l..
The meeting was most harmonious
one. and each representative expressed
confidence in the outlook for the greatest
success the coming season.

DR.. JORDAN FAVORS
RUGBY FOOT BALL

According to- the views of a Leland
Stanford University graduate who at
tended the annual convention of the Zeta
Psi Fraternity, held in Detroit, the main
reason fer the recent attack of Presid ant
David Starr Jordan of Leland Stanford
en- Coach Yost of Michigan and other ad-
vocates of the American game of foot
ball is that Jordan is strongly<in favor
CT the Rugby game. While it is their
presidents pet hobby.1 the English game
is decidedly unpopular at Leland Stan
ford. The University of California stu
dents are also opposed to the English
game. but. with President Wheeler as
we'll as Jordan in favor of it they are
having it forced down their throats
Speaking of Jordans recent lecture be-
fore the students of Incidental College,
Los Angeles, the graduate said
President Jordan got himself very
much disliked as a result of that lee
ture. He was invited to Occidental Col
lega to lecture and was welcomed by the
students with cheers He took advan-
tage of his opportunity to give the stu
dents lecture on the evils of American
foot ball and to advocate the English
game. When he went away he didn't
even get faint hand of applause.
He told the Occidental stud nts that
the American game is unchrstianlike and
unsportsmanlike. He argued en- the evil
of the mass play, not seeming to realize
that the mass play has been out of ex
istencs for two years. He simply tried
to force English Rugby upon the stu
dents of Occidental College. They very
plainly let him see that they didn't want
any of his Interference in their business
that they were perfectly capable of know
ing which game they wanted to play and
that they would ccntinIa to play wat
they want ID the pr asident of Leland
Stanford notwithstanding.
1.-The main trouble with DR.. Jordan is
that he is too anxious to put through
some of his pet reforms. He doesn't stop
to consider whether there is anything tC
reform or not. Neither dos he realiza
that American college students may not
be interested in his hobbies. He has the
English Rugby and the reform ideas
strong and he can't say enough to put
both propositions through.
But instead of accomplishing his pur-
pose. he is merely getting. himself un-
popular, in California at least"
Ralph Rose, the champion shot-puttsr.
has asked DR.. Jordan to either r2tract or
prove the charges he made against Roses
amateur standing to the effect that Rose
was hirad by the University of Michigan
as an athlete.
Rose says:

In relay racing than ever before is evil
dent from the fact that even as late as
this morning, Manager Fleming of the
George Washington University track
team had applications from four more
teams to be classed in races at the Hatch
elites indoor games in Convention Hall a
week from tomorrow night. 1t is likely
that when the entries c,ose tomorrow
night there will be larger number of
relay races on the program than have
ever been run in indoor games given in
the south.
In addition to its first team, which is
scheduled to run the Episcopal High
School of Alexandria, the Baltimore City
College has asked for matches for a sec
ond team, a junior team ard q midget
team. 1t is likely that the second team
will be classed with the Guriey seconds,
the Baltic \. c. and the Boomingdale A
G. and the junior quartet with the Y. NJ.
Blair School. The midget team may be
classed with the four teams of Y. NJ. c.
A. midgets, although this has not been
decided.
The Woodberry Forest School, whose
challenge was declined by the Central
High School. has asked for a race with
any other schoo, or club, and Manage.
Fleming has offered them race with the
Gurley Athletic Club, which will probably
be accepted.
There will be a strong representation OF
Baltimore athletic clubs besides the big
bunch of entries from Johns Hopkins and
