HAS NOT NAMED
CHASE MANAGER
StallingS Still Yankees Boss,
Declares Farrell.

New York. Sept 22-After a conference
between President Frank j. Farrell and
Manager George T. stallings here to-day
Mr., Farrell left for Cleveland after CIV
ing out the following statement regard
in the present rumpus In the team:
IN response 10 a telegram from me
calling him 10 New York, George T.
| Stallings appeared in my Offices this
morning TO give his version Of the re-
ported trouble IN the New York Ameri
can League club, OF which he is mana
ser. To my surprise Mr.. stallings made
grave accusations against Hal Chase
/ first baseman OF the team, and It's cap
tain. Mr.. Stallings charges that Chase
has not been giving his best services to
the club. and that he has been guilty
/ In baseball parlance OF Laying down.
No ball players can afford TO have mis-
reputation and the reputation OF his club
smirched by such charges, and have
/ decided 70 go at once TO Cleveland
where the club is now playing. make a
thorough investigation OF Mr.. Stallngs'
charges. and If I md they are true. |
shall lay the entire matter before the
national commission and ask that Chase
be punished.
Il owe such investigation TO the public
and the players. II Chase is guilty OF
Stallings' charges there Is no place on
the New York American(H eague team
for him, or any other team. In my judg-
ment II he is not guilty be should be
promptly cleared Of the charges. that he
RaE -
StaIIings Denies Statements.
Mr.. Stallings denies that he gave out
the statements printed In the last few
days attributed 10 him or 10 the players
on the club in reference TO Chase de-
sorting the club in midseason in Detroit.
| He also denies that there was a row and
mutiny in the bus returning from the
ball park in Chicago last Monday. as
Chase was never in the bus. but re-
turned 10 the hotel in an automobile
with three other players. Also, that
Chase never played with a semi-profes-
sional team during the time he was sick.
If MI Stallings fails 10 prove his
charges against Chase II is up TO me 10
deal with Stallings as I see fit. as Chase
is too great a ball player TO have his
reputation blackened by such charges
There has been recently many mislead-
ing reports about nay club and a change
In its manager. ! desire 10 say now that
George T. Stallings is still manager OF
the team; that while he Is here in New
York the club Is in charge OF my secre-
tary and that I have not appointed
Chase 10 manage the team 10 succeed
Stallings."
stallngs arrived here from Chicago
this morning. but declined 10 discuss tht
trouble which has caused no end of gos-
sip In the baseball world.

IDA's IDEA OF DENVER.

Chicago Record Herald
Three weeks ago Ida Thompson, a
young woman residing In that part OF
New York known as the Bronx, wrote
To the postmaster OF Denver that she
wanted "a cowboy husband. She added
that she was heiress TO $4,000 She
has received n thousand letters-not all
from cowboys Offering marriage, and
her sorely tried parents have burned
several hundred photographs In the
parlor stove The girls father explains
that the letter was only n Joke, that his
daughter is not helross even for IS
cents, and asks that the deluge be
stopped, He says that foolish. romantic
Ida thought the letter would be tackled
up in the postofflce at Denver. that
the cowboys would see 1t when they
rode into town. and that II would be
the means OF relieving the tedlum OF
their dreaiy lives. The west has had
frequent cause TO complain Of the nom
comprehension OF the east. and the
young romantic OF the Bronx gives IL
cause for one complaint tho more. Her
conception of Denver as remote and

MAKING 4 CITY's HISTORY.

The public library OF every town, ac-
cording to Josiah X Benton, whose ex-
perience In library management gives
him right to speak. should contain a
town scrapbook, in which every article,
paragraph and item that appears in
any newspaper In regard to that mu-
nicipality should be carefully gathered.
In that way "a surprisingly good Local
history will gradually grow up. When
the time comes for an actual written
history this material Will be OF great
direct and suggestive value. He would
have the librarian keep a scrapbook
and either through an arrangement
with "A press clippings bureau or by
personal attention to IL see that every
such allusion TO the town finds its waS
into the reservoir. This is a sugges-
tion Of very large merit, Those who
adopt IL will have occasion to congrat-
ulate themselves in the future upon
their foresight, and they vii make many
inquirers and investigators OF coming

characteristics of this common bird:
The stout. stocky form, the very stout,

bright chestnut patches between eye

male lacks the black tie, having the
entire under parts brownsh white OF
