In getting Seaton the Feds ignored

The acquisition % Seaton was a

BAN JOHNSON HAS DOUBLE.
President Of Pittsburgh Feds Bothers
the Scribes.

the Seribes.
Baseball writer's who attended Sat
urday's Federal league meeting were
amazed to see Ban Johnson conversing
earnestly with Ned Hanlon i'm quiet
corner of the Chicago Athletic clubs
reading room.
Later they saw Johnson take the
arm of Edward Steininger and otto
Stifel, Federal moguls from Is. Louis,
and lead them off To quiet nook for
what appeared to be 4 serious chat.
When Johnson i'm turned talked pri-
vately with Harry Goldman OF Balti-
more, Ed Gates of indianapolis and
Fred Bramley of Cleveland. and then
shook hands in hearty fashion with
President WeeShman Of the Chicago
Feds, the scribes made haste to get
the big baseball story of the winter
Che news that organized baseball was
buying cut the Feds and Ban John
son was the agent.
whats Ban Johnson up to-" asked
one of the excited scribos of President
Jim Gilmore OF the Feds.
"Ban Johnson!" exclaimed Gilmore,
"Where is he?"
The scribe pointed him out.
Gilmore stepped little nearer the
supposed Johnson and looked him
carefully over.
"rhal isn't Johnson" he announced.
ITS William Kerr, baclcr Of the
Pittsburgh Feds. He's Fan Johnson's
double"
The resemblance Kerr bears t.
Johnson is remarkable. Ban is a little
taller and heavier. Their features
are very similar and when Kerr walks
across the room and anyone who has
seen Johnson walk would swear the
American league magnate was pass
ing.
IT guess I'll make good use of my
supposed resemblance to Johnson ard
20 out and sign up a few American
league players for my team" said
Kerr.

WOMEN ARE IN BIG
DEMAND IN AUSTRALIA.
But They Are Wanted For Servants
Rather Than For Wives.

London, Feb. 2l.-The long cherish
ed theory that the worlds surplus fem
mime population could bc married Off
il it could bc persuaded to migrate To
the Antipodes is not borne out in a re-
port of the Dominions Royal commits
sion upon the demand for women in
Australia. Women are wanted badly in
the great island continent, but not SO
much for marriage as for domestic SER
wants.
So great is the demand, according 60
the report, that many Of the girls sail
ing from England have been engaged
by wireless as cooks and servants IN
Australian households before their
steamer reached port. In some cases
men have been so hard up for cooks
that they have gone out in tugs TO
meet incoming vessels 10 make sure
that they have the first pick Of girls
seeking employment. The first few
days following the landing of the inn
migrants resembles an old hiring fair.
The employers bcsiege the labor bur
eau IN hundreds and in Il short time
every newcomer desiring domestic
work is pretty certain to have secured
a situation at wages more than double
the sum which she could command in
England.
The commission learned of COM
plants that the scarcity of servants IN
Australia involves such a burden IN
housewives that it was affecting seri-
ously their health and even acting os
a check upon the much desired in
crease Of the population.
