INDOOR LEAGUE
THING OF PAST
Failure Of Public to Come Up With
the TWo-Bit Pieces Kills
Baseball.
ORGANIZATION is GIVEN UP
Men Unable to Keep in Condition
With Two Games a Weekday
Play Occasionally.

The Tri-City Indoor Baseball league
is thing of the past, according to a
statement today from President Jack
Tighe to the effect that no games will
be played tomorrow and that the teams
in the league can consider the organ
ization broken up 1t was thought af-
ter the first game a week ago that this
would be the final action due to the
lack of patronage.
The players themselves are not very
sorry that the scheme has fallen
through as they were unable to work
up the same degree of interest that
they can in the outdoor game and they
did not more than half enjoy the play.
ing of the games because player
cannot keep in condition playing
merely twice a week.
May Play Occasionally.
1t is probable that all the teams
with the possible exception of the Is,
landers, will remain under organiza
ton and will play games at intervals
during the winter, but there is nc
chance that any further attempt will
be made to get the public interested
to the extent of supporting a league.

birds and few small animals, all OF
which are natives of this part of the
country. The entire collection oil
stuffed and mounted birds and ami
mails will be placed on exhibition in
the store window and the guessing
will start tomorrow. The collection
was in the possession of man who
did not pretend to know the names OF
over half the specimens, and many
arguments were the result as to what
