was fully light and meaning to GO
into the NOW to throw down feed
for the horses, pitched the fork

bruise it severity, and he came to

Says Waterloo viii be Dropped to
Take in Quincy, Plan Seeming to
be All Cut And
Dried.
TO CARE FOR WATERLOO
soyle's Valuable Ball Team, Worth
About $4,000, May be Taken
Over by Leasue-Daven-
port Dope.

Presidents Tearney of the Three-I
and C'Neill of the Western league
and Secretary McRoy Of the Ameri-
can league returned with Messrs.
Johnson and Comiskey. Both minor
league chieftains We're pleased with
the result of the petition to have
their leagues remain in their present
classes. President Tearney said the
addition of Quincy to the Three-I cir
cult would make a big reduction in
travelling expenses. He said the Wa
terloo club would retire and that the
Quincy club would pay the necessary
$4,000 to obtain it's release from the
Central Association and also the ST.
900 for the surrender of the Waterloo
franchise. The Three-I league also
has guaranteed to take the Waterloo
clubs payers off its hands if neces-
sary.
DAVENPORT, Dec. 19-Tne above
which appeared in the Chicago Tri-
bune. will start sensation around
the Three-I, and will give rise to a
gigantic commotion if it ever reaches
Waterloo. If President Tearney IS au-
thority for the statement, and he
doubtless is, it simply indicates that
a plan to GUST Waterloo and take in
Quincy is already under way. 1t also
spells hot time for the Three-I
bosses when they get together for
their concl,ve Immediately after
New Years. Waterloo has threatened
to fight its release from the league,
and trouble is scented in the air.
Down in Quincy. things are still
humming. Recently Harry F. Hofer
of the Quincy club received a COM
munication from President NJ. E. JUS
ltice notifying him of the terms of
the agreement between the league
and the club. President Justice states
that Quincy must pay $1,000 for its
release, as follows: $500 to be paid
Dec. 30, and the remaining $4,000 by
February |, Quincy to give note for
the full amount to assure the league
that the money will be forthcoming.

help the club raise the money

ten some very tuneful music for it,
1t is not musical comedy OF the
usual order, but rather a musical
farce. The singing is exceedingly at
tractive.
The story is a sort Of trayesty on
art faddists. A rich young man.
ignorant of art, is in despair because
he fails TO interest young woman
OF artistic temperament. When he
starts out to get smattering of art
he conceives the idea of appropriating
the work of three unappreciated art
lists, paying them for the privilege Of
signing their products and posing as
genius who has let no one know of
his accomplishments. The working
out of this plot gives plenty of lati-
tude for spirited dialogue, delightful
satire and lively action. Mr.. Wood
ruff plays the Genius. with alter
mating audacity ard embarrassment.
His good looks and striking dress
make him a particular engaging figure
in the masquerade Of extravaganza.

viii Welcome Them.
THAT WAS AGREEMENT
The Best of Feeling Exists Between
League and Two cities-Misht
Have Effect of Build
ing Up I'M.

MACOMB, ILL.,. Dec. 19-Monmouth
in canvassing the Central Association
In a frantic endeavor to hold her
berth, but the success will depend
largely on what other cities there are
to supply her place, and how the as
sociation will be made up after the
Three-Eye gets through making in
roads. Decatur and Quincy both want
berths in the Three-Eye and if they
succeed it may mean the dropping of
the Iowa cities. Ii this goes into eff
feet there will be several desirable
Iowa towns for the Central and as
Burlington is close to Galesburg it
may mean that geographical and 9TH
er advantages will cause Monmouth to
be dropped.
If Monmouth is dropped from the
Central then its her back to the I'm.
That was the agreement when they
were released and there is no doubt
but what she will stand by it. While
personally we would welcome the
Maple City back with open arms and
would kill the fatted calf, the umpire
or the manager, as the best interests
of the game demanded when the
season opened. yet we wish them no
bad luck. and if they prefer to stay
in the Central and their fans want
them there. all we'll and good, but if
not. they will again become members
of the LIN. according to agreement
when they were released. The I'M.
has done her part by Monmouth and
gave her the opportunity to get her
release and try it in larger COMPANY
not faster, note the difference-and If
the other cities outweighed them in
population and drawing powers. and
they are dropped as result it will
add good city to the In. The
Monmouth bunch are good game
sports and viii put up good fight
but the odds may become too large.
However. they are going right along
and have signed a good manager for
next season, Claude Stark of Rock
Island. star first saciler and good
baseball man But we will welcome
Claude TO our fair city Just the
same as though ne was not engaged

Hannibal Joined the IN. original
Il only by agreement that she was to
be released at the end Of the year,
and is in no way bound 10 join the
In. again. However, the IN. gave
Hannibal some OF the best ball she
ever had; the stars CT the same team
that won the pennant for them in
the IN by a narrow margin from US.
were only defeated by about the same
margin in the Central. so they evi-
IDENTIFY had no faster ball. tie only
difference being that it cost more.
If they drop ont OF the Central the
I'M. viii be glad TO receive them and
Macomb will issue 2 personal guaran-
tee that they don't cop that remnant

Sporting Views
By the Editor

President AL. Tearney of the Three
Eye league has been quoted as saying
that Waterloo would be dropped and
Quincy taken in The next move he
outlines is 10 bump Dubuque and take
in Decatur. In the event that this coup
is pushed over, Waterloo will lay the
matter before the national board of
arbitration. In this connection it has
been suggested that the Central AS.
ISOLATION drop Hannibal, Galesburg
and Monmouth and vote in Waterloo
and Dubuque, also taking in Cedar
Rapids and Muscatine. The aggregate
popula ion of this circuit, it is beliey-
ed, would be over 100000.
