Record Drouth

Miss Ellen L. Larned. of Thompson, whose monthly reviews of the weather for the past fifty years ara read with in- terest. writes to the Courant of the pres ent drouth as follows =
 "So far as can judge from my re- cords the present lack of rainfall sur passes anything in my experience. In previous drouths people would express fear lest winter should set in before the usual fall rains, but recall no instance of such calamity. Bnt now winter is fully launched with covered ground and frozen ice ponds, and wells and springs are not filed. The labor of furnishing drink for cattle is becoming very arduous and modern tanks and artesian we'll fail to meet the emergency. I am no croaker, but this is becoming very serious"

LEAGUE MEETING
National League Will Report Two
of Them, One for 1853, Other for
las Games, It's Decided at
Conference.
American League Still Sticks Tight
ly To l64-Game Basis, But Agrees
On Proposed Rule Changes.

PITTSBURG. Pa. Jan. 25.-The
committee OF the National and Amer.
can leagues resumed their work today
OF working out a playing schedule for
the coming season. The American
league committee is still dead set
against the 16Sgame schedule and
the National committee will frame two
separate schedules TO be submitted To
the league meeting in Chicago next
month One schedule will call for 81
games and one for l6S. Some OF the
schedule-makers doubt IL their work
will be completed today.
With the rules committee making
its report late last night considerable
discussion has already arisen over
some OF the rules adopted. although
none are OF great Importance. The
one calling forth the most comment
Is the revision that will do away with
the wild pitch and passed ball. These
nisplays will now be counted as errors
against the pitcher or catcher. The
coachers box at first base is limited
to fifteen feet toward right field under
the new rules Heretofore coachers
could run as far in the field as they
cared TO.
The umpires Will have more work 10

pire before the start of the game
and the team captains must notify the
arbitrator. before making a change in
the lineup A ball in the field hitting
an umpire is not dead under the new
rules and base runner will not be
called back.
A change in the wording OF the rules
I throughout TO read ''umpires" instead
OF umpire" Is intended TO make the
double umpire system a fixture.

Umpire Gould HsI } The
Base Runner / lie Would
BY n. p. EDWARDS.
In Cleveland Plain Dealer.)

More base running is supposed TO
be one OF the crying needs OF baseball.
While it's possible that there is not as
much base running today as some
dozen years ago, this fact may be due
TO the carefulness with which the aver
age pitcher watches the base runner
after he reaches the initial sack The
custom of catchers wasting sometimes
SIS many as three balls TO get a base
runner, also has had a great deal 10
do with the scarcity Of stolen bases.

CITY AUDITOR TO
ADOPT new system
Report for the Fiscal Year Will
Be Made More C0m=
prehensiye

OAKLAND, June S.-An important
change in the. form of the annual re-
port of the city auditors office is being
contemplated by Auditor Gross. In
stead of holding the report of the fiscal
year ending June 80 until about the
first of January in order to include all
the claims audited against the funds
of the last fiscal year. Gross desires to
compile his report as soon as possible
after the end of the fiscal year and
make its contents include only the
actual work done by his office within
its legal limits.
In the past it has been the custom of
the auditor to endeavor to make his
annual report include all of the bills
presented against the city funds of the
fiscal year, but this has made it neces-
sary for him to delay the report for
several months in order to wait for be-
lated bills.
He. has concluded that it will be ad-
visable in the future to make the re-
port include only the actual work done
by his office during the fiscal year.
This will facilitate the issuance of the
report and is in line with the opinions
of expert auditors throughout the
United States

Flag OF GOVERNOR
FLIES over HOTEL
Pennant Hoisted for First Time
in City on Gillett's Return
From East

For the first time since he was elected
chief executive of the state. Governor
James n. Gillett saw flying from the
fagstaff of the Fairmont hotel. where
he is making his temporary abode the
flag of the governor of California. 1t
was the first time. too. that most OF
the passersby had seen the pennant.
1t has been the custom whenever a
distinguished foreigner arrives in the
city and registers al a hotel to raise the
foreign standard over the hostelry. This
was done during the visit of Chinese
and Japanese princes and more recently
when the Portuguese man of war ar
rived in port and the minister stayed
at the Palace. When Admiral Evans
reached this city with the Atlantic feet
the st. Francis hoisted from the corner
wing the pennant of rear admiral.
But yesterday was the first time for
a governors pennant TO be seen in the
city. 1t is about 81 feet long. of red
and white bars. The emblem of the
state Eureka" is close to the hal
lizards. The pennant is forked. the red
and white wings running out TO a point.
In spite of all the fuss over his return
from the east Gillett had little to say.
Il have been away from Washington
for some weeks and know little about
the progress of the exposition work
ers."f he said. Everything looked fine
when 1 left Washington
The governor had nothing to say
about the Jeffries-J ohnson fight.

clared, not to discuss the matter at
all. 1t is not of sufficient Importance to
