Apropos Of the discussion that IL now
going on all over the country upon the
subject OF Church Unity" we may well
ask the question printed at the head of
Omaha daily bee., 1914-07-25
BY EDGAR LUCIEN LARKIN.

Q.-How can It be hoped to determine
the limit of the universe, when, theo-
retically, there is no limit to the magpi-
tude of telescopes?
A.--Man, as at present developed men
tally, cannot think Of the meaning OF the
term limit OF the universe" because the
limit is space, and none is able to think
Of infinite space nor any other infinity.
To think of any infinity is to be pos
sessed of en- infinite mind But the high
est OF all humans high mathematicians,
do not by any means claim TO be of in
finite mind They-the few-haVs more
exalted concepts Of what infinity may be
than all humans combined, but modestiy
say that they cannot think infinity.
Theoretically and practically there is a
limit TO magnitude OF telescopes. II not,
man would be able TO make an infinite
telescope. But human genius is now
being taxed to its present limit Of skill
in making a mirror 100 inches in diameter,

FORKS fans
TO talk BASEBALL
Will Decide Soon After First Of
r Year Whether to Have a
Team.

Grand FORKS, N. D., Dec. 20
Shortly after the first of the year,
Grand Forks baseball enthusiasts will
be called together in a mass meeting
to discuss the proposition of a North
ern league team for 1915.
The Grand Forks baseball club has
been awarded a franchise in the new
twenty-year Northern, and it is up
to the fans of the city to say whether
or not they want it. They have until
February l to decide.
There is considerable sentiment in
favor of a team for next season, but,
before any definite steps are taken,
the officials Of the club want to know
where the money is coming from.
1t is, a we'll known fact that the To-
cal club lost heavily during the past
season. and the present officers will
be unable to stand another such siege.
1T will not cost so much to run a
team next year. The "limit' agree.
ments are to be strictly adhered to-,
and so no club can carry more than
twelve men and have a bigger payroll
than $1,4O0..

On the previous trip to San Antonio,
the Maps played but three exhibition
trips in Texas. This time they are
to cover practically the entire popu-
lated section of the state, visiting
seven or eight big cities. Among
them is Palestine, the home of Hyman
Pearlstone, known throughout the
American league as the Athletics
greatest rooter. Every year Pearl
stone, who pleads guilty to weighing
about 26O pounds, comes north and
makes a western trip with Connie
Mack's team. putting IN a uniform
every day and working out with the
Athletics prior to the games. 1t was
while he was on such a vacation last
summer that he induced Manager
Birmingham to consent to stop off in
his town and play two games. When
the Maps last trained in Texas, Pales.
tine was just one Of those towns
where the train stopped twenty min
utes for refreshments.

Because of the lack of numbers, no
schedule for a second team was ar
ranged and it is unlikely that the
squad will be divided at all. In fact,
the trip will be somewhat like that
of the Maps the last time they trained
in Texas, which was in 1904.
At that time any club that booked
an exhibition game with Cleveland
knew it was getting the Maps first
team, there being nc second except
in one instance, when both Fort Worth
and Dallas asked for games on the
same day. The first team was sent
to Dallas, while the late Addie Joss
managed the outfit that was sent to
Fort Worth. 1t had Harry Bemis be-
hind the bat, Joss on first base, Dusty
Rhoades at second, Tony Pastor at
short, Bill Schwartz at third. Claude
Rossman played center, while the left
and right fields and the box were
loked after by Pitchers Hickey, Curtis
and Jesse Stovall. Bad as that team
was, it won, Alto 8.
