MILE. DAZIE.

New York, March 31.-"We were
married right here in New York
about a year and half ago, and
have been living as man and wife
ever since," said Mile. Dazie, the ia
nous danseuse, in admitting the
truth of the rumor that has recently
been circulated in the theatrical
world to the effect that Dazie had
married Cornelius Fellowes, son of
the late millionaire horseman of that
name. Mrs. Fellowes has not even
thought of quitting the stage be-
cause of her marriage. She said
that several of their friends knew
of the marriage and that no par
ticular attempt had been made to
keep the wedding a secret. Mile
Dazie added that she was very fond
of married life.

hard. But the other eight are holding
out. They want to see what the Fed
will do this season. They believe the
Feds viii fail. If the Feds don't fail
and show up rather strong at the end
of the season, the anti-peace crowd
most likely will join the others. And
the olive branch will be extended.
The Feds cannot be expected TO
clear expenses they will be doing
remarkably well-and that's even
make any profit this year. IF they,
more than many hope to do. But by
surviving the year, they will become
an established big league and that
will mean they'll begin to DO prof.
liable business in 1915.
Their lineups this year aren't COM
posed of all stars. But they look good
enough for any new league. The Feds
have some promising youngsters that
ought to develop into stars before the
year is out. When the contracts of
some of the organized baseball stars
expire at the end of this season, ths
Feds will begin little dickering with
them, and if their bankrolls remain
unlimited, it's cinch they'll grab
off pretty generous assortment
OF course, when the time comes for
the absorption of the Federals by Or
ganized baseball-at the Federals' own
terms, mind you-it will be necessarv
to make some radical changes in the
Federal league circuit. Neither Chi
cago nor St. Louis can support three
major league clubs. Kansas City does
not size up as major league city. In
dianapolis may and may not support
a major league club. Therefore,
changes will be necessary in the cir
cult.
Baseball sharps for many years
| have declared that a third league
would rise up because there were too
many unprotected cities-that is large
cities where only one major league
club existed. When the Feds and or
ganized baseball merge it's quite like
ly that the Chicago, st. Louis and
Kansas City and indianapolis fran
chises may be transferred to such cit
les as Detroit, Cincinnati and Wash
! ington.
Some there are who say that there
isn't room for third league. The
present season will answer this ques-
ton. If there isn't room for three eight
club leagues, it's quite possible there'll
be room for two IL club leagues. And
that's just what may happen before
the 1915 season is under way.
