Be REELECTED AT
ANNUAL GATHERING
Committee to Report on Pur-
chase of Land Near

TORONTO TO PLAY
EXHIBITION CONTEST
Charlottesville Matter to Be Set
tied Finally This
Week.
Rv SENATOR

At the annual meeting of the Wash
ington Baseball Club in the club head
quarters Tuesday at noon, the entire
present board of directors and officers
are expected to be reelected. The club
is successful and there is no reason for
any changes in the personnel of the Of
ficers.
The only important transaction will
b the report of committee upon the
possibilities of purchasing a strip of
land Immediately adjacent to the ball
park behind the right field fence. 1t is
the intention of the club to buy this
land, If possible, and move back the
garden wall so that lads like Ty Cobb.
Joe jackson, and Harry Lord cannot
bounce the pill over it for homers.
The Toronto club, champions Of the
international League, will be seen here
next spring In an exhibition game the
day before the regular season gets un-
Ser way, April 9. The Maple Leafs
have many former big leaguers and
some promising youngsters who should
attract a good-sized throng of the faith
iui Only two or three more games
will be scheduled by Manager Griffith.

'Massa" John Henry. the Climbers
big backstop, is in the Georgetown Uni
yresity Hospital where. he will under
go an operation on his injured knee
either today or tomorrow. A floating
cartilage must be removed before he
will regain his old form behind the bat
The operation is not considered serious
and ne Is expected to be on his feet in
side of week.
This week is expected to bring final
decisions regarding the training camp
OF the Climbers for 1918. Manager Grif-
nth expects word from representatives

suitable quarters then, he will con-
slider invitations from other towns.

excellent offer and stands a good
chance OF having II accepted, IL Char

Fortress Monroe has put in a good
cision until he has looked into the
matter carefully.
Donlin on Move.
Mike Donlin is to move again. The
presence of Willie Locke at the head
of the Phillies means that the smuggling
Mike must go to some other club.
Locke doesn't think Donlin fast enough
for a major league club. He thinks
that, II Mike wasn't good enough for
the Pirates. he can't be good enough
for the Phillies. Donlin got 5000 for
siamming the pellet IN Pittsburgh. and
a drop to the minors will make a big
cut in this stipend.

FIRE AND GASOLINE MIX
With UNPLEASANT RESULT

While Charles Weber was at work
in the cleaning house or Preston X
Mccartney, in the rear of that COM
pany's store, late yesterday afternoon
there was a sudden flash caused in
some unknown way, and Weber barely
escaped, suffering nut sngnt burns on
his hands.
The flames at once filled the build
ing. but We're soon subdued by the
fire department, to whom the firm
wishes to express high appreciation.
The building had just been erected
to house some fine cleaning machinery,
which was badly damaged.
A tank Of twenty gallons Of gasoline
in The building in which clothing was
soaking failed to explode.
Preston X Mccartney announce that
they will at once put in an even more
complete plant than that destroyed.
The property was covered by insur-
ancc and the loss on the owners will
consequently prove small.

new industrial process whereby wood
pulp is changed into a silk like fiber
which is more luslrOus and beautiful
than genuine silk in many respects.
The pulp is converted into a gclatine
which is spun into thread by being
forced through tiny tubes. The sticky
thread passes Immediately into a soIu-
ton which hardens it. 1t is then dried
and wound on bobbins.
Ordinarily artificial silk will not stand
washing, so it is used in the manufac !
ture of neckties and curtains Artificial
silk can be an honest product. 1t IS
very cheap and ought to have wide USE.
But in the absence of pure fabric law
it is being sold as silk at silk prices,
and the public is being defrauded.

given a kink and oily feeling by 4
manufacturing process which makes it

Shoddy is now being so skillfully
blended with new fleece wool in weav-
ing that even laboratory tests cannot
detect it.
7 These are some of the more common
frauds being practiced with immunity
on the helpless public. The solution is
pure cloth law. The law should not
discourage the reclaiming of used wool
or the manufacture Of artificial prod
ucts. But when the consumer pays
