Honey Bread,

In Europe. where the food value OF
honey seems to be much better under
stood than in the United States, enor.
nous quantities are used. or late
years we seem to be waking to the
realization of the value OF honey as
wholesome and delicious article or
food and also as to its preservative
qualities. Cakes and sweetbreads
made with sugar soon become dry and
crumbly and to get the good OF them
must be eaten when fresh. but where
they are made up with honey they
seem to retain their moist freshness
indefinitely. In France honey bread
a year or eighteen months old Is pre-
ferred to that just made. They say
lit has rlpened." 1t Is the preserva-
tive. or rather the unchanging quality
of honey, that makes it SO popular

TO BEAT FEDS With
THEIR own MONEY

Cincinnati, o.. Jan. 9.The Federal
league is to be fought and slain with
its own bankrolI and the cold-eyed
of the major leagues are even
now framing the newest deadliest pol

All the credit for the trick is given to
the newest magnate. too. Baker of
Philadelphia, and a Philadelphia law

the play.
Instead OF threatening the jumpers
hereafter the boys will be encouraged,
helped, given air-tight legal advice
and made silent partners in the co,d-
blooded but extremely effective battle
plan. They are told to go ahead and
play ball-if they ever start-and
when they blow their Jobs will be
waiting for them.
Otto Knabe, so a the talk around
the commission meeting, is the first
mar selected to work out this scheme.
Advised in full by Mr.. Baker and the
Philadelphia lawyer. KnaQbe Jumps to
baltimore and gets his money first.
Every star who 'jumps' plays the
game as Tinker and Knabe played 1t.

pockets and their old positions open

EHLER SURE THAT
B0LYEA'S DEATH WAS
DUE TO ROUGHNESS

Madison, Wis, Jan. 9.-In a letter
Director George w. Ehler Of Wisconsin
comes back at the adverse criticism Of
his report to the national collegiate
death Of Werner S. Bolyea, Norwich
university football player, whose death
followed the playing of the Norwich
Holy Cross game of 1913. Tufts, who
letter to the National Collegiate asso-
citation, let it be known that "Bolyea
was not again tackled now was there
any piling on" as the report read.
Ehler's letter sets forth the follow
ing account Of the accident carried in
the Norwich university record of Oc-
tober last, and furnished him by the
dean of Norwich university:
Holy Cross united to Norwich. Bolyea
caught kick near side lines and ran 1t
back seventeen yards, when he was
hurled out Of bounds by ankle tackle.
At moment of being tackled Bolyea, in
an attempt to fall forward rather than
to be forced back, crouched and threw
order to accomplish purpose he was OBJ
liged to throw all weight from waist
up as far forward as possible, thus
shading the body in a half circle with
chin placed we'll down on chest. Just
before body reached ground another
Holy Cross man threw himself on Boil
yea from rear, forcing him forward and
down at the same time. AS a result he
landed on the back of his head with
face pressed against chest, forcing
shoulders up over head, f~racturing fifth
and sixth vertebrae- and completely
crushing spinal cord"
Enclosing the letter Ehler declares:
CLEARLY from foregoing account, you
could come to no other conclusion than
that the second tackle was unnecessary
and the actual of the accident"

PLAYERS FRATERNITY
WELL SATISFIED

New York, Jan. 9.-The committee
which represented the Baseball Play
ers' Fraternity before the. national
commission in Cincinnati last week is
sued a statement last night express
ing satisfaction at the granting of SO
large a proportion of their demands
and pleasure at the attitude of base
balls highest tribunal toward the
players. Regret was implied the
fraternity did not meet with more sue
cess for the minor league members
before the representatives Of the low
er class organizations. The. statement
reads.
we believe that in the Cincinnati
won a victory which a year ago could
not have been dreamed Of.
Twelve Of our requests were
granted, though modified, and two
withdrawn. Eight or ten of them were
opposed very vigorously but with the
utmost frankness and good feeling. !,
I'VE met far more opposition from
the minor league representatives than
from the national commission and
were, therefore, unable to do as much
for our minor league members as we
had hoped. But even as it is they will
be materially helped.
"These representatives we felt were
sincere in their belief that an undue
hardship would be placed upon them
unless some requests were modified
and, as we had no disposition to bring
this about, we waived the points.
1.-THE treatment accorded us, except
in the offensive attitude Of one Of the
c%onferees. was all that we could have
asked. We, were met in a fair, cordial
and dignified which, In view
OF the strained relations previously
existing, was gratifying in the ex-
treme."

