(By .Wagner)
 The National league is receiving a lot of harsh criticism for it's failure to come to the rescue of the Interna- tiona1 league, an organization which has borne the brur1t of the fight against the Federals. Before last season started the International had the third best league in the country competition with the eFedera1s in Baltimore and Buffalo last season gave the InternationaIs a body blow.
 They have stuck to organized ball in the present crisis and all they have received from the National league was conversation. Now when they have a chance. to keep their league together by transferring the Jersey City club to the Bronx, the Giants step in and block the plan. The pro- posed park is six miles away from. the Polo grounds and would not interfere with the Giants. attendance Such tactics as those practiced by the New York nagnates are making minor lea guers wonder if it pays after all to be loyal to organized ball.
 The Brooklyn Federals are going to train in a place ten miles from a rail- road station and three miles from a telegraph wire. Pitcher Dick Ru- dolph of the Braves says they must be going there for secret practice.
 The Federals tried to get Pitcher Baum gardner away from the St Louis Browns but he refused to fall for the outlaws.
 The Brooklyn FederaIs have offer ed the use of their field to the Ford ham football management for the big games-next season. The offer has not yet been accepted because Paul Lannin, a son of Joseph Lannin. the Red Sox owner. is prominent in Ford

Pelican and Elaminao.

The hook of the pelican's bill is red and undoubtedly the fable that the pels 1can feeds its young wfth blood from it's own breast originated in the bird's habit of pressing the bill upon the breast in order to more easiiy empty the pouch, when the red tip might be mistaken for blood. Another explana~ ton is that the pelican became confus- ed with the faniingo which dfsehargeE into the mouth of its young a secretion which in color resembles blood.

IN NEW CASTLE COUNTY
Levy Courts Refusal to Submit to In

Chamber OF Commerce having twice sug-
gested TO the Levy Court that the affairs
of the county be investigated. and the
Levy Court having refused the sugges-
tion, a lively fight among some OF the
Republicans in this county is threatened.
The members OF the Levy Court say the
those opposed to the Levy Court to fight
their battles; the Chamber OF Commerce
denies this. The reason given for the
proposed investigation is that for some
time the county was unable to pay it's
bills and that an investigation would re-
lIeYe the Levy Court from euS,eism If it
were found that body was not responsible.
In its last reply the Levy Court asserts
that the investigation was suggested to
the Chamber of Commerce not to help
but 10 harass.
Probably year ago there was a fight
over the construction of the Third street
bridge, and since then there has been all
kinds OF trouble. AT the last session OF
the Legislature an effort was made to
pass a law changing the entire Levy
r Court system and friends OF the Levy
Court say Governor Charles r. Miller
was In favor of this new law other Re
publleans took a hand and defeated the
project.

sons are behind the investigation plan

Republican organization has not only
dewended the Levy Court. but has invited
