BASEBALL MEN
CLOSE MEETING
LIFE OF NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
OF BASEBALL CLUBS is
EXTENDED.
MEET NEXT AT CHICAGO
Decided to Follow Lead of Nor
Leagues in the Punishment of
Contract and Reserve
Jumpers.

Memphis, Tenn. Nov, 1.-THE ex-
tension of the life of the National AS
sociation of ororessinal Baseball
Clubs until September G. 1921, was
the feature of the closing session of
the annual meeting OF the association
today.
The committee on the revision of
the constitution recommended that
the National Association renew its
agreement for ten years. The pres
ent agreement was entered into at
Chicago, Sept 6, 1901, and was to run
ten years, until 1911. Some of the
members held that the association
expired in 1910 and it was desired to
renew it this year rather than to take
chances of some members who feel
that it expires next. President ONeill
of the Western League, and Lucas of
the Northwest League, voted against
the renewal now ON the ground that
next year will be a better time.
Chicago was awarded the next an
nual meeting. The vote was Chicago
9 Louisville 5; Rock Island, Moline,
Davenport 2, New York 1. The cam
raign for Chicago was led by Presi
dent O'Neill, of the Western League
who voted the proxies of the presi
dents of the Pacific Coast and Cali
fornia Leagues for Chicago.
The resolution that the Nationa
Association do all in its power to ad
vance the welfare of the players was
adopted, also a rule providing that The
players must be Under contract before
they can play in a game with any
club. Formerly the time allowed ;
player to sign a contract varied from
seven to fifteen days or games.
1t was also decided to follow thu
lead of the major leagues in the pun
ishment ofacontract and reserve jump
ers. The new rule provides for TIL
suspension of five years for the break
ing of contract, and three years TO
violating the reserve.
A. d. Helms, Of the Roanoke. Va
Virginia League Club, asked that tn
classification of a league. be base
upon the average population of it
cities rather than upon the entir
population of its circuit. The que
ton was referred to the nation;
board of arbitration. Helms argue
that the present rule is unjust

No DREDGING OF The LAKE
Improvement at Cutoff Postponed, as
Machinery is Costly.
BIDS RECEIVED FOR WORK HIGH
Lowest IL Fifteen cents ~ Ward
and Hoard Thinks IL Could Rc-
move slit for -Four
Cents.

on account Of the great cost Of dredginR
machinery it is probable that little work
VIII be done in the new Levi Carter park
this year. The park commissioners believe
the first work to be done should be the
dredging of the lake. Dredging machinery
will cost 10000 or more and with this ex-
penditure no money would be left for OPP
%erations for the year.
Bids have been received for dredging. but
the lowest bid is at Is cents a yard. with
a machine owned by the board the work
could be done for about 4 cents q yard
This would be a big saving in the long run
and the board therefore believes II would
be more than justified in buying a dredge
instead Of having the work done under con-
tract.
I'VE propose dredging the entire lake and
piling the silt on the lowlsnds. bringing
the whole park above the high water
mark" said Park Commissioner Cornish.
There is no fertilizer as nutritious as silt,
and with this spread thickly over the land
trees and other vegetation would grow fas-
ter than in tropical countries. We will
probably plant a few trees on the higher
ground where silt will not be spread. but
aside from this but little work will proba-
bly, he done in the park this year"
Cottagers in the park will be allowed to
remain there another season, paying rent
to the Park board instead OF to private
ownership. as heretofore.

Memory of an
Expert Cook
Bases a Juror
Edward Porter Gets Excused from
Case in District Court on
Novel Ground.

It being assumed that a good cook Is a
rare article and Edward Porter a grateful
man. who shall say that he acted wrongly
in district court Tuesday morning.
Porter was accepted Monday afternoon
as a Juror in the suit of Mrs. Bedelia Ward
against the Aetna Life Insurance COM
pany. Mrs. Wards son. Frank Ward. held
an accident policy for s. 1900. Prior to his
death he was hurt in a railroad accident.
and the plaintiff claims that the accident
caused his death. the defense asserting
that II was due to illness.
Mrs. Ward did not appear I'm court until
after Porter had sv Urn that he did not
know either the plaintiff or anybody on the
other side. Blu when he saw Mrs. Ward
he became troubled in MIND.
1--WE seen her somewhere" he said to
himself, but that was as far as memory
would assert itself, All night he thought
It over and conviction grew stronger that
he had known the plaintiff some time.
The breakfast table furnished the clue.
These cakes aren't as good as Clara
used to bake said Mrs. Porter with a
sigh.
Il nave II" said Porter.
Have WHAT" asked his wife.
Porter explained to her and then went
down town. When court convened he went
up and whispered in Judge Sears ear:
"A daughter of the plaintiff used to be a
domestic in our household" he explained.
and, as she was the best cook that ever
was, I guess I would be prejudiced."
He was excused.

Peculiar Facts
in Welsh'S Data
Analysis of Work of Weather Man
for Month of April is
Interesting.

Colonel LA A. W elsh. who mixes the
weather for Omaha and vicinity, got his
nerve together Monday and issued a re-
port of his weather doings for the month
Of April. The report comes out without
apology or regret, but 1t tells a number of
facts which are anything but compliment
airy to the man who would dish out such
weather to a helpless public.
According to the confessions Of the fore
caster. there were but six clear days dur
ing the entire month, while the percentage
of sunshine, whatever that is, runs as low
as zero many days and is 100 for only one
day of the entire month. The highest tenn
p~erature was So, on April 20, and the low
est was &c, on the Sth of the month. The
greatest daily range during the month was
on April 26, when the mercury tumhled 81
degrees without half trying.
For the last thlrty-nine years the govern
ment has kept a record of the behavior of
the month of April in this locality, and the
average for that time is a mean tempera-
ture of 51.3 degrees. This year, however,
In spite of all that could be done, the mean
temperature for the month was only IS,
and it came very near not being that.
The report also shows that we are shy
on rainfall, and that since the first of the
year the deficiency Is more than an inch
and a half. Whether or not Colonel Welsh
has taken steps to have this remcdied the
report does not state.
The prevailing direction of the wind for
the month is stated to nave been north,
which is no news TO anybody. The total
movement of the wind Is given as $50
miles, or about the same as the diameter
of the earth. although whether there is
any connection in these facts is not stated.
As miscellaneous phenomena of the month
it is noted that there were no aurora bore
alises, but in place there were supplied five
sun halos and one moon halo, two hall
storms, two fogs. six thunderstorms and
two frosts, which ought to do equally AS
well.
The report fails to state that there were
no earthquakes, no tidal waves, no sun
strokes and no epidemic of Asiatlc cholera.
Otherwise 1t seems to be fairly complete.

DO CLOTHES MAKE A MAN?
Maybe Not, but They Saved This One
from Some Serious EN-
bRrrRssment.

A suit Of psint-spattered and work-worn
clothes, in which Chris Hansen. a painter,
has daubed many a house, won the man
his liberty in police court Tuesday morn
ing. He had been arrested for drunkenness
and was later released on bond. Appearing
in court before Judge Crawford at the ap-
pointed time he wore his working clothes
to prove his statement that he had a job
to go to as soon as the Judge would let
him. The judge decided that it would be
a shame to keep a willing man from his
work, 30 discharged Hansen. He lives at
Seventh and Leavenworth streets.
