Wanted---One Steady Job
For Christmas Present
By Convict at Pen

Parole Officer Joseph +. Keller re-
Gently had published in various papers
list of parold men at the penitentiary
for whom the officials were trying to
procure positions, so they could be re.
leased before Christmas.
That there is II widespread interest
in trying to assist such an endeavor is
shown by letters received in the gov.
ernor's office. This morning one was
received from a prominent western
Oregon farmer who said he would be
glad to take three of the men who were
yet being held conditionally upon their
securing positions, so that they might
have q Christmas Of freedom, and also
have steady employment in the future.

Blossoms, and Ripe
and Green Berries On
One Branch at Xmas

Ripe red raspberries, green berries
and blossoms all ON one short branca
are exhibited in this city today by Il.
j. Mangus, of the firm Of Mangus
Bros, who pruued the stalk from his
red raspberry bushes iu his back yard
at his home east of this city on the
asylum road. In pite Of the cold weata'
or the ripe berries have an excellent
flavor and even the blossoms have an
odor Of June while the trees are being
decorated with holly for tomorrow
nights Christmas festivities,
The reason that the blossoms are
still coming at this time Of the year is
because no frost has yet arrived 10
stop the growth Of the buds and no
cold weather has checked the ripening
Of the green berries.

Effect on Coast League.

San Francisco, Dec. 23.-How will
the Coast league benefit from the base
ball peace pact9
That was the question uppermost in
the minds of baseball fans here today.
1t was generally conceded that while
the coast league may not derive an
actual cash benefit, elimination of
some of the spirit of commercialism
and feeling of unrest will react for the
good of the game.
One fan declared today the value of
the San Francisco club will be in
creased $4,000 ultimately. 1t would
seem the other clubs will prosper ac-
cordingly.
There is much speculation as to the
status of Jimmy Johnston of Oakland
and Joe Gedeon, of Salt Lake, both of
whom signed Federal contracts for
next year.
Some fans expressed the fear that
players who jumped from the Coast
league will not revert to it, because Of
the provision in the peace pact by
which the Federals retain control of
their players. 1t was thought the de-
funct independents will be able to dis
pose of them.

.CLUBS SCRAMBL|NG
FOR FEDERAL PLAYERS
Signing Of Peace Terms Starts
Rush to Grab Back Stars
from Outlaws

Cincinnati, Ohio, Dec. ga wild
scramble began today everywhere in
organized baseball for the cream of the
Federal league players With the
SIGNING of the peace protocol between
the Federals and organized baseball,
magnates throughout tine country are
on the quie vive, expecting to obtain
back the stars who jumped to the out
laws.
Most of the high class players of
major league calibre will go to Ameri-
can or National clubs. But minor
leagues will profit greatly by getting
the smaller fry. The Federals will as
sumo all contracts of their players who
will ne reinstated
One rumOr is that Benny Kauff, of
the Brooklyn Federals will 90 to the
New York Giants. The New York Am
orleans also will receive strength, it is
semi-officiallv known, from several
Federal stars.
Although a report from Texas stated
that Charles P. Taft, owner of the Chi
cago Cubs will not sell his club, irt is
regarded as certain that Chas. Weegh-
man will get it. Sale of the Cubs to
Weeghman and the st. Louis Ameri-
cans to Phil Ball, were agreed on In
the peace pact.
As previously reported, both major
leagues will assume the responsibility
of remunerating the Wards of Brook
lyn for their outlay.
The only remaining friction is over
the disposition of the Baltimore fran
chise. 1t has been generally conceded
that Jack Dunn, of Richmond, Virginia
would have the major right to the Bal
timore franchise when peace was estab-
lished. A committee will be appoint
ed soon with full powers to settle this
matter.
Phil Ball stated today that Fielder
Jones, manager of the st. Louis Fed
erals, will pilot the st. Louis Ameri-
cans. 1t is reported that Branch Rick
ey, whose contract expired last fall,
will rtire from the game.
