NEW BASEBALL FRATERNITY.
Major League Players Formally
Launch Protective Organization.

New York.-Major league baseball
players have formally launched their
new protective organization. 1t is
known as the National and American
League Baseball Fraternity and it's
certificate of Incorporation was
signed by Supreme Court Justice De-
laney.
According to the petition for incor-
poration its object is to foster fra
ternal feeling among the players in
the two big leagues. While the arti-
cles of incorporation have not been
made public, it is generally believed
the players generally intend for mu-
tual protection to demand represen-
tation of their brotherhood in the
councils of organized labor
The call for the organization re-
suited from the difficulties of Ty
Cobb which precipitated strike
among the Detroit team in Philadel-
phia early in the season.

Obituary.

Mary Zulieme Gray was born in
Lane county, Oregon, April II, 1886,
and died at l o'clock in the morning
of September 13, 1912, after long,
| lingering illness She was able to be
about until five months ago, since
which time she had been confined to
her bed. She realized her condition
and was perfectly, reconciled to the
coming change.
She was well known in Ashland
! having been a student of the state
normal for number of months. She
afterwards attended the Mount Angel
| Academy, making speciality of mu-
sic, then spent a year in Landon Con-
servatory of Music, Dallas, Texas
This was in 1908 and 1909; but her
health breaking, she left this school
the end of the school year and was
not we'll again afterwards. She was
married to r. D. Gray, September 13,
1910, just two years to day before
her death. After marriage she lived
in St. Paul, Mimi, for year and
then for few months in Little Rock,
Ark, before her return to Oregon.
She leaves a husband, mother,
one sister, Mrs. Keeney, and four
brothers. She was member of the
Christian church of Ashland.
One of the chief elements of the
character of this departed one, as we
remember it, was cheerfulness. She
always met her friends and every
one with a smile. In school work
she was never found complaining
about anything or anybody; she was
loyal to her teachers and to her
school,
The funeral services were at the
residence of her mother, on Eighth
street, East Ashland, at 10 O'Clock
Sunday, conducted by Rev w. T.
Vna Scoy. A large number of
friends and neighbors of the family
attended. The interment was in
Mountain View cemetery. The city
male quartet furnished very fitting
music, and flowers and floral en-
blems were brought in great pro-
| fusion. The pall-bearers were

A Famous Stone.

Everyone has heard of rocking
stones-masses of rock so delicately
poised as to move backward and for
ward upon the slightest impulse.
There are many such stones scattered
throughout the world, but the ma
jority of them are mere marbles
compared with the famous rocking
stone of Tandil, in South America.
This giant among rocking stones
weighs no less than 700 tons and is
situated in low range of hills some
$50 miles south of the city of Buenos
Ayres. 1t is composed of granite
and contains 1870 cubic meters. 1t is
in the shape of paraboloid, four
meters high and five meters in di-
ameter at the base. The stone rocks
upon knob of rock beneath, which
fits closely into socket-like hollow
in the great boulder itself. The ac-
tion of the elements through count
less centuries has succeeded in wear
ing away the softest part of the
stone, leaving behind only the hard
er gritted core. The stone is so deli
cately poised that it can be made to
crack a walnut without crushing the
kernel

NEW IBERIA WOULD PROFIT
MUCH.

The subjoined editorial under
title, "Printed in Monroe is re-
produced from the Monroe indie
pendent Of March Goth and meets
with the Enterprises approval.
In fact all home business houses
should be given preference over
outside houses seeking business In
iberia Parish. Without the
proper cooperation no commun-
lty can prosper.
The article is as follows:
Hereafter every job Of print
ing executed by Monroe printeries
will bear the imprint, Printed
in Monroe. This will be done,
primarily, to help the printing
business by showing what the
Monroe shops can do, and, Sec
ondarily, to further the propa-
ganda which we all shout but all
do not practice, "Patronize Home
Industries.
If the printing Of a Monroe
concern which depends upon
home patronage does not bear this
imprint it will be known that the
concern is sending it's work
abroad.
The printers and publishers Of
Monroe in soliciting business arc
daily brought in competition with
foreign concerns and met with the
statement. 81 can get this done
cheaper in Keokuk, +" or some 9TH
err place where there are printe-
ries specializing certain lines.
So can the printers and people
generally of Monroe buy things
they need cheaper from foreign
specializing houses than they can
from home concerns, but they dc
not do it. They make their mon
ey from home people and spend it
with home people.
There are numbers Of Monroe
concerns that only make a con-
venience Of the home printers,
giving them an order now and
then when they are caught in a
pinch and want the work fright
now sending all their regular
orders abroad at stated intervals
as the travelling man Of the for
eign concern calls. Suppose all
the home people who patronize
those establishments adopted the
same narrow-minded policy, how
long would they survive! .
People should practice what
they preach and all Monroe peo-
pie should preach and practice
Patronize Home Industries. =
Think is over.
