There was, too, certain grim but not unpleasant irony in the reflection that Bucks had ridden straight into a trap, and then had closed the trap with his own hand.
 You are to keep him under strict guard,'' said to Applegate, "I make him your personal charge, but you are not to treat him with any discour tesy unless he compels it.'
 Then we resumed the march, but I kept away from Bucks. I did not wish to appear as one who, taking ad vantage of his power, exulted over an enemy.

HEYDLER'S CHANGES
 GROWING SMALLER
SOME DOUBT NOW AS TO WHETHER HIS NAME WILL BE PRESENTED - ROBIN
 SONS VOTE MAY
 DECIDE

Pittsburg. Penn-. Dec 9.-"We will not have Mir. Heydler beaten If we find we cannot have him elected as President of the National League, his name will not be presented"
 This rather startling statement was made hy President Barney Dreyfuss of the Pittsburg Club th's afternoon. who for the first time admits the possibil- ity of defeat for Heydler Dreyfuss says he will not jeopardize his baseball interests by fighting too ha-d. but If necessary will vote for q comrsro- mise candidate. anybody except John M. Ward. Dreyfuss said.
 "If we cannot elect Mir. Heydler to the Presidency his name will not be proposed. for we are not going to take him into this affair to meet defeat. We are not going to see him beaten and if we cannot muster enough votes to elect him he will not be brought before the meeting next week as a candidate As matters stand at pres ent ft appears we have only three votes in sight for Mir. Heydler. which. of course. will not be sufficient to elect him. No one knows how St. Louis is going to vote. MT. Robinson has refused to give any information to either side as to his intention. and for whom he will cast his ballot will not be known until all the club own week. If he refuses to line up for Heydler. the latter. of course. cannot be elected. and his name will not be presented in nomination
 ''I feel in this case like MT. Herr man of Cincinnati. am for MT. Heydler If we can elect him. but if that Is out of the question we cannot a~ord to hu-t our own business in terests by putting against a stone wall. I will then be wiling to vote for a compromise candidate, but not John N. Ward"
 In reference to the Philadelphia basetan deal MT. Dreyfuss says:
 'Tt will be found there was no &C., tual sale Of that club. A check or sorrething of that sort may have been passed for the sake of appearance. but in my opinion the whole busi7ess is sirrply a plan to shift to other shoulders the responsibility of the lawsuit which Manager Billy Murray Is -ite'y to bring for the purpose of collecting his contract. This contract still has two years to run at the rate of S7. 500 per annum and it Is of such an iron-clad nature that MT. Mur- ray will bring suit for the full amount"

The seuthsrner and Corn.

The southerner feeds himself. his pigs and Lis prugeny upon corn He slept In his frontiersman's cabin upon a mat tress made of the husks. Today he contributes some of its pith to the manufacture of gun cotton with which to blow the enemy to Beelzebub and some more Of it 10 the manufacture of cellulose to pack behind the armor of his counfry's battleships to prevent them from sinking when projectiles pierce their plates He plants corn as early in the springtime as fhe season will permit and gets up at dawn to go into the fields and tic kle its spreading roots with . double shovel blow. Tn midwinter he smokes his corncob pipe before a corncob fire. Looking into bed of glowing embers through n blue haze of the smoke of incense burned to MondaRlin. he returns thanks for the cornmeal in the cupboard and dreams happily of the "ros'n ear" of the golden summer to come. His ap- prPciation of fhP value of Indian corn Is high. His affection for 1t in its vari- us forms is abiding.-Louisville Cou- -ier-Journal.

Major League Teams
 Selling Surplus Men

This Is the waiver time in the big leagues. The Brooklyn club has asked for waivers on twenty-one men who were drafted and purchased last fall. One of these players-Ed Holy-hasn't got much chance of running the waiv- CT gauntlet. The St. Louis Americans desire Holly and will get him If all the otEer National League clubs say they have no desire for the shortstops services.
 The American League clubs have asked for waivers on about fifty men. Manager McGuire of Cleveland Is will ling to part with fifteen men. The Chicago White Stockings have asked for waivers on eleven men and the St. Louis Browns on six.
 Major league club owners are anxi- ous to get waivers on their surplus material now, as next week the man. agers of Eastern League and Ameri- can Association teams will be looking for talent.
 Many players now carried on the re- serve lists of major league clubs will be the property of minor league teams inside of a weeF