TALKED
TO STUDENTS
REV. G. /. EvARTs or MOODY IN
sTlTUTE ADDRESSED STU
DENT OF FARGO COLLEGE AT
coNVocATIoN THIS MORN
ING.

Q G. L. Evarts of the extension
department of Moody institute, now
preaching in the city, was the speaker
yesterday and today at Fargo college.
Inc speech Of yesterday morning was
so much enjoyed by the students that
ne was invited to appear again this
morning.
Inc students had the opportunity of
Fronting by Rev. Mr.. Evart's eighteen
years OF experience as a religious
worker. A course Of three months
work was presented to the students
wlthin a single half hour, and many
nelpIul suggestions were received from
the use of large charts.
Rev. Mr.. Evarts drew freely from
the experiences Of his own life. pre-
senting the qualifications of a success
1ui christian worker in a clear rea-
sonable way. He advanced eight or
more general principles without which
a worker is materially handicapped.
FIRST ne must know that he himself
IS a true Christian, he must abstain
from sin, abolish all things with ques-
1onao influences, he must love souls,
ne must dwell on his work, p~ersevere.
n have his spirit filled through
prayer and study.
Rev. Mr.. Evarts especially stressed
tne reading of the Bible. He compli-
mented the common u~neducated
worker whose only advice to a pros
pecttve convert was Ego home and
read your Bible" although this may be
dangerously vague. 1t is similar to
the doctors prescription to a patient
go down to the drugstore and help
yourself"
What we need today, said the
speaker Is the educated, trained, eff
cient religious worker"

IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
ZIMMERMAN FLIRTING
WITH THE FEDERALS

Chicago, Jan. s. Perhaps c.. w.
Murphy of the Chicago Cubs may
have an opportunity to, turn his legal
batteries on the FederaIs sooner than
he expected, for Joseph Tinker, mana
ger of the local Federal league team,
announced that Heinie Zimmerman
was on the way here to confer with
him relative to signing an outlaw con-
tract. If Zimmerman is signed he
may go to some team outside of Chi
cago. -
Tinker has obtained the best results
or any of the outlaw manager &C
cordlng to report, and he is ready to
let h public in on his secret, but. he
Will have to wait for the other clubs
In the league to get their lineup
ready before he can disclose his team.
Tinker Claims Eight Big Fellows.
Eight big leaguers are to be on the
Chicago team, and Tinker says with
out any hesitation hat the fans will
accept his team without a murmur
when h names are made known.
Speculation as to the names hat he
Is going to have on his list is now one
or the favorite pastimes for the fol-
lowers of the game. The local. Fed
eral leader has said that he Is not
after any Of the Cubs or Sox players,
and he has lived up to his word in that
respect, he says, but he has not kept
away from some of the other big
league teams by any means. Max
Carey is one OF the players he is sup
posed to have lined up, but Tinker re-
fused to affirm or deny the story.
Carey is Diekerina.
Carey, who was one of the best men

nounced in st. Louis, his home, that
he is going to lay with the Chicago
Federals. He is to come here this
week to talk things over with Tinker,
and Tinker does not deny that he has
made an offer for him, but he will
not admit further than that.
1t has been a. hard thing to make
the public believe there is enough
money back of the new venture to
make a success, but the way the Feds
have been handing out the coin in the
contracts they have made. with, Tinker
and, Brown has convinced the most
stubborn of the doubters.

Wisdom q Franeis Grlerson.

Grierson in Humor of the Under
man: Perhaps the most discouraging
thing of the present time is the in
crease of knowledge and the decrease
of wisdom. There lever was a time
in the history OF the world when peo-
pie with a little learning had sc much
on their tongues and SO little in their
brains.
England has always been the spe-
cial hotbed for people afflicted with
the one-man mania. 1t was Carlyle
at one time, then Ruskin, then Glad
stone, then Browning. All who wor-
shipped at the shrine Of Dickens de-
tested Hugo, and the admirers of
Thackeray could see no virtue in Bal
FAC, while the Pickwick enthusiast
and the Vanity Fair enthusiast passed,
in the street without bowling.
The typical millionaire cannot see
that the freak entertainment places
him on ian intellectual footing with his
cook and. his butler, who would do
exactly the same If they possessed
the same means.
There is a law which many capable
thinkers seem unable to grasp, a law
regulating the advancement Of the
thing men call progress. At no spe-
cial time has the world progressed
more rapidly than at any other time.
Each new discovery brings with it
new mysteries. each step forward new
problems, each promise renewed dis
appointments.
