Fed Club in Agreement to Get Sir
Men Each from Majors.

the American League when 1t Warreo
on the National, Federal League
magnates are said to be banded to-
gether in an agreement to sign si1
big league players each for the COM
ing season.
That was the system employed BY
the American, and the results are
self-evident. The men secured will
not necessarily be stars, but they
will be of major league caliber, and
well known to fans all over the coun-
try.
If the Feds manage to put over this
colossal annexation they will imme'
diately gain a strong foothold in big
league territory, and their success in ,
the minor league cities viii be as
sured.
One club, Kansas City, already has
announced the signing of it's quota
Of big leaguers from organized ball
Two of the players are George Stow
all and George Baumgardner, both
of the st. Louis Browns. The names
of the other quartet will not be re-
.vealed at the present time.
Past performances of the Federal
League do not indicate a bluff. In
every transaction the third leaguers
have gone about their business in a
dignifed manner, and have refrained
from press agenting impossible
dreams. They started their career in
a modest way and weathered the
first season. Playing out the initial
schedule is always the hardest stunt
for a newcomer in baseball. If it
succeeds the league has certain pres
tige.
The offers so far made to major
league stars seem to be bona fide
contracts. In practically every in
stance the Feds, as an evidence of
good faith, have offered to place the
money to cover the terms of the
agreement in the bank, which insur-

Wisconsin Commission Lays Down
Weight Ruling.

pounds more than Jack Br1tton their
scheduled fight Monday night in Mil
waukee will be prohibited by the Wis
consin boxing commission.
This information was given out by
the secretary of the commission, and
the ruling was based on a clause of
the boxing law which says no light
weight or smaller man shall be al
lowed to go against an opponent who
outweighs him ten pounds.
According to reports on the weight
of Mcfarland and Britton, the ruling
means that Packey will have to labor
strenuously to pull off some of his
surplus poundage. In his fight with
Harry TrendaIl Packey is said to
have scaled in the neighborhood of
LAG pounds. Britton weighed 134 the
first day he arrived in Chicago.
If Mcfarland really did weigh 146
he will have a hard time meeting the |
requirements. Neither Mcfarland nor
his manager would comment on the
weight question. Dan Morgan, Brit |
toms director, affected to be much |
overjoyed at the commissions ulti-
matum.
Out on the coast they are prating
of the fact that Harlem Tommy Muir |
phys past record is better than that
of Champion Willie Richie, whom |
he meets for the title Dec. 10.
That is mighty poor argument,
but coast fans are strong partisans
of the New York Irishman. Murphy |
is a grand fighter, and he has bet
ter dope sheet than Richie, but he
is not in the champions class now.
For 13 years Murphy has been a
championship contender, and this is
the first time he has had welt at
the crown. And conditions are
against him. Richie has youth and
speed, punch, and the weight agree
ment is all in his favor. =

kins seeks to restrain Board and other

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvoR WORK

Christian Endeavor is an interde-
nominational organization therefore its
members will welcome the plan of the
union missionary conference to be
held at the auditorium of the Winter
Bible School in Leesburg. The date is
February 14th-16th, and all those
either young in years or heart are in
vited to attend. There will be pro-
gram taking in various kinds of
church, home and foreign benevolent
giving and devotional services led by
ministers of different church denomi-
nations but all united in Christian fell
lowship. One hundred delegates should
come. Entertainment will be at the
luxurious Hotel Heights, situated in
the same grounds as the school audi
forum, where sessions will be held
The price greatly reduced will be on
the ST day plan for those who attend
the missionary conference.
We wish those receiving quarterly
report blanks for the three months
ending Jan. 1st, would fill them
promptly and return one, keeping the
other on file in the society. This same
plan is used by Juniors, and their
superintendent sometimes have the
same habit of secretaries for Young
Peoples societies in not attending to
the report work in a business-like
manner for promptness.
The state convention is at Winter
Park, March 18th. Do not forget the
date. Is your society getting ready to
send two delegates? Have you asked
your pastor to attend? Last year did
not have enough pastors present. Let
us try to have a large number of them
there this year. Mr. W. r. Newell will
conduct one or more conferences on
Bible study. Mr.. and Mrs. Strother,
missionaries for China for the Worlds
Union of Christian Endeavor, will
have a prominent part on the pro-
gram. We expect to have splendid
convention. Please remember to pray
often for its lasting success.
The state secretary was chosen by
President Coffin to act as transporta-
ton agent for Los Angeles, 1913"
Much difficulty is found in getting
reasonable round rates for delegates
from here. Tt is probable that we viii
join with one or more other state
unions when making the trip TO the
far western state and the great inter-
national convention there. Just as
