Just why the Federal league picked

league upon which to make its grab
Is hard to explain. but when the de-
sertions of Falkenbefg, Kaler and
Blanding all come at once it made an
awful hole in the Cleveland roster of
players. What the loss of one pitcher
for even a part of the season means
to a club has been already demon
strated in the case of Wood of the
Red Sox, but for club to lose at
one fell swoop three such dependable
pitchers as Falkenberg. Kaler and
Handing means task in team re-
construction which seems almost i'm
possible of accomplishment
However, any man who can do as
much with the Maps as "Dode" Bir-
mingham did last year, when he gave
the Forest City the best ball team it

HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF.

With regard to the officers OF the
English army who are manifesting
their reluctance to take part in any
hostile operations against their fel.
low .countrymen in Ulster, 1t Is well
to remember that Admiral Augustus
Keppel, younger son Of the second
Earl of Albermarle, steadfastly refus-
ed to, take any part In the American
War of Independence, because he was
convinced In his own mind that the
British cause was an unjust one, and
that the revolving American colonies
had just grounds for their resistance.
Numbers of officers in the British
army and navy followed his example
at that time, which did not prevent
him from being raised later to the
peerage as Viscount Keppel, and to
his being intrusted with the supreme
control of the British navy as First
Lord of the Admiralty, after the con-
clusion of peace and the declaration
of Observation-Disclosures Post.
