ARMY OF BASE
 BALL PLAYERS
IS THOUGHT THAT THERE WILL BE 5o,ooo PLAYERS NEXT
 SEASON.
Now There is About 10000 Players That Are Living at the Expense
 Of the National Sport.

More than 1000 players in organ ized professional leagues.
 And for every reserve player draw ing salary, ten independents getting their daily bread out of baseball.
 In other words, nearly 5O,00O boys and men in America drawing living salaries because they can catch, throw and hit ball with some degree of skill.
 To think of 1.-the national sport of America, employing such an army of men directly, to say nothing of the ticket sellers and ticket takers; land scape gardeners and policemen, ush- CTS, programme boys and vendors of refreshments, from the thirst-inspir- ing peanut to the thirst-quenching pop, who draw much coin of the realm from the baseball loving public.
 Some institution that. eh?
 The latest reserve lists of the two big leagues show that there are 759 players tied up with these two organ. izations. Add to this little bunch the 3,399 players on the reserve list of the various minor league teams, and it runs the grand total of players un. der the national agreement up to 4.15S.
 It has been figured that every big league city has about ten teams on which players receive pay Smaller cities in organized baseball will hard ly average half that number How ever, to make up the average, there are hundreds of cities in the country too small to support league team of any kind, but which have independent paid teams. These are they which will keep up the average of ten teams 10 one in organized baseball.
 Some of these 1000 odd players in organized baseball during the winter will be dropped before summer sets ill, only to be snapped up by indepen- dent teams. So the estimate that there will be 5O,000 players drawing salary out of baseball next year is a pretty good one.

HEADS OF FAMILY caiTlcISING EACH OTHER WREcKs
 HAPPY HOME.
Angus Shannon and Wife Were Sep arated By the FauItfndins of
 Each Other

Chicago. Nov 6.--Don't criticise your wifel
 Don't find fault with your husbandl
 Their home wrecked, happiness de- stroyed. and their hopes disspated, Angus Roy shannon, attorney and clubman and his divorced wife. Mrs. Maria shannon of Highland Park, blamed criticism of each other today for the ending of their romance.
 Both young, ambitious, and wealthy. having two little boys, the future promised much for Shannon and his pretty wife.
 They loved so much, but they took notice of each others faults, and one day-it was two years aeo-it ended asserted an intimate friend of the couple. "They confessed the fire of love, smolderlng for months, had fin ally died out. Shannon was tired of his wife. She did not love him any more"
 And now both are unhappy, broken hearted-a lonely man and woman"
 Shannon, as assistant counsel for the board of education, member of many clubs, attained success as lawyer, but as husband and father he proved a failure, he admitted to- day.
 Its pathetic" resumed the friend eyet they both meant well in criticis ing each other.
 Secrecy characterized the suit for divorce. The petition was flied by Mrs. Shannon at Waukegan, desertion being one of the charges. Unknown to the couples many friends decree was granted by Judge Wright after brief hearing.
 Alone in his office 107 Dearborn street, shannon smoked his pipe in silence. At the pretty family home in Highland Park, Mrs. shannon was comforted by her two children, Me. Kenzie, z and Angus, years old.
 "Is marriage a failure?" asked shannon looking up. and then he set tied in his chair and was silent.
 Two hearts are estranged in one of the oldest domestic tangles on re- cord" added the friend of the couple

and orphans, no distinction is made between the families of teachers in the official schools aid those of teach CTS in the private or denominational schools.
 Under conditions so equitable, the grievance of which the friends of de. nominational education in Holland had reason to complain some years ago no longer exists. And in the healthy rivalry prevailing between the official and the non-official schools, it is a satisfaction to find that the latter are able to hold their own, as shown by the increasing number of pupils they have in attendance.
 In the course of the last sevenlyears the population of the government schools has risen from 50S,2S6 to 56S. 1S7, while that of the denominational school has increased from 231,534 to S16,1SS-the increase of the latter within the period being absolutely and approximately much greater.
 It is also significant that within the last three years the official schools have lost 1,25S pupils; the free or de nominational schools on the other hand, have had an increase of 13,7S3
 These results are considered as very satisfactory h justice to the public schools it must be said that te mhajority of them are conducted in way to merit general confidence; this Is especially the case in the rural districts where the schools are prao- tically. though not in name, denomine- tional
 Tn so far as state recognition was concerned. the secondary denomina- tional institutions were for a long time at a considerable disadvantage as compared with the same class of public establishments.
 scheme which lately received She approval of the Dutch Chamber has brought a most desirable change.
 Secondary schools, official and non official, denominational and undenom- national, are now, to al intents and purposes, on an equality as far as re- gards state support.
 As a result, the Catholic colleges for boys. and the secondary schools for girls, even those conducted by nuns, are entitled to receive govern ment aid on their conforming to the prescribed conditions.

Don't slide feet first That's a straight tip given up by Roy Thomas of the Boston Doves, and one of the best base runners the game has ever known. I've tried both head-first and feet-frst sliding said Thomas. and of the two give me the head-first slide every time. The principal reason why I'm opposed to fee-first sliding is that the runner takes such great chances of injuring his legs-and a ball player without good legs isn't a good ball player. Another good req son is that if man slides head first he gives the baseman but small DOT ton of an arm as spot to tag, and a man must be swift and sure to con meet up with so small a mark"
