Sis it was all over and Secretary Rob-
ert Mercy announced that the league
had adopted schedule.
The only other announcement made
officially was that the league had de-
cided to set aside one of the cham
pionship games at Comiskey's park as a
benefit for the late Fire Marshal James
Koran. who was killed in the stock
yards fire in December.
The date was not announced but If
possible a game with the Worlds
Champion Athletics on the first trip
west will be taken and the entire gate
receipts turned over TO the family of
the late fire marshal. Ben Shibe, own
er of the Athletics. was a personal
friend of Koran, and for that reason a
game with the Philadelphia club will be
chosen If possible.
When the meeting was over the
magnates and about fifty guests assem-
bled at the Chicago Automobile club,
where the big Shibe banquet was held
1t was in honor of the Athletics win
ming the worlds championship and
Uncle" Ben Shibe spared no pains OF
expense to make it a grand affair.
Connie Mack gave expression to a
few words at the banquet which should
instill new pennant hopes in the breasts
of the south side rooters. The silent
manager of the worlds champions, aft
er discussing the other teams in the
league came out fatty as a climax of q
short talk with the statement that he
feared the White Sox more than any
other club.
Il think New York and Boston will
give the Athletics lots of trouble dur
ing the coming season., said Connie
Both teams are sure to be strong. TIL,
club I fear most. however. is the White
Sox. l never know how to guess Co
miskey and always am at loss to know
what new trick he has up his sleeve.

NATIONAL IN A ROW
I OVER CHOICE OF BALL
Magnates in Deadlock AS
Usual; Jack Doyle on
List of Umpires.

New York, Feb. 15.-The National
league at its session at the Breslin Ho-
tel yesterday engaged in a pleasant
young war over the adoption of an Of
fetal ball for 1912. The wrangle will
be continued today, for the magnates
are right where they started. 1t is
limited that opinion is evenly divided
and that a deadlock is sure to be pre-
cipitated- Half the magnates are in
favor of renewing a contract with the
firm that now supplies the balls to the
league; the other half wished to en-
courage a rival firm firm. An armistice,
however. was established long enough
to attend to few other matters

Boston. Mass, Feb. 15.-Frank Klaus

Houek of Lancaster in their twelve
round bout here Houck was game to

round and should have won without the
bout going any further, but he was
too anxious, and instead of judging
and timing his punches was wild.
Houck was severely punished.

few paragraphs, but briefly, st. Anne
was the grandmother of Jesus Christ
the mother of Mary.
At Beaupre, a few miles from Que

in 1916 Since then one of the larg-
/ est churches in Canada. Since the
early day-as far back as 16sO-many
miracles are said to have been per-
formed here on their faith. They tell
of sick who have been made we'll and
cripples who have been healed. They
show you thousands of crutches and
appliances used by the lame who
came here crippled, but went away
whole. You see great punches of
pipes and similar things that have
been left as sacrifices by the healed.
And you see literally bushels of
watches, gold chains, gold rings and
jewellery that have been given by
the faithful this year of 1911 as free
will offerings. Each year the valu-
abIes are melted up and some image
or device made of the gold.
On Sunday thousands OF pilgrams
from all over Canada thronged the
grounds and the many chapels. Two
bands furnished music and met the
several excursion trains that brought
in the thousands. The great cathedral
was crowded and the town full of peo-
pie who came to worship and be
healed. And am told that it is
that way all summer long

there are times Of rest and quiet in
between. But on this trip we have
been on the go most of the time-in
the sleeper at night and on a street
car or carriage or a boat all day
long We have been having a sort
of moving picture show of Canada,
but the colors are natural and the
perfumes of the lovely wild flowers
and charming forests are quite real.
1t is really a delightful motion pic
ture show and my only regret is that
the performance is so short.
I write these letters when 1 feel
like it, largely for my own pleasure,
and Mr.. Emmerson sticks them in
when he hasn't enough copy of his
own to fill up, SO my friends may

When we were in Detroit the Gov

this was a junket trip of American

But whatever may have been the
sentiment of any one of the party in
Detroit it soon faded away. We have
been impressed everywhere that there
is no such sentiment in Canada. Can

and they were never greater than
Just at present.
However. with the bad start we
got through the jingo remarks of the
progressive governor of Michigan,
we have been received most cordially
everywhere, and the Canadian cm-
eials have treated us royalty. The
Interior Department detailed
man to accompany US and tell us
about the greatness of Canada, and
to answer all inquiries. We have
quite fallen in love with the coun-
try and its many sections of varied
interests.
We were charmed with the scenery
along the ST. Lawrence. We were
interested and delighted with the his
toric old town of Quebec. We were
surprised at the greatness of Mon

We were amazed at the evidences OF
