prominent men are exertipg all of
their efforts to have the minimum
wage law passed for the women and
girls of Illinois, or, in other words,
they are trying to put it over the
bosses. We must be thankful to
these men for their work in behalf
of the women and girls of Illinois, but
somehow or other they seem to be
unaware of the fact that there is not
a man in existence who can conquer
that great evil-wealth.
1t has been repeatedly tried. Com
missions and other investigating bod
les have been formed and the million
aires on the witness stand just fool
around and kid" their interrogators.
The men who own these depart
ment stores and the other low wage
houses have the iron heart and hand,
because the honest man cannot con-
troll such evil conditions as exist in
these places.
Should the legislature pass the
minimum wage law the department
stores would discharge just enough of
their help to make the payroll the
same. So it is just matter of choice

Justice as such naturally arises
from Interpretation of the law-the

If claw was law-the law that

meaning and sound it would have!
But, alas, the law that is dictated by

to undertake such a burden, for, as
rule, moneyed ones are composing

there is an exception, it is generally
corrupted and converted to obedience

the effect that the Baltimore team was
about to disband. President Gilmore
of the Federal League, in a state
ment made the following denial
"These reports are all rot. and I
wish to brand them as base ngments
of imagination. The Baltimore team
is undergoing a process Of elimination
purely for the purpose of placing the
strongest team possible there"
President Gilmore mentioned the
names of several wealthy men who are

class baseball might be appreciated
next year should il be deemed advis-
able TO reorganize the league. Pres
ent prospects along this line, how
ever, are most gloomy. Not one OF
the present managers is willing TO
take chance again. They are
agreed on the point that Wilmington

for the price
The financial question has never
worried the Wilmington and the
Church Leagues Having only their
batteries to pay, the All-Wilmington-
ians usually collected enough money
at the games to pay this expense and
furnish the playing necessities. Any
shortage was made up by the organi-
cations backing tho clubs Not hav-
ing any players to pay, the Church
Leagues always collected enough
money TO pay its umpires and pur-
chase balls. etc Only the Del-Mars
were ruined financially.

more chances to show their appreci-
alton of tho Del-Mars. double-headers

LAYENnER IN HALL OF FAME.

Two no-hit games have been pitch
ed in the National League this year.
both at the Polo Grounds, New York.
One was by Rube Marquard. then OF
the Giants, last April The other
was a rascally performance by Jim
my Lavender of the Cubs. when he
beat the Giants on Tuesday i'm the
first game of a double-header by a
score Of to 0.
Only two men reached FIRST base
on Lavender on Tuesday -one on a
base ON balls and one on an error by
the shortstOp.
Jimmy Lavender has not been much
of a pitcher this year-iust about
the sort of pitcher Rube MarQuard
has been. Until Tuesdays game Law
ender had won eight and lost nine
games, and there had been no inti-
nation all season that he had any
intention of crowding his way into
the list of no-hit immortals.
As is the case in most no-hit games
Lavender's entire gang played smart
baseball.
