Minneapolis. March 25.-With new
men joining the squad daily and the

baseball prospects at Manchester COL
lege are beginning to shine with a new
luster. Although the damp condition
Of the diamond on Shaw field has kept

the campus where the players can get
the needed practice. Manager Wilson

ular diamond for the season and
promises the usual first class playing
field for the Macs.
Opening the 1912 season at the state

DULUTH AND "MINNEAPoIds

Duluth, March 25.-Dr. J.. A. Nc
Cuen indicated yesterday that there
would be q speedy settlement Of the
existing misunderstanding between the
Minny league officials and club owners
and the officials of the local club. The
doctor fntimated that he was going to
make 1t a point to have a personal
conference with John A. Elliott, presi-
dent of the league. when he hoped
that matters would be satisfactorily
Strengthened out.
Duluth owes the Minny league some
money and it Is to be presumed that
this financial difficulty will have to be
adjusted before the officials of the
league will allow this town to ko it's
way unhampered by the restrictions
that are thrown around organized
baseball.
The doctor further intimated that
there might be something doing with
in the next few days. Maybe the base
ball situation is getting warm. There
Is nothing definite that you can put
your finger upon, but there are some
glittering generalities that "a to make
up gossip until they sign them pa
pers."
And in the meantime with the
weather forgetting all n OF de-
cency. the mind Of man runneth to the
fur coat and furnace rather than to
the airy subject Of baseball.

SPEAKING OF THE WEATHER.

The central fortress of the weather
bureau is supposed to be esta blishcd
in Washington. where the bulk of all
climatical bulletins emanate. But it
would be interesting to know just how
many words were dispatched by wire
from Philadelphia last October and
from spring camps of March which
involve nothing else but a classical
discussion of weather conditions.
The weather is n highly interesting
topic of fashionable chit.chat. of
course. but it's a question as to wheth-
err it is worth upward of three million
words at the press rate assessment.

TRAILING WITH KINGSLEY

When all the game is young. lad,
n pitching arms arc new:
Before your string is strung. lad;
Before you're overdue.
It's time to grab the kale, lad,
And swing to what you've got;
Young blood must soon grow stale. lad,
And stars are quickly not.
For when the game is old, lad.
And batting lamps are pale:
The tale is quickly told, lad.
The CLINT is off the kale.
Today your high abode is
A star among the push;
But, oh. how brief the road ia
From Broadway 10 the bush.

SPORTING LIGHTS
THE DOPE on FoRD.

A we'll known American league ball
player penned a magazine article upon
Russ Ford last summer in which the
Highland premier vas classed las
purely a mechanical pitcher depending
for his success mainly upon Sweeney's
intelligence"
Some n must have been kidding
the athlete in question or his story
Il have been penned between a
nightmare and a hold-over. Ford is
only not purely mechanical" but
is n of the kcenest students in the
game. There are not four people
pitching big league ball who have
studied conditions closer, who know
more about the type of batsmen they
better in the face of an upset.
One Of the Stars.
Ford should rank. before his time
is out. as one Of the great slahmen
of balloon, surpassed by no one. He
packs along the three necessary re-
quirements for pitching greatness-thc
brains. the nerve and the stuff. He
Is a good, game figlter-one of the
gamest Of them all. His record shows
hut II extra inning loss in two years,
which is Nroof enough Of his fitness in
times of stress.
In two major campaigns--with a
Sluu IL scCuIu place dlu d CluD IN
siXth--the Highlander has fought
through sixty-five games with forty
eight victories. against seventeen de-
feats.
He has faced the hardest hitting
set Of batsmen in baseball-Cobb, La
joie. Crawford. Jackson. Baker. Col
lins. Speaker. Delehanty, etc. with an
average of .740-the greatest ever
for the first two seasons
work of any slabman in history.

ShG said also that Arthur was suffering from a chronic skin disease for which he took a medicine containing the mineral poison with which Mrs. Lindloff is accused of killing him.
