SAN FRANCISCO, April 5.-Because OF

INDIANAPOLIS, April 5.-The man.
ayers of seven other American League
clubs insist that the Tigers, in all their
glory of new material, haven't secured
man who looks worthy of a trial in fast
company
That is surely the only way in which
the action of the other clubs, all of
whom have waived on the young. Tigers,
can be interpreted.
All the other American League clubs
have formally told Detroit that none of
the young Tigers looks good to them at
the nominal price of $1.5OO.
What! Not even $1,JCO for the be-
wildering Covington. the smuggling Drake,
the graceful Cayet, the burly Mitchell. the
brainy Beckendorf. the speedy Works?
Just exactly that.
Some OF them cost the Detroit club
thousands. They have impressed Man
ager Jennings favorabIy. In fact, he has
gone so. far as to term them the best
looking bunch of youngsters he has ever

managers don't seem to think so.
How It Happened.
| 1t may seem strange to the fans that
| Detroit has been able to secure waivers
on all the young material with the club
and some Of the semi-veterans. Yet such
is the case. In a diplomatic way Presi-
dent Navin has been going about the job
of placing the superfuous recruits in their
1911 minor league berths. Before entering
| Systematically on this task he made up
his mind to secure waivers on as many
of them as he could. In case some other
American League manager should fancy
one of the men, it would be impossible to
| turn him over to minor league club.
| So Mr.. Navin asked for waivers on
| every young player on his list. There
were fifteen names mentioned in all
Somewhat to his surprise every Ameri-
can League club waived on every Detroit
player mentioned. AS a result, Mr.. Navin
| is able to go conscientiously about the
work of putting his discarded youngsters
in places where they will do him and
themselves the most good.
OF course, the fact that the other
American League managers didn't fancy
the Tigers kits doesn't impair local con-
fidence in them in the least. Some of
the names were inserted in the waiver
list, not because there was a chance in the
world that the men would be let go. but
merely to befog the issue and distract the

In one respect the Nationals Will make

opens the chances are that McAleer
team will have played but one eXhlpltlon
game against another club. The game
with Atlanta a few weeks ago will be
the only one. The Pittsburg club plays
but few exhibition games in the spring.
Usually one or two are played after the
team leaves Hot Springs and starts for
the place where the season is to be
opened.
McAleer was virtually forced to play
games among his own players for the
reason that it was evident long ago that

price was not given out. The springs

purchasers will spend goodly sum in

will modernize the hotels and grounds

Madison county are more than pleased

In the deal the Kelley rights are also

who has been in charge of this depart
ment, will remain. This will be good
news to many who know the doctor.
With the improvements that Col Will

High Honor
To Judge James Benton, BY

Frankfort.

Madison county shares in the high
honor that has just been paid Judge J.
NJ. Benton by the Press and bar Of
Frankfort, for he is a product of this
county, and one of whom she is justly
proud. Gov. Wilson, realizing the i'm
portance of the special session of the
Franklin circuit court which was to be
held the last two weeks in January, cast
his eye around for circuit Judge who
couh interpret the law, and he very
wisely selected Judge Benton.
The Frankfort Journal says: Judge
Benton, of Winchester, who presided as
special Judge at the January term Of
the Franklin Circuit Court, which closed
yesterday, made most remarkable
record. The amount of business that he
disposed of in less than four weeks was
enormous and surprising; and the over
loaded docket was greatly relieved. He
is conscientious man and an indefaii-
gable worker. He is one of the best
lawyers and judges in the state. HIS
mind is always clear and absolutely I'M
partial He is quick without being
hasly, resolute without the slightest
touch of severity, and unlailingly imper-
turbable ami courteous.
During his stay here he won the adj
miraiion, even the affection, of all who
came in contact with him, and all the
members OF the bar, the court officials,
jurors and litigants universally praise
him. The banquet rendered him by the
bar Thursday night was splendid test

that "the purchasing of the F. & G. rail-

tions at Frankfort and Paris, is the
same in Richmond. Competition is the
life of trade and town without two or
more competing railroads is seriously
handicapped. OF course the L. & A.
was a small road, but it was a compe-
titor nevertheless The slow unpro-
gressive movements of the Southern and

On account of his wife and son being

who has been quite sick, is recovering

concerning the rumor of the vessels
being blown up: 1.-THE Captain of the
