The wheels of baseball bring about
strange things. For instance, Joe
Kelley returns to Boston, where he
started 16 years ago. He was then
released to Omaha, and worked his
way into fast company again in the
next few years, finally landing as
member of the Baltimore champions.
Dan McGann, traded to Boston the
other day by Manager McGraw, OF
New York, was former Boston play
er, playing there in 1895. 1t is sig
nificant that four men connected with
the old Baltimore champions are man
aging big league clubs, as follows:
Jennings in Detroit, Kelley in Boston,
McGraw in New York and Hanlon in
Cincinnati. This is Haplc5is last year
in fast company in me capacity Of
manager. Joe Kelly intends to take
the Boston Nationals to Augusta, Ca,
to train. Augusta has been the stamp
ing ground of the Tigers for three
years, but will be passed UP for Lit
tie Rock next spring. Considering the
hard time he had in making good at
Boston, it is indeed surprising that
Fred Tenney remained there so long.
He vert to the Hub in 1895 with his
pitchers Sexton, from Brown universe
ty Boston then had Jack Ryan,
Charley CAMEL and Jack Warner as
backstops, and the fact that Fred was
a southpaw retarded his progress. For
two years Selee worked him occa-
sionally behind the bat, but more
often played him in the outfield. In
1897 his chance came. Tommy Tuck
er began to go back, and Tenney got
the job at first base. For the 13 years
he played with Boston he had a grand
batting average of 1903. In 1899 he
batted $50, while in 1904 he hit his
lowest mark, .27O. For the last seven
years he has led all the National
league first sacaers in the number Of
assists, and his poorest fielding aver
age was .974 In 1908.
In a letter to an eastern friend,
written since the jockey club ordered
the secretaries of the tracks operating
under it's jurisdiction to refuse entries
from his stable hereafter Charles E.
Durnell declares the action took him
completely by surprise. Then he goes

that everything had happened as
he might have expected it would. He was utterly
defeated. His little world had come tumbling
about his ears like a house of cards; but he had
been looking defeat in the face ever since he
had received McCracken's letter, two, three, five,
days ago. He had at the best of it, considered
that he had more than fighting chance of victory.
From what Beaumont had said-good humoredly
enough to be sure-during his formal farewell visit
before the Pheasant sailed, it was perfectly clear
that he meant to allow quarter. The return mail
from New York after Beaumont's arrival there and
the pretty ormality-for that is what it would be
of the stockholders meeting, would bring notice of
Smiths summary dismissal from the position of
manager. The hard earned savings of the people
that had put their money into Gregg's golden dream
would be transferred. that the dream had come
true into Beaumonts pocket Well. that was
result that any sane man would have predicted from
the first.
But how about Christabel? What of her queerly
strained, formal manner. her matter of course
guiescence in her fathers victory and his de-
feat? Well, that might have been expected too, he
supposed; after that electric glance that
had passed between them when, in the lull of the
hurricane, he had set out his perilous errand of
rescue.
But he knew he was lying to himself He knew
that from her. after all that had passed between
them he had expected something entirely different.

TIL was not one of the crowd on the
quay that waved farewell to the
Pheasant. He sat at the front win
dow of his cottage. in the big chair
in which he had received the
Beaumonts' farewell visit, and
watched the little man of war steam
away, her wake bent in a great
cleaning arc behind her.
He told himself rather savagely

But he knew he was lying to himself
that from her. after all that had passed
them, he had expected something entirely
He knew that he was bitterly hurt, and
that his vigorous assertion to the con-
trary afforded a very dreary sort of
consolation
His broken collarbone had furnished
him with an excuse for not going down
to the quay to see his visitors off but
now that the Pheasant was well across
the bar and steaming away toward the
horizon, there was no further need of
treating his injury seriously. DR.. Heyl
told him that if he was sensible he would
stay in bed. because the thing would hurt
less if he lay still. But he had another
hurt that rendered this course of treat
ment intolerable.
With the feeling that he could no
longer bear to be alone here in his quar-
tiers, he struggled out of his easy chair,
put on his hat, and set out for Fort House
The twinges with which his shoulder
accompanied these proceedings, served
rather as an agreeable counter irritant
than otherwise.

FRUIT PROSPECTS
Inspector Field Says Outlook for
Good Season Is Flattering.

]. r. Field, state horticultural
and pure food inspector, has re-
turned from an official visit to the
northern part of the state, visiting
Lewiston, Moscow, Juliaetta, Occur
d'Alene, Harrison and Wallace, at
the first of which places he reports
that the railroad bridge over the
Snake river is nearing completion
and that they expect to have trains
running over the structure on Sun
day, March 10, says the Capital
News.
Work has been progressing rapidly
on the railroad bridge over the
Snake and traffic between Riparia
and Lewiston has already been com
menced, the company operating a
ferry back and forth on the river
while construction is in progress on
the bridge.
Mr.. Field visited in Lewiston two

fruit growing and large acreages are
being planted"
From Moscow Mr.. Field went to
the northern part OF the state on a
routine trip inspecting stores in the
interest of the pure food department,
to ascertain whether food stuffs were
being properly labeled and that they
did not contain injurious ingredients.
He reports that while there were
some violations noted. the stores as
rule were complying with the pro-
visions of the pure food act.
