LOOK RUsYl

Look busy as you rush along,
That is the proper dope.
Don't amble calmly with the throng
Adopt a jerky lope.
Ignore the signs of rising wrath,
Consider life fray
And elbow people from your path
In energetic way
Beat Father Time into a pulp,
He hasn't any friends.
Consume your luncheon at 4 gulp
And talk of dividends.
Act always like man who has
A lot of vim and go,
And people will describe you as
A human dynamo.

SALARY LIMIT
UPSETS PLANS
Tri-State Managers Find That
Few Men Will Play
For $500

The action of the Tri-state League in
refusing to alter the existing Individual
salary limit clause OF 5000 win have the
effect Of upsetting the well-laid plans OF
so,.ers1 Of the league managers. some OF
the wise managers had planned to nave
two or three Of the players Of their teams
drau, the FAT salaries while the other po-
s,tions would be hled in with men OF the
SEQ grade. thus keeping within the sal
airy limit of $500
Manager George w Heckert, of the
Harrisburg team is one OF the managers
most affected G. Washington announced
his disappointment and has informed
Connie Mack, Of the Philadelphia Atm
letics that he cannot repurchase brsNS
Iuelsman. the big outfiolder, who proved
the real slugger Of the Tri-State last sea-
son. Huelsman received $500 per month
last season and would not play under the
present limit Heckert has also purchased
Firstbaseman Swacina from Louisville,
but il is likely that he too will refuse 70
play for the 5000 permitted by tho league.
Trenton has not yet done business with
any new men. Manager Stetler may find
some difficulty in bringing some Of last
years PLAYERS TO time. as Cannen,
Brouthers and Magoon all received sal
aries far In excess OF the 500 allowed. An

Manager Stetler announced at the league
meeting at Harrisburg that he looked
upon the baseball proposition in this city
as fine one and that he would place a
fine club IN the field. Mr. Lynch has had
baseball experience in the New York
State League.
In some way the Impression went broad
cast that the Tri-State had given up its
territorial rights in wilmington and that
another city would be secured 10 take up
the vacant franchise This is not correct,
as the seven clubs, which kept the VIII
mington club alive last season, will con-
troll the franchise. President Carpenter
has control Of the territory, and It is very
likely that within the next 10 days some
arrangement will be made with Alexander
Stirlith TO take over the franchise and
remaining Wilmington players at a satis-
factory figure. or they viii be passed over
to the new hackers who are anxious to
take the franchise
The ball players who gathered in the
lobby OF the Metropolitan Hotel during
the meetings were disappointed at the ac-
ton of the league in refusing the salary
limit raise. Some OF the veterans declared
they would not play at such low figure.
but none knew just where they would
land or what procedure They would use
to get out Of the Tri-State for the coming
season.

ton is now being paid to the pairing OF
