cerned for some time The Happy Hollow
club is enabled to open its doors a month
ahead of the other clubs because its club
house is equipped with number Of fire
places in which rousing fires may be built
and the chill taken out of the rooms.
All Of April the Happy Hollow members
will attend their club house in merry glee.
The other clubs are keeping their members
on the porches in those April rains There
will probably be a number of dances given
this spring If the weather is not too cold,
for the younger members and dinners will
be served the same as in the midsummer
season.
At the Rod and Gun club on Carter lake,
and at the Council Bluffs Rowing associ-
alton, to which many Omaha people belong
the early spring festivities will consist
chiefly of fishing and boating Golf is one
Of the sports at the Council Bluffs organi-
cation, which has its ground on Lake
Manawa, and tennis Is one of the popular
amusements at the Gun club, but neither
of the clubs do much in either sport until

CHICAGO. March a.-strife in the

seriously today when the session called
to finally settle the difficulties between the
northern and southern factions of the or
ganization broke up in a disagreement It
is probable that President Tearney will
turn the affairs Of the league over to the
National commission for adjustment
Proposals were made to form ten-club
league, but the trouble started when the
club owners of the southern division in
sisted on taking Quincy and Decatur, ILL.,,
into the clubs. The northern club owners
opposed the plan, whereupon President
Tearney suggested that a committee be
appointed to solve the problem. He pro-
posed selecting a representative from the
northern and southern divisions Of the
league to meet with b. b. Johnson, presl-
dent Of the American league and member
of the National commission, and allow
them to decide which cities would be adj
mitted
Refusal of the northern club owners to
permit President johnson to enter the
controversy caused the split. Resolutions
demanding President Tearney's immediate
resignation were presented by representa-
tives of the clubs in the northern division,
buA the ludlleI WAS lhbltu WllIOul GOAlllB
to a vote.
When William Ewald of the Waterloo
club presented resolutions asking for Tear
ney's resignation, Tearney became infuri-
ated and denounced Ewald as black
guard unfit for the presence at the meet
ing" Ewald attempted to leave the room,
when Tearney threatened to settle their
differences with their fists.
1t is probable that a representative from
the warning factions will selected late to-
day to meet with President Johnson and
end the league squabble. The following
representatives Of the league attended the
meeting:
Edward Holland, Bloomington; ]. M.
Boyle, Danville, ILL.,; J. T. HAYES, Daven-
port; Theodore Scharle. Dubuque; David
Rowan, Peoria; H. E. Castel, Rock Island;
