A suggestion made in the Washington
papers looking to the location of Vir-
einia League club i'm Washington was
evidently made by some one who talked
before he thought twice. In the first
place. a farm for the Washington Ma
tionals would give the minor league team
an aggregation to make a runaway in
the race. 1t would be impossible to keep
a team in the Virginia League on the
road during the long engagement of a
major league at home when they are
there. The suggestion has nothing prac-
ticable to 1t, from miuor league view
point and, indeed. it sounds as though IL
was made by some of the sporting scribes

Deformed Girl Escapes Deporta-

Theresa Sabold lived in Galicia. and there
were thrty-eight miles between her and
the nearest railroad. But thirty-eght miles
were nothing to Theresa when she made up
her mind that she wanted the broader
life that lay for her beyond the seas. She
didn't have the price Of taxi when her
mind became made up. or maybe there
was no taxi within call. Anyway, she
walked.
II was cold the day that Theresa went
away. for il was i'm February. When, at
last. she boarded the Bremen train. her
weary feet were badly bitten by the frost.
She should have returned home but the
big steamer looked so nice that she just
had TO go on. The Brandenburg's arrival
in New York was the signal for Theresa :
