Obstacles in the Way of
The Eight Club League

The baseball atmosphere in the
Northwest has apparently cleared
within the past week with the an
nouncement made from Portland that
it would again be represented in the
Northwestern league next season, by
courtesey of the Pacific Coast league
All talk of an outlaw league has been
abandoned. The scheme now is to let
things go along next season as they
did last year, but in 1911 to form an
eight-club AlI-Coast league, presum-
ably comprising four clubs in the
north and four in California This is
Congressman elect Mercedes pet
scheme, and it has the sanction of D.
E. Dugdale CT Seattle
But there will be lot of politics
played before such league ever even
tuates. In case of the merger it will
require the majority vote of the direc-
tors in both the Northwestern and Pa
cific Coast leagues Some Of the cities
that now hold franchises in either of
the two leagues will be dropped when
the amalgamation is made, and these
cities will fight before they are booted
out.
In the Northwestern circuit only two
cities are absolutely sure of being rep
resented in this league. These are Sc
attic and Portland. The two others will
be chosen from Tacoma, Vancouver
and Spokane. Aberdeen, now a mem
Der of the Northwestern circuit, would
be dropped. One of the other cities
will be dropped, either Vancouver, Spo-
kane or Tacoma. 1t will probably be
Vancouver though this, has by no
means been decided. Spokane is fur

kane is an American city and much
better baseball town than Vancouver.

DRUG CLERKS
 ORGANIZING They Desire Shorter Hours and Better Conditions. NEW LAW OBJECTED TO

The drug clerks of the city are con templating crusade for shorter hours of employment. They say their line of business is the only one which has not been benefited by the move ment for the eight and hour day which has been in progress for sew eral years back. One of the clerks said to- day. <We are talking the mat ter over quietly. If we can get all of the clerks to stand together we can undoubtedly carry our point.
 ''The> drug stores bosses went to the legislature last session and secured regula tions governing the issuance of licenses and the length of time a man must work in the business before he is allowed to take his examinations to become a pharmacist. This new law requires a clerk to be 21 years of age and in the business for five years before being allowed to take an ex- animation to become a licensed phar- macist Under the old system the clerk who could pass the examination was given license despite the length of time he has been in the business. Now if he studies outside of a drug store and equips himself so as to be able to take the examination after one or two years in pharmacy he will have to wait until he has been in the store for five years before being allowed to be examined.
 "A little difference with an employ CT after 4 years and months service would force the clerk out to look for another job in ordeu to getSin the six

THREE MURDERERS
 ARE GUILLOTINED
Crowd Cheers Justify as Head of Each
 Man Drops into Basket.
JOKE ON WAY TO sCAFFdLD
Special from United Press.)

Especial from United Press.)
 Valence, France, Sept. 22.-Three of the -Four Chaffeurs of the Drome'' were guillotined today in the presence of a vast crowd who cheered Justify as the head of each of the murderers was severed by the knife and dropped into the waiting basket. The men who paid the forfeit for their brutal crimes were Louis David and two of his accomplices, Pierre Berruyer and Lucian Brunier. The men joked with each other on the way to the scaffold and jeered at the waiting crowd as they awaited their turn.
 The crimes for which the men lost their heads were so brutal that all of France breathed easier when the gull lotine had done it's work. They had tfms and committed innumerab1e other crimes. The men did not doubt that their heads would be lopped off for their crimes, and each day in their cells they greeted each other with playful jests that "there was one less day to live.'
 As their hideous crimes were detail ed by the witnesses during their trial the bandits nudged each other in ad- miration of their deeds. ''Sorry?'' shouted David, their leader, as he mounted the guillotine today and pre- pared his head for the block, "'what for? Were sorry for nothing and mo- body.''
 The "Chaffeurs of the Drome' as they called themselves, tortured one old man for two hours and after they had forced him to tell where his money was kept, they murdered him. An other man would not tell so fire was burned totally off the man died of the shock

JACKsON's
PAPKB vs. KETcHELL

A very large crowd, including a. fair sprinkling of the fair sex were in at tendance at Jackson's this afternoon when an exhibition of the famous Papke-KetcheIl fight took place. The pictures are the dearest and most dis tinct of their kind ever shown upon a local screen. From the very start until the finish the two fighters fought for the supremacy and when the battle ended both were on their feet and still pummelling at each other. It was on this point that Papke claimed that the fight should at least have been called a draw, but to the minds of the greater portion of the spectators, who were lucky man that he was able. to be on his feet after receiving the punish ment Ketchell administered to him.
 
 THE THIEF.
 The coming of Charles Frohman's s production Of ''The Thief to Jack sons tomorrow evening will probably prove one of the dramatic treats of the season. For ten months "The Thief was played at 1.-the Lyceum Theatre in New York, and MT. Froh- man is presenting an identical produc- ies.
 .'The Thief as a play of rare strength and technical perfection, has become practically a household word and a standard in considering the sub stance and power of the modern drama. The story concerns a wife who loves her husband to idolatry and who steals in order to hold his affec- tion by the coquetry of her clothes. When the theft is disclosed she resorts to every subterfuge to evade detec- ton. Finally after expiation and suf- fering, she admits her guilt to her friends and the play ends happily.
 This rough outline only suggests the gigantic power of the play and the thrilling situations which are devel- oped by Henri Bernstein, the author. The sale of seats has been very satis- factory and augurs an attendance of large proportions.

Convenient for the first cool day

months necessary to take the exam ination
 Long hours have always been the draw back to the drug business, but many young men were attracted to it hy the opportunities it offered, to a young man who would study. It was possible under the old system for young man of 21 or 23 years of age to get license and command as much money men who had been in the business for years. Under the new law a man can get a. license when he is 21 providing that he goes in the business when he is IS years. This being bound out for five years is go- ing to fill the drug stores with cheap clerks who will be willing to work for almost nothing in order to get the chance to get the license.
 fIn order to better our conditions in the future the best thing we can do at present is get together and in sist on shorter hours The drug clerks work from o'clock in the morning to o'clock at night. or from g o'clock in the morning to Il at night. In some stores where there are only two clerks the clerks very often put in a fourteen hour day.

WEIRD ACCOUNTS
 OF JEW MASSACRE
Especial from United Press.)

Especial from United PreSS.)
 Vienna, Sept. 22.-Leading Austrian newspapers to-day print long and de- tailed accounts of the three days Jew Hunt in Kieff and it's suburbs. The Neu Freie press, the Allgenline Ziet- ung and. the Zeit accounts show that the massacre was second only to the Kishinev with A killed.'
 The hospitals of Kieff are still filled with the wounded according to the Neu Freie Press. Papers received from Budapest including the Pestihir lap Magkarorzsac, have the same conf1r1natory details, while the Prage papers make the affair their leading story.
 Copenhagen, Sept. 22.-The National Tidende and other leading papers of Copenha gen print to-day for the first time the details of the massacre of Jewish men, women and children in Kief and Colonlka. The papers as- sert that it is time that the civilized world took a hand in Russia's inter- nal affairs if the Kieff affair is a. sample of the Czar's ability. to pros tect his people.
