COOLEY KEEPS PLEDGE
His Salt Lake Team Finishes just
Short of Pennant,

Dick Cooley is keeping the vow he
made the last year he was in Topeka,
Long before he sold the local team
Richard called upon the high heavens
10 witness that If he ever owned an
other ball team he would not win a
pennant. No more gonfalons for Rich
ard because when a town once got a
remnant the fans were never satisfied
without one, he declared, and he
would not spoil another good baseball
town.
The race in the Union Association OF
which CooleYs Salt Lake team is a
member, is finished, the closing games
having been played Sunday. Missoula
won the. pepnant, .Cooley's team fin
ishing second Last year Spencer Ar
thur Abbott had to hunt for weak
pitchers to keep from winning the
penhant but finally managed to finish
in second place.
Cooley declared when the fans quit
the game here that he had ruined a
pretty good baseball town by winning
couple of pennants. He said that il
he had finished second or third the
fans would have stuck by even losing
team Indications are that Richard
was right in this declaration
Behind Salt Lake finished Great
Falls. Ogden, Butte and Helena. The
feature of the season was the showing
of Ogden in the last half. The season
was a money maker.

Try bleeding at Larned.

Larned, Kan, Sept. 9.-The first
possibility of cure for the dread
horse plague in this part Of the state
has developed in Hodgeman county,
where blood letting has been used with
marked success. In practically every
case in which from one to four quarts
of blood have been let from the jugu-
lar vein the horse has improved re-
markably within few hours. Several
animals given up as in a hopeless con-
dition were up and eating eight or ten
hours after the operation. Those who
have used this method are enthusiastic
about it. They state, however, they
have no evidence whatever that the
method will effect At permanent cure
The first four animals on which the
method was tried experimentally are
now running around the pasture as
usual, but are being watched closely
for signs of a relapse.
Disease Reaches Allen County.
lola. Kan, Sept. "a case reported
to an lola veterinarian today indicates
that the plague thai has been raging
among the horses in central and west
ern Kansas may have reached Allen
county. Less than twenty miles from
lola rear the Woodson county line, a
horse was stricken with illness very
similar to that with which western
horses have suffered. DR.. u. B. Nc
Intire to whom the case was reported,
said that the symptoms clearly indi-
Gated that the animal died of disease
very similar, if not absolutely identi-
cal, with the plague attacks. The
horse was suddenly stricken, became
dull and unable to eat and finally
dropped over dead.
News of the case has spread
throughout the county and farmers
are rushing orders for emergency
remedies. Veterinarians say they do
not wish to cause unnecess airy alarm,
but advise that every precautioE be
raken to handle the disease if it breaks
out. The theory here is that worms
cause the disease and treatments are
sent cut accordingly.
