Bar TO BASEBALL
Many Games Scheduled Have Had
to Be Called Because of Jupi-
ter Pluvius.

During the last few weeks the jin>
has pursued the American League
players and the last few days they
have had to pass up many a good
sized crowd on account of the almost
%incessant rains. which have made the
diamonds 50 soft and muddy that rea|
ball can hardly be played. Not only
this, practice games have had to be
called off. Several Of the leaugers
are suffering with tonsilitis and pneu'
monia has gripped three or four of
the standbys.
Association Has Troubles, Too.
The Association has had about the
same fate as the Americans. Few
days have seer all the teams in ac-
ton and during the past week and
a half only about three-ffths Of the
games have been played that were
scheduled. *

the outlook was very bad for any
games for the first three days OF this
week.
Federal League Is Scoring.
The Federal league, despite the
shouts of organized baseball, has had
a few hearings and has shown that it
can play ball. Some of it's teams
have demonstrated that their batters
can connect up with the sphere and
that the pitchers can slowly and sure
ly fan the other batters that come
up to the plate.
Good Crowds Follow Feds.
In nearly every city the Feds have
drawn extra crowds. Much of this
desire to see the new league is due
to the fact of the belllgerent attitude
of the National American combina-
ton. The crowds have shown as
much enthusiasm over the Feds as
they ever could produce for the other
two teams combined.
h'Litigation Continues.
Battles in the courts between the
organized ball leagues and the rene
gades, as the Feds are sometimes
termed, continues. Judgments and
verdicis are given. Reversals and Or
ders from the courts higher up have
been secured. No n seems to know

Glendale, n. D., May 1.-THE peO-
pie of Ellendale today broke the rec
ord in the way of securing a hearing
before the state railroad commission
in the matter OF a new depot for this
place, andVIhere is no question but
it was a winner with both the rail-

officials.
Hold Meeting in Hotel Dickey.
Instead Of holding the hearing in
a public hall as usual, the local CON-
nittee arranged an elegant banquet
at the Dickey hotel, at which the
railroad mon, commissioners and
business men were present, and after
the cigars were passed Senator
Barnes announced the object Of the
gathering in kindly greeting and
turned the gathering over to Presi-
dent Stutsman of the Railroad Com
mission.
Stutsnan Presided.
After felicitous and witty introduce
tory remarks President Stutsman
called upon the Glendale committee
to state their case and then the rail-
road officials replied. The arguments
for a new depot were %forcefully pre-
scented. and, coming after the ele.
CANT dinner, seemed overpowering to
the Milwaukee railroad people, who
gracefully admitted all the arguments
as unanswcrable, but said they were

Jack McAuIiffe Is Asked to Dig Up

Frenchman.
Bv Damon Runvon.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2O.-Jack Nc
Auliffe. the only specimen OF
the retired and undefeated
champion that we have under glass
since the Fourth Of What Happened
at-Reno, has a strange assignment,
II reports from England are to be
believed. Jack has been engaged by
an English publication to dig up a
man who can and will lick the day
lights out of Georges Carpenter. the
French fury, who trimmed Jardiniere
Wells, the British mushmelon.
The English have finally become
eXasperated over the international
epidemic OF beating up the Jardiniere
and they are DESTROYS Of avenging
his frequent wrongs. They do not
seek a man to lick the Americans
who licked Wells because they can
not remember the names of all the
gents on this side of the water who
dld the same, and besides that would
take too long, but they are anxious
to have Georges walloped and are
willing to pay money to see ii done
1t is stipulated that the walloper
must be an Englfshman, although It
is understood that if Jack can not
ind an Englishman, an Irishman. or
a Welshman. or Scotchman or. in
tact, most anybody will do. as long
as he can wipe out the French insult
to English pride.
There is really nothing in the ar
ticles that prohibits McAuliffe from
knocking a few "hs" off an Amer
lean and using him, but the Eng
ltsh preference is naturally for an
Englishman. So Jack is taking a
look around him over in London
and getting some publicity and so
forth.
