You will be told anything to
suit the occasion, and as soon as
the election is over and they are
safe in Office, you will be thrown
into the alley. They wont need
you any longer then and you can
go to farming for a living while
they sit in your court house and
levy taxes on you, off of which
they feed, and buy whisky for
the next election. There is one
thing you can always get from
the ring" and that is whisky.
They will give you all the whisky
you want or can drink, for they
know that whisky degrades, and
they want to get you down to
their level.
They will tell you they will run
you for office next time and that
all of their gang will stand by
you to a man, and guarantee
your election, if you will help
elect them this time"
They will solemnly promise,
with their hand raised to high
heaven the very same thing to
twenty different people, when
they know they can't and don't
intend to try to do it. All they
want to do is to deceive you into
supporting them at the coming
election. No government mule
ever had the unbridled gall pos
sessed by some of Cheyenne
Wells republican aspirants for
Office. One in particular, a
ruffian of the sacred order of
pluto, who is scratching himself
to pieces with the itch in his de-
sire to remain at the public crib.
Gall, unadulterated and chemi-
cally pure is as nothing compared

The announced plan is to start the

will be played when the other teams

For this reason no schedule will be

No playing managers have been chosen.
but the promoters are confident that they
will have several prominent players with
them. Plans were perfected today Tor

MACK GIVES HIM INCREASE
Turned Down Stage Offer to Spend
the Winter on His
Farm.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, January 13.-John
Franklin Baker. the star third bagman Of
the worlds champions, this afternoon
signed a contract in the office of Manager
Connie Mack In the tall tower at Shibe
Park.
Baker has been at his farm in Mary
land since the close of the base ball
season. He was flooded with offers to go
on the stage. one firm offering the Trappe
''phenom'' as much as 500 for a ten
week engagement, but Baker said that
there was nothing he could do on the
stage and that he did not care to get
along as an actor on his ability TO slam
the ball. He did not mean this as shot
at Charles Doom of the Phillies, who has
a splendid voice. or tap at '.Rube'
Marquard who had an exceptionally
clever girl in his act with him.
Baker is a ball player in the summer
and he said that there was NJ sum that
could make him miss the duck shooting
on the Chesapeake bay this winter.
The length of years that Bakers con-
tract calls for or the sum was not made
public but it is thought that Connie Mack
steady fellow. and when he twice beat
the Giants, first hitting a home run off
Rube Marquard and then banging another
off Christy Mathewson. the entire ball
world idOlized the new wonder.
Baker, like Connie Mack, lodged as
much as possible the praise of the public
and he was hardly seen at his hotel after
the games.
Baker Immediately hied himself back
to Trappe, Nd, near Kings creek, where
he added a $500 tract of land to the
big farm he already owns there a few
months ago. lie is in fine shape and is
living the out-of-doors life. He expects to
be in great fettle when he leaves with
the worlds champions for the spring
training trip. When asked today If it
were true that he had been given a
big slice of money in advance of what
he was paid last season. Baker mercy
smiled his compiacent smile. There Is
little doubt however, but that Connie
Mack made an advance of last year $
salary, it being characteristic of the
Athletics leader that he does these things
quietly and without ever letting the lucky
, recipient know his intentions until the
, happy moment arrives.

| PITCHER ]. R. SALMON
Bresnahan Thought He Had
the Clever TWirIer, But
Lost Out.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, January 13.-The
national base ball commission in a find
ing handed down today denied the claim
of the st. Louis National League club
to Pitcher ]. r. Salmon. and decided
that the title to the player is vested
in the Philadelphia American League
club.
Manager Bresnahan contended that he
negotiated with Salmon's father for the
services of the young player. and that
he Joined the St Louis club at Brook
lyn, and practiced with the club the lat
ter part OF last season. Bresnahan de-
clared that the salary to be paid young
Salmon had been agreed upon. but that
upon the representations of the elder
Salmon that his son had promised to
pitch for an independent team for the
rest Of the season. and the further plea
that If he played with the st. Louis
club he would be ineligible to pitch
for the Princeton University team, he
was excused, with the understanding
that he was to report to the st. Loui.
club if he did not remain at college.
The commission found that the nego-
tiations between Bresnahan. the player
and his father were conducted in good
faith, but that neither a formal nor
written contract has been entered into
The ST. Louis club also failed to reserv,
| him. This entitled Salmon to be de-
clared free agent and eligible to con-
| tract with the Philadelphia club.
The commission dismissed the appeal
of Player Harry Martin. who requested
| that a decision of the national board
| disallowing his salary claim for $217
against the Central League be reversed
The appeal of Player Jay Parker from
the ruling of the national board deny
| ing his claim for $40 against the Cen
trail League was also disallowed.

GAME CANCELLED.
Army and Navy Props Fail to Meet
Gailaudet Reserves,

The basket ball game scheduled for
last night between the Gallaudet Re-
serves and Army and Navy Preparatory
School quintets failed to come on at
the Kendall Green gymnasium.
Manager Patterson Of the Buff and
Blue youngsters received word from the
Connecticut avenue school manager dur
ing the day of the visitors inability to
play at night, and as the Kendall Green
management did not care for q game
any other time than that scheduled. ne

that the last-minute canceling evil has
cropped out again, much to the regret
Of the Kendall Green management,

ALBANY, January 13.-Although Gov.
Dix has recommended the repeal OF the
Fraley boxing law. which legalized fistic
bouts In this state, the governor is
quoted as saying that his object was not
to abolish boxing entirely in this state.
but to bring it under stricter regula-
tons. The governor favors the enac-
ton of new law, in which every clause
shall be specific, even down to the exact
weight of the gloves which the men
should wear in the ring. He believes
that ten rounds is long enough for a
bout, and he intimated that he would
favor even a shorter number.

By Depositing Money.
SAVINGS Banks, Parents. Children and

Savings Banks, Parents. Children and
Education.
Augusta Herald.
There ought to be all intimate and
close connection between all these
four things. They are Of mutual help
and benefit. When working together
they produce the best results for indi-
vidual happiness and for the common
good.
There are two illustrations of what
they can accomplish.
"We agreed from the first, my wife
and T., said the father of boy, now
in school, "that we would contribute
25 cents q week to fund for the edu-
cation Of our son; and to keep US up to
the mark we have a little registering
bank in our room. When the savings
amount to $40 we put it in the savings
bank.
"When the amount reaches $40 or
30, and the savings bankinterest day
has gone by, I buy usually 500 bond.
There are many of these now on the
market, and I usually pick outone that
is selling at less than par and which
pays from to per cent INTEREST,".
Another parent undertook. to put
aside Is cents day for his boys edu-
cation. This plan was put into opera
tion on the day the boy went to school
for the first time. BE was six years
old. twenty-five cents a day amounts
to S91.25 year. Loaned out at s per
cent, and with the interest compound
ed, this man has found that in thirteen
years he has little over $4,000. Says
the father:
cat the age of 10 the boy is just
starting to the university, taking an
engineering course, so his money will
not increase any further. 1t will take
the s91 a year and the earning on the
$4,000 and some more, which I will ad
vance him, to meet his college expen-
ses.
81 never saw anything impress the
boy as has the growth of this fund.
1t has around into his nature the value
and power of steady saving. He will
start life with a neat capital and an
education-in fact, with all that any
boy needs.
Why not start savings bank fund
for your boy and girl and start it on
July 1st, when the banks open new
interest accounts?
