IN THE THREE-EYE

Bloomington Paragraph: That the
Manager Harry Bay will be in the run
ming at all times will no longer be
doubted by the local fans. The talent
already signed indicates a first divis-
ion position. Some doubt which has
existed concerning the requirement OF
the Nashville battery, Keupper and Err
loft, has been dissipated and the two
players will report for spring training
with Bloomington, this information
having been given out yesterday by
Secretary Joe Keller of the baseball
association. Keupper was with Peoria
several years ago and is one of the
best who ever performed as a slab
artist in the Three-Eye. Erloff was
change catcher for Nashville last year
and comes with a good record. Both
are in fine condition and will no doubt
rank as the peer of any battery in the
league. Tom Brown. pitcher; J. b Nc
Nabb, outfield, and w. A. Hoberg,
catcher, have been purchased by
Bloomington. All three men were with
Chattanooga in the Southern league
last year and come with good records.
Manager Bay having seen them per-
form. Brown is said to be an excel.
lent outfielder in addition TO his pitch
ing ability, and was frequently used as
a pinch hitter last season. They were
formerly with the Virginia league, hav-
ing been drafted. President Cline of
Clinton will be in the city today, a
deal for securing BuTgwald. shortstop.
and Marks, pitcher, to be closed upon
his arrival Both are thought to be
ready for this league, having shown ex-
ceptional form in the Illinois Missouri;
last year. Marks was with Galesburg
in 1910 and is big man of great
promise and will no doubt be one OF
the most promising young slabmen in
the league.

RACE FOR President
Nearly All Are In Prime Of Life
And All Have Practiced

In an article in the June American

facts:
at Is interesting to know that every
one of the seven candidates, even in
GLIDING Roosevelt. has boon admitted
TO the bar, and five Of them have had
successful careers In the law. Two have
been Judges. No one Of them is a busi-
ness man, and no one. save Mr.. Harmon
has had any considerable experience
with business affairs. either large or
email. No one of theip is rich man
and though several of them, by virtue
of their high talents. have been able mt
times to earn large incomes, they have
all been hard workers. Two or three of
them have been relatively poor men all
their lives. living frugally and devaing
themselves unreservedly to public work.
IAN of the candidates. save w,son,
have had long experience in public office
and In dealing with public men and
public questions. While most of them
can be called able politicians, no one Of
them belongs To that extreme type
known as a machine politician; a boss,
There Is TO the credit Of every one OF
them not little sound public service.
IAN of the seven, save possibly Har-
mon, are Mt the very prime of life for

ages:

Roosevelt, 81 years old.
Taft, IS years old.
Wilson, IS years old.
La-lo'l ette. 81 years old.
