'NORTHENDERS
WILL PROTEST

The city council last week
agreed with the people in the
North End school section that
the city would assume the diff
ference In the cost of laying a
six and 16-inch water main for
the big water district. This would
mean the city would agree to pay
about s11 900 of the $4,000 dis
trict cost.
When Judge Stiles fixed up the
resolution this morning he pro-
vided his own pet hobby that the
city will pay this as a rebate to
the property owners after they
have paid the assessment in case
the city at some future time votes
bonds for the purpose.
This promises to defeat the
whole project and will bring the
school section to the city hall
again to protest.

Right to "Beef."

After orbing these records one must admit that there seems to be some justification for the continual co-raking of the old timers that baseball today ain't what it uster be when we was young fellers."
 John M. Ward, now business mana ger of the Brooklyn Federal League team, pitching for Providence in 1879, worked in 65 games for an av- craze of TOP. James E. Whitney, of Boston, led the National League pitchers in 1883 with an average of .6S3 for 62 games.
 Bill" Hutchison, of Chicago, was the last of the truck horse" pitch CTS of the early days in 1891, he av- eraged .696 for 63 games.
 In the days before the Brotherhood war-which resulted in the bettering of players conditions-most of the major league clubs carried only two regular pitchers. Some, during cer- tain portions of the season, carried only one, an infielder or outfielder re- lieving him occasionally. On these occasions the regular pitcher got a "rest" by taking the place of the fielder who substituted for him.
 The best record for the number of games pitched in one season, since 1891. was hung up in 1908 by "Bid Ed' Walsh, of the White SoX, when he hurled in B games, with a winning percentage of .727 Jack Chesbro, the former New York Yankee pitcher, fig ured in 53 games in 1904 and grabbed off .774. Joe McGinnity, then with the Giants, pitched 51 games in 1904 and finished with record of .S14.

REGULAR MEETING
 OF TRADES COUNCIL,
Will Decide at Next Meeting Whether OF Not to Have Later Closing
 Hour for Barber Shops.

The meeting of the Central Trades Council last night was one of the most largely attended of any session in quite time While the business transacted was of a routine nature, it was of such importance to the mem- bership that great interest was mani fested. Several new delegates were seated. The committee Investigating the differences between s. H. Holland and the labor unions reported and the matter was amicably adjusted.
 The recent survey of the city by Dr. J. H. Hutchinson, under aus pices of the City Beautiful Club, was discussed, and the sentiment of the organization was not in accordance with ideas entertained therein, as it was deemed impracticable to place them in operation.
 : Whether later closing hour for the union barber shops is desired, will be taken up by the local unions and reported at the next meeting.

DEMOCRATIC CLUB
 GUSTS BOSS MURPHY

New York, March 1.-The busting of Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tam many Hall, and several of his fol- lowers from membership in the Democratic club, created stir in political circles here today. The ostensible reason given during the heated debate over the matter at the club last night was that Murphy was behind in his dues.
 Judge Edward F. O'Dwyer, presi- dent of the club, who has been lead ing the fight against Murphy, intro- duced a resolution calling for the eli imitation of the Tammany leader and the others, but this resolution was not formally adopted, as the point was raised and upheld by the presid- ing officer that under the rules the men were automatically dropped for non-payment of dues for two months.
 Thomas F. Smith, secretary of Tammany Hall, appealed against the ruling, and rendered check for the dues. When the check was refused he asked for a vote. Seventeen mem- bers of the board of governors were present. They decided against the appeal, 10 to z.
