CHICAGO, Nov. 5--When the

convenes in San Francisco next
Tuesday, there will be % less
leagues represented then were rep
resented ut the 1914 convention.
Tn dwlndling OF the total OF AZ
leagues To - in one i2-mcnth marks
the lowest ebb in baseball since the
national pastime reached the estate
II held ,wo years ago.
Baseball men Of high and low de-
gree-the big fry and the small fry
who passed through here yester-
day to the coast meeting wore
gloomy looks whenever the 1915
season was mentioned. But they
all promised better things in 1916.
The general trend of opinion
seemed to he in favor of shorter
schedules for al the smaller
leagues and possibly suggestion
that even the big leagues shave a
few games from either end of the
1916 program.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Nov. g.
Recent announcement OF a proposed
racing circuit to include the prin.
cipal half-mile tracks in western
Michigan has elected SO many re-
sponses from horsemen that IL Is
now question OF deciding how
many there is room for and who
can come in. This part OF the
state has been neglected in provid.
Ing sport and earning capacity for
balf-mile tracks. There have been
Michigan circuits. but they have
tended To lead the horses down
through Detroit and Monroe into
Ohio and most OF them stayed there
until the fall fairs.
Interest proved TO be keen at the
competed and sharp contests were
the rule Owners Of trottcrs and
PAGERS who would like To race near
home have had To ship out of the
state 10 find races and still the
number OF horses in training does
not seem TO have diminished.
Ii is now proposed TO organize a
schedule OF race meetings to include
Michigan halfmile tracks only, with
easy shipments, light expenses and
a chance for purses sufficient TO
make the sport worth while. AS
r surances OF support or such a cir
cult is most encouraging and let

Alleged Tised Among Owls

Atlanta, November 15.-The
idea of an owl trying to mas
querade as a tiger was offensive
to the pathological and zoologi-
cal instincts of the Atlanta de-
tective department, and struck
them yesterday as being so uu-
reasonable that they arrested
the owl.
They also made a case against
the Owls club, or nest or what
ever it is called, and locked up
the cashier and bartender. The
detectives maintain that while in
natural history there is a vast
difference between an owl which
keeps its eyes open and a tiger
which is sometimes blind, that
in actual fact in Atlanta the
bird was acting entirely too
much like the animal.
