There are managers pessimistic about
keeping their men going after the reg

he figures on the resiliency of youth
to keep the boys from getting tired
of the game. To certain degree 1t
will be an educational tour for the
youngsters. for Connie confidently
counts on teaching them valuable
things before the jaunt is over

On account of the injuries to Short

they could not accompany the team 10

Washington Americans to fill the holes
in the team and as Dan Murphy could
not go with them, Connie took

new law goes into effect, boys of 10
years and under are subject to arrest
and fine of $1,000 each offense for
smoking cigarette, or rolling one,

passed, this is the first one to deal d.
rectly with the user, and it is thought
there is no way to evade it.
Under this new law the dealer, if
he sells or gives away either the
ready made cigarette or the paper or
tobacco for the making, is subject to a
fine of not less than $40 nor more
than 500 and for the second offense
a fine Of $50 minimum and maximum
of $500. One-half the, fine so receiv-
ed to 90 to the complaining witness.
There will be an effort made to strict
ly enforce this law, SO both the deal
ers and the boys who use these cof-
fin nails had better watch out, If they
don't want to get into whole lot Of
trouble.

will attend. In order to be certain of
crowd it is announced for sweet
charity's sake. Admission one dime.

States Coal Output in 1908 Fell
Short.

Washington, Aug. 3.-The Geolog-
ical Survey published its annual re-
port on the production of coal in Mis-
souri,. It shows the output of the
State in 1908 to have been 3,3l7,315
short tons having spot value Of
IS, Az, 907. This is a decrease from
the quantity produced in 1907 Of ESQ.,
62l TONS. or l7.02 per cent. The
value Of the product was 81, O59, SO2
less in 1903 than in 1907.
The report states that in Missouri,
as in Arkansas, Kansas and Okla
homa, the coal mining industry in
1908 was adversely affected more by
the increased production and con-
sumption Of petroleum and natural
gas in the midcontinent field than BY
the business depression. s
