REPORTED TRADE
WITH NAPL ANOtRS
Carrigan for Lajoie Is Lates,
Dope Spilled From Over
worked Winter Mill.

Boston. Mass. January 1.-Tnere is a
rumor in this city that the Bost IN
Americans may trade Catcher Bill Car
rigan to the Cleveland Maps for Second
Baseman Larry Lajoie. formerly the
star batsman OF the American League
The Cleveland club is willing to give
up Lajoie if it can get a good offer.
and is particularly anxious to strength
en- its catching department.
II King Larry sh ould come here he
would be used al FIRST base. CarriSan
could be spared by the Red Sox. as
Cady will DO the bulk Of the Boston
catching next season. and NunamakeT
is a good relief man.
Lajoie says he would like to play
in Boston. as he thinks it is the best
ball town in the world. He would be
a big attraction for the Worlds Cham
pions.
There are many other American
clubs which could use L.ajoie OF
course the veteran may not be as good
as he was several years ago. but just
the same he would be a pleasing sight
at second base for either the Yankees
or Browns. With run needed to
win and a man on base. the veteran is
as welcome a sight 10 pitcher as
charging rhinoceros might be to a hun
ter who has Just discovered that he
has forgotten to load his gun Larry
may not cover the ground he once did.
but he still covers more than most
ball players.
The Senators are another aggreSa-
ton which might use him TO advan-
tage. Griffith was never able TO find
an entirely satisfactory man for tie
second sack. In Morgan he had a man
VIII, could cover ground. and in J.aporte
a man who could bat. but neither one
combined the two things. I,sioie can
Geld better than Morgan and bat bet
ter than Laporte and Morgan put to-
Cether.
Detroit and the White SoX might find
use for I.ajose as first basensn. In
fact il would appear ts8t every team
il the league is in m 1re vital need OF
rho veteran than is Boston and there
fore might be prepared 10 Offer bet
ter trade for him.

shortly consumed the building Mrs Clar-
ence Barker OF North Ogden dashed into

morning and rescued her 2-year old
daughter. who was found unconscious
with flames all about her The discovery
of the child In the burning barn was not
made until after Mrs. Barker had
searched the neighborhood for the little
sirl and also her 4-year-old son
1t was about 9 o'clock when the mother
returned home. after having been in
formed that the children had not been
seen outside their own dooryard during
the morning. When Mrs. Barker saw
the little boy standing In front OF the
closed door OF the barn she asked him
regarding his sister Upon being told
that she was In the barn the mother
opened the door, only to be driven back
by rush of smoke. Screaming for help,
she dashed into the building and was
fortunate In finding the little girl after
a brief search, The child was lying on
hay with the flames creeping up about
her. Neither Mrs. Barker nor the little
girl was found to be injured

cry OF the fire the barn was a mass OF
flames. With the assistance OF neIghbors,
Mrs, Barker was successful in keeping
the fire from spreading to other buildings
on the place. The loss is estimated at
$500, 1t is supposed that the children
started the fire, but how they gained
entrance to the barn is mystery. as the
ca tch was fastened and was SO high that
neither OF the children could possibly
have reached H.
Mr.. Barker, who was In this city, did
not learn Of the tire and narrow escape
of his daughter until he reached home
