Two young kids, Fred Snodgrass

"Muggsy," with whom he had much
dickering as to inside" dope or

Out at the st. Vincent college
grounds one day "Muggsy" slid in
and taking a back seat watched
Snodgrass and Schaefer play. They
both showed wonderful form
Schaefer is as graceful fielder as
ever wore spikes, perhaps except

York shortstop, and maybe Tinker
of the Cubs.
That night there was confer

and Snodgrass. 1t was nearly time

OFF TO BE GIANTS.
Down to Marlin went the young
sters, trimming over with life and
ambition and eager to become real
Giants.
SnOdgrass, after a season or so of
side line work, helping the pitch
ers, suddenly sprang this year into
prominence as the leading hitter Of
the National league. McGraw found
that he had better catcher than
Snodgrass in Meyers. the Indian
But Muggsy also noticed that the
young fellow who wouldn't drink
nor smoke with him had an uner-
ring eye and strong arm. Snoddy
could clout EN-. So says Muggsy
to himself, I'll make an outIelder
of this fellow And Snoddy is
standing the fans on their heads
with his nifty stick work.
Schaefer played few games, but
he gave way before the miracle,
Rridwell, a more seasoned man.
Neither Schaefer nor Snodgrass had
played professional ball before 60
ing with the Giants. Snodgrass had
helped the Oakland or Vernon team
out in several instances, but was
not regular player.
And now Schaefer. who has been
sitting on the bench most of the
time. writes to the sporting editor
of The Press that he is getting tired
of doing nothing and that the $500
per month and no work isn't to his
liking.
Schaefer says that if there isn't
something doing soon he will pack
his buds and hike back to Califor-
MIA.
Schaefer is of wealthy parents
and dosen't need the money. If he
can't became a great ball player he
wants to find it out in a hurry and
set about doing something else.

bers of our residents to move this plague spot elsewhere, No worse To- cation could be devised for restrict ed district than Seventh avenue. A portion of this street is one of our very best resident sections while the residents of the streets to the porthward have also to view unseem- ly sights incidental to the pursuit of business" on Seventh avenue,
 In the summer time this is partic- ularly offensive. Again this district Is situated where the school children have to pass It constantly;-surely nothing could be worse than this. Nothing can be more demorallzing to the growing boy or girl than sights of this nature. It is therefore only what might have been expected when the present council after receiving a petition, signed by some 125 names of Skagway citizens. and arguments in support thereof. should take the stand they did and close this street to such traffic; a stand which all good citizens should endorse.
 A resolution was passed by the council at the last meeting in June 1909 ordering the chief of police to serve notice on the residents of Sev, enth avenue in the restricted part that they should move from that 10, cation by Sept l5. At the meeting of the council July 19 Councilman Tanner moved the following resolu ton:
 That ALL houses of prostitution ii skagway be closed on or after Sept iI5.
 This motion failed of a second.
 Now. who is responsible for tho condition of things on this much moo ed question? And who is responsible for the business depression in Skag way, if there is anything in the argu ment that the loss of this sort ot trade works any real injury to the business interests?
 We believe the Citizens ticket ii elected can settle this yexed question for the best interests of all. and take such action as seems to them most meet and proper.
