perfect score cars suffered heavily in

1876 miles heightened from the original

The usual number of minor accidents,

Percival Roster. the son of Henry Rosi-
er. one of the Harbors earliest land
men. The young man, who was "a
years old, died at the home of his IA
Their in Chicago.
It now develops that the report of
the death Of John O'Flynn, who for
merly lived in Indiana Harbor, was a
mistake. Mr.. O'Flynn is not dead. but,
on the contrary, is enjoying excellent
health. and is living in Rochester. n.
Y. The report became circulated
through a similarity of names. An
other J. O'Flynn, cousin of Mr.. O'Flynn
of the Harbor, was badly hurt in the
railroad yards in Rochester, but, it is
said, he will recover.
Fred Salnski left today for Denver
and other points in Colorado, to be
gone three months. Mr.. Salnski will
visit Steamboat Springs before re-
turning.
DR.. Frederick Sauer and family left
today for fo nights sojourn in the

the liberal offers made for his services
by the other clubs must have touched

was certainly out of sorts.
Sure, I would like to go to Brook

for that matter I don't care where.
One thing is certain will never play
with Chicago again, 1t doesn't make any
difference how much they give me.

LAS a matter of fact. I gave Presi-
dent Murphy all the chance in the world
to secure my services. but he refused all
my propositions. and now I am through
with him It is not 1 who has acted
unsportsmanlike The shoe Is rather on
the other foot. I am not worrying any,
as I have a good business here"
Friends of King think that the
catcher is peeved because the owner of
the worlds champions won't sell him,
so as TO give King a chance to get
part of the purchase money, or at least
make fight for IT.
