Washington, D. C.. Aug 1S - Women will take a prominent part in the 49th annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, which will be held iii Washington September 27th to october 2d.
 Four organizations of women al lied with the Grand Army of the Re public will participate in the en- camDment. These are the Womans Corps, the Auxiliary to the Sons of Veterans, the Ladies of the G. A. R. and the Daughters of veterans. Many thousands of members of the four organizations will be in Wash ington during the encampment and the grand review, which is to re- produce, as far as possible, the review of union troops in Washing ton by President Johnson and Gen. eral Grant fifty years ago at the close of the civil war.
 Of the organizations of women connected with the Grand Army the largest and most important Is the Woman's Relief Corps.
 The Woman's Relief Corps is auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic, and its only auxiliary. The Ladies of the G. A R. and the Daughters of Veterans are 'inde- pendent bodies, auxiliary to no or ganization.
 The Woman's Relief Corps is the largest organization of women in the world under one eligibility clause, and one motto. It now numbers 167,O0O, with department organizations in 41 states, divided among 2,6O1 corps, as the local or ganizations are known. Besides these there are 37 detached corps which thrive in 10 southern and two western states where there are no departmnt organizations.
 The Woman's Relief Corps is the greatest philanthropic, charit- able, and patriotic organization of women in the world.
 It was organized at Denver, Col.' in 1888, in response to the call of the veterans for the organiza- tion of women that would be aux Hilary to them and which would meet with them at national en- campments. and assist them in the tremendous work which was be- coming burdensome to the Grand Army, that of helping to care for tho aged veterans and their depen- dent widows and children. Pen sions were very small at that time and the hardshiDs of war were be- ginning to tell on the veterans who suffered from wounds and other

A VERY VIVID
 IMAGINATION

A man and woman, tourists, were standing in the Skagway POstoffice one day recently gazing at the glauer on the tou of the high mountain to the south of the Burro creek canyon. Just at that time II. J. Lynch stepped in to get his mail and hearing the lady ask her companion if he thought the glacier was covered with snow volunteered the Information that there was less snow on 1t now than there had been for several yaars; he also told them that in the late summer and fall glaciers usually "calved," or 5loughed : off big chunks of ice that rolled down the mountainside until they lodged against some obstruction to their progress or were broken into smau pieces by the rugged descent. Turn- ing to open his lock box he wRa suddenly startled by hearing the lady exclaim: Look! Look! l gsa an iceberg rolling down the maun- tain now"
 r. such was the case, however, it had passed from sight before Mr. Lynch could turn around, for up- on his doing 50 and looking in the direction in which she pointed the phenomenon which she described had vanished.

fairs are not all they should be, it is essential that at all times the people be of good cheer.
 "The preservation of the nor als of q people as well as of all army is the most essential when the strain is greatest. Optimism is necessary to outride every storm. The surest way to keep the heart in a people is to have them as- semble now and then and submerge the worries of the routine life, to mingle and touch shoulders. They learn to see more in life the next day, and to return to the attack with great Yigor.
 The Pioneers do a splendid work in preserving the recollections of those who opened the way into this region. By reason of the toll and daring of the early corners, thous- ands now enjoy homes in the enorth- land, and tens of thousands, far and wido. over the world participate in the far-flung wealth Of Yukon.

The peace protocol ends a war that
began to attract attention just two
years ago this month. The Federal
League had been in existence then a
year, but not until Joe Tinker, unable
to reach terms with the Brooklyn Ma
tionals, had agreed to join the Chi
cago F'ederaIs, did it look serious.
Tinker induced several players from
both rival leagues to join the new
league and its organizers succeeded
in attracting additional capitalists as
hackers.
The new league then expanded. put
ting teams in Brooklyn and st.
Louis. in addition to its former cir
cult and one by one gathered into it's
fold some star ball players.
The legality of contracts brought
the fight between the Federal and or
ganized ball into the courts in several
cases, the climax coming with the
antitrust suit, filed before Judge Lam
dis, about a year ago. This case
came to trial last January, but

a decision and some baseball men

FEDERALS TO TAKE CARE

New York, Dec. 16.-When
asked the terms of settlement be-

baseball President Gilmore said
here today:
you could not expect me to say
anything about that right now.
There is only one thing upon which
L know we will insist. Every ball
player who came with us and thus
brought themselves under the ban
of organized baseball will be pro-
tccted. The settlement may mean
that the Federal league will pass
out of existence and it may not.
All that will be up to Il committee
of the different factions"
Harry F. Sinclair said:

the sentiment of all the owners of

LAJoIE TO GET INDIANS?
New Syndicate Said To Be After the
Cleveland Club.

Cleveland, O., Dec. 16.-Napoleon
Lajoie, king of second basemen, and
now a member of the Athletics, will
become the manager of the Cleveland
Indians, if a deal being negotiated by
a syndicate of Cleveland capitalists,
headed by Wilson NJ. Shear, promoter,
to buy the club. goes through.
And there is pretty good chance
of the purchase being made, as mem
bers of the syndicate have expressed
themselves as satisfied with the terms
asked by the bankers committee
which is in charge of the financial af-
fairs of c. w. Somers, present owner
of the club.
Shear has been in conference with
Lajoie and it is understood satisfac-
tory arrangements can be made
whereby Lajoie will obtain his release
from the Athletics if the syndicate
makes the purchase. Shear already
has conferred with the bankers com
mittee and has arranged to meet Pres
ident Johnson of the American league
when the latter returns to Cleveland
the latter part of the week, to
straighten out the local baseball stu
alton.
