TRADES ROLLER COASTER
FOR INCOME PROPERTY

It requires a peculiar faculty to
match or exchange property for prop
erty. and so balance equities that aDso-
lutte Justice is melted out and perfect
satisfaction accorded the parties inter-
ested on each side of the transaction.
John Graham of the RAIN Realty IN
vestment company, 304 Stimson build
ing. Los Angeles seems to have this
faculty developed to a high degree
Last week he negotiated the exchange
of the old roller coaster at Ocean Park
for a nice piece of income property in
PARKWAY BoonVille, Oneida county,
New York; and a residence on west
Twenty second street, known as lot b
in the G.. II. Ashby tract, this city,
with improvements thereon. This little
transaction represents values Of $40, 1000
The same firm, by the same member
effected an all cash sale of a pretty
bungalow home on West Forty-third
street, one lot west of Figueroa street
and the man who purchased in this
promising section has added just $1,000
to his purchase after six days posses
sion.
Another deal of a rather long range
nature was put through a short time
ago by the same company and, Incl
dentally well known architect of this
city, recently of New York was made
happy. In this case the New Yorker
in his haste 10 escape from Lle Ilsora
of the eastern climate left behind him
on Long Island a pretty home sur
rounded by number of acres of land.
Unable to sell or rent, he turned in his
despair to suite 304 Stimson building for
relief. In short order man was found
whose business called him to the me-
tropolis, and his nice income property
on East Fourth street, in Fresno,
consisting of a lot and two stores and
two apartments thereon, passed rapidly
into the hands of the New Yorker, and
the other fellow lost no time in board
ing the Overland and is now busily en-
gagged putting patent wire screens on
his windows and doors to keep out the
pestiferous mosquito.
This firm has special department
for exchanges.

FORMATION OF COUNTY LEAGUE DEFERRED
SHORTER SCHEDULE THAN
l54 M FOR AMERICAN.

CHICAGO, Dec. BAN B. Johnsons
president of the American Baseball
League, last night declared that the
American League owners would be a
unit at the New York meeting next
week for a short-season schedule and
shorter games. He said:
I'VE shall try to do away with the
custom of letting the pitcher brow -four
practise balls TO the catcher, unless the
pitcher has just been at bat. / am in
favor of making the schedule of games
as short as possible. Last year seven
of the American League wner were
in favor of 14o games, while the eighth
wanted 154 games. The American
League was really set for 14o games, but
for harmony's sake and to save mud
ding up the schedule We compromised
on 154 games. In thecoming year we
want a shorter schedule.

RIDERS TIRE and FALL
BEHIND THE RECORD
Shirley Attempts to Ride After
Heavy MeaI--0xygen for
Root and Fogler.
NEW YORK. Dec. I

lOIAI ~ !
EopRTEEN teams of bicycle riders
whirled steadily lap after lap
around the dish like oval in Madi-
son Square, Garden this morning at the
beginning of the second days grind in
New York's annual six-day bicycle
race. The pace throughout the night
had peer a fast one, and at daybreak
today the leading teams found them
selves two miles ahead of the previous
record, but at 8 o'clock they were one
mile behind.
An indiscretion in diet Scost Shirley,
of the British French team, seven laps
last night in the six-day bicycle race
at Madison Square Garden. He anne
on the track heavy from a hearty meal
at the same time with vanoni, who
was hungry for a safe lead and cut
out such a pace that the other riders
in following him Tapped Shirley re-
peatedly.
Root and FogIer were given oxygen
by their trainers at each interval OF
relief, just hef re going on the track
Sprinters bav taken oxygen with sue
cess before Ills, but hitherto it has
not been tried in long distance con-
tests. However, the stimulant seemed
to agree with bsth Root and Fogler,
who looked noticeably fresher, many
thought, thai their opponents.
During the twenty-fifth. hour Stol led
a wild scramble to steal a lap. At the
end of the sprint it was found that
Carapezzi had been Tapped eleven
times, while the Georget brothers, An
derson and vanoni and Hill and Stein
lost one lap each.
C~arapezzi's partner, Cuniolo, was I'M
able to resume, and German decided TO
remain in the race and take his place.

Southern League team of tina

U1ILLIAM A. SMITH late OF At
" lanta, Ca. where he piloted the
Southern League team of that
place to the championship of
the league. is spending a few
weeks at Buffalo. Smith is look
ing over the situation at the
Bison town, and was given a great re-
ception by the Buffalo scribes, who
welcomed their future manager with
open arms and regard him as a world
beater. One<of the first acts of Smith
was to ask for waivers on Mattress,
the little Buffalo shortstop, who had
come to be looked upon as a landmark
by Eastern League fans. The new
manager that the catching
department. consisting OF McAhister,
Woods and Williams, will remain in
tact. According to Manager Smiths
present plans. there will be a big
shake-up in the Bison pitching staff,
though he does not name any changes.
Among the new twirlers who will be
given tryouts in the uniform of Buff
falo next season are Dubec. Lower,
Sheetz and Carmichael, a southpaw.
While no arrangements have been
made for the disposal of Nat
tress, so far as is known, 1t
is supposed that he will be sold or
exchanged to an American Association
team. A new first baseman by the
name Of Robertson, formerly of Ford
ham. will be given a tryout by the
Bison management. He played with
the Nashville, Tenn, team and batted
at. a PSI gait and fielded for a per-
centage of 1884 during the past season.
1t is rumored that Jack Ryan is sweet
ON Jimmy Murray, formerly of Buffalo.
Murray has not been the same since
that accident at Wiedenmayer's Park
a summer ago, when Tom Hughes laid
him out with a crack on the head.
Previous to the. accident Murray had
few EQUALS in the Eastern League as a
batsman; during the past season he
played with St. Paul, but was not salts
fed with his berth, and as he and
Ryan are close friends. 1t is more than
probably that there is son truth in
a rumored trade between the man
agements OF the two teams.
Jack White, of the Buffalo Club,
plays the am steady heady game
year in n year out, is slated for
season with the Bisons. He has
Just opened a new billiard parlor in

Manager Camel. of the champion
Broncos, is in Rochester. He will at

Eastern League a few seasons ago be-
cause he had a run in with an umpire,
Is slowly going down the ladder. He
will play with Little Rock next sea-
