RAIN CHECKS GOOD
BUT FOUR INNINGS
New Tri-State Rule Will Hit
Baseball Fans Hard
This Year

II has been a rule in the Tri-State
League for several seasons to issue the
checks at the expiration of four and
one-half innings. Not. so in 1911 Nc
more will the pessimistic Wilmington
fan who beholds his team in the hole
and notices lowering clouds on the
horizon pray for rain, that he may
obtain a check and attend on the NOR.
row. One-half inning has been clipped
from the rain limit and should Il
sprinkle after the completion of the
fourth inning this year a welcome
pasteboard will be handed you at the
gate.
II seems that the curtailing Of ths
rain check limit is finding favor OF
the eastern and western circuits wher,
the innings on the completion of which
rain checks are good have been re-
duced TO three, and in some cases two
innings

A Picture of Eternity,

The negro preacher is noted for his
enthusiasm and his picturesque, almost
poetic, way of expressing things. In
Life In Old Virginia J. J. Mcdonald
tells about a colored minister who was
conducting a revival without much
success. At last, however, he awak-
ened his congregation by asking:
Does yo' know what eternity is?
Well, I tell yO'
''If one of dem IrP sp6rrows what
yo' see round yo' garden bushes was

4 Tribute TO Woman,

When everything around a man stag

and dim in the far distance Of the un-
known future, when the world seems
but a picture or a fairy tale and the
universe a chimera, when the whole
structure of ideas vanishes in smoke
and all certainties become enigmatical,
what is the only permanent thing
which may still be his? The faithful
heart of a woman. There he may rest
his head; there he viii renew his
strength for the battle Of life, increase
his faith in Providence and, if need
be, find strength to die in peace with

Section as reported provoked A lively
discussion. Hon. Herbert NJ. Heath of
Augusta spoke strongly in opposition to
the second section of the proposed act
on the ground that it gave extraordinary
powers to the law court. Hon. Charles
+. Libby of Portland. president of the
National Bar Association. favored the
section. saying that it was practically
the act which prevailed in New Hamp-
shire. Mr.. Streeter. the guest of the af-
ternoon. declared that the measure work
ed we'll in New Hampshire.
The motion 10 adopt Section was lost
by decisive vote. Judge Levi Turner of

Hon. Job II. Montgomery of Rockland
presented to the association the resolu-
ton of the Knox county bar in favor of
a law court independent of the nsi prius
court. He declared that the present sys-
tenn was entirely wrong. He believed
that such a system could be formed of
berland and Kennebec counties Presi-
dent Libby of the National Bar Assocfa-
tion spoke in Opposition to the measure
and said that Cumberland county was
so well satisfied that it would not disturb
its superior court. He was opposed to
the commitment of the association at this
late hour to such a resolution and advo-
Gated the reference of to a committee
to report at a subsequent meeting. Mr..
Heath pointed out that the adoption of
this resolution would mean the formation
of new appellate court, and asked what
would become of the present supreme ju-
dieial court under such an arrangement.
1t was finally decided to leave the whole
question of the matter of the reorganiza-
tion of the State judicial system to a
committee of five TO report at a special
meeting of the association to be called
by the president and held on the second
Wednesday in February. The chair nam
